A Successful Fair.

The accounts of the fair held
some weeks ago at St. Louis College
for the benefit of the Catholic
Church at K.alihi-waena, have been
settled, and the handsome
amount of ST, 26SS5 has been hand
ed over to the church. The Mission
is very grateful to all who contri-
buted to the success of the fair and
especially wish to thank Mrs. W. L.
Wilcox and her assistants for their
splendid work done in the interest
of the Kalihi-waena Church,

In preparation of the time when
the white workingmen of this coun-
try obtain the privilege Of voting,
we call their attention to the fact
that during last year (the year when
the family compact were pleading
for annexation to colonize this coun-
try with American men and princi-
pies and under false pretenses OBJ
tanned that, by them, much desired
annexation), there were imported
into this country, and landed in
quarantine, no less than 1878 Ash
atics, or an average OF more than
1000 a month, or this number no
less than 10,S23 were Japanese labor
ers. Since August 18th, the date of
raising the American flag there have
been landed just about 1000 more
Japanese. Remember these figures
when the representatives OF the pres
emit regime ask for your votes in
November next, and ask yourselves
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1899-01-07

whether men who have betrayed
their trusts to the people, as these
men have done, are trustworthy and
reliable leaders. Defeat them at the
polls and rout them horse, foot and
dragons, whether they come before
you in the garb OF Republicans or
Democrats.

1t is a pleasant thing to learn that
some day the Beach road will be
turned into shady boulevard. The
trees should have been planted, as
this journal advocated, Immediately
after the rough construction OF the
road. The great lack of this city is
shady rides, drives, and walks. If
telephone posts could be converted
into handsome trees, the city would
be gamer.

A friend reminds us that since our
judges are appointive, and not cleo
tive, the decision yesterday in the
Chinese Habeas Corpus cases could
not possibly have been actuated by
any but the most conscientious mo-
tives, as politics can by no possibil-
ity be deemed an influencing factor
in the construction Of frigid law.
Even the most learned judges have
admitted that keenness of intellect
can drive fourth hand through al
most any law devised by inhuman
ingenuity, much more by human
crudity, and the resolution of annex
alton pertains to the latter defni-
ton.

How do we stand after the decision
of the junior member of the Supreme
Bench and very young judge of
the Circuit Court yesterday, over
ruling the decision OF the Chief JUS
tice who has sat on that bench for
% years? Are we merely a penal
colony OF the United States whose
past good faith and obligations have
been waited away with breath by
hastily framed resolutions of Con-
gress adopted hurriedly to steal a
dishonorable victory out of honor
able defeat. Even Germany, after
its conquest Of Elsass and Lorraine,
did not go SO far as our owu judges
have compelled fair Hawaii to go in
cringing fawningly before the knee
of Columbia aud praying for the
castgation she apparently deems an
honor Reputation Of obligations
is always dishonorable even when
compelled by force majeure.
