TINT tho refined sugar is also sold for loss.
Quito tho contrary. The consumer OF sugar on
the Pacific coast has to pay from haii cont
TO n cent moro for his sugar than the cost TO
the consumer In tho East.
It is thus apparent that Spreckela. as
sugar rellncr. Is pretty well hxeu. no
buys below tho market and he sells ABOVE tne
market Therefore he can well afford to lose q

But what has this to do with annexation

the Hawaiian Islands. all raw sugar grown

try. But refined sugar IL not
II tho Hawaiian Islands were annexed 10
the United States, then the sugar Planters
who control more than hall Of the entire out
put OF sugar grown on the islands, could and
would build their own refinery at Honolulu.
THOR refined sugar would be admitted into
the San Francisco market and nil along the
Pacific coast free OF duty: and 1t could and
would be sold in direct competition with
the sugar refined by Sprockels and tho
Sugar Trust There would then be no
monopoly Of tho sugar trade on the Pacific
coast 1t would be IA godsend to the consum-
ois. but 1t would kill tho monopoly OF Claus
Sprcckels and tho Sugar Trust. 1t would
place the Hawaiian planters beyond the reach
OF Sprcckels. They would not be subject
to his terms and dctations hut they would have
an opportunity to rcalizs the full market value
for thoir product. without any quarter or half
cont rebate.
IT would create opposition to the monopo-
listic business OF Spreckels and his asso-
catc the Sugar Trust: and this lie why
Spreckcls should DO opnosed to annexation.
All Of these facts will no doubt be- clearly
placed before the President and Congress by
Minister Blount but The Sun is the first to
put the points thus clearly. that there may be
no misconcep.ion on tho part OF the people.
The Sun has not been led away from the |
path Of upright journalism in the interest Of |
any monopolst or Of any trust THE Sun has |
not been entertained or f6ted at Spreokels- |

simply followed it's usual course OF doing Its |
duty BY the public. 1t has not been fooled |

| Political harmony is an elusive ingredient
| for n party distracted by defeat: and the
search for it, II intended to be successful
| should never be intrustcd to an amateur
| statesman. An Illustration Of this truth Is
furnished by the case OF Republican State

they began with the foundation OF tho Re-
publican party. and in 1872 their vchemence
took HIsCoCK. ALvoRD. CoRBETT. and other
Republican magnntes into tho Democratic
camp. In fact. the nomination Of Mr.. HEN
bricks as Collector of the Port of New York
in 1891 was tho last official effort of a Re-
publican Administration to compose them.
1t was under these circumstances that the

Republican newspapers havo let their
sense OF partisanship get the better OF their
sense OF patriotism. and have insisted that
tho contraction Of the currency and the de-

The intimation or assertion OF snch m

1t was accepted and confirmed by the people
of the United States last November. Then

Mr.. Lecky on Homo Rule.

The latest Of the articles contributed by
eminent writer's to the London Pail Nal
Ga-ette on what is termed the case against
home rule is from the pen OF the well-known
| historian, Mr. w. T.. II. LECKY. The author
compares the form OF home rule proposed
| by Mr.. GLADSTONE with that which existed
In Ireland between 1852 and the passage OF
the Act OF Union. his conclusion being that
the latter system was. for several reasons.
more worthy Of approval. The very
| grounds. however. on which no holds up
the present scheme to the reprobation of
the Unionists ought to powerfully com
mend it to patriotic Irishmen on both sides
| OF the Atlantic
In the first place. Mr.. LECKY points out
that GRATTAN's Parliament. as it is the
fashion to call the Dublin legislature after
| the repeal Of PoYSING's act had freed it
from Its shackles. was comparatively harm
less from Unionist point Of view because
1t was wholly in the hands Of the English
garrison in Ireland. When, in 1882, it ceased
merely To register and echo tho will OF q
British Minister only tho Protestant loval-
lists were eligible to the Dublin House of
Commons. or possessed the Parliamentary
franchise. Such n scheme Of local govern
ment answered but a part OF the definition
Of home rule. which implies that national
legislature not only shall be indie
pendent OF any outside dictation, but
shall be truly representative. In GRATTAN's
Parliament the Catholics. who constituted
a great majority OF the Irish people. were
not represented at all. They probably would
have acquired full political rights by sue
cessive concessions had the Dublin Parlia-
ment continued to exist. But the process
OF Catholic emancipation would have been
slow one. and WAS far from being accom-
plished when the Act OF Union was passed.
GRATTAN's Parliament. therefore, ut the
time when 1t meets with comparative ap-
prevail from Mr.. LECKY. was sham and
mockery. SO far as tho Catholic majority
were concerned. For them it meant home
rule only In the sense that 1t kept the great
body OF Irish tenantry more completely
under the thumbs OF their landlords than a
British Parliament would keep them and
that was the reason why many intelligent
Irish Catholics. including part OF the
hierarchy. deliberately preferred to witness
the abolition OF the Dublin legislature.
For Mr.. LECKY to pronounce GRATTAE's
Parliament q better and safer type of homo
rule than that devised by Mr.. GLADSTONE,
Is tantamount to saying that Irish Catho-
lies ought to take no part in an Irish legis-
lative assembly. although they outnumber
their Protestant fellow countrymen three TO
one. That such conclusion can - 71Hariv
