READS VERY NICELY.
Hawaii'S Original Constitution
Translated.
Documents Dug Up by a Professor,
Who Will Send Them to
Uncle Sam.

NEW YoRK, Dec. 17.-Probaby the only
copy of the original constitution of Ha-
waii is in possession of Professor w. II. b.
Thomas of Philadelphia. Inasmuch as
some Hawaiian documents seem TO sustain
the position taken BY President Cleveland
in the Sandwich Islands controversy, Pro-
fessor Thomas is about 10 offer transcripts
of the original to the United States Gov
erDment. The documents were prin ted
for the benefit of the natives nearly half a
century ago in the Hawaiian language and
afterward translated into English. but
copies never have been published in this
country.
''The declaration of rights. both of the
people and their chiefs" as the Hawaiian
constitution is called, was origin ally drawn
up by graduate of the seminary at La
haialuna. This declaration was afterward
revised by the King and council of three
chiefs. The constitution shows the mis-
sionary training of the Hawaiian people.
and there certainly is no reason for the
objection that God is not recognized, for
the declaration starts off with Scriptural
text. and is extremely pious and Biblical
throughout. The portion calculated to
sustain President Cleveland in his Ha-
wsiian policy is presumably that which
recites The royal line from the first to the
third Kamehameha. and then says:
"The kingdom is permanently confined
to Kamehameha III and his heirs. and his
heir shall be person whom he and the
chiefs shall appoint during his life time,
but should there be no appointment then
the decision shall rest with the chiefs and
the House of Representatives"
This constitution was signed Octo Der s,
1910, at Honolulu. by King Kamehameha
LII and his Prime Minister.

MONETARY LEGISLATION.
Valuable Suggestions Made to the
Currency Committee.

Currency committee.
WASHINGTON, Dec. IL. - The House
Committee on Banking and Currency has
received a large number of replies to the
invitation for suggestions from business
men as to the wisest monetary legislation
to meet the present demands. Ex-Sen ator
Charles B. Farwell of Chicago writes: THE
Government ought long ago to have gone
out of the currency business. 1t should
pay the floating debt at once by the issue
OF long, low-rate bonds, to be used by the
national banks at face value. as the basis
of circulating notes"
The Clearing house Association of Se-
attic, through 81. w. Wheeler, president of
the Commercial Bank, and j. l.. Elliott,
president of the First National Bank of
Los Angeles. offer suggestions as to an
amendment of the national banking laws.
The Chamber of Commerce of San Fran
cisco affirms the advantage of bimeta llism
on proper differential basis in values of
silver and gold, and adopts the following
resolutions, which are transmitted 10 the
com mittee:
"ReSOlUed, This chamber respectfully
urges upon Congress the enactment of
law calling in all paper circulation below
the denomination of $40. and that the coin
age of gold be restricted to coins of not
less than $40. as the most effective and
prompt methods of promoting the cIrcula-
tion of silver among our people. We also
recommend changing the national bank act
so it will permit note circulation equal
to the par value of Government bonds,
hypothecated to secure such circulation"
