couraged, we trust that the people
who are to be induced to come here
will know the truth and the whole
truth in regard to their prospects
here, before the selling Of their pro-
perty in their old homes and start
ing on a most uncertain venture. We
ask everyone familiar with our exist
ing circumstances, whether they
would encourage friend to invest
his money here in lands to be used
for the cultivation Of pineapples,
vegetables and fruits2 1t is a
splendid idea of course to get a
number of settlers to buy up small
lands along the railroad, especially
from those who have got "stuck,"
and to build little towns with little
churches, and little echools (no
saloons), but it would be interesting
to have an explanation from the or
ganizers of the immigration scheme,
how the men are to live while their
pineapples grow, bacome ripe and
get canned, and while their celeries
and caulihowers are getting mat
ured The people who are to sell
the property in their homes can GER
tainly not expect to make living
simply by attending to the little
village, church, school (no saIoou)
etc. Are they expected to work in
the canefields as laborers? II so, let
them understand, that the mana gers
on our plantations have no use for
"white" labor, especially after the
character given them by sugar baron
Alexander Young to the laborers Of
California. BY all means let Amer
leans come here but let them come
with their eyes open and not
through misrepresentation.

TOPICS on TaE DAY,

A curious document was placed
on file recently with the Public Reg
istrar, in which man and wife
"agrees to separate and live apart
from each other during the remain
der Of their matrimony obligations"
1t il not a frequent occurrence that
married people, who want to dis
solve partnership, settle their bus
mess iu the Registrars Office. Will
such procedure make separation
binding?

We think our morning contempor
airy should devote some time to
reading up ancient Honolulu his
tory before making bad breaks and
libeling the dead. This morning we
are told by Mr.. Dole's organ that
Bradley, well-known barber in
Honolulu, whose descendants reside
here, was ticket-of-leave man
"from San Quentin; carved woman
with a razor; had committed a mur.
der in California with razor; had
been arrested again and placed with
the lock-step gang Of San Quentin;
and at one time had chance to and
intention Of cutting the throat Of
Judge Murphy of San Francisco. :"
There was barber here, whose
name was Wilkinson, and who did
slash women and did everything
which the morning paper ascribes to
Mr.. Bradley We certainly thought
that the Kings barber" would be
posted on everything connected
with the fraternity Of the soap and
razor, and that Kslsasua's Attor-
ney- General would know the Grim
inal history Of Hawaii of few de-
cades ago.

mical policy OF the Attorney General

from the Island of Oahu tried in
Honolulu, instead OF sending the

lying district9 Would it not he

Circuit judge, deputy marshal, au
interpreter, besides the attorney for
the defense, hiring span of horses
and surry to drive to Waialua, and
there probably attend Court for a
few moments, while the culprit is
charged, valves examination, and is
committed for trial in the Circuit
Court. 1t looks to the taxpayers as
another junketing trip. 1t is Christ

With the "pure politics" senti-
ments that he holds how could he
pull the wires so as to have a legis-
lature friendly to his administra-
tion? The next Legislature is
admittedly bound to be one which
will, at the least, hamper and
harass the combinations which are
at present dominant contrary to the
will OF the people, and the indications
are also that the indiscretions Of
the A. P. A. leaders will lead TO fur
ther difficulties by bringing religion
into politics, resulting probably in
the casting Of an overwhelming
Catholic vote, combined with that
OF those who were opposed to the
methods adopted to procure annex
alton, against the dominant Dole
Hyde faction.

Now with Dole as the first COVER
nor he would have the power to re-
appoint all Of his present pets and
to build for the future upon the
foundation of the family compact,
planter-missionary composition. To
protest against the endowment Of
such an influence is to betray TIE
friends who have maintained him in
power contrary to the wishes OF the
great mass of voters OF the people,
and is a proof palpable hat he is
not sufficiently an American politi-
elan to become the kng-pi OF ward
clubs and primaries.

Officials OF Mr.. Dole's govern
ment, when discussing the claims
for damages presented by foreign
citizens illegally put in Oahu Jail in
1895, are in the habit of saying that
the men were "charged with con.
spiracy." Attorney General Smith
must surely have lost bis memory,
when he makes such f. statement
officially, and we caH, only excuse
him by admitting that he lost his
head 40 completely in 1895, that it
is reasonable to expect that his
memory in regard to the episode,
has been seriously impaired. The
men who claim damages we're arrest
ed, contrary to the provisions OF the
treaties between Hawaii aud other
countries, and were never charged"
Of any crime or msdemeanor or
olfense, but locked up and kept in
Jail without ever obtaining a chance
to appear before court, to face
their accusers or to be heard in their
own defense, if any defense was
needed. In an official letter Mr..
Smith writes to the representative
OF foreign power to the effect, that
the moribund government of Mr.,
Dole is willing now to forgive one of
the foreigners Charged" in 1896
with conspiracy, We can we'll un-
derstand that the whole Dole outfit
feel very ashamed over the asinine
display made by them during the
1896 circus, but it is of no earthly
use for them to try to sneak out Of
the hole in which they placed them
selves by adding more misrepresen-
tations and falsehoods to their for.
mer record.

THE MINORITY REPORT.

Mr. Dole's report on the power OF
the Governor may be dictated by a
patriotic instinct but not from an
experience in practical politics. The
essence of practical politics is o grab
all the offices, you can, for yourself
and supporters. The rank and file
(the voters) are as much entitled to
the rewards of spoils as the leaders.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-12-29

In the interest of harmony in the
country the Opposition would pre-
fer to see both Dole and Sewall
withdrawn from the gubernatorial
proposition and some other indepen
dent man selected. Who, it is not
important so long as he is a good
man and takes live and practical
interest in this country as well as in
the one in which we have been alb
sorbs6, and foreclosed past re-
demWion.

NTENsE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stonn-
 aeh Trouble.
Instantly Relieved and Perman- ently Cured By Stuart's
 Dyspepsia Tablets.
A New Discovery, But Not
 Patent Medicine.

Dr. Redwell relates an interesting
 account of what he considers q re-
 markable cure of acute stomach trouble and chronic dyspepsia by ! the use of the new discovery ,Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
 | He says: The patit mt was a man who bad suffered tD my knowledge | for years with dyspepsia. Every
 thing he ate seemed to sour and create acids and gases in the stom-
 ach; he had pains like rheumatism in | the back, shoulder blades and limbs- | fullness and distress after eating. poor appetite and loss of flesh. the
 heart became affected, causing palpi- tation and sleeDiessness ar night. l gave him powerful nerve tonics and blood remedies, but to no pur- pose. AS an experiment. I finally bought a fifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at drug store and gave them to him. Almost immediate relief was given and after he had used four boxes he was to al appearances fully cured.
 There was no more acidity or sour watery risings. no bloating after meals, the appetite was vigorous and he has gained between 10 and F pounds in weight of solid healthy flesh.
 Although Stuart's Nypepsia Tab- let's are advertised and sold in drug stores yet l consider them a most valuable addition to any physiciau's line of remedies. as they are perfect ly harmless and can be given to children or inyalids or in any condi- ton of the stomach with perfect safety, being harmless and contain ing nothing but vegetable and fruit essences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
 Without any question they are the safest, most effective cure for in- digestion, bilionsness, constip ation and all derangements of the sto mach however slight or severe.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made by the stuart Co.,, of Marshall, Mich, and sold by druggists every where at fifty cents per package.
