SARAH WTNNEMUGeA, daughter of
the famous Indian Chief Winnie
mucca, of the Piutes, has been Iectur-
ing in San Francisco to appreciative
audiences, on the manners and GUS
toms of Indian women. Sarah speaks
we'll in English, but she thinks and
feels in her native tongue. The
Coast reporters style her "princess !"
in derision, but she has q pathetic
story to tell of the wrongs inflicted
upon her sex and people by the "bad
Whites" who taught them to drink,
gamble, smoke and lie. Sarah, how
ever, forgets that the Indians were
not free from vice when the whites
first came In contact with them; but
they certainly have not improved
since then. She is especially severe
in denouncing the Indian agents,
whose populations are a standing re-
proach to the Indian Bureau and the
Interior Department.

for calculation. There are objections
to Chinese immigration of an inter
national character which cannot be
ignored by the Hawaiian Govern
ment and people, and there is ne good
purpose to be served by their dis
cussion. It is sufficient to know that
discussion will not change the policy
and popular feeling of the United
States in regard to Chinese fmmigra-
ton and as this country is mainly
dependent upon the States for it's
market it must be guided in its
industrial policy by its powerful
neighbor if the status quo is to be
maintained. There is no objection in
the States to japanese immigration,
but there is very positive objection,
founded upon observation and expert
ment, to Chinese immigration. Under
our commercial and trading relations
with the States, it is held that Ameri-
| can labor is brought into direct COM
petition with Chinese labor in the
Islands, and, although the argument
is rather strained, we cannot afford to
disregard it.
Comparing the immigration Stats
| tics of last year with those of 1883, we
have the following result:
18S3-net increase. ........ .....7,452
1aS4-nst increase ................2,8 800
This is very satisfactory showing
for the two years taken together,
although the prevalent depression in
business operated unfavOrably to inn
migration in 1884.

HAWAIIAN TRADE WITH PUGET SOUND

The Hawaiian Kingdom is FORUM
ate in its Consular representatives.
They are all gentlemen of ability and
social standing, and through them
the commercial interests of the coun-
try have been enlarged and extended.
One of the most painstaking and
efficient of our Consular staff is Mr..
James @. Swan, H. NJ. Ms. Consul at
Port Townsend, w. r., whose report
for the half year ending December 81,
1884, we have been permitted to
peruse, and from which we summarize
the following points.
The Canadian Pacific Railroad will
be completed to Burrard Inlet by
next September, when the Dominion
Government will make a great effort
to divert the China and Japan trade
from San Francisco and Portland to
its own transcOntinental railroad.
Sir John Macdonald, Premier of the
Dominion, has arranged with the
famous Allan line to have fast steam
Liverpool, in connection with the
overland road from the Pacific Coast
terminus. 1t is also in contempla-
ton by him to establish a line of
steamers from Victoria, B. c., to
China and Japan and Australia, call
ing at Honolulu. In view of this
projected competition, the great
American transportation companies
will be compelled to select a port
on Puget Sound, and the Column
bia river route must then be aban-
doned, to the detriment of Portland,
Oregon. A great diversion of trade
from San Francisco is also imminent.
The Strait of Fuca, and not the Col
umbia river or San Francisco. will be
the objective point for ocean steamers
carrying the commerce of the Indies
or Australia, of Eastern Asia and
Japan, intended for the American
and European markets. This new
ocean stream of commerce will sweep
around the Hawaiian Islands and in
crease their trade and importance in
the industrial and commercial world.
But we must be prepared to take adj
vantage to the utmost of every new
opening, and not drift along the tide
of commerce without a definite pur-
pose.
The present commerce of the Puget
Sound region is depressed, owing
mainly to the last very severe winter
causing prolonged snow bIockades on
the Northern Pacific. Great COM
mercial activity is anticipated during
1885. The Puget Sound district ex-
ported to Hawaii, In the last half of
1884, $119,897 in the shape of lumber,
which was carried mostly in Ameri-
can vessels. Consul Swan mentions
various products of Washington Ter
ritory which may be exported to the
Hawaiian Islands when proper facili-
ties for transportation exist, such as
apples, and other fruits of a
northern climate. The fisheries are
also prolific. Mr.. Swan says, in con-
clusion: al think, if some of the
Hawaiian merchants would indicate
such articles of our product and manu-
features as would pay to ship, that a
small vessel, with an assorted cargo,
could be sent to try the market. At
present, the only demand is for Ium-
Der, and lumber vessels have no room
for other cargoes."

THE CURRENCY QUESTION SETTLED

We print elsewhere one OF the most
important declarations of Ministerial
policy that has ever been made in the
Kingdom. It takes the entire people
of the Islands into the confidence of
the Government, and gives all neces-
sary guarantees that the public credit
Will be sustained. Indeed, in our
judgment, Ministers go further in
this matter than was at all necessary,
because no one ever seriously doubted
the bona fides of their financial
policy. In Difference, however, to an
exaggerated suspicion on the part of
local hnanciers, begotten of prejudice.
the Government have gone the length
Of more fully explaining the provision
they have made for redeeming out
standing silver certificates, and ex-
changing the silver on special deposit
for redemption purposes into its gold
equivalent. That provision renders re-
demptiOn on gold basis an absolute
certainty. Nothing more than this
could be desired by the most rabid
naonOmetalist, and we trust that in
future this vexatiOus question will
not disturb the equilibrium of local
finance.
The Government act prudentIy in
reserving the general question of sill
yer coinage for legislative action. 1t
cannot be disposed of summariIy. It
involves considerations taking a very
wide range, and should not be settled
to the exclusive satisfaction of single
interest of the Kingdom, however in
duential or important. What should
be reached if possible-and we believe
it to be quite possible-is monetary
equilibrium. Let ratio be estab-
lished between the precious metals
which form the medium of universal
exchange, and the currency will take
care of itself. But if gold be exalted
by law, and silver be debased to token
money, there can be no equilibrium,
and those who control credit institu-
tions will have the Industries and
trade Of the country in the hollow of
their hand. They will be at once
King, Ministry, and Assembly, with
out that responsibility for their acts
which should always accompany the
exercise of power.
In these remarks we do not wish it
TO be understood that we are censur-
ing any one in particular, or that we
are disposed to find fault There has
been a surfeit of fault-finding already.
Our desire is to harmonic, not to
divide. The Kingdom needs repose.
Its resources are practically undevel-
oped. No sufficient test has yet been
made of the variety of products which
can be raised here. It has been the
fashion to run to one staple, but the
time has come when a diversity of
products must be created if the coun-
try is to progress. Population and
capital are needed to that end, but
neither will be attracted so long as
those who are here devote their
energies to the task of tearing down
instead of building up.

IMMIGRATION STATISTICS.

Statistics of immigration are always
instructive in new countries. They
are a pretty accurate gauge of its in.
dustrial condition, whether it should
happen that immigration is spon-
taneous or promoted by the Govern
ment, or is managed by associated
effort on the part of employers of
labor. In the case of Hawaii, immi-
grafton is not, as a rule, spontaneous.
The conditions of settlement and in
dustrial development forbid this, as
they necessitate also the selection of
immigrants capable of sustained labor
In the field. This, of course, limits
the range of selection but there is
no reason why our immigration de-
partment should not build up the
industries of the country on a per-
manent basis. This work is now
being well and efficiently done, we
are pleased to state, and we are con-
WINGED that Japanese immigration
will satisfactorily solve the labor
problem. When that point has been
reached, there will be steady in
crease of population and wealth from
the United States and Europe, so that
progress will be equalized In every
direction.
The immigration returns for 1884,
prepared by the very efficient Col
lector-General Of Customs, Colonel
Iaukea, show that the passenger
arrivals were 5,739 departures, 2, $50
net gain of population on the wear
1850. OF these, 1928 were Chinese.
The statistics for the current year

hole in her head, supposing she fell
from bridge.
An elopement party was made

Moral Courage Wanted.

| wish, through the columns of
your paper, to call the attention of
the taxpayers Of the county to their
county court, as a collector of its rev.
enues. From the last report of the
county superintendent of public in,
struction, the number Of polls re-
leased in the county was 1852, max.
ing loss to the school fund of So
1876, II for the year 1884. After the
constabes of the districts of the coun-
ty get their releasements by the court,
the books are retained by them for
collection, and for the year above
named there was reported by the
county superintendent the sum of $40
collected out of the total releasements.
In three of the leading districts of the
county, nearly half of the voting pop
ulation pay no poll tax to the county.
Is our county court lacking in au-
thority to look after such matters? |
presume not. Then why does she
permit such state Of things to go on
year after year without an effort to
correct it? | doubt very much wheth-
err there is justice Of the peace in the
county who has the moral courage
to get up in open court and ask for a
committee to investigate tax matters
in his district. How long will tax
payers submit to such a state of things
and to such system? CITIZEN

More About the Wheel.

AS you were kind enough to publish
my last | will come again with an
item.
said in my last that the Agricul.
tural Wheel was not organized for the
purpose of interfering with any branch
Of legitimate business, but for the
protection of men who farm. First,
from merchants with enormous prof
its, say 30 per cent. over first cost,
and bring them down to Is or 20.
Well, how will we bring them to this,
says one? By making contract with
some house to sell members of the or.
der at certain per cent, say 16s,
the merchant opening his books to a
committee for the purpose Of looking
after this part of the work. Next, by
settling our matters in the Wheel by
arbitration. Say two members have
misunderstanding about some mat
ter; instead of going into the courts of
the state, select three good men, cool
headed, members of the order and lay
all the facts before them and the mat
ter ends without cost to anybody.
This one item alone will save the
farmers of this state thousands of doll
lars per annum, and is one of the
growing evils of the day. Farmers
having over five dollar damage suits,
spend hundreds of dollars 10 cost and
lawyers fees, This, in my mind, is one
of the leading issues in the order.
Next, by meeting monthly through
the year and exchanging ideas about
farm matters. If / can give my
neighbor some information that leads
to some improvement in farming and
he the same to me, it will have 4 ten ,
dency to make farmers better friends
and more social than they are now.
We lack confidence in one another
This is the case with all classes of men,
but more so with farmers.
