MI. Blonnt,s Renort.

Those who have read Mr.. Blounts re-
/ port cannot doubt that the Hawaiian
/ monarchy was overthrow and the pro
/ visionaI government established by few
men who had the support of United
/ States Minister Stevens and the United
\ States marines. Nothing is clearer than
/ that the revolution was undertaken and
+ carried to success with the understanding
that the United States minister was in
/ sympathy with the movement and would
I give it every assistance he could.
( The men who inaugurated the revolu-
1 ton were few in number, and they did
not attempt to carry into effect their
! purpose until they had assurances that
their government would be recognized as
soon as they took possession Of the gov
eminent building. In fact, they did vir-
tually nothing until the United States
marines, with gatling guns, were landed
and so stationed as 10 intimidate the sup
pOrters of the queen.
The swiftness with which the pro-
visiOnal government was recognized is
in itself enough to convince anyone that
Minister Stevens had been informed be-
fOrehand of what was about to take
placetand had agreed to play an impor-
tant part in the little drama. The bar
racks and station house had not been
given up by the queen when the an
nOuncement was made that the United
States, through its minister, had recOg-
nized the new government. Indeed, the
part which the United States minister
took in the affair was used to induce the
queen to yield without a struggle.
Whether or not the queen is an i'm
moral woman and unfit to reign is not the
question at issue. The simple question is
this: Did the people of Hawaii depose
their queen and set up a new government,
or did a few conspirators, with the aid of
the United States minister, who had
force of United States marines athis com
mand, overthrow the monarchy and set
up a government of their own? If
what Mr.. Blount says is true, it is evil
dent that the great body of the people not
only had nothing to do with the matter,
but knew nothing about it until the revo-
luton was accomplished. A few men
and the United States minister inaug-
uarted and carried the revolution to sue
cess.
Under the circumstances what is the
dutypf our government? Can it afford to
sanction the wrong that was done in
Hawaii with the view of gaining some ad-
vantages for this country} If it should
approve what was done with its assist
ance, would it not deprive itself of the
right of protesting if a European power
should assist in overthrowing one
of the South American governments and
establishing government to suit itself,
with the view of extending its territorial
possessions2
The people of this country, if they &C
cept MIR. Blount's report, cannot do other
wise than sustain the position taken by
the President and his cabinet. The only
way to create sentiment against that
position is to show that Mr.. Blount's re
port is not correct; and it does not seem
as if it were possible to do that.

Charles H. ]. Taylor, the black Kansan
who may or may not be minister to 30
livia, is the author of an original but I'M
acceptable scheme TO prevent lynchings.
Taylor's idea, which has been embodied
in bill to be presented to congress at the
coming sessiou-which bill, by the wav.
will never get out of the committee room
is to make the counties in which
lynchings occur pay a cash sum for homi-
eide. He fixes the value of the subject of
alynching at $4,000, and would have that
amount paid to the subjects family. The
fact that the lynching occurred should
he thinks, be all the evidence required to
mulct the county in the sum named. If
such law as that were, by any chance,
to get on the statute books the probabiU-
ties are that the lynching industry would
boom like land scheme and there would
soon be numerous wealthy colored fami-
lies. Ten thousand dollars is quite a
tempting sum of money.

Secretary Carlisle,s Address.


In his address before the chamber of
commerce of New York last night, full
report of which is published in our dis
patches, Secretary Carlisle stated very
clearly and fully his position in respect to
silver. In his opinion the silver question
was settled at the extra session of con-
gress for a long time to come. The result
of the discussion a that time was to con-
vince the great majority of the people
that we cannot have our fair share of the
worlds commerce unless we have money
that is good enough for use in every mar
ket in which our people trade We might
have two kinds Of money, one for do
nestle use and the other to use in foreign
markets, but why should not our own
people have just as good money as
there is
The government cannot create money.
If it should attempt to do so it would
bring about financial disaster. 1t cannot
make 80 cents worth Of silver pass for
dollar in the markets of the world, and it
cannot do so in the home market beyond
a certain limit.
The secretary believes that we have as
much silver as we have any need for at
present, and all we can safely use. We
may be able TO use more as the country
increases in wealth and population. That
question, however, will be determined by
future conditions.
The way the secretary deals with
bimetallism and double standard is in
teresting. He says he has never been able
to understand what is meant by a double
standard nor has he found any one who
could tell him. He say: "If there
were two standards, or meas
ures, not equal in value, it is evident
that one of them must be a false measure;
and if they were of equal value, it is evil
dent that, no matter what the law might
declare, there would be, in fact, but one
measure, although composed of two diff
ferent kinds of material. If, for instance,
the silver dollar and the gold dollar were
of precisely the same value and could be
so kept at all times, there would be, in
fact, but one standard, one unit for the
measurement of values"
The secretary does not think there will
be any disposition to lessen the use of
silver as currency. On the contrary, be-
ing the greatest silver producing country
in the world, the United States will al
ways be interested in any measure in
tended to enhance its value and increase
its use as money upon a safe and sound
basis" but he is satisfied that the United
States alone cannot maintain its unlim-
tied coinage as full legal tender, in oppo-
sition to the policies of the other great
nations" In substance, the secretary
says the only basis upon which this coun-
try can safely enter upon the free and
unlimited coinage of silver is that of en-
international agreement, and those who
understand the silver question will admit
that he is right. There will be a great
deal more talk about the free coinage of
silver in and out of congress, but nothing
will come of it. The policy of this coun-
try is fixed for sound money.

At a reception to Senator Teller at Den

remarks; "Our friends in the east, many
of them, believed we men of Colorado

if not destroyed. Nothing is less true.
We have great state with great posi-
bilities before us. Coal, iron, soil, cop

that the words " convict made shall be

Martin desire to discriminate against
china nest eggs, baseballs, wheels and
all of those other manufactured articles

Gov. Fishback, of Arkansas, is reported
as having said in the course Of an address
before the Commercial Club, Of st. Louis.
the other day: Mr.. Cleveland has made
himself unpopular in the south. He has
ignored and in some cases openly opposed
senators, and if he persisted in his course
he viii find it very warm work before his
term closes. The south and west have
done with eastern Presidents. 1t is
rather novel stand TO take. that the
President must not oppose senators. The
governor, Of course, had democratic seua-
tors IN mind. But there is no reason WHY
the President should not oppose demo-
cratic senator's when he is convinced that

A test was recently made near Selma,
Ala, of what is consid cred to be the
most perfect machine yet invented for
picking cotton. y report of the test
printed in Selma paper says that the
power required to drag the machine in
the field and the defects in the gathering
apparatus prevent the invention from be-
ing either economical or efficient. 1t is,
however, an improvement upon machines
heretofore devised for a like purpose.
and there is good reason to hope that
some day not distant the iron cotton
picker will be an actuality."

If Bounties Must Be Paid.

From the St. Louis Republic (Dem,).
Democrats know that more people in Texas
are interested in cheap wool than in dear
wool. More eat rice in South Carolina than
grow rice. More buy iron in Alabama than
make iron. But if the people Of Texas, Ala

taxes they would rather pay theLl to neigh
bors than to New England and Pennsylvania
