reviews the Kansas City platform.
Here is a part of it:
Reduced to definite propositions,
the Democratic platform is a de-
mand for The free coinage Of silver
at the ratio of 16 to I, and for the
REIMBURSEMENT of the Philippines
to Aguina1do, supplemented by an
appeal to passions and prejudices
of foreign origin.
The falsehood about the Anglo
American alliance is the cheapest
and most transparent demagogy,
intended to secure the support OF
the to-he11-with- England elements
of our citizens.
The historic Democratic principle
of tariff reform is abandoned for
the sake of holding the votes of
Populists and Silver Republican
protectionists.
Being Organic, it is necessarily
illogical and reckless. It falsely
accuses Our Government of waging
wanton war on its former allies in
the Philippines. In SO declaring it
brands as liar every American
soldier and foreign resident of Ma
Mia who has reported ON the cause
and beginning of the outbreak Of
February 4, 1899, and accepts as
true the unsupported assertions O
the Filipino junta and its cham

One advantage about Grape-Nuts Food
Is That 1t Is pre- .digested in the process
Of manufacture; that Is. the starch con-

formed into grape sugar In exactly the
same method as this process is carried
out IN the human body, that is by the
use OF moisture ana long exposure to
moderate warmth, which grows the
uiastase IN the grains and makes the re-
markable change from starch to grape
sugar. Therefore, the most delicate
stomach can handle Grape-Nuts, and the
looa Is quickly absorbed into the blood

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-11-08

every nerve to raise an armed force in
Southern China to exterminate the ma
tive Christians, to kill the missiona-
ries, and to drive the foreign devils
into the sea.
The United States has withdrawn
from active participation in the pun
ishment of China, though she has a
very defined policy as to what shall be
done when peace negotiations take
really a tangible form, a policy which
ma moreover, include a threat of
armed intervention, supposing some of
the powers insist upon the partition of
China. Great Britain's policy chimes
with that of the United States and
Japan's does also.
But no terms of peace and no ar
rangement of a commercial nature
can be made until the Chinese Court
is made to understand it's position with
regard to the rest of the world. The
position Of superiority to all nations
of the earth must be broken down. So
long as that idea remains in the I'M
perial mind, so long will the Chinese
court consider itself justified in break
ing treaties and in indulging in acts
of violence and arbitrary power to
all foreigners who may be within the
borders of the country.
The work of thoroughly humiliating
the Chinese Court and teaching the
Empress and her numerous constella"
ton of Manchu princes, their proper
place in the world seems to have de-
volved upon Germany. That there will
be a campaign in the spring, there
now seems little doubt The peace
negotiations must fall through when it
is found that the Empress though
seeking peace with one hand, is letting
loose fire and sword with the other.
The end of the Chinese question is by
no means in sight.

THE CENSUS.

The population of the United States
is over 76,0O0,O 900 millions. Hawaii's lit
tie chip of $4,000 is lost in that vast
sum. But it is an all important matter
to us of the territory. The total gain
in the United States, including Hawaii,
whose population in 1890. for purposes
of comparison has been counted IN, is
thirteen and a quarter MILAN, giving
a percent gain of q per cent.
In round numbers the population OF
Hawaii ten years ago was 900 there
has therefore been gain of $4,000 dur
ing the period, which is a little more
than 90 per cent. This is a phenomenal
increase. OF course the comparisons are
made with the census of 1890, in order
to agree with the calculation on the
mainland, where the census is taken
decennially. We have had, however a
check midway, as it weres The Hawai-
ian census was taken every six year, so
census was taken in September The
United States census was taken in
June 1900. Between the two dates there
fore there was about three years and
three quarters The 1896 census gave in
round numbers 1000 so that in the pc
riod abouve named there was gain of
$4,000 or about 40 per cent.
This is showing immense vigor as
compared with California, our nearest
neighbour whose population during the
past decade has increased 22.9 per cent.
while the city of San Francisco in the
same period has increased LAG per cent.
In short time we may expect the DO
pulation of Honolulu and the various
districts of the Islands. The fuller de-
tails as to nationality, age, sex, social
relations, commerce, schools churches
and so forth will not be unavailable for
some months in all probability.
