calculated, we think, to give general
satisfaction. Whatever differences
of opinion may exist as to the merits
and claims of particular individuals.
it must be admitted that all the gen
tlemen selected have previously
shown marked ability in one or more
departments of active life. There
cannot be said to be weak one
among them. The indications ali
point to an energetic, practical and
business-like administration of na-
tional affairs.
That the attitude of the Great Re
public towards Hawaii will be char
acterized by the same friendliness
and iberality as heretofore, cannot
be doubted. Fortunate is it indeed.
that our nearest neighbor combines
with her vast resources. her brave
and enterprising population and her
almost unbounded capacity for ez-
tension and absorption, no lust of
but is actuated rather by
the spirit Of justice and magnanim-
ity towards smaller and weaker
States.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1889-03-26

States has been quadrupled since
1865, though it is still trifing in
comparison with the total foreign
commerce Of those colonies: but it
has grown to what it is without en-
couragement, and in spite of obsta
cles and disadvantages, and slight
favoring circumstances might open
up for us large possibilities in our
relations with young English-speak-
ing peoples whose foreign commerce
already exceeds $500,000,000 per
year. The total tonnage entered
and cleared at New Zealand ports in
1886, exclusive of coasters, was 1882
700, of which a considerable part was
by sail with Europe. It might very
well happen that part, at least, Of
this European trade with New Zea-
land will choose the Nicaragua route,
not so much for the distance saved
over Cape Horn as for more favora
bic weather, winds and currents to
be met with in the latitude of the
canal.
The stimulus which American do
mestic and nearby foreign com
merce will receive from the safe and
sure progress Of an nter-oceanic
canal toward completion, the natural
increase, in six years, of all the
classes of trade within the zone of |
attraction of the canal, and the fair
probability Of additions from the
European traffic by sail with Japan,
New Zealand, FIJI and the South
Pacific groups, should render it safe
to predict total tonnage of six to
six and half millions for the Near
aqua Canal in 1894.

THE HUMILIATION OF THE "TIMEs !"

Never dld great public journal
sustain a more crushing AID humili-
atlng defeat than has just been suf-
fered by the London Times. Never
was prominent public man called
upon to vindicate himself from baser
charges, and never was a vindica-
ton more complete, or achieved
under more impressive and dram
attic conditions, than in the case of
Mr.. Parnell. The field on which
the battle was fought was broad and
public, the combatants were promi-
nent and important in themselves.
and still more Sc in view of what
they represented, and the interested
spectators embraced the English
speaking people of the whol5 world.
Every resource of intellectual
ability, and legal learning and expe-
rience, stimulated by knowledge
of the important and far reaching
consequences to accrue from the re-
suit Of the trial, and backed by
practically unlimited pecuniary re-
sources, was brought to bear on both
sides. Day after day and week
after week the investigation dragged
its slow length along, until sud
denly, and almost without note of
warning, the bottom dropped com
pietely out, and the case of the
Times against Parnell collapsed as
utterly as soap bubble that had
been stepped on by an elephant.
For the benefit of those of our
readers who do not keep the run of |
foreign affairs, we will briefly recall |
The circumstances leading up to the |
trial. Some months ago the Lon
Ion Times commenced the pu5l1ca-
ion of series of articles under the
leadlng of "Parnellism and Crime"
These articles were ably written, |
7ery bitter, and calculated, if they
'ould be justified by facts, to fatally
iamage MIR. Parnell as well as his
political associates and allies and in
definitely postpone the granting of !

TIE NEW ADMINISTRATION.

The American papers received by
1he Mariposa are largely filled with
accounts Of the incoming of the new
administration. The inaugural cere-
monies, the Presidents address,
biographical sketches of the new
Cabinet historical "reminiscences of
former inaugurations, and matter of
al kinds pertinent to the occasion
are given with an accuracy and full
ness which testiiies at once to the
enterprising character of modern
Journalism, and the interest of the
American people IN all that pertains
10 the government Of their country.
President Harrison comes into
power under very favorable condi-
Gons, both personal and political.
HIS general ability Is universally
admitted. his personal character is
unimpeached, his knowledge of
public affairs Is large and varied, he
has the entire confidence Of his own
party. and the respect Of his poll
acal opponents. He has never been
identified with any particular fac
non. and owing his elevation to no
clique OF combination, has no old
gTDdges 10 pay of, and no under
hand services TO reward.
The public treasury is overflow
Ing. the national credit is the high |
est possible, the country is rapidly /
increasing in population and mate |
RAJ resources, and the general pnblic |
sentiment buoyant and hopeful.
The rapid opening up of new terri |
tory, the wide expansion of the
area, creating diversity of
local conditions, and consequent con-
Hicting interests, has not, as many
feared, resulted in weakening the
sentiment of nationality and loyalty
70 the federal authority. On the
contrary, the national sentiment
never seemed more pronounced, and
devotion to the American Union
more clearly manifest than at the
present time.
The composition of the Cabinet is
