INCONSISTENT SYMPATHY.

We fully agree with the Star that
q gross in injustice was done to two
Porto Ricans, who we're imprisoned
10 Hilo after pleading guilty to Q
charge, OF which they were innocent, !,
their plea being caused by their utter
inability to understand the language
OF the Court or know what offense
they were charged with having COM
mitted. The Star soars to lofty
peaks OF eloqaence, caused by its
righteous indignation. How truly
beautiful it is to read the glowing
lines in fat black type aud feel that
we have men of such hums sne sen IT,
ments in our midst. Is that the
same Star which, in 1896, saw inno I
cent men torn from their families
and cast into dungeons here in Hos
nolulu, without uttering a words6f
protest. but simply eggipg on ~
further outrsges the mad hirelings
OF government crazy with fear I? Is
that the same Star, which wanted
the gore Of decent citizens, who. al
though absolutely innocent, were
made the victims of the rioting hire
lings and adventuiers A, mis-,
carriage Of justice is always sad
spectacle, but we must ask the Star
to save aome sympathy for those
outraged in 1896, who now finally
are face to face with just redress
they should have and would have
obtained years agossi if there had
bssu sparks ofimsdhood, gist Of
honor even in thes bosoms OF the
clique represented by the Star.
