back the development of the islandof Hawaii. If that is too long ago foryou, think of the experience of Mr.Dillingham and his Oahu railroadscheme. Every time he was on thepoint of securing capital for an extension of his road his plans were upsotby wars or rumors of them. If we werea part of the United States the Oahurailway would make a circuit of Oahuinside of 12 months. I believe thiswill come. Because the Oahu SugarCompany has been started within thepast month is no evidence that wehave any greater stability than before;it is merely the outcome of a prosper-ous year in sugar, and the prospects ofannexation. People had capital, andthey wanted an outlet. Believing thatannexation would come, they haeflocKed to put their names on thestocl? subscription list. I look at it r.sone wf th' many good things to comewhen the country is a part of theUnited States.

"Now, let us look at the political sido.Hawaiian?, as a rule, have an alohafor Hawaiian institutions, and theyare loth to give them up. The fact thata majority of them have not taken theoath to support the existing Govern-ment is proof of this. Practically thesemen are without a country, for theyhave no vote and no voice in the affairs of the country. As citizens of theUnited States they would stand at thepolls on an equal footing with the mil-lionaire; there is nothing in the Constitution of any of the States whichprovides for a property qualificationin voting. As I understand it, all menarc free and equal, and only educational qualifications are required. The intelligence of the Hawaiians is recojnized by every foreigner who comes incontact with them, and this being thecase they would enjoy the same rights Iof franchise as the citizen of New York

The lanai ofthe Hilo Hotel was draped in flags andbuntingS, kindly loaned by the captains of the several vessels in port.The dining room, which was cleared fordanefng, looked very pretty, draped asit was in the many new signal flagsof the schooner Nokomis. During theevening Messrs. Scoville and Jacksoncontributed some pleasing vocal selections. Dancing continued until 11o'clock, when refreshments were served, and the young folks joined in singing various selections.

The first race, for the silver trophycup, donated by Capt. William Matson,took place on Saturday, the 16th. Thecourse run was triangular, and overabout 2 .miles, the circuit being mudetwice.

elopment Will Follow.

ine general tendency among iia- -waiians is to holu back from annexation, presumably owing to the factthat the benefits of the measure havenot "ecn brought out with sufficientproniineee before them. In the meetings of tne Annexation Club it is anoticeable fact that foreigners consti-tute more than 90 per cent of the peo-ple in the audience. The idea of having a meeting for the Ilawaiians withthe speakers selected from that na-tionality is now being considered, andit is probable that one will be held inthe near future. A number of leadingiiawanans nave been convinced thatannexation is the only thing for the?country and among these men aiesome with reputations as orators.

The latest to come into the fold cfannexationists is John Lot Kaulukou,ono of the best known Hawaiian law-yers of the Honolulu bar a man of intelligence and remarkable personal attractions. In a conversation with arepresentative of the Advertiser yesterday Mr. Kaulukou gave his reasonsfor changing his views.

"I am convinced that annexation isbest for Hawaii-becaus- e !t wiu restrictAsiatic immigration to a greater extent than it now is by this Government. We are now overrun with Asiatics, and those people are graduallymaking inroads upon the country.Every one knows how the Hawaiiaus,as well as white people, have been affected by them. 1

We who have children to educateshould consider what the future willbe to them; at the present rate of im- -migration to the Islands, by the timsthe children finish their education they

work at the side of a coolie laborer.This is the way I view the outlook.and it is certainly not encouraging toanyone but Asiatics. I am aware thatthe Japanese have a treaty with theUnited States similar to the one withthis Government, but then there is sta-bility over there that we cannot counton here, and if the United Stateswishes to take radical steps in thematter of changing the treaty, it isnot likely that any other Governmentwould say nay. But little Hawaii, in-dependent and alone could do nothing.

"Another thing. As an integral partof the United States and with that Gov-ernment at our backs, I believe Amer-ican capital will come into the countryand waste landsrwill be developed andrailroads will be built. I think, too,that perhaps some of the monopolieswe now have may have competition,so that everyone in the Islands will bethe better for it. To sift it down peo-ple want annexation from selfish mo-tives; mine is because I believe every-one will be better off with a stableGovernment.

"There are sections of this islandthat are fertile and capable of grow-ing crops, which will find ready salein Honolulu markets, but there is noway of bringing the crops to town, andthe land is idle, nor will it be devel-oped so long as capital is timed. Sta-bility means strength, and when for-eign capital sees that a country isbacked by stable Government, it willno longer be timid. If we were an-nexed new industries would spring up,and I do not believe they would be mo-nopolized to an extent that Hawaiianswould be excluded, they would be onthe same footing with the whites andwould be in advance of the Asiatics.

"Talk about progress; why it movsas slowly here as it does in some ofthe South Pacific Islands. People withmonev have been afraid to invest inanything above the ordinary, and .'h'"' I

Down There.

James Keau, brother-in-la- w of Stephen Desha, well known among the Hawaiians here, "returned a few days agofrom Tonga, where he has been re.iding for the past nine years.

Mr. Keau was a member of the Legislature for five years previous to hisdeparture for the South. In 1SS7, whenthe historical riot took place in Hon)lulu Mr. Keau was a member of theRoyalist wing of the House of Represtntatives, and as a friend of the lateKing, he called upon him to join Inrepelling the opposing forces, but Ka- -lakaua was inclined to be peaceful andtake things as they should come. Thichanged Keau's sympathies, and he decided to leave Hawaii for the Samomgroup, where J. E. Bush was at tha

him Hawaiian Minister.ltemaining at Apia a snort time anu

finding no opportunities for makinglivelihood he set sail for Tonga. Inducements are offered there to anyone who wishes to cultivate land andKeau planted 400 cocoanut trees, anddid a thriving business in copra forseveral years. For his own use hecultivated potatoes, yams and bananas

During the past few years his busi-ness has suffered through bad manag?- -ment on the part of a foreman in hisemploy, and he decided to give up hisplantation and return to Hawaii. Tiesays the Government will not sell anyof the land, but by the annual paymentof taxes, anyone may locate and cultivate the land for his own benefit.

Mr. Keau states that he knows ofonly three Hawaiians in Tonga; oneis a house painter who left here whena child. He has no intention of returning to Hawaii, as he has a largfamily in Tonga. Two others, Kahalalili and Charlie, went to Samoa on theKaimialoa years ago afterwards settieu at tonga, iney are young mennow and doing very well in their adoptea nme.

rr a! rri ins uainfs ui iut' luuua uiujijnumber about 20,000, and they are loyal to their sovereign. There are onlyabout 100 white men at Tonga. Mr.Keau was asked twice to be a caudidate for the House of Representatives,but lie declined for the reason that hewas not familiar with the language,and he would not be allowed at anytime to criticize the actions of theKing. Mr. Keau was, during two ofthe five terms he was a member of theHawaiian Legislature, a member ofthe Independent party, and he wantedthe same privileges in Tonga that hehad enjoyed in Honolulu. The capitalcity of Tonga is Tona Tapu. It is quitea small place, but the white residentsha vo done considerable toward mod- -

dent of Honolulu. He is inspector ofGovernment lights in that town. Hehas been there since 1SSG, and has nointention of returning.

Mr. Keau is now 54 years of age, andwill begin life anew in Hawaii. Forthe present he will reside with FrankHarvey, whose wife is one of his rela-tives.

DIES IN KOIIALA.

Death of James Holster After Long;and Painful Illness.

James II. Bolster, who has been inKohala for several months past seeking recovery from the disease of consumption, died at the home of a rela-tive, Mrs. H. T. Walker, January 14th,at 5 p. m.

For three weeks prior to his deathhe was practically helpless, havinglost the use of his lower limbs. Threedays before his death he lost the useof his arms, and during the remainderof the time he was confined to his bedand could takb only liquid food. During his illness he had the constant at- -atention from Mrs. walker and thesvmpathies of every one in the community.

Rev. Byrd visited him frequently,and conducted the funeral services, atwhich there were many floral tributesfrom lady friends in Kohala.

The funeral took place on the following day. The sad news was broughtto his relatives in Honolulu by MrsWalker, who arrived on the steamerKinau yesterday afternoon.

Deceased had many friends in Honolulu, among the most stanch of whichwere members of the Y. H. I., withwhich organization he was activelyconnected.

He was for several years reporterfor the Bulletin and later shipping re-porter on the Star, and left that position on account of his health. The de-ceased leaves a large number of relatives in Honolulu to mourn his loss.

AN U.NFUinL.NATi: PLANTATION.

Tin; Ewa plantation is a speci-men of what comes of a schemeconducted ly i" who try cx-jHriiiicii- ts.

jump over the tracesiiud refuse the wise counsel of theHainted grandfathers.

Its management had tlie un-businesslike audacity to suspectthe wisdom of "contract labor,"ami gut lost in the woods whilechasing up the false gods of co-operative or free labor, which isan abomination in the eyes ofthose who believe? in old and re-liable gods of contract labor, witha jail within a stone's throw of it.Their vagaries should, by thistime, have reduced the fertileplains of Ewa to a goat pasture,and made the hearts of the stock-holders glad with many cheerful"Irish dividends' besides drivingthese managers out of the San-hedri- n

of the intelligent planters.This plantation, largely com

posed of castles in the air, hashad the impudence to turn outlast year the highest average cropof sugar per acre ever known onthese Islands, with a good dividend behind it. Free contract labor had something to do with it.

No respectable artesian wellshould have consented to furnishwater to such a scheme, and thecane quite forgot itself in refusing to serve notice on the management that it would refuse togrow tinder anything but "penalcontract labor." The liberal useof tho fermented juice of free labor on plantations should not beallowed, without a protest, evenif many would regard it as quitesimilar in its effects to "C! rant'swhisk v," which Mr. Lincoln wish-e- d

to pour down the throats ofmany of his generals. Let us re-spectfully regard the jail whichis the temple of contract labor, asthe old traveler regards the gal-lows which he saw standing inthe midst of a desert: "ThankGod, I am not beyond civilizationyet."

Perhaps the Ewa plantation,which seems to be the nursery ofsugar cane cranks, will aggra-vate its audacity by trying someday the experiment which isnow being tried successfully inQueensland the employment ofwhite free -- labor contractors. Itwill be a difficult undertaking,but so was the building of theCentral Pacific railroad acrossthe Sierras, which the "best" engineers said could not be done,but which the insufferable cranksStanford and Huntington did.

When strict Sunday laws areenforced, particularly in the Unit-ed States, among the -- first to beheard from in opposition is theeitizen of German descent. Huteven in the great German stronghold "blue laws" crop out in anunexpected fashion, which showsthat even the German liberal Sabbath has some strings tied to it.For instance, a baker in Iierlin... .lias been indicted for tlie crimeof playing worldly airs on thepiano during church time. He in-formed the policeman who heardthe desecration that it was hiswife's birthday. Hut the officerinsisted that the family must bemerry to the tune of the "OldHundred." "In the Hour of Trial."or of similar inspiring music. Thebaker, taking no notice of thewarning, played "Pop Goes theWeasel" and "The Dude's March"and a summons was served.

No man of average commonsense presumes that the characterof the labor in this country canIk? changed in a day. or even dur-ing the administration of Presi-dent McKinley. No one supposesthat Ohimv" ;md .Japanese canbe written out of the country. Let

of the States are beginning to appreciate that the labor elementcuts no small figure in the affairsof the nation, and policies are being shaped accordingly. If thepeople here hold their nose to thegrindstone and fail to keep watchover the drift of affairs in theITnited States, they will wake upsome line morning to an appreci-ation of their wondrous lack offorethought.

Recent telegrams regarding theconclusions reached bv the Ilrit- -ish Pacific Cable Commissionhave given the impression thatnotwithstanding the decision ofthe Commissioners, there vet remains a possible obstacle in ob-taining the sanction of the vari-ous Colonial governments. Thepress of the Rritish Colonies isnot disposed to look upon thisfinal sanction and appropriate thefunds as a matter liable to jeop-ardize the success of the project,for, as the Vancouver News-Advertis- er

remarks, "the membersof the Commission were of coursefull v cognizant of the views oftheir respective administrations,and the latter were doubtless in-formed of every step in the Com-mission's proceedings, it may bereasonably concluded that the de-cision arrived at simply gives ex-pression to the policy decidedupon by the imperial and colonialgovernments." From this we areto suppose? that the question waspractically cut and dried, withthe exception of details which theCommission was to furnish. Nowthis has been accomplished, it isanticipated the appropriationswill In? promptly forthcoming.and the cable built before 1000 atthe outside.

PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

The Manitoba census shows a population of 193,423.

In the IJritish Museum, London, theMuseum of the Academy of Science aiParis, the National Museum at Viennaand in the several Institutions for theadvancement of science, there may beseen specimens of birds eggs whichare almost as large as a two-gallo- njug. These eggs were laid by the epi-orni- s,

An observer at Dumfries, Scotland,says there is a stretch of heather inthat district which in the season ofbloom is simply swarming with bess,and the nearest hives are from six toseven miles distant.

In France, when a railway train ismore than ten minutes late the company is fined.

An auditor in a Japanese Theater isallowed, for a small fee, to stand up,and the unfortunate individual behindhim has no right to remonstrate or torise and get a peep at the stage. Hemay hear, but he cannot see.

At Waterloo the musketry fire of theFoot Guards, armed with the old clum-sy Brown Bess, was so fatal that theheads of the charging French columnsmelted away before it without advanc-ing just as they probably would havedone before machine-gu-n fire. AtLinkerman the Mine bullets are saidto have cut lanes in the dense massesof the Russians.

.Matters of License to He Submit-ted by I'rcMdcnt Dole Today.

President Dole will this morning re-submit to the Cabinet the matter oflicensing the proposed beach hotel. I:is understood from a good, though un-official, source that the point at issu.which caused the matter to be agair.taken up. will be conceded by the Gov-ernment, and that the license will 1

t granted upon the terms proposed bythe promoters of the hotel scheme.

After considering the matter the firsttime it wa.s presented, the Cabinet con-sented to the issuance of a license tosell liquors to patrons of the table orthe living rooms of the house. Noth-ing was said of patrons of the bath-ing establishment, which be an im-portant adjunct to the caravansary,and this subject constituted the secondappeal to the Cabinet, which reopenednegotiations. Tb promoters informedthe Government that they had no de-sire to operate a flaloon at the beach,and that only bona-fid- e patrons of thehotel would be erved with refresh-ments. In this they include' only lodg-ers, boarders and bathers.

Gets UP a Calendar andWrites Poetry.

Cems In Verse by the Long: HairedPoet of the Sierras.

The Londoners watch each year forPhil May's Calendar, because it hasnumberless comic illustrations in penand ink by this well known cartoonist.Encouraged by May's success JimmySwinnerton, the artist in bears of theExaminer, this year inflicts one of hisown on a confiding public. JoaquinMiller, "the poet of the Sierras," can-not paint, so he makes word picturesin rhyme for a very pretty calendarfor 1897. A few have been receivedhere by Mr. Miller's friends, and theyare prized highly.

It is a beautiful souvenir, arrangedunder the direction of the poet by Mr.Harr Wagner, San Francisco. Thecalendar is gotten up like a Christmascard, containing four leaves, repre-senting the four seasons of the year,and is enclosed in a box. The leavesare bound together with a silk cord.

On the front leaf is a picture of Mr.Miller. To the left and below are thedays of January and February, and atthe bottom the following lines by thepoet, entitled, "There is Only One To-day:"

"Come listen, O love, to the voice ofthe dove!

Come, hearken and hear him say:'There are many Tomorrows, my love,

my love,There is only one today.'And all day long you can hear him

say,This day in purple is rolled;And the baby stars of the milky-wa- y,They are cradled in cradles of gold.Now, what is the secret serene, gray

doveOf singing so sweetly always?'There.are many Tomorrows, my love,

my love.There is only one Today.' "

On the second page of the calendar,are the montns or spring larcn,April and May. Around the calendarspoppies are entwined, and below isthe following sentiment from the poet'spen:

Behold! The Holy Crail is found,Found in each poppy's cup of gold;And God walks with us as of old.Behold! The burnish bush still burnsFor man, whichever way he turns,And all God's earth is holy ground."

nn thf third naere. where are themonths, is a view of tall nine

trees and palms, the sea and the risingsun, and the following musical accompaniment from the poet:

"Come to my Sunland; come with meTo the land Where the sun

and seaAre wed forever: Where pine and

palmAre filled with singers: Where the

tree and vineAre voiced with prophets: O come

and youShall sing a song with seas that

swirlAnd kiss their hands to the cold white

girl--Tothe maiden moon in her mantle of

blue."

Turning the calendar again, and allthat suggests the advent of winter inNorthern climes appears. On the leftare tall mountain peaks, capped withsnow; below, a winter scene on a coun-try road; in the right-han- d corner is ahouse, far up on the mountain heights,with everything about it suggestive ofthe season. Here and there over thepage are arranged the months of Sep-tember, October, November and De-cmb- er.

Above mountain scene at thetop are the words: "Lone as God;white as a winter moon." Beneath thescene of the house on the heights ap-pears this verse:

"And, oh, the voices I have heard!Such visions where the morning

grows!A brother's soul in some sweet bird,A sister's spirit in a rose."

Altogether, the calendar is one ofthe prettiest seen this year. Mr. Millerhas sent copies to several Honolulufriends.
