PRSI — THE OMAHA DAILY BER: MONDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1895 HORBACH'S TRIP T0 HAWAII He Describes a Visit of Several Weeks to the Pacific Republios SAW THE END OF THE REVOLUTION Government Firmly Established— Country of Varied Resources Easily De- veloped - Foreigners and Climbing Mount Haleakala, Now, Atives— The etirring incidents of Hawail's most re eent revolution have been read with much attention by the American public. To hear them related by one who was an actual ob sorver of of the of the past month in that interesting island is much more interesting. Mr. John A. Horbach of this city has returned from the islands, where | he spent some time just after the breaking out of the revolution, and his observations on | the Hawallan situation const a valuable supplement to what has previously been writ ten. Mr. Horbach Is a critical observer, and has formed some very decided opinfons dur ing his sojourn in the country of th queen, corrugated appellation has driven &0 many proof readers to unmarked graves during the past fow months Mr. Horbach arrived at the port of Hono lulu on January 19 after the revolution = provisional government “My first cxperience in Honolulu,” said he “was when we fell into the clutches of the revenuo police, who were looking for arms and ammunition. As a rule the main anxicty of these officials is to prevent the smuggling of oplum, but on this oceasion this was lost sight of in the greater fear that some of the passengers might bring supplles to the rebels Many of the passengers on the steamer had Winchesters or® revoivers with them, which they were quickly deprived of. They received a receipt for the firearms, which were to be réturned to them as soon as they could prove to the satisfaction of the government that they would not be used in the' revolutionary cause. most cecurrences itute dusky whose or five days against FRUITS AND PRODUCTS. “I found much to interest me in the fsl- ands,” continued Horbach, “chief of which was the marvelous agricultural resqurces which abounded. Here may be found nearly every product known to tropical climates All are raised in the greatest luxurlance and with comparitively little exertion. Vast sugar and rice plantations are to be seer which are a source of wonder to the tourl and of immense revenue to the owners. Somc of these plantations which I visited pald a dividend last year of as high as 48 per cent and others in proportion. Then there arc oranges, bananas, prunes, figs, dates, raisins, grapes, mangoes and bread frult in that pro fusion peculiar to tropical climates. These combine to make the island an important quisition from a commerclal standpoint, and once the country is free from the constant turmoil and revolutions which have shackled business operations during the past few years it Is bound to enjoy a remarkable prosperity “As nearly as 1 coulil ascertain the popu lation of the seven islands which comprise the group is from 100,000 to 110,000. Of these the Americans who practically run th islands constitute but a small proportion The entire white population of Americans English, Scoteh and Germans is scarcely more than 5,000 people. There are 25,000 Japanese, 20,000 Chinamen, 17,000 Portu- guese and the remginder consists of th Kanacks or natives. These are a peculiar people. They are as black as the negro, but are better featured, and many of them are of very good appearance. Their chief char- acteristic fs their love of ease and luxury They are too indolent to prosper, and will work no more than Is absolutely necessary to ke:p them alive. If a Kaanck is in town with half a dollar in his pocket, and has nothing to eat at home, he wil spend that half dollar for a carriage to ride home in and trust to luck for his supper. REPUBLIC A STAYER. The excitement incidental to the revolu- tion had Bomewhat subsided when I ar- rived, and it was easy to gauge the senti- ment of the people. It would seem that the royalists have received their quietus, and that the provisional government is too strongly intrenched to be dislodged. There are per- haps about 100 royalists among the white people on the islands, and, with these ex- ceptions, the sentiment s unanimous in favor of annexation to the United States. I called on President Dole soon after my-arrival, and found him a very pleasant acquaintance. He is a person of rather commanding appear- ance, and gives tho impression that he is a remarkably level-headed man. He would weigh about 175 pounds, and, although he is but 49 years old, his hair 1s almost white. He wears a long, full beard, which covers his chest, and he is a better listener than talker. He is a very cautious man, who will do nothing except what he has fully decided is the advisable thing to do. He is being urged to make an example of some of the leaders of the revolution, so that the com- merclal Interests of the country will be safe from any danger. When I left about forty of the revolutionists had been tried and there wero 100 more to follow. Six of the con- spirators had been sentenced to be shot, but the sentences of two of them will be com- muted, on account of the evidence that they gave during the trials. I expect that about halt a dozen of the leaders will be shot, and the rest will be deported where they will not be in a position to plot mgainst the gov- ernment. I think it likely that the queen will also be banished, as it scems to be the general opinion that it would not be safe to allow her to remain on the islands, I under- stand that there is an American league or- ganized, which asserts that unless President Dole carries out the sentiment of the people in pushing the prosccution of the revolution- ists, they will lynch those who have been convicted. One of the Impressions left from my trip is the belief that tne islands will surely bo annexed to this country in the course of a few years. To one who has vis- ited them there can be no question of the benefit that they would be to this govern- ment, and the sentiment In the islands is &0 strong in favor of annexation that It is bound to come, VISIT TO HALEAKALA. During his sojourn in Hawali Mr. Horbach visited Mauic Island, which contains the ex- tinet volcano, Mount Haleakala, which towers more than 10,000 feet above the sea level This island is the home of Mr. Charles H Dickey, a brother of J. J. Dickey of the Western Union Telegraph company in _this city, who has been a resident of Hawall for the past twenty years, and speaks the Kan- ack language like a native. In company with Mr. Dickey, Mr. Horbach climbed fo the summit of the voleano and gazed down more than 2,000 feet Into the crater. There is a building on the summit, to which the tray- elers carried a key, but' some mizcreant had battered the lock with a chunk of lava so that they could not galn admittance, and were forced to camp for the night in a cave. It was a cold, rainy night, and the tourlsts soon had enough of mountain climbing. Mr. Horbach returns much improved in health, and In this he gained the chief object of his trip. e Tho Modern dnvalid, Has tastes medicinally, in keeping with other Juxuries.

Promotion was rapid in those days and he had become brigadier general of volunteers in the summer of 1863, His serv- fce was with the Army of the Potomac, and a string of brevets from major up to major general inclusive, in the regulars, and of major general of volunteers, for gallant and meritorious services at Gettysburg, Tavern, Hawe's Shop, Winchester, Fisher's Hill, Five Forks and the final Virginia car palgn, attest his soldierly conduct, while he was also mada a major general of volunteers specifically for gallant sereices The othe officers in the same Brigadier Generals Brooke, Wheaton, Otis and Forsyth, all have distinguished records. A new major general and a new brigadier are called for, and since the retirement of General McCook month after next will renew this y, practically two double stars and two single stars are now under consid- fon, says the New York Sun. It has generally been regarded as settled, however, that two vacancies in the grade of major general will go respectively to Gen- eral Ruger and General Merrit, T of- ficers are not only the two highest in their grade, but are eminently suited to the new commands by ability, character and experi ence. Both, also, have excellent records of service. Both, as it happens, are natives of Now York and graduates of the Military ac- ademy. General the Ap- from to nd was Ruger's service before the civil war was brief, since, soon after his appoint- ment to the corps of engineers, in 1854, he resigned from the army, and practiced law in Janesville. But when the war broke out he was made lieutenant colonel and then colonel of an infantry regiment in Wisconsin, the state where he resided, and from which o had been appointed to West ovember, 1862, he was made a weral. He served during the war, both at the west and the east, receiving the brevet of brigadier general in the army for his service Gettysburg, and a brevet of major general of volunteers for services at Franklin, At the close of the war he became olonel of the Thirty-third infantry, later was transferred to the command of the Eight- conth, and was promoted to be brigadier general in the army in March, 1886. Among his services since the war those rendered a few days ago in quelling the revolt among the Crow Indians may be especially men- tioned. But’ when who are to we come to be promoted f selection become much The highest in rank is Shafter, First infantry, in 1861 as first lieutenant n’ the Seventh Michigan infantry, and the following year became major of the Nineteenth. Early in 1864 he was made Colonel of the Seventeenth United States colored infantry. His brev were those of colonel in the regulars for Fair Oaks and brigadier-general of volun- teers for services during the war. At the reorganization he became lieutenant-tolonel of the Fort rst infant present grade fifteen years in 1899, Sccond on the lis C. Merriman, Seventh infantr teer soldier. He entored tain of the Twentieth Maine infantry in the latter part of 1862, and the following spring was made captain in the Bightieth, and then lieutenant-colonel in the Eight fifth United States colored infantry. ~ He was brevetted lieutenant-colonel for Antie- tam, colonel for conspicuous gallantry at Forl Blakeley, and also colonel of volunteers for the Mobile campaign. After the war he was made major of the Thirty-eighth infan- try, and reached his present grade in 1885 He' retires in 1901, The third colonel in rank is Colodel Z. R. Bliss, Twenty-fourth infantry, who gradu- ated from West Point in 1854, and has served in the regular army ever since. During the war he was made volonel of the Tenth Rhode Tsland infantry, and received brevets of major and lieutenant colonel in the regulars for gallant and meritorious services at Freder- csburg and the Wilderness. He reached present command in April, 1886, He re- tires in 1899. Following him comes Colonel T. M. Anderson, who began his career by enlisting in an Ohio regiment, but a few days later received a commission as second licptenant in the Second cavalry, and a short time afterward one as captain in the Twelfth infantry. His brevets are those of major and licutenant colonel, for gallant services at the Wilderness and Spottsylvania. He retires in 1900. Colonel B. F. Townsend, Twelfth in- fantry, who comes next, graduated from West Point 'in 1854, and was breveted major for the battle of Shiloh and lieutenant colonel for' services in the Ordnance department. In 1890 he was made commandant of the in- fantry and cavalry school. His retirement is fixed for 1897. Then in succession we find, taking, as be- fore, the line colonels only, Colonel R. B. A. Crofton, Fifteenth infantry, who retires in 1898; Colonel J. F. Wade, Fifth cavalry, who retires in 1907; Colonel C. E. Compton, Fourth cavalry, who retires in 1900; Colonel E. C. Mason, Fourth infantry, who retires next May, and Colonel H. 'W. Closson, Fourth artillery, who is the senior officer in his arm, and retires June 6, 1896, This last officer graduated from the academy in 185 and has thus been nearly forty years in th servicp. The list need not be followed down further, sinco the names already mentioned probably contain those of the two colonels who will next receive the star. Pl . Ttalinn Counterfelters Arrested.

He thought that the world should conform to.God instead of seeking to reconcile God to the world. A return to primitive Christianity was needed. The peo- ple nowadays were in a mad scramble for wealth and sought riches more than divinity. The middle classes, he believed, were the bona and sinew of the nation and largely the support of the church. The scribes and pharisces rejected Christ and his teachings, and many of the mcdern rich were inclined to make Christianity sec- ondary to fashion and wealth. e ey Salt rheum with its intense itching, dry, hot skin is cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, be- cause it purifies the blood. e DIRECT SOUTHE! — Via Rock Island, Shortest Line and Fastest Time, To all points in Kansas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory, Texas and all points in southern California.
