At Yokohama year or so ago
there were two distinct colonies, the
American and the English. They
did not amalgamate and used to
''bite their thumbs" at one another
in true Montague and Capulet fash
ion. But now matters are very diff
ferent. The two colonies have unit
ed and cannot see enough of each 9th
ser, and they shake hands and drink
the national cocktail and then the ma
tional pale ale and porter, and sweet
peace has descended. This is what
the Spanish-American war has done
for the Yokohama colony. And the
beauty of it all is they are finding out
one another's good qualities and Won
dering why they did not see them be-
fore. What is true of Yokohama, is
true of much larger spheres. The old
prejudices are wearing away, thank
God

The presence of United States

shows that Hawaii is in fact a part
of the Great Republic. The boys are

United States troops. 1t is an honor
to both regulars and volunteers that

THE FLAG RAISING.

The retiring cabinet does not seem
to know its own mind in the matter
of the flag raising. Some days ago
it was to be popular affair and there
was to be singing of the Star Span

Blue, while President Dole wanted a
choir to sing the new anthem, Column
bia. About the latter it was suggest
ed that for a popular gathering pop
ular tunes should he chosen with

The destruction of the Spanish feet
Oft Santiago has given a great impe-
tus to the Gulf trade. Vessels had
been laid up, but as soon as it was
absolutely assured that all danger of
Spanish cruisers had disappeared,
there was a rush to get vessels ready
to run to Santiago. Spanish CONNER
cial regulations have always been
very arbitrary, and have hampered
trade, but it is now certain that a big
trade can be, built up in American
food stuffs, which can be sold much
cheaper than formerly, owing to the
abolition of the prohibitive port char
ges. War risks were a thing of the
past in the middle of July. Who will
not agree that the American occupa-
ton of Cuba is not blessing.

Yesterday the cabinet had changed
its mind There was to be no popu
lar demonstration. Everything was
to be of strictly official character.
If there were to he exercises the pub
lie might hold them in the opera
house, or on the sidewalk, or on
Punchbowl or anywhere, but on the
sacred grounds of the Executive
building.
1t is rather hard to understand why
an occasion of this sort should not
have been marked by appropriate eX-
ercises other than the mere display of
armed men, Official frock coats and
a military, salute. Nor does one see
why there should be any mystery
about what the exact official program
is to be. When the president of the
United States is sworn in, every one
knows exactly what will take place,
and if by any chance there was to be
change i'm that simple ceremony, the
public would be duly notified of such
change. When there is any big func-
ton in any country the public is duly
notified of the arrangements made
and the manner of its being carried
out, and if people do not like the
method they freely express their
/ opinions in the press if they happen
to live i'm England or America.
| But the last act in the little drama
! of annexation is to be sprung upon
us by surprise. The ceremonies are
| to he kept dead secret until the
very last moment. OF course this
causes a laudable amount of curios-
/ ity. 1t has been stated that there
are to be platforms. 1t is whispered
that these will have trap doors, and
as the Hawaiian flag descends that sc
will President Dole and cabinet sink
slowly from sight, amid the lurid
flame of Bengal lights and port fires
This would be more effective at night
but etiquette forbids hosting flags al
night, yet colored smoke looks quite
pretty by daylight.
As the cabinet has given no reasons
for its reticence upon the matter, it i.
impossible to discuss them, and to de
eide whether the reasons are good OF
bad. The members of the Annexation
Club or rather the officers of the clul
should decidedly have participated il
the official exercises. Though it il
perfectly true that Dewey's guns has
tened annexation, it is equally trut
that the work of the club and it
ceasless propaganda made annexation
possible and lifted the question from
theoretical to a practical position
in American politics. The Annexation
Club also made the cabinet possible
This work should have been recog
nized officially, and it is a great pit
that the cabinet did not see it's wa
to that recognition.
