ly disappointing In the final outcome
Of the whole scheme OF philanthropic
work here, the schools and this college
remain as the browning work.
Out OF the sixty millions Of dollars
paid out In bonus to the planters OF
Hawaii" for their sugars, as Mr.. Sher-
man said It, only mite Of 1t has been
expended In fostering this institution,
in making 1t the great educational in
stitution OF Polynesia, the one lasting
and imperial monument to the memory
Of the Fathers, a pledge of the faith
men here have in Christian civiliza-
ton, and the reign OF law.
Why more has not been expended
and the growth OF this institution is
arrested may be due to the demoraliz-
ing spirit OF prosperity which feeds on
what 1t wants, and promotes luxury
and high living rather than plain liv-
ing and contentment.

ASHFORUS ADVICE.

Mr.. G. w. Ashford, now in self en-
lie, in a letter to local contemporary
the official defender of the lost
cause" impressively urges the natives
to stay in the last ditch II they can
find It, and to multiply bitches IL they
can, and stay In them. He advises
them not to enlist In the American
army. because 1t may be used to subdue
the insurgents Of the Philippines. Slch
repetition OF what the Americans have
done in Hawaii.
This trumpet note of appeal to the
natives to make faces at Uncle Sam
shows how justly Mr.. Ashford ap-
preciates the unlimited power OF the
natives to make II hot for Uncle Sam
even with his army and navy behind
him. 1t is quite in the order of the
advice Of ack-Nasty-Jim," the In
dian warrior of the lava beds, that his
tribe should simply wipe out the army.
Before striking an attitude before
the natives, whom he was quite willing
to betray in 1887, he might suggest a
patriotic squaring OF accounts between
the natives and Liliuokalani, and eff
fectually end her complaint that from
the beginning to the end OF the Over
throw she did not receive "one dollar"
from them in aid and comfort.
In stirring the natives up to a hatred
OF Uncle Sam he reminds us of the old
stage driver, who lost his job after
railways were built, and spent his de-
clining years in Sticking" his dog at
the locomotive every time It passed
his home.

SECRET

The special correspondents here oil
the Eastern papers, who, owing to the
profound secrecy of somebody, did no,
know until the flag was raised that
President Mckinley had confirmed
everyone in office. and reported in
their numerous letters before that
event that President Dole had been
pulled out Of the arrangements, should
understand that this community for
many years submitted to the oppres-
sion Of Monarchial secrecy, which did
not entirely end with the Overthrow.
A State secret, under the old regime
was valuable "fnd," and adorned the
holders Of 1t for the time with an i'm
portance equal to that of wearing a
feather cloak. This habit of secrecy
was somewhat modified, during the
existence OF the Provisional Govern
ment, and later. Of the Republic. But
1t became more difficult to maintain
valuable secret. While 1t was fast
ehed up IN the Darrel OF the Cabinet,
and the energies Of the Executive were
concentrated in pounding down the
bung. the secrets were generally spout
ing at the spiggot.
The secrecy maintained regarding
President McKinley's appointments,
until the last moment. and until the
flag was raised, had a certain theatre
cal effect, but 1t was not in accordance
with democratic ideas, and the CORE
spondents were misled.
The only explanation is that there
were positive orders from Washing
ton to observe secrecy. or the ghost of
the old Monarchy got loose and took
possession.

GOOD FRIENDS.

O.. The names Of the Commlsso
from the Mainland, appointed to draft
organic laws, are almost household
words with us. Senator Collum Is well
known by reputation, as man of
broad views and large legislative ex-
perience. Regarding Senator Morgan.
we cannot say anything that is I'M
known to the residents of the Islands,
owing to his recent visit here, during
which he commanded the respect and
love of all those who were friendly
to the cause of annexation. The ma
| tives found In him warm friend, who
placed an unusually high estimate up
on them, and their capabilities as citi-
Zens.
Mr.. Hit is singularly well informed
regarding these Islands. At the time
King Kalakaua visited Washington in
1881, Mr.. Hit, as Assistant Secretary
OF State received him, and his suite, and
attended the King during his visit to
Iitslutnt arthur.
Among Mr.. Hits warm personal
| friends was the late James G. Blaine.
1t is well known how highly Mr.. Blaine
estimated his knowledge and expert
ence In matters of foreign policy.
Another of Mr.. Hits strong persons
al friends was the late VIM. Walter
Phelps, at one time Minister to Aus
tria, at another time Minister to Ger
many, and one of the Commissioners
in adjusting the Samoan difficulties
He was one of the most promising men
OF his times. For he was student, a
natural orator. and a man of great
wealth; one Of the younger American
statesmen, of whom much was justly
expected. but who went to his grave
before the shadows had heightened.
We can recall the earnest and far
reaching views of these men, and in
innate friends, all statesmen, formed
and expressed many years ago in ad-
vance OF the times, regarding the rela-
tons Of Hawaii and the United States
the need of these Islands as the
sword tip of American power in the
Pacific.
Mr.. Blaine is dead Mr.. Phelps is
dead. Mr., Hit remains to witness and
and take a part in establishing that
policy which is in no sense mere terri
torial expansion, but wise precaution
TO anticipate and guard against the oc-
cupation of these Islands, by a peace
full invasion of Asiatics, which our own
short sighted and selfish policy persis-
tently invited. The dead statesmen
cannot see the finish Of their work. But
their associate and friend lives to share
in ii, and himself write some of the
closing history of the first movement
made by the Great Republic to extend
its dominion almost thousand leagues
beyond the surf line of the Mainland.

there was a fine luau given in the

The last mail brings the information
that the Supreme Court of the United

condition Of a person born in the
United States of Chinese parents. 1t
holds, that under the Federal Consti-
tuition, as we stated on Monday, per-
son born in the United States of Chi
nese parents may enjoy all OF the
privileges of American citizens.
What the effect OF this decision will
be on the Chinese born In these Islam Is
cannot be authoritatively stated at
present.
There Is no reason whatever for be-
lieVing that there will be the slightss,
discrimination against the Chinese
born here. This is a question of law

There is food for reflection in these
cold figures.

With the alarm created about the

that outrages upon missionaries in
China will cease. The Emperor has is

it is recited that he will be strict and

mean that when missionaries are
