AMERICAN LABOR AND AMER
ICAN HOMES.


The Republican STANDARD Bearer Speak
10 the People of the Country.
A delegation OF Republicans from Cham
paign, Illinois, paid their respects to Gen.
Harrison, at his home in Indianapolis. on
the 24th inst. In respOne to the speech of
Mr.. L. M. Wright, for the delegation,
Gen. Harrison responded in the following
sentences which ought to be carried on the
sleeve and engraven on the mind of every
citizen of the Republic
d" on come as citizens of an adjoining
State TO manifest, your Spokesman has said.
some personal respect for me, but much
more, think, your interest i'll the pend
ing contention of principles before the
people of the United States. 1t is forum
ate you are allowed not only to express
your interest by such popular gatherings as
these. but you will be called upon individ
ually, after the debate is over, to settle this
contention by your ballots.
- An American political canvass, when
we look through the noise and tnsel that
accompany it. presents scene of profound
interest to the student of government The
theory upon which our government is
built is that every qualified elector shall
have an equal influence at the ballot box
with every other. Our constitutions do
not recognize fractional votes, they do not
recognize The right of one man TO count
one and a half in the determination OF
public questions. 1t is wisely provided
that whatever differences may exist in j, =
telligence, in ealth or in any other re-
spect, at the ballot box there shall be alb
sOute equality.
q No interest can be truly subseryed,
whether local or general, by any invasion
of this great principle. The wise work of
our fathers in constructing this govern
ment will stand all tests OF internal dis
sensions and revolution, ard all tests of
external assault, if we can only preserve ID
pure free ballot. (Cheers.l Every citizen
who Is patriot ought to lend his influence
to that end by promoting necessary re-
forms in our election laws, and watching
supervisor of the processes of our popu
lar elections. We ought to elevate in
thought and practice the free suffrage that
we eli joy.
AS long as it shall be held by our PEG
pie to be he jewel above price, as hong as
each for himself shall claim its free exer-
else and shall generously and manfuEy in
sist upon an equally free exercise of it by
every other man, our government will be
preserved. our development will not find
its climax until the purpose of God in es-
tahlishing this government shall have
spread through the world governments of
the people. by the people and for the PEG
pl9.'" prolonged cheers.)

effected, and by what safeguards they
sought to provide reasonable security for
the future need not be here recounted.
These things are all matters OF recent
history and should be abundantly famil-
lar to our readers. Equally familiar are
the events Immediately following the
revolution; the formation Of a party
organization on the basis OF approval OF
the action OF the mass meeting OF the
Both of June, and agreement TO support
the new order OF things; the nominating
convention of 1887, the first gathering OF
the kind ever held in the Kingdom; the
preparation for the special election, and
the overwhelming victory at the polls.
In the year and more which has elapsed
since that time good many important
things have happened in the sphere OF
Hawaiian politics. Some mistakes that
were made in the course OF the revOlu-
tionary movement, honestly no doubt,
and naturally enough too under the cir
cumstances, but mistakes all the same,
have forced themselves upon our atten-
ton in the production OF unexpected and
very unpleasant results. Some matters
which we fiattered ourselves were settled
have evidently got to be settled over
again. Some men who were commended
to us as staunch and true have forfeited
their pledges and previously disappointed
their friends. Again, it cannot be de-
I IL l. 1. I
in administrative matters, and some
apparently reasonable expectations have
failed to be realized. At the same time
it must be confessed by every fair
minded and impartial observer that these
failures and disappointments-th spots
on our political sun and flies in the re-
form ointment-are altogether excep-
tional, and do not alter the broad fact
that the reform administration has been,
in the main, a success, and the record OF
the party one, upon the whole, OF which
its honest members may well be proud.
If there is any one fact which the history
OF the past year has demonstrated more
clearly than any other; if there is any
lesson which our experience teaches in
unmistakable terms, it is that the exist
ence and supremacy of the Reform party, |
or of some party pledged and devoted to
the principles and ideas on which that
was founded and assumed |
the control of public affairs, is essential |
to the well-being OF the country and even
to its continued existence as an indepen- |
dent nationality What measures are /
to consolidate and strengthen
the party, to place it on the high level |
where it properly belongs, to command |
the confidence and support of the best |
elements in our heterogeneous popula-
ton, and give it that success which its
character and the public welfare alike |
demand will be considered hereafter.

The Chinese Question.

Mr.. EDITOR: The Chinese question
continues to exercise all members of the
community. We have those for and
against. The whole matter, however,
can be put in nutshell. Strip the ar
gument down to its very root and see
where we stand. That the Chinaman
has vices is true. So has the Hawaiian
and the European and the American.
That is not, then, the true cause of OBJ
lection to the Chinaman in this commun-
ity, or in California, or in Australia.
That he is keen trader is also true, but
so is the American, so is the Jew, so is
the Englishman and above all is the
Greek. The whole thing stripped of it's
verbiage is that the Chinaman can live
on what an Hawaiian, a European or an
American would starve. None of these
mentioned can compete with a China
man in this score in the faintest degree.
The objection raised is, therefore, that
the Chinaman fairly undereats his COM
petitOr of every nationality.
1t is a case of self preservation. It may
be granted that the Chinaman is indus
his taxes, it may be granted that he de-
velops lands which no one but himself
can make any use of. 1t may even be
granted that his immortality is exagger-
ated, and we know that he is very i'm
moral that his illicit dealings in LIQUOR
are not so black as they are painted, and
even they are black enough; that his
opium habit is very mild offense, and
he has managed to instill a taste for it
into the Hawaiians, whose King was
only too ready to gobble ST. 900 to de-
bauch them further. All this NAV be
granted, may be lightened, may be ex-
planned away, and still the tact remains.
Neither the Hawaiian nor the white man
in these Islands can stand chance of
earning a living against a Chinaman.
The cheap living man is bound to live in
the end. Therefore the question lies,
are we going to help ourselves or are we
going to allow ourselves to be eaten up.
There is no argument on the point. Self
preservation is the first law of Nature
and every other law has time and again
given way to it. We here are only an in
finitesimal fraction of the worlds popu-
lation, but the question presses upon us
the more deeply. If great states and
countries feel the pressure, how much
more shall We. V.

THE street railway is making rapid
progress on King street. The rails are
now laid almost to the Waikiki road in
Pawaa. A branch line will be laid to
Punahou at once, and within a short
time cars will run to the gate at the Col
lege. Delay is caused by the inability of
the company to cart stone rapidly enough
to fill between the rails and outside as
required by law. The work is being well
done and we shall have a street railway
till the end of time apparently, or till we
are blown up by some great eruption or
convulsion whereby we go to the bottom
of the ocean.
