The steamers from Asia give us much trouble in a sanitary way. It will be recall- ed how last August the Belgic brought cholera to Honolulu, through the conceal- ment of cases of that pestilence by the ship's surgeon, Bowie. Notwithstanding that fact, the Belgic brought the same surgeon here again last month, causing several hours’ detention of the ship for thorough examination by the port physi- clan. On the 11th of this month the Gaelic arrived with {0 Chinese laborers for our plantations from Hongkong, and one case of smallpox among them. It had also been learned that a case of “black plague” had occurred on board between Hongkong and Yokohama. Consequently the passengers were sent to the quarantine, and the 750 tons of freight was landed, after being thoroughly fumigated in the ship's hold by cur excellent fumigating apparatus recent- ly procured. It is nearly certain that all remaining passengers will be quarantined on reaching San Francisco. Cousequently a number of passengers booked for the Gaelic stayed over for the Australia, sail- Ing today. Miniater Willix in Trouble. Among these was United States Minister Willis, whose departure on his sixty days’ furlough has thus been postponed a second time. This much worrled, but really es- timable gentleman, is thus not unlikely to be seen in Washington a few day hence, especially as it is surmised that there is some tension in his relations with Secreta- ry Olney, as weil as with President Dole. It will be remembered that the minister had a serious difiiculty with the pres about the observance of January 17, having persuaded his diplomatic colleagues to join hum in making no reply to the official invi- tations sent them to observe that. anni- Nersary of the overthrow of the The complaint of this government and the correspondence were laid before Secretary Olney by Hawaiian Minister Hatch. The Advertier now reports that “information bas been received from Washington to the effect that while Minister Willis has not Leen censured by h rnment. his con- duct on January 17 1s disapproy Precisely what the distinction censure and such disapproval d pear. The morning px been an o relations Letwe: and the government ha in fact, all soc Unued after the 17th of January episode None of the officials of the government Were invited to be present at the Wash! ton's birthday celebration at the legation. nor were they invited to be present at the Hawes’ (British minister) dinner tendered Minister Willis lest week.” Our good Mr. Willis’ sensibilities were seriously disturbed last week by a copied paragraph in the same newspaper, so that he felt it necessary to claim something like redress from the government. pecting shortly to sail on the Gaelic, th minister paid an official farewell call to Mr. Dole and his cabinet. After the usual exchange of cocrtesies, he took occasion to call their attention to what he regarded as an insulting notice of himself, for which he thought the government’ was more or lesa responsible, the Advertiser t ing their official organ, und controlled by James B. Castle, a prominent government official. The Advertiser ts owned by a cor- poration, in which Mr, Castle Is a large stockholder. It has, for many years, been the leading organ of the reform party. It 1s, however, in no sense the organ of the government, which neither controls nor In- spires it. Mr. Castle and his brother, jate- ly minister at Washington, both doubtless Influence the ccurse of the paper. Mr. Willis was quite misled. As a foreign representative, the minister was undoubtedly entitled to’ be exempted from public hosiile attacks. The executive recognized this right, and while disclaim- {ng all responsibility for utterances of the Advertiser, and courteously expressing their regret for Mr. Willis’ wounded feel- ings, they promised to admonish the of- fending editor for his assault upon the representative of the United States. The admonition was duly administered, and the Paper appeared on the sccond morning with explanations and quasi-apology. What was the nature of the Advertiser's offending publication? It was the reprint- ing, wholly without comment, at the end of its editoriai columns, of a part of an editorial from The Evening Star of Wash- ington. You had said: “Mr. Willis has no value whatever in Honolulu. If any- thing, Le is a standing affront to people for whom the people of this country feel a wafm attachment.” Certainly these were not agreeable words for the Advertiser to thrust under the nose of Mr. Willis. One cannot help commiserating the worthy gen- tleman, who, after two years of endurance of adverse and trying conditions, finds re- echoed in his hearing such words of disap- proval as The Star awarded to him. One can but fear that the truth was told—a fact which falls to mitigate the pain inflicted. Esteem for the Minister. It seems due to Mr. Willis to say that he has generally made the best of a bad posi- tion, which he came to occupy without Wrong intention, misled by a grateful sub- serviency to Mr. Cleveland, who had stood his faithful friend. He has generally acted with moderation and courtesy toward this government. In his social relations he has made himself quite acceptable in Honolulu, and is personally much esteemed. While his original errand here created a tension in his relations to the government which time could not wholly relax, he has enjoyed the confidence of all parties in his integrity of purpose. He made a failure of his orig- {ral errand, in which a stronger positive- ness and determination might probably have enabled him to succeed, at least so far as to initiate an armed conflict. No one can doubt that the caution and scrupulous- ness which postponed his attempt to re- store the queen until success had become impossible were fortunate in saving him from the infamy of making war on a clvi- lzed American regime in order to restore one that was semi-barbarous. Mr. Willis’ predecessor, the eminent John L. Stevens, had a very serous collision with the queen’s government in 1892, on account of some violent animadversions on him in the chief organ of the queen's party. A boat had landed with wrecked seamen, and another boat was believed to be behind it in distress. Mr. Stevens was abustvcly criticised for not instantly dispatching the United States cruiser Boston in search of it. He complained personally to the queen, for which a futile attempt was made to censure him in the legislature. The real animus of the accusation against the min- ister was that he deemed it unsafe to send the warship away at a juncture when con- troversy in the legislature was excessively Tancorous, and the queen was making un- constitutional resistance to the will of that body. The ship did, however, soon make a few days’ cruise, and a steamer was sent 90 miles to the vicinity of the wreck. Meantime the missing boat had been picked up by a passing ship from Sydney and tak- en to San Francisco. Mr. Stevens’ well- grounded complaint at that time has been used by a royalist paper as a precedent to justify that of Mr. Willis now. Royal Portratts, I have just come from the senate cham- ber, which 13 the front portion fenced off from the spacious upper hall of the former palace. It is worthy of remark, as show- ing the courteous respect shown to past royalty, that the full-length portraits of Kalakaua and Liliuokalani have never been displaced from the walls, where they still look down upon the deliberations of the senate. All the old pictures of royal per- sonages remain in their places in all the rooms of the executive and the judiciary buildings.
