Tub queen was not the blithest trump
card in the Hawaiian game, at least not
. on the first deal.
Tns next president of the United
States will be—a republican; his name
will be a secondary consideration.
No wonder Minister Paramount
Blount did not wish to remain in Hawaii
to complete the dirty work he begun.

much more difficult than silver repeal.
No republican will support it.

I* the report made by Paramount
Blount is all the excuse Mr. Cleveland
baa for deoldlng to restore the Hawaiian
monarchy he is to be pitied as well as
condemned.
Wm the administration undertook
to help Gresham “get even” with Gen
eral Harrison It did not probably expect
the task to be so dangerous as it has
already proven to be.
Thb Sun last week devoted consider
able space to Tun Frontier, for which
we are grateful in proportion to the
yalue of the space for advertising pur
poses. That doesn’t mean very much.
T&c section of the democratic
^tariff bill that will, unless present in
formation is wrong, provide tor tho im
position of an income tax, should be
headed, “For promotion and encourage
ment of the crime of perjury."
lr Mr. Cleveland’s minister to Hawaii,
r who has for some reason failed to
; openly attempt the restoration of the
' queen, engages in any sneak business to
accomplish that end it will add to the
helnousness of the crime fathered by
; by Gresham and Cleveland.

It is folly to say that an income tax
will not be felt by the poor. The rich
an never lacking for ways to shift their
hardens to tne shoulders of the poor.
It is like expecting a tax upon usury
to be paid by the usunr, when every
body knows that It is the unfortunate
; borrower who has to pay.
TUBS is no truth In the report that
the Mleeonri congressional delegation
had adopted a resolution thanking Mr.
Cleveland for the appointment of Scott
Harrison to one of the best federal
offices of Kansas City, or any thing else.
' On the contrary, the delegation is more
: Inclined to—well, never mind what; it
’ Isn’t to thank him. ,

Kvn the free trade New York Herald
< has at last discovered that the new tariff
!;; "must be moderate and framed with
- careful regard to the Interests of trade
?; and industry," and that "any reckless
. tariff legislation, any sudden or sweep*
ing changes would unsettle business and
industry and bring on a panic.” Still it
lacks the courage to advise the dem
- ocrats to let the tariff alone.

Arran experimenting a number of
years with free trade, which terminated
in terrible financial disaster, the colony
of New South Wales in Australia in
tends to try protection. The premier,
; . Sir George Dibbs, has stated straight
out that the policy of bis government,
- to be placed before his country at the
general elections next year, will be pro
: faction vs. free trade, and the general
feeling as far as can be ascertained is in
i .favor of protection. The colonial
< paper says: "The free traders are at
: present completely disorganized.” Thus
American history repeats itself even at
pf the Antipodes.

TnK pilot insists that “the gabble of
the average ghost dancer in the country
papers reminds one of the dog barking
at tho moon.” It was this same "gab
ble," our insane and mercenary friend,
that saved the state from populist dom
ination in this election, and these same
“ghost dancers” have the power to wipe
half the names off the circulation hooks
of tho Bee otitBide of Douglas county.
It is ensy for a man sitting in Ihe sixth
story of a mortgaged newspaper palace
to sneer at the country press, but that
sneer may in time bring about the fore

ences tho voters of the commonwealth

ip Cunningham was paid his reward
money which he wns justly entitled to
when he turned defaulter Scott ovfer to
the sheriff of Holt county perhaps he
would not have been removed, as he
was at great expeqBe in capturing Scott.
—Sun.
Ah there! Even the immaculate Sun
stooping to defend a criminal. Cunning
ham was entitled to no reward for
capturing Scott and none would have
been offered in the manner it was bad it
not been for the ignorance of the board
snd their legal advisor. In intimating
that he is short on account of the money
spent in capturing Scott is hut a
reiteration of our opinion that the board
of supervisors made a defaulter of Scott
by forcing him to take county money to
lefend himself against their vicious on
slaughts. Six of one, half a dozen of
the other, presto, change! See, Charles?
Tnn greatest amount of wool ever
imported in any single year wns under
the McKinley law for the year ending
June 80, 1893; so Justice Bateman & Co.
point out. The imports of raw wool
then were over 168,000,000 pounds, or 33
per cent, more than the importations of
iny previous year. This refutes and
lisposes of the charge so often made by
Free traders that it is necessary to put
wool on the free list in order to give
American manufacturers cheap foreign
wool for mixing. They never imported
io much foreign wool as under the last
rear of the McKinley law, the schedules
pf which were so wisely drawn . that
under it the woolen mills of the United
States were employed tt> their full ca
pacity, so that the entire American clip
pf 1893 was not only all consumed in
our home market, but 168,000,000 pounds
pf foreign wool besides.
TnE editors of Tiih Frontier on their
bended knees should beg pardon of the
people of this county for their gross mis
representations of facts;, and for their
defense of such a criminal as Scott.—
Sun.
If it is a sin for a newspaper to publish
truth, facts bolstered up with records,
then The Frontier editors are unmiti
gated sinners and are ready and willing
to apologize to its readers collectively
and Individually. But, if on the other
hand, veracity is a virtue and honest
convictions commendable, the apology
should come from the other side, bo
far as defending Scott is concerned we
deny the allegation. Our utterances
speak for themselves. We have in the
past, and will in the future, simply
censure his enemies for the methods
they employed. Tom Golden, who is
suspicionod of writing Sun editorials,
was supervisor at the time when Scott
was first ousted and when the question
of signing up their proceedings was be
fore the board he said in one of his
little speeches; "Gentlemen, our pro
ceedings are so full of errors and irreg
ularities that once in court we would
surely be reversed; and for that reason I
vote no.” This is the spirit that The
Frontier has kicked against. A body
of men determined to oust an officer
even when they knew that their pro
ceedings were illegal and by defying a
district court attempt to defraud him of
the right of trial. It is not Scott that
The Frontier defends, it his enemies
that we censure.
WB Have been asked why we did not
publish Cleveland's Thanksgiving proc
lamation. We hnve various reasons,
too numerous to mention. One is that
it is a libel on the face of existing con
ditions in America, where with over
flowing granaries and plenty, we have
over three million of tramps and men
out of employment, because of the ac
cursed financial system brought about
by the dictates of such tyrants, tories
and Benedit Arnolds as Cleveland. We
feel thankful to God that things are not
worse, but to sacrifice patriotism and
honor by glorifying with traitors who
ought to be hung, we never will do it.
The conditions in America to-day would
disgrace a Hindoos tan administration.—
Independent.
What a perfect anarchist! Some peo
ple advocate the plan of locking up
cranks and fools as soon as the symp.
toms show themselves, and we are in
clined to agree with them. A man who
will advocate the hanging of the presi
dent of the United States on account of
his political views, is a menace to society
and has forfeited his right of freedom
It matters not what Cleveland may or
may not think and advocate in regard to
financial legislation, the fact remains
that he was chosen chief executive by a
majority of the residents of these United
States, aud as such he should be accorded
the respect due any man who occupies
that exalted position. Lincolo, Garfield,
and Harrison lost their lives bv just sncli
rabid utterances of damphool newspa
pers as the Independent. The Fbontiek
has no sympathy or praise for Cleve
land, but it respects the position he oc
cupies and has some regard for the voice
of the majority which placed him there.

A New Chautauqua flan.
The recently announced Chautauqua
extension lecture plan serves as an ad
mirable introduction of the university
extension idea to communities which are
unable at present to bear the expense of
a lecture. It consists, in brief, of
courses of lectures by eminent scholars,
written in a clear, forcible style, and
then printed and loaned to local centers.
Each center is furnished with the six
lectures of a given course, tickets being
sold at 50 cents each, with a syllabus of
each ticket holder, and announcements
for general' distribution. The great
value of the plan lies in the fact that it
gives to any community, however small,
the opportunity of securing a - set of
scholarly lectures with absolutely no
financial risk, the arrangements being
such that only a certain proportion of
the receipts are paid to the Chautauqua
management. There are five courses in
literature, social science and art now
ready.
REQUIRED LITERATURE.
The circle has gradually secured a
class of books written by leading
authors, and especially adapted to the
needs of self-educating readers. The
Chautauquan, organ of the C. L. S. C.,
contains much of the required readings
for each year, and many timely articles
by the best American and English
witters,
'Anyone wishing information concern
ing the Chautauqua system, is requested
to write cither of the following ad
dresses: W. H. Hardy, state secretary,
