BIG INDUSTRY DEAD.
Tariff Bill Closes All the Victoria
Opium Refneries.

VICTORIA (B. c., August IA
The passage of the amended Ameri.
can tariff bill had the immediate
effect here of closing down all the
large opium factories, which for
years had been in business, en-
ploying more than sixty men. and
contributing 100000 annually to
the revenue. The firms referred to
are those of Tai Yuen, Quong On
Lun, Chong Yuen Tai, Quong Ying
Ching Lung and Sing Kee. The
proposition in the United States
Congress to lower the duty on
opium to Sc per pound had put all
the firms on their guard, and the
closing Of the factories was not al
together unanticipated.
Opium smuggling from this city
to the Republic over the Straits is
now at an end, and Chinese expor-
tation is also practically extinct as
a branch of business in which
months ago many dollars were to
be nimbly turned. Raw opium in
stock by Victoria factories has all
been held in bond awaiting the
turn Of affairs at Washington, D.
c. 1t will now be sent back to
Hongkong.

TEE FATE OF sueAR.

/ The ADvERrISEE presents its
readers this morning with the lat
est Washington dispatch on the
/ subject Of the tariff. 1t states that
the House biz placing sugar on the
free list hiss been referred by the
Sensts TO the Finance Committee.
The dispatch states thst the vote
On the bill wss 3 yess 70 Is nays.
This language Is ambiguous, but it
( probably refers TO the vote by which
the bin was referred TO committee.
Il seems, therefore, that in spite
OF the passage Of the tariff bill snd
It's probable signature by the Presi-
dent, the question whether SUGARS
10 remain on the free list is still
unsettled. Its, however, extremely
improbable that the President will
veto the tariff bill, though he may
allow ii TO become law without his
signature. II is also very unlikely
that the bill placing sugar on the
free list will ever pass the Senate.
While the ambiguity Of the dis
patch referred TO above leaves the
meaning Of the vote Of 81 to is
somewhat uncertain, it probably
indicates hostility to the measure.
This is shown by the fact that in
the very brief senatorial debate on
the subject, the advocates Of free
sugar opposed the reference to COM
mittee.
When it Is remembered that the
whole struggle between the Senate
and House has conferred on the
three items OF coal, iron ore and
sugar, it seems almost impossible
that the Senate Will surrender its
victory the moment after it has
been achieved. At the same time,
the checks and balances Of Con-
gressional legislation are so COM
pIicated, the motives which shape
action are so various and so in
volvsd that it will De mere common
prudence for Havaiiaus to restrain
the expression Of unbounded salts
faction over matters financial until |
the arrival Of something positive |
and final.

he E0TsEUyG LFFAIE.

VIZ publish this morning the full
text Of the statement made by the
captain Of the Kowshuug regarding
the sinking Of that unhappy vessel.
It Is derived from z Nsgasaki pa-
per, and has never been printed
eith=r here OF in the United States
L l. 70 Be noticed that this state
ment does not seem to bear out the
ch2rgs that the japanese shot down
the swimmers IN the water, or prac-
ticed the excessive crUeltiss which
have been laid 81 their door. The
bullets which the captain himself
had TO dodge were fired By Chinese.
The japan Gszette, which repub-
fishes Captain GzlsEorthy's state
meut- contains letter from one Of
its japanese subscribers, which
makes It appear that the hostiLities
between the rival Esrships had be-
gun before the firing upon the
KoEzhung. This does not, Of course,
justify any breach of international
law. bat il shows that state Of
war actually existed, AM this puts
8 different light upon the whole
transaction II the Chinese SOL
diers had been wiling to follow the
NsnfEz- there would have been 10
trouble. but they we're IN for z
fight and had 10 idea Of do
ing anything Of the kind.

So far SIS the bare fact asserted
in the Holomus is concerned il is
undoubtedly true, and we are
pleased 10 find i. admitted in roy
aliSt quarters. The Constitution
treats the native Hswaiisns, not
merely with justice, but with I'M
stin,sd iberality. 1t places no ob-
Stscle in the way Of their universal
registration. 1t goes beyond the
Constitution of 1887, as that went
beyond the Constitution of 1864,
in enlsrging the rights of native
HawaiianS. Toward the alien for
eigner, however, il is s. shade more
strict, and attempts to get rid of
the anomalous system which per
mitted the citizens Of one country
TO vote in another. To make
royslist grievance of this fact, how
ever, is mere midsummer mad
ness. As everybody knows, the
Constitution, by adopting such
provision excludes far more annex
stionists than royalists.
The Acknowledgement, however,
of such aliens as are willing to nat
ursliEe, though s hardship, is only
q temporary one, and it will be
removed just as soon as the Gov
eminent can negotiate the neces-
sary treaties with foreign powers.

The letter concerning coffee,
published in this mornings AD-
vERrIsER, is enough to rejoice the
soul Of any coffee grower. There
is no lack Of expert judgment
which puts the Hawaiian berry at
the top of the list. Care on the
part of the local growers to export
a fine article will have q great deal
to do with Fastening the upward
tendency of the price.

Wellman's Return.

WASHINGTON, Aug. Is. = Mrs,
Wellman, wife Of Walter Wellman,
the leader Of the Arctic expedition,
received cablegram from her hus-
band announcing the safe return
Of the expedition to Tromsoe, Nor
way. All are well and in good
spirits. Mrs. Wellman believes that
Mr.. Wellman has made his con-
templated journey to the north over
the ice in spite Of the destruction
Of his vessel, and has returned to
Tromsoe by some vessel which he
met at the edge of the ice pack.

CLEANS OF SENSE.

The man who says that the
Holomua never displays q gleam
OF sense Is unjust. The following
quotation from its issue Of last
night has 3 scintillation in every
line:
Whatever the causes were that
brought on the revolution and the
present situation, whoever was or is
to blame, who are the sufferers in the
past or in the future, are matters Of
no Importance today. The question
Is not what we could have said or
done, the question is what now can De
said and done TO further the pros
perity OF the country and OF every
soluble it embodied in 3 brown,
black, yellow or white she'll
who today calls this fair land his
home Mr.. Bush says that he
doesn't know what We mean by
the praying and waiting business.
He is remarkably Obtuse in this in
stance. We mean that the golden
opportunity has gone by in which the
royalists should, and could have made
successful move whereby their pres
tige in this country would have been
assured.
The same estimable journal goes
or to say that it fully agrees with
the ADVERTISER and expresses the
belief that Hawaiians and for
eiguers, more especially the kama
ainas, will be willing to accept the
Republic without reserve.
So far, certainly, the observa-
tons cited show q degree Of good
sense which Is most gratifying.
Unfortunately they exhausted the
whole stock which the paper
seems to have had on hand.
1t hastens to declare that
the fragrant MALE extended
By the ADVERTISER as q peace-ofer-
ing Is nothing but false male, and
gives as It's exquisite reason the
fact that the Constitution excludes
many aliens from the ballot. The
oppressed Hawaiian" Is discarded
as an all too aged theme, and the
oppressed alien i substituted.
Not one OF the transmutstions
which the lightning change az
tist' who works the royslist press
has accomplished Is more marvel
Ious than this. Heretofore the Vi
resources Of the English
language have been exhausted in
describing the vices Of the flibus-
tering alien. The offences Of the
Republic consisted solely in the
fact that It sacrificed the native
FOR the foreigner. This count ia /
the indictment having failed, the 1
charge i reversed. aud the COM
plant i that the Republic has
Disseminated IN favor Of the ma
tive Hawaiian and against the
alien foreigners.

duty It should De to report 10 the

eognized thst there are strong

There may be tinge Of socialism
in such 5 policy, but it is $ harm

can see, as $ practical proposition,
that s city has SIS much interest in
the proper management Of It's

e. the city should control

stances If the city government
Is organized in such = way that it
can conduct them honestly ana
efficiently, It should take them in

believe state or municipal control
Is sound.
Now for the application to Ha-
wall. In this undeveloped coun-
Try either policy can be entered
upon, since public WORKS are con-
spieuous chiefly By their absence.
The railways, etc, are vet to build.
As far IS stste ownership Is prae-
ticable It should be aimed ST. On

SIR: l have the honor TO acknowl-

numerous robheries in Homo
lulu had come to grief. If the
finding of the stolen goods in
the house of the man charged
with the crime is an indica-
ton of guilt the police have
the right man in the right
place. 1t is astonishing how,
after a long career of crime, a
man will be brought up with a
round turn through his efforts
to bag some small game. The
plumber found seems to have
been sufficient on which to
realize enough money to take
the fellow out of the country
in good style but he evidently
felt that the picking was safer
here than elsewhere. If he
has the luck that another
prisoner had, in agreeing to
leave the country rather than
go to prison he will probably
be very we'll satisfied. While
the Islands are very we'll rid
of such characters, deporting
is not punishment to fit the
crime. Nor does the sending
of a man to prison deprive the
city of his society except for a
time; a better plan would be
to pardon and deport him be-
fore his sentence expires;
justice would be fairly we'll
satisfied because the city
would not only have an addi-
ton to its working force for
awhile but would ultimately
be free of at least one bad
character.
We desire to call the atten-
ton of painters to our i'm
proved burners for removing
old paint. You've probably
used one of the old sort that
blistered the fingers every
time you used it and decided to
do the work in future with a
Jack knife. The kind we are
selling have the very latest
improvements which COM
mend it to men whose hands
are not made of metal.
The lot of hanging lamps
delayed by the strike in the
United States reached us the
other day in good order and
are ready to be delivered to
you any time. They are in
late designs and have the best
burners in the world. We
merely mention the arrival of
the goods, it is not necessary
to go into details as to their
makeup. the people of Homo
lulu recognize this store as
the headquarters of lamp
goods and here it is they come
when they want to buy.
Other people keep lamps-we
sell them.
Frequent inquiries for rakes
other than conventional in
style prompted us to place an
order with our San Francisco
agents for something that will
cover more ground and take
up the smallest sprigs and
leaves without tearing the
grass. We have a half dozen
patterns any one of
will give satisfaction.
There's not enough water
now to flow through the pipes
much less turn a sprinkler.
Realizing that it is a good
time to advertise an article
when the demand for it is not
great, we call attention to an
assortment of sprinklers re-
ceived last week. In addition
to the regular three legged
kind there are some you stick
in the ground and the water
passing through an opening
turns a whirligig that throws
a spray over fifteen feet of
grass. These are good sprink-
Iers and effective enough for
any one.
When the sun is hottest our
thoughts dwell upon ice
cream as a means of cooling
off" The "Gem" freezer is
)ne of the best because it re-
luires so little time to do the
work; twenty minutes from
he time the cream goes in
he can it is frozen hard
enough to serve. The "Wh1te
