Says the San Francisco Bulletin: In
questioning the value of a telegraph
cable from San Francisco to Honolulu
the New York Sun forgets that such a
line would be merely the first link of
a chain binding the South Pacific
groups the Australian Colonies and
the Indies, China and Japan to the
United States, affording cheaper and
quicker communication than Is pos
sible by the Atlantic, European or
Red Sea systems.

INPoRTANT DECISION.


The Supreme Court Of the United
states has decided that q State cannot
be sued In case where the Kansas
prohibition laws were IN question, the
following decision was rendered:
No convention or Legislature has
the right under our form Of govern
ment 10 prohibit any citizen from
manufacturing for his own use OF for
export or storage any article Of food
or drink not endangering OF affecting
the rights Of others.
II such manufacture does prejudice
ally affect the rights and interests Of
the community, il follows that society
has power 10 protect itself BY legisla-
ton against theinjuriOus consequences
Of that business.-ECOm- Herald and

REPRESENTATIVE A[ILLs of Texas,
prospective Chairman Of the Commit
tee OF Ways and Means, astonished
President Cleveland by telling him
that it would be impossible TO pass q
tariff bill based exclusively upon the
Recommendation OF his message. Not
less than fifty Democrats IN the
House had declared themselves OPP
posed 10 any measure that did not
include repeal of the internal reve
nue. tax on tobacco; they would 60
with Randall IN any proposal for
tariff reduction which included that
feature. and il was useless to go
ahead without the cooperation Of
Randall and those who agree with
him. 1t looks as if there were too
many tariff parties in Congress to
resch an agreement on the question
Of reduction during the present ses-
SION.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1888-01-03

IT seems that the status Of the Ha-
wanan treaty has to run the ordeal of
a trial in the United States Supreme
Court. An importer OF San Domingo
sugar has sued an American Collector
OF Customs to recover certain duties
he paid on that article, on the ground
that the treaty between the United
States and San Domingo provides
that each country shall not charge
higher duties on the products of the
other than are imposed on like pro
ducts from any other country. This
provision is claimed to be violated
when Hawaiian sugar IS admitted
free while duty is collected on the
Dominican product. The contention
seems to strike at all reciprocity
treaties containing special privileges,
for all ordinary treaties OF amity and
commerce contain the most favored
nation clause the same as the
Amerieo-Dominicsn one. Now that
the United States has exacted from
Hawaii q premium for the continu-
alton of reciprocal trade, IN the shape
Of the Pearl Harbor naval privileges.
our treaty would appear to be on a
different basis from before, whatever
the San Domingo importer may make
out Of his claim for back duties
4 SALoRsj HOME IS manifest want
at this port. Cheap boarding and
lodging houses in combination are
not IN existence here. owing 10 the
peculiar mode OF life obtaining among
the stationary population Of working
men who do not keep house. When
GOnsuls find distressed sailors on their
hands. they are put TO some trouble
IN finding suitable accommodation
for them. Sailors, and men who work
their passage hither on vessels in
hope Of finding employment here, are
often seen wandering round IN quest
Of comfortable quarters, where they
may sleep and eat under one roof at
moderate charges From the report
Of the Sailors Home Society IN this
paper. it viii be seen that the matter
Is not to be left IN allegiance by that
body. A committee has been ap-
pointed to take it in hand, and. as
the amount now required to make up

AMoNe the causes contributing to
the tempest in the teapot raised
against the Ministry, through the
medium Of the Ba.lstIa just before the
King kicked over the traces, were the
fears OF prosecution entertained by
the whisky s1nugglers whose rascally
deeds We're exposed in the Legisla
ture. This is fact capable of demon
stration TO dot, and it serves 10
show the public part of the motives
instigating the hue and cry Of the
malcontents.

NOTES AND COMMENTS,

TIE Moscow Gazette SAYS The
future policy of France viii decide
whether Germany viii be compelled
10 watch one or both of her from
tiers" The same paper declares that
Russia must always have a strong
fleet on the Pacific Ocean. In that
case other Powers viii see the neces-
Sity of having strong fleets also on
this ocean. Raising supplies for
foreign navies may yet be one of the
biggest Hawaiian industries.

eeive children with the fiction OF
Santa Claus. Thirty-six out Of ninety
i've prominent church people, drawn
ont by circular from the Herald, have
declared in favor of keeping UP the
mystery about the Saint. The rest
gave varying answers, only four being
IN favor of abolishing the deception.
