When bis honors Judges Miller |THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION. ana Kimball warned and lectured officers of the Metropolitan police force of the careless nse of fire arms, they certainly bad the appio- val of the citizens of Washington. The sbooting of Willis Wash ington on Wednesday meruing by officer Terry recalis to mind the shooting of a white citizen by a drunken brute of the police force who isnow serving a term iv Albany penitevtiary. it is quite natural that Wasbing- ton would pot hault when he was requested to do 80, by two cffi-ers in cliizens clothes whom he thuugh: were two irresponsible men or persons that iutended to do him an injary. What right bad this brate of ti @ police tores to shout? Wash- ington bad committed no off-nse nor way be 1p the act of committiag an « ffeuse. No sbooting bas shocked the people more than this; no excuse can be made by this mau to justify him for the shooting of thie inne- cent colored men. How long is this kind of brutality against the colored people to continue? We have appealed to the com- missioners, but, our appea's Lave beep unheeded, we have sppeuled to the courts of last resort aud they have jostified these offivers in shoot- ing and killing colored men. The district should be made to pay for this barbarous wrong; the commissioners shocid take the matter in baud and see that wild and crazy men be not appointed on the pi lice ferce. it 18 easi-r for some of these uncivil zed «flizers to, shoot au innoceut colored man than it is tor them t+» cateh the man called “Jack the Slasher’. What rignts Lave the colored people? What proieciiun have they ou the public highway?

In the dcath of Aon. J. C Price, the race iost one of its finest representatives. There area few negroes rho are apie from principles, who will be taken care of. os Perlaps Governor ¥cKinley *t) Thos. H. Clarke, will be able to name the ne weer candidate. Tt has now become a fact that the great shoe store enterprise could not be started this month, or even in the near future on account of finances. If the report of Commissioner Blount, to the President is true, acd the Beg bas no reason to doubt it, President Cleveland should receive the indorsement of the entire country for restoring to the Hawiian people their coun- try which was stolen from then. Indeed, there never was saca a high handed piece of thi-very on the part of any goverment as that perpetrated by the United States on the Hawaiian people. Tve-Star, the Post and many other } apers in this country seem to be kicking themselves -to death because President Ceveland is about to undo the worst bar aricus act known to civil gation, The queen of Hawaii, in tbe opinion of Mr. Bleuut, 18 a lady-.of retinement. Toe newspapers, 0° a mejority of them, who favor this steal, aud to make their case good, have dope everything to convince the Ameri- ean people that the queen is a crimival; that. she is the kept mistress of her marshal, She nas been cartooued by the Post of this city aud ihe New York World as a “thick lip” and an uprefiue! pegress. This is done to show to to the Awerivan people that Mr. Cleveland aud secretary Gresham want to pluce ab ignorant negress va the throve over white people. Those of you who saw the queen wheu sbe arrived in this city wiil teatify that she is not the womas that has beev pictured by the press of the country. It was the desire of tha last administration, through the secretary of State Mr. Blaine, to pick @ quarrel with seme negre government. An attempt was made to bulldoze Hayti, ibe litre negro republic, aud briog ber to time for certain alleged violaticus of intervatioual laws, This geverument rever fails to bluff emall gcverments, bat, seep governments as HKugiaud, Russia and Franee, it will give the bluff and nothing more. It is hoped that the President will restore the queen. OUR HIGH SCHOOLS. Trustee B. K. B:ues has no good excure to retain the present prioci- pal of the High school any longer. Re is incompetent aod should be retsoved and a man appointed woo will bring up the schoo! on a par with the white High sc :oo!s of tir ety. Mr. Brace ebould be aware that the children are suffering by the retention of Cardozo. Does Mr. Broce intend to remedy thir evil? The people aze auxious to kuoy. Some have already jumped, by saying “they will never vote the democratic “ticket again.” The democrats don’t want them as offi‘e holders and the repbli- caus w nt have them so they wil have to stay on the ferce.
