LeadingRepublicau organs were
candid enough after thn buttle to
givo great credit to prominent
Democrats for tho Btnnd they took
on prinoiplo against tho campaign
of free Bilver coiunge. Sorao of
tho beat fighting by tongue and
pen, for what is deemed tho causo
of national honors, those journals
conceded hud been done by able
old lino Democrats. Yet to tho
gently breathed proposal that
Beeiug the triumph of
McKinloy iB acknowledged
to have boon not u partisan
one tho gold democracy should
have representation in the Oabi
not, the sainu organs respond:
"Oh, no! McKinloy stands too
conspicuously as tho represonta
tivo of high protection to have
any revenue tariff heretic among
his counselors." Personally, thoro
is not the least doubt that McKin
loy is more of a protectionist than
auything else in fact, from his
dubious record on the sound
money question, ho was nothing
else except a figurehead in tho is
BueB of the late campaign. Yet,
Bince tho "honest money" cry did
moro than tho protection cry, if not
to elect him at least to swell
his majority, tho exclusion of any
tiuetuio of golcf or uuy other
democracy from his counsels
ought, in all conncience, to to
justified on tho square ploa of
undivided party luln rather than
the false one of an assumed
notional verdict in favor of bald
McKinleyism.
THE REAL ARTICLE.
Under political union with the
United States tho people of the
Hawaiian Islands would have
more real iudopondence than they
have had since tho institutiou.of
representative government in tho
country. There reolly has novor
been government by tho people,
of the people, for tho people, here.
Occasionally, tho people havo dis
played a somblanco of self rulo by
upottiug schemes of tho shrowd
foreigners who wero tho power
behind the throne. They havo
done the same thiug ofteuer by
acting as tho tools of such schemes.
Now and thou they showed their
resontment at tho oxhcuU'ou of
certain laws obnoxious to them
but regarded as vitul to tho wel
fare of tho couutry by foreigu res
idents by addiug riders to the
appropriation of salaries whereby
tho bauds of tho oxocutivo wero
forced to make changes in the
persouuel of tho civil service.
Whenever the native Hawaiians
exorcised their theoretical freo
dom radically it was al
most invariably with results
that left tho quality of
their independence more strained
than over somo cream camo off
it and the proportion of skim milk
was greater than over. If Hawaii
booame a Slate in tho Amoricun
Union, tho vote of a native dock
laborer in Honolulu would count
for aB much in his couutry as that
of n New York millionaire in tho
government of tho ''Empire State"
of the Union. More than that,
. tho Hawaiian elector's vote would
be as poteut as that of the Now
- York financial king in deciding
questions of national polioy in
tho Unitod States Senate. It
might oven bo the deciding vote
in the selection of the President
-of the United States.
Unfortunately for the scheme
tho opinion of the Gall, that tho
Pacific cable bill has a good
olianoo of passing at the prnsout
session of Congress, ia not sup
ported by tangible reasons. Which
of tho two bills up nt tho previous
session is meant anyway ? Con
gress is uulikoly to railroad
through nuy cable Bubsidy for
twenty vears, without careful
scrutiny of all tho conditions.
Tho ratea for messages in tho
Spalding franchiso granted by
Hawaii are known to bo exorbi
tant, being proportionately to dis
tance far highor thnti thoso of
other cables. This country may
as woll consider, without further
delay, a cablo project exclusively
its own, as otherwise it will wait a
long timo for tolcgraphio com
munications. Somo time ago tho Bulletin
gave information obtained on
ropulablo authority of gross acts
of oppression upon Ohiueso and
Japanese in tho rural districts
of the island of Ilawnii. A lato
Hilo paper gave instances of out
rageous abuses of tho liconso laws
in tho persecution of Chinese. It
is timo that the Government look
ed into the matter.
Nothing would give Hawaii a
better claim for admission to the
Union than the uniting of hor
shores with thoso of tho United
States by means of a telegraph
cablo constructed exclusively by
Hawaiian enterprise.

The Japanese pheasants im
ported into tho province of
British Columbia and carefully
protected for tho last two years
havo taken to their environments
und multiplied in numbors bo
youd tho most Bunguino expecta
tions. In view of tho large num
bers on Lulu Island tho Provin
cial Government declared an open
season from the lBt to tho 15th of
November last for cockbirds ouly,
and tho Vancouver sportsmon
have improved tho opportunity.
Among tho birds bagged by ono
of them was a magnificent speci
men of tho pheasant breed a
cookbird menMiring twenty two
iuuhes from tho tip of the beak to
tho end of tho tail and tipping
tho scales at two and a half
pounds. This in tho largest
pheasant over shot in the pro
vince. A local sportsman discussing
the subject of pheasants with a
Bulletin man this morning Baid
tin Wnianna mountains wore full
of pheasants and that fiuo shoot
ing was to bo had. The Japanese
pheasants imported somo years ago
havo crossed with the English
phoasant and the result is a dis
tinctly Hawaiian bird, which
possessos all tho good qualitioa of
both and, strange to say, is larger
than either.

Corner of Fort and Merchant Sts-
Santa Claus is extremely
fond of receiving letters from

offers a valuable prize of some
kind to well behaved children
and this year he 'has notified
Wall, Nichols Co., who are to

in his name a beautiful French
doll to the Honolulu girl or
boy who writes him the most
original letter. Any little one
under ten years of ag. may
compete for the doll which is
suro to bo highly prized by
tho lucky recipient. Now,
girls, this is your opportunity.
Brush the cobwebs and dust
of puzzling questions out of
your minds and write the old
gentleman a nice letter; some
thing different from anything
you have over written before.
You may ask your papas and
mammas how to spell tho
words but tho thoughts and
good wishes should bo all your
own.
On honor, nowl
Letters may be mailed in the
letter box at Wall, Nichols
Co's store between 9 o'clock
next Saturday morning, Nov.
28th, and 12 o'clock noon of
December 24th, tho day before

Tho doll will be on exhibi
tion in one of 4thoir largo show
windows during tho nbovo
period. Tho judges of tho
merits of the letters received

sentatives of tho press of
Honolulu.
