HAZARD OF NEW FORTUNES.

The Maui News says: presumably,
the people of the Territory of Hawaii,
even including the Advertiser, feel
some desire to see the Territory be-
come a state. II SO. the sooner that
regular municipal EoySrnnents are es-
tablished for til different counties and
cities, the sooner we will be able to de-
monstrate that we are ready for state
hood"
We shall be ready for statehood, with
its county and city lines, when the peo-
pie are. BY the census of 1896 the num-
Der of Islanders who were supposed to
be conversant with Anglo-Saxon meth
DDS of domestic administration and
in sympathy with them, were Ameri-
cans, 3,0S6; Britons, 2,250; Germans,
1,432 and an unknown percentage of
Anglo-Saxons of voting age among
foreigners of Hawaiian birth. The
figures given amount to 6,76S; but let
us treble them for the sake of argu-
ment and we would have only about
10000 people from whom to draw the
voters, in the proportion of one to five,
to whom the work of building up the
more complex American system could
be committed. But not to all in safety,
for many of these same whites are in
Hawaii to do politics for spoils and for
no other object. What is left to battle
for good government and low taxes is
a residuum so small as to make a ven
ture into statehood politics most alb
surd and into city and county politics
most hazardous.
We need to wait and to grow; we
need enough American population to
secure local self-government Of the
American pattern. If taxes and rents
are kept down, lands opened up, agri-
culture reasonably diversified and
roads built; better yet if the plantation
owners shall get some of the white la
Dor that roasts all summer and freezes
all winter in the middle West and
would be eager to try it's luck in Ha-
waii-then we shall be ready, or in the
way of being ready, for the American
system But the time is not yet. Any
thing in the way of local self-govern-
ment. infinitely subdivided, that can
be had of the present voting majority
will be as un-American as is that ma
/ jority itself. How un-American that
/ is we leave it to the organ of the ma
/ jority party. the Independent, to say:
] Mr. Baird is a stranger here and has
not vet realized tnat the great UfdJOiltS
of the people here, the natives of the soil
especially. sympathized with Spain and
to the end of their lives will bear grudge
against everything American-as shown
by the followers of McKinley's admins
tration.
Fine citizenship, is it not, to take up
the work of organizing American coun-
ties, American cities and in the end
an American State?
II we get local governments provid-
ed by these self-acknowledged friends
of Spain and haters of the United
States Hawaii will be in such turmoil
of dirty politics, misrule and retalia'
ton that American home-seekers viii
stay away as they would from China
The one thing that Hawaii needs mos
is for the Americans and their sym
pathizers, among whom we number tn
intelligent and self-respecting Hawaii
ans, to stand together in support of thu
good government We enjoy, letting dan
gerous aspirations subside until tn
danger is over.

The Newest Snake Story.

The latest authentic snake story is
from North Glenwood farm, near
Easton, one of the country places in
Talbot county, Md. The other day a
big blacksnake was seen emerging from
an ice pond. 1t was killed. A protu-
berance was noticed about the middle,
The snake was chopped in two, and a
porcelain turkey nest egg rolled out.
Captain Noble Robinson was tenant on
the farm last year. Mrs. Robinson
raised turkeys, using china nest eggs
from nest near the ice pond. She
supposed a boy who had the range OF
the meadow had taken it. When the
egg from the snake was shown to Mrs
Robinson she identified it as the one
she had lost by a certain incised marh

Liberty's Lightning Rods.

The statue of liberty on Liberty Is
land, in New York harbor, was struck
twice by lightning on the Fourth of
July, and emerged unframed. One bolt
struck the appraised arm and another
hit it squarely on the forehead The
statue is protected by the finest sys-
tenn of lightning rods ever made. They
extend from point above the torch
down the figure and foundation and in
to the ground a distance of 305 feet
Thence they go into the water of the
bay and end in system of piping fitted

There is a widespread demand in the
East, especially in New York and
Washington, for social permission to
go without coats in dog days. The
male shirt-waister has already ap-
peared in a pleasing variation from
what is known in these Islands as the
Mode Tesla 1t may be necessary to
explain to phiIologists that fiesta" is
not defined in our fashionable world as
it is in Webster's Dictionary where it
means 1.-The outer coat or integument
of a seed" Here the coat is shucked
and the seedy part revealed.

Kicks for Shopllfters.

Some of the big New York stores are
trying new method of dealing with
shoplifters. The present system of
prosecuting them in court is not en-
tirely satisfactory, because If the pill
fered articles come to less than S25 the
charge can only he petty larceny.
Therefore the detectives now take from
the shoplifters whatever they have
stolen, conduct them to the back door
and dismiss them with good, swift
kick, adding warning that next time
the offender will be sent to Jail.

There is an eager effort among the
job-ehasers to beguile Judge Estee into
their small and exclusive ring. Judge
Estee is no longer in politics and his
position is of kind which ought to
protect him from the opportunities OF
men who represent nobody but them
selves and are more noisy than numer-
Gus. 1t would of course be a great
card to have Estee to train with, but 1t
does not seem to have occurred to the
job-chasers that the Judge himself
might have scruples about falling in
with the corporal's guard which fol-
lows the devious fortunes Of Carpet
Dagger Sewall.
