Tho Hawaiian Treaty.

Washington, 6.-The hearing was re-
sumed to-day before the House commit
tee on foreign affairs on the proposed ter
minstion Of the reciprocity treaty with
the Hawsiian Islands, by the provisions
OF which sugars produced in the Sand
witch Islands are now imported into this
country free Of duty. Arguments were
made by Representative Gibson, on be-
half of Louisiana sugsr growers, and by
Representative Hardy, who spoke for the
sugar refining interests Of the east. Both
of these gentlemen urged that the adVAn-
tsges alleged to have accrued from the
treaty are entirely one-sided. and that IS
q matter Of fact the introduction OF this
sugar free Of duty will eventually ruin
tie sugar growing and sugar refining in
:erests of this country. Minister Allen,
Of the Sandwich Islands, and ex Gov
ernor Boutwell,, his counsel, spoke for 8
c ntinuance of The treaty, urging that
American sugar was but = drop IN the
bucket compared with all the sugar CON-
sumption of the United States, while on
the part of the Sandwich l-laAds the
treaty was absolutely essential 10 lts
CONNER cial life, and if abrogsted or ter
minated it would b come necessary for
the Hawaiian people 10 place themselves
under the prote ton of some other ma
ton. OEe feature OF the hearing to-day
was the introduction of a petition thirty
five feet long, signed by bus ness firms Of
New York City, representing $1,000 10
900 of capital, and pEsying for the ter
minstion of this treaty, as dangerous to
the commercial Interests Of the country.

Our Governor is a humane

of sympathy for the nurderers
of women, who, after the cow
ardly deed, shrink behind the

plead for mercy. They should
remember that the law was not
made for mercy, but punish
ment, and that, having had no
mercy towards their victims,
they have no right to ask such
from the executors of the law.

well or Brennan, looking to
Austin as a terminus. The tap

The Dallas Times calls at
tention to the fact that hardly a
week passes without a report of
convicts being shot at some of
the many convict camps in the
state. The deduction is that
all penitentiary convicts should
be confined within the peniten-
tiary walls at the earliest prac-
ticable moment. Nearly every
paper in the state has urged
this course for years. 1t is
high time something definite
was being done in the premises.
Convicts are frequently shot in
mere wantoness and out of
mere spite on the part of the
guards.

reason why Texas has no great
leading democratic paper is,
simply because democratic Of

money and appropriate it to
conducting a great democratic
journal. While this is true it
might have added that there is
no demand for a great demo-
cratic organ" The people dos
not want political papers; it is

will have. If there was any de-
mand for a democratic organ,

could not have been found ex-
cept in the person of this assas-

We are surprised to see the
Brennan BANNER, published in
a community which was ham
died against Judge Hancock in
more than one congressional
contest endorse the preference
of the Advertiser for Judge
Hancock as a candidate for
governor, says the Austin States
man. The BANNER when it op-
posed the nomination of Judge
Hancock preferred other gen.
tlemen whom it regarded as
more acceptable to the commu-
nifty in which it had its chief
circulation and support, but af-
ter Judge Hancock was NOM
mated it supported him. 1t has
never at any time questioned
the ability and patriotism Of
that gentleman and it is now
free to confess that it prefers
Hancock to governor Roberts
as a candidate for governor; it
does not want him elected for
a third term. 1t is we believe,
conceded that under no cir
cumstances will Judge Han
cock become a gubernatorial
candidate. The BANNER has
no favorite to bring forward as
a gubernatorial candidate; all
it asks is that a liberal and pro-
gressive platform be adopted
and that man pledged to sup
port it be nominated. 1t is
principles and not men that
should govern the next State
convention.
