AT the instance of T.,,W. Hebron,

Thomas r. Walker, British vice

uprising are groundless. There is
perfect peace in the islands.
Mr.. Walker declares that the ma

as to what is just. He commends
Mr.. Blount for impartiality.
As for Honolulu, he says it is
practically an American city. He

United States would perhaps be
good solution of the Hawaiian
Problems. f. Chronicle, Oct. 10.

NOTES AND COMMENTS

The statement made here by
through passengers on the Mari
posa, who from their official posi-
ton and professional relations are
likely to be as well informed as to
the purposes Of the administration
at Washington as any one outside
OF the president and cabinet, and
much better informed than the
newspaper correspondents, offer no
comfort to the restorationists, not
withstanding the Bulletins vigor-

When the Daily Bulletin Pub
hshing Company was organized
lew years ago, government officials
were as thick as bees peddling
stock on the streets, and some of
the stock was sold upon the most
questionable representations. If
government officials are guilty Of
selling or Offering for sale Star
stock on the steets, they are simply
following the ordinary business
methods which were considered
Legitimate before the fall

The lame apology made by the
Bulletin of Saturday for the street
car line is certainly characteristic
of that journal. The street car SER
vice of Honolulu was not criticized
until it became a nuisance to the
travelling public. When it comes
to a matter of cleanliness the cars
of the Honolulu company are as
dirty as the dirtiest and " 20

When we send our orders

year from the time we would
sell you a lot of it, you'd
cease to be customer of ours
and for that reason we import
a quality that will lie of

Captain McDowell's effort to
float the Miowera has been a fail
ure. 1t is to be regretted. Cap
tain Mcdowell has expended sew
eral thousand dollars in prelim-
mary arrangements, and has no
doubt worked faithfully to float
the vessel. That he has failed has
not been the fault of the plans
adopted but rather the weakness of
the appliances used. A new con-

AT THE last election the Delaware
Republicans made the best showing of
any State in the Union. We believe
this has not been controverted. In
the last four elections the Democratic
majority has been constantly decreas-
ing. We have every reason to believe
that if the present ''blessed era" OF
prosperity continues that Delaware
will be redeemed, despite The desperate
efforts which will be made by our
Democratic friends. They might as
we'll take warning. The Republican
party is buckling on its armor for the
fight, and we may expect the hottest
fray ever known in Delaware politics.
Our people, like the people all over
the United States, are )t willing to be
by party which is SO COM
pletely overlhrowing the industrial in
terests, as has been proven since the
list election. Opposed TO industrial
and commercial growth; the Demo-
cratic party getting into power for the
first time in 30 years has struck its first
blow at these interests.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, July 81, IS93.-
Secretary Carlisle's friends would like
the public to believe that the Secretary
and Mr.. Cleveland are on the best Of
terms, but the known facts Indicate
directly the contrary. 1t is understood
here that Mr.. Cleveland's message to
Congress has been completed, and he
has at.no time since he called the extra
session consulted with Secretary Car
Isle, although there is every reason 10
suppose tha. the message is ntirely
devoted TO sulj,cts belonging to the
department over which Mr.. Carlisle
presides. One of Mr.. Carlisle's assist
ants was summoned to Gray Gables TO
furnish Mr.. Cleveland with desired
financial information but Mr.. Carlisle
did not go, although it would have
been just as easy for him to have gone
as it was for the Assistant Secretary to
go, but 1t was the Assistant Secretary,
and not Mr.. Carlisle who was invited.

TO lack of that confidence between
the two men which should exist be-
tween President and his Secretary Of

On last Monday wheat sold in

considerably less than it costs TO raise
It. This is panic price, and means
hard times, and if the present condi-

will 60 out Of the business. Such prices
will soon impoverish the farming COM

the whole population. for all forms of

THE American people are not such
fools as to believe that the present
financial depression is due to The
Sherman Act alone. If so, why was
it we lived for nearly three years under
the Act when the Republican party
was in power, and We heard not
tremor? And not until after the Sth
of last November were heard at all the
mutterings of the coming storm; be-
cause then, a Democratic President
and Congress was elected. The de-
preston began as soon as it was def
nitely settled that the Democratic
party had complete control of both the
Legislative. and Executive branches Of
our Government; and ever since the
most disastrous depression the country
has known for years has been
upon us. Can any reasonable man be.
lieve but that all this depression is
owing to the lack of confidence in the
Democratic Legislation II is nothing
m re nor less. The whole trouble of
the present situation is the lack of
confidence; and The fountain head of
This distrust is in Washington. Mr.. 4
Cleveland eonld bring relief within five
minutes should he announce that the
present Tariff system was to remain.
But the uncertainty which prevails to.
day arises from the fact that no one
under the sun knows what will be done
in Congress. Large manufacturing
interests are working on less than half
time, or closing up completely. While |
the Sherman Act may be an incident
in.the present depression it is not by any |
means the cause of all this trouble:
and any one knows that all the noise
raised by Mr.. Cleveland and the leaders
of the Democratic party is but the
smoke 10 cloud the minds of the
American people to the real cause of
all the trouble. Our people are grad
ually awaking to the fact, and the
sooner The better for their own good
and the good of the country.

CROPS IN THE WEST AND SOUTH.
TILE corn crnn in Missouri promises

CROPS IN THE WEST AND SOUTH.
THE corn crop in Missouri promises
to be one of the largest ever known in
the state. Hay will be heavy and
reports are favorable for fruit, espe-
cially in the southwestern part Of The
state. Tbe cotton and sugar crops of
Louisiana are in good condition. Rice
is being harvested, and an increase in
acreage makes an increase in the yield.
The fruit crop in California is said to
be enormous, and the grain which has
just been harvested is heavy. but the
farmers must lose on it from being
forced to sell at present prices. The
sugar beet crop is also very large. The
China beet factory is the largest in the
United States, and is said to furnish en-
ployment for over two thousand men,
night and day at this season, and it is
estimated that its output of refined
sugar will exceed 16, 100000 pounds.
In Southern Colorado hay will be
the only crop in many sections, because
Of the unusually dry season, but the
northern part of the state farts better.
Still the agricultural yield throughout
the state shows a decided falling off
over last year. Recent rains in Ne
braska have put new face on the
agricultural outlook, and the chances
now are for fair corn crop.
The yield of wheat in Minnesota and
the DakCtas is now estimated at
100, ,0O0, 900 bushels, which is 25.O0O, 600
bushels less than last year.
The prospects in Georgia are regard
ed as fair, the cotton crop coed, and
corn sufficient to feed the state. The
Arkansas cotton crop promises to be
first-class, as also does that of Missis-
sippi.

BEFORE the election the Mckinley
bill was the scapegoat. 1t was the
cause of all the ills and evils that were
upon us. But what marvellous
change. To-day it is the Sherman
Act. For complete somersau,ts and
magic transformation the Democratic
party takes the lead. Always ready
with an excuse; always on hand with a
scapegoat in the shape of something
that the Republican party has or has
not done, to which to attribute all the
different species of trouble. 1t declares
the Sherman Silver Purchase Act over
the cause of the present financial de-
preston. 1t seems very strange that
our Democratic friends cannot work in
little Mckinley bill; but the trouble
here is that they are treading OH dam
gerous ground. The Tariff, to the
Democratic party is like the finest cut
glass, al least judging from the manner
in which they handle it. There is no
doubt the Democratic party has come
to realize that the Tariff is not such
al awful bugbear as they painted it;
or it would not have been necessary
for an extra session of Congress to
have been called on the fourth of
March that the former Tariff laws
might be repealed. The question nat
urally arises, why was not this extra
session ca led, and why does Cleveland
and his Democratic Congress permit
us to still suffer (?) under the burden
some l?) Mckinley Bill? All the hue
and cry they raised last fall about the
Tariff was simply a platform upon
which to get in, but not to ride upon.

How do our Democratic friends
relish the present price Of grainp Be-
fore the election last fall Democratic
writers and newspapers glibly promised
a dollar and dollar and uarter for
wheat, and yet this week it has touched
81 cents. Granting that it was low under
Republican Administration, what is it
now under the present. OF course it is
all owing to the Sherman Act.
