Tlio population of Hawaii w.v Aividod into two elements - tho iutcili guilt auil tlio ignorant. Tlio lilies be tween time vcru inure .Miurp!y drawn than was tiio case uny hero ebo. 'I'll ; intelligent classes umbraced, besides tlio American i: tint country, tin? Ciiueasiuns in general, Knglish, French and Geimati. Th ignorance lim ing the natives, Chinese, .luputieso uti 1 their kiiul, was gross, and placed them far below tlio white.-, boih mentally ami morally. Tho majority of t'm intelligent people were Liberals, and were opposed to Queen Liliuokuhr.ii, while tlio majority of tlio others wore Loyalist, lint there wero come in telligent supporter:! of tlio e,ueo:i, und not a few nalivo Liberals. J'.veii this was complication enough. Hut, con tinuing the division of parlieM, tho queen's adherents were divided i:i tho Church l'ariy anil tho Party of Idea. Do not mistake the use or application of tho word '"idea.." in reference to tho larger wing of tho ipiecn'u parly. They hail ideas, it is true, but they wore not in the direction of advance ment or enlightenment. Tho name "l'urty of Ideas" was ono of the ide.s, Slid emanated from tlio inauguration of (pieeii. Tho l'ariy of Ideas was fumply tlio Worst eloiin'tit of tlio lot, nnd had for its motive tho overturning of tin; constitution and a return to :ri almost nb.soliito moniirehy, with tit '. simultaneous return to iuipnro morals and licensed wickedness, which hud always accompanied that form of gov ernment in the idau Is. On tho other lurid, tho Church Party, while it strove t ) holg) the queen round about with Home sort of dignity, and had 1 ng worked for tho nplifitug of the natives from their con dition of iuor.it turpitude, hated their nuppoit of the queen ma uly upo i a lort of tralitional f.mdue.u for tho pomp and trippings of royalty and u pirit of platitude for tlio Ireedom tlio government had allowed tho priests ill their work. Now, nioppoicl to these tiro ele ments of tho iloyalisis were, us I limit said, tho most intolligen' of tho rcsi dents. Tlio peoplo who looked npoi: tho extravagances of tho court, tin taoilhiting, w.-ak and ilei'etierati'i;: legislation produced by tlio exis-mi form of government, where tho peo ple who had given to Hawaii its prom inence as a country, who hud invested their wealth in t tin land, and who oiaintuined all there was to Id main tained of tho expeu .'S of tH- state. I'hey wera tho mci who paid tho taxes an lands, mid who wore always de pended upon to put forth their wealth in tho furtherance; of uny project os tensibly for public improvement. Yet, iccordiug to tlio Koy.i'ast i'arty, not inly in Hawaii, but i:i the United States nnd England, the -in men bed tto lights which tho cr nvuwas bound to observe, nor oven tlio right t dis spprovo of tho wretchedly wustiu;j policy of tho iueeu and her cabinet. Hut eveu this party was divided in Soutimeut. One clement, not a iu::'l r iusiuitlcnnt ono by any means, ha I long luon n;it:it in tho question o' proposinf nnne.xatiou to tho I'liite;! Btutos. Their position was maiiitaiueii by sound urnments on tho liuaticiu', judicial and eommereial buueilts ti be ilerived from tho incorporatiu:; of Ila irnii into the United Stales, wbieh tvnuld eventually result in raising tho Islands to tho di piity of a Stuio or Bolleetion of States, or at least to Ter ritories. The benefits, tt.-i set foi ih by tho Annexationists, or left-wim; i f the Liberals, wero bountifully clear and alluring, but there wero elements and Conditions to be taken iuto considera tion that rendered tho chomo iuad uiisKiible, or, nt lea.st, iuipructicub.'e. But the left-winj had nblo lealeis, anil anions them wcio Saudford Dole and Mr. Seacamp. On the other nido of tho nnnrn.ion question wero tho members of tho right-wing of tho Liberal l'urty. Tiio demands of this oi,'uui.iitiou wero clear, simplo and succinct. Th-y wanted a government for tho people, and of tho peojdo. They demanded a CoiiKtitutioii under which all industries should bo fostered, commerce encour aged and tho wealth of the country in vroaaed. While, as u rule, Americans nro ardent lu their love f.r their mother country, tiny foresaw difiieul ti.' i and evils in tho plans of tho left v.i i which wero insiirmountablo: and in lieu of annexation villi tho Unite 1 Btales, or any other country, they de Bird a republican form of government, o'ole, fbou and unwuveiiu:;, which would uphold tho autonomy of Hawaii before tho world and increase iis im-l port.iu -0 am ui: nations. In short, the nmia diuTciico betweeu tho twj winjfs was that tho left wanted to be a email p ut of a great republic, while tho right wuntod to bo u themselves, wit:i a p.-:. -y r.:i icr which they luiht become i;:v it u i I stai: 1 alo ie.

The condition of things bad been pelting worso gradually for years. The situation bad now become painfully (drained. It was w ell understood that tho queen was goin;; to override the law and was going to replace the existing constitu tion with ono of her own. Moro than this, tiho was about to make terms ol license with a huge lottery scheme, uud grant, as well, a demand thai hud long been made by tho "opium rinr;," which would largely increase her own revenuo, but which would forever dot-troy all progress in morality anil in dividual liberty. Tho Church l'ariy were even now wuverin:? in their allegiance uud al most ready to break with tho govern ment. Tho Liberals wt-ro aghast nt the bold nnd audacious position taken by the queen, and even her most vio lent supporters could not face the ar guments of Dole and others u0'iiiu.st the preposterous schemo. All thi.i I learned from Undo Tom as wo sat mournfully at Tho Corals, :w'ter Winnie ha 1 disappeared. "ft is easy to understand," said my uncle, "how tho pesky niggers believe they will deitroy nil opposition tj the queen by retorting to violeuco and c i'li-1. l.ut mark mc, Tom, my boy, !i' i:ur comes of this if a hair of our Winnie's heal is hurt I'll have it o it of tho uld she-devil if it takes mj last dollar nnd my life us well. Now y-.i l thoroughly uppreciuto the situa tion. Things uie hot hero now. Tim a;rain is too groat. Something's got to happen pretty noon." 'Do you know enough of the habits of the natives to guess where they have taken Winnie?" "There are a dozen things they might do. They are full of w ily deceit s uud unholy idelutry, uud all the heathen i.h tilings you could imagine. 3lo, there's no telling what they might do. We must keep on looking, that's all, until wo find her." Whilo v,o wero speaking Oor.lou ca:no in, hot, weary and thoroughly u:::.v. "What hope? What huvo you learned Y" I asked him eagerly. "Xothing," ho replied invacrely, Imngiug a table with his sword. '"I'd like to take tho whole cussed lot ol tho rascals into a ten-aero Ibid nnd shoot them. We have looked every where that was possible. Not a truce can bo found. And tho wor.st of it it tlio natives all seem to enjoy the thing, ft is a sort of triumph for tho queen's parly. Hut it won't ha n triumph long. I'll find Winnie if it takes not only my life, but everybody's." i grasped his hand. "I'oii uro indeed a friend, Gordon. We will work together. We must find her. Wo will hunt down the mysteri ous fiends who abducted her, and s'.ay them. " "i'liat wo will," ho said, grimly, t ipping his sword. "I must go to tun palace now.

We found her Mcxi -an p my on tho tudc of a mountain, but it li i I evidently been straying ever since tho horrible night that Winnie was taken from ils fuddle. And we found tlio horsj Miilliuuki liud ridden. Hut that was all. Day ufter day senveh iu ; parties went out, but returned at night, crestfallen and unsuccessful. "Tom"' suid my undo one day, "the America-.! League bus a meeting to night. 1 promised Dole I wouiu lu thure. Things are ;.;rwiug wariiie-. tie-nothing must bo djuo soou. Wi had better go." "1'os, let us go," I replied. "If w i cm assiU in overturning tho occur.-; 'd c inditions existing here, let us do it.

Well, let us goto the American League, and help destroy their power." ' It is surely coming. Dole is r. mar c! zos'uiuvch. Seldoti is heart nnd soul in the uiovemeut. Kv( old War ren is with us." "Who is "Warren?" "One of tho noblest men that God ever ma le. He is tho hea l physician s.t ::e Kccrptioii Hospital ut Uo:r; illill." "X.cprosy hospital i" "Yes." Tiio r.ecep'.ioti ITorpital was an fn dilution thai filled me with a sort ol horror. It was used for ono purpi.sd only, so Uncle Tom told :ne, on ih way to tho League meeting. When ever symptoms of leprosy, fho curso ol Hawaii, were seen i:i any peron.grcat or small, native or foi-i-ign, living on Oahu,that person was forth with hustled to the lleception Hospital, w lu re lia j was held under tho care of Doctor! Warren until the arrival of the "lop!r I ciiooner" that was to take him to th; bqier settlement on Molokai, an island to thcFoutheust of Oahu. This schooner lnalo tho trip acrosa Kaiwi Strait once in every two weeks. While hold in tho r.ceopi'on ITonni. tal, tho lepers were, un h-rst -mil In bo isolated from ull ma ikin !, bnt owing to a crii.iiii.il neglo -t on the p:irt of the government, this rule could not bo en forced by Doctor Warren. Tho 1ms. pital opened ut the rear into a largo in closure, flurrounue I by a high buni'mo fence. Into this inclosuro the patient jould po at will, and converse with whoever of their friends chose to inert tho?n nt the fence and talk through it. It was cvon possible for them in i duces to kiss uud rub noses through the parted bamboo pickets. Of course, tho wcll-reguhito 1 human heart revolts ogainst all enieliy, but ii was plain, ho my r.nclo held, tl.at this privilege practically iliscoiiute. I all tho good to be gained by the later isolation of the lepers on Molokni. KtTbrts bad be, -n made t.i bring about proper legis lation on tho matter, but proper legis lation was out of tho question with Liliuokulnni on tho throne. Doctor Warren's entire life, had tscen spent in tho noble effort, to discover a euro for leprosy. lie had labored in cessantly and intelligently, courage ously buttling against doubt, an I year after ySr ensting bcliiud him the ili-s-c.uiragi nicnt of repented failure. It was his aim to rid Hawaii of the foul disease that so long had been a curse to the place. "Hero we nro," paid Uncle Tom, r.a the eurriage stopped bet. u e a low build ing near the Americi l Legation. The American League was composed of Liberals from both wings. It had been in existence a great many years, and had been allowed to meet in a largo hall over the United States Legation. When we entered tlm hall was nearly full, nnd many of tho peo ple I knew wero in attendance. Tho Amoriciin League hud, its a reason for its existence, the interests of tho en tiro country at heart. Of course, its members being Americans, their first thoughts wero fur Americana; but tho promulgation and support of inensim s for the benefit of Hawaii was tho ob ject of Ihe League. Mr. Dole was there and so wero Mr. Seacamp nnd Doctor Warren of i the Reception Hospital, who sat i.ear (the front. Shortly afier wo arrived, the meet- ! ing was called to order. Tho eliuinuan, rising, addressed the League: ".My friends cud fellow-American-.!" ho raid, "ft is with tho deepest re- gr.'t that I etato the object of this meeting.

SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL Qlcaniiigs From All Sections of tho Busy anil Prosperous Sjuth. A Valuable Tree. There is more wealth In our forests than ;n gold mines if the timber is properly cared fur. One walnut tic, cut in IIa.vwsd county last week, brought on" tlniin-nnd dollars. Tha people who live in tn.eh a country arc rich If they only knew It. This recalls an interview with Mr. i. L. lingers. Corporation Commissioner of North Carolina, which recently ap peared In the Illsa Point Enterprise. Wo quote: Jlatlroad Commissioner Rogers, who was here Saturday was talking about the value of North Carolina timber. Ho said thnt lie hud only one story to re laic and that was a big one. A man in Western North Carolina was sell ing scantling Umber walnut trees. Th" man who was buying came t) ono very hands mio treo. He tld the own e. It - would pay as much as ?5l for that tr -e. This excited the owner. Ho ui I not s 'U Imi s -nt for experts. The owier got $1 .". 11 for th" tree (curled wahiut) as It stool. Tho man who cut It down realized $3,000 for it on tho c:us. It was shipped to Now York and veneered 1 i to 1 2 Inch. The sales wore watched nnd estimated as best that could he (l ine and when all wus di -posed of it turned out that tho treo brought mar JsO.o-.iO. Tho point is tills: We have t'.o idea as to the valuo of our timber, much of which is hoing fo nt North for a mere song. We can bi :ae rl -h in Ncrth Carolina If wo work our raw mat. rial as others work It for us." Itul-'igh News aud Ohscr ver. Texas Prosperity.
