ANOTHER ATTACK.


Senator Tillman is opposing the Ha-
waiian Bill with much forceful lam
guage and the use of anonymous cor
respondence. The kind of irresponsible
statement which he read out in the
senate is the kind of stuff circulated by
Don Celso Caesar Moreno, Bob Wilcox,
Caypless, and people of that caliber.
To say that such statements are of no
avail would not be true. If enough mud
be thrown some of it will stick, no mat
ter how much clean water may be used
to wash it Off But, that it will succeed
is quite a different thing. 1t will not
succeed.
Senator Tillman's object in this at
tack upon the Hawaiian Bill is proba-
bly, instigated more by pique than by
any personal like or dislike to the
Islands and their people, or any strong
ideas as to methods of government
based upon an intimate knowledge of
the subject. We may expect attacks of
this kind from the Democratic side Of
the House. 1t is not the Hawaiian Bill
that is attacked, but it is the Republi-
can policy, and the Republican party
which is being hit over the shoulder
of the Hawaiian Bill.

movement in the attack seems to have
Ieen made by the Canadians and the
and Lord Roberts cornph-
ments the Colonial troops considerably.
From Buffers side the news is all OF
continued hard fighting. The force
against him is small, in all probability,
tut so posted and so mobile that 1t can
keep the whole Of his army at work.
The relief of Ladysmith may however,
I've looked upon as certain. If it came
shortly after Cronje's surrender, both
Butler and White might advance on
Dloemfonteln from the east and thus
make Roberts victory certain, even IL
the whole Boer force concentrates at
that place. 1t certainly does not look as
if the war would now be prolonged for
any length of time and the fact of so
great a success as this initial move
ment of Roberts will do much to pave
the way to peace. The march OF events
will now be rapid, and any mail may
bring news of a cessation of hostilities.

SOME CRITICS.

The bills for the giving an organic
law to the Islands, seem to cause a
considerable amout of trouble to a con-
siderable number of the mainland pa
pers The bills are so straightforward,
grasp the situation so thoroughly, and
propose that the work on the Islands
should be carried on so considerably,
that hardly politician can believe that
they are honest.
The papers that review the Hawaiian
bills in congress simply cape. They
cannot understand that there was an
honest committee, which came out to
these islands, studied the condition
here and then returned to the seat of
government, giving an unbiased, clear
and satisfactory report upon what they
had seen, with carefully drawn propos-
ais.
1t is a curious thing that among one
of the most honest nations upon the
face of the earth; among a nation which
certainly, as a mass, has the highest Of
ideals-for certainly the aspirations Of
many women and men of the west are
they may be, are great and lead to
greatness-still a majority cannot I'M
derstand the different standpoint in re-
gard to many mooted questions. 1t will
only see from one.
If one reads the comments upon Ha-
waiian affairs one reads a commentary
upon others views. There are very few
of the commentators who take the
trouble to know what they are talking
about they talk from the slimmest
theory to the most .attenuated practice.
However, in spite of lukewarmness, in
spite of ringing blows from interested
parties, the star of Hawaii is rising
and will one day find its home among
that brilliant galaxy which typifes the
United States of America.

THE WAR.

The war in South Africa seems to be
coming the way of the British at last
The military critics have all along in
sisted that the proper place for the
British to aim for was the Orange Free
state, which afforded better battle
ground for trained troops than the
mountain passes of northern Natal In
the one place everything was in favor
Of the unframed sharpshooter in the
otner the advantage lay with those who
understood the management and ma
neuvering of trained troops.
The capture of Cronje and his force
will by no means end the war, but it is
having just the calculated effect Of
making the Orange Free State Beers
anxious to withdraw from active opera T..
lions outside of their own territory
They will now want 70 make a stand
at Bloemfontein, the capital, and if they
are defeated there, they will most prob
ably be anxious to dissolve the alliance
with the Transvaal and leave the lat
ter to its fate.
On all sides the gallantry of the
Doers is commended. Cronje held out
to the very last, and apparently Lord
Roberts was 10th to proceed to extrem-
titles, but he finally had to use the full
power of his artillery. The deciding

The strain of inspection is beginning
to tell and the Citizens Sanitary Com
mittee has decided that after fort
night inspection by volunteers shall
cease. 1t is to be hoped that by that
time there will be no longer any need
for inspection other than can be done
by the paid agents of the board. On
retiring it would be an acknowledgment
much appreciated by the inspectors
and subnspectors if the board would
present each with a certificate stating
the amount of time that the holder
had devoted to the service, and the APP
preciatioan of the work done. This
would form a souvenir of a period
which will be long remembered in Hon
olulu.

THINK OF THESE THINGS.

If we cannot eat we starve. Every
body who does not die of violence
finally starves to death "In nearly
all diseases" says an eminent physi-
clan, " starvaii N is the final cause of
death" 1t is not the food on the
table, but the food you eat and digest
that nOurishes you. In all wasting
complaints the appetite and diges-
ton weaken or fail and the body
fades away. The true remedy must
be one which at the same time in.
vigorates the digestive powers and
acts, in and of itself, as a food. 1t
must build up the body faster than
it is destroyed and also stop the ten
dency to wasting by curing the di-
sease. The researches of modern sci
ence have placed such a remedy
within our reach; and the wasting
diseases, which have so long been the
terror OF the human race, Yield at
once to the healing power of

GEN. MILES ON CHINA.
Regards the Situation as Serious ant
Fraught with DimcuIttes.

General Nelson A. Miles. discussing the
Chinese situation. said in New York yes
terday that he regarded 1t as very serious.
China he said, is bad country for
troops to move through. Serious obstacles
are to be encountered in forwarding NUM-
tions of war and general supplies. 1 see a
force of 1900 Chinese soldiers is reported
to be within a days march of Tfen Tsin.
1t is possible they may strike in behind the
relief column and threaten fits line Of COM
munication 1t would be a serious matter
were the column cut of. as there is no sup
porting force to rush to it's aid
He said the United States should be able
to get 5000 troops into China within a
month Continuing, General Miles said:
I'm not surprised at the fight the China
men are making. 1t is wen known among
those who have followed events in the
fowery kingdom that the government has
been storing munitions of war and making
preparations for the past several years.
They are an ingenious people, and can imi-
tate almost anything made by others"

LOCAL DEMOCRATIC FACTIONS.
Action of the National Committed
Subject of DiScuHaian

Subject of Discussion
Local democrats of both the Norris and
the anti-Norris factions do not find the
weather too warm to discuss the action
taken by the subcommittee of the demo-
cratic national committee regarding the
question of the membership from the Dis
trict of Columbia in the national body. 1t
was decided to leave the controversy for
settlement to the democrats of the District,
this settlement to be reached. it is under
stood, by means of a primary election in
the twenty-five local election precincts Just
when and how this election will be held
the manner in which 1t will be governed
in the matter Of judges and other poll Off
GERS, is not at present known.
Heretofore primary elections by demo-
Gratis here were held under regulations laid
down by the democratic central committee
which is composed of one member from
each election district The last election was
carried out in this way, but the anti Norris
democrats claimed the returns were fraud
ulent, and held mass meeting, at which
six delegates and as many alternates to
Kansas City were chosen and another
democratic central committee formed The
Kansas City convention recognized the
claims of the anti-Norris faction to the ex-
tent of giving it equal representation so far
as voting was concerned, and the recent
action Of the national committee is re-
garded as further recognizing its claims.
The question now bothering District scit-
liens of Jeffersonian and Jackson trend of
thought is how they will be governed in
voting at the primary election which is in
tended to finally settle the factional fight
AS there are two democratic central COM
mittees. it is regarded as problem too
difficult to solve to ascertain which will be
regarded as authoritative in primary pre-
liminaries.
All talk of harmonious agreement be-
tween the two bodies in determining this
question is regarded with amusement by
those who know the intensity of the an
tagonism existing between them. Accord
ingly, local democrats are up in the air, so
