II, as the military organ stated
last night, Hawaii is to be annexed
as soon as war is declared, we will
have to take our chances, and the
curse for the fate which will befall
us, will fall on the heads of the Am
erican Administration, which then
will have added to the ignomy and
disgrace with which it has covered
itself through its Infamous annexa-
ton policy. But, If we are left alone,
and Mr.. Dole and his henchmen try
some funny business, the time has
come to cry halt in stentorian voices
that cannot be misunderstood.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-14

But if the insane iingoes, now at
large in the Government building,
will be permitted to run a-muck,
and Hawaii is to be made the out
post of the United States, we will
witness such disasters and sufferings
as never dreamt of even by the
sugar bsrons, who have succumbed
to the horrible nightmare which
showed to their saccharine minds
dividends at the rate of only 10%
per annum.

Timely Topics.

Honolulu. April 1, 1898
In ANCIENT DAYS
we crowned VICTORS, in
modern days we sell them, for
we are materialistic and not
sentimental.
THE VICTOR SAFES
are indeed victors, for as fire
and burglar proof safes they
are the very best that can be
made, and embody in their
construction many improve
ments not found in other
makes.
AS THE MAYOR of
Cincinnati wrote they have
"beautiful finish and excellent
workmanship"
We carry six sizes in stock,
and you will find everything
perfectly satisfactory. En-
anime carefully.
OUR LARGE VICTOR
and you will be satisfied. We
can fix up the interior in any
way to suit you; or buy a
little Queen for your Jewels
and valuables. Above all
come and inspect before you
buy.

NO TOBACCO ON SUNDAYS.
An Old Law ResurreCte at Milton, Pa.-TO
Raise More Sugar Beets-'A Decade
of Kansas Agriculture"
Sent East.

New YORK, Jan. 1S-Rapid strides
have been made in arranging the de-
tails on the great coal mining, carry
ing and selling combination. of which
j. Pierpont Morgan is the presiding
genius The capitalists will so ar
range that they will be in the closest
touch with the working miners of the
states affected, Pennsylvania, West
Virginia, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois
The most interesting feature of the
new combination is the profit sharing
plan for the miners. The Importance
of this plan will be seen, when it is
stated that 200, 900 men will be affected.
1t is in the power of these men, by
good or bad conduct, to save or lose
millions of dollars annually to the
companies. The companies now pro-
pose to enlist the miners, so that they
will see it is to their personal interest
to cooperate in the new arrangements
No Tobacco on SUNDAYS.
MILTON, Pa, Jan. 1S.-There was a
dearth of cigars and cigarettes Sunday
and all persons using the weed in any
form unless they laid in "a supply Sat
urday night did without it. This was
because Burgess Caldwell resurrected
an old state law forbidding the sale of
tobacco of any kind on Sunday. The
notices were served in the evening
upon all the tobacco shops, drug stores
and hotels and in fact everywhere to-
bacco is sold. 1t was the first time an
attempt was made to enforce the law
here. Dealers generally observed it,
but may fight the measure.
To Raise More Sugar Beets.
OMAHA. Neb., Jan. lS.-Between 80

California, Utah, Oregon and New
Mexico Ninety per cent comes from
Germany and ten per cent. from France
and Russia. The seed is sold to the
farmers at Is cents per pound and
practically all that is used is import
ed. The sugar beet business in this
country has increased from % to so
per cent. this year

THE COFFEE CASE
Woolson Accuses the Arbuckles of
Unlawful Action

TOLEDO, o., Jan. 4.-The Woolson
Spice Company has filed an answer in
the United States Court in the action
brought against it by the Arbuckles
It is alleged that the Arbuckles are,
and have been since December, 1895,
engaged in a conspiracy to injure, de-
stroy and wreck the business of the
Woolson Spice Company for the pur-
pose of wiping out of existence n dan
gerous and formidable rival in the cof-
fee roasting industry. The answer then
goes on to say that it would be dan
gerous to the interests and welfare of
the company to permit the Arbuckles,
who own fifty shares of Woolson stock,
to be allowed to participate in any way
in the management of the latter con-
Germ. 1t alleges that when all previous
schemes had failed, the Arbuckles en-
tered into a conspiracy TO force the
Woolsons to enter into a combination
to boycott part of the trade of Ohio
and the United States, or have the
Woolsons boycotted by the trade.
