A NEW Republican paper is to be started in
Louisville, KY, of which Gen. John w Fin
nell is to be one of the proprietors. In their
prospectus they say: 1--WE propose to take
special pains to impress upon the people of
this State the wisdom of a severance of their
party political relations with the Southern
wing of the Democratic party Barring a
slight tendency to redundancy, this announce
ment commands our hearty approval. We
fear, however, that the breed of Kentucky
Democrats is still far from extinct, and that
depressing majority of the people of that State
will continue to prefer death to ga severance
of their party political relations with the
Southern wing of the Democratic party

WHEN Public Printer Benedict took r

WHEN Public Printer Benedict took pos
session of his Office he turned out Republicans
right and left with such haste and partisan
zeal that the souls of hopeful and hungry
Democrats were filed with joy. Now, how
ever, the same individuals are heaping exc
crations upon him for putting as foreman of
the printing a man who has been for years
connected with the Office and is we'll known
as an active and earnest Republican These
grumblers evidently forget that, contrary to
the rules and regulations provided in the
case, Mr.. Benedict is not practical printer
and is necessarily compelled to have men
about him who understand the business Mr..
Benedict has apparently accumulated slight
degree of respect for the ciyil-seryice system
since his first sweep"

C0NFESSES MO MAJORITY.

The desperate straits to which the Indiana
harmony that prevails among them, are illus
trated by the attempt that is being made to
bring about combination between the Dem
ocrats ssdsthe Labor party for the election of
Mr.. Bynum to the Senate. OF course the
combination cannot be made, and would not
work if it could be; but the fact that Bynum
and his friends are trying to make it, and are
getting converts here and there, shows what a
shifting foundation the Democratic party in
this State rests upon, and how thoroughly it is
torn in pieces by internal dissensions The
attempted combination proceeds on the theory
that only by that means can Democrat be
elected Senator There are three Republicans
elected to the Legislature as labor men, or by
the aid Of the labor vote, and Mr.. Bynum's
managers assume that the votes of these mem
bers are necessary to elect Democratic Sen
ator. This is equivalent to an admission that
the Democrats will not have a major
ty in the Legislature-an admission
whose honesty should commend it
for imitation by the Gray and Mcdonald
factions. The difference between Bynum
and the other aspirants is, that while he viz
tually admits that the Democrats have not a
majority and proposes to obtain the neces-
sary votes by capturing Republican labor
men, Mcdonald and Gray are publicly claim
ing that the Democrats have an honest ma
jority, while they are secretly trying to es-
tablish majority by fraudulent and revolu.
tionary methods. And all the time they are
each trying to knife the other, and Bynum is
trying to undermine both of them.

of sensational preaching as paying investment.
One of the reverend doctors has been obliged to
apologize to his church for his conduct, and to
say that as he meant well he hoped his parish

THE AGRICULTURAL BUREAU.

The proposition to create Department of
Agriculture and Labor, with Cabinet officer
at its head, is again before Congress. 1t is
one of those propositions of which good deal
can be said on both sides. On the Que hand
the Importance of agriculture as a great
branch of national industry is universally
conceded, as is the duty of the government
to use all legitimate means under corstitu-
tional limitations for its advancement and
promotion. The farming interest oyershadows
all others in magnitude and Importance, and
if the powers of the government may prop
erly be exercised in behalf of any branch of
industry, none has greater claims than agri-
culture. But it is question how far the
government can or ought to go, and it had
better do little we'll than attempt too much
and fail entirely. There is more need of a
vigorous and practical administration of the
Agricultural Bureau, as now organized,
than there is of enlarging its field of
operations or adding to its official dignity.
The Commissioner of Agriculture would
not be rendered any moro useful by making
him Cabinet officer. Itwould add to his sal

sum Of e. per ton. or $40, is paid as a
bounty. In addition to this, it is Under
stood in the trade that the American ex-
port refners have further advantage
equal to 81 30 per ton, owing TO the diff
ferent methods of estimating the value
Of sugar in Europe and America. 1t
thus appears that whereas the English
refner has only a margin Of $50 per ton
to work upon, his American competitor
has $32 80. In other words, the American
refner has an advantage OF $12 80 per
ton over the English refiner in the Brit
ish markets. This fact accounts for the
rapid increase in the quantity Of refined
sugar shipped from Eastern ports to
England and Scotland, and has been the
main argument in favor of fair trade ;"
in other words, a retaliatory tariff.
Furthermore, the London market has
latterly been overwhelmed with Russian
sugar There were 80, 1913 tons OF unre-
fined sugar unsold in Russia at the close
of 1885, and as this seasons crop prom
ises TO be exceptionally plentiful, the
result Is an immense over-productiOn.
To get rid of this surplus stock the
Russian Government has given large
bOunties on foreign expectations, name
", 0.96 penny per pound on raw, and
one penny Z cents per pound for re-
fined or brown sugar. Russian sugar
imports, as a consequence, have run up
in excess Of the imports from America
The monthly average imports into Eng
land from America for 1888 was $40 tons
in 1884 it was ,343 tons and in 1885 il
had increased to 1919 tons. But in Jan
uary, 1886, the imports Of Russian sugar
into England aggregated 1O,364 tons
These heavy imports displaced a CORE
spending quantity OF home refined sugar
and therefore reduced employment and
crippled trade.
The pay OF English sugar refners
when employed, was % shillings ($4 so,
per week of ten hours daily. At least
fifteen hundred men of good character
and experience in this industry are out
of employment in the East end of Lon
don, and would doubtless be glad of al
opportunity to emigrate to some country
where they could earn living. Theil

THE LEGISLATURE.

The Legislative Assembly made salts
factory progress yesterday. Outside the
usual routine OF new business, one of
the most important bills of the session
was considered by sections and amended.
1t was ordered to engrossment and third
reading tomorrow. We refer to the
Honolulu fire limit bill, which will be
found printed as amended in another
column. This was a necessary act of
legislation, and we are pleased to be able
to express approval of the way it was
handled by the House The bill in
its present shape is almost certain to
become law.
A resolution by Mr.. Thurston brought
out an explanation by the Minister of the
Interior in reference to the Homestead
Act, and the land in possession of the
Government available for settlement 1t
appears that the Government holds
at its disposal S34, 900 acres, so far as has
been ascertained, but the process of in
vestigation is proceeding and more terri
tory may be discovered. OF this total
aboutalO0,OOO acres may be classed as
barren consisting OF unavailable mountain
tops, lava flows, etc. This is not u large
territory certainly, but considering the
total area OF the country it is considera-
BILE. A good deal may be done with it if
it be properly and intelligently managed,
but this will depend in great measure
upon the Legislature. When the report
of the Minister of the Interior is before
the Assembly full details will be availa-
BILE for greater information.
A great many petitions and resolutions
were presented from outlying districts
for grants of public money for various
purposes. Conspicuous among these is
the erection of lock-ups and Court houses.
To judge by the number of these resolu-
tons and petitions during the session, a
stranger might be excused if he con-
Guided thatone-haIfoft he population were
engaged in litigation and that the other
half were liable to imprisonment OF
course this would be gross exaggera-
ton. but the clamorous demand for pub
lie expenditure seems to take this form
as the one most likely to meet with a
response from the Legislature. If, as
has been said, the estiEnates of expendi-
ture exceed the probable income, what
would be the condition of affairs if every
outside demand for money were incor-
porated in the Appropriation Act? Gen
eral discomfort would be created, and
the Government, which could not meet
every appropriation, would be accused
of unfair discrimination and other ugly
charges with which Opposition news
papers have made us familiar, from pre-
cisely similar cause.
