BEWARE.

would give a word of warning tp young Hawanans to beware how tliey listen to the syren advances made, and that-'will tLT S 7 the ngr that downed John Lane. It is understood they are now trying to have John Lane put in in the place of Uoelho, as a concession to public senflftfent.

"In unity is strength." Unite and Mve j a good, determuied, bold, fearless front to those who would down all native Hawanans if they could. We have been accused of raising race' pxejudice. We deny the s<>fi impeachment, but accuse every one who had anything- to' do with ousting John Lane, who is trying or contemplating ousting Coellio, even to let Lane have his place, who turned out Chaa>. l Wilcox, the efficient clerk of the Board of l HcjjJ»th, and Paakaula of the Dispensary • I who turned out Moses Nakuina at a moment s notice to get back at Representative oeckley, who was exposing the peculiar methods in oflice of the Registrar of Conveyances, who kept back a portion of the pay Hawaiian boys were entitled to, taking the same to iucrease the pay of a white-skin newcomer above the amount appropriated by . th £ Legislature; an Attorney General and officials who whitewashed a man proved of so doing. All these are the ones stirring I up race prejudice.

We have no prejudice against the haole as such. How can we? On the contrary, we love him in the abstract. We are half haole ourselves. We appear in our mother tongue, Hawaiian, aiul in our father's tongue, English; but we hate with a fierce haired I he actions of some of the brethren

of that father s side, who never neglect a Qnance to down the h&tive Hawaiian; who Jcem to be actuated by motives of envy and jealousy against any native Hawaiian occupying any position of honor or prominence as witness the squabbles of the Board of Health with the Public Works Department T.he conditions which called forth unanimous condemnation of the Board of Health existed before Jas. H. Boyd was appointed to the head of tfre Public Works Department, never then heard a whimper against the location ijf the stone crusher. It was located there, by the way, by one of the immaculate compact that never does wrong or err. But rto sooner does a ,Hawauan become the responsible head than a howl is raised at once about the injury to the patients of the Asylum by the proximity of the rock crush ar That was done, we verily believe, just to hamper him in any attempt *o better our roads, knowing well that there was no money with' which to remove the stone crusher, thus giving them an opportunity to gloat ove£ the incapacity of the 1 lawaiian and to demand a change. ,
