acter of the higher courts of these
islands.
This mainstay of civilization,
the administration of Justice, was
seriously threatened by the Kala-
kaua dynasty more than once, not
because it was hostile to native in
terests, but because neither King,
Queen or people ever comprehended
its vital importance.
Residents lere, who are familiar
with the Practice of the lower
courts, over which natives have
presided, we'll know that the brides
of the Chinese and others have
made tn, administration of Justice
a farce, in many cases, and would
have bpaght on foreign interven-

sufferers. This evil was not due
to th' natives depravity so much
as to Ms ignorance of the real i'm.

THE SUGAR TRUST.

The history of the Sugar Trust,
as it appeared in Harper's Weekly,
is reprinted in our columns, of
today.
The question is often asked, why
is there a Sugar Trust; Why are
there any "trusts?"
The answer briefly is, that Trusts
are the direct results, as a rule, of
over-production. If ten men are
in the same line of business, and
each one, is able to sell all the ar
ticles he can make, at a fair price,
he prefers to do his own business,
and pocket his own profits. When,
however, ten more men enter the
business, and produce more than
the market requires, then prices
fall, and no one makes any profit.
Each merchant "cuts under" his
rivals in trade, and the result is,
that many are ruined. At this
point, naturally enough, some one
or more of the manufacturers who
are active, and in trouble, propose
a Trust" or combination, by
which one concern shall manage
and control, for all those engaged
in the same business, and so hold
up prices. The result is that the
Trust assumes heavy obligations,
and, usually, closes up enough fac
tories. to reduce the supply.
While the United States are,
Just now, the breeding grounds for
Trusts, owing to the unfortunate
fact, that they manufacture
more articles of many kinds
than they can sell, the Sugar
Trust is the greatest of all,
and deals in an article of really
prime necessity. Holding an i'm

GENERAL GRANT AND CHINA.

At the time of General Grants
visit TO China and Japan he was
asked by the statesmen of both
countries, for his views regarding
the situation in the East" His
reputation, both as great COM
mander, and the occupant Of the
Presidential sffice for two terms,
gave his views very great import
ance in the minds of those states
men.
he advised them to cultivate
the most friendly relations with
each other, and, under no circum-
stances, to drift into war among
themselves. He told them that
such a war would cause great in
Jury to the combatants, and be Of
much advantage to the European
nations who had interests in the
East"
It is known that this advise was
kindly received by both the Chi
nese and the Japanese statesmen,
and, for q time at least, had prob
ably some influence on their mu-
tual relations. Those who be-
lieved that the policy recon-
mended by General Grant would
be permanently followed failed,
however, to see that it was po-
Icy dictated by the very best
worldly wisdom, but that nations
are not wise. They entirely failed
TO understand that a nation, like the
Chinese, living on curious and an
Gent traditions regarding the in
feriority of all foreigners, would be
apt 10 provoke trouble, even though
its policy was a peaceable one, and
it held the soldier in contempt.
The Chinese are in the world, and
they cannot act as if they were out
of it. The mere fact of existence
forces them to deal with other ma
tons, whether they ike TO or not,
and they must act on the lines of
their education.
On the other hand, the japanese
statesmen, since the establishment
of constitutional government, are
no longer masters of the situation,
and are governed, largely, by public
opinion. 1t, no doubt, forced the
government into the present war,
with perhaps sufficient cause, and
may, in its ignorant blindness,
force it, in time, into wars with
some European nation.
While General Grants advice
was excellent, it never took into ac-
count the evolution of the two ma
tionalities, which lie near each
other, an evolution which required
some other kind of good advice.

A GOOD SHOWING.
Interesting Statistics Compiled by
the Minister of Finance.

According to statistics compiled
by the Minister of Finance. the
financial showing for the six
months just passed, as compared
to the same six months of 1893. is
very encouraging. The taxes re-
ceived during the period this year
amounted to $3.50, 6O6.SS. In 1893
the taxes amounted to 736.54724
showing a decrease of $96,94O &C.
This decrease, however, is more
than offset by the expenditures.
which, in 1898 were 814.435.97'
while In 1894 they only amounted
to s692,952.67, a difference of
s121, 4S3.S0, or total gain of s24.-
1924 over 1893.

ENGLISHMEN IN HAWAII.

lsltOrS IN lQes6 lsldQuS, are ire
quently misinformed about the at
titude of the English residents
towards the revolutionary move
ment. While many of them are
cordial supporters of the present
government, there are some, who
prefer restoration OF the mon
archy, with an occupant of the
Throne, other than the ex-Queen.
With these may be placed the
officers of the British ships of war,
that visit our port. These officers do
not fail to indicate their preferences,
generally in a courteous, and some
times in a very offensive way.
This attitude of neutrality, or of
antagonism to the Republic is due
in some measure to the conditions
of trade. The existence of the Re-
public means probable annexation
to the United States, and this, of
course, means injury to British
commerce, in these islands, so far
as the American system is hostile
to it.
Aside from this, there is the her
editary love of the English people
for the institution of monarchy,
and its requirements" The ira
dition of the Americans is,
"Church without a Bishop, State
without a King" The tradition
of the English is, a Church with
a Bishop, a State with a King"
No doubt the rare example of Queen
Victoria's reign has enhanced the
value of this inherited institution,
and made it very dear to Eng
fish hearts. 1t is not surpris-
ing that Englishmen love mon
archy which has covered the
world with its glory, and, today,
is far in advance of all other ma
tions, in its influence over the af-
fairs of mankind, in all parts of the
earth.
This intense love of vested
rights" no doubt, led the better
class of Englishmen to take sides
against the Northern States of
America in their war against hui
man slavery. But, withal, and it
has a vein of grim humor in it, the
Englishmen are, probably, the
greatest king-killers in the world.
While their colonial rule has been,
and is, the most admirable system
in existence, for the administration
Of just laws over inferior races, 1t
has generally, not come into opera
ton, until chiefs and petty mon
archs have been badly knocked
about, and deposed.
1t is undoubtedly true, that
causes arising out of the British
diplomatic service here. in previous
years, has had some influence in
moulding English opinion, but
such causes now no longer exist.
Here, as elsewhere, if the condi-
tions of education, refinement, and
charity, which is the largest cul-
ture, exist, those who have the most
divergent views on political and re-
ligious matters, will meet and asso
ciate, with mutual advantage, and
in social harmony. And still, it is
to be most sincerely regretted that
all Englishmen here, do not feel,
as Commodore Tatnall felt, as we
have said before, when his men
pulled the lanyards of the British
guns, before the China forts, that
"bIood is thicker than water"

NATIVE OPINIONS.

In accordance with our purpose
of presenting from time to time the
current thought" of the opposi-
ton press, we print in another COL
umn an editorial from a recent
number of the Holomua. As a
record of the muddled thought of
those who find no good uses for the
Republic, it is worth keeping. The
article is titled awake Up" and
was, so far as We can see, an effort
to make the natives register. The
writer takes a cherries view of the
outlook, By stating very frankly
that the natives will wait, and
wait, and do nothing" AS the
editor warns up to his subject he
informs the natives, out of his own
military experience, obtained no
doubt in some fierce wars, that ga
stone, a coral rock, broom stick,
a banana or a fish are all that are
needed" in making war. He
pathetically asks, what weapons
did the strikers in Chicago have ?"
But he fails to say, where the
strikers landed themselves. He
alludes to his patriotic cotem-
poraries, those with whom he
has stood shoulder to shoulder
in stout opposition to the revo-
lutionists; to those noble men
who have wept over their poor
native brethren, as they were
cruelty stripped of their rights
by the missionary pirates"
and the American marines, as
"those Hawaiians whose inherit
ance from the haoles, has been gin,
disease and missionaries" He fer
vently losses these self-sacrifcing
men into the same boat with the
wicked missionaries" and their
friends.
Having, with a most daring mi
litary spirit, urged the natives to
the indescriminate use of the ba-
mana, as a terrible weapon of war
fare, and having, at last, come to
the conclusion that they will not
even use this destructive missile,
against Mr.. Dele, and his friends,
he promptly stands aside, and rings
down the curtain, over the revolu-
tionary scene in our history, and
inscribes across the dark curtain:
" Good by then to fight"
This impressive piece of literature
should be preserved. Concealed
in its words, is the history or
Royalist thought, which the writesi
did not intend to write. BeneatO
the comic aspect of the declaratit in
of principles, may he seen the tn
tionale ofthe opposition moveme
from the beginning, when, as
Bush, the leader of the forl tn
hope, says, Marshal Wilson coult st,
check the revolutionists, ON Jany pa
18th, because he had only "dru" tn
behind him. The movement ;e It
that time, has been perfectlyn- pa
sistent, and logical. This "ctnt WI
of thought " helps, in a smaliy,

the vast area of land here and
the possibilities of its cultiva-
ton by farmers it might be
we'll for the Government to de-
wise a plan for inducing dis
satisfied farmers in the West
and Northwest to settle here
in country where crops are
not retarded by frosts and
billiards. There are men with
families on farms in Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Dakota who
work and work and work and
manage to get a crop once in
three years. 1t is folly for
anyone to believe those people
are satisfied. 1t is all
work with them and no
play; they contribute toward
the schools and every
thing else that is BENEFICIAL
to their comm unity without
having more than a chance to
live in return. A majority of
these farmers own 100 acres
of land and there is not one of
them but what can raise bet
ter crops and be happier on 40
acres of Hawaiian soil than
where he is with 100. What
the government should do is
to offer inducement of some
kind to actual settlers and to
bring the resources of the
country before them in a way
that will attract their atten-
ton. The country has been
advertised extensively within
the last two years as a place
for revolutionary scares and
