QUEEN LIL’S PARDON Hawaii Has Now Settled Down to _ the New Regime. TALK ABOUT JOHN W. FOSTER’S VISIT The Feeling in Opposition to An- nexation to the United States. THE SUFFRAGE QUESTION Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HONOLULU, November 6, 1896. The full pardon extended by the govern- ment te Liliuokalani seems to call for some notice in this correspondence. The subject was laid before the council of state on Oc- tober 23, and by them unanimously ap- proved. On October 27 the pardon was ce- livered to the ex-queen. All the proceedings were extremely quiet. No previous intima- tion of intention had been made by the ex- ecutive. The people generally manffested no interest in the matter. The local press was almost absolutely without comment on the subject. Entire apathy seemed to prevail about the formerly great personage. For more than a year Lilluokalany had been in the enjoyment of substantial lib- erty, having been released on parole in September, 1895, from the confinement she had suffered for eight months in the upper part of the executive building, her former palace. It will be remembered that in the preceding February she had been convicted by a military commission of the crime of misprision of treason and sentenced to im- prisonment for five years and a fine of $5,000. She had been proved to be cog- nizant of the-futile insurrection of January 6, 1895, made for the purpose of restoring her to the throne. Since her enlargement she has lived very quietly, and there has nowhere been manifest any disposition to initiate further attempts to overthrow the government of the republic. Mrs. Liliuokalani Dominis, ex-queen of Hawaii, has evidently become a “back She forms no part of any one’s cal schemes any more than if she had deceased. Doubtless her formal abdication before her triai has done something toward this result, although it would count for lit- tle if her former adherents continued loyal te her, which is not the case. They have very generally come to recognize in her a willful and resentful disposition, which has alienated them. Whoever has not supported her in all her schemes through thick and thin has been made to feel her lasting dis- pleasure, even though she may have made temporary use cf them. Whatever loyaity to monarchy or purpose to seek its restora- tion still abides among natives and half whites—no doubt a good deal—probably turns in the direction of Kaiulani.” Doubt- less there are many of the people who look upon this untried young person as their possible queen, and who hope for some con- junction of affairs to arise, some new deal of the cards, which shall establish Miss Cleghorn as the representative native mon- arch. All such must feel, however, that there are at present no favorable signs in that direction. Somewhere lately, 1 forget where, there appeared a suggestion that universal harmony would be easily secured by allowing Kaiulani as queen to exercise nominai power, leaving Mr. Dole and his colleagues to continue in actual power as the cabinet, to do all the ruling! Hawall for Hawaiians. The main significance discernible in such & proposition as emanating from a royal- ist source is its illustration of the despair to which that party are reduced. The whole aim of the royalis*s—natives and half whites—has hitherto been to gather all the ruling power into native hands, and to exclude foreigners. This was pre- cisely what Liliuokalani aimed to accom- plish by her attempted coup d'etat of Janu- ary, 1883, which dethroned her. She was supported in that attempt by a great zeal on the part of a majority of the natives, many of whom were excessively indignant when she drew back intimidaied by the attitude of the whites, and were ready to slay her and her recreant iainisters on the spot. For many years the doctrine had been diligently propagated by Kalakaua and Liliuokalani, that the Hawaiians owned exclusive rights in the government of the country, and that foreizners were in- truders and must be kept from exercising any voice in public affairs. The war cry was “Hawaii for the Hawaiiais!” Had the natives and rulers been cordially will- ing to leave the practical conijuct of the government in the hands of representative white men, who possessed the necessary capacity, the islands might have continued indefinitely under the native monarchy. The revolution of 1887, which wrested a new constitution from Kalakaua, wes ex- pressly for the purpose of securing con- trol of public affairs to the capable whites, leaving the king practically a figure heac and putting an end to his pernicious and disgraceful meddling. Kalakaua plotted to restore the old regime by means of the futile insurrection of Bob Wilcox in ISSY, to which Mrs. Dominis was privy. Lilivo- kalani undertook to do the same thing b direct public fiat in 1893. The whole ser: of conflicts forms a chapter of con’ contest for political control betw: incompetent and incapable nativ walians, whose methods of goverament could not rise to civilization, and the able and intelligent whites, mostly born here, who were directing the great and multiply- ing commercial and productive interests of the islands. Had Hawali continued to be as formerly a remote and isolated group, far from the great currents of ocean traftic, she might easily have been left under the ccntrol of the aboriginal race. But after commerce began to center here, and a vest agricultural interest grew up in the hands of the white men, an ignorant native con- trol of the government became no longer endurable or possible. The men who di- rected the commerce and production of the islands were compelled to take entire pos- session of government. It is therefore a significant fact, when the native royalists have advanced so far in their perception of the logic of events, that they are now ready to concede to the whites all that the latter insisted on five and ten years ago—that the native monarch should retain his throne only on condition of remaining a figurehead. Of course, they are altogether too late in their offer. Hawaii has completely sloughed off the decrepit monarchy, and has become habit- uated to the methods of republican govern- ment. The cduntry can no more resume its former monarchical status than a crab can get back into the shell it shed last year. Miss Kaiulani need have no fears of ever having to carry the burdens of state upon her feeble shoulders, or of losing the independence of private life. Hawaii will never have any use for her, beyond vkat it has for any pretty and exemplary young woman, such as she is supposed to heve developed into. Mr. Foster's Visit. A few days ago the Hon. John W. Foster and wife arrived at Honolulu from San Francisco. They propose to spend here about three weeks. Mr. Foster has at- tained much higher rank in public life than any other statesman who has yet fa- vored us with his presence. Having oc- cupied the position of Secretary of State at the time that Mr. Thurston and his col- leagues visited Washington in February, 1808, for the purpose of securing a treaty of annexation, Mr. Foster himseif drew up that treaty and signed it. That fact ren- ders him a most interesting guest to this government and to all partjes favoring an- nexation, even had he not gained such eminent distinction in diplomatic labors at various courts, and especially at the close of the late war between China and Japan. Various courtesies have been exchanged between Mr. Foster and members of the executive. Mr. Thurston has been more in personal conference with Mr. Foster than any other gentleman, a natural conse- quence of their intercourse nearly four years ago, as well as of Thurston's superior abilities, although he has been entirely apart from public affairs for a good while, and immersed in his law business. The eminent diplomat has naturally been quite reserved as to any possible business or political errand he may have in Hono- lulu, It has been surmised that he comes on business about a proposed cable across the Pacific, Thurston being the local at- torney for Col. Spalding, who owns the present conditional concession from the Hawaiitn government. A more probabie and obvious surmise !s that Mr. Foster feels deeply interested in the problem of CET WELL AND STAY WELL GET RID OF WHAT MAKES YOU SICK AND STAY RID OF IT. It is #0 simple to be well that we wonder why ‘there are so many sick people. ‘Come to think about it, must be because they don’t know what's made them sick. If they knew that, they could prevent it, and when they were sick in some cases cure themselves But so long as we don't tuke more care of our health we shall always be more or less sick. The simple rules of health are: Keep clean, take exercise, eat good food, scour out your stomach, ‘This last means: Don't tolerate indigestion. Cure it with Shaker Digestive Cordial. A stomach full of undigested, fermented, putrid food is the un- healthiest thing you can think of. Half our diseases and troubles come from the polsons of undigested food. More than half of them could be cured with Shaker Digestive Cordial, More than half, because often when we think wo are sick we are only weak, and a course of nourish- nig food digested without effort by the stomach (with the aid of Shaker Digestive Cordial) would reinvigorate the whole system and make us well. A ten-cent trial bottle will prove it, At drug- gists. Write for “interesting book to The Shakers, 30 Reade street, Hawaiian annexation, and has come to Honolulv to study the question on the ground. After the active part which the ex-secretary took in forming the treaty, and the violent upsetting of his labors’ which President Cleveland so speedily dealt, it is natural that in view of a pos- sible early resumption of the undertaking, Mr. Foster should desire thoroughy to in- form himself about it. It is, indeed, quite inconceivable that he should be devoid of a very keen interest in the subject. We seem to be justified in believing that he has come to Honolulu mainly to see for him- self what are the actually existing condi- tions here. This theory receives sc firmation from the fact that he firmly re- fused an offer earnestly pre apon bim to become the guest of Banker Damon of the cabinet, and went instead to the Ha- waiian Hotel. The infe e is that he sp cially desires to oc osition of im. partiality while investigating contested public questions. - While in San Francisco on his way hither Mr. Foster was handed a letter signed by certain native Hawaiians, members of the former royal band, who iefused to serve under the present government, and have for more then a year been exhibiting in the United States. The letter was unqu ably prompted, as well as written, by Clar- ence W. Ashford, who ttorney general here in the Thurston cai of "Si-"90, but who broke with his colleagues in conse- quence of having taken service under Canadian Pacific railway, for the purp e of opposing American and promoting brit- ish interests in Hawall. Ashford was in- volved with his brother In the insurrection of 1895, and was expelled from the islands. He is now practicing law in and works virulently ment and against Amer as he finds opportunity. to Mr. Foster, Anti-Annexation Sentiment. The letier notes that press reports repre- sent Mr. Foster as “bent upon the further Promotion of the project of annexation.” It states that these bandmen were “denied the privilege of earning a livelihood in the land of our birth,” on account of “our re- fusal to swear allegiance to the usurpers, and to forswear the forms of government under which we were born and had always lived.” (These men earned a fair living for over a year in Honolulu, as an inde- pendent band, after refusing to serve the republic.) They “trust that you will hoid yourself in a receptive mood for the quiring of information upon the true con- ditions of Hawaiian sentiment concerning politica: annexation to America,’ and that “you will not further seek to have imposed vpon them a political condition from which they shrink with dread.” They particularly ask, in the name of the devotion of the American people to demo- cratic principles, that any further steps toward annexation be deferred “until the will of the qualified voters of our country, as tested by the constitutional provisions existing January 17, 180%, shall have been fermally registered through the medium of a plebiscite.” This demand for a plebiscite upon the question of annexation is the real gist of Ashford’s letter. It means chat the future destiny of the country, with coming 500,000 of inhabitants, shall be de- cided by voters of Hawatian biood, whc form littie more than one-fourth of the adult males, including Asiatic: ng it the islands, and who, through shift and inherited letter than Incapacity, own tess cne-twentieth of the property of the coun- try, and scarcely any of whom are em- ployes of labor. This demand for a ple cite was first made a few weeks after the revolution of 1893, by the British minis Wodehouse. It is a purely Canadian-isri ish demand, made for the purpose of o structing annexation to the United State: Such annexation will be peculiarly bene cent to the native Hawaiians, by reason of its permanently guaranteeing to that class the voting franchise. As an ind state, with its n ity for a strong ¢ ernment, there will be a constaxt tendency to increased restriction of suffrage. As a state in the Union, Hawaii will nece give the suffrage fully to all its citizens, and the native people, with all their nat- ural inferiority, will enjoy political equal- ity, and be well protected in all their rights. Any opposition to annexation now ¢xisting among them results from blindness to their own best interests, and especialy from a most diligent dissemination of anti-Ameri- can prejudice by British residents. Such blindly ignorant opposition deserves te have no weight whatever in the settie- ment of the question. KAMEMAMEHA, —_—_—__. A Reported Living Mastod. From the Alaska News. In conversation with a gentleman,former- ly of Denver, who came out this fall with a party of miners, we learned that the exist- ence of living mastodons near the head- waters of White river was not the mere fabrication of the northern furriers, but that the Stick Indians had positively told him that not later than five years ago suct animals had been seen by them. One o! the Indians said that while hunting one day in that unknown section he came across an immense track, sunk to a depth of several inches in the moss, and from the description as the Indian marked it out to him in the sand it much resembled an ele- phant’s track, and was larger around than a barrel. Upon striking it the Indian fol- lowed up this curious trail, which to all ap- peararces was very fresh, and tracking from one immense stride to the other for a distance of some miles, he came in full view of his game. And what game! The hunter gave one look, then turned and fled as though pursued by the evil one. These Indians, as a class, are the bravest of hunters, and with no other weapon than the spear will attack and slay the St. Elias grizzly. But the immense proportions of this new kind of game both startled and filled the hunter, brave as he was, with great fear, and he imagined his only safety lay in swift and immediate flight. He de- scribed it as being larger than Harper's (the post trader's) store, with great shining yellowish tusks and a mouth large enough to swallow him at a single gulp. He said the animal was undoubtedly the same as were the huge bones scattered over that section. If such an animal is now in exist- ence, and other Indians, and also Mr. Har- per, have confirmed the report, they in- habit a section of very high altitude and one but rarely visited by human beings, and these only Indians. We also have no reason to doubt the Indian's tale, for at no very distant period the Yukon country was inhabited by these animals, and hundreds of their massive skeletons found strewn along the creeks are the silent but truthful witnesses. Baked Chops. From the New York Post. When your fire is not in proper condition for broiling chops, they will be founc to be equally good if breaded and baked in a hot oven. Use loin or rib chops; take out the bones, roll them in as compact form as pos- sible, and lay in a deep pan, with some of the fat trimmed from them under each one. Make a dressing from fine stale bread crumbs, season with salt and plenty of white and red pepper, moisten with melted butter and a beaten égg. Spread smoothly over the chops, and bake until they are y pierced with a fork and brown on top.
