Circumstances alter cases. In order to bolster
up its argument on the sugar tariff the PRESS
finds itself constrained TO say:
The duty which was paid by the consumers for
In this case the duty was unquestlonably tax
amounted TO about $56.000,U00. At the same
the amount Of duty on the imported sugar, SO the
consumers paid for domestic sugar 81 600, 90
more than it would have cost them il there had
beeu 10 duty on the foreign product.
Thus we see the PRESS now makes two admis
sions which it would not have thought polite tc
make before the recent elections. 1t now admits
two important points which it has heretofore so
stouty denied. FHst that the tariff is tax.
Second, that the price OF domestic commodity of
general consumption is advanced by the amount
of duty on similar imported commodity.
ern Argus.
The above is a fine piece of ignorance
Every protectionist admits and always has
admitted, that the tariff on an article which
could not be produced in this country, or
produced only in small quantities, was tax.
Sugar is one Of those articles And every
protectionist has admitted that the tariff on
sugar was tax and increased the price
Of the small domestic product by its amount.
In the report of the ways and means COM
mittee upon the Mckinley tariff bill occurs
this language:
So large proportion of our sugar is imported
that the production OF sugar does not materially
effect the price, and the duty is therefore tax,
which is ADDED TO the price not only Of the i'm
ported but Of the domestic product.
In his speech to the Home Market Club in
Boston In Maylof the present year the Hon.
Nelson Dineley, Jr., used this language:
The Mills bill imposed duty of SO per cent on
sugar This i did, Notwithstanding the fact that
sugar is an article Of food, ana Notwithstanding,
after more than half ce tury's experience under
protection duties, we produce less sugsr than we
Sid 80 years aga, and tne production Is So small
on sugar a toG.
Here is evidence enough, we think, to con
vince the Argus that the protectonists ad.
mltted before election that the tariff
on sugar was a tax. Now as re-
CARDS the PRESS, which the Argus
says would not have made such an admission
before election, as matter of fact the PRESS
has declared that the duty on sugar was
tax adding so much to the price to the con-
sumner, dozen times within year, and we
challenge the Argus to point ont a line In
this paper which ever intimated anything
else. We cite for the benefit of the Argus
the following extract from an editorial in
the PRESS of July 16 of this year-several
months before election:
The duty on sugar is purely revenue duty. 1t
Is simply added TO the price which the consumer
has TO pay for it. Our importing merchant buys
u OF the Cuban planter, pays the duty on 1t an
then charges the duty to the consumer.
Can the Argus or anybody else conceive
OF clearer, fuller admission of the fact
that the tariff on sugar is tax than this?
Yet the Argus declares that the PRESS has
made an admission since election which It
would not have made before. Watch and see
If the Argus has the fairness to correct its
assertion
The Portland daily press., 1890-11-14

alton is the fact that the House of Represeu-
tatives voted its censure upon him for using
ungentlemanly language to Mr.. Bayne. of
pennsylvania, In debate. Not being very
able In debate Bynum makes up for his da-
nciencies with the usual weapons of the black
guard and whoever is unfortunate enough to
carry TOO many guns for him in debate may
expect TO be accused Of being liar or thief
oynum used his tactics upon Bayne, and the
House passed a resolution directing the
que tKer 10 pronounce upon him the censure
of the House. The speaker did as directed;
and Bynum has since been paraded as 'vic-
tim OF the Speakers tyranny" 1t may be
said OF him that he is fair sample OIL the
large company of alleged miserable victims
of the same "tyrauny." But like the con-
| siderable portion of the human race that
| conform to the Pecksniff type, the apparent
| ly much-abused Bynum is a bully when he
| can be. He has legislative record in
| Speakers chair himself. The Cincinnati
Commercial-Gazetter relates characteristic
performance by Bynum when he was Speak
er Of the Indiana House. The Democratic
| legislature of Indiana had passed what was
| called the metropolitan police bill' for the
| regulation of the police systems of certain
| large cities of Indiana. 1t was measure in
which the Democrats as a party were very
much interested. Governor Porter vetoed
the bill and the Democrats had not the ma
jority to pass 1t over his veto. Ordinarily
when the Governor sends message to either
branch of the Legislature all business is sus-
pended until the message is heard or dis
posed Of In this instance, when w. B. Bob
erts, the Governors private secretary, ap-
peared upon the floor of the House with the
police bill veto and asked recognition, By
mum refused 1t and ordered the business to
proceed. Republican members protested
against such revolutionary action, and then
| and there ensued one of the most sensation.
| al and exciting scenes ever witnessed in the
State-house. Bynum, however. was firm, the
| Democratic members stood by him, the rights
| of the minority and the prerogatve of the
Executive were trampled under foot, Sec
| rotary Roberts retired and the veto of the
| Governor was nullified. This is Bynum,
who is posing as victim of Tyranny" and
| the hater of parliamentary "arbitrariness"
And he is fair sample of the other patriots
in his crowd.

the NEW SAILORS HOME.

EDITOR BULLETIN
There has lately been good deal
of interest shown in different direc.
tons, and by different individuals in
raising money for much needed
Sailors Home in Honolulu. have
been asked about the amount already
raised and still needed, and as to the
relation of the Home to the churches.
| am informed by one of the trustees
that they have on hand and promised,
about $4,000. But for levelling the
ground, which they already own, and
for the building and other necessary
expenses, it is desired to raise $751;
600. This is aside from the furnish
ing of the Home.
AS to its relation to any religious
denomination, it would without
doubt "be worked on secular basis"
The object of those interested in
building this house is to provide II
comfortable and wholesome place
where the sailors, coming to this
port, may find clean bed and good
food for such time as they are on
shore. II would doubtless contain Il
reading-room, and other means OF
entertainment. The management of
the Home would naturally tend to
good morals and decent behavior,
but it would not be under the au-
spices of any religious body, OF con
nected with any church.
The trustees, their terms expiring
at different dates, are: S. M. Damon
B. F. Dillingham;, w. w. Hall, A. S
Cleghorn, II. F. Glade, w. G. Irwin,
G. R. Bishop, w. Babcock, ]. T.

Atherton, A. Fuller, S. N Castle, j
H. Patty, c. M. Cooke, j. r. Walker
S. b. Dole and F. A. Schaefer.
1t is greatly to be desired that
those who are able to give toward.
the building fund for this Home
should contribute, so that the neces
sary amount may be raised and {
Sailors Home be built soon. 1t i.

When the Labor Bill came up in
the House this morning a question
was raised as to the constitutionality
of the Act. 1t was then asked, by
one of the members, whether an
opinion of the Supreme Court would
he likely to aid or reach the case
through an eD parte opinion as to
the legality of deporting an expired
contract laborer? The questioner
further stated that hitherto impor-
tant er parte decisions of the Su-
preme Court have been reversed by
themselves, when all the facts be-
came known. 1t was finally deter
mined that instead of submitting the
two bills before the House that the
main points at issue should be laid
before the Supreme Court for an
opinion thereon.
The great Importance and grave
nature of the question of labor, now
at issue, is attracting much public
attention and it therefore behooves
both Court and Legislature TO calmly
and justly consider the question
from all sides before reaching con-
illusions, which may carry with them
either great good or lasting evil for
Hawaii.

to fight against the Holy Catholic,
Apostolic church, and her members?
eve remember also the position
taken by you to uphold one of your
estimated brethren in vilifying the
late Father Damien, and of which,
a redress, to my knowledge, has not
been seen YETI AS for us we find
our consolation in the Holy Scrip
lures where we see the Son Of God
ill-treated by bigoted Jews, in a
similar manner, and where he pro-
phesies that in future his disciples
shall be treated likewise. Notwith-
standing you boast to know all about
the "sweet and blessed love of the
Lord Jesus" of which we Catholics
"know so little" | think the above
mentioned charges prove very little
love of Jesus or of your neighbor,
but on the contrary prove an abund-
ance Of hatred, jealousy and envy
against the Roman Catholic church
and its members. And when our
Saviour says that "by this all men
shall know that you are my disciples
il you have love one to another, as |
have loved you,' it appears you

The Commissioners declined to
send the lady bugs to Kona, on the
report received of cottony blight
there. Their reason was that some
of the blight would have TO be sent
with them as food on the passage,
which in case of the real pest not
being present in the district would
risk its introduction. The decision
has proved to he wise one, for, by
last mail, it is learned that it is only
tue old blight, not the cottony one,
that has appeared in Kona.

ANSWER TO THE FRIEND.
EDITOR BULLETIN:-

EDITOR BULLETIN
The editor of the Friend has in
his October issue, an editorial, where,
in welcoming the newly arrived pro-
testant Portuguese ministers, he
brings several insulting charges
against Catholics, which cannot let
pass unmentioned.
1t reminds me of the kiss of Judas
when the editor says that this work,
(the perverting of Portuguese) "has
not been undertaken with views hos
tile to the Roman Catholic Church"
Mr.. Friend, in your protestant
enlightenment you discover, don't
know how many "old superstitions"
from which you certainly would like
to emancipate catholics. The prin-
cipal one is nothing less than "crass
idolatry" found not once exception
ally but so common in purely catho-
lie countries"
Is this the reason, why so many
learned and prominent Professionals
in England and in the United States
Gas you admit) adopt the Roman
Catholic religion? Your enlighten-
menthas made marvellous discovery.
Why did you not substaptiate your
charges with some document having
the authority of the Catholic church /?
Perhaps the newly arrived Portu-
guese Ministers, so well versed in
Catholic matters, from their own
past, could easily have furnished
you some. Amongst the millions of
catholic books find only one which
teaches idolatry, Grass or not, and
we plead guilty.
In connection with this comes the
charge of "misguided devotion TO
Mary" by you styled Mariolatry.
This very expression of yours,
proves that notwithstanding your
protestant enlightenment, you are
in total darkness regarding this
point.
No catholic not even the most
ignorant one, makes Deity of the
Blessed Virgin. But We believe GER
tainly that all generations of the
children Of the true church will call
her blessed. Luc. |.
In regard to the future of the
Roman Catholic church, out of which
you would like "the Papacy to melt
away" (how kind you are TO this
church, if you could only kiss her
head Off YOU need not trouble
yourself. 1t needs no reform in its
constitutions, which it received from
Christ himself, and which enables it
~ reform all its members. May il
please you or not, "the gates Of hell
shall not prevail against it,"
Now in freeing the Portuguese
from "superstitions" which exist
