Editok Holomua. From :t le:iiling article iu the A'tveiii*er of May 10, we observe that fear has onee more enterecl theranks of the P. G., aml this causes little womler, as guilt breeds eowanliee. Onee a<rain. we say to the A'h:erti<er, thut the | P. G neeel have nn fear of an np- : rising of the Koyalists, as they never get lost eoiihilenee in U. S. doing ainpl * justieo to Hawaii. The “dead shots” of the citizons guard. whieh the A<h:ertiser boasts of. strikes no terror in the soul of a sing!e K >yalist; and : God forbid that the dav should ever eome, that the p. g. should order their dead shots (from Kalalau', to assemble, as the public are well aware as to what happened to the I’. G. deadshots wheu thev did meet the lioyal dead shot. Doubt!esr> if a ' fight did tuke plaee, tho writer of | that editonaI w>uld be found stowed away in another man’s cellar. Bear in mind this Mr. 1 Advertiser, that: “Thrice arraed . is he, who bath his quarrel just ” -M. X. O.
