granted.
The bills rendered by Mr.. Forsyth were

rfor. To the question care these bills, II
so approved, a just claim upon this Gov

questions as to any fact but as to the legal
or moral effect of certain ascertained facts,
which the honorable Noble is as well, If
not better able to answer than L am.
If may be allowed to give my opinion
however, it is that such an acknowledge
ment binds the Government in so far as 1T
is possible for Minister to bind the Gov
eminent without the consent OF the
Legislature, and no further. Every finan-
ciaI obligation sought to be incurred by a
Minister without the authority of the Leg
islature is subject to the ratification OF the
Legislature.
PROFESSIONALLY Minister has no right
to pay any claim for which no provision
has been made by the Legislature from any
appropriation made for another purpose.

THE DAILY
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1888.

In THE heat aroused by the debate on
the Oahu Railway Bill on Friday last, a
short editorial note was written upon
the position taken by Hon. w. 0. Smith;
one of the Mobiles from Hawaii and
others, upon the proposed exemption
from taxes of the railway. Notes 50
written, if not revised and reconsidered
thereafter, are very apt to contain
structures and injustice never intended.
This is the case with the note referred to
and the 2. G.. ADVERTISER now desires
to express it's sincere regret for this note
and to withdraw the unfair and unjust
aspersiOns contained therein. OF course,
this paper does not always agree with
the honorable gentlemen, but it does
recognize the fact that both Mobiles
Smith and Hitchcock and others who
opposed the exemption from taxes of the
railway are most valuable and useful
members of the Legislature. Not only
have they originated and assisted very
useful measures, but their wise, and con-
sentative course has materially assisted
to check hasty legislation. The ADvER-
T1sER says this frankly and with pleas

Departure of the Dolphin.

The steamer J. A Cummins left the
wharf at ten minutes to twelve for the
purpose of accompanying the U. S. F. S
Dolphin, with Rear Admiral Kimberly
on board, out to sea. The following gen,
tlemen were on board the convoy boat
A. Widemann, Messrs. J. H. Patty, J
Bidwell, F. A Schaefer, J. G. Spencer
and son, r. w. Lame, F. NJ. Hatch, and
Captains J. Ross, Underwood and A.
McGregor. Prof H. Berger and his
boys furnished the music
The J. A Cummins steamed to the
Dolphin and after playing while there
steamed out to meet the S. S. Alameda,
which was coming in the harbor. On
the way out, His Majesty the King en-
barked on the Cummins from his boat.
The Alameda was met a little beyond
the lighthouse, and the bands fine
music was played, to the great delight of
the Alameda passengers. After passing
the Alameda, the J. A. Cummins went
a little further out, then turned back and
was steered again for the Alameda,
where several more sweet selections
were rendered, which, in His Majesty's
opinion, formed a very rich treat to the
Alameda's passengers.
1t was not till half-past one p. m. that
the Dolphin, bearing Rear Admiral Kim
berly's flag, got under weigh The
Cummins only accompanied her as far
as the lighthouse, and after the ex-
change of many farewells with the Ad-
miral and officers, the party of escort
steamed for the wharf. While the Dol
phin was steaming out the passage at a
very good speed, signal flags were
hoisted on the masts by the q. S. S.
Vandalia and Fl. B. M. S. Hyacinth,
presumably tokens of farewell, the Dol
phin responding in like manner.

cool the ardor of people who would like
to fight Germany alone, but not Ger
many, Austria and Italy, combined.
Whatever may have been the particular
object of this meeting, no doubt the ulti-
mate object and probable result will be
to keep Europe at peace, even if it be an
armed peace. Bismarck does not want
war and his head is long and cool
enough to avert one. 1t is to be hoped,
in the interests of peace and humanity,
that he may long continue to rule Ger
many.
The United States are in the quad
rennial throes of Presidential election.
One is tempted to believe that most OF
the political excitement there is created,
fostered and kept alive for the susten-
ance and support of the vast army of
blood sucking politicians whose exis-
tence is derived from the election ex-
elements continually going on in one
place or another. The country has too
much politics.

A Necessary Hint.

The newspaper business has not yet
become lucrative enough to afford tele-
phone boy in this Office. Hence, when
people ring our number they would save
great deal of annoyance by waiting at
the instrument for the response. 1t is
very vexlng to busy desk worker to
answer a telephone call over and over
again, then return without result to work
only to be rung up again before q fresh
dip of ink can be used. To state that
this sort of thing has become frequent is
the only apology necessary for this hint
to all who are unintentionally discour-
teous in the manner stated.

THE foreign news by the steamer on
Saturday is interesting and in some re-
spects of Importance to us. The offer
of $4,000 per annum by the United
States towards the support of the Aus
tralian mail service has been accepted
by the Government of New Zealand and
New South Wales, both of which will
continue their subsidies for another
year. We are therefore sure for year
from next November that the efficient
and excellent service performed by the
Oceanic S. S. Company wilFcontinue.
The terrible disaster at the Golden
Gate, whereby the City of Chester was
cut down and sunk in few minutes bv
3 collision with the Oceanic, in a dense
fog, causes us all to rejoice anew that
our seas are free from fogs, and that up
to the present time no terrible marine
disaster has darkened our annals.
The meeting of Prince Bismarck and
Count Crispi, the Italian premier, has
excited considerable comment in the
European papers, chiefly in the French
press. The rumor that Bismarck said
to the Italian chief that their armies
might soon be called into the field, has
caused great uneasiness in France. In
all probability the remark never was
made, or, If it was, good care was taken
to have it reported in France in order to

THE Bulletin, while no doubt doing it's
best, yet shows singular lack of appre-
cation of the difference existing between
yesterday and to-day. AS if the ire
sponsible one-man power of years past
were simply matter of degree and not
a Totally different government from that
of cabinet directly responsible and ac-
countable to the Legislature. When, in
the history of Hawaii, would the King
be removed if he did not govern in ac-
cordance with constitutional principles?
Perhaps the Bulletin would have it's
readers believe that no power can get rid
of the Cabinet. 1t fails to state the
principle that on a vote of want of conf
dence they would be ousted. The inten-
ton of the Constitution is to secure such
a government as England enjoys: the
government of the people through Par
lament, in place of rule by an irresPon-
sible person called King, Emperor, Gar,
Sultan, or any other term. England
acquired her liberty through years of
blood shed, centuries of patient advance
with many reverses. It remains to be
seen whether we have gained ours by a
single stroke, or whether, not being
worthy, we shall fail to hold what we

Terrific Gas Explosion.

FINDLAY, July 12.-At the little vii:
lage Of Welkerr "a few miles south OF
this city, terrible explosion of gas,
the result of thoughtlessness, occurred
yesterday. C.S. McKim, Of Cleveland,
financially interested in the well recent
ly drilled by 8. D. Houpt, was showing
q party of friends about the place.
In the derrick house he struck q
match to light his cigar, when the es-
Gaping gas ignited and the explosion
followed. Mr.. McKim was badly
burned about his hands, face and up
per portion of his body. One OF the
Cleveland visitors was thrown against
the machinery, severely bruised and
burned. The other gentlemen had
whiskers and clothing seorched, but es-
caped injury. The wounded men were
taken to Cygnet. The buildings were
entirely destroyed. The force OF the
explosion shattered the casing to the
we'll, and the gas rushed forth In a
fame SO feet high, the roar Of which
can be heard two miles. The heat Is so
intense that no one can get near tt
The present loss is about 81 900, and II
is said 1t will take another thousand to
extinguish the flames, it being neces-
sary to reach the well by tunneling.

of The DAILY NEWS. The large addition to its
present million-a-week circulation, which will
surely come with its reduction to one cent a day,
will fully compensate for the reduced profit at
which each paper is sold. All this concerns the
reader only as assuring him that The DAILY News
can reduce its price and at the same time maintain
it's high character the foremost newspaper of the
Northwest-that million-a-week circulation
makes the otherwise impossible entirely possible.
The present is peculiarly the time to inaugu-
rate this popular departure in American jour
nalsm. The approaching Presidential election
widens immeasurably the field and opportunity
for THE DAILY NEWS as an independent, impartial,
fearless newspaper-one free from all the entangle-
ments of mere partisan allegiance. The demand
is more and more for newspaper which shall
give all the political news free from partisan color
ing and which shall tell the absolute unvarnished
truth about things regardless ofits effect upon the
fortunes of this or that political party candidate
This demand The DAILY News aims to meet, and
at its reduced price it combines all the elements
which should make it literally everybody's paper.
To the thousands of new readers whose atten-
ton is now for the first time directed to THE DAILY
News it is proper to say that they will find it
complete in all the essentials of the best Ameri-
can journalism of to-day. It's quality as a neaos-
paper proper best indicated in the fact that it is
the only low-prced paper in Chicago or the
Northwest, which is member of the "Asso-
ciated Press" The other Associated Press"
papers in Chicago, the Tribune, the Times and
Inter- Ocean all cost three cents. THE CHICAGO
DAILY News prints all the nez0s and sells it for
one cent a day. Sold by all news dealers. Mailed

IT is fitting that the pioneer Of low-priced
journalism in the West should lead in placing the
American newspaper of to-day upon the basis of
the lowest unit of American coinage Twelve
years ago that unit was the nickel in Chicago and
throughout the Northwest. The founding of THE
DAILY News at lower price was regarded by the
journalistic profession as inviting certain failure.
But they were wrong. To-day there is not a
nickel paper in Chicago, and the circulation of
THE DAILY News averages, as shown by its pub
lished sworn statements, $4,000 copies day
with single exception the largest daily circula-
ton in America, and greater than the circula-
tons of all other Chicago dailies confined.
THE DAILY News has prospered beyond the
most sanguine hopes of its founders For this it
has more than once made its grateful acknowledge
ments to an apprecative public. 1t believes, how
ever, that the time has now come when, acting
entirely within the limits of a wise commercial
progression, it can give its thanks more practical
expression. 1t proposes henceforth to "divide
as to its friends-and to multiply as to its circula-
ton. To-day it reduces its price to One CENT
and expects to double its circulation.
And anticipating the questionings of the
doubtful let it be briefly said that the thing can be
d0ne. The DAILY NEws-all that it has been in
the past as well as all that is rightly expected oi
it in the future as leader in progressive Ameri-
can journalism-can be produced and sold for
one cent a day, and this by reason of those CON-
mon principles of trade which make possible
lower prices just in proportion as the aggregate
volume of sales increases. The DAILY News now
sells ovey million papers zUeeh, as shown by its
published sworn statements of circulation, and il
can afford to sell at smaller profit per paper than
other Chicago dailies, no one Of which has as
much as one-third the average daily circulation

A correspondent assures an American
newspaper that James G. Blaine wept
at the tomb of Sir Walter Scott. It
seems to be incumbent upon such of
our countrymen as travel in the Old
World to let their tears fall upon the
graves of great men. "Mark Twain"
wept at the resting-place Of Adam, and
more recently Ignatius Donnelly be-
dewed the grave of Shakespeare with
enigmatical tears. Surely "the desd but
sceptered sovereigns who still rule our
spirits from their urns" seem to be es-
pecially potent so far as lachrymose
Americans are concerned.
