A Wild Wall.

The Tobacco Journal Is trade paper
published by wild man who fnds his
profit in extravagant benediction and
malediction and who always has some
thing that he seeks to boom or burst on
Z high pressure. Just now II Is our con.
Temporary, the Neio Era, that has ex.
cited his ire by reprinting the wonder
ful figures Of the tobacco and cigar
business Of this, the Ninth revenue col
lection district, in which there.are over
nineteen hundred cigar factories, pro-
ducing about five hundred million cigars
annually ; over seventy Of these, mostly
In Lancaster county, making from a
million to eight million each. Our con-
temporary very properly thought that
. district with 50 large an indus
try, and producing some three million
dollars from its soil in the shape of leaf
tobacco, ought to be heard in Congress
when it demanded heavy import
tax upon the imported Sumatra tobacco
cultivated by coolie labor.
Whereupon the wild Tobacco Journal
man declares that the cigarmakers of the
Ninth Pennsylvania district "earn less
than the Asiatic coolie, who is paraded
20 earn only l6 cents a day." and that
the :" 80 clear Pennsylvania cigars are
turned out by as withered n lot of hui
manity rs exists anywhere on the globe
a cOolie leads the life of lord in COM
: parison." And therefore the wild man
tells us that If the cigars of this district
were wrapped with Sumatra instead of
Pennsylvania leaf they would bring
twenty-five instead of nine dollars per
thousand, and enable the cigarmaker to
make good wages by his industry.
or course there is no use in arguing
with one who is 40 wild AS to write such
trash. We simply quote it to show
what great nonsense some people will
talk while pretending they are wise.
The suggestion that all that Pennsylva.
MIA cigarmakers need to put piano in
every workroom and provide beer for
beverage instead of the muddy Genes
toga, is the destruction of the tobacco
& crop about them, upon which their in.

In 1874 the pension list amounted to a
little over twenty nine millions; in 1889 the
total for pensions was over eighty sew en-
aud q half millions, or moro than three
times the pension list of 1874. This branch
OF government expenses was tripled In
fiftesn years. 1t Is now reported that the
pension bill just passed has been care
fully figured over by the officials of the
pension bureau and the probable expendi-
ture under II placed at sixty millions, not
withstanding that its advocates In Senate
and House estimated its cost at forty mil
lions. 1t may be that the pension list for
1891 will reach the enormous sum of two
hundred millions of dollars, even II there is
no further legislation on the subject than
the bill alluded to. That amount of money
judiciously applied might accomplish
wonders. but II would be better to lessen
the taxation and leave most of 1t with tho
people from whom II must be collected.

ing the grand stands with the car
riage stands, and persons wishing |
to pass from one to the other
would have to leave the grounds
altogether and enter them again by
a separate gate. This will be any
thing but gratifying to the groups
of riders and drivers who find the
chief attractlveness of the game to
consist in tho opportunities which it
offers of driving and riding to and
fro, conversing with friends, COM
pairing notes, gossiping and flirting.
Our ball games at present are unmis-
takeably one of Honolulu's princi-
pal social occasions. They are the
fashion. The section of the public,
and it is very large one, which
attends the game in order to get
the benefit of it's social opportuni-
ties, must be conciliated, or the new
arrangement will be handicapped
at the start.
5. The fact that large number
of those persons who now attend
and, enjoy the games most keenly
will be excluded from them by
even a very moderate entrance
fee, IS Enthusiastically drawback to
the present scheme. Honolulu has
exceedingly little to offer in the
way of popular amusements, and it
will be very unfortunate if we do
anything to lessen instead of to in
crease these opportunities. The
small boy is frequently nuisance,
but his enjoyment of baseball is
very deep and sincere, and his fate,
banished to a knot hole, is not
without an element of tragedy.
How far the drawbacks to which
we have referred are capable OF be-
ing avoided, it is difficult to say.
Some of them may perhaps be dis
posed of. The subject has already
received very careful attention
from it's promoters, and it is with
difidence that we made any sug-
gestions in regard to it. The strong
argument for putting the plan
through is that it will tend to keep
up the organization and enthusiasm
of our players, and thus benefit the
public, and that it will make it pos
sible to secure professional mines to
play with our local teams.

the recent campaign at the charge
made that the Nationals were max
ing political capital out of the strict
segregation policy of the existing
administration, and werespromising
the natives that if they were sue
cessful the lepers would be turned
loose again.
The charge was denied, and the
reply was made that nothing of the
kind had been or would be done.
And now comes Mr.. Bush-the
irrepressible-who with R. W. Will
cox forms the backbone of the Ma
tional party, and who with the assist
ance of that gentleman will dictate
it's policy whether the others like it
or not-and on the public platform
at a meeting of the electors of Koo-
lau, as candidate for election on
the National ticket, formally makes
a declaration of principles which he
solemnly promises to do his best to
make law, if elected.
Principle number seven is that he
will endeavor ITO turn loose all
lepers at Kalawao and Kalaupapa,
except those who prefer to remain
there"
| Principle number eight is that he
will endeavor "To turn out the pre-
sent Board of Health, the correct
name of which is the Board oil
Death"
The Crowley-Wilcox method Of
evading the consequences of injudi
cious speeches by lying out of it
will not answer in this case, because
Mr.. Bush has first revised anG
pruned his declaration and pub
lished it in his own paper.
Here is q clear cut issue. The
National party formally, definitely
and publicly, through one Of it,
leading representatives, places itsel
on record as being in favor of GUST
ing the Board of Health for ne
other reason than that it has faith
fully executed the segregation law
} and in cold blood proposes to turr
1900 lepers loose on this commun
ity, and it asks for votes to carry
this policy into execution.
Is it possible that all of the elect
ed Representatives of that party
are SO tied up in the party leading
strings that they have not the in
dependence to declare themselves
; opposed to this fiendish proposition

BASEBALL.

The project to estab lish an incor-
rorated ball ASSOCIATION is we'll
underway, and perhaps too far ad-
vanced to make any changes Of
plan feasible. Many of the COM
munity feel, however, that the plan
in it's present form has many serl-
Gus drawbacks and disadvantages.
1t is with no intention of throwing
cold water upon the present scheme
that we refer to these disadvan-
tages, but merely in the hope that
some arrangement may still be
made by which some of these draw
backs at any rate, may be obviated.
l. The ten-foot board fence which
the promoters have voted to erect
may be necessary, but it will be
unspeakably hideous, and will
utterly deface part of the town
which is continually growing more
attractive. Everyone who has seen
American city ball grounds knows
how unsightly they are, constitut.
ing, perhaps, the ugliest object in
an already ugly city.
2. The external unsightliness of
q ten.foot fence will be fully
matched by it's appearance from
within. Our present ball ground,
for beauty and attractiveness is
probably not surpassed by any
thing Of the sort In the world. The
grounds present smooth green
turf surrounded by lovely trees and
exquisite mountain views, and our
Saturday afternoon ball games pre-
sent a spectacle equally attractive
and unique. It is no exaggeration
to say that the physical attractive
ness of this scene contributes con-
siderable element to the present
popularity of the amusement.
3. A ten-foct fence will be very
apt to shut off the breeze, which at
present does so much to modify the
heat and make the position of
spectators an enjoyable one. If it
does have that effect in any appre-
cable degree it may be relied on to
prevent the attendance of large
number of persons who now make
a regular practice of seeing the
games Only the inveterate base
ball enthusiast can find any pleas
ure in spending two hours in the
sun untempered by wind or shade,
watching game of baseball.
4. The absence of q carriage
drive allowing carriages and horse
back riders to make the circuit of
the ground is sure to prove very
serious drawback, and to invite the
most unfavorable comparison with
the grounds now in use. The pre-
sent plans of the committee do not
contemplate any driveway connect
