THAT FIFTEEN PER CENT BILL.

Noble Williams bill to protect
mechanics and manufacturers by
requiring the Government to pur-
chase all its supplies at home when
the price bid is not more than Is
per cent. higher than the lowest
offer from abroad came up for its
third reading yesterday.
The bill has no excuse for being,
and should not pass. 1t was doubt
less introduced by Noble Williams
out of a vague feeling that he must
do something for his constituents,
and pushed in the hope of influ-
encing votes at the late election.
The election is past now, and this
affords the honorable Noble an OPP
portunity to return to more rational
views.
The bill proposes in effect to tax
the whole population of the King
dom in order that business may be
little better for half a dozen firms
and forty Or fifty of their employ
ees in Honolulu. 1t does not APP
pear why the firms mentioned are
entitled to Government aid in their
private business any more than
anyone else of the 10000 inhabit-
ants of this little Kingdom. Water
pipe and machinery are not the
only things imported into Hawaii
We also import lamp chimneys and
gold watches and tenpenny nails
Why not ask the Legislature tc
impose a duty on these, and indeed
on all of the thousands of articles
brought here from abroad, so that
they may be manufactured here al
loss. What Noble Williams asks
is that the Government may assist
A. B. and c., SO that they may
manufacture at profit what they
would otherwise manufacture at {
loss. But if this is going to be q
good thing for A. B. and c. i
would be just as good thing fol
the other letters of the alphabet
The claim of the rest of US to Gov
eminent aid in making up an an
nual deficit, as that of these few
manufacturers and mechanics o
Honolulu is just as good, VIII,
should the whole people be taxed
for their benefit solely ?

The New Missionary Vessel.

Rev. A. c. Walkup's gasoline
schooner Hiram Bingham was sue
cessfully launched on September
26th. She has a vapor engine OF
81 horsepower. Mr.. Walkup hopes
to be at sea before the next mail
steamer leaves San Francisco, yet
hardly hopes to reach Honolulu in
his ocean greyhound " before the
arrival of the next mail. 1t is to be
hoped that the vigilant police au.
thorities will not mistake his
strange little craft for an opium
smuggler.

Noble Williams states that the
Government has spent a million
and half for supplies during the
last ten years, which it might have
spent at home. That is to say, it
might have paid 1926, 900 more for
these supplies than it has, and it
is the loss of this golden oppor-
tunity which the hon. Noble so
deplores. He does not mean to
miss another, and so brings this
bill to provide that in the next ten
years the country shall pay $685.
600 more than it needs to pay, and
than it has paid in the past.
Protection of manufacturers in
the United States where there is
an abundance Of coal and iron,
and every natural facility, is very
different thing from protection in
Hawaii. The theory of the Amer
lean government has been that its
industries would one day be self
supporting, and many CT them are
already able to compete success
fully in the markets of the world.
1t would be recognized as folly
there to subsidize industries which
would always be dependent on
government aid. It is equally
folly here. Unless coal and iron
should be discovered here, and
even if they were, Hawaii will
still remain largely dependent on
foreign production for its manufac-
tured articles. This is not mis-
fortune. Foreign trade is a good
thing, and every country wants as
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1892-10-08

The encouragement of coffee,
ramie, tobacco, ETC., stands on
different basis. Those and other
industries should be assisted in a
moderate way on the supposition
that they will eventually become
self-supporting, If they are not
naturally profitable, then every
dollar of Government aid is worse
than wasted. 1t it because people
believe that the conditions of soil
and climate here are favorable that
they wish to get them started. But
would it be wise for New York
State to attempt by a bounty to
compete with the West Indies in
the production of oranges, or for US
to invoke Government aid to en-
courage the cultivation of apples?
Such measures would be just as
reasonable as Noble Williams cool
proposition to tax the whole people
for the temporary benefit of a few
men in Honolulu.

would be beautiful fat mat Of light bam-
boo wickerwork. There is no team work.
The game as played in Burmah Is run
strictly upon individual principles, and
zach man has the play all to himself. Knees,
elbows, feet, heads and shoulders play
their part and the main object Is to keep
the ball in motion and at the same time TO
prevent it from touching the ground.
Incidentally the players assume positions
that would cause professional contortion-
list to abandon his calling AS has been re-
marked, they call IL football in the coun-
try of the Burmese, but we who possess
civilization and are prone to discriminate
would term it Juggling" But ID is never
theless wonderful game, requiring skill
and proficiency. When one player has had
enough, and exhibited all his particular
tricks of play, the ball is passed on, and
whoever gets it proceeds at once to have an
exhibition on his own account. Thus 1t is
passed all around, and the spectators are
duly edited and delighted. The elite of
Rangoon society may rejoice in the game,
but when the light of advanced civilization
has driven away the shadows of that land,
and progress is implanted in their midst,
