A Review of the Tariff.

In speaking to the citizens of three counties
at Woodstock on October LIST, Senator Cor
man said
1t is not necessary for me before such an
audience to go into the details of the tariff; it
is not necessary for me to point out to you
how you have been taxed on every article of
consumption. You know, as | do, that in
the first tariff Tor Hamilton tariff the average
of duties was only 81 per cent. You know
that notwithstanding the war of 1872 that in
the protective tariff known as Clay's tariff,
the tariff of '32, the highest average rate
reached in those years was less than 80 per
cent. upon the whole imports. You know in
1910 Henry Clay said, "No one, Mr.. President,
in the commencement of the protective policy
ever supposed that it would be perpetual. We
hoped and believed that temporary protection
extended to our infant industries would bring
them up and enable them 10 stand competition
with those of Europe You know that the
Democrats from 40 TO 81 maintained a low
tariff.
These were years of prosperity. You know
in 1859 mess pork was sold for SlS. u barrel
and wheat for $1.65 bushel. Everybody
knows there was prosperity then. Why Gar
field said that the decade from 1850 to 1860
was one of peace and prosperity. Senator
Allison said that the tariff of 1916, although
revenue tariff, was as perfect as any we ever
had. Blaine said the tariff of 1916 gave
abundant revenue and the business of the
country was in a fourishing condition. Presi-
dents Grant and Arthur, Republican Presi-
DENTS admitted from 1867 to 1888 the tariff
tax was too high; they recommended re-
duetion. Senator Sherman, of Ohio, in 1867,
said that if we rednced our products to a
specie basis and put them on the same basis
as before the war the present rate-that is
the rate of 1s67-would be too high. In 1872
In 1888 the Republicans attempted to re.
duce the rates, but in fact increased them;
and then came the Mills bill, which never be-
came law, and then the campaign of 1888
and Harrison's success and then the Nc
Kinley bill, increasing the war taxes on all
the commodities that 90 into general use, in
creasing the duties the highest upon the
articles that find their way into the ordinary
homes. Brussels carpet, used by the rich,
they increased but z39 per cent, felt or ordi-
nary carpets, so per cent All wooden, knit
goods, ready made clothing and wraps were
increased. Window glass was increased; DAT
meal doubled. Everything except labor was
increased.
This enormous tax produced about $780,
000,0 n year. Four hundred and fifty
millions taken from this people to support the
government No wonder we are poor! Tax
gathers are paid to collect it and there are
clippings from it in the banks and centres
that it passes through. Interest is squeezed
from it by the money changers, and when
you want to get it back you can only do
it by selling your corn and your wheat at
price lower than it was when the Republican
party came into power.

Death of J. w. AIapai.

Captain j. W. Alapai, formerly of
the Honolulu police force, died of
consumption at Lihue, Kauai, on
Saturday, March 2Sth. Prior to his
coming to Honolulu to join the city
force, he was Deputy Sheriff of Lii
hue for many years, holding that
office with great credit. He was a
thorough gentleman, and took much
interest in church and temperance
work. The authorities here, trusting
to his we'll known abilities as police
officer, transferred him to the Homo
lulu police force. Mr.. Alapai was
taken i'll about a year ago. Nearly a
month ago, Rev. j. B. Hanaike, his
brother, took him to Kauai, hoping
thereby that he would regain health.
Mrs. Alapai followed them for Kauai
two weeks later. She died last We'd
nesday, three days before her hus-
bands death.

At KaWaiahaO.

The quarterly exhibition of the
Sunday Schools connected with the
parish Of Kawaiahao Church took
place yesterday, large audience
being present on the occasion. Most
OF the exercises showed improve
ment over previous exhibitions, and
this was particularly so in the sing
ing, where all the schools Joined in.
Whoever has charge of the drilling
OF these scholars of all ages de-
serves special credit. 1t is doubtful
whether many foreign schools in
the older countries surpass in the
sweet melody and harmony dis
played by these young representa-
tives of the rising generation of
Hawaii.

What is to be Done About 1t?

[ notice that the cottony cushion
scale insect, which has been driven
from our shade trees by the import
ed Australian lady bug, has taken
possession of a weed-a dwarf
species of which abounds on
Punchbowl and elsewhere in the
vicinity of Honolulu. From this
position of security it stands ready
at any time, it seems, to make an
invasion of any of our shade trees
which may be unprotected by the
presence of their enemy, the lady
bug. An attempt should certainly
be made to drive them from this
stronghold. Probably all that is
necessary is to give the lady bug a
pointer or two. A. B. Lyons.
