The Base Ball Game.

Last Friday was very disagree
able day for ball game, the wind
blowing furiously all day, some
times the binding dust would COM
pei the players to stop until it would
cease bit. The game was a very
good one considering the day.
The Ashland boys chose A. F.
German to umpire the game, and he
gave almost universal satisfaction.
However, we regret, there was a
little difficulty during the seventh
inning over a batted ball. The
umpire declared it fair ball and
would not reverse his decision.
Aside from this everything went
nicely, the Ashland boys being very
gentlemanly.
The Meade nine ''fell down" in
the first inning, and let Ashland run
in four scores. They held them
down to three during the rest of the
game while Meade steadily gained.
The score was as follows:

rotary of the treasury. Then the oath
of office was administered by Chief JUS
tice Frear. Immediately after signing
the oath Governor Dole gave his inau-
gural address.
In his inaugural address Governor
Dole traced the history of Hawaii
and paid a tribute to the states
manship of kamahemah. Continuing, he
said:
"The pressing demands of agriculture
al. operations for cheap Held labor, to-
gether with the great influence, will
continue in the past to be obstacles to
such development of citizen population
as shall safeguard the. political future Of
Hawaii. The two enterprises are mu-
tually hostile The one is interested in
men as machines. the other as factors in
the development of the state.
AS the control of such corporations
gradually passes into, the hands Of those
who are without the restraining influence
OF local and traditional associations and
are not interested in social growth of the
Hawaiian community this danger, may
become more threatening then hereto
fore. No moneyed interest should be al
lowed to stand in the way of the develop
ment of a pure life in any part Of the
territory of Hawaii
statehood for the territory is. the gov
ernor said. destined to come in due time.
The military review ended the formal
ceremonies of the day. The governor and
his cabinet left together and entered the
building to hold a reception in the old
throne room.
Governor Dole has made the following
appointments:
y. r. Dole. attorney general.
"a. M~cCandless, superintendent of
public works.
A. T. Atkinson, superintendent OF
public instruction.
81. Brown. commissions Of public
lands.
H. c. Austin. auditor.
H. c. Meyers, deputy auditor.
A. M. Brown, high sheriff.

Said the Butte Miner a few days ago

o. ~ SAS Wv
Mckinley, the man who did not want
to go to wal with Spain, and Roosevelt,
the man who wanted to have the fight
called off on account of the heat and
the short supply of patti de fois gras
truffeled, make up a ticket which ought
to catch the military spirit Of the
younger generation.
What is there in the facts of history to
justify such a paragraph as the above?
Is it by such arguments that the dem
ocratic press proposes to prove the I'M
worthiness of the republican ticket and
establish the error of republican poll
cies? Was Mckinley wrong because he
did not want to plunge this country into
war if it could be honorably avoided,
and does the Miner really believe that
Theodore Roosevelt was not a brave and
loyal soldier, Sinking no duty and fac
ing death for the honor Of the old flag?
What do the members of the 1st Mon
tana volunteers thinn of the democratic
press and the democratic party, any
way?

the history of the OF Ing

inc when Governor Sanford B. Dole. first
executive of the new American territory,
was i~naugurated. The oath of office was
aiken and the inauguration ADDRESS WaS
delivered on the spot that was the sce1s
of the other two events-the reading q
the all-important proclamation OF 1877

he first appeared as the leader ard for

government for annexation. The palace

was decorated as in 1898. It was ablaze
with the red. white I'M blue and crowded
with people. The stars and stripes were
everywhere. and they made brilliant all
the grand stands and a huge American
flag floated on the staff above. As usual
in all large gatherings in Honolulu there
was a great variety of races. Whites,
natives, Chinese, Japanese and POrtu-
gueSe were together though the whites
and natives outnumbered all others by
far, and whites were a majority over all.
The natives were well represented. how
ever, both in the throng that crowded
around the steps of the building to hear
the governor. and arnong those who oc-
cupied places Of honor ON either side of
the central stand.
The day was a very not one. and the
people hunted for shade as they waited
for the ceremonies to begin.
Promptly at 10 o'clock the governor
with his old cabinet and staff officers
and the chief Justice. entered the central
grand stand and there was no delay In
beginning the ceremonies. Prayer by the
Rev. Timeteo, a native preacher, was the
flrst on the programme.

DUTY CT THE CITIZEN

If il were not for the innate mean
ness Of the democratic party it would be
most pitiful to observe how hard up 1t IS
for argument in his campaign. IL mas
not a single issue upon which 1t can can
didIy appeal for the support of any hon
est man. Without apologizing for insult
ing the intelligence of the average cltl-
zen no democratic organ or orator can
this wear solicit the suffrages of the vot-
ing population oft his country. THERE'S no
figure or fact known to men in this year
of our Lord that can be adduced in aid of
democratic hopes in the present emer-
gency. No patriotic American can dis
cover in any situation or condition grow
ing out of the war with Spain any rea-
son for voting a want of confidence in the
republican party. The manufacturing
and commercial interests of the nation
afford no argument against republican
policies. The condition of business in no
section of the union offers any pretext for
voting in favor of democratic precepts or
practices. There is not a human being
on any rostrum or tripod in the land who
can give any reason why the democratic
party deserves to live or why it does not
deserve to die. We doubt whether even
one of the automatic voting machines in
New York could be induced to register a
vote in favor of giving William Jennings
Bryan a chance to do to this country and
this government the things he would like
to do. The Boer issue, the Porto R;,an
issue, the Philippine issue have all gone
by the board and nothing has come to
replace them. The democrats offer no
policy Of their own they point out no
mistake of their opponents, they adv"-
cate no principle and no practice; they
simply stand off and find fault and thrcw
mud and swear and lie until they are
black in the face-that is their platform
and plan of campaign all over the United
States. Pick up any democratic paper
and what do you see? Amy sensible sug-
gestions? Any arguments, any proof OF
charges against republicans, any thing
but inane drivel about Hanna who is
hated by democrats because he knows
them and their methods? Surely in the
present condition of things there is nc
reason for the existence of the demo
cratic party. No act of its life will be sc
becoming az it's death. 1t is a party with.
out justification except as a refuge TO,
