Gives Bennie Harrison a Chance to Get
OF Lot Of Buncombe.
PIrTsBURG, Oct. 2l.-Last week w. G.
Cronemeyer, of the United States Iron
and Steel Tin Plate works, at Demmler,
Pa, sent President Harrison box OF
tin manufactured at the Demmler works.
This morning Cronemeyer received the
following letter from President Har-
rison, dated Washington, October 10th !:
"My Dear Sir--I have your letter of
October 18th, and the box of bright tin
plate which you sent as specimen OF
the product being turned out by the
United States Iron and Tin Plate COM
pany. have no skill in determining
the character of this work, but to the
eye it seems eminently satisfactory, and
thank you for this evidence that a new
industry has been established in the
United States. / cannot quite under
stand how any American can doubt we
have the mechanical skill and business
sagacity to establish successfully here
the manufacture OF tin plate. No
other country certainly surpasses
us in the inventive genius
of its citizens, or.in the business sagacity
of its capitalists. 1t is surprising to me
that any patriotic American should ap-
proach this question with desire to see
this great and interesting experiment
fail, or with unwillingness to accept the
evidence of its success, 1t will be a
great stepin the direction of commercial
independence when we produce our own
tinplate. 1t seems to me nothing, un-
less it be lack of faith in the main
tenance of the present law, can thwart
= IL IL. I ,,1x,-
derstand how our success should be
doubted and our failure accepted with
satisfaction in Wales, but l cannot un-
derstand how any American can take
that view of the question, or why he
should always approach every evidence
of the successful establishment of this
industry in this country, with a dispo-
sition to discredit and reject it. II the
great experiment is to fail, our OWE peo-
pie should not add to the modification
of failure the crime of rejoicing at it,"

Associated Press Dispatches.

LONDON, Oct. 2l.-The Valparaiso cor
respondent of the Times says: The
Chilean authorities show more friendly
feeling toward American sailors than
expected. The intendente assures me
that the report that the captain of the
United States warship Baltimore
consulted him in regard to the
safety of landing men, is without
foundation. The imprisoned sailors
will be released tomorrow if bail is
given. The Chileans wounded in the
riot are doing well. 1t is stated that
the Santiago government is considering
the possibility of granting general
amnesty to political prisoners, except
those accused of crimes and acts of
cruelty. The Chilean legation in Paris
has been notified that the affair of the
refugees at the American legation at
Santiago, presents no question of grav-
ity. No claims for indemnity have yet
been lodged by foreigners. The money
for the payment of the January coupon
Chilean debt, has been sent to Europe.
SANTIAGO, Chile, Oct. 2l.-Retnrns
from the election show the overwhelm-
ing defeat of the Clerical party. The
Liberals have large majority inthe
electoral college, the duties of the
members of which are to great extent,
similar to those of the presidential
electors in the United States,
with the important difference
that the members themselves
select and appoint the chief of the state.
The popularity of the Liberal party is
shown by the tact that it has elected
thirty candidates for the senate, while
the Clericals elected but two. In the
chamber of deputies the Liberals will
have control Of the house, with ma
jority of thirty, the returns showing the
election of sixty-two Liberals and thirty
two Clericals.

HONOR TO GRADY.
A Monument Unveiled to the Georgia
Editors Memory.

A Monument Unveiled to the Georgia
Editors Memory.
ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 21.-The ceremo-
MES incident to the unveiling of the
Grady monument attracted an immense
crowd OF strangers to this city today.
The city bore holiday attire, and bust
ness was to large extent suspended.
The weather was clear and cool. One of
the principal features of the unveiling
ceremonies was procession which was
composed OF police, military, G. A. R..
and civic societies. Following came the
governor and staff, the mayor and city
council and carriages containing Gov
ernor Hill, OF New York, other dis
tinguished guests, Mr.. Grady's fam
lily and the monument committee.
Shortly the procession halted at the
statue and the exercises began. The gov
ernor of the state presided. The statue
was unveiled by Miss Gussie Grady.
Fulton Colville delivered an address on
behalf OF the Grady monument commit
tee. Governor Hill, OF New York, was
introduced and delivered an address.
Governor Hill's address was lengthy
one, reviewed Mr.. Grady's career, and
was warmly eulogistic. Speaking of the
press, Governor Hill said: 1T is our
best security for the preservation of our
political institutions; our best safeguard
againstthe perversion of our government
$40 our editors we may look when
socialism and Capitalization stand un-
rebuked by those to whom ballots have
intrusted that responsibility. The free
dom and growth of the press will at last
invigorate that clause of our con-
stitution which withholds from the
government all but few specific
and expressly granted powers. Better
every just expansion of private freedom,
than any growth of government func-
ton; still more OF governmental usurpa-
tion."
A touching letter from Henry Waiter
son on Grady was read tonight at BAN
quet rendered Governor Hill by the
Young Mems Democratic club.

THE ORPHANS FAIR.
The Undertaking Is an Unqualified
Success,

The Undertaking Is an Unqualified
Success.
The attendance at the orphans fair
last night exceeded that of any previ-
GUS evening, the sterner sex being well
represented. Even at this early part of
the week the booths looked we'll de-
pleted of their stock in trade. The
ladies OF the different booths expressed
themselves as satisfied with the present
progress, and expect to have many more
pretty things to sell during the next
three nights. 1t may safely be said
that the fair even at this early date is
and will continue to be an unqualified
success.
NOTES.
The art booth presents the appear
ance of boudoir more than anything
else. The ladies in charge very sensibly
sell their wares at reasonable rates, and
they are in consequence doing rushing
business. The paintings of local views
sell better than anything else. Misses
radiant and were the center OF an ad-
miring crowd.
The postoffice still continues as popu-
lar as ever, due solely to the ladies in
charge. M
Fancy booth number two was one OF
the most effective stands in the hall.
In the voting contest for the silk flag
the l.. A. @. B. A. was the favorite.
Miss Sadie Maxwell is in the lead of

The management want to thank most
cordially the Los Angeles Business college
for their valuable contribution, tuition
of three months for either boy or girl, to
be sold at auction Saturday night.
One point lacking at the fair is news
paper stand, which would certainly do
well. The young ladies would make such
capital newsboys, so to speak.
Company Q, Captain Meyers, drilled
well. The applause which followed
their excellent maneuvers showed how
much they were thought Of.
There certainly was the :'milk OF
human kindness" somewhere about
Mrs. Simpson donation of Jersey COW.
The lunch counter was we'll patronized
throughout the evening, as were the
soda water and ice cream stands.
The ladies in charge of the lunch an
nounce an excellent menu for today.
Mr.. Burr's solo was we'll received, as
was little Clarence Colmer's dancing.
Special notice is called to tonight's
programme, as it is of unusual excel
lence. 1t is as follows

mineral lands bearing gold. silver,
copper or lead from becoming the
property of those corporations under
their grants. 1t is recommended that
the convention authorize it's president
to appoint a committee of seven mem-
bers, which shall take steps to secure
such united and efficient action as will
save these mines and mineral lands to
the people.
The resolution on naturalization says:
"Our laws should be more stringent, and
only the United States courts should ex-
ercise the power of naturalization.
Another resolution sets forth that the
necessities of the trans-Mississippi states
demand an ocean outlet on the northeast
coast of the Gulf of Mexico; urges upon
the secretary of war the completion of
the ietties now under construction at
Galveston, as speedily as possible, and
that the western trunk lines of railroads
be requested to extend their railway
facilities to Galveston as rapidly as the
jetties proceed.
Another resolution declares: "It is
the sense of this congress that the i'm
migration laws should be go amended
that only emigrants who both desire
and are fitted for American citizenship
should be permitted to land on our
shores, and that the laws should be
more stringent"
Upon the silver question there we're
three reports, all of which were laid over
for future discussion.
The convention attempted to fix the
place of next meeting, but after the
claims of Salt Lake and Helena were
presented, the matter was laid on the
table.
Colonel Gresham spoke on the deep
water harbor question and the benefits
which would accrue from Galveston
harbor. He expressed the belief that
in year there will be twenty feet of
water there.
A further resolution was adopted urg-
ing congress to provide for the further
improvement of Galveston harbor, and
congratulating the people of Valesco on
having III feet of water in their
harbor.
Adjourned until tomorrow.

issippi Congress.
OMAHA, Oct. 21.-A debate on free
coinage OF silver, which was on the pro-
gramme for this mornings session OF
the Trans-M Mississippi congress, was de-
ferred until later in the session, and ex-
Governor Hubbard, of Texas, addressed
the delegates on deep-water harbor on
the Gulf.
At the afternoon session there was a
lengthy discussion as to the manner of
disposing of the report of the committee
on resolutions. 1t was finally decided
to read them and adopt section by sec
ton. Those adopted are on land grants,
naturalization and gulf deep-harbor
matters.
The first named sets forth that inter-
est in mining creates and adds to the
wealth OF this country nearly hundred
million dollars annually, of gold and
silver alone, a product whose scarcity
means the depreciation of the values OF
the farms, homes and real property of
the country, as we'll as of the wheat,
cotton and corn produced by our sterling
millions, and whose abundance means
increased comfort and prosperity that
there are millions of acres of gold and
silver bearing mineral lands OF the
west within the limits of the grants
to the Pacific railroads and

ALAsKA AN EXPLORATION,
The Pack Horse Experiment Pronounced
Successful.


SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 21.-A second
letter has been received from Lieut.. E.
J. Glove who, with John Dalton, started
last spring to find pack trail into the
interior of Alaska. Glove has now re-
turned to Pyramid harbor, from which
place he writes Altogether we had a
most successful journey, for we covered
a lot OF new territory hitherto unex-
plored. Our experiment with pack
horses is destined to play an important
part in Alaskan history. 1t proves a
possible transport where none before ex-
listed, except by Indian carrier, mode
of conveyance upon which the solid de-
velopment of the country could not be
made. The United States and the do
minion government can now follow our
footsteps and survey the land they
claim. They can go in and fill in the
blank chart with the lakes and streams
belonging there"

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1891-09-21

The native newspaper, Elele,
which, like the Ka Leo, prints
one page of English with three
pages of Hawaiian, startled the
community on Saturday last, with
it's attacks on leading citizens
public and private, uttered in
language that should leave no
doubt Of its publisher not being in
his right mind. His arrest and the
closing of his Office followed as
measures Of necessity. The Ka
Leo has not yet reached the same
depth of personal malignity, except
perhaps in its malicious and I'M
called-for attacks on the Queen,
but the case of the Elele should
serve as a lesson, that there is a
point beyond which forbearance
ceases to be a virtue.

THE DARDANELLES QUESTION.

The war cloud now again
threatening all the great powers of
Europe proceeds as usual from the
re-opening of what has long been
known as the EASTERN QUESTION.
What this Eastern Question actu-
ally is, and how and by whom it
will be answered is q conundrum
to which no two States in Europe
would give the same reply, but
still it may be possible to form an
idea as to how this perplexing
question may appear to the rulers
of the various countries most in
terested.
To Russia it means aggression
pure and simple, the possession of
the whole of the Black Sea littoral,
the free passage, for the present,
and final possession of both shores
of the Bosphorus, Sea of Marmora,
and Dardanelles, and thence to the
confines of Greece, the Mediterra-
mean coast from the Dardanelles to
the Suez Canal, the absorption Of
the recently erected States of Rou-
mania, Bulgaria and Servia which
OF course means present prepond-
erance IN, and future possession of,
all South Eastern Europe and Asia
Minor. OF Russian plans regard
ing Asia proper we need not speak
here they too may be defined by
the one word, aggression.
To Austria the Eastern Question
means Russian control of the
mouths of the Danube, the enwrap-
ping of the south eastern frontier
by Russia, by means of the extinc-
ton of the Balkan States created
by the treaty of Berlin expressly
as check on Russian aggression.
1t means constant intrigues with
and discontents and possible revo-
luton in her SIav provinces, and
the extinction, in case of Russian
success, of her chance of ever
reaching the Egean by the Gulf of
Salonica, or extending her sea-
board on the Adriatic in the direc-
ton of Montenegro and Albania.
To Greece the success of Russia
means the acquisition of Epirus,
Thessaly and share at least of
Macedonia, prior to the whole be-
ing swallowed by the great North
ern Power.
