The Sleepy Eye Herald. IN trying TO
make out that Hon. c. X. Davis is a
high tariff man.. endeavors to convey
something to its readers that lacks the
element of truth. Mr.. Davis is not a
high tariff man. That he is in favor of
a reasonable tariff is TO his credit, and
that he is also in favor of a revision of
existing duties is likewise stand that
will be seconded by majority of the
members elect ofthe legislature. In TAX
ing the step in favor ofthe Republican
ticket Mr.. Davis did only that which his
partisan zeal prompted and only what
lay in his line of duty to his party. lie
did not thea, neither does he now, ask
Democratic votes to elect HIM To the
United States Senate unless, indeed,
members of that party feel that he is
entitled, from a standpoint of qualifica-
ton, to their support. Mr.. Davis
expects to be elected by Republican
votes, and while Bro. Bowen would show
his good judgement in supporting him f.,
from party point Of view he will be
justified in supporting minority can
didate if lie so Wills.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND is a peculiarly
close corporation. He has given orders
that the White House grounds must be
cleared of visitors and the gates closed
against outsiders before he Will venture
outside the door of his abode. Cleve-
land, il should be remembered, is man
of the people, "reformer," so to speak,
and his exclusiveness is decidedly ex-
elusive. Other Presidents have survived
the gaze of curious people, hut the pres
ent executive is so much of q curiosity
that he is rather touchy on that point.

The RegieU is seriously dlsgruntled at
our article on McGill's victory, and
enthusiastically charges US with a vii
famous SANDER upon the Democratic
party. fla gentleman is TO be judged by
the company he keeps, why should not
parties be judged by the candidates for
the highest positions in the gift of the
people? And did we attribute any
characteristic to the Democratic nomi-
nee for governor that he has not borne
among his own townsmen for Iyears?
But the ReC;ew fails to say word in de-
Tense of its candidate. 1t admits the
mob that assailed the Republican pro-
cessIon the night before election was
composed of a band of hoodlums. which
il true, but only friends and supporters
of Ames were to be found in the group,
and they were led by one of his princi-
pal strikers and campaign workers.
That particular class of bipeds in all por-
tons of the State supported him. He
had the support of that element OF ali
parties, and while we never contended
that all of the men who supported Ames
were bummers, it goes without saying
that all bummers supported him. 1t is
well known that he had the support of
the entire liquor interests; many votes
were drawn to him from the labor Or
CARNATIONS, and also from the Farmers
Alliance, through his speeches of mis-
representation; and his fabrications, ex-
aggerations, ETC., anent the men who
have invested their money in the mill
ing business of our State, grinding mil
lions of bushels of wheat annually into
-four which would otherwise have been
manufactured in Milwaukee, Chicago,
or other Eastern cities, were strongly
endorsed by such reckless and unrelia-
bic sheets as the st. Paul Globe and
MankatO .RerieW. These millers, who
have done more for the farming and la
boring interests of our State than thou
sand regiments of such men as Ames
and his strikers, were dubbed as band
of robbers, organized TO swindle the far
mers and laborers. For the leader of q
party, backed up as Ames was by the
worst system of bossism ever inflicted
upon State i'm the history Of our govern
ment, to 20 about the country indulging
i'm such TRADES of abuse was enough 10
disgust honest men, and although the
odge-podge of discordant elements,
each faction upon platform of its own,
supported Ames, while the Prohibition
lists Joined hands with the rabble to defeat
the Republican candidate, they lnglori-
ously failed. If the RerieW is proud of

it is every way probable that Mr.. James

Wharf at Kuau,... $1,000
The Pacific Navigation Co. had a
good wharf there and did not charge
the people one cent.
Rep. Richardson said the
S5, 900 for the stingy people up at
Kau was to cure them of their
stinginess, but the company owning
the Kuau wharf did not need such a
remedy, as they had lately declared
a dividend of 50 share.
Rep. kalua said the company de-
claring the dividend was not the
steamer but plantation company.
He moved to make the item 81, 900.
Rep. Thurston said he knew it
was coming, and now he saw memoir
anda to his right and left, covering
pages of foolscap, for appropriations
for wharves all over the islands.

with an economical streak, but a

FOURTH OF JULY,

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July,
but as tomorrow is Sunday the
fourth has been practically post
poned n day, so that Monday will
be observed as the fourth this year
by the people of Honolulu. TO all
Americans-fifty millions of free
people-the Fourth of July is the
great day of all the year, because it
is the day that marks their COM
mencement as free and indepen-
dent nation. This is Americas and
Americans special interest in the
day. But every country and people
where the influence of liberty is felt
has real. if Indirect, interest in
the same day, because it marks the
beginning of new and better era
for the world. Here in these islands
are people of many nations, all of
whom have more or less cause to be
thankful for the declaration of l776,
and should therefore join heartily
with Americans in commemorating
the day. May the great American
nation continue to grow and prosper
and extend her influence far and
wide, is the sincere wish of every
man and woman who loves freedom
and believes in the equality of human
rights. Long live the Republic.

NoN.ATTENDANCE OF NlsLEs.

Non-attendance at the sittings of
the Legislature of members, parti-
cularly of the appointed portion,
the Mobiles, has been commented on
in the house during the week. Alb
sentees were justly censured by
some speakers for their neglect of
public duties. We would be the
last to excuse any man for inatten-
tion to the responsibilities of a ma
tional trust, and have no intention
to take upon ourselves the task of
apologizing for the delinquency of
the country's permanent legislators.
duty to say that insinuations were
dropped in the house calculated to
mislead the uninformed. In the
first place, there are several vacant
seats of Mobiles who are absent from
the country, one of whom is on
public business. In the second
place, there are others who are ire
gular in their attendance for private
reasons, sufficient and satisfactory
to gentlemen. And, in the third
place, the occasional or frequent
absence of some who might be regu-
luarly present if so inclined, is not
''because they are sore-headed from
the loss of Office Some of these
gentlemen never had office, and
therefore could not have lost it, and
cannot now be distressed about hav-
ing lost what they have never lost.
Perhaps they never had chance
we are not posted. But others OF
them have certainly had opportuni
ties and offers of office, which they
have most respectfully and most de
cidedly declined. Surely these gen
tlemen cannot be sore-headed be
cause of being out of office, seeing
that they have refused office whel
rendered, and would most assuGedll
decline again and again. We won
der if those who talk in this strain
who say that Mobiles absent them
selves from legislative duties be
cause they do not receive the honor
and emoluments of office, really be
lieve what they assert, or do the.
say it simply because they can fin
nothing else to say, or because the
feel it duty to say somethin
vulgar and offensive? The frs
alternative is the credulity of ignol
ance, the second paucity of intellect
and the third mistaken notion {
