TARIFF MATTERS.

In the proposed action of the
American Congress with regard TO
the tariff, this country is simply con
fronted with the contingency which
the present ministry long ago fore
saw and endeavored to prepare for.
1t required no extraordinary fore
sight on the part of the Cabinet or
any one else to anticipate such
action on the part of the American
Government as is now threatened.
1t is wonderful how easily the com
munity has fallen into the attitude
OF assuming that the Reciprocity
treaty and the sugar tariff are DIS fixed
and immovable as if they were laws
of nature, or immediate DEGREES of
Providence. 1t is notorious that the
House of Representatives has been
continually hostile to our treaty. It
is no less notorious that agitation
for reduction of the duty on sugar
has steadily increased, with an in
creasing prospect of success. The
removal of the sugar duty, with
a bounty to home production has
from an American point of view, two
arguments in It's favor The first is
that it is in harmony with the protec-
tive policy of the United States
The second is that it would affect a
much desired reduction Of the rev.
enue.
OF course it would be hasty to as
sumo that the proposed legislation
will be passed during the present
session. Least of all should we as
sumo that this is a time for despon-
dency. 1t is however a time for
earnest thought and prompt action.
Under the present aspect Of
affairs, it is pertinent to recall TO
the short public memory just what
the Cabinet proposed, and we accord
ingly reprint the following extract
from Article III Of the original draft
of the proposed treaty:
at is agreed that whenever the Con-
gress of the United States of America
and the Legislature of the Hawaiian
Islands shall have passed the necessary
laws providing therefor. all articles, the
growth and produce and manufacture of
the Hawaiian Islands, shall be admitted
into the ports of the United States free
of duty, and in consideration thereof and
as an equivalent therefor, all articles the
growth, produce or manufacture of the
United States of America shall be adj
mitted into the ports of the Hawaiian
Islands free of duty, and all articles thus
admitted in the ports of either country,
free of duty, shall be treated in respect
of bounties, exemptions or immunities
and all other respects precisely the same
as if OF the growth, produce or manuiac-
ture of the country into whose ports they
are introduced "
1t appears from the above citation
that the Cabinet had, as already
stated, endeavored to meet and pro
vide for the very situation which has

The quotations in the rice market in
San Francisco, March 9TH, were as fol-
lows;
There is firm tone to the market for
Hawaiian rice, stocks in first hands be-
ing temporarily exhausted. The w. H.
Dimond is now due from the islands
with about , 200 bags which will relieve
present scarcity. Quotations in large
lots are nominally 5@518 C., but we learn
OF sales to arrive at Sc. regular terms. 1t
is reported that some eight or ten car
loads OF Louisiana rice are en- route to
this market.
Mixed rice is quiet and easy, the pre-
sent range of importers quotations being
$455@4 so per double mat For No.
and extra No. the inquiry Is only mod
crate for first hand parcels No. l. is
quoted in large lots at $5.l0@5.2O, and
extra No at $5.40@5,G0 per double
mat.

The statement in yesterdays AID
yERTIsER that the committee on
Ways and Means IN the lower house
of Congress had unanimously de-
cided to recommend the abolition of
the duty on all sugars was based on
information received in San Fran
cisco from member of Congress.
The statement should have referred
only to raw sugars, and should not
have included refined sugars, the
duty on which it was decided in
committee to retain. This action Of
course is not final, and even if it
should be adopted by the lower
house, would probably be changed
by the Senate to lower rate than
it now is. The fact, however, that
the most important committee in
Congress should have recommended
such step indicates what the public
sentiment IS regarding the sugar
duties.
