PERsnNAL INTERESTS.

The Hon. Thomas f. Bayard recently de-
livered an address before the alumni and
students of Michigan University which has
been published in pamphlet form The ad-
dress appears to be part of the campaign
of education which is supposed to be IN
progres : Mr.. Bavard refers to the funda-
mental law that private property shall not
be taken for public uses as the foundation
stone of the American editice. These
simple principles" Mr.. Bayard says,
found loyal application and enforcement
for many years, and the result has been
the heanhful operation of the forces that
have combined to make rs free and strong"
In moro recent years there has been de-
parture from these simple principles. Com
binations of capital, intelligence aud selfish
Yigor, Incorporated in legal strength, have
been formed upon a scale unknown in the
previous history Of the world, and amid
the excitement and exigeneies of civil war
have contrived TO obtain possession of gov
ernmental agencies and power, and are ex-
ercising them not for public but for private
profit and advantage"
Another evil Mr. Bayard finds in the per-
version of the power of taxation by the
insertion, under personal influence and for
personal ends, of provisions in our tariff
laws which involve consequences never dis
cussed nor understood by the legislators,
nor by the defenseless public, which in the
end has to suffer by them. Mr.. Bayard
goes some distance round to get a slap at
the protective tariff but we presume that
lie thinks he administered it all the same.
The custom of laying down a platform of
principles from which no one disSeuts and
deducing from them conclusions that may
or may not be true is an ancient method Of
disseminating error. After describing very
accurately certain evils that are admitted to
exist, Mr. Bayard assumes that the public
must suffer from legislation lie had not in
cluded among the existing evils While
tariff legislation has doubtless been pro-
NOTED by selfish interests, the conclusion is
not warranted that the defenSeless public
has suffered by such legislation. Iudiyid-
ualS have undoubtedly been enriched by the
tariff, but the same may be said of any
other wise and benefeent law. In fact,
law, or system Of laws, that did not benefit
anybody would be something to avoid. Mr..
Bayard uttered great many truths in his
address which do not lose their force by his
intimation that the tariff is to be classed
with trusts in their effect upon the public.

A BABY COUNTESS.
Deserted by Her Mother and
Taken to Prison.

Gate-keeper Boland was straining his eyes
while reading paper in the dim light of the
City Prison yesterday afternoon, when
stout, heavy-Set man appeared with big
bundle in his arms.
"What have you there?" asked the man
with the keys. as he threw open the gate of
the city's bastile.
ITS baby" said the visitor, "and /
want to leave it here 10 be taken care Of"
Then the man with the bundle entered the
pvison hospital and consigned the infant,
which is not more than two weeks old, to
the tender care of Mrs. Gilmore, hematron.
The man gave his name as Peter Rulohvas-
bask, and said that his father is Russian
Count living at St. Petersburg.
Il am a jeweler by trade" said he, land

| married, and this babe is the result of the
union. Two weeks ago my wife left Inc,
carrying the little one with her. When |

circumstances. l want to keep track of

Tears streamed from the fathers eyes as
he sadly left the prison. The deserted babe
will probably be sent to founding asylum.

SEIZED AND SOLD.

Some months ago Mrs. William Astor,
known to the New York Four Hundred
simply as Mrs. Astor," imported two
dresses from Paris. No one knows what
Mrs. Astor agreed to pay for the dresses,
but they were invoiced TO her at 1000 francs
each. The New York Customs officials con-
sidered this an undervaluation and raised
the price to $500 francs. Mrs. Astor de-
clined to pay the duties on the Custom
house valuation and the two dresses were ac-
cordiEgly sold. The prices they brought at
auction correspond with the Government
valuation. One of the dresses brought $500,
the other $40. One was bought by dry
goods firm who want the dress for a dummy
the other by a concert hall proprietor, who
will show the dress on the person of one of
his actresses. The circumstance that two
dresses designed for the leader of New
York society should be put to such uses
would not be worth comment, but the fact
that family of such wealth should haggle
with the CustOm-house over few dollars
in the form of duty is matter of public
concern. Had Mrs. Aster reason to believe
that the Government of the United States
was making an unlawful charge against her,
or was she unwilling to pay the lawful duty
on her imported dresses? The estimate the
Customs officials placed upon the dresses
seems to have been sustained by the prices
obtained at auction, though it is possible
that tile purchasers had more regard TO the
value Of the dresses as an advertising me-
dunn than as wearing apparel If Mrs
AstOr was an actress who profited by no.
toriety. one might ook for motive for her
conduct in that direction, but as money can
be no object to her the motive must be
sought in some other source.

sion, and the sooner 1t is dispelled the better 1t
will be for our interests. Let the planters go 10
the teeming labor markets of Asia and make the
best terms they can; let the Administration get
the best terms and concessions 1t can from the
United States let US make tile most of our op-
poTtunites and resources, and, above all, let us
learn TO rely entirely upon ourselves aud build
no hopes upon annexation or other vagarles.
The delusion the correspondent declines
to consider has once been a reality. For
several years the Hawaiian planters were
helped to the extent of twoeents pound
on all the sugar they exported to the United
States. a good many millions were thus
put in the pockets of Hawaiian planters {.
The policy would doubtless have been con-
tinued if sugar had not been put on the
United States free list OF course the prop
osition to give the planters of foreign
country bounty of two cents pound on
sugar could not be entertained. To get that
bounty the islands must become part Of
the United States.
The morning call., 1891-09-03
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.

The action of the United States in remov-
ing duties from sugar has placed the sugar
planters of the Hawaiian ISLANDS on the.
same level other sugar planters occupy.
Under the old tariff the island planters had
an advantage of two cents pound against
the sugar of all countries except that pro-
dnced in the United States. The loss of
this advantage in the American market has
set the islanders to thinking. They would
like to retain their political Independence If
they could and enjoy all the benefits of a
membership Of the family Of States, but 1t
appears from recent letters that they are
inclined to accept the benefits at the ex-
pense of political independence. A corre-
spondent of an island paper says that
the best proof of the assum mption that
the United States does not want to
annex the islands is found in the
fact that the islands have not been
annexed The correspondent argues that
the United States will not take the islands
and pay as a part of the price two cents
pound on island sugar. In this conclusion
we think the correspondent in error The
two cents pound on sugar would not cut
much figure in the case if the population of
the islands were such as the people of the
United States desire to incorporate in the
American family. The policy the island
planters have pursued in filling the islands
with Chinese and japanese is perhaps the
greatest present obstacle to the annexation
OF the islands. II the islands were peopled
as the United States is annexation would
be the natural solution of the problem their
proximity to the United States presents.
So far as defense is concerned, we might as
