Breaking the Bank.

The shrewdness aud loquacity of
market-women are proverbial; and
the following anecdote, in Mr..
Doran's book on Table Traits"
bears witness to the justice of their
reputation:
A member of the sisterhood, in
Bristol, had f10 Bank of England
note, and wished to exhange it for
gold, which was then at high pre-.
MUM. Accordingly, she entered a
bank and made known her request,
to be met with instant refusal.
The quick witted woman, without
exhibiting any disappointment,
thereupon asked the cashier to let
her have ten OF the banks 81 note
in exchange for her Bank. Of Eng
lander. The exchange being COM
pleted, the old woman, taking up
one OF the provincial notes, read
aloud the promise engraved upon it,,
to pay the bearer in cash.
"Very good" said she, with a
chuckle, snow, gi' me goold for your
note, or I'll run to the door and call
out, Banks broke ?"
There was no resisting this appeal,
and the market woman departed in
triumph.-IIt-B bits.

WHO Is HEP

We are pleased beyond expression
in temperate language to see an old
and esteemed resident OF Hawaii in
print in an open letter to the legis.
lators of this "funny little republic"
We are not disposed to criticize the
letter beyond saying that it throws
but little new light upon the ques-
tion Of licensing the sale of opium.
The bald assertion that during the
period when the sale Of the insidi.
Gus drug was licensed the cost OF
government and other eleemosynary
and punitive institutions was in
creased would have more force if
the figures had been produced. BY
all means furnish our legislators
with your figures, Colonel.

The new stock contain several

OUR PROSPECTIVE CITIZEN, All CHI.
As is known, the Hawaiian
Legislature was elected by the an
nexation party, and is unanimous
for that policy. 1t has passed and
repassed, ratified and reratiied an
nexation, and has threatened to Of
fer the islands in the markets OF the
world if taker is not found in the
Unitad States. Only recently we
were assured of the intense anti
Chinese sentiment OF this Legisla-
ture and it's consuming desire to
welcome the Anglo-Saxon as a
laborer and citizen.
The Labor Commissioner Of
California, who made an official
pilgrimage to this shrine Of anti
Chinese opinion, returned reporting
the Legislature looking and longing
for white hands in the cane fields
aud burning with desire to send
the pigtails back to the Flowery
Kingdom. One would have thought
billiards taboo in Honolulu because
the game is played with cue, which
might be confused with the Celes-
tial queue. All this was profession,
but it fixed public attention in this
country and has permitted the oppo-
site practice to go on riotously and
proftably.
Under the constitution of the
Hawaiian oligarchy there lie provid-
ed "a Council of State" the analogue
of the Privy Council OF the Queen
OF Great Britain and Empress OF
India. These councillors are the ad-
visers of President Dole, who seems
frequently in need of advice. These
councillors OF state are elected by
the Legislature. There recently oc-
Cured in this Council of State five
vacancies; why is not explained.
Perhaps they had grown weary ad-
vising the President to keep up a
republican pretense in government
based upon the consent OF only 2
per cent of the governed. Anyway,
there were five vacant chairs in the
great Council of State, and under
the constitution the annexation
Legislature had to fill them. For
the first vacancy Mr.. Geo. r, Carter
was a candidate. He is a brother OF
Mr. Charles Carter, who went out
with the Dole forces against the ma
tive revolution in 1896, and was the
only one killed. Being the brother OF
the only martyr of the oligarchy,
Mr., Carter expected to win hands
down in the Legislature, but he
didn't, Mr.. Ah Chi, Chinese gen
tleman, Celestial from top to toe,
smell OF punk and nut oil and all,
was presented as a candidate and
elected over Mr.. Carter. Ah Chi sits
now in Mr. Dole's Council OF State
and advises the President. If Ha-
waii be annexed as county of Cali
fornia we may have him as mem
ber OF our Legislature, or il the
State OF Hawaii comes into the Union
why may not Senator All Chi be sent
TO Washington
Whether there is a new heaven or
not, annexation seems to open up a
