THE MACHINE AND MIR. sEwALL.

"Thp machine first, Old Glory
afterwards"
This is the Interpretation placed
by the Advertiser upon the en-
doIsement of Harold M. Sewall for
governor of Hawaii. We believe it
is lie, and grossly misrepresepts
the sentiment of those foremost in
desiring MIR. Sewall's appointment.
Old Glory signifies unity, and
the committee" has made the first
move towards bringing our people
onto the American plane by giving
their support to one who is entire
ly free from the local alliances of
the past. Not one word can be
said against President Dole's capa
city for the governorship. He is
an honest man ard a gentleman.
But he knows, his Cabinet knows,
and the people know that If he
were appointed to serve as govern
or for the next four years, be could
not - nor could any man who has
taken part in local politics--break
down the mixture of racial and pc
litical i'll will that the events of re.
cent years have created.
1t is absolute rot to state that
any discourtesy has been shown
Mr.. Dole by any of those who
stood Loyalty by the republic.
Is it any discourtesy to Presi
dent Mckinley that there are al
ready candidates in the field for
the next republican nomination ?
Must the people who support other
men wait until the 4th of March
1901 before they state their OPT.
Mons ?
1t cannot be said that an at
tempt is being made to put Presi
dent Dole on the shelf. When an e.
nexation became reasonable pro
liability, the people began figuring
on the future. And they were
right in doing so. While we are
not on the inside with the horrid
machine" our contemporary must
give that organization the credit of
making no move until the an
nouncemeDt was received that Mr..
Dole was given first place among
local men, upon the commission
that is to make new laws. Mr.. Dole
has not been shel,ed. No fair in.
depreciation can put this construc.
ton upon the prevailing senti'
ment of the country. If he should
resign from the commission posi-
bly, the machine" might change
its course and public sentiment
might. 1t is not feature of Am.
erican politics to give one man
everything.
The Advertiser says only a
fraction of the people have joined
the movement for Mr.. Sewall.
Which end of the fraction, the big
or the little one In attacking the
"fraction," our contemporary has
sowed the seed for a fight over
what would otherwise have passed
along as foregone and acceptable
conclusion.

1t is said the "new machine" is

pile ?"

Declares surgeons Are Brutal.

New York, Sept 1.-Two carloads of
sick soldiers of the Ninth New York
volunteers arrived yesterday from
Camp Thomas, Chickamauga. The men
were convalescent from rheumatism,
malaria and typhoid fever and were in
fairly good condition. Orderly Robert
Stanley in whose charge the men were.
was especially bitter against some Of
the surgeons at Chickamauga. He said
that they did not show any respect for
the dead. The orderly declared that
when Private Charles Num- died be-
tween 7 and s o'clock last Saturday
evening, his body was not permitted to
rest in quiet. He declared that before
10 p. m. the surgeons were at work cut
ting up his body to perform an autopsy.
The orderly also cited the case Of
Private Graham and declared that an
autopsy was being made on his body
an hour after his demise.

Alden TO Camp wikotr.

New York, Sept. There is no
change in the program of the govern
ment as to getting all of the volun-
teers out of Camp WiIoff just as fast
as they can be sent away. Some time
today the Thirty-third Michigan will
depart for home. The regiment will
muster about 725 men when they leave
camp, and the sick will be sent away
as fast as possible afterward. 1t is pos
sible that a hospital train of sick Mich
igan troops may leave the camp about
Saturday The Thirty-fourth Miehi-
gan will leave on Friday. This will
bring the list of volunteers here down
considerably. Those of the Michigan
regiments too sick to go with their
comrades on either the troop trains or
on the hospital trains will be furlough-
ed home just as rapidly as their con-
dition will permit. Both regiments will
be mustered out 60 days hence.

GEN. DE BoIsDEFFRE RESIGNS,

The Head OF tho French Army Forced

Revision of the Case OF Captain
Dreyrus WIN speedily Follow.
Paris. Sept Lieutenant Colonel
Henry. who was arrested on Tuesday
for forging letter in the Dreyfus case,
committed suicide in his cell in the
fortress at Mont valerian yesterday,
He had secreted a razor in his valise
and with this he cut his throat.
While en- route TO the fortress he was
allowed to visit his home to secure a
change Of clothing. The officer accom-
panying him was under orders not 70
lose sight OF him for a moment and
therefore he could not see his Wife
alone. All three proceeded TO his bed
room TO get the necessary clothing.
Henry then clasped his wife In his
arms and exclaimed: My conscience is
pure and free from every sting This
exclamation Is much commented upon,
as going to show that he may possibly
have forged the letter under orders
from his superiors.
Just before being ordered taken TO the
fortress Lieutenant Colonel Henry was

pressed with questions, and finally con-
fessed that he was the author of let
ter which was one of three connected
with the conviction of Dreyfus. The
scene Of his avowal was most painful.
When he saw it was useless TO deny
further, his tongue grew too thick for
his mouth, and he was unable to speak
1t was feared that he would have an
apopleptic stroke.
During the recent lola trial Henry
accused Colonel Picquart Of classifying
kilograms A duel followed, In which
Henry was wounded.
The next scene occurred in the cham
Der Of deputies, where Colonel Picquart
proclaimed the letter forgery and as
a result, was arrested while Henry's
villainy was rewarded by his being APP
pointed Colonel Picquert's successor in
the intelligence department.
1t is now evident that Henry forged
the letter with the express object OF
paralyzing Colonel Picquart's efforts
TO expose Major Count Esterhazy and
to get a revision Of the Dreyfus case.
General lie Mouton de BOisdeffre,
chief OF the general staff of the French
army, has rendered his resignation to
the government. General De Boisdef-
fire, in his letter Of resignation, ex-
plains that he resigns owing to his mis-
placed confidence in Lieutenant Colo
mel Henry, which led him to present as
genuine what was forged evidence. M.
Cavaignac, the minister OF war. In re-
ply asked General De Boisdeffre to re-
main TO "see Justice rendered In the
matter" General DE Boisdeffre thank
ed M. Cavaignac for proofs of his es-
TEEN, but persisted in his resignation.
1t is reported that at yesterdays
cabinet meeting the ministers admitted
that revision Of the Dreyfus trial was
absolutely unavoidable and a public
announcement that the ministry had
decided to initiate such revision lis
expected soon.
1t Is alleged that several minister's
including M Brisson, the premier, M
Maruejouls minister Of commerce. ana
M Trouillot, minister of the colonies
demanded revision and the immedi-
ate suppression of several staff Of
ficers M Cavaignac, however, re-
manned firm, opposing this course on
the ground that Lieutenant Colonel
Henry's forgery has not altered the
case as affecting Dreyfus' guilt.
The Temps asserts that the disclos-
ures made to the ministers have de-
cided the minister of war to place Ma
jor Count Esterhazy on the retired list.
II would be impossible to describe the
sensation, that has thrilled Paris, an2
it is not unlikely that at the next meet
ing OF the chamber of deputies the
government will be defeated.
