NEW PUBLICATIONS.

The March number of 1.-THE Forum"
tUnlon Square. New York;, which, by
the way, begins Volume XVII, contains
the sharpest and, it is believed. the most
helpful discussion of the income tax that
has anywhere appeared. Hon. Uriel S.
Hall, member of Congress from Missouri,
who had made himself great authority
on this subject, writes in favor of it, and
David a. Wells against it. The same
number Of ''The Forum" contains the
| first OF series of articles on different
! systems of socialism or communism that
are favored by different groups of agi-
tators in the United States; Edward
Bellamy explains definitely the pro-
gramme of the nationalists, and Professor
William G.. Sumner of Yale University
criticises this programme, showing It's
impracticability. Another striking arti-
Gle in this number is a searching inquiry
into the causes of railroad failures in 1898,
| by Simon Sterne. "The Forum" begins
this seventeenth volume with an innova-
ton which, it is hoped, will prove very
useful to serions students of current
problems. At the end of articles of such
subjects as 'The Income Tax" 1.-THE Pro-
gramme of the Nationalists," and other
kindred discussions, there is published
brief list of the most instructive books
and articles bearing on both sides of these
discussions, so that reader may follow
his studies further than any review arti
| Gle can take them.

THE Hindoo lecturer, who the other
night told the people of this city that a
weakness in our social system is the fail
ure to train youth into greater respect for
age and parenthood struck at the root OF
distinct evil. 1t is certainly, as it is
sadly true that our children are not edu-
Gated and trained to that veneration and
loyalty for their parents that should char
acterize our system. If there was due
regard for parents and age, youth itself
would be better ballasted. age be made
more dignified, society bound in closer
union, and a very considerable percent
age of evil disappear. For it is undoubt-
edly true that very much of the wrong
going OF youth is properly attributable
to the weakness to which the Hindoo
calls our attention.

A DISPATCH from Massillon, O., states
that the National Executive Board of the
United Mine Workers of America is
about to issue an order advising all strik-
ing operatives to return to work. That is
all right, as far as it goes. but it is added
that all mine workers are to hold them
selves in readiness for general strike for
higher wages. That is to say, it is not to
be a strike against reduction of wages,
but in the midst of tight times, with the
complaint that there are hundreds OF
thousands of unemployed in the land and
in distress, there is to be precipitated a
strike along all the lines Of mine indus
dustries for higher wages, whereby the
army of the unemployed is to be greatly
augmented. 1t is impossible to under
stand what conception of wisdom the Ma
ton Executive Board has, in arriving at
the conclusion to order this general
strike.

The RECoRD-UNIoN says: Oakland has or
ganized movement to secure the Republican
State Convention. This puts three candidates
in the field, with half dozen others threat
ening. But one. of course, can win. Sacra-
mento viii entertain no jealousy and mani
fest no tll-feeling, no matter where the con-
vention goes" Shake neighbor; that is the
right spirit TO show. The convention WILL of
course come to Oakland, and we now know
that there will be no sore-h e-headedness at Sac
ramento in consequence.
Not necessarily 'of course" Sacra-
mento will have it. if honest endeavor,
straight-out effort and fair play can win,
and they ought to, always and every
where. But Sacramento is above sore
headedness, does not indulge in the sneer
is neither envIous nor jealous. She stands
upon her merits and asks for nothing of
which she is not deserving.

and that the white races were
cruel, dominant, and would not
trust the weaker" and would fight
like tigers for their property inter
ests."
Knowing Kalakaua as he did,
Mr.. Armstrong further declares
4. That he suggested To the king
annexation or a protectorate, with
Large revenues for himself"
Ii will be observed that Mr..
Armstrong now alleges that the
king was a party to what you, sir,
describe as ''his treaoherous
schemes with the king"
This is very painful revelation,
and possibly throws some light
upon the origin of the notorious
dissension that occurred between
Mr.. Armstrong and the kings
chamberlain, Mr.. G.. III. Judd, who
was certainly no traitor to either
the king or the nation.
1t appears To me that the point
which Mr.. Armstrong has now to
make clear, is the relation that ex-
listed between the Hawaiian Gov
eminent and people, whose trustee
he was, on the one side, and him
self on the other side, during the
time when, as he now alleges, he
was discussing annexation with
Mr.. Phelps, Mr.. Blaine and Mr..
Schuyler, and recommending the
king to make good terms for him
self when annexation came"
1t is perhaps not altogether un-
worthy of note, that one of the
sacred traditions of your own edi-
torial sanctum, constitutes me the
chief drag ON the wheels of the
reciprocity coach. There are, how
ever, names in the list which l
have quoted above, which | am
sure never would have been lent to
any scheme which had for its
recognized end, that which Mr..
Armstrong declares to have been a
direct move towards annexation"
and "a mortgage of the country to
the United States"
So far as regards these Interior
objects and aims of reciprocity, L
will now leave Mr.. Armstrong in
the hands of his friends and allies,
who must surely have some ques-
tons to ask him.

Mr.. EDIToR.-SIR The astound-
ing explanation which Mr.. Arm
strong publishes in your issue OF
to-day, leaves absolutely nothing
for any one else to say.
1 will therefore conine myself to
a simpIifcation of the statements
which Mr.. Armstrong now makes,
and which, in your editorial col
umns, you characterize in terms
which are, perhaps, not altogether
inappropriate, but which l should
myself hesitate TO use, even in jest.
Mr.. Armstrong, interpreting his
account with religious and other
anecdotes, makes the following de-
clarations:
I. That he himself told King
Kalakaua that in making reel
procity" he had "plastered annexa-
ton on every fence, mountain and
rock IN Hawaii"
2. That Mr.. Schuyler expressed
his surprise that the King had con-
sented TO reciprocity when cit was
perfectly clear that the drift would
be toward annexation, and the end
Of the dynasty
IL should be noted here that
when reciprocity was first formally
broached, In 1873, Mr.. G.. p. Bishop,
Mr. T.. D. Hall and, think, Mr.. A.
F. Judd, were in the Cabinet Chief
Justice Allen and Mr.. Hartwell
were on the Supreme Bench; and
Mr.. s. Y. Castle, Mr.. FL. A. p. Car
ter. and Mr.. RI. VI Whitney were
amongst the chief advocates OF
reciprocity, TO secure which, j be-
Iieve, every one Of the gentlemen l
have named favored the cession Of
Pearl Harbor 70 the United States.
It ia well known that Chief-Justice
Allen and Mr.. RI. A. p. Carter were
subsequently the actual negotiators
Of the Reciprocity Treaty, which
had "no other object than ultimate
annexation"
Mr. Armstrong goes on 70 state
.. That he had explained TO the
King how white races always
drive weaker races TO the wall,
that "weaker races had no sense"
