Who Praise the Message +?

The reception accorded the Presidents
message is quite significant. Ofthe great
Republican daily papers nearly all speak
Of the message in terms Of extravagant
praise, and the major part of gold Demo.
cratic papers in the large cities and that
cater to the speculative interests also give
unstinted approval to the message. We
further find that the bankers and mem
bers of speculative pools and cliques who
are absorbed in the business of filching
wealth from their fellow men approve the
message with great unaninity. -Whorton
Barker's american.

absolutely nothing to atone for the out
rage or even to disclain it. She has not
even asked an explanation at the hands
of her captain of the port of Havana. On
the contrary she has done everything
possible to shield the culprits, whoever
they may be, to embafrass investigation
and to hide the truth.
How would Andrew Jackson have dealt
with such situation? In 1877 he was in
command of the southern department,
bordering on the Spanish province Of
Florida Finding that the Spanish
authorities were harboring our savage
enemies, he ignored boundary lines and
pursued the Senlinoles whithersoever they
might go.
Finding them sheltered in the Spanish
fort of St. Marks he reduced that work,
ran up the American flag over it, and
courteously offered the Spanish COM
mander transportatiors to Pensacola.
Finding Arbuthnot and Ambrister, two
British spies and Indian war instigators,
i'll Fort ST. Marks, he ordered them
court-nlartaled The court sentenced
one to be hanged and the other to be
whipped. Jackson ordered one hanged
and the other shot, and it was done.
William Mckinley is certainly not ar
Andrew Jackson. If he possessed spark
of the fire of Old Hickory he would have
demanded Of the Spanish authorities im
mediate steps for the discovery and execu
ton Of the miscreants who fired the mine
under the Name, as soon as the fact of ar
outside explosion was determined. HI
would have demanded an immediate ex
preston Of disavowal and regret for the
crime. Unless these things had beer
done he would have given to the Spanish
minister his passports and have sent ou
fleet to Havana to demand apology ant
PREPARATION under threat of bombardment
This is what Jackson wonld have done
This is what national honor demands
This is what real diplomacy and real gov
eminent mean.

The Resolutions as Passed.

After thirteen hours ard half struggle
over two words, care, and," in the first
resolution the following resolutions passed
both houses, with the Objectionable words
remaining. at an early hour Tuesday
morning:
Joint resolution for the recognition of
the independence of the people of Cuba,
demanding that the government ofSpain
relinquish its authority and government
i'll the Island of Cuba, and to withdraw
its land and naval forces from Cuba and
Cuban waters, and directing the President
Of the United States 10 use the land and
naval forces Of the United States to carry
these resolutions into effect.
Whereas the abhorrent conditions
which have existed for more than three
years i'll the Island of Cuba, so near our
own borders, have shocked the moral
sense of the people of the United States,
have been disgrace to Christian civiliza
ton, eliminating, as they have, in the
destruction Of United States battle ship.
with 266 of its officers and crew, while on
a friendly visit in the harbor Of Havana,
and cannot longer be endured, as has
been set forth by the President of the
United States in his message to Congress
of April II, 1898, upon which the action
of Congress was invited; therefore,
Resolved, by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of
America, in Congress assembled
"First-That the people of the Island
of Cuba are and of right ought to be free
and independent.
"Second-That it is the duty of the
United States to demand, and the govern
ment of the United States does hereby
demand, that the government of Spain at
once relinquish its authority and govern
ment in the Island of Cuba and withdraw
its land and naval forces from Cuba and
Cutan waters.
Third That the President of the Unit
ed States be, and he hereby is, directed
and naval forces of the United States, and
to call into the actual service of the
United States the militia of the several
States, to such extent as may be necessary
to carry these resolutions into effect.
"Fourth-That the United States here.
by disclaim any disposition or intention
to exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction, or
control over said island, except for the
pacification thereof; and asserts its deter
minatlon, when that is accomplished, to
leave the government and control of the
island to its people"
The Spanish naval forces are at Cape
Verde Islands, where, if they are wise,
they will stay, and leave Cuba to its
fate. This is probably what Spain
had concluded on some time ago. Havana
will be blockaded by the United States
navy and ''capitulate" i'll short time,
which will serve TO let the war spirit of
Spain down easy and save that wonderful
honor" of the bull fighters. And this
is likely to be about the extent of the
mighty war with Spain so much talked
about by the goldbug newspapers. Spain
will then save her navy which she is
bound to lose if it tackles Uncle Sans
ironclads. Spain wants to get away from
Cuba but doesn't know how to let 90
without getting into hot water at home.

Mr.. Lentz i'll his speech in the House
said:
Ever since March 1897 this admin
istration has been doing something to
raise the price of stocks, and every pur-
pose has been to bull the market as high
as they could maintain it. If we delare
the independence of Cuba Spanish stock
would go down and other stocks on the
market would go down in sympathy"
The stock market appears to be the
cause of Presidential wabbling.

How the United States could 'inter-
vene" in Cuba without landing all army
to do the intervening act is what none OF
the Presidents defenders attempted TO
explain. To land all army on the soil OF
Cuba without Spain's consent would be
an act Of war, and yet these advocates Of
intervention claim would be all i'll the
interest of peace.

PREPARING 70 CELEBRATE
THE CHINESE NEW YEAR FALLS
ON SATURDAY.
John Chinaman viii Extend His
Greetings to Everyone-The Recep-
ton at the Chinese Hail.

The Chinese New Year is approach
ing and the colony is making elaborate
preparations for the event.
Next Saturday is the day and bust
ness in Chinatown will be suspended
for the day. Every housewife will lose
her servant on that occasion. 1t will
be one gala day for John Chinaman.
All day long the Chinese merchants
and wholesalers will keep open house
to their countrymen and more partic-
ularly to their white customers and
friends.
\ grand reception will take place at
the United Chinese Society hall from
II until > o'clock. Chinese Consular
Agent Goo Kim. who is also president
of the society, Vice President Kwong
Kwai and other officials of the society
will receive the visitors. \ typical
Chinese feast will be spread. The
Government band will furnish music
from the balcony fronting the street.
The display of fireworks on Satur-
day win be one of the features of the
day. 1t has been a prosperous year
with the Chinese and they will spare
no enthusiasm in this direction. Mar
shall Brown has given them permission
to discharge as many fireworks as
they please in their own enclosures.
The marshal requests that it be not eX-
tend to the streets and highways for
fear of some damage occurring.
The Chinese year is lunar. but its
commencement is regulated by the
sun. New Years falls on the first
new moon after the sun enters
Aquarius. This cannot take place be-
fore January 81, nor after February
10. The lunar year is, of course, short
er than the solar year. but the Chi
nese correct the error TO considerable
degree by inserting an intercalary
month twice during every period of
five years. thus giving thirteen
months to two of the five wears.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the Office of the Electric Company and said
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you wall.

this line and have just received lot Of the
