THE SAMOAN MISSION.

1t is an open secret that the Hon. j.
T. Bush proceeds to Samoa by the next
outgoing Australian Royal Mail steamer
as Minister Plenipotentiary to King NAL
ietoa, al interim monarch Of Samoa, and
that Mr.. Henry +. Poor accompanies
him as Secretary OF Legation. AS the
mission is to be a purely Hawaiian one
we do not well see how Il could be bet
tered OF course it would be easy
enough to select men of larger expert
ence among the foreign element OF the
population, but rs a representative Ha-
waiian mission, blending the best ele-
ments of the races which have amalga-
mated on Hawaiian soil, it is unexcep-
tionable. And in saying this, we also
sincerely wish it success.
But failure or success will depend very
much more upon external influences
than upon the Mission itself. 1t is
hardly to be expected at this stage in
the Polynesian question that the way to
Hawaiian influence and ultimate SOW
ereignty should be as clear OF obstacles
as it was four or five years ago In poiut
OF fact we know that such is not the
case. New interests have sprung up,
and new responsibilities have been
created with which Hawaii is ALSO
lutely powerless to grapple. And the
Powers interested in Samoa, and in
Polynesia in its broadcast sense, think so
too, because some time ago they APP
pointed a Commission to report upon
Samoan affairs without reference to Ha-
waiian influence. Nevertheless, a wise
and judicious intervention on the part OF
Hawaii at this crisis might do good, and
that is just where the difficulty arises.
Will Hawaiian Intervention be wise and
judicious; and will the Powers who
have an interest in the Samoan archi-
pelago be satisfied with the location of
an embassy at Apia which must out
rank their own consular representative
upon all occasions? OF course we can
not possibly tell what the Powers may
do. Ii they acquiesce, then the work OF
the Samoan Embassy is clear. 1t solves
all difficulties and brings Samoa within
the political influence OF the Hawaiian
Government.
But suppose they do not, in what posi-
ton are our representatives placed, and
what influence can they possibly eXer-
else? We assume that His Excellency
Mr.. Gibson is well and truly advised
upon these points, and that he is not
sending out an embassy upon the mere
chance OF its being recognized -Four or
five years ago the field was unoccupied,
but since then great changes have taken
place If, however, the Governments of
Washington, London ana Berlin invite
the Honolulu Executive to send diplo
matte mission To- Samoa to direct the
domestic policy OF that country well and
good; if not, We are inclined To think
that our Samoan Embassy Is going
on wild-goose-chase, and will re-
turn sIdder if not wiser men. Let
us say this, however, that there Is
field of enterprise open to Hawaii in
Samoa and other insular groups of the
Pacific But it is to be occupied by com
mercial agents, who promote commerce
aud trade.

OF information respecting this old estab-

as follows: 'The great merits OF life in

LOCALISM

1t is often a characteristic OF persons
who have been born and reared, and
subsequently established themselves
permanently in the same place that they
take little or no interest in what l. trans
piring elsewhere. Their little world is
for them the whole world. They live
there in soul as well as body, their ideas
seldom penetrating beyond the limits of
its particular circle. They know every
man, woman and child within those
precin cts, and often manifest an abnor-
mai 4 mount OF interest in the smallest
details pertaining To them. But OF the
affairs Of nations, or even in some cases
of their own nation, they care nothing.

Explanation From Mr.. Miller.

EDITOR SIGNAL CoriAHAN:-~i see III
your last issue some comments upon
the action OF Governor Lowry for par
doning Melissa Henley, convicted ut
the recent term OF circuit court Of CO.
piah county for violation of the liquor
law. Justice to the Governor de-
mands that | shall explain the matter
to you and through You, TO your read
crs. When the prohibition act first
went into effect il was my opinion and
the opinion of some Of the bar, that it
was no violation OF the law TO order
whiskey for another person from
New Orleans. Melissa Henley, an ig-
norant colorcd woman, applied to
Capt. l.. Il. Harris, member OF the
bar, TO know II il would be lawful for
her 10 order whisky for customer OF
her little store. Capt. Harris. w. IN
attorney, advised her itwould be law
full to do 80. Mr.. L. w. Brown, cir-
cult clerk, advised her to the same cf-
feet. Acting Oh this advice she or
dercd whiskey for one OF her custom
era, and for this she was subsequently
indicted.
The court held that ordering II was
disposing of il within the meaning OF
the act, AMI upon reflection the bar,
believe generally, concurrcd In the
construction of the law. Upon tins
.hc pleaded guilty by advice of Harris
X Dodds, her attorneys. Upon rep
rescntation Of the foregoing facts by
Capt. Harris and Mr.. Brown TO me
and Judge Wharton we promptly
recommended her pardon TO the Gov
ernor. and if any blame attaches TO
anybody for her pardon il ought TO be
us.
/ think the law ought TO be enforced
in all proven cases. and | have en-
leavorcd to do so us best ! was able,
but its enforcement, ] respectfully i'll
sist. would have brought the law into
contempt with its best friends who
love justice and hate wrong. She had
acted in good faith ON the advice of an
able lawyer, and 10 havcpunishcd her
would have shocked thu sense Of every
\
Just friend OF prohibition.
