The Relief Society.


The good work of the Hawaiian
Relief Society is deserving of great
praise, and the management of tie
funds of the society shows that due
economy is being exercised to pre-
vent a total exhausting of the
moneys at the command of the
treasurer.
In a beleagnered town the CON-
mander. iu-chief does not give out
full ratious to his men when he
knows that the day of relief far dis
tant, and that he must use the pro-
visions in hand in most careful
manner if eventual starvation and
diseases from hunger shall not occur.
The ladies in charge Of the Ha-
waiian Relief Society are doing all
in their power to help the needy,
without breaking into the surplus
which is necessary foundation for
the noble society. Aged men who
cannot work are fed and housed at
the expense OF the society. Employ
ment has been secured for a number
of Hawaiians where they earn fair
wages, and constant Investigations
have been made in regard to cases
of destitution reported to the head
quarters. aud those in need always
find help.
Many exaggerated reports have
been published in regard to alleged
misery among the Hawaiians. One
of the recent cases was that OF an
old Hawaiian woman who according
to report in an evening paper was
found in her room, crouching in q.
corner of her bed, semi-nude and
emaciated, The report wac credited
TO sanitary inspector.
Mrs. Geo. i. Beckley, the Secre.
tary Of the Relief Society was seen
this morning in regard to the case
referred to, which had been investi.
gated by the society. Mrs. Beckley
stated that the old woman in ques-
tion was about 90 years of age aud
was living with Hawaiian relations.
Old Pauelua Waioloe halls from
Puma, and would have gone home
long ago if it had not been for the
quarantine. She is to certain ex-
tent bed.ridden and was just in the
act of changing her garments when
the haole inspector entered and the
woman scared and Miahila crouched
a corner groaued out the usual auwe.
That such action on behalf of the
old woman was very natural is fact
which will be believed by all who
know the customs OF the older gen.
erations of the Hawaiian. women.
The woman is by no means poor
or in need OF charity, as she owns
property valued at nearly $1,000.
The exaggerated reports by in
spectors who DO not understand the
Hawaiian mode OF living should b.
taken with a large grain OF salt by
the newspapers and the malihinis,
because through them harm is done
aud no benefits attained.
Mrs. B-ckley hopes that the Re.
lief Society will shortly decide to
make a substantial donation to the
Victoria Hospital, aud she was
pleased to mention that during the
week the Society had received the
following contributions: Consul
Mouet ION behalf OF the French
Government), $l9; Kspiolani Estate,
Sl5; H.lo and Olas concert, $50; a
lady friend -auorymous-$25, and

OUR HONEST GOVERNMENT.

We eau assure Mr.. Thurston's
organ that the first territorial legis-
lature in Hawaii will be very anxious
to look into the financial transac-
tions and the accounts of the gov
ernments under the monarchy as
we'll as those under the Dole regime,
which we are specially willing to
expert" The Advertiser will admit,
we presume, that the territorial leg.
islature will be one sided for some
time to come and that the wishes
of the Dole clique will not be re-
ceived favorsbly. There are old
scores to settle and, although we are
willing to let by-gones be by-gones,
the mass of the people will show
that the kernel Of the annexation
nut forced into their unwilling
mouths means that even the men
who ara called their leaders will
have no check on the voters when
they rush TO the ballot box in the
interest of their rights and call upon
the men, Hawaiians or haoles, be
they kamaainas or friendly malihinis
alike, to represent them, protect
them and alas! revenge them.
We differ with Mr.. Thurston's 5
organ when it says that the old sf-
fairs existing under the 2. G. or the
Dole republic cannot be brought up
before the representatives of the
people. We are ready to believe
that books and accounts will have
been destroyed and that important
documents in the archives of the
Foreign Office will be missing. AS
matter of fact, there may be docu-
ments interesting to Hawai's h g.
tory which will never be found again
and there may in other departments
be accounts that it would be OF vast
interest to those who live in Hawaii
now to sac published
There is one thing tho Dole re-
gime cannot deny and that is the
contemplate petty larceny of it's
servants. 1t is disgraceiul to hear
young Hawaiian woman, through
her guardian Mr.. MagooD, complain
ing of the loss and disappearance Of
her valuable calabashes, crockery
and brio a.brac from her house
while it was ouarantined and in the
care OF guards in the employ of Mr..
Dole's government. That her cloth.
ing, curtains, counterpanes, etc,
were destroyed through the fumiga-
tion process we have nothing to say
at present. She shared in Rat in.
stance the misfortune OF her COM
patriots through the imbecility of
the Board OF Health.
Her nelghbor Jared no better. He
was Hawaiian, his house was in
the hands of the guards and his
calabashes had disappeared when
he was allowed to return to his
home.
Oh! Honest Dole, what became OF
the swords and other personal, pre-
cious effects belonging to the King
when you entered Iolani Hale?

Denver. Col, Nov. 7.-Returns from
Yesterdays election are slowly coming
in. but sufficient returns and careful
estimates have been received to show
that Bryan's plurality will be from 30
600 to 81, coo and may reach 10000. The
Republican managers concede the Leg
islature TO the fusionsts by a majority
of Sc on joint ballot. Orman (Dem.),
ana the whole fusion ticket will have
about $4,000 plurality. In Araphahoe
county Bryan's plurality will be about
$500, though this will considerably eX-
coed the plurality given the State and
county tickets. The defeat of Senator
Wolcott for the Senate is generally

The Democrats figure that with but
slight gains they will be able to have
a majority of one or two on joint bal
lot, and thus replace Senator Culom
with Democrat. In the event of their
obtaining the control of the Leglsla-

cratic National Committeeman Dahl
man this afternoon stated that the Ne
braska Legislature will be fusion by
IL majority: that the fusion State
ticket is elected by about 5000 major
ity, and that the Bryan electors win
by 1900. Republicans are inclined to
concede the Legislature on the face. of
the present returns, but they allege
fraud in Douglass county, Omaha, and
will contest. So far the returns show
gains in the Legislature of 16 members
for the fusionists over two years ago.

turns in Nebraska are SO close as to be

for the Republicans, claims tonight
that Mckinley carries the State by
1000 or more, the Republican State
ticket wins by 5000 to 1000 and that the
Republicans have n majority of II in
the Legislature. Against this the DEM
ocrats claim Bryan carried the state,
though by Il narrow margin. of perhaps
not more than thousand; that fusion
has made a safe working majority In
the Legislatures that fusion State off,
GERS are elected by 5000 TO 5000. The
Legislature will be in doubt until COM
lplete returns are in. Indications are
that it will be fusion by n small ma
jority. Both parties are claiming the
lead on joint ballot.
DEMOCRATS CARRY LEGISLA-
TURE.
Omaha, Neb.. Nov. 7.-Complete
figures received the 20 of the 90 coun-
ties in the state. These counties poll
ed 10000 votes. or approximately one
third OF the vote of the State.
The vote of the 20 counties was re-
turned as follows:
Brayn. 1880; Mckinley, 10000.
These counties four years ago gave
Bryan 9S,O92; Mckinley, 34,4Sl.
This change. If maintained, would
come near wiping out the Bryan plu-
rality OF $4,000 of 1896. Scattering re-
turns from other counties show a
smaller percentage or loss. and indi
cate that the fusion electoral ticket
may win out by lead of about 1920
or 1900 1t is claimed that- Nhe Legis-
lature of Nebraska is fusion by AZ

An unexpected development is the fact
that the Republicans made their

of gain than was shown by the figures
