Tho Hawaii HoLOraUA appears

Publishing Compant having be

decided to issne an English daily
pper to be published every after
noon. This step has been taken
uccording to the often expressed
desires on the part of our patrons,
and we hope it will bo satisfac
tory to them. "Wo have noted
with some amusement the haste
and glee with which our alleged
demise was hailed by the two
nuuexation-tfrguns. The Editor

of tho Hawaiian people, the

the whole country, and to the
fulfilment of that pledge, we will
devote all our efforts and all tho
means at our disposition.

TOPICS OF THE DAY.
Tho Star and the Advertiser
have taken occasion to repeat tho
lo invented some months ago for
Klitical purposes by themselves,
Hint Her Majesty the Queen has
been supporting this journal or
wis in any way financially inter
ested in it. We fail to seo what
possible benefit the annexation
cause can gtin by-tho constant
reiteration of this assertion which
both the editors referred to know
ivt bo a lie, but we shall confine
ourselves to once more stamp tho
statement of the two papers as
utterly fxlso and untrue and posi
tively declare that the Queen in
no way over 1ms been or is inter
ested in the Hawaii Holomua.

It is too b 'd abnit that ball at
the Hawaii n Hotel to-morrow
night, which is given as a fare
well t the officers on the Boston,
and as a welcome to the Phila
delphia officers, aud which does
not receive tho countenance of
the annexation club aud of the
Star ed.tor. Tue last named
complains because the b-ill is to
be given at tho Hotel, ai b aiding
which lias h ro3alist flavor, and
which is too small to hold the
members of the club. The St r
editor evidently intends to issue
invit.tions for the ball to his
chums in the club, and if the
2,000 Portuguese are included in
th.t number, the Hotel will un
doubtedly b- too small to hold
them. But ' the leading annexa
tionists" who prophecies th t
the ball wili be a failure, because
they "ain't going" should have
kept still until the' received
their invittions. It may sound
unnatural to tlio editor of the
Cl 1 . t i i .
oiar ana tue leading annexa
tionist?, but. it is yet a fact that
a ball can be given and be great
success, and that the officers on
the Boston and Philadelphia may
be able to meet all they care to
meet of Honolulu society without
a single member of the club or
tho St r ed tor being present. It
tn;iy seem iraposs ble to the great
guns in tho club and brother
Smith, "but thems are the
facts."
In the expedition to Ewa, the
Foreign Office was represented
by Mr. Hatch's Aidede camp
Major Potter. His presence is
accounted for by the possibility
that diplomatic negotiations
might have been necessitated be
tween t'ie learned Attorney-General
and the Leper, and tho
Major could then have been used
to carry the white flag or other
wise exhibit his military and
diplomatic proclivities.

We had decided to throw a
veil of oblivion over all the
ebullutious which havo appeared
in the annexation orcans for the
last two weeks, and we were pre
pared to ignore all the usual or
unusual rot which the two editors
hurrii d in during the suspension
of our uaner, but when Mr.
Jbhustono calls Editor Logan an
"excuse for an editor," we must
compliment him for speaking
about what he knows for once.
When Mr. Johnstone at one time
was- tho editor of the Bulletin,
Mr. Logan had constantly to be
"an excuse" for him, and satisfy
the clamor of the "devils" for
copy by writiug the editorials
himself. Tho reason why we
toll it not in Gath.
The Star contained a glorious
description of tho fertility of the
Puawaawaa land in Kona Hawaii
the other day. and made the
mouths of the "young men with
savings" in Honolulu water by
explaining the prospects of
making a fortune by t iking, up
homesteads in that God-forsaken
district. It was quite interesting
to read about the band of cattle
which the Star-correspondent and
other enthusiastic homestead
boomers drove to the fertile
plains of Pnuwaawaa ably assitst
ed by Colonel the Hon. C. P.
Iaukea homestead - promoter-in-chief
of'the P. G. The Star for
got though to tell its readers that
the last heard from Puawaawaa
about the baud of cattle was that
the boys were busy skinning the
horned cpxidrupeds everyone of
them having died from disgust
and despair by looking at the
Star's fertile homesteads. The
Colonel arrived in Honolulu with
out beiug skinned.

The P. M. S. S. China, Captain

Mr. Dreier is looking unusually
well, and has enjoyed his trip
greatly. The China leaves this

THE NATIONAL BAND.
We are authorized to state
that the item in regard to a con
templated tonr of the National
Band to the United States which
appeared in this morning's Ad
vetiser is utterly false. The boys
are going to remain right hero in
Houolulu and have no intentions
of blowing the horn for the bene
fit of Mr. Thuston or the other
annexationists. If satisfactory
arrangements cm be made with
acceptable parties, the band may
decide to go to the Midwinter
Fuir in California.
A number of leers in the
