The Jamaica and Ha,raiian Sugar Pianfa-
fions

EDITOR DAILY Honolulu Press :
.Siy-In the highly instructive commu-
nication of Mr. J. Marsden published
in the Planters MonthLy about the sugar
industry in Jamaica, he points out that
the production of rum is zoos, 563 gal
Ions for 1883. This amount wants 1880
tons of moasses for its production, con
tanning 1880 cwt. of mineral salts
taken from the soil and which are lost
regularly, year by year, in manufacturing
rum from the molasses Hence the
reason for the increasing impoverish-
ment of the soil and the decadence Of
the sugar industry in that country. The
Hawaiian Islands produce more than
double this sum, consequently the loss
would be $4,000 cwt. with only five
per cent. of mineral salts in the molasses.
This should be an earnest warning for
our planters, and signifies what it means
to kill the goose that lays the golden
eggs. Ten years more Of this system
and there will be neither sugar nor rum
manufactured in beautiful Jamaica.
Here in these Islands the molasses is
wasted in the most indiscriminate way,
and the children Of the living generation
will have to suffer the loss of her princi-
pal staple caused by the want of wis
dom in their ancestors. The heavy claims
of cane soils can, under no circum-
stance, be neglected, and when, if not
fulfilling those claims, the effect in these
sugar-producing Islands, of new date, is
not yet felt, the time will arrive, must
arrive, when it will be felt-and what
then ? X

sUCoEssFUL LECTURERS.


"The largest house a lecturer ever
drew" said Major Pond, twas when
Beecher lectured in the Chicago Taber-
nacle few winters ago. The receipts
were $4,000 and the prices were fifty
and seventy-hve cents. remember
the circumstances well. They were
quite unusual A South Park minister,
with big debt on his church, wrote
me for Beecher's terms. ] replied that
they were 81, 900 for city like Chi
cago. The minister had scrapcd to
gether that much money and decided
to risk it. He hired the tabernacle for
$500, paid George Carpenter $500 more
for managing the lecture and adver-
tised extrayagantly. When we arrived
in Chicago and were told what he had
been doing | thought he was fool and
told him so. Said |, You can't help
but lose money with such reckless man
agement.' Well, night came and along
with it came throng after throng, until
the tabernacle contained nearly eight
thousand people. The venturesome
minister cleared $500, enough to pay
his church debt. And he had sense
enough not to enter into the amuse-
ment business again. He probably
would have lost next time,
"Next to Beecher, Mark Twain is
the most profitable speaker know OF.
He cleared $4,000 in sixteen weeks,
in his venture with Gable last season,
after paying the latter $500 per week
and giving me ten per cent of the
gross receipts for doing the managing,
All this talk, by the way, about any fall
ing out between Twain and Gable is
the veriest of nonsense Gable will
make another tour next season. Ht

SATURDAY. NOV. aS, 1885
OCTOBER Bird, 1878.

In the Nh Hou of the above date
appears an editorial, which like old
wine has improved with age. Some Of
its points may be somewhat out OF
date, but taken as whole it so aptly
fits the present political situation Of
Hawaii that we cannot forebear bringing
it again before the public. His Excel
lency the present Premier was at that
time the logical and consistent editor
of the M Hen, and we hope that he
will consider our reprinting this edi'
torial, which SO logically and truthfully
applies to the present :" Dummy Gov
ernment," in no other light than that oi
a sincere compliment to his quondam
ability. The misty ministerial fugle-
man" is supposed to be one of the
present Minister'S feeble predecessors
"A Dummy Government, according
to the Ministerial fugleman is what
would suit us best. We do not need
live men, although we may need live
paper which with him means more
scissors than sense; but 'live man is
luxury in which we have not INDUCED
for 10 these thirty years, and which we
may we'll dispense with for three de-
cades more. Prosperous land 1t has
been happy with its political ounces in
the past, and asks only continuance
of its blissful, public inanity. But was
this the fugleman's song, only short
year or two ago, when he could get no
grist for his mill, no jobs for his
shop? All then, we had great need OF
live man. according to this cry. And
now that his mouth is stopped, shall We
accept him as an oracle of conserva-
tism, and be content while he bats at
the public club2 No, we are not so
enamored Of the glories of the past, or
the present although, by the way, the
past far exceeded the presently that we
shall not desire change. We must
have the live spirit at the head Of Gov
ernment that is zohOly de90ted to the
public service, that understands the
people and can harmonic their views
with the needs of authority that is
full of resource to meet special difficult
ties that by an active, initiative direc
ton of public affairs will inspire the
confidence of ability both at home and
abroad that will forestall schemers
and grumblers by fertility of devices,
that will sustain at all hazards the
honor of the King and the 'sacredness
ofGovernmcnt, or giae a0ay tor men fhal
can, that will study the minuest details
as well as embrace the largest views
whether in relation to treaties fol
national needs, or regulations for muni
cipal conyeniences, that will do al
this, so as to meet and satisfy public
expectation and create the confidence
of healthful progress Such will be ;
spirit that will be live and fruitful 0
good and sorely needed in poor weak
country like this which must b'
saved from the dummies, saved from
the cliques, saved from the rings,
saved from the narrowness of view
meanness, weakness, and cowardlce
and be rescued by live men"

1t is needless for us to pass comment,
personal or otherwise, upon the above

therein, as applying to the present

consideration of His Majesty the King
and to the taxpayers generally.

A CoNUNDRUM.

Among the conundrums propounded
to The HERALD is one, which boiled
down, may be stated thus: IF all the
polygamous men are sent 10 the peni-
tertiary, what will become of their
wives and children?" The problem is too
intricate for THE HERALD to solve. and
the solution implies deeper peering
into the future than this journal would
dare to profess. We may state gener-
ally however, and without any feigning
of prophetic powers, that all the
polygamous men will not be sent to the
penitentiary that half of them will not
be sent there; that not one-tenth
of them will be convicted and
imprisoned. let the courts and
their officers be as active and
industrious as they may. A good many
may have to go to prison, and forty or
fifty are a good many in speaking of
polygamists.
However the question asked by our
correspondent is one that the govern
ment and the courts can with wisdom
and propriety ask themselves, whether
or not they can answer it. They can
also ask themselves if the sending of the
men to the Penitentiary is not apt to be
productive of vastly greater immortality
than open and avowed polygamy, ad-
uniting that polygamy is immoral as the
law declares and the courts say. Nor
mon women and children are simply
human, and deprived of their
natural protectors and of those
who provide for their care
and support, they will display
more than ordinary courage. virtue and
fortitude if many of them do not stray
from the path of rectitude; but it is not
believed that the evil consequences to
these people will be bad. though the
natural effect of such raid in an ordi-
nary community would be anything but
pleasant to contemplate by persons who
delight in morality and in the proper
of children.

LAST WEEK the United States District
Court at New York allowed S26.O39
salvage for the service rendered the
Alaska last winter by the steamer Lake
Winnipeg. 1t will be remembered that
the AIaska lost her rudder and was
steered into port by the Winnipeg, and
the latter put in a claim for $3.50 900.
The Court, however. seemed to be i'm
pressed with the idea that there was
Justice in the case, and acting upon that
impression cut down the figure to the
above stated amount The Winnipeo,
a slow freight-boat, was hitched behind
the Alaska and did the steering, while
the latter did all the pulling. In this
manner the Winnipeg reached New
York two days ahead of time. OF course
the service rendered the disabled vessel
was valuable, but as it was done with
out danger and at no expense, the pay
seems to be ample.

THE MEMORY OF the Morey letter for
gerry has been revived by the securing OF
verdict for 5000 by Kenward Philip
against the New York Tribune. The
paper charged Philip, who was one of
the editors of New York Truth, with
having forged the letter and placed it
before the public as the production of
President Garfield. Philip sued the
Tribune for libel, and on the witness
stand swore that he had nothing to do
with the composition, the writing or the
publication of the letter, and that he
never saw it until it appeared in print.
The jury believed Mr.. Philip. and last
week rendered verdict for the sum
stated.

THE FINANCIERs of Canada are i'll as
deplorable a predicament as those OF
Turkey or Egypt, the difficulty with
which they are contending being to
bring the expenditures of government
within the revenues. So far thev have
succeeded only to the extent of increas-
ing the public debt at the rate of 50 $780,
600 a month, and now an expensive
Indian war comes up to pile higher and
higher debt that already reaches $780,
100000. There are only 4,5OO, 900 people
to be taxed, hence the outlook for the
Dominion is anything but bright.
