We hope that the gentlemen who
will have charge of the celebrations
and ceremonies of the "hoisting of
the flag" will prepare proper accom-
modations for the representatives Of
the press, local and foreign. Under
the past regimes the newspaper men
have been treated little better only
than Chinese coolies, 1t is about
time that the newspaper men of
Honolulu assert themselves and in-
sist in being accorded the courtesies
aud privileges due to the exponents

A Big Law Suit.

Attorneys Henshall and Creigh-
ton have filed suit on behalf of
James Mcqueen against Mrs. Fran
ces e. Jackson.
In the complaint it is asserted
that plaintiff, who is the son Of de-
fendant, was entitled to an equal
share in the estate of the late u. Y.
Squires, who willed his property
valued at $4,000 to the principals
in the suit in equal shares
No division has been made be-
tween mother and son, and the lat
ter now demands an accounting of
the proceeds of the property and
asks for a division. The property
was disposed of to w. r, Castle,
trustee, and the proceeds invested
in sugar stocks, which recently have
advanced very materially in price
and from which the dividends have
been very heavy
Mcqueen claims through his at
torneys that he has not yet seen any
part of the principal or dividends and
he is anxious to know where he is
going to come in on the deal. An
Injunction has been asked for and
the case will be heard in the Circuit
Court.

Have our wise men who believe
that contract labor will be tolerated
in Hawaii ever realized the fact that
according to the tenor Of the Joint
Resolution all treaties between Ha-
wai and foreign countries cease at
once as soon as the American flag is
hoisted in Hawaii. When our treaties
with japan are cancelled every con-
tract between the planters and the
Japanese laborers will be annulled.
All the contracts are based on the
provisions OF our treaties with
Japan. When those treaties are
abrogated the contracts expire at
once.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-07-20

The sugar barons through their
tools in the government have Sc
cured permission to introduce 5000
Japanese coolies under contract.
The order will be forwarded by
cable at once, and the slaves will be
on their way to Hawaii, before the
flag is hoisted and slave labor for
hidden in Hawaii. Do our friends
the sugar barons realize the fact
that everyone of the great political
parties in the United States have
been obliged to put plank in their
platforms which pledges the men
who will be elected, to support any
law against further immigra-
tion OF all Asiatic laborers
into the United States. Japan will
kick, but the people of the United
States will tell them to kick and he
blessed. If Japan does not like to
be treated in the manner China
has been, she can do the other thing.
Cheap labor in Hawaii will very
soon be an unknown quantity. A
leading millionaire politician in
California, who thinks that annexa-
tion is grievious mistake, writes
that the sugar planters of Hawaii
within one year from date will be
busy hiring men to kick them for
their egregious idiocy in advocating
q policy, which means loss of wealth
if not ruin to them.

II we are to be Americans let US

commission will endeavor to saddle
the Hawaiians with.

Judge Frear is another mission
ary" The young man may be
studious and learned in the law.
He is man who doesn't understand
or know the people for whom he is
to make laws and a government.
He is thoroughly imbusd with the
idea that the missionary clique is
the chosen representative of the
Supreme Being and that their
special mission is to run Hawaii and
perform the difficult feat of eating
the cake and yet keep it.

Mr.. Mckinley has shown himself
a very clumsy statesman and very
foolish politician by appointing men
like Dole and Frear as the represen-
tatives of the interests of Hawaii -nei
on the commission. If it is desirable
that the Hawaiians should fall into
line and eventually become content
ed under the new conditions, why
should the man, who more than any
others has earned their contempt
and hatred be selected for a place,
where he never will have their con-
fidence and for which he is wholly
unsuitable.

Mr.. Dole is too much identified
with the revolutions in Hawaii to
ever become persona grats to the
people of Hawaii. His smallness
and lack of tact have been shown so
plainly in numerous instances that
even the ardent American annexa-
tionists Of this city are disgusted
and indignant that the framing of
government in Hawaii should be
left to the man who took the credit
of making liberal donation to the
Maine fund and eventually charged
it to the taxpayers who so far have
been unable to receive an account
ing of the money, which he drew
from the Treasury and wasted on
his junksting trip to Washington.

Senator Schmidt wanted to
know what the committee had done
about that petition of bondholders
representing $2,O00,0O0 of bonds.
Senator Baldwin said that had
been considered by the committee
with other docum ents. The com.
mittee had not thought it neces-
larry to make special reference
to it.
Senator Schmidt thought il
should be given large amount OF
consideration. The bondholders
claimed that to take the railway
