MAUI SNARING THE RAYS OF THE RISING SUN.

At last our "sugar coated barons" have awakened froni the lethargic deep-sleep, into whieh they have been slumberingeasily for sometimes on bedof sweet scentedgeraniums —awaking however, to find themselves in a whirl-pool ol a Japanese strike Oahu. At first, just after rubbing their eyes, to settle the visionary equillibrum ol their optical nerves, they thought that the whole pilikia was confined only the actual strike makers, but, alas! their clairvoyant faculties penetrate the hazy rays of the Sun Rise, they at onee discovered that the Nipponese mercantile interest is the evil at the root ol the Oahu strike. Henee, the process of snaring the Hawaiianese Rays of the Rising Sun is now raging. The whole situation is this: Hawaiianese Sugar coated barons versus the whole Japanese population of the Sun Rise Empire in Hawaii.
