In accordance with the opeia bouffe methods which prevail in Royalist poli tics, certain men got together a few- weeks ago to lay a plan to revolt and to blow up the Government with dyna mite ; and having agreed on various details, they forthwith went out in the open and began to tell about them to every sympathizer, real or pretended Who came along. In twenty minutes- or was it fifteen? the Government, the Marshal and the local press knew all about the scheme; and the police were ready, when directed, to gather the conspirators in. Utterly unsuspicious, the garrulous Guy Fawkses kept on running at the mouth until they had given themselves out so completely that no lack-of-evidence consideration inr soiesurpnseiornoDoaye.se was , . , . . ... unprepared lor such an outcome three of these talkative Nihilists were appre- hended yesterday and put behind strong h,rc ln Aht f ,1,.. . lm.. . . vj uuuui. ui mi, tn j i unit, .. Uiey win be joined by others. The revolutionary plan itself wis quite well laid, the trouble being that it was so poorly carried out. There was to be first a deal of public talk about "waiting upon the wishes of'lhe United States," "patiently biding the time, "being confident that America would restore the Queen," etcetera-; and once the suspicion of the Government had been disarmed, there was to be a tos sing of bombs and a general Royalist emeute. Carried out by men of reti cence and strength of character there might have been a time, previous 10 the removal of the troops from the bar- racks, when this conspiracy would have L-iven thp Government much trouble : but in the hands of loquacious busy- ver' amusing in the pitying rondesccn ... , ' ' sion with which ceruiti Cockney uuu'" ""u l-uulu "Ul KLCl' "' Using their own intrigues it was an easy plot to deal with. So efficient has been the Marshal's secret service, so alert and unsuspected have been the Hawkshaws of the Gov ernment, so garrulous have been the ex-Queen's friends that we doubt the existence of any Royalist movement or the- occurrence of any Royalist meeting, the particulars of which are not in Government possession. Many people who flatter themselves that their plans' are unknown are under sur veillance, and it would be impossible for any movement to rehabilitate the monarchy to take place without bring ing upon the authors and participants the swift vengeance of the law. lo those who have feared that too much dolce far nieute had come over the powers that be, the prompt, tffective and conclusive work of yesterday will be a revelation. They may hereafter feel perfect confidence in the vigilance, firmness and protective capacity of all upon whom the duty of maintaining the status quo in Hawaii has devolved It remains to the chronic folly of the Holomua man to advance the idea that people are taking up land adjoin ing large ranches for the purpose of having a place on which to stock their stolen cattle. That's usually the way with cattle thieves they try to have their plunder kept as close to its real owner as they can. At this rate we shall soon hear of burglars in theo lomua who hire vacant stores next to those they have robbed for the purpose of shelving their ill gotten gains. After a little more of this sort of thing the readers of the Royalist sheet will begin to wish that its writers would drop their goose quills and resume work with their scissors on the pages of Ambrose Bierce. A man who does not know why the restoration of the ex-Queen by the United States is "diplomatically im possible" should attend a political kindergarlen. He would learn there that when the American republic recog nized the Provisional Government, sent a Minister to it accredited in amity and friendship, and received a Hawaiian envoy in leturn as the minister of an independent power, it precluded itself from declaring war agjinst the Ha waiian authorities because of the acts establishing the government thus re cognized. And there we are ! As the Star remarked a week ago : "It is about time to cut the comb of this strutting Royalist fowl." That's what the Marshal thought. BRITISH ADVICE. An Effective Letter from a Well-Known Citizen of Honolulu. Editor Star : 1 was much inter ested in an able letter by the London correspondent ol the Ntw York Nation, which you reprinted the other day. it is an excellent illustration 01 jaincs Russell Lowell's famous article "On a Ceftain Condescension in Foreigners," . e. towards Americans. 1 he simple reason wny mere is no probability of British intervention in Hawaiian alliirs, may he lound in the terms of the ioint convention between p,reat Britain and France, bv which those two Powers "engage reciprocally to consider the Sandwich Islands as an independent State, and never to take possession, either directly or under the title of a protectorate or under any other form, of any part of the territory of which they are composed.' This is not a guarantee against any other Powers, but a mutual engagement as stringent as human language could make it. The Government of the United States has been more than once in viled to unite in a tripartite convention of this kind, but has always declined to limit its freedom of action. At the present time, too, France is not in a mood to accommodate John Hull by relaxing any of his engage ments. 1 he continued occupation ot Egypt by British troops has given great umbrage to r ranee, which has shown readiness to retaliate by annoying Eng land in Newfoundland, the New Hebri des and elsewhere. The indifference affected by English writers, nnri their denial ol the value ol tr)e Islands as a naval station is simply a case ef "sour grapes. lohn Bull is generally considered a good judge real estate.

They do nut seem to be aware that Uncle S-m has reared some thirty odd children, whom he has brought up from the condition of territories to that of full statehood. In the various acts of Congress for organizing territorial governnv tits may be found a wide range of types to select from, from those of Louisiana and Florida to th se of Arizona and Idaho. And there is suiely statesman ship enough, both in Congress and in the Islands, to frame an act adapted to the special conditions of the future territory of Hawaii. While thanking John Bull for his gratuitous advice, we cannot help ques tioning its disinterestedness. Observer. LUTHER SEVERANCE TALKS He Tells the Americans About Island Affairs. Buffalo, N. Y., June 5. Luther Severance, postmaster at Hilo, Hawaii, and for fifty years a resident of the islands, is visiting friends in this city. Speaking to-day of the situation in Ha waii, he said: "The better class ( f the foreign element want annexation. Any government formed of the people of the islands coulu not last long, There would be so many conflicting elements th it anarchy would be the Outcome. The present Provisional Government, which is practically military government, could not have lasted as long as it has had it not been for the prospect of annexation. "If the United States refuses to take us Great Britain Will surely step in and establish a British protectorate by- placing Princess Kaiulani on the throne. With the assurance of a gov ernment such as would result ffom an nexation, capital would find a great field for investment by developing our sugar and coffee lands. There are thousands of acres of the best coffee lands in the world that can be bought for $1 per acre. In three years the coffee plant can be ftM into bear ing. It yields a handsome profit and offers an ideal life to the planter. "I am vice-president of the Annexa tion club of Hilo. I should say that the people rare very little what the form of government is so long as we are assured of the protection of the United States. Perhaps a territoria government would be best." Speaking of the course pursued by Commissioner lilount, Mr. Severance said : "I am inclined to be pleased with it. He can't fail to see that annexation is the only thing for the Islands, and I feel sure he must be convinced that it will be a great boon to the United States. I am confident his report will be in favor of taking us under the wing of the United States." Restoration day will now subside and give Incarceration day a show. BY AUTHORITY.

Aim at the Drake And you are bound to hit some of the ducks. This is precisely the same with Wampole's Tasteless Preparation OF Cod Liver Oil. It aims to cure; Consumption, Hits the Mark, too, and it most effectually breaks up Colds, Coughs, Hoarseness and all Throat and Lung troubles that cause this disease. It is natural logic to conclude that :f Wampolks Preparation of Cod Livf.u Oil "has' power to prevent Consumption, it sure ly is able to cure these lesser emergencies. This vigor-making, fat pro ducing preparation .is Absolute ly Tasteless, in so far as Cod iver Oil is concerned. All you notice is a delightful flavor of Wild Cherry and Anise. But the purest Norwegian Cod Liver Oil is there all the same. It is a great Ulooct en- V 111 richer. Best of all it is a natu ral food that in its stomachic effects, actually assists its own assimilation. In Pulmonary or Bronchial troubles it is unequalled. No t s 1 one doubts tne value ol L.oci Liver Oil, but not every one is able to take it. WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION removes the nauseous objection and actually makes Cod Liver Oil palatable.
