PRESIDENT MoKINLEy's APPOINT
MENTS.

President Mckinley showed
what may be considered as good
business sense when he decided to
allow the Republic of Hawaii to
continue to run in its present
official channels, until Congress
determines its exact status in the
family of States.
Having been a prominent factor
in assisting Mr.. Mckinley to car
ry out his policy of annexation, it
was highly proper from a political
standpoint that the official life of
Hawaii should not be disturbed,
for the time being, any more than
is absolutely necessary. From the
business standpoint, the conclu-
sion was quickly drawn that,
whatever change of sentiment
there might be here after the
territory was once assumed
by the United States, the
business wheels of the government
would run more easily under the
care of men who had kept them in
hand for the past five years. To
have made radical changes in the
official personnel of the territory
would have created a certain
amount of business chaos which
might be followed by further
chaotic conditions after Congress
had done its part.
Under the Newlands Resolution
the laws of Hawaii are to continue
unchanged, except as they may
conflict with the constitution of
the United States. Also under
the Newlands Resolution, the Off
cial life of Hawaii is placed in
the hollow of President McKin-
ley's hand. Hawaii today is prac.
tically under a protectorate
and the officials of the terri
tory from President Dole to
the lowest paid clerk are
directly responsible to President
Mckinley and his advisers and to
them alone. 1t is not likely the
officials in Washington will bother
their heads very much over the
officials In Hawaii unless the lat
ter attempt improbable radical de
partures.
We do not believe there ia any
particular dissatisfaction with Pre-
sident McKinley's course, al
though the people have not chang,
ed their opinions as to the condi.
tons under the permanent gov
eminent which Congress will give.
AS the BULLETIN has previously
stated, the Commission is now the
most prominent factor on the
stage faction.

With the retirement of VIM. o.
Smith from official life, the execu.
tive body Of Hawaii will lose one
of its strongest men. We cannot say
that Mr.. Smith has been popular
in the political sense of the word, but
he has been a capable official and
universally respected. The recog
milton of his strength as cabinet
official, has given rise to the gener
al supposition that he "rau the Elk
ecutive" aud consequently if any
thing went counter to popular OPT
MON the attorney general was held
responsible for it. Mr.. Smith has
always made the assertion that the
salary and glory of a cabinet posi-
ton was scaut reward for the labor
involved, and now that the cause for
which he labored without ceasing
has been successful, he steps back
into the busy but less narrowing
walks of business life.

John Rhondes. of This City, Has
Thrilling Experiences.


An interesting letter has been received

arms of the L. S. S. Hawk, on the Ha-
vana blockade. Among other things he
says:
I'VE are still off Havana, doing block
ade duty, and we had very good luck on
the night of the 4th. We sighted fine,
big. four-masted vessel of about 5000 tons
making for Havana, so we gave chase TO
her. seeing that she could not get away.
AS we kept firing at her she put into Ma
riel about forty miles west of Havana,
and her captain ran her high and dry on
the beach, so our captain asked for a vol
unteer boats crew 10 go in, board her
and cut her out, which we attempted. /

never forget the experience ! had that
night 7',-.-'-
"They showed a white light over the
side which was a signal of surrender,
but when our boat got within twenty-five
yards they opened fire on US from the
ship and the beach, and the shot fell
around US like hailstones for awhile. How
our crew escaped being killed ! cannot
tell, but, as luck would have 1t, not one
of Us got hurt. Our captain and crew had
given US up for lost but we got back 10
the ship all right, and our officers and
men gave US three hearty cheers.
I'VE laid. off and on until morning
Then the captain thought it best to go for
assistance. We got the Castine to &c
in with US and shell the town and forts
and then tried to tow the ship off the
beach, but nothing could be done. We
! got more assistance from the Badger
and the Prairie. but the Spaniards set her
on fire and she blew up. She was good
ship and would have made the finest cap
ture thus far. we are all sure. We
thought TO bring her into Key West, but
