in which, as they apprehend, they
are stronger than their opponents.
Ii the present contest were really
to be fought exclusively on the
tariff issue, victory of Campbell
over Mckinley in Ohio would mean
that Mr.. Cleveland was to be the
next president of the United States.
But the Democrats of Ohio, and of
the West generally, have come out
in favor of the free coinage of sill
yer, and their opponents are not
slow to take advantage of the fact.
In New York, the Republicans
have nominated a strong ticket.
State issues there will play lead
ing part. The Mugwumps are not
likely to assist the Democrats since
q Democratic victory in New York
will simply fortify the Tammany
ring.
Whatever the results, they will
be awaited with eagerness here
Our own fortunes will not remain
unaffected by the issue.

APPROACHING ELECTIONS IN THE
UNITED STATES.

The steamer which is due to-
morrow from the Coast will Just
fail to bring the news of the cleo
tions in New York and OHIO.
While state elections are now being
held throughout the Union, the
greatest interest will center in
those in the two States named.
The period of politics without issues
has happily passed away in the
United States for the time being, if
not for ever, and there is plenty of
important matter now to divide
parties. Unfortunately the issues
are not SO sharply marked as in
the general election of 1890.
The battle was fought then
upon the tariff, but the Repub
Iicans are now anxious to shift dis
cussion to the Silver Question:

AN EVENING WITH SHU-
BERT.
Delightful Musicale at Puuahou.

Delightful Musicale at Puuahou.
1t is not often that Honolulu
audience is favored with a purely
classical musical entertainment. The
parlors of Oahu College, yesterday
evening, were most exquisitely de-
corated with flowers, vines, and
palms. On the wall was tastefully
hung the Hawaiian flag, which fiut-
tered in the breeze from the College
tower during the daytime. People
passing by wondered in whose honor
the flag was flying. The fact was,
no one outside of the College knew
that it was in honor of Miss Louise
Dale's birthday. During the day her
numerous friends inundated her
with flowers. In the evening, this
talented young lady entertained a
select company of invited guests
with some of Shubert's leading com
positions. The entertainment was,
indeed, a rare musical treat, and
Honolulu audience dees not need
now to go to Boston to listen to such
music, for Miss Dale's power of rem
dering the most difficult works of
that composer is truly realistic and
wonderful. Her style of singing is
enchanting, and her magic touches
| all. None but true-born musicians
will realize how artistic she is in inter
preting the power of music. Indeed
the whole entertainment was Of an
intellectual nature, and those who
were fortunate enough to hear her
were, no doubt, benefited.
One would have thought from the
large number on the Pensacola last
evening that not enough were left
for second gathering, but the large
and select audience at Punahou
proved the illusion.
After few minutes of social con
verse Miss Dale's pleasant voice ar
rested attention. A lecture is no
new thing for Honolulu, but such an
evening as last night at Punahou is
not only something wholly new, but
very delightful and altogether be-
witching. To have the facts of Schu-
bert's life told in lively manner by
a very charming young lady, and
then to have the whole talk inter
spersed with the beautiful songs and
music of that master was, to say the
least, very entertaining. The audi
ence evidently felt so, and frequently
interrupted with applause.
The following were the selections
rendered by Miss Dale, she also
playing the accompanyments:

1. Longing to Wander.
2. Jealousy and Pride.
3. Impatience.

ABSENTEE MOBILES.

A correspondent calls attention
to the fact that there are absentee
mobiles in Europe, and no signs
of their coming back. Their
resignation is what is wanted now.
The provision in our present consti-
tuition enabling persons to vote
who are not citizens is an
offense against common sense.
1t gives the right of citizen
ship without its responsibilities.
The same thing holds, a fortiori,
of persons who represent foreign
powers. Such persons were never
qualified to exercise legislative
functions in Hawaii, and their
resignation is what we ask now.

TAXING CONTRACTS.

On the first page we publish
another important decision of the
Supreme Court in banco, relating
to the taxation of contracts. The
Court, following the reasoning of
Mr.. Hatch, counsel for defendants,
holds that the taxation of contract
between cultivators on the one part
and mill-owners on the other for
the raising of cane and making of
sugar is illegal, since it really
amounts to double taxation. In the
same way, labor contracts are not
taxable, not being assignable, and
having no assessable value.
The attempt to tax contracts
must inevitably result in failure.
If the value of a contract does not
express itself in the material things
to which it appertains, then its
value must consist simply in the
expectation of profit to be derived
from the exercise of industry and
brains. In either case, taxation is
impossible, in the first because it
involves double taxation ; in the
second, because it is idle to think
of taxing so ideal thing as an ex-
pectation of profit.
In the nature of the case there
must always be a kind of value
which cannot be reached by the
taxing power. Opportunities, in
dustry, commercial foresight, youth
and health all have value and bring
a price. Yet they are and must
forever remain untaxable, simply
because they are a form of value so
fluctuating and unascertainable
that political economy and law
cannot deal with them.
The statute under which this ac-
ton arises is a very useless one
and is practically ineficacious. It
enumerates as taxable, l. Watches,
jewelry and machinery; 2. Fran
chises, patents and contracts. Why
not add lamp chimneys, broom
handles, horseshoes? The person
drawing the bill seems to have had
an idea that watches and machin-
cry were not personal property,
and hence not taxable. AS to
contracts" the Court has not
directly declared the law to be un-
constitutional, and yet it is at'least
doubtful whether any attempt to
tax contract would be upheld.
The presence of such q law on our
statute books illustrates afresh how
unsatisfactory and slipshod present
Iaw-making methods are. None
but lawyers should draft bills, and
not every lawyer is competent to
do so. 1t is a business by itself,
and demands special aptitude as
we'll as training.

So spias the flying world away;
This CLAW, well mixed with mari and Sanu
Follows the motion of my hand;
For some must follow and some command
Though all are made Of clay J!
That reminds us! Do you
admire the beautiful in art as
applied to Pottery? Yes
Then look in at the few odd
pieces we have in our cases.
They are only the first words
in the chapter from the fascin-
ating- story the piles of un-
packed casks will tell to your
eyes a month hence. Too
much elegance at once IS
worse than too little. Well
give it to you in moderate
doses.
The world is full of humbug,
and there's ala0ays a market
for it; pottery humbug and
other sorts: people like it
hence it hourishes. But have
you ever seen any humbug
about RooKwooD? We hav'nt,
neither have y0m, and yet the
trade in it is hourishing. Pot
terry is too plebeian a word to
use in this connection, but the
photographers say they can't
find one elegant enough to
mix with it, and combining the
two lifts Pottery from the hum
bic position it has occupied so
many thousand years. Rock
| WOOD deserves something bet
| ter, but we can't coin names;
perhaps yow can suggest one?
| If you wear a moustache
and drink tea or coffee,
you've noticed that you have
to wipe your fascinater every
time you take a mouthful Of
either beverage. It's a lot of
bother, and the napkins are
soiled at every meal. You
can't do without a napkin, and
you wouldn't part with your
moustache for a trihe. The
chances are that the person
who invented the means to
avoid such trouble and dirt
was a woman. They're full of
good ideas, and the Moustache
Cup is one of them. If your
| husband has a moustache and
soils the linen with it, he ought
to have a cup. If your boy
has a suspicion ola moustache
he'll think he must have one
to save annoyance. You'd
better get him one !; it won't
hurt you, and it'll make him
feel lots bigger. We have
them in Haviland, and you
can get one or a dozen.
