SATURDAY NIGHT.
Christmas Eve Like We had 1t Way
Down East.

Saturday night was the busiest one
in the history of Honolulu. There
was jam in all of the main thorough
fares, and il was like elbowing
through Broadway to get into some of
the stores at all. Police had frequent
~ to clear the corners and guard pc
destrians from the wheels of vehicles.
There was drinking and noise-far
too much of both. This was kept up
to late hour No special class was
immune. Civilians, soldiers. sailors,
and all were, more or less, into it. At
late hour there was promise of
trouble between sailors and native po-
lice at the corner of Fort and Hotel
streets. The appearance of the mount
ed patrol, however. men who could
talk to the "boys" in English, had the
effect of quieting matters.
With the rush in town, the theaters
open. the hundreds of family Christ
mas trees and receptions. the dinners
and dances at the hotels. and the doz-
en- other things going on. the night
was restless, metropolitan one.

QUOTE M'K|NLEY'S WORDS
FILIPINOS SPRING THE RECORD
At PARIS.
Protest Against the Cesson of the
Philippines and Claim They were
Promised independence.

PARIS, December 16.-Agoncillo,
the representative of Aguinaldo, the
Filipino leader, has lodged a strongly
worded protest with the commission,
which thus becomes part of the rec
ords. 1t begins with saying that "the
very noble and gallant General Agui-
naldo, president of the Philippine re-
public" had honored him with "the
post of official representative to the
very honorable President of the Unit
ed States" Agoncillo then reviews the
case at length, saying that at the time
of "imploring the armed cooperation
of Aguinaldo and other Philippine
chiefs. the commander of the Petrol,
Captain Wood, in Hongkong, before
the declaration of war, and American
Consuls General, Pratt, in Singapore,
Wildman at Hongkong, and Williams
at Cavite. acting as the international
agents of the great American nation
at moment of great anxiety, offered
to recognize the independence of the
Filipinos nation
The protest recites how Admiral
Dewey. by numerous acts is alleged TO
have recognized the autonomiSts SOW
ereignty of the Filipinos. and i'm pct
uresque language calls for the fulfill
ment of these promises and a fulfill
ment of the solemn declaration made
by the illustrious William Mckinley.
that in going to war he was not guild
ed by the intention of extension of
territory but only by the principles Of
humanity. by the duty of liberdtiu@ Il
tyrannized people and by the desire
to proclaim the inalienable rights,

tries released from the yoke of Spain.

THE TOBACCO TAX.

The North Carolina and Virginia
tobacco manufacturers are making
a strong fight against the retro
active clause of the proposed tobacco
tax increase, and with some hope of
success. The Winston manufacture
ers we believe were the first to take
action towards protesting against
this measure and have been in the
very front of the fight all along and
will deserve much of the credit if the
efforts to eliminate this Objectionable
feature are successful. Whatever the
result may be they will have meriUed
the praise due to earnest effort.
Referring to the clause of the pro-
posed law that is meeting with so
much opposition, the Raleigh Post
says:
'But the nefarious, if not uncon-
stitutional feature of the act under
consideration is it's retroactive feat
ure, levying an increased tax upon
the tobacco already manufactured
We believe this feature unconstitu-
tional; but whether SO or not it Is an
outrageous imposition on the manu-
facturer as we'll as the dealer, the
first having bought and manufac-
tured his stock on a basis of the
existing tax, and sold it TO the
dealer who bought and handles it on
the same basis"
The Post adds: "There is a vast
deal Of mean advantage going to be
taken of this war by the friends of
monopoly and those who have
fattened on the protective revenue
and tariff laws, to fasten unjust
measures, revenue and financial, on
the country. And this purpose is
we'll Illustrated in the proposed to
baceo tax. We hope those who are
fighting the outrage may succeed, at
least in having the retroactive feat
ure eliminated.''

Why France Protests.
From the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta Journal
The reason for the strong anti
American feeling in France at this
time is not far to seek.
1t is plainly set forth by the Lon
don correspondent of the New York
Financial Chronicle, who says that
French investments in Spain amount
to $9OO,OOO,OOO The correspond
ent adds:
1.-THE bankruptcy of the Spanish
government, followed probably by a
further great depression of paper
money and wide spread failures in
commercial and financial circles,
would infict terrible loss upon
French investors" This is true, but
the French investors took the
chances when they put their money
into Spanish bonds and enterprises
If they lose by reason of Spain's
national incompetency and brutali-
ty, it is their misfortune, and they
can blame nobody but Spain and
themselves. We cannot time our
national policy to suit French specu
lators, and we will proceed with the
business in hand without regard to
French investments or French snarls.

LAW OF BLOCKADE.

The New York World gives the fol-
lowing summary of the law govern
ing blockades, which is of special
interest just now, as our battleships
are maintaining blockade of the
harbor of Havana and also of
Manila, unless the latter has already
succumbed to the hot fire of our feet
on the one side and the attack of the
Philippine insurgents on the other.
The summary liz as follows and plans
the law in the nutshell:
I. Blockades must be effectively
proclaimed SO that ships of all
nationalities may be duly notified of
such blockade.
2. Ships upon the sea at the time
blockades are proclaimed must be
halted before they reach the waters of
the harbors seized. Ships at anchor
in such harbors must withdraw as
soon as blockades are proclaimed
without putting off or taking on adj
ditional cargo.
8. Ships failing to regard notices
of blockade are liable to capture
upon seeking to enter forbidden har-
bors.
4. In case of capture both ships
and cargoes are subject to confisca-
ton, but neither men nor officers, if
the ships carry neutral flags, are SUBJ
ject to any prescribed penalty.
5. Blockades in order TO be bind
ing upon neutral nations must exist
in fact and not simply upon paper.
In other words, they must be main
tanned with some degree of thor
oughDees.
6 Ships of the enemy are subject
to capture anywhere at sea without
reference to the ports from or to
which they are going, but neutral
ships are subject TO capture only
when seeking TO enter blockades.

INDEMNITY AFTER PEACE
Cost of War to Be Settled When Hos
tiliIies Cease

tliltIeS lease.
WASHINGTON, May IA cabinet
officer said tonight: 1.-The question
of indemnity will come up as soon
as the United States aud Spain cease
hostilities and treaty of peace is
signed. Just what this Government
will ask by way of indemnity is not
ascertalnable as yet The Philips
pines are very valuable possession,
but l see no reason why we should
hold them except for marketable
purposes. Being contiguous to
Japan, I believe that nation would
pay big price for them. Porto Rico
too, is desirable.
81 car see no significance in the
failure of Germany and Austria to
publicly declare neutrality IN order
to be neutral. A man does not have
to formally declare his honesty in
order to be honest. This Govern
ment did not formally declare
neutrality in the contest between
Spain and Cuba, yet we enforced the
neutrality laws with strict vigilance.
eff we have sharp and decisiv g
battle with Spain on the high seas
and cripple her feet, this will hasten
the hosting of the white flag.
Without navy to combat US Spain
would be utterly powerless. She has
some good fighting ships, but she
cannot afford to loose any one of
them. The same, however, might
apply with equal force to the United
States. A Bull Run will hasten a
treaty of peace"

Go. Farmers Alliance.
WHEREAS, Experience is the only
true and safe guide in the manage
ment of human affairs, public and
private, and whereas, in the expert

Curiosities of the Bible.

Presbyterian Review.
The following Bible curiosities are
said to have been gained by study
of the good book by the Prince of
Granada, heir apparent to the
Spanish throne, during his 33 years
imprisonment at the place OF Skulls
Prison, Madrid:
''In the Bible the word LORD Ia
found 1 1853 times; the word Jeho-
yah, $685. times, and the word
reverence but once, and that in the
9th verse of the 111th Psalm The
9Th verse of the 11Sth Psalm is the
middle verse of the Bible. The 9th
verse of the 9Th chapter of Esther is
the longest verse. The 35th verse,
18th chapter of st. John, is the
shortest. In the 10th Psalm four
verses are alike, the 9Th, 18th, Dist
and 31st. Each verse of the 136th
Psalm ends alike. No names or
words with more than six syllables
are found in the Bible. The 9th
chapter OF Isaiah and the 10Th
~chap ter of III. Kings are alike. The
word girl occurs but once in the
Bible, and that in the Sd verse and
81 chapter Of Joel; and the word boy
but once, Zech. So There are found
in both books OF the Bible 3, $50, 4S3
letters and 773 ,693 words.

1T IS WELL.

Every unprejudiced citizen must
feel more hopeful of the future welfare
and progress of Winston since the re-
suit of Mondays election places the
administration in the hands OF those
who will give us capable government
the personnel of a majority of the
Board of Aldermen being such as to
inspire confidence In the conduct of
the business affairs of the city and to
give sense of security as to the
maintenance of law and the protec =
ton of property.
The newly elected Mayor, Col. A.
B. Gorrell, will bring to the discharge
of the duties of the office experience,
discretion and energy, and we have
reason to believe that he has high
er conception of the position than
that of simply holding Court and
drawing his salary, and that he will
do whatever may be within his power
to bring success to the administra-
ton and to advance the interests of
the people of Winston.
While the Democratic success is at
tributable in part at least to the
division in the ranks of our oppo-
nents, this division proved a for
tuitous circumstance, because the re-
suit is the best for the great body of
the citizenship, regardless of former
political utilization, as the history of

A NOBLE WORK.

Already the James B. Gordon
Chapter of the Daughters of the Con-
federacy is finding much patriotic
work to perform, in providing for the
comfort of the Rifemen, preparing
for the Memorial Day exercises and
the reunion of the Confederate
Veterans, etc. Moreover, the Daugh-
tiers have and will have at all times
the sacred duty upon them of perpet-
uating the valor and fortitude OF
their fathers who wore the gray and
whose heroism in defence of native
land is unsurpassed in the annals of
history.
The ranks of the veterans are
growing thinner year by year and
not many years hence the great rank
and file will have passed into tn
Camp of the Beyond. Therefore, t.
the Daughters and Sons of Veteran
will be entrusted the patrioti4
mission of keeping alive the memory
of the followers of the Lost Cause
and to defend as a priceless heritage
their peerless record.
Now that another war is upon US
it becomes the more imperative to
exercise diligence in preserving the
history of the Confederate veterans
Fresh deeds of valor may soon be
written in letters of blood upon the
history of the present-deeds which
doubtless, will excite the admiration
of the world but these should not
efface from the memory of present
and coming generations of the fail
Southland the heroism and sacrifice
of the matchless Southern soldiers o
| the Civil War,
Hence, we would appeal to every
lady in the Twin-City and in Forsyth
County, eligible to membership, to
| become members of the James b
Gordon Chapter, Daughters of Con
federacy, and to enter earnestly upoI
the performance of the noble anC
patriotic work entrusted to thei
| care.
