MR. CLEVELAND'S POLICY.

The annexation question in the--

United States took a new phase whenthe word rcai lied there about the lowering of the flag. It at once went intopolitics. Before that time it had notbeen made a distinctive issue in thepartisan press and hustings, but theopportunity which the event of Aprilgave the Republican papers to assailPresident Cleveland could not be resisted and so they went at him hammer and tongs.

Ordinarily such a Republican risingwould have been hurtful to the causebecause it would have turned the Democratic party, now dominant in American affairs, against the annexationistmovement. Happily the effect wasotherwise. The strongest Democraticpapers in the country were smartenough not to let the Republicans againmonopolize a patriotic issue, so theyjoined hands against their own adminlstration. 1 ne worms war-cr- y "upwith the stars and stripes!" came to berepeated in half the Democratic journal-o- f

the land. As a result the administratton, assuming that it approves thecourse of "my special commissioner,'finds itself on the minority side.

The question now is, what will theadministration do? When Mr. Cleveland wanted to return the capturedConfederate banners to the Southernpeople, the shout of protest which wentup in the North from Republicans andDemocrats alike, brought him to a haltThe flags staid in their place. Inmany other cases, notably in that whichhad to do with the enforcement of hisfamous civil service order and in therecent decision to re appoint none ofthe office-holde- who were in placeunder his administration, Mr. Cleve-land has shown himself to be quiteamenable to an aroused sentiment buthamong the public at large and in the narrower camp of his own party. Yc believe he will readily see that it will notpay him or the Democrats to go furtherin the path which was marked out onApril 1st. That is the lesson whichDemocrats and Republicans alike aretrying to teach him and we think hewill heed it.

Kf.ai.ly this is sad. One of throyalist papers contradicts our stateinent that the Boston's troops landed toprotect American propcity, with analleged remaik of Col. Blount that thelanding struck him as a huge jokeWhereat the royalist writer lifts the brayof him to remark that the Star has been"cuttingly refuted." Perhaps nothinghas appeared since the stury about I'resident Cleveland saluting Paul Neumannand Prince David, which so well takesthe mental measurement of the Holo-mua'- s

"editor" as this alleged rebuttal.Where is the Fool Kilter ?

Under the new press act the namesand places of residence of the pro-prietors of each Hawaiian journal mustbe kept standing in its columns. Asthe proprietors of the Star numberabout a hundred, it is to be hoped thatsome modification of the rule may bemade which will permit the names ofthe managing directors only to appear.However, if worst comes to worst, wewill go ahead and give the whole roster.There is no one on it who has anydesire to skulk in the background.

Adou Chailes NorUhofT(may his trib catch flea?)Awolce one night upon the bland seas,Anil saw within the moonlight of hi? room,A dewl writing in the book of doom."What writest thou?" he said with cheekl afire"The names of thoe who play the tuneful 'liar.'''And i mine there?" said Nordhoft. "Nay, not so

Replied the devil. NordhofT spoke more low,Uut cheerily still and said, "llefote 1 die,"I'll play it beht or know the reason whj."The de? il wrote and vanished. The next night(He'd read the IlttalJ by a sulphur light,) .He came again with horns and tail bedightAnd named the men who play the "liar" best:And lo I Charles Nordhoff name led all the rest.

If all the iron that has entered thesoul of the Uiillelin since the Star'ssuccess was gained could be sold for

junk and the proceeds given to theunhappy creditors of the royalist organ,there might be some chance of thatmoribund print getting through thesummer.

The Lawn Party.

TJte lawn party this afternoon givenby the Missionary Gleaners on thegrounds of V. R. Castle was most en-joyable. There were a great manypresent and the special entertainmentsas well as the music, delighted

THE NORDHOFF LETTER.

Some Echoes From the Chorus of Publie Indignation.

Editor Star: I will not attempttoanswer Nordhoff's letter, as 1 have notime to nail all of his lies, but one littleextract is quite sufficient to show hisutter unreliability.

He writes as follows :All of both parties frankly acknowledged

that the natives, forty thousand in number andall of proper age, able to read and write andirouetit up umler American nmsionaty train

ing, with a very few exceptions, ate stronglyopposed lo annexation.

NATIVES Ol'POsK ANNEXATION.

I wish to emphasize this fad confessed byail the annexationists I have seen that thenatives arc solidly opposed to annexation,1 here arc against these 40,000 natives, 1,92bAmericans, men, women and children, most,though by no means all of whom want andcry out lor annexation. I lie leaders of theseare heads of the failing piovisional government.

You will note his intentional deceitful expression, "natives all of properage 40,000 Americans, including women and children, 1,928.

Keferiingto 1 brum s Almanac, 1893page 12, you will lind:Native males; including boys all ages. 18.364

, males 3,oS5Hawaiian-born- , foreign parents. 3,909American, males l,20SBritish, " )i2German, " 72gNorwegian, " '55Portuguese, " 4.770Oilier European nationalities.. 417

15.345

Just one remark more: All my funily belongs to "Hawaiian born, foicignparentage, and they all are good Ha- -wanans ana American annexationists.

I also believe that more thin one- -half of all natives and half-caste- s areon our side and that the rest will followwithin two months after annexation.

Your Annexation T.

Rebuke Number Two.Editor Star: Mr. Nordhoff had

been only one day in Honolulu whenhe sent off his leinaikable letter ofApril 8th to the N. Y. Herald. Didthe editors of that paper consider thatfact, when they held up Mr. Nordhnff'sreport on the Hawaiian question as afinality, which would be conclusiveonce lor all with the i'resielent andSenate? Without referring to thedates, nothing more is needed thanthe contents of the letter to prove thatthe ideas were supplied by the exQueen's envoys on board of the Ala-meda. The writer may possibly haveglanced at the Ilolointia after landing.

As a sample of Mr. Nordhoff s blundering I will not call it by a worsename take his statement ot the supporters of annexation as consisting ofthe "102b Americans, men, women,and children." He excludes all therest of the 20,000 whites, the greatmajority of whom, including about allthe very intelligent and capable Portu-guese, "want and cry out for annexa-tion." His reasoning is evidently this:the United States have no call to con-sider the claims of any but the American born people in Hawaii. Thewishes of all other whites are of noaccount whatever.

He especially ignores with scorn theclaim upon American consideration ofthe two or more thousand whites ofAmerican descent who were bjrn inHawaii. These are strongly Americanin sentiment and in attachment to thefatherland, where large numbers ofthem were educated. The claims fAmerican born residents to a voice inthe matter are very commonly deridedas that of mere adventures and traders,here ly sullerancc. 1 hen when amuch larger number of Americans bornhere ask to be heard, they are calmlyignored by this judicial arbiter of ourfate, as not Americans at all, and there-fore having no claim to be consider, d!

I he peculiar force of our claim tobe dealt with as an acclimated AmericanColony in Hawaii is that the manythousand whites horn here, are largelyof American birth, and are mostly educated in schools of American tone, andtrained in an American business andsocial atmosphere. Americans visitinghere unconsciously forget that they arenot still in America. I hey feel athome not in a foreign land. All thisgoes to prove how ripe the time has become for consummating in law theunion that already txists in feeling.

Mr. Nordhoff was a strong royalistwhen here twenty years ago. All hissympathies then Wire with King Lotand his arbitrary constitution. He isstill on the side of "divine right andabsolute power, and sees nothing butwrong in the acts of those who refuseto be trampled on by degraded andarbitrary monarchs. Our people hadmany kind thoughts toward this manwhen he landed heie. He has provedhimself unworthy of regard. Hp mayperhaps have been born in the UnitedStates. An American heart he docspossess, nor understand. Hawaii.

THURSTON'S OPINIONS.

HE GIVES THEM TO A CHICAGOAUDIENCE.

A Symposium at the Union LeagueClub-- An Exhibition of

Hawaiian Pictures.

"What Shall He the Future PoliticalRelations Between the United Statesand the Sandwich Islands," was thesuhitct selected by the committee ofpolitical action, of the Union LeagueClub for discussion at last night's ad-journed quarterly meeting. And inorder that the question might he morethoroughly understood in the discus-sion, there were one or two gentlemenpresent, who were able to give to theUnion Leaguers something of a per-sonal nature in regard to the situationin Hawaii. One of these was the lion.Lorrin A. Thuiston, charman of thecommission appointed by the I'rovisional Government to the SandwichIslands to tender the annexation of theSandwich Islands to the United States.Another gentleman, whose c mtributionto the evening's discussion was alsovery interesting, was Charles 1) Irwin,who, with the aid of a stereoptican,presented a series of views of Hawaii.This feature was a novel departure forthe club and was appreciated.

the stereoptican exhibition camefirst. It lasted an hour, and, as Mr,Irwin explained, it was "An imaginarytrip to Hawaii. 1 he views were re-produced from excellent photographsand began with a view of the deck ofa Pacific steamer. The prettiest bitsof Hawaiian scenery were shown, tocether with the royal buildings, thepublic edifices, and many of the residences, so noted for their beauty andunique surroundings. Portraits of Kalakaua, Liliuokalani, Kaiulani andother natives were shown and describedvery wittily by Mr. Irwin. When "OldGlory" was s iown floating in the airon the flagstaff from which Mr. Mounttook it down, the applause which aroseshowed plainly what the members ofthe union League Club think of theannexation question. Mr. Irwin coneluded his lecture with some splendidviews of the Mauna Loa volcano, and aseries sf views of the crater of the wonderful mountain.

At the conclusion of Mr. Irwin'slecture he was enthusiastically applauded, and then President Peck introducedMr. Thurston, who said, m part:

"I am glad to be a guest of theUnion League Club t. Thecause that I represent is one thatgrowing, and I am especially glad tobe able to present my views i f annexation to the brains of Chicago. Afterhearing our side you can take whatI have said to your homes and consider it as an American question, as itis not a partisan question in any manner. It is not Democratic. It is notRepublican. It is for the benefit ofHawaii that annexation should takeplace. Some of the arguments thathave been advanced have been to theeffect that annexation is a sugarscheme. The planters have not beenthe ones who have urged it on. 1 heyhave opposed annexation.

Mr. Thurston then described themany evolutions that have recently disturbed Hawaii. He compared thesentiment in the islands on the occasion of these outbreaks to the wave offeeling which swept over the UnitedStates when Sumter was fired on. "Hutthis rebellions were put down," saidthe speaker, "because right was on theother side. It was in all cases a matterof Anglo-Saxo- n grit against the objectsof lower class blood.

The labor question was handled without gloves by Mr. Thuston, and hisarguments convinced- - his hearers thatthere should be annexation. "Therecan be," said he, "no responsible goveminent in the islands until the lateroyalty has been completely wiped out."Mr. Thurston, in referring to theleprosy argument against annexationspoke of the lepers that exist in different parts of the world and proved thatthe lepers in Hawaii are belter lookedafter than anywhere else, theresaid he, as mixed a population in Chicago as there is in Hawaii, but thpeople do not intend to changesplace.

"We want," said he, "not necessarilyto come in as a btate. We want a responsible government. We have no poluicians mere, ana we want to ne surewhen we go to bed at night that wcan get up in morning and know thatthere is no revolution on hand. Withthe United States flag floating there inthe daytime, hauled down at night byman wearing the United States uniform,and hauled up again in the morningwe can be sure that we have a something back of us which will control theheterogeneous population and save usfrom anarchy.

Mr. Thurston said that of the 20,000white population not 1 per cent wouldoppose annexation, if a vote weretaken. He declared tint with a prospect ol the destruction of Hawaiiroyalty, the hearts of the people havbounded with joy, and will not go backto the rule of the Queen without making a protest that will be most decisiv

"We must, said he, "have someresponsible government back ofand if America does not give us thprotection we ask we will be c nipelledto go to some other country for it. IfHawaii is left in her old conditionEngland has just as much right to increase her interests there as Americaand England is not in the habit oftaking a back seat where lur interestscan be benefited by taking a step fuward."

in concluding, iir. inurston saithat the annexation of Hawaii does notnecessarily mean the introduction ofgeneral annexation business for America. He said that with annexationHawaii would get an impetus in business that would equal that given some

Hauling Down the American Flag.The American flag hauled down !

Such is the news from Hawaii newsin some rcspi cts the most humiliatingand astonishing that this country hasreceived since the flag was hauled downat Fort Sumter. For the first time inthe history of the Republic the symbolof Atnetican authority has been with-drawn from territory which had beenformally declared under American pro-tection. For the first time in Amer-ican history American prestige has beendeliberately degraded by an AmericanPresident. It is no wonder that someof the gallant officers of the Mohicansaid, as they turned away from thescene, that they felt as if they "had noright to witness the act." livery Amer-ican worthy of the name must feel apersonal sense of shnme and indiguntion at such a cowardly and treacherous retreat from a p sition assumedwith the consent and by the invitationof the Hawaiians themselves, and recognized by the express or tacit approvalof civilized mankind.

The Cleveland government will here-after be known as the Administrationwhich hauled down the American flag.By that term it will go down to history;by that designatijn it will be stigma-tized in the mind and memory of everytrue American. The Hawaiian Isl-ands are American territory by everyclaim of justice, of vested interest andof world wide recognition. The Americans gave Hawaii civili. ition and res-cued the people from donrad.ttg bar-barism. Americans the pruperty interest of the islands, and tin-best people of the islands are Americansborn in Hawaii.' the island:, are nec-essary to the United States, fur unperative reasons apparent to any one whohas studied the naval and commercialinterests of the country. The hoistingof the American flag in Hawaii wasdictated alike by patriotism, by nrudeuce and by intellinent foresight. Itwas approved by the American people,with the exception of that elementwhose opinions are controlled by British affiliations and win se aim is tcplease the public opinion of London.

The wrong and shame of haulingdown the American (l,g at Hawaiishould be ledressed. Public opinionshould m ike itself heard, even in theWhite House, and the obstinate andjealous politician who apparently imagines that he can play fast and loosewith the honor and the interest of thenation should be made to feel the forceof that opinion. When President Marrison framed the annex uion treaty withHawaii, he consulted not his ownjudgment only, but the virtually unanimnus wishes of the American people,In reversing the course of the previousAdministration Cleveland has the peo-ple of the United States, who amplyindorsed that course, to reckon with.

Apart from the blot on the natinnalhonor of hauling dowi the Americanflag on territory which justly belongsto the United States, there is anotherand deplorable aspect to this despica-ble act. It will and perhaps it has al-ready been considered an invitation toinsurrection and massacre. The Hawaiian Islands have among their popu-lation many thousands of ignorant andbarbarous Asiatics with evil passions

. that readily find expression in outrageand violence. 1 he flag of the UnitedStates has been a warning that a powercapable of suppressing disorder and ofinflicting condign punishment on lawbreakers, was present to protect thesubstantial and intelligent portion ofthe residents. All that is now chang-ed. The flag that guaranteed peaceand security no longer floats in Hono-lulu. The vessels which brought newsof the lowering of the flag also broughtnews of the apprehensions which that

had naturally excited, and ofthe resolution of the men of Americanblood and descent not to surrender, except to irresistible force, the free government which has been organized inplace of that royalty which had proveditself as worthless as it was mischievous.It goes without saying that men of theAmerican race will defend their rights.whatever the odds against them, andhowever basely abandoned they may beby that authority which should havefelt it a duty to extend over Americanseverywhere the shield of the power ofthe Republic. If bloodshed and massacre and European interference are theresults of hauling down the Americanflag in Hawaii, the people of the united States will understand where the responsibility rests.

Are we to be, or not to be,i part of the Great Republic,seems to be the burning question of the day, and one wehad rather leave to wiser headsthan ours to solve; and whilegreat statesmen are wrestlingwith this momentous question,we want to have a little "poo- -iVoxv " with you on some othersubjects, that concern you aswell as ourselves.

Has it not occurred to youthat you've been wearing thatold hat long enough ! In theseprogressive times if you intendto be "in it," you've pot to keeppace with fashion. No matterhow otherwise well dressedyou may be, unless your hat isthe correct thing vou bear ashabby appearance.

We have already laid in astock of the Latest Mats of thecoining Spring and Summerstyles, in hard felts, soft feltsand straw's, and including a lineof the celebrated " Fidora"Hats, at present all the rage inthe United States. There istherefore, no necessity for youto hang on any longer to thatold Tile that bears such astrong resemblance to the hat" your father wore."

Believinrr that business willbe better in the near future, wehave not hesitated to keep ourstock full in all lines. Takecollars for instance : We havealmost everything you couldwish for. I f yon wear a stand-ing collar, just come in andtake a look at our " Narenta"or"Ardonia;" or if you prefera turn down collar, try the"Winnipeg" or "Goswell;" wehave have lots of others, andcan't fail to suit yon. Cuffs inabundance, links or otherwise.

Neckwear in profusion, scarfsWindsors 4-- in -- hands, and aspecial lot of " Boys' Bows;"suspenders in great variety,leather and woven ends, goodstrong, serviceable goods.

We might go on indefinitely,but space is valuable, and toenumerate everything we carrywould fill a pretty fair sizedBook. If there is anythingyou want in the men's line,just drop in and see us, and ifwe ain't suit you, we don't, be-lieve any one can.

If you should want a pair ofnice shoes, let us try a hand atfitting you. Did it ever occurto you

How much a man is like his shoes;For instance, both a soui may lose.Doth have been tanned; Roth are made

tight by Cobblers;Iioth get left and right;Hi'th need a mate to be complete;And both arc made to go on feet.

They both need healing; oft arc sold,And both in time will turn to mould.With shoes the last is first; with menThe first shall be the last; and whenThe shoes wear out, they're mended

When men wear out, they'ie men deadtoo.

lust before his departure f.r SanFrancisco yesterday on the Monowai,C. 15. Washburne announced to represcntatives of the press and othersthat he should return and marry adauchter of lohn Cummins. Mr.

Washburne is a newspaper man ol thecoast metropolis and left there forTlnnnliiln February 7. His w.fe. a re- -j ,jfined, sad-face- lady was at the wharfto bid him good-by- and wish him .11

It appears from the story which Mr.Washburne told freely and apparentlywished to have known here that heI, id not lived happily with his wife andso fell an easy v ctim to the charms ofMiss Cummins. He seemed to have

i ui.. ,ti;i,,,.t ,c i, i,,,imalic 1113 uiuii.. uf.iiuvtn.vf; J - ....v.taken abundant pains to acquaint him-self with the attractions of other nativeand half white women and reached theconclusion that she was the pick of theflock.

A gentleman believed to be Mrs.Washburne's lawyer arrived on the Mar-iposa to investigate. He said to aStak reporter that, some weeks ago,Mr. Washburne had written his wifegiving full details of his courtship andof his relations with various womenhere, to the end that she might sccuiea divorce and release him from hismarital vows. The wife was nearlydistracted and went weeping to herhusband's acquaintances, who advisedHer to go to an attorney. She did so,and the result was a letter from thelawyer, which Mr. Washburne receivedabout six weeks since, that if he would 'ilenl over. !iis interest - -in: the lierkelev, .homestead to his w fe she would freehim from his bonds.

In the meantime Washburne hadwritten his better half asking for aloan of $50 with which to buy an en- -cagement ring for Miss Cummins. AsMrs. Washburne had no funds and noinclination to meet the demand if shehad been solvent, the newspaper manwas obliged to await bis regular remit- -

tances. These were liberal and Mr.Washburne had no trouble, finally, insealing his new compact with a solitaire,

Politics, however, do not appear toenter very deeply into the calculationsof the pioneers and settlers who havelately taken up land through the country. notably on lhc Volcano road. Asto lots along the latter all the frontagehas now ht.cn taken up to the ::dmile. The far reaching economic resuits by opening up this land to settlement can be seen by a glance at therent roll which now amounts to over$1,100 per annum.
