Persecution

Tire acquittal IN the District
Colrt yesterday of Mr. c b
Wilson charged with assisting in
committing mayhem goes on
record as another instance of
petty persecution in which the p.
9 authorities at all times indulge.
1t u safe to say that if any other
man had acted as the testimony
shows that Mr.. wilson did. no
accusation nor any arrest would
have been made. Bat the pros

That the government by such
action only increases the number
of IT'S enemies goes without say
ing. Mr. Wilson is one of the
most popular men in Honolulu
and counts numerous friends in
both parties. That none of them
desire to see him prosecuted on "a

goes without saying. The sooner
that the government drops that

be for its political health. We

The Monroe Doctrine.

1t is amusing to notice the
favor with which the p. g organs
cling on to the Monroe Doctrine
and insist in making it applicable
10 Hawaii whenever they see
breakers ahead. This is especial
~ the case when the japanese
dilemma arises before their
frightened eyes, They pray and
hope that Mr.. Cleveland will
make a rather stretched use of the
Monroe Doctrine and tell the
Japanese government that the
Japanese in Hawaii can't have
the suffrage. Poor, 'T'iser, poor
Star, poor p. G. How much they
yet have to learn. Allowing for
the sake of argument that the
United States would object to
any power snnexing these islands
they would perhaps be able to
interpret the Monroe Doctrine to
suit. But no sane man can be-
lieve that the United States
would stand between Hawaii and
any power that simply came here
to demand its rights granted and
voluntarily agreed upon by treaty.
If a glaring outrage was COM
mitted by the Hawaiian govern
ment on a British subject aud he
was unable to get satisfaction
and upon appealing to his home
government the matter was taken
up and an indemnity demanded,
does the Advertiser and the others
then believe that If the demand
was not complied with. the Unit
ed States would step in and say
to Crest Britain Look here.
you mustn't enforce your demand
however just it may be-becsuse.
you know, we can't allow inter
ference In the domestic affairs of
Hawaii. The American admin
istration that would commit snch
betise would be laughed out of
existence in twenty-four hours.
And it is just the same with the
japanese demand. Japan would
not have Hawaii as a gift. but
she insists in holding the Hawai-
ian government TO its contract
aud do what it in justice is bound
aud Obliged to do-Monroe Doct-
rtne or not That the American
administrations have not bother
ed much about the Monroe Doc
sEine can be seen from the fact
Hawaii holomua = Progress. [volume] (Honolulu) 1893-1895, 1894-05-09

that that famous doctrine was
promulgated in the year 1918 or
there about and if we remember
rightly Hawaii has since then
had considerable experience in
damsge-suits, foreign inter
ference yes. even temporary an
ne1ation. Give the japanese
their rights-and give the Mon

TvATLaBoR COMMISSION.

The personnel Of the labor commission ap-
pointed by President Cleveland to investigate
the cause Of the recent railroad strike will not
meet the entire approval OF wage-earners, mas
much as 1t is partly composed of lawyers who
are more in sympathy with railroad corpora
tions than with employees. John d. Herman
is a prominent attorney and was a railroad
commissioner for the State OF New York for
number of years; Nicholas E. Worthington is
at present a circuit Judge in Illinois. The
remaining member Of the commission, Carroll
D Wright is well known in the labor world.
II will make no difference as TO the result
OF the investigation. except as to its possible
prejudicing of public opinion. The commits
sion has no authority except to investigate.
and. while it may recommend punishments or
methods OF restraining strikes, it can do no
more than make its report.
The present administration has been singu-
!arly favorable to the appointment of attorneys
TO public Office. Perhaps it is because they
are more capable than ordinary persons, or
possibly they are more persistent in seeking
s!ficial preferment For some reason they
continue to get there, and unfortunately
enough are left to supply all vacancies that
may occur during the next two years.

PREACHER DEMAGoGUEs.

Last Memorial Day certain Rev. Cave
stirred up considerable feeling and comment
by publicly bewailing the downfall OF the Con-
federacy in an Grafton delivered at Rich
mond, Va. and yesterday Rev. Weaver prayed
at a political meeting in Iowa that the Al
mighty deliver the country from the Demo-
cratic party as speedily as possible.
Both of these reverend gentlemen had a
perfect right to express their views in the
manner above stated, but it is hardly reason
able that either OF them was sincere in his
remarkable utterances. The result of the war
has been accepted by friend and foe as the
best possible settlement Of a contest brought
on by sectional differences. and the Demo-
cratic party is not responsible for the present
depressed condition of affairs.
There are ministers OF emotional tempera-
ment who allow themselves to be controlled
by intense feeling rather than by calm, dis
passionate thought. On religious matters
that require faith and hope for rule and
guide to their conduct they are reliable and
excellent advisers. but outside of their call
ing they are not always competent to speak
on public affairs. Reverends Cave and
Weaver belong to that class, and in the depths
OF their natures neither Of them believed

"rHE TINES" OFFERS 800 TO HELP THE
COXEYITES

That blatant scalawag Coxey has abandoned
his followers and returned to Ohio to run for
Congress. Like cur he sneaked away, leav-
ing the men he brought here by mtsrepre-
sentation In a destitute, starving condition.
Blindly, foolishly. they followed him. believ-
ing in his mad scheme TO coerce Congress,
and now that he has gained notoriety and
nomination through their loyalty, Coxey, the
dastardly coward, has basely deserted, and
has left his followers to deliver themselves
TO the authorities TO be Jailed or put In the
workhouse. And Browne, the other wretch,
whose brain was strongly added, foresaw the
inevitable end and went away several weeks
ago on an alleged lecture tour. May he never
return.
Language cannot be found to express the
contempt felt by most people for those two I'M
postor charlatans, Coxey and Browne, nor is
it capable of indicating the sympathy for their
poor, deluded followers. The first two made
the march to Washington either on horse
back, in a carriage or in the more luxurious
Pullman car, and the followers tramped
through rain and snow, over wearlsome
roads, and sometimes without food, to back
up the wheel-brained schemes of two mad
cranks.
Coxey and Browne have gone, and may
their souls not rest as easily as did their con-
sciences in the base betrayal of their army.
Their followers are here and in suffering
condition. and now what shall be done to re-
lieve them?
IuK TIMES will give 800 toward fund
sufficient TO send the Coxey army back to
their homes. or TO some place where they can
find employment. This sum is not large, but
if the public comfort committee will take the
matter in charge many other similar dona-
tions can be secured.
In an emergency like this, sentiment, pre-
judice and kindred feelings should be subor-
dinated to the public good. The Coxey army
under its leaders was not entitled to gem
eral charity, but now that Coxey and Browne
have gone an effort should be made to send
the rank and file back to their homes. Let
US hear from the public comfort committee.

and sugar should be placed on the free list,
and should reach the consumer at the lowest
possible cost. Especially is this true OF
sugar, for the reason that its sale IS con-
trolled by trust. The United States con-
sumes more than half of the worlds product
Of sugar, and it is the largest item Of
food used by our people. 1t is estimated
that each inhabitant. man, woman and child,
annually consumes sixty-iour pounds of sugar.
the aggregate cost OF which is S205, 900, 900.
Last year the sugar trust made profit OF over
s35, ,000, 900 on tho sugar controlled by that
corporation.
President Cleveland needs no defense ex-
cept for his stand on sugar, and 1t is time for
the Senators to stop talking and come to an
agreement. The Gorman Senate bill pro-
vides a surplus OF about S30, ,00o, 900, the
amount supposed to be raised by the sugar
tax, and as that surplus is not needed it
would be well to strike out that part of the
bill. II coal and iron orc must be taxed let it
be on the reciprocity plan, and then we shall
have tariff law that will be useful, sccepta-
BILE, and which can be defended.

AGAIN THE TARIFF BILL.

President Cleveland has much the best Of
the tariff controversy in the Senate, notwith-
standing his talking has to be done by proxy.
Iago Hill and Don Caesar de Villas have ably
defended their leader, which unfortunately
also includes defense of the sugar trust,
inasmuch as the President advises tax on
sugar.
II there is anything in protection tax
on coal and iron is infinitely moro desirable
than a tax on sugar, because the coal and
iron interests are so much larger and from
protection standpoint involve the welfare
of many more people. Not mole than 10
per cent of the sugar used in this country
is produced here, while nearly all the coal
and iron ore used in manufacturing and for
fuel purposes is dug in the mines OF the
United States.
