The report contains also a brief ac-
count of the Custom House frauds, with
the present status OF the suits instituted,
and recommendations that the Govern
ment have the privilege of peremptorily
challenging jurors in criminal cases {;
that summary process be provided for
obtaining taxes; and some other minor
matters. The Marshal's report is ap-
pended, and it contains the sug-
gestion that the present liquor law be
amended by closing all saloons at 10
p. M, and that trial be made here OF
the "Anti-Screen law, as it Is called.
The recommendation as to closing sa-
looms at a certain hour is an excellent
one, and should be engrafted on our
present law. It has been extensively
tried in the United States, and has

chapter LXI. of the penal code, L" to pre-
vent married persons from deserving each

tee.
Second reading of the bill to repeal chap.
XXXII., session laws of 1886, relating to
the increase of the internal tax on real and
personal property. And to re-enact the
former law.
Rep. G.. Brown moved the bill be indefin-
itely postponed. The country is not i'll a
condition to have the proposed reduction
made in the revenues. He would be one
of the first to vote for such reduction if
he thought it for the good of the country.
If we reduce the tax, we will have to borrow
more money, which he does not want to
see done. The tax bill sought to be repeal
ed was devise to the new regime from
the previous government, and we must
bear it as best we can until the circumStan-
ces of the country will warrant reduc-
ton.
Noble Smith moved the bill be referred
to the Finance Committee.
Noble Widemann referred to the report
of the Minister of Finance. He thought it
as we'll to indefinitely postpone the bill
now as refer it to the committee.
Noble Young did not think it worth
while to occupy the time of the house by
staving this matte" off by a reference to
committee. The time may come when
this change can be made, but there are too
make it now. He favored indefinite post
IoGement.
Noble hitchcock said that the proposed
reduction would involve a lessening of the
revenue to the amount of 1852 900, and
that would make deficit of $4,000 in
meeting current expenses. He could see
no advantage in referring the bill to com
mittee.
Noble Castle did not think we could af-
ford to do away with any revenue at the
present time. He believed in the policy of
referring measures to committees. The
house has good Finance Committee and
this reference might elicit valuable infor-
nation on the general question of revenue
and expenditure. He supported the mo-
ton to refer.
Noble Waterhouse supported the motion
made by Noble Smith. The citizens of
Honolulu and members constituents want
to get facts and figures to know just how
we stand.
Noble Baldwin could see no benefit likely
to result from reference to the Finance
Committee, as it would not probably be
deemed by the committee an essential part
of their duties to enter into general queS-
tons of revenue. They would be called
only to report on the bill before them He
did not think the country was prepared fl r
this measure at present. He would be

The letter Of Mr. Blaine from Paris
re-aillrming the declarations of the
Florence letter, unqualiiiedlv refusing the
use of his name IA n candidate of the
Republican National Convention, was not
unexpected by many of his friends, while
very large number of Republicans
throughout the country hoped he would
finally yield his refusal of the candidacy
for the sake of the country and in the
interests of the great party of Protection
and thorough Americani=m. 1t certainly
is remarkable example of putting
aside the nearly absolute certainty
OF being elected AS the Chief Executive of
= great and prosperous nation, at an
eventful period of the world. This step
of the great Republican leader is causing
profound regret to millions of his country
men. Many of his devoted friends think
that he has not been wholly wise in his
self-abnegation, while others cherish the
opinion that he has acted from the loftiest
motives, aud that time will vindcate the
thoughtful patriotism of his course. One
thing Is IA nearly certain asany future re-
suit can be calculated upon-that Mr..
Blaine will continue TO be powerful
force In American politics.

We acknowledge with thanks polite invi-
tation to go to Chickering Hall next Tuesday
evening and listen to an address by Mr..
George William Curtis on Civil Service Re-
form.
Mr.. Curtiss Grafton is sure to be scholarly
and well polished production of high senti-
ment and pure motives. delivered with melo-
dious elocution; and yet we must decline the
interest.
Civil Service Reform. in the sense in
which Mr.. Curtis understands it, is dead and
buried. Ii is as dead as either door post or
the great pyramid of Ghizeh. 1t is buried
deep in the depths. 1t has been dead aud
buried so many months that not even as q
funeral GRAFTON or memorial address will Mr..
Curtis's beautiful rhetoric appeal to the
curiosity or interest of survivors.
Civil Service Reform did not die a natural
death, nor was it murdered. It persisted by
lawful violence, upon solemn warrant issued
by the mighty Democracy of the United
States.
1t makes little difference whose stalwart arm
welded the fatal axe and dealt the decapi-
tatng blow. Somebody executed tn.
Democracy's imperious command--that is

REVOLVING AGAINST FREE
TRADE.
Prominent New HampshiTe Democrats
Refuse to Support Clevelands Policy.

concord Despatch to the Boston Journal.
As has been well known for some time the
Democracy of this State are not in accord on
the question of the tariff Not few Demo
Gratis are extensive manufacturers, and have
prospered in business under the laws of
tariff Protection. Since the Democratic
party cane out practically for Free Trade
there has been no little curiosity on the part
of the public to learn what political position
would be taken by members of their party
engaged in certain lines of manufacturing.
Your correspondent has proof which no one
will question that the tariff issue has already
begun to SOW the seeds of discussion in the
Democratic ranks in New Hampshire. This
proof comes from men of the highest
executive and business character. MIR.
Charles A. Busel, of Laconia, wealthy
hosiery manufacturer and q gentleman high
in the councils of the Democratic party. has
stated to your representative that he shall not
vote for the reelection ofCle veland on a plat
form embodying the views Of the Presidents
tariff message and of the Mills bill in Con
gress. Mr.. Busel is member of the Dem
ocra'ic State Committee and one of the Ex-
ecutive Committee of ten. and has long been
regarded as one of the ablest managers in his
party. He is also director of the Boston,
Concord and Montreal Railroad and presi-
dent of the Lake Shore Corporation, which
will soon break ground for line from the
Weirs or TiltOn TO Alton Bay.
Mr.. John T., Charles A. Bushels brother
lifelong Democrat and partner with him
in the hosiery business, will not only refuse
TO support Cleveland for reelection but is
writing and publishing articles advocating
the continuance of the present laws govern
ing the tariff on everything entering into not
only WOODEN but cotton manufacturing. The
detection of such men as the Busiel brothers
will produce a decided sensation in the Dem
ocratic party, and it is very probable that
they will rot be alone among the Democratic
manufacturers in thus State in assuming their
present political position. Personally these
gentlemen are very popular and influential
and are widely known in connection with
their extensive business and political re citations.
