The OUTLOOK IN HAwAII.-Advice
from Honolulu up to April % bring
news of considerable Importance.
From these it is evident that the cleo
ton on Thursday last of delegates to
the Constitutional Convention can
have amounted to little less than
farce. The first requisite from an
elector was that he should take oath of
allegiance to the provisional govern
ment, and consequently not only have
the natives as body, who desire the
reinstatement of the Queen, refrained
from participating, but so have many
Americans from a fear of losing their
rights as citizens of the United States
According to Rear Admiral Irwin,
who returned to San Francisco from
Honolulu on Saturday. the provisional
governments position is very preca-
rious one. The natives, he says, are
very restless, and an outbreak at any
time would cause little surprise. Hap
PLY, American interests will, in any
eventuality, be safeguarded by Minis
ter Willis and Admiral Walker, and
there is little fear that che plans of any
other Power to take advantage of
possible revolt will be permitted to
develop.-NeaO York Herald.

submissively they permit the leaders to
sacrifice the objects of the strike.
When the conferences begin. the leaders
that have seen treating with employers
let go first the mems interests and cling
closest to the we'll being of the organiza-
ton. In the clothiugcutters' strike, or
lockout, everything was sacrificed ex-
cept the power of debating to the en-
ployers the exclusion of non-union men.
The leaders betrayed their reasons like
foolish boys, and it was evident that their
sole aim was to control the market for
cutters.
Such ends are INCOMPATIBLE with social
ism. They make toward the formation OF
labor trusts, and that seems to me TO be
the outcome of industrial development.
There is no obstacle in nature that is
prominent in the horizon 10 prevent labor
being organized and controlled like any
other commodity, and certainly the same
motives that actuate Rockefeller in stor-
ing oil do direct labor leaders clumsily to
endeavor 10 corner their mechanics. Ii
the men are intelligent enough they may
share the profits and thus be commodity
and are-holder at the same time. But,
so lar as things have gone under my OBJ
seryation, labor is unfortunately only
goods for delivery"
At any rate the forces within indus
trial circles that make for the syndicat-
ing OF labor are powerful and are in pos
session. The advance of socialism will
only cause split ii the progress has been
sufficiently real and secure. 1t will
make very bitter future contests and
check the progress OF all industrial ten
dencies. Socialism is new element of
disturbance. long familiar in Europe,
now added in this country, and may be
of respectable proportions as a sociolog-
jcal force, but it will be an antidote
planted and grown along with the poi
sonous discomfort by the panic and its
sequence OF depression and sutferings.
Meanwhile the awakening of spring
and the caresses OF sunshine soften all
men and things. There are the mothers
and babies on the fire-escapes and the
saucy ponies in the park. Haberdash-

than wandering. He had called up sew

but being on his good behavior he man
aged to suppress his feelings, though it
could be plainly seen that he was almost
at the limit.
