A POLITICAL POSER.

An inquistive, studious youth of Is years,
the son of prominent Republican member of
Congress. asked his father: What about this
Coxey movement, anyway? The real causes
mast cover longer period of time than the
administration of Mr.. Cleveland. Now. in
your opinion. what are the real causes?"
That boy will be a political atheist if this
tendency to look under phenomena for cause
is not suddenly and seriously dealt with. His
young voice is out OF tune. and deservedly
His father refused him reply. A politician
has naught to do with causes. The philosophy
OF maiorities bounds his horizon.

but at any rate we will save the profession.

THE sentiment In favor of public control
and operation of ali natural monopolies, al
though comparatively recent, has been Of ex-
ceedingly rapid growth. These natural
monopolies are too numerous to hope for bring
ing all Of them under public control at one fell
swoop That would be revolutionary, and we
favor evolution rather that revolution. More
people agree that, from the nature of the
function it performs as a dissemination Of intel
ligence, the telegraph is, or should be, an ad-
junct of the postal system. Let US begin with
the telegraph. The other reforms will come
in good time.

SENATOR PETER has introduced ga bill to
dispose of idle labor and discourage idle
wealth in the District of Columbia" which
proposes that ga specific tax shall be levied on
all idle land subject to taxation equal to its
annual income in value each year." which
shall be appropriated ''to the employment Of
idle citizens in the construction OF such pub
lie works as Congress may direct" The idea
is a good one, and, if it could be made into
law and applied to the country at large, would
do much to bring back some of the prosperity
that has been missing for SO many years.
But the Senate will knock the bill into
flinders. The august gentlemen are not legis-
la.ing just now to make work for common
citizens, but only for those who "work" the
common citizens. When we send our own
kind to represent us, then we will get favor
able legislation, but not until then.

The agents and lobbyists OF the different

in the interest of those great monopolies, and
the pending bill has been changed to suit
their wishes and protect their business, and
certainly the representatives of those who are
being thrown Out of employment by the pro-
posed reduction of customs duties may justly
and fairly claim like degree OF attention.

THE strike of the coal miners is not yet a
week old. and already reports are coming in
of scarcity Of coal in the few localities where
productive industry is not at a standstill.
What has become of the overproduction-the
glutted market-of which so much has been
heard? 1t will soon be in order for the coal
barons-nice, philanthropic gentlemen, all Of
them-to hold a pleasant meeting in a real
cozy parlor in one Of the finest hotels in the
metropolis and put up the price of coal a
notch or two. When a commodity is scarce
and the demand for it active. the price is high.

II Detective" Wagner got his
present Job on account Of his mem
bership in the European and
American Society's Secret Service, -
then the laugh is on the Attorney
Generals Department again. The
Society with long name is one OF
those confidence bureaus by which
a gullable man is persuaded to give
up SIS for a tin star and commits
sion. The Society has waxed rich
from the money paid it by the poor
dupes who thought that they be-
came real Hawkshaws the moment
they bought the Society's creden-
tials. 1t is hardly surprising that a
detective" of this class should re-
gard a bullet, sent to kill, as the
proper enforcement Of his authority
upon a man who has been guilty OF
the heinous crime of fast driving.

FRIDAY
THE AFRICAN IN THE WOOD
PILE.

Apropos Of the implied announce
ment. drawn out by Mr Tenney,
that the Government will accept
annexation with full suffrage for
the natives the STAR would say.
Some days ago a member OF the
Hawaiian Patriotic League told
the editor of this journal that
Government members Of one OF the
recently united factions OF that
party had offered the League full
suffrage for the natives providing
Hawaiian citizens would act under
their especial orders in the coming
elections. It was deemed best to
draw out the facts, or something
hearing on them, by taking the
same ground in these columns
about native suffrage that the
members Of the Government took
at the outset of their Provisional
career; repeating in set phrase the
doctrine, as applying to the policy
of the present, which has assuredly
been the policy Of the past-and
giving the whole a sem-oihcial
tone
The result was prompt and has
probably surprised a great many
people. Mr.. Tenney, though allied
with business interests which have
uniformly opposed native rule, was
eager to assure Hawaiians yester-
day of his political confidence and
favor: while Mr.. Hatch, though
diplomatic enough in his reference
to the suffrage clause OF the new
election law, was equally anxious
TO convince the natives that they
were to have the benefit OF theii
numbers at the ballot box. Bott
men knew that such a concession
if sincere, meant their own politl'
cal defeat and the doom OF theii
palty-so we can only interpret
their course, in the light of the
Patriotic League disclosure, as
move in pre-convention politics IL
the interests of the smaller wing o
the American Union party.
Our political friends in thu
American Union party should taxi
the printed account of this cpl
sode and paste it in their hats
also the editorial of the Ad0er
hsey, which contradicts its torme
attitude on the franchise AM
whoops things up for native rul
with real histronic fervor.

WE presume, of course that the
new constitution will be submitted
finally to the votes of the loyal
citizens who are expected to yield
allegiance to it. That is the estab-
lished American plan. 1t would
hardly be the thing to promulgate
a constitution from the front steps
of the ex-palace without giving
the people a chance to ratify
the work of their representatives.
That would SAVIOR too much of the

The sugar harvest is almost
over, and the managers OF plan
tations are directing the repairs
on old plows and making their
selection of new ones. We be
lieve we have IN our Hendry
Breaking Plow the best that has
ever been sold in this or any
other country. 1t is constructed
on the principle Of highest
draught, compatible with great
est strength. We have sent
Hendry Breakers to a great
many plantations and have never
had a complaint. The fact that
pillow can be drawn by two,
and sometimes four animals less
than any other breaking pillow
commends it to the economical
manager.
The same good words that
come to us from people who use
the Breaker reach us from par
ties having our Hendry Double
Furrow Plow. In this the idea
of the inventor was to secure
mould board that would turn the
sod well over and leave the tur
row clean and ready for plant
ing and irrigating. We know
of no other pillow where sucl
good results have been ATTAINED
as in the Hendry Double Furrov
Plow. In most instances wher,
we have sold one of these pillow
others have followed; a positiv,
evidence OF their character.
