THE SPEAKERS REMARKS OVER POCKET
PICKING INCIDENT IN THE CROWD.
Judge Thurman, democratic candidate for
Vice President, iopened the democratic cam
paign at Port Huron, Mich, Wednesday
night. He left Columbus, O., Monday af-
ternoop, and at every stop along the route
was greeted with enthusiasm. He made
brief addresses at many points, but bis first
speech of length was made at Port Huron,
where he arrived Wednesday afternoon.
He was given great ovation on his arrival
there, and escorted by a procession to Pine
Grove, beautiful park in the vicinity,
where he was introduced 10 an immense
crowd of people, and spoke as follows:
"Lddies and Gentlemen: Will you allow
me to keep my cap on? [Voices.-"Of
course" "certainly."l / am afraid, with
this cold north wind, it might do NE some
harm if I went bareheaded, and although l
am perfectly willing to uncover my head be-
fore the people, still do not want to break
down at the beginning of the campaign.
[Voices.-"Keep your cap on."] In the
brief time that shall speak ] will occupy
myself mainly with one question. I shall
do so because it is that in which SO much
interest is now taken, and upon which SO
much is being said by speakers, by writers
and thr0uOh the public press.

A GOOD WORD FOR THE PRESIDENT.


sIt is not necessary for me, before pro-
ceed to that subject, to speak of the Presi-
dent of the United States and his admins
tration more than very few words. I defy
any man who has regard for the truth to
say that Grover Cleveland has not made a
good President of the United States Zap
plause.] A brave, intelligent, level-head-
ed, noble man, he has had clean and up
right and successful administration. [Ap-
plause, and voice, "Hurrah for Cleve-
land."] Four years ago he was elected. In
the canvas that preceded his election his
opponents predicted all manner of evils in
case he should succeed. He did succeed,
and pray, what has become of their predic-
tions Where is the ruin that was to fol-
low the election of Grover Cleveland
Where is the disgrace that was to follow
his election On the contrary, the country
has been more quiet, more peaceable, more
prosperous than it has been for many years
that have gone by. [Applause.] Now, I
know the man; know him we'll; tell you,
my fellow-citizens, that more upright and
wise man I do not believe dwells within the
limits of the United States. Applause.
And he has noble band of counsellors
around him and not least among them is the
distinguished cit.z of your own State, Mr..
Dickinson. [Great applause Cleveland
knows not only how to rule himself within
the limits of the constitution, but he knows
full well how to choose good constitutional
advisers. GApplause.

WHAT JOHN QUINCY ADAMS THOUGHT.
SIN the year 1882 he was chairman of
the House committee on manufactures, and
he said in report made by him in that
year "The doctrine that duties of import
seem to cheaper the price of articles on
which they are levied seems to conflict with
the first dictates of common sense. The
duty constitutes part of the price of the
whole mass of the article in the market. 1t
is substantially paid upon the article of
domestic manufacture as well as upon that
of foreign production. Upon one it ia a
bounty, upon the other burden, and the
repeal of the tax must operate as an equiva-
lent reduction of the price of the article,
whether foreign or domestic. We say so
long as the importation continues the duty
must be paid by the purchaser of the article.
The general and permanent effect must be
to increase the price Of the article to the
extent of additional duty, and it is then
paid by the consumer If it were not so,
if the general effect of adding to the duty
was to reduce the price of the article upon
which it is levied, the converse of the propo-

THE proposed item OF $4,000, to ad-
vertise the Islands, by means of descrip-
tive periodicals, etc, aroused very
noisy discussion Friday afternoon. Rep.
Kauh;, who is usually comparatively
quiet, got reused on the subject and
made himself heard, not only all over
the Government Building, but in the
Survey Department in the new building
His speech never reached a natural end,
and he would doubtless have been apos-
trophizing the walls to this moment if
he had not lost a quorum, which lost
him the floor. The discussion was re-
newed yesterday and the item referred
to a special committee. 1t requires some
courage to declare oneself in favor of
this expenditure, but we believe in it
most heartily nevertheless. Perhaps it
might be we'll to strike out the clause
restricting the expenditure to periodi-
Gals. We believe this suggestion was
made in the House. There is no doubt
that judicious advertising pays. This is
an expenditure more strictly in the pub
lie interests than any of the others of an
analogous character, for no particular in
dividual looks for any immediate adj
vantage from it, while it is hoped that
the whole country will experience great
benefit in the end. There can be then
clearly no question as to the propriety of
the outlay, the question is purely whether
it is judicious or not. We think that
putting the Paradise of the Pacific all
over the world-in hotels and reading
rooms and railway stations-is going to
do more than almost anything else can
to increase the general knowledge of
group of islands of unexampled fertility
and beauty, and to develop an interest
to their merits. We |
might have thousands of tourists here I!
every year. There might be crowded |
hotels on every island in the Kingdom |
hotels on the same scale as the most |
at Newport or Lake George. |
Everyone who is familiar with any of |
the fashionable resorts in the United
States must be aware that they have
little to offer in comparison with many
favored localities on these Islands.
switzerland almost lives on its tourists,
and it's hotels are only patronized about
our months in the year. If we try to
get this travel here, it will come. The
,nly question is as to the ways and
means. They ought to be found, and
We are not without faith that they will

AN ITEM, copied from the San Fran
cisco Examiner, appeared in yesterdays
ADVERTISER, to the effect that " a very
small percentage of the South Sea Is
landers imported for Hawaiian planta-
tons ever survive to return to their
homes" This should have been accom-
panied with contra statement that of
the New Hebrides natives brought here
and remaining in service three years, all
whose term of service has expired have
returned home, with the exception of
about eight or ten per cent, and of these
some preferred to remain here. The
deaths among them have been very few.
OF the Gilbert Islanders-who are less
hardy race-the proportion of deaths has
been larger, not far from twenty per
cent. There are none of the Gilbert
Islanders now on the plantations, nor is
it intended to introduce any more of
them Regarding the statement made
by the Examiner, that "Hawaiian plant
ers have hankerking after South Sea
Island laborers," there is no foundation
for it, as there is not planter who would
not prefer Chinese or Japanese for lab
orers, when they can as now be readily
obtained. Under the late Gibson adj
ministration, no laborers could be relied
on when wanted by the planters, and
the South Sea Islanders introduced were
sent for because no others were obtain
able. Regarding their treatment and
pay, no plantation laborers are better
paid or treated in any other country,
than those on our plantations, as is evil
denced by the large sums yearly remit
ted abroad by Chinese, Portuguese and
Japanese laborers-amOunting to over
one hundred thousand dollars annually.
