THE ELELE POAKOLU.

This newspaper, published in the
Hawaiian language, IS generally
understood to be owned by Mr..
Gibson, and is edited by John Shell
don. We know that Mr.. Gibson
resorts to newspaper tactics which
good citizens deplore, and which are
beneath man who desires the pub
lie good. Most noticeable among
these methods is the endeavor to
awake race prejudice between the
native and the foreigner, wherever it
suits Mr.. Gibson's purposes so to
do. But in spite.o this, we do not
believe that it is with Mr.. Gibson's
knowledge OF approval, that the
obscenety of some of the recent
Elele articles is indulged in.
The nature of these articles is such
that the owner, publisher, and writer
are liable to criminal prosecution
for indecent publications.
A repetition of the Coronation
Hula Programme Scenes in the
Police Court, with the Minister of
Foreign Affairs as central figure of a
tableaux, would not be gratifying to
himself nor edifying to the public.
We call the attention of the owner of
theElele to this matter under the char
table position that he is in ignorance
of it.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1884-06-04
Planters would neither make nor

Planters would neither make nor
lose anything by bringing here the
gold which they do not use abroad.
They would pay one per cent to
bring that surplus here, and would
sell it for one per cent. They can
not complain of that.
If, on the other hand, persons are
importing more goods than they can
pay for, that is their misfortune.
The country does not furnish money
or exchange for individuals to buy
goods with. All that q Government
can ever do is to furnish, or rather
direct, Il currency which is most
likely to prevent panics and linan-
cial crisis. The experience Of all
nations, the fact is, that gold is the
least huctuating in value, and the
best kind of money.
AS most of the articles, besides
taro and fish, which are used or con-
sumcd in this country are brought
from abroad, the best kind of cur
rency for us is that with which we
can, without loss or discount, pay
for those articles. With q u. S.
gold currency that object will be
secured; exchange, which IN an
essential item in the cost and in the
selling prices of imported articles,
cannot then go over II to II pei
cent. With such currency, and Q
law by which no other coins arc
lawful money, except Hawaiian sill
yer, for SIS payments, we need not
fear having either too much or toe
little coin in the country. People
will have just as much as belongs tc
them, no more nor less, but they
will be more likely to invest it here
if they are sure of currency which
will enable them at any time to ge
it away from here. Every one i:
like the Frenchman, if he cam
have his (gold) coin, he wants it
bad; if he can have it on demand
he doesn't want it.

Mr.. E. C. MACFARLANE ON THE BANK
CHARTER.

Mr.. f. c. Macfarlane has made
an enviable reputation for himself as
an implacable foe of monopolies of
all kinds in California, and we do
not expect to hear of him us being q
monopoly excuser or advocate in Ho-
nolulu.
Mr.. Macfarlane, through the col
umns of the Advertiser, has taken
npon himself to style the Chamber
of Commerce as slow and sober buff
foons, and to intimate that other
members of the community have
employed their ingenuity in distort-
ing and misrepresenting the motives
of the promoters of the Bank Char
ter.
There is no doubt that there is
room for another legitimate bank in
this city, but there is not, and there
never will be, room for a concern
which proposes to do business upon
any such basis as that proposed.
The whole scheme is based on
monopoly, and is to be managed by
that arch monopolist, Claus Spreck-
els, in the interests of monopoly.
There can be no sitting on the
fence in this matter. No amend
ments can be made to this charter

EDITOR BULLETIN:-It is thought
by some that a gold law will practi-
cally be law for the benefit of re-
tailers, who export nothing on which
they can draw for exchange, who
have no gold from abroad to bring
here, so that the exporters, the
planters, will bear all the expense of
keeping the country supplied with
gold. Planters would have to pay
out gold mainly, even ON $40 gold
law, and the retailers would get the
benefit of its introduction by the
planters.
1t is undoubtedly true that the
gold required to keep up the circula-
ton, and replace that which will
constantly be sent out of the coun-
try, must be the proceeds of the
sugar and rice sold abroad. OF
course those to whom the proceeds
of the crop belong will bring the
gold here, whenever and as fast as
they need it. But what else can
they do with their profits or earn
ings? They must use the money
for which they sell their sugar or
rice, either in paying for the i'm
ported supplies which they use, or
else must spend or invest it abroad.
They will not bring coin here for
other people but only for their own
purposes.
If planters have any balance com
ing to them which they do not spend
for their imported supplies, or use
or invest abroad, they must bring it
here and either hoard, invest or
spend it here. They must do some
thing with it. If the country inn
ports more than it exports, spends
and invests abroad, then the planter
if he wants to get his surplus money
here, can easily get the cost of bring
ing it here, OF one per cent, by sell
ing his exchange at that price. The
banks will buy that exchange and
sell it for IA or II per cent, and
make more profit than they are sure
of making as matters now are.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1884-06-04

which will make it a benefit to the
public, and the fact that the pro.
motcrs Of it will be benefited is not
sufficient reason why the public
should give them what they desire.
There arc many others in this COM
munity who would like to go into
business of almost any kind with the
use of q million dollars for nothing,
but unless they can assign some
better reason for giving it to them
than the simple one that they want
it, they are likely to go without it.
The proposed bank is not based
on the system of tho American Ma
tional Banks. In that system the
whole credit of the United States
backs every note, and every note is
payable in gold upon demand. More
over, it is under II general law which
allows any one, who conforms to the
requirements, to engage in business
under its provisions. The notes of
the proposed bank are backed simply
by six per cent. Hawaiian bond for
the same amount, which cannot be
sold for less than par, and out of the
proceeds of which all expenses must
be deducted before the balance can
be paid towards the liquidation of
the notes.
We do not want bank of issue
of any kind. unless the notes issued
represent actual coin, and coin too
that can be used to pay debts with
in foreign countries. The present
paper money, being certificates of
deposit of actual coin, is safe one,
and the only one which can be
used with justice to the community
at large.
ms attempt to give an advantage
to foreign monopolist over the
public at large is the most serious
menace to the business prosperity
and independence of this country
which has appeared since there was
n community here to be affected,
and as snch it is recognized by those
who have the interests of the COM
munity and the country at heart,
and recognizing the fact they do moi
intend to fold their hands and bow
their heads to the yoke of that most
soulless of creations, Il monopoly
corporation.
In view of Mr.. Macfarlane's later
explanation of his position in regard
to the charter, we conclude that in
spite of the little newspaper bun
combe with which he opened the
ball, he stands upon the same gen
eral basis that the other opposers OF
the bill do.
