Lieut.. E. B. Thomas Departs.

Ted" Thomas leaves to-day by
the O. S. S. Queen after a long aud
interesting career in this country.
He has assiste d in in making his ory

months sojourn in his native city Of
Liverpool and placing his bright
little seven.year old daughter at
school, to proceed to South Africa
to show his skill as a master in his

assisting the Auglo-political devel.
opment OF the country.
E. B. Thomas was Lieutenant OF
Co. A OF the old and famous Homo
lulu Rifles, and was also one OF the
Citizens Committee OF Thirteen to
demand from King Kalakaua the re-
vision OF the Constitution OF 1887,
which resulted 10 the adoption cf
the new Constitution, the downfall
OF Premier Gibson and the appoint
meut of Mr.. Godfrey Brown as Min
ister Of Foreign Affairs.
Mr. Thomas, during the days Of
his prosperity was ever active in
politics and was one Of the leaders
Of the National Reform Party but
never succeeded in his ambition to
attain legislative honors. Msfor-
tunes, enough to discourage most
men, fell to the lot OF the man who
in the monarchical days had con-
structed many, If not most, of our
solid public and private buildings
at cost OF over a million dollars.

owing to his honesty and fraukness
OF speech he was arrested as "sus.

WILCOX AS A REPUBLICAN.

Robert Wilcox, ex.opera bouffe
Ievolutionist, ex-annexationist, ex-
monarchist, ex.restorationist, has
evidently become an ex.Independent
Home Rulist, and while his financial
circumstances will undoubtedly be
in q fat condition while caricatures
OF him have all ready been prohi-
bited in the Advertiser.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1900-10-30

The somerssult does not surprise
those who know Wilcox, but there
are those who will be surprised at
hearing such statement from the
lips OF the man who during the past
weeks daily have told the Hawaiians
that it was he, Wilcox, who virtually
gave the liberal franchise we have
in spite OF Republicans and Demo-
cratic deleg atoms from Hawaii.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1900-10-30

Will the voters who now woar the
badge 1T the Independent party
allow Wilcox to steer them into the
fold Of the men who stole their
country, into the missionary ranks
which they stand pledged to fight
to the better end. We think not,
but at he same time they should
ssk Mr.. Wilcox for an explanation
"f hl' sudden utilization with the
Republican party.

moral OF this Topic is thai, without
imputing blame to any one, THE
INDEPENDENT desires to confirm by
personal experience the statements
OF others that there is something
wrong in the method OF blasting
adopted by the contractors. 1t
may be that the explosive charge is
too heavy, or it may be that there
is almost dangerous carelessness
amounting to criminality in the
eyes OF the law. Whatever may bs
the cause, it is to be hoped that
more discretion may be used in the
future, for Honolulu does not de-
sire to become Ladysmith at the
hands OF her friends, although
they may be representatives Of
millionaires. We could give other
instances OF these explosive charges
but we refrain after issuing this
warning. 1t is "a fortunate thing
for the contractors that those

indication that it viii not have TO go
much further to catch the ore chutes.

are very bright for a great deal of
activity in Alta this year. Several COM
