THE NATIVE PRESS.
Sparks from the Native Version

Commissioner Blount is going to
go around among you native Ha-
waiians, to ask you your ideas
about your mother country. And
do not forget while you are about
it to give few presents Hookupu)
a few eggs, chickens, and so forth.
In giving an account of an inter-
view of its secretary with Commits
sioner Blount, in which the Com
missioner is made to say everything
of course favorable to the Royalist
cause, the article reads "The
great gift given to the Holomua was
his order to have that paper put on
his table every day, on account of
his great wish to see a genuine
native newspaper, and that he
would in a few days give some
startling news.
The English version of the Holo-
mua says there were 2O00 people at
the Palace Square meeting; the
native version of the same paper
sets the number at 5000.
One of the native papers says
that when Commissioner Blount
saw the native women down on the
wharf with their flags he was so
affected by the patriotic demon
stration that he turned and shed a
silent tear.

CARTER AND KAIULANT.

The Commissioner Meets the
Princess at Reception.
The S. F. Examiner of a late
date has the following:
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The
waiian Commissioners have re-
signed themselves to wait for the
report of Mr.. Blount. They have
made no attempt to see the Presi-
dent and do not expect to accom-
plish anything until the envoy re-
turns.
Commissioner Carter met Prin-
cess Kaiulani at the Arlington re-
ceptien last night and as he had
known her in the past he spoke to
her. She answered him amicably
and they were getting along
charmingly when Guardian Davies
observed the encounter and hastily
steered another man up to sup
plant Carter. Mr.. Davies does not
allow the Princess to see the An
nexation Commissioners, or have
any communication with them.
He is afraid they might undertake
to show her that she is not promot-
ing her own interests in coming here
and fighting against settlement
that gives her $l50,000 in cash in
exchange for a contingent claim to
power that might never have
amounted to anything even if there
had been no revolution.
Mr.. Sewell, formerly of Honolu-
lu, was in the Commissioners rooms
this evening. He says he saw the
crisis coming ten years ago on ac-
count of the mad course the King
was bent on following. The root
of the difficulty, Mr.. Sewell thinks,
lies in the fact that the late dynasty
was not of the blood of the old
chiefs. Kalakaua originally beat
Queen Emma, who was of royal
blood, by bribing the members OF
the Legislature, and the natives
were so infuriated that his life and
throne were saved only by the
backing of American marines.
Then to strengthen his position
with the natives Kalakaua re-
vived the old pagan superstitions.
This has continued under Liliuo-
kalani, and it is this, in Mr.. Sew
ellis opinion, as much as the cor
ruption and treachery of the Gov
eminent, that drove the whites to
revolt.

A NEW REyENUE sYsTEDI.

1t is possible for us to devise re-
venue system which could be made per-
manent and which could provide for
the necessities of the government, shift
as they are, without disturbance of val
ues and business. The trouble with any
scheme of this sort is that the expendi-
lures of the government vary from
year to year, and still more uncertain
is the revenue which any given tariff
law will produce. The worlds trade
changes so materially in a few years
that a tariff that should yield enough
revenue in 1894 might not yield enough
within many millions in 1896, or might
go to the other extreme and produce
an enormous surplus. There is plan
which will obviate this difficulty. It is
to raise one-half the revenues which it
is estimated it will need, say, for 10
years ahead from customs duties, and
one-half of the remainder, or one-fourth
of the whole, from internal. revenue
taxes. The final fourth should be raised
by.a tax upon incomes.
ues of materials, commodities or pro-
ducts in any way, should be made the
governor, the regulator, from year to
year. If the revenues in a given year
are not sufficient for the needs of the
government, let congress add a small
percentage to the income tax, just en-
nough to make up the deficiency. If
the revenues are too large, reduce the
income tax in sufficient proportions to
maintain the revenues at par with the
expenditures. We. can raise S5O,O00,OO0
or S1OO,OOO,OOO or S200,O0O,OO0 in this
country from an income tax, and the
burden will be so small that but few
individuals will feel it at all. 1t falls
heaviest upon those who are most able
to bear it. The beauty of the plan is
that it would place in the hands of con-
gress means of regulating the govern
ment's income, year after year, without
requiring the duties upon imports or
the taxes upon articles of domestic
manufacture to be touched at all. The
raising and lowering of the income tax
would disturb no values, disarrange no
business plans, and put stop to the
incessant talk that tariff tinkering is
ruinous to the country. There is no
new theory in this plan. tits only an
adaptation of the English system, and
although the American people are not
admirers of the English, as rule, they
are willing to learn wherever they can.
This system would surely be more
scientific and satisfactory than the one
which has been followed for so many
years, and which seems to make it ne
cessary to have a new tariff law about
once in four years.

HOW THE FARMER TALKS.

The goldbugs and their allies make a
big mistake if they suppose that their
talk about sound money converts the
farmers to gold recommendation.
The farmers waste no time in discus
sing details and minor points. They
take the broad position that they were
prosperous in 1866 when we had s52
per capita in circulation, and that they
are not prospecting now with only $50
per capita, and four-fifths of that CON
gested in the east.
The farmers say that the value of an
acres product of cotton in 1866 was
S28.O1, and that now it is only S1O.65.
Other farm products have declined in
about the same proportion, and the
fall in prices has occurred since the
demonetization of silver in 1873.
The farmers are aware of the fact
that their income this year is 81, 500
100000 less than it was in 1870, and
they are not slow to place the blame
where it belongs. They know very well
that currency contraction lowers prices
and benefits nobody but the creditor
class.
It is plain enough to the farmers
that under the present financial sys-
tenn they get only about the cost of
production for their crops and labor
er's wages. They make a bare living.
Naturally, this state of affairs is hurt
ing the merchants, and manufacturers
suffer When the farmers are hard up
they buy less at the stores, and the
merchants, in consequence, order small
Ter lots from the manufacturers. When
100000 people living in the farming
districts per cent of our populati-
on-have their purchasing power so
tremendously diminished, the manu-
facturers and merchants sell fewer
goods, and many of them have to sus-
pend business, as was the case during
the past spring and summer.
With these facts before them the
farmers answer to the monometallists
is not very elaborate or argumentative.
They simply say, eve know what your
policy has done for Us in the past 20
years. It has made our products go
lower and lover every year, until orr
The Goodland republic. [volume] (Goodland, Kan.) 1891-1907, 1893-12-22

loss this year amounts to 81 SOC, 100000.
We know that your policy makes the
creditor class In the east rich and
makes US poorer. The instinct of self
preservation makes it necessary for us
to fight the characterization of silver
and all other modes of contracting the
currencyf"
This is the way the farmers talk and
they mean business. They believe that
the country needs more money and
they are going to work for it and vote
for it until they get it. These people
are not fools. They cannot be persua-
ded that they are more prosperous and
happy with S25 per capita than they
were with So per capita. In order to
prove to them that the contraction of
the currency has helped industry and
commerce, you will have to show them
that man can walk better after he
loses one of his legs. The idea is that
we need double standard. of money
just as much as man needs a double
standard of locomotion.
The farmers are on the right line.
They have been thinking and figuring,
and all the goldbug pamphlets in the
world will never change their views

FREE SEED DIsrRIBUTIoN.

From small beginning over half
century ago, free seed distribution by
the department of agriculture has
grown to business of large proporti-
ons. Last year congress appropriated
s135, 400 for the purchase and free dis
tribution of seeds, bulbs, plants and
cuttings.
In 1892 the department sent out, in
more than nine million packages, en-
ough vegetable and flower seed to plant
nearly ninety thousand acres of land.
Secretary Morton proposes to carry
out a recommendation that has often
been made, and abolish the gratitous
distribution of seed by the department
of agriculture. In his annual rapport
he says: 'This enormous expenditure,
without compensatory benefits, ought
to be abolished. Therefore, looking to
its final abolition, more than 100000
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1885,
for this purpose, and the $4,000 esti-
mate ought to be confined strictly to
the purchase of new and improved va
rieties, and even these ought to be dis
tributed only through experiment
stations. Thus seed will be tested and
found valuable or otherwise. After
the test has been completed by the ex-
pertinent station, the propagation of
the useful varieties and the rejection
of the valueless should be left to the
common sense of the people, who will
have been informed as to local value
and adaptability by the experiment
station bulletins. An experiment is
merely test. There can be no expert
ment in perpetuity, and this illustrates
the fallacy of purchasing and distribu-
ting, year after year, the ordinary va
rieties of turnip, cabbage, celery and
other seeds''

A POSTAL REFORM.

Congressman Dockery, chairman of
the joint comission to investigate de-
partmental workings, has introduced
bill for reference to the commission
which is the result of the Investigate
ons which have been made by the COM
mission. The bill is approved by the
postmaster general, and should it be
favorably considered by the joint COM
mission will doubtless become law at
a very early date.
The bill abolishes the postal note
and in lieu thereof authorizes the post
master general to designate certain
postoff1ces to issue money orders for a
sum less than s.. The bill also changes
the present schedule of fees for the is
sue of money orders very materially,
reducing them to the rates now charg
ed by the express companies. Under
the present schedule the express COM
panies have been doing a profitable
business, which arises from the sale of
larger orders, and have been generous
ly permitting the government to do
the business of issuing small notes,
which is done at a loss. The new sched-
ule is a harmonious and consistent one
and will result in large increase of
profitable business to the government.
The bill also provides for a speedy
accounting of all outstanding unpaid
money orders and postal notes more
than II months old. The result of
this provision Will be to turn into the
treasury for the use of the postoffice
department about 100000 of money
lying idle and inactive in the subtreas-
ury in New York. The bill also repeats
that action of the statute which re-
quires applicants for money orders to
fill out printed blank, and in several
of its sections provides for reorgani-
cation of the business methods of the
postofice department so as to secure a
speedy adjustment of the accounts of
ali postmasters, both presidential and
fourth class.
This bill, in connection with other
recommendation which viii probably
be made very soon by the commission,
will result ia very large annual re-
duction of expenditures in the post
Office department while at the same
time increase its efficiency.

NEW TARIFF BILL SUMMARIZED.

The bill just completed puts wool,
coal, lumber, salt and iron ore on the
free list, and reduces the tariff on
sugar from 3 to n of a cent per pound;
it also provides for the determination
of the bounty by degrees. AS a rule
the tariff has been made lowest upon
the cheaper goods of necessary use and
left highest upon the more expensive
articles. The wool schedule will, per
haps, attract most attention. They have
left no duty higher than 45 per cent
on manufacturers of wool, and that
only on ready made garments, the
average being less than 45 per cent.
The cheaper qualities of blankets and
fannels are only taxed % per cent, and
the lower grades of carpets only 20.
They have also applied gradual re-
duction to the wooden schedule, so
that at the end of five years the high
est duty will be 40 and the average
near 30 per cent. Very material re-
auctions have been made on the cot
ton schedule. They have placed iron
ore on the free list, and made large
cut all along the metal schedule. The
duty on steel rails is reduced more
than 80 per cent. Free lumber will be
great benefit to the people of the
prairie states, and free salt will give to
those who need salt for their cattle or
for curing meat the same advantage
which has been secured heretofore by
means of rebate to those who have
cured fish. Agricultural implements
have been placed upon the free list in
order to enable the farmer to better
compete in foreign markets and be-
cause many of our agricultural nipple
ments are being sold abroad today
cheaper than at home.

Why the manufacturers of the east

be that they utterly fail to comprehend
