SPREADING A LIE.

In publishing an excerpt from an ar
ticle on Hawaiian Crown Lands by
Hon. George II. Van Houten, the Des
Moines Daily Capital repeats lie that
has been going the rounds of the Main
land press and can doubtless be traced
to the DOle-Thurston bureau Of mis-
representation.
Van HOuten says. "Onc of the argu-
ments made in favor of compensation
(to the Queen) is that the Hawaiian
Legislature passed bill allowing her
$4,000 for the lands and that the Gov
ernor vetoed the bill"
The Hawaiian Legislature never
passed any measure granting the
cX-Quecn $4,000 for lands nor did the
Governor ever veto any measure re-
lating directly or indirectly to the for
lier ruler of the Islands.
The last Legislature granted the eX-
Queen pension Of $4,000 for the Pc
r!Ud Of two years. This received praC.
tically the unanimous legislative vote
and the measure carrying the apprO-
priation was signed by the Governor.
The proposal to pension the eX-
Queen was endorsed by all parties dur
ing the campaign and no objecting
voice was heard in either legislative or
executive circles. This endeavor to
keep the Governor posing before the
Mainland readers in his old role OF
holding down the personal Or political
schemes Of Queen Liliuokalani are as
false as the motives Of the men who
promote the sentiment.

MERELY A MAKBSHIFT.

The official organs assert that the
pro rata arrangement for carrying
along the government departments will
make plain sailing for the remainder
of the period.
Plain sailing for whom and for what?
From what source will the govern
ment draw funds to pay Fire Claims
awards. There are residents of the
city who are destitute, actually in want
for the necessities of life by reason OF
their losses in the plague fires of two
years ago. The awards will soon be
made and there is an appropriation to
pay the judgments of the court Where
will the Treasurer obtain the money?
Has he sufficient funds to make even q
pro rata payment?
Kewalo is in a most disgracefuI
state and the appropriation has been
made to carry on much needed i'm
provements in that district. Upon
what financial source can the Terri.
torial Treasurer draw to satisfy this
appropriation?
The pro rata scheme is miserable
makeshift; a positive evasion of the
plain duty of the Governor. The de-
partments are already handicapped and
this last move strengthens the handi'
cap. There Is nothing progressive in il
nothing that carries anything more tC
the people Of the Territory than a re-
assertion of the determination to con
tinue the financial blockade.

their presence be proven as an actual
menace to American labor
The writer declares the Chinaman
TO be honest, and says that no one ever
heard of a dishonest Chinese merchant
or banker. As to how far that may be
true we will not stop to discuss. We
arc reminded, however, that American
experience with the Chinese during the
Boxer troubles was not of character
to create very high opinion of the
Chinese susceptibility toward truth
and veracity. Upon the general vir-
tues of the Chinese race he further
says:
In conclusion, let me say never saw
a drunken Chinafnan. | never saw a
Chinese beggar. never knew or heard
OF lazy one. sat as county judge
Of Grant county, Oregon, for four
years, where the miners had sold out
to the Chinese to such an extent that
the larger part of the mining property
was Chinese. Yet in all that time there
was not one criminal case involving a
Chinaman and but one civil case, and
in the latter case a white man was
finally indicted by his fellow citizens
for perjury.
Mr.. Miller's last proposition is sum-
med up in the words: 1T is but equity
that the Chinaman should come here
IL we go there. This land is too great
and too good to forget equity. re-
peat, we need the Chinese people quite
as much as they need us, and that is
much indeed"
After all is said, and of course
joaquin Miller has right to his say,
IT is safe to predict that opposition to
the reenactment of the Chinese ex-
reed shaken by the wind. Regardless
of what may be said to the contrary II
Is the understanding in this country
that American labor Is opposed to be-
! ing made to compete with Chinese la
Dor, From all appearances a majority
of both Houses of Congress stand ready
to obey that sentiment. President
Roosevelt made his own views upon
the matter plain when he said in his
message to Congress:
With the sole exception OF the farm
ing interest, no one matter is of such
| vital moment to our whole people as
/ the welfare of the wage workers. II

sity be of no effect. Mr.. Robinson full
fills all the legal requirements neces-

Robinson's name has been withdrawn
and Kepoikai substituted the action
must have been the result Of energetic

A Chicago millionaire is very wroth
because his son married a chamber
maid who is admittedly woman Of
good character but not the sons equal
in social standing" Popular sympathy
will undoubtedly be with the son and
the chambermaid, and ten to one IL

It would be found that the time was
when chambermaid would add dignl-
ty to the family's social standing"
OF all the disgusting freaks American
life produces the social standing OF
the newly rich is the worst.
