with it. Will the enterprise be
carried out prudently or waste
fully? The answer to this question
must depend, in large measure,
upon the qualifications of the Min
lister of the Interior. If the present
incumbent remains in office, any
work undertaken will be carried
through on sound business prin-
ciples. The actual cost of construc-
ton to the Government would be
less than to a private company.
The money would be forthcoming,
so that the contractors would be
safe, and the result would be that
the Government, under the COM
petitive system applied to all its
work, would get a substantial road
at the lowest possible cost, and
cheaper than any corporation pos
sibly could under the system of
railroad building which obtains in
the United States. IF the money
can be borrowed, why should we
not have the road?
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1892-12-07

The difficulty with the system of
assisting private enterprises now
in vogue is that the Government
pays out hard coin and gets no
direct return. We do not criticize
the policy of subsidizing railroads
and encouraging agricultural en-
terprises. On the contrary, assist
ance should be more generously
rendered than it has been. But if
the Government pays a subsidy it
should be paid in stock or bonds,
or both. If it guarantees interest,
it should receive valuable consid-
Grafton in stock. AS it stands, it gets
no direct return, and the result is
that the substantial assistance
needed by the new enterprise is not
granted. If the Government builds
the road itselfit gets dollar for dol
lar. We do not believe in driving out
private enterprise, but where none
offers let our Government step into
the breach and create the great
channels of intercommunication
which are necessary to the develop
ment of the country and its pros
perity.

THE HlLo AND HAMAKUA RAILROAD.

The Finance Committee reported
yesterday on Bill 113. This bill
provides for the issue of bonds to
the amount of 100000, the pro-
ceeds to be applied to the construc-
ton of a wharf and warehouses at
Hilo and the beginning of the Hilo
and Hamakua Railroad. The Fin
ance Committee question the wis
dom Of the Government going into
railroad building and, in any case,
they think that before railroad is
constructed it is proper to ascertain
whether those shippers who now
have tolerable landings will under
take to give their freight to the
railroad or not. They therefore
recommend, in case the House
think it we'll to undertake enter
prises of this nature, that the whole
matter be referred to a commission,
with instructions to report to the
next Legislature.
That the amount of land to be
opened up, the amount of freight
to be expected, and the kindred
matters, should be carefully inves-
tigated before any railroad is un-
dertaken in the Hilo district is I'M
deniable. On the other hand these
are matters in which great deal
of information has already been
collected, which could probably be
made available at very short no.
tice. A road through Hilo and
Hamakua will be costly and could
not pay at first, but those who be-
lieve that the Islands have a flu
ture, feel confident that such a
road would pay well in the end. 1t
would pay the Government better
than anyone else, for the Govern
would get, in addition to the earn
ings of the road, a large return in
taxes on the values which would
be created.

Why should not the Government
build railroads? State ownership
is defensible on theory, g. rail-
roads, telegraphs, STR lighting,
are things that concern the general
public as much as the individual
owner, and in this regard are ex-
actly on par with roads, wharves,
banks and post offices. So much
for theory. In practice we find
the railroads very generally in the
hands of the State throughout
Continental Europe, and the tend
ency of the Government to regulate
and control these enterprises is on
the increase throughout the world.
Administration in Hawaii has
faults enough, but it is clean and
honest in comparison with much
that is found elsewhere. If the
Government decides to build a
road on Hawaii, we may feel reas-
onably sure that there will be
very little stealing in connection

latter day democracy stands in the
south for unequal rights and minority
conspiracieS, and throughout the union
for a tariff policy by which American
labor will be degraded to the European
level. Jackson's great strength lay in
his intense devotion to the principle of
nationality and in his adherence of
sectionalism. A latter-day democracy,
by the revival of the constitutional
quibbling of Calhounism, and by its
persistent hostility to national policies,
has repudiated his principles. What
has been hest in the tendencies of its
history has fallen into innocuous des-
uetude. What has been worst in the
theories and practice of it's slave-own-
ing and sectional leaders is tenaciously
preserved
"Republicanism, on the other hand,
holds fast to everything that is en-
nobling and elevating in its his
tory. 1t is the party of ma
tional honor which has removed the
foul reproach of slavery and re-
deemed the plighted faith of the gov
ernment in financial legislation and
administration. 1t is the party of
equal rights, an unsullied ballot and
honest elections. 1t is the party of ma
tional policies of comprehensive scope
and enlightened self interest by which
industry is diversified, labor systemat-
ically protected and the prosperity of
all classes and sections promoted. Be
tween its present policies and the ira
ditions of its glorious past there is un-
broken continuity of patriotic action"

If the Mckinley wool duties did not
protect American wool prices why has
the price of wool fallen in the London
market over twenty-one per cent. since
January, 1890, while in the same time the
fall in the price of American wool has
been only seven per cent?
Why should Democratic Labor Com
missioner Peck's report, showing how
the Mckinley law has increased wages
and given life to industry, cause such
great sorrow in the free trade camp?
If the tariff has caused strikes, why
were there lao less strikes in New
York state in 1891 than there were in
1890?
Is the example of Grover Cleveland,
who Immediately before his first nom
ination for the presidency confessed
that he didn't know thing about the
tariff" and who wrote his tariff mes
sage at the dictation of southern free
traders, better one for democrats to
follow than that of jefferson, Madison,
Jackson, Benton and Randall?
With cost OF living lower and farm
prices higher than two years ago, as
admitted by democratic Senators Car
Isle and Harris, would not the farmer
be foolish indeed were he to vote
against protection, the farmers policy?
Are the free traders who attempted
to nullify the constitution in 1892 and
rebelled against it in 1861 better judges
of its provisions than the protectionists
who fought and bled for it during FIVE
long years of war?-American Econo-

THE PARTY OF FRAUD.
Some of the Blots Upon the Democratic
Record.


The democratic party is a cool hand
at pleading for the public confidence.
In circular addressed to the people
and issued last week, the national COM
mittee informs the public that with
a body of hired professionals drilled
and experienced in political intimida-
ton and political debauchery, our op-
ponents are preparing final assault
upon the freedom and honesty of the
ballot" 1t asks for money to ''detect,
to prosecute and to punish crimes
against the purity of the ballot, where
soever in the United States they are
perpetrated and by whomsoever COM
mitted or directed.
This is cool. The knave who
snatches a tray Of diamonds and runs
with it down the street crying: stop
thief, )" is not more impudent. Why,
the history of the democratic party is
plastered over with the most gigantic
frauds against the ballot. One of it's
watchwords in the present campaign
is: Down with the force bill and
negro domination" This means that
the frauds against the ballot in the
great majority of democratic states
ought not to be interfered with by law
A federal law might secure to the
negro voter the same chance to vote
and to have his vote counted as the
white voter has. 1t is a confession
that the present democratic domina-
ton is secured and maintained
by robbing the negro of his
rights. The same democratic commit
tee last week rejoiced over the news of
the election in Florida There were
democratic gains in that state. OF
course there were. But it was be-
cause no republican ticket was IN the
field, and no republican ticket was
nominated because republican voters
and republican votes are systematic
ally overborne by fraud. The Florida
democracy have made the freedom and
honesty of the ballot a bitter sarcasm
and republican government mockery.
And what of Alabama? What of
the frauds done in the name of the
democratic party in that state? We do
not need to quote from republican
sources. We have only to refer to the
testimony of democrats. At the recent
convention of jefferson democrats in
Augusta, the hail was made to ring
with denunciations of the frauds COM
mitted by the democratic poll officers
in the August election.

Talk about ''the purity and honesty
of the ballotr' Look about you in
every democratic state! What about
the fifty or sixty election officers in
Hudson county, n. j., serving out sem
tences for gross crimes against the bal
lot? They are all democrats What
about the frauds perpetrated in this
state last fall by which the control Of
the senate was stolen? The thieves
were all democrats; and it is not long
since the mugwump press was ringing
with denunciations of the crime-the
same press that is now shouting about
republican fraud and corruption.

professions of the democratic address
of devotion to the honesty and purity
of the ballot. They will call to mind

how utterly the democratic party has
outgrown its ancient principles and
policies and at the same time has fallen
into the clutch of its worst elements,
while, on the other hand. the repub-

in the development of a genuine civili-

THE RAILROAD QUESTION.

The Transportation Rates of America
Compared with Those OF Foreign Coun-
tries
Mr.. j. S. Jeans,a well-known English
writer on railroad and statistical sub
jects, and member of the British Sta
tistical society, published in 1887 a work
entitled Railway Problems a stand
ard authority in England 1t is usually
the case that an Englishman on Amer
lean subjects does no. lean toward the
complimentary method of treatment;
but Mr.. Jeans has been compelled by
the plain and incontestable facts to
speak in very high terms of American
railroads, their efficient and economical
operation and low rates.
He says that in 1880, the average rate
for the transportation of freight per
ton per mile upon fifteen leading Amer
lean railroads east and west was LOS
cents, while three years later the aver
age rate per ton per mile was >. OF cents
in the following European countries:
Germany, Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
France, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway,
Roumania, Russia, Finland and Swift
zerland
Between 1871 and 1884 the capital
expended in American railways had in
creased by S96 so for every man, woman
and child in the United States in the
census year 1850 In the United King
dom the increase of railway capital
during the same interval would repre-
sent only about S33. SS per head of the
population of 1881.
I'm 1881 a report was presented by n
special commission appointed by the
Italian government to inquire into the
relations between the railways and the
state. They did not encourage the
principle of state control Under con-
tracts made in 1885 the state ceded the
control of the railways to two great
companies for sixty years, each party
having, however, the right to retire at
the end of twenty or forty years. The
companies buy at Il valuation the roll
ing stock now owned by the state, and
keep it in repair at their own charge as
part of the ordinary operating expenses.
There is probable no other single
industry that gives employment to so
large a number in the principal cOun-
tries of the world, regarded as Il whole,
as that of railway working, unless it be
that of agriculture. In the United
Kingdom the railway system as whole
found direct employment in 1884 for
367, ,793 persons
I'm 1850 the American railway sys-
tenn furnished direct employment to
4lS,957 persons, being an average of
nearly five persons to each mile of line

to milage is assumed for 1856, the rail
