An English View From Japan

Paramount" Blounts plan for
turning the Hawaiian Islands over
to Claus Spreckels, ex-Queen Liliu-
okalani and the British, appears to
have the approval of the Admins
tration. Such is the way New
York paper speaks of President
Cleveland's probable decision to do
justice to Hawaii and to re-instate a
sovereign unlawfully deposed. The
paper by the way speaks OF the dis
solute Queen" as if that were sutfi-
cient argument for deposing her.
Now if America means to depose
every dissolute monarch on the face
of the earth she will have no time
for bimetallism or reform of the
tariff The injustice of the present
Government, which is almost purely
maintained by Z. S. citizens, is illus
trated by glance at the population
returns. There are 1000 foreigners
and 5000 Hawaiians entitled to vote
on the islands, and out of the 1000
foreigners only 1900 are Americans.
This is the minority which has at
present the reins of power. The
sneer with regard to the British is
wholly unfounded. If Britain wanted
Hawaii she would have taken it
years ago. At the present time She
has enough to do to keep what she
has already possession of.-Japan

Hawaii Belongs to the Hawaiians

knowledging the tremendous wrong
committed by ex Minister Stevens,

NATIONALIzE THE LIQUOR BUSI-

This is the First Step Towards Success
full Control of Its Evil Results,

full Control of Its Evil Results,
EDITOR ADvoCATE:-I am near seventy
years of age, and Esve long been a diligent
reader and an ardent admirer Of your paper,
and so am still. have for some time
past noted with pleasure your utterances in
favor Of temperance and control of the
liquor business, but must confess my sur
prise at your coming out in your issue Of
April in favor of what is called the pub
liO conduct" Of the whole business, or the
naturalization Of the traffic."
Now l admit that the peril Of the present
situation is just such as you represent it to
be. l admit further, that the very best
method Of dealing with the drink evil is
very difficult question to decide; but il
seems to me that the plan which you pro-
pose has drawbacks which you may not
have thought Of. The fact is, 80 far as I
am able TO see, one or the other Of two very
great evils must result from your plan.
Your idea is, to do away with the "ele-
ment of profit" which you think is tho
main stronghold Of the present system. Do
you mean by this, that the manufacturer
(which under that system would be the
government as well as the seller, should be
deprived of all profit from the business3
II not, then it would either throw another
small army Of people out of employment,
the same as prohibition does, or else the
consumption must be vastly increased, for
without doubt the government could carry
on the business with vastly fewer men than
are now employed. Besides this, the idea
of our government becoming the sole pro-
prietor and conductor Of such business
is, to me at least, extremely distssteful.
But if you say yes, then the result would
be that liquors must be furnished to the
consumers at the absolute cost Of produO-
tion, which is we'll known to be but mere
tribe; and thus the facilities for excessive
drinking would be increased many fold. In
this case the only safeguard against such
excessive drinking would be, for the gov
srnment to prescribe just how much liquor
man may have per day, and could such a
law be enforced any more readily than our
present probibitory lawsg think not.
RETIRED MINISTER.
Clay Center, Kss., April 6, 1893.
1t is not at all surprising that men
like our correspondent who have lived
to old age under the existing system
of individualism, should experience
some misglvings in view Of propo-
sition involving SO radical an inno-
vation of the forms and customs and
business methods with which they
have been familiar al their lives, as
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-04-12

this question carefully and candldly,
as we believe he will, he can arrive at
no other conclusion, in our judgment,
then that public control affords the
only promise of successful control of
this business.
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-04-12

however, because any system which
cannot be logically sustained against
such objections as may arise does
not deserve to be adopted, and never
can, in fact, receive the support Of
the people.
Our correspondent admits the COR
rectness of our basic propositions.
He recognizes that the liquor COM
blne is allied to other cspitallstic In
terests, and that the dangers we
have pointed'out are all real. As we
have already observed, the chief
ground OF rational difference of
opinion upon the subject relates to
the best methed Of dealing with
evil.
While the removal of the element
of profit from the traffic would elimi-
nate the great individual incentive
for it's continuance, still this is not all
that is involved in the system of pub
lie control. The liquor power with
all it's vast machinery for the corrup-
tion of politics, the purchase of votes,
both at the polls and in state and ma
tionsl legislatures, and the bribery Of
courts, is probably the most danger
ous factor in the control of public
affairs in all countries, with which we
now have to contend. By assuming
entire control both of the manufac-
ture and sale of liquors, this vast
force would be ''disorganlzed at once.
Its source of revenue would be cut off
and it could no longer maintain it's
vast instrumentallties of corruption.
The people could then deal with the
evils naturally growing out of the
drink habit without encountering the
opposition of 80 powerful an organ
ICED force.
We are somewhat surprised at one
question raised by our correspondent
He says he is retired minister and
he is evidently opposed to the entire
traffic. Notwithstanding this he says:
Your idea 10 to do away with the element
of profit" which you think is the main
stronghold Of the present system. Do you
mean by this that the manufacturer (which
under that system would be the govern
ment) as well as the seller, should be de-
prived Of all profit from the business2 If
not, then it would either throw another
small army Of people out Of employment,
the same as prohibition does, or else the
consumption must be vastly increased, for
without doubt, the government could carry
on the business with vastly fewer men than
are now employed.
We would ask our correspondent
in return If he would recommend the
continuance of the traffic under the
present system lest interference with
it would "throw another small army
of people out of employment| The
question under consideration relates
solely to the best method of dealing
with a recognized evil. If one of the
consequences of the adoption of any
method whatever should be ito throw
a small army of people out of en-
ployment" this cannot be urged as

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE

leesness in the business Of the government:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
OF THE UNITED STATES,
Washington, D. c., March 25, 1893.
DEAR SIR:-In reply to yours Of the oath
containing request for report OF the inVesti-
eating committee of congress relative to
Panama canal, etc., IbeR to say that only
about dozen copies of the testimony were
printed and that these, owing to the extreme
hurry attending the closing up OF the matter
pertaining TO che investigation, in some way
have mysteriously disappeared. Even mem
bers Of the committee are without the testi-
mony, and out Of the whole mass of matter
published, /, myself, have but few frsg-
mentary pages, and when called upon for
information in reference TO this investiga-
tion, my only recourse has been my short
hand notes. I have been informed also
that the type in the printing Office has been
distributed and the copy destroyed. ] re-
gret that such is the situation Of affairs and
that I cannot send you the printed report.
The above dispatch will cause a
broad smile to creep over the vlsage
of the well-informed reader who is
aware of this convenient method of
our public servants of preventing a
certain kind of public documents
from getting into the hands of the
people. There were some unpleasant
disclosures in the testimony above
referred to which reflected unfavor-
ably upon certain prominent Ameri-
can citizens, and it would hardly do
to have it published as public doc
ument, and get out among the peo-
pie. 1t might affect public sentiment
unfsvorably upon the question Of
that other canal scheme in which our
great statesmen are so much inter
ested just at this time; hence it was
very convenient to have it get lost.
This is not the only public docu-
ment that the people are unable to
obtain. 1t will be remembered that
the ADVOCATE recently published one
of these documents, which was a re-
port of an investigation of the books
of the treasury department. That
report cannot be obtained in the reg
ular way. The report of the none
tary commission is another of this
kind. Then there is Mr.. Blaine's
circular to our consuls in the several
states of South America relating to
the increase of the beer trade of the
United States in those countries, and
the consular reports IN response to
that circular. These can be supplied
to beer dealers, but when other citi-
zens of the United States apply for
them they are informed that the
supply IS exhausted.
There are a great many things that
our statesmen do not think it sdvan-
tageous for the masses of the people
to know. Accordingly our American
house of lords considers many of
these things in executive session."
where every senator Is placed under
an obligation of secrecy. Many things
that it would be dangerous for the
common herd to know are thus buried
in the secret archives of that august
body. Perhaps the masses Of the
