Hawaii. New Commissioner.

Honolulu. July 28.-Proi William De Witt
Alexander. who goes to Washington as special
Commissioner from tho provisional Govern
mont OF Hawaii to cooperate with MIN
lister Thurston In tho interests OF an
nexation. is q man Of ripe years. thorough
education. and wide experience. His selection
for this service shows not only the regard IN
which he 10 held at homo. but also the appre-
citation on the part OF the present Hawaiian
Government Of the finer and higher elements
In political and international dealing.
Prof Alexander Is OF Kentucky descent and
OF Hawaiian birth. son ofthe Rev.W p Alex
ander. who was an American missionary OF
rare attachments. He is graduate OF Yale. OF
the class OF 1855. ranking high rs scholar.
His fret public service was In Oahu College. mt
Punahou, the leading institution in Hawaii.
where he remained over ten years. first as
teacher OF the classics and subsequently as
principal. While there he prepared
Hawaiian grammar. and also quite telling

1870. DR.. Hutchinson. then Minister Of Interior
ander Surveyor General. which position be
has held ever since.
=. Inc bureau was entirely new ono, ana from
the double nature OF its duties. pertaining both
tolanded properties and titles. and to, scien,
titc services. has demanded a great deal OF
study. Through its head 1t has been In con-
slant communication, with scientific men
abroad. It has derived from them methods
OF work. and has won respect. Prof:
Alexander. besides performing large part OF
the triangulation. has co0perated with mon
sent here from abroad. notably Mr. Preston OF
the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey.
In 1884, as Hawaiian Commissioner, he at
tended the Meridian Conference at Washing
ton for the esta blishment Of a prime meridian
for nautica and astronomical purposes His
researches in Hawaiian land titles have been
Of paramount use to the Government at Homo
lulu.
In late years, as Vice. President OF the Board
OF Education. Mr.. Alexander has rendered
service OF 5 different character. He has also
performed very important work. namely. the
preparation and publication OF history OF the
Hawaiian Islands. which Is a model OF con-
else and accurate statement, and cost an i'm
mense amount OF careful study Of old records.
The preparation of 1t has fitted Mr.. Alexander
IN an eminent degree for his present duties.
50 also has his position in the former Privy
Council Of Hawaii
MIR. Alexander Is q political student. and
conservative. He was not quick to reach out
after annexation. but when the time came
he grasped the merits Of the situation imme-
diately. and Is thoroughly in earnest and sim
cere IN his convictions that 1t is the best In

The Need of Revenue Tariff.

The Treasury statement Of receipts and
expenditures for the month OF July shows
receipts 10 the amount OF S30.9O5.7TG.19 and
expenditures to the amount OF $50, G7j. SIS. 80.
For the month OF July tho Government
lived beyond its income TO the extent OF
Ss,77O.l1241. As compared with the figures
for July. 1899. the income showed decrease
OF 81. 4Os. j55.o6. and the expenses an increase
OF 1891 .9l2OG.
Tho decrease in income is due to the fall
ing of in imports: the increase in expenses
Is duo to the Billion Congress.
The Democratic party has thus a new
call to put into effect the economic policy
to which II hns pledged itself, and to set up
o tariff for revenue only and limited to the
expenses OF the Government economically
administered. A decrease of expense In so
far rs it is possible. is part OF the Demo-
cratic plan: and in view OF the appropra-
ton bills consented to by the Democrats In
tho last House. it Is the most difficult part
OF the plan. To mako tariff for revenue
only. on the other hand. is perfectly simple.
The decrease in the Custom House receipts
may have its indirect advantage. 1t may
hasten tho performance OF tho Democratic
promise OF n tariff for revenue only. At
any rate. the monthly deficiency Is direct
notice that revenue should be provided. and
tariff made which provides for revenue,
and nothing but revenue. That can most
conveniently be done by n horizontal ad
valorem duty OF 25 or 80 per cent upon all
articles iinported

True Blue.

Among persons having homely notions OF
utility the expression to kill two birds
with one stone expresses O tribute to su-
perior dexterity precision. and economy in
the employment Of natural forces. This Is
the aim Of the inventor. the study Of the
philosopher. and the distinction of the navi-
gator. tho chemist. the electrician. the en-
gineer. the bridge builder. and the miller.
The Buckeye Democrats killed. two Re-
publican birds with one stone in Cincinnati
on Thursday. They nominated LARRY
NEAL for Governor. as was foreshadowed
In our columns two months ago. and they
strengthened the hands Of their represen-
tative In the United States Senate. CALVIN
STEWART BR1CE. by the formal and positive
statement following. in their platform Of
principles and pledges:
"Ths Democratic party expresses its confidence in
the ability of the Hon. CALVIN BRcE Of the United
States Senate to materially assist the Democratic
jory in the Congress of the United States 20 extr
cate the great commercial interests of this country
from their present distressed condition."
Tho Democrats Of Ohio stand by their
Senator. They believe in him and they
have confidence in his ability to help in ex-
Treating the commercial interests Of the
country from their present distressed con.
dition. They are with him. to use phrase
which has tho sanction OF political tradi-
ton. by a large majority. Thus the dele
gates to the Cincinnati Convention showed
on Thursday that their heads We're level.
They showed 1t also by nominating for
Governor a candidate who will not apollo
gize for his platform. LAWRENCE T. NEAL
Is that man. He wrote the plank in the
Democratic national platform which put to
final rout the advocates OF a discriminate
ing and fostering protective tariff; he car
ried it through and had 1t adopted: he stood
by it afterward. without any weakness at
the knees: he defended it upon the stump.
and he had tho pleasure Of seeing one Of
Ohios electoral votes cast for GROVER
CLEVELAND and ADLAI STEVENSON. the first
Democratic nominees for President and
Vice-President to be 80 honored from Ohio
since FRANKLIN PIERCE carried the Buckeye
State against WINFIELD SCOTT. 1t was this
Democratic elector. JAMES P. SEWARD. who
placed LAWRENCE NEAL in nomination for
Governor on Thursday.
The Democrats Of Ohio are evidently true
blues. They believe In the efficacy OF the
campaign cry. "The man and the ISSUE"
NEAL 10 the man; q tariff for revenue only
is the issue. They did not forget SEWARD.
the isolated elector. They did not forget
BRICE. the Democratic Senator. Both were
right In line: the former to be listened to.
the latter to be commended. The willing
ness Of Democrats everywhere to stand by
their principles and their Senators is one Of
the most reassurlng conditions ofAmcrican
politics at this time.

1ti natural to be impatient at any delay
In the matter Of the repeal OF the SHERMAN
act. and we doubt IL Mr.. BLAND and his
friends will be wise to try and saddle repeal
with new propositions for silver coinage.
The bill which Mr.. BLAND denounced upon
the day OF its passage In the House, as "a
murder OF silver" has so proved. 1t has no
friends. and In view Of the urgent general
demand for Its repeal. the silver men will
be polite to yield to the demand gracefully.
1t is proper to say, however. that the Ian
guage used by both the Republican and
Democratic platforms in 1892. In regard to
silver. was undoubtedly an appeal to
the silver mon; and consequently
any proposition that they may make In
good faith and may support temperate
ly. ought to be heard with patience
and attention. The conditions have
changed since 1892. and the hope. long tenu-
GUS. of any international agreement In
regard to silver. seems now forlorn indeed: :
but what Democrats and Republicans be-
lieyed In 1892 must not be forgotten in
estimating the position OF the silver men In
1898; and by the silver men we mean not so
much those who are tho advocates OF the sill
ver-prod rciDg States. as the lerge number.

hard names 10 express his contempt for
their timidity and namby-pambyism. II
they were out Of the way. he thinks litera-
ture would be better of.
Mr.. EUGENE FIELD Is man OF delight
full and various genius. and his critical
faculty is deserving OF high respect
Hence we hesitate to condemn his judy
ment Of Eastern authorship. without care
full consideration. He lie speaking OF the
authors whose names have been kept con-
spicuously before the public as the literary
leaders hereabouts, and whose fame Is re-
vered In the Authors Club. 1t cannot be
truthfully denied that some OF them are
open to the charge OF feebleness which he
brings against them. The contribution to
permanent literature made by the whole
crowd Is probably small; and many OF
them are still banking on a reputation
easily won at less critical period. At
best. little of the present production Is
notable. 1t Is not up to the literary and
Intellectual average OF very much OF the
reporting OF The Sun; and the same may
be said OF most OF the contents OF the
magazines. intellectual vigor does not
often appear among those writer's. They
seem to be afraid OF each other. afraid that
they will be sat upon by their fellows II they
write naturally. without nffectation. and
honestly. Thus they miss individuality Of
style. and lack spontaneity. They are more
or less the literary humbugs that Mr..
EUGENE FIELD calls them.
He leaves out Of consideration. however.
strong force Of writer's. who, fortu-
nately for their literary expression. are
outside Of this feeble body and beyond their
influence. The newspapers Of this period
are absorbing the best OF our youthful
literary and intellectual capacity. Against
these fellows OF vigorous and healthful
minds Mr.. FIELDS contemptuous criticism
cannot DO directed. They are the salt
which savors the literature Of the day
and preserves it from decay. Neither are
they materially poor and miserable. They
are all we'll fed. well clad. and well set up.

Ethics In SnrinRfleld.

A low standard of political ethics prevails
in Hampden county. or the Springfield Union
could not suppose q low standard OF po-
litlcal ethics in the President elected by
the Democratic party to assist in carrying
out Democratic principles:
"Tnr Sun assumes that Mr.. CLEVELAND has by his
brief reference to the tariff pledged himsetto for
specific performance Of the Chicago contract. but 1t
Is safe to assume that the President did not intend
that any such meaning should attach to his words"
Here is the language Of Mr.. CLEyELANDs
message. and we do not see how anybody,
even In Springfield. can misunderstood 1t:
ut was my purpose to summon Congress In special
session early in tho coming September that might
enter promptly upon tho work NJ tariff REFORM which the
true in'sres Of The country Clearly demand eheh large
majority Of The people, sho,on BY their Hraoes dsrs and
erpea and he accomplishment Of uheh epsy egort ors
present Administration PLEDGED But while tarn reform
has lost nothing OF its immediate aud permanent i'm
portance, and must in the near future engage the at
tention of Congress. 1t has seemed to mo that the
financial condition of the country should at and
before all other subjects BIO considered by your honor
able body"
The tariff reform which 80 large ma
jority Of the people voted for last fall. and
to which every effort OF the Administration
will be directed. can be none other than the
making of tariff for revenue only. Tho
man who voted the Republican ticket voted
for protection: the man who voted the
Democratic ticket voted for the destruction
OF protection and the creation OF tariff for
revenue only. Does the Springfield Union
think that Gen. HARRISON would have been
justified In working against protection IL
he had been reelected
One more question to this esteemed but
benighted contemporary: II we subscribe
to the Union. would it be right for the pro-
prietors to send us the Republican?
