The Late ornan G. Clifford.

Again 10 falls 10 our lot to chronicle the death of
another of our old resideuts-Mr. o. g. Clifford
which sad event occurred on Thursday last, May
I'd, at his residence on Punchbowl street. Mr..
Clifford had been in failing health for some
months previous to his death, and consequently
the visit of the foe of mankind vas not altogether
unlocked for. Mr.. Clifford was born at Holmes
Hole, Martha's Vineyard, Mass, April 10Th, 1877,
and was aged 81 years and one month at the time
OF his death. At an early age Mr.. Clifford COM
menced a sea-farinc life, and soon rose to the
rank of captain, and during his career at sea was
master of several vessels, which position he filled
with credit TO himself and the entire satisfaction
OF the owners. He early in life visited the Society
Islands, where he was married and for time made
those islands his home In lS4S he came to Homo
lulu aud shortly after entered into copartnership
with Lyman Swan in the baking business, at the
corner OF hing and Fort streets. He afterwards
relnquished this to take cnarge of the Commercial
Market, at the toot of Nuuanu street, which he
successfully managed until about three years ago,
when the government requiring the ground for
other purposes, the market was discontinued He
then entered the employment of Hon ]. /. Dowsett
as general clerk which position he held until his
last illness, which finally eliminated in his DEATH
Mr. Clifford during his residence here made host
of friends by his hearty and genial character and
upright course, who sincerely mourn his death,
and tender their heartfelt sympathy to his be-
reaved relatives. His remains were followed TO
their final resting place on Friday last by large
number of our citizens, who did not fail to pay
their last sad tribute of respect to the memory Of
a departed friend and neighbor. Mr. Clifford has
brother residing at Holmes Hole, Mass, and a
sister at Stockton, California

EIGHT PER cEHTl A pretty stiff rate of
exchange, and whether the payer likes IT
or no he has to pay. The financial mis-
management of the Government has
brought the country to this pass. Do the
mechanics and the bone and sinew think
for an instant that this state of things is
not going to affect them. By no means.
They are far too shrewd not to recognize
the danger ahead. Eight per cent ex-
change means that on every article that is
sold the price will have to be advanced:
the large buyer in the end is the poor man
ana from his scanty purse this tribute is

Give us United States gold and away with
the monopoly silverl

Az annual supply of S5O00OO in Ameri-
can gold coin will probably be found sufi-
cient to meet the demands of trade in this
Kingdom, including what gold may be
withdrawn for export. This will cost the
importer, on an average, one per cent. or
$1,000, as the annual cost of providing gold
to meet the wants of trade The expense
of introducing this gold will fall chiefly
on the exporters of produce and on the
importers Of merchandise, in proportion
to their importations This, if continued
permanently. will furnish us with sufi-
cheney Of gold; and, if all debts over FIVE
dollars are payable with it, and silver be-
comes subsidiary currency, very useful
in paving weekly or monthly the 10000
laborers in the Kingdom, ought to place
the country on a sound and economical
gold basis, provided it operates to reduce
the rate of exchange to not over one per
cent premium; andthere is no good reason
to doubt this without proof to the contrary
On the other hand, if the present unset
tied financial situation continues, with
exchange selling at S per cent, and more
likely to advance than decline, the cost to
the country will be very much greater.
Our importations of foreign products are
now on a basis of about six millions, while
our exports amount to eight millions, and
Will naturally increase as our population
increases by the frequent arrival of new
immigrants The amount of exchange an
nually drawn in this Kingdom on foreign
| countries cannot be less than the lowest
valuation of sugar exported, which for the
present year Is estimated at sixty thousand
tons, worth. at five cents per pound, say
S6,O00,00O. At the present rate of exchange
S per cent. its cost will be S4S0,000-the
bulk of which falls on the consumers in
| the advanced cost of their necessaries oi
life. The laboring and poorer people
who constitute ninety-nine hundredthi
of the population, will thus have to pay
tins exTavagant exchange bill Whereas
| If gold were made the basis of our business
with foreign countries the cost of exchange
would be greatly reduced and would no
probably exceed 5000 per annum, and bt
| paid by those much better able to bear it
1t Is well known fact that the duties
imposed at the Custom House on imported
goods, although advanced by importers
are eventually paid by the consumers, il
the higher prices charged by retailers
This Is the simple and plain truth, i'll
paragraph the one instance the con
sumner pays customs tax to the govern
ment of, say, ten or twenty per cent
amounting to at least S500,000, and in tn
other profit of five to ten per cent to thos
who sell the exchange, amounting to three
four, or five hundred thousand dollar
more. Is it not so?

At. FOrt-st. Church.

An immense audience was present at Fo-t-St.
Church Sunday evening to participate in Memo
rial Services in honor of Americas patriot dead.
The church beautifully and appropriately
decorated with American flags, palm-ieaves and
flowers. In front of the pulpit two stands of arms
were stacked on field of maile, sword connected
them and from this was suspended a fine steel en-
craving of Abraham Lincoln. The music was very
fine and inspiring especially the trio, by Mrs.
HanfOrd, Mrs. Cruzan, and Miss Castle, and
America by choir and audience. Pastor Cruzan
was assisted by Rev. Mr.. Furman. of Petaluma,
Cal, in the opening services. His sermon was an
able presentation of the idea that men whose lives
are identified with great cause, belong to human
ity, and should be honored by all who love the
cause for which they labored and sacrificed.

THERE is no teacher like experience. The
condensed arguments Of facts will con.
vince those who care nothing for preach
ing. The placing of exchange at eight
per cent, rs it stands this week. the fact
that it lies in the power of few to do this
has probably left few minds in doubt that
a currency which leaves the community at
the mercy of holders of exchange is thor
oughly unsound. There is no reason to
complain of those who ask all they can get
for exchange. The wonder is that they
sell it as low as they do Those who own
this exchange are the planters, or their
agents. They have to pay for everything
imported which is used by them on their
plantations or elsewhere, full as much
more as exchange costs, why should they
give away that which belongs to them?
The Legislature would deserve the graf
itude of the country if they should quickly
pass Mr.. Dole's gold bill, and thereby
effect a change 10 United States gold cur
rency. The only fault we find with the
Dole bill is that it does not go into effect
until next October The next steamer
should take the orders for bringing United
States gold here, so that it can be opera
tive 10y August. The redemption of the
silver certificates might take several
months, but as soon as they are by law
made payable on demand in gold. they
will be treated as gold. The change how
ever ought to begin in season to have the
gold generally distributed by November.
when taxes are payable.
The advocacy of gold law by all the
Honolulu press without exception, ought
to be significant, and have weight.
1t is certainly to be hoped, that this cur
rency reform viii be carried by the votes
of both parties, as a national measure.

IT cannot be denied that the main op
position to the treaty at the East has been
owing to the belief that it serves merely
to create huge monopoly for Mr. Spreck
els. That it. has served this purpose. is
equally undeniable, and that the tendency
has been, not only to give to him such con.
troll of the Hawaiian and Pacific Coast
sugar markets, but gradually to place in
the same hands the monopoly of all kinds
of business carried on at these islands. tC
say nothing of political control. is well
known. We are not to be blamed by New
! York refiners that we choose the nearest
markets, with the quickest returns. even il
for no higher prices than can be had else

and sustain an injurious monopoly, VT
