THURSDAY, OCTOBER 81, 1873,
A SERIOUS MENACE.

There is reason to fear that this
community does not adequately recog-
nize the grave menace to its peace and
well-being existing in the Chinese
secret societies. Not long ago local
paper published description of the so.
called Highbinders, as they flourish in
San Francisco, copied from Harper'J
Wesky. The article in question caused
a momentary feeling Of something like
a sensation, but public sentiment in
Honolulu is evanescent, requiring fire.
quent refreshment before it terminates
into practical results. Mr.. Neumann,
then Attorney General, at the last pre-
ceding legislative session undertook to
have specific laws passed to meet some
of the palpable nuisances peculiar to
the Chinese colony. He was, however,
met in the Assembly with determined
opposition on cry of class legislation,
and the machinery operating the veto
power was invoked to despatch the
mutilated forms of those measures
of the series which were pressed
through the legislative colander. Dur
ing the late session nothing in that
direction was attempted, perhaps be-
cause nobody thought the labor would
be anything but in vain. Even the
formerly vetoed bill, requiring Chinese
merchants to keep accounts ineligible
to our courts, was not renewed, al
though the experience Of the wholesale
trade in the intervening period seemed
to prove that something of the kind
was necessary.
The neglect of the Legislature to
attempt any preventive measure against
Chinese secret societies msy prove
before long to have been very grave
omission. To-day it is next to impos
sible to procure evidence for the
Crown from Chinese who are in the
best position to give 1t, in any serious
matter for which any of their country
men are to be tried. A veritable reign
of terror is maintained by the Chinese
secret societies, not only over their
membership but the colony in general.
The police know this is SO, the lawyers
know it is, yet there seems to be nc
remedy On the statute books for the
outrageous evil. What should be done
under these circumstances the com
munity should take into serious con
sideration. Almost any days register
OF the Police Court yields proof ol
what has been asserted above. Con
yiction on Chinese evidence for any
offense carrying heavy punishment is
all but impossible to procure against a
Chinaman unless he is caught in the
act by the police. Contrariwise, when
it suits the society the liberty of 6
Chinaman can be sworn away witt
equal facility.

Fall in Silver.

Fall in Silver.
The price of silver per ounce has
fallen in the London market to frac-
ton above forty-three pence. This
makes the "buzzard dollar" coined
under the silver law of 1873, worth
about seventy-three cents, as compared
with the one hundred cent gold dollar,
showing difference of twenty.seven
per cent between the value of the two
dollars. Both are by law made legal
tender at their nominal value in the
payment of debts, unless the contract
otherwise expressly stipulates; yet there
is this difference in their actual value.
The government is guilty of down
right act of glaring dishonesty in this
virtually fraudulent coinage Of silver
dollars declared to be legal tender at
their nominal value. 1t buys silver at
its market price, and then, by coming
it into dollars, it, SO far as it can do,
palms it off upon the people at more
than its real value. 1t does this with
its eyes open, and with full knowledge
of the facts The act is one of intended,
deliberate, and continued rascality, not
the less so because done by the gov
ernment of the United States, and
under the authority and sanction Of
law. The rascality inhered in the
silver law on the very day it was en-
acted; and, from that day to this, it
has been growing worse and worse by
the constant decline in the market
price Of silver.
The idea that the law would restore
silver to its former commercial value,
and thus by its execution become o
just and equitable law, has been thor
oughly exploded by facts. The price
of silver has continued to decline, not
withstanding the coinage demand for
it by the United States; and anyone
with half an eye could have seen that
the United States, acting alone, could
create no coinage demand for this
metal that would materially affect its
market value We are great people,
but not great enough TO fix the com
mercial value of silver IN the general
market of the world. The other great
nations of the earth seem entirely will
ing that we should make fools of our
selves; but they have the good sense to
decline the imitation of our folly. They
prefer to let US make water run up hill
when the law of gravitation says it shall
run down-hill.
Nothing is more certain than that,
under the silver law, unless seasonably
repealed, most serious financial crisis
impends over this country, and that ii
will come whenever the government is
compelled, as in the end it must be, to
force silver dollars upon the accept
ance of the people. This crisis would
have come years ago but for the con
servative and wise policy of the Treas
ury Department in not forcing the cred
itors of the government to take silver
dollars IN liquidation of their claims,
This policy, good as IT is, cannot indef-
initely postpone the crisis. The time
will at length come when the Treasury
will be compelled to abandon the
policy and disgorge its silver upon the
people. This will at once bring upon
the country the impending evil. When
the result comes, and the evil is upon
them, the people will understand, as
they do not now, what this silver
lunacy actually means.-M Y hae-
