The efforts of the planters to promote the imm)- gration of whites are not likely to be Very successful under such ctreum-~ stances. It is quite probable that the Hawailan sugar syndicate will, im the end, be oblige to use a part of the annual bonus of about $20,- 000,000 which it receives from the United States through the remiasion of duties in paying such wages or) shares as will induce white men to engage im the cultivation of sugar cane on the Hawaiian Isiands. en People who follow the Star closely, soon discover that this paper gets the news, Today, for illustration, an exclusive announcement concern- ing Hon.

The Star is in- dependent, will give ail of the news, and will siash away tn any direc- tion that the public interests seem to require. _—_——E——e—— Maitres Labori and Demange, the counsel of Captain Dreyfus, have deen authorized to communicate with their client without lint as to f quency of their visite, the permits| ¥4¥ to this effect, signed by the recorder of the courtmartia! at Rennes, being available untit the day when judg-| han’ ment shall be rendered.
