PRESIDENT cLEvELAND's LETTER:

Touching on the Purposes Of the Demo-
crotic Clubs.
New York, September 15.-Hon. Chauncey
F. Black, president of the national associa-
ton of democratic clubs, day received
the following letter from President Clevs-
land:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, d. c., September 6.
Hon. Chauncey F. Black, President, ETC.:
MY DEAR SR-The papers which you
kindly sent for my perusal. touching tho
method and purpose of the association of
democratic clubs have strengthened my be.
lief in the extreme importance of such Or
ganization as have thus been associated.
The struggle upon which we have entered is
in behalf of the peopIe-tho plain people
of the land-and they must be
reached. We do not proceed upon the
theory that they are to be led by others who
may OF may not be in sympathy With their .
voters as free independent citizens, intelli-
gent enough to see their rights. Inter
ested enough to insist upon being treated
justly and patriotic, enough to desire their
country's welfare. Thus this campaign is
one of information and organiza-
ton. Every citizen should be regarded az q
thoughtful, responsible voter and he should
be furnished the means of examining the
issues involved in the pending canvass for
himself. am convinced thar no agency
is so effective to this end as
the clubs which have been formed
in all parts of the country and
making their influence felt in every neigh
borhood. BY systematic effort they make
the objects of the democratic party under
stood by the fair and calm discussion Of the
democratic position in this con-
test and among these with whom
their members daily come in contact,
and by preventing neglect Of the duty Of
suffrage on election day. These clubs will be-
come. IN my opinion, the most important in
success Of our party. Yours very truly,
GROvKB CLKvnAHD.

ments of science have discovered prac-
teal use for every part of the berry.
Enquiries have actually been made here
from New York as to whether the whole
berry could be obtained. No doubt
something could be done in this line. Ii
our public-spirited men would only take
hold we should soon have a new story to
tell. Instead of importing coffee we
should soon become large exporters.
There is no reason why we should not
export millions of pounds of coffee as
we'll as thousands of tons of sugar.
Talking is, however, of very little value.
Gentlemen of Hawaii, will you take

Notes from Paia.

Notes from Paia.
Mr.. EDITOR: On the evening of the
1st inst, Mr.. Manoel Morgado, a Portu-
guese employed on Paia plantation, in
vited several gentlemen in the neighbor-
hood to witness an examination of the
pupils attending the night school taught
by him, the object of which is to afford
an opportunity to Portuguese children to
acquire a rudimentary education in their
own language which they cannot obtain
in the Government schools. The exer-
cises gone through evidenced painstak-
ing efforts on the part OF the teacher,
the reading and writing of the pupils
being particularly deserving of praise
The action of this gentleman in vOlun-
tarily inaugurating and conducting this
school is deserving OF recognition.
In connection with school matters |
wish to refer to a communication which
appeared in the weekly GAZETTE of
August 28th from "ObserVer,'' Spreck-
elsville This observant paterfamilias,
at least we will presume that he is one,
begins by asking why the Government
does not establish schools for the chill
dren of white mechanics at whatever
Out-Of-the-Way place or plantation they
may for brief season elect to live! AS
we'll ask the Government to supply these
self-exiled gentry with private tutors for
their offspring, to be paid at the expense
of the general taxpayer. observer"
seems to think, perhaps by some physi
illogical reasoning, that bringing chill
dren of different natiOnaliUies under the
same roof will result in transforming
them into a sort OF vOlapukian mixture
by which each will lose its distinctive
race characteristics. Again he makes
the astounding observation that the
children for whose welfare he is so solicit
tous will learn more evil in one hour in
the Government school than it is pos.
sible for them to learn of good in twelve
months! Here is something that GER
tainly deserves the attention OF the Gov
eminent. for either it's schools are howl
ing pandemoniums worthy the tutelage
of the Prince of SheOl, or on the other
hand these white children must have a
fiendish propensity for acquiring evil and
slow to pick up a grain OF good. In the
latter case, if this is the result of evolu-
ton, fear the Caucasian race will be
left far behind in the struggle for the
survival of the fittest. AS a member of
that family [ hope neither of the above
surmises have any foundation; rather
will / believe that the observations of
"Observer" were made through defec-
tive optics and that his deductions there
from are mere rant.
ANTI-HUMBUG.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1888-09-10

PERHAPS those who read the article in
Saturdays ADVERTISER upon the indus
tries of the country, will next enquire
what are the industries which yet re-
main to be developed. 1t is difficult to
answer this in one sentence, but few
suggestions may not be without use. The
cultivation of coffee is certainly one
which may be called an undeveloped in
dustry. OF course coffee has been grown
here for great many years, and those
who have tried it and lost money will
feel that nothing new is to be learned
1t is no longer a question whether coffee
will grow, for that has been established
beyond doubt; there is also no ques-
ton as to the product to be obtained, nor
as to the quality of the berry. The first
is large, the second of superior quality !;
the only remaining question is, there
fore, whether coffee can be produced to
pay. The price has risen throughout
the world, the demand is largely increas-
ing, and, what is of more importance,
coffee of high quality will always and
everywhere command the best price
Let fraction merely of the ability and
energy applied to the production of sugar
be used with coffee, and large results
will be obtained. The history of this
industry throughout the world shows
that our coffee-growing to-day is in the
most primitive condition The growth
and production of coffee now requires
improved methods, improved machinery,
and intelligent skill in all departments
This machinery is much less expensive
than any sugar machinery, requiring
very much less capital to engage in the
business. The sugar industry of to-day
is certainly not as promising as the
coffee. The coffee bill having failed to
become law, it now lies with our men
of energy and capital to inaugurate the
cultivation of coffee with these improved
methods and intelligent work. 1t need
not either interfere with the growth of
sugar The district of Kona, on the
Island of Hawaii, and similar locations
on the other islands, are all adapted to
the growth of the finest coffee and will
not interfere with sugar because sugar
has not succeeded in those locations.
Another advantage of this industry is
that it affords an opportunity for many
small producers to take it up, joining in
the use of single plant for cleaning the
coffee. 1t is also true that it is unneces-
sary to clean or shell the berry at all. |
Good coffee we'll dried obtains the high |
est price abroad because the develop

THE BRIBERYI INVESTIGATION.

The committee met in the room ado in
ing the Legislative chamber at O'Clock
p. m.
Mr.. J. s. Magoon was sworn to act as
clerk of committee.
The resolution adopted by the House
was read by the chairman in English, and
by Interpreter Wilcox in Hawaiian.
The chairman said the members charged
are not required to make any answer to
the charge unless they choose to do so.
Mr.. KamauOha said he had not been
paid anything by the Chinese for himself
or for any other member. He was OPP
posed to the Anti-Chinese amendment
from the first and what he did was not
with the expectation Of being paid, but be-
cause he considered It was his duty to op-
pose 1t.
Rep. Kauhi denied all the allegations
concerning himself.
The Acknowledgement was asked if he
was ready to put III evidence, to which he
answered that he would put to the gentle
men accused a few questions which they
could answer or not as they pleased His
Excellency further asked the opinion of
the committee as to the publicity of the
proceedings, or whether it would be Judi
cious to allow the evidence to be published
until after the conclusion of the investiga-
ton.
The chairman, after consultation with
members of the committee, said it was the
wish of a majority of them that the inves-
tlgat1On be open only to persons interested
and to members of the House, and that
the evidence should not be published until
after the committee reports to the House.
Spectators, on being informed of the de-
clslOn of the committee, retired
The Attorney General called attention to
the fact that there were reporters present.
One OF the reporters so charged handed
the committee a copy of the Rules OF the
House, No. q of which reads as follows:
2-Meetings of committees shall be pub
lie unless otherwise ordered by special vote
of the House.
The chairman stated to said reporter that
1T was the desire of the committee that no
part of the evidence be published until
after the committee reports to the House.
to which the reporter replied that he had
no objections not TO do so, but as amember
OF the " public, he claimed the right, I'M
der No. q Of the rules of the House, to be
present at the investigation.
The investigation proceeded. The evil
dence will be published in full, in the
course of few days, when reported to the
Legislature.
