Mrs Northup had heard her wild pi-
rouette, which came near overseeing the
oil stove, and wondered if, like poor
Sparks, she was tearing her hair for an

cient experience with literary dodgers
not to be surprised by unusual noises
Now Edith could write that letter she
had so much dreaded to brace up Willie,
and it would not be necessary to tell
more than half the usual number OF
white lies, which was comforting to a
girl of her high moral principle. Willie
was fretting at his enforced idleness
while his sister shaved to support herself
If he had known how she had taken the
double burden on her shoulders! But
happily he did not know, for she had

The PLATFORM.

Nine-tenths of the men, women,
and children, in these islands are
dependent upon the sugar indus
try for their support. The largest
part of the capital here, is invested
in it, and every mechanic, en-
gineer, or workman, professional
man. as well as the marine service
Of the islands, are dependent on it.
While the power and influence of
the nominating convention is
pledged to the restriction" of
Asiatic immigration, it is not
pledged to the maintenance of the
one great industry, which, at pres
ent, is almost wholly dependent
upon Asiatic labor.
If the determination to restrict
Asiatic labor is only "glittering
generality" in the platform, it
would have been well to have
pledged the power of the conven-
ton to a policy which would not,
under any circumstances, put this
great industry in jeopardy. This,
also, could have been treated as
"glittering generality" and would
have indicated to the planters, that
they were safe in the hands of the
convention, and the party be-
hind it.

THE RED CROSS IN JAPAN.

Men, in civilized" countries, are
yet skeptical about the statement
that the Japanese are making real
progress, upon civilized" lines.
The fact that they are wasting
much substance in following the
examples of enlightened nations,
that have created fine and expen-
sive navies, and organized large
armies, for cutting the threats of
people that they don't like, should
be quite enough to prove that they
are making real progress as it is
now understood.
But the complete and extensive
organization of RED Cross" So
ciety, under the active patronage of
the Empress, indicates that these
wonderful people have realized at
last, at a bound, those sentiments
of humanity in war, which the en-
lightened nations have realized,
only after almost centuries of in
humanity in warfare. These are
people whom we have been pleased
to call "heathen," because they
knew little or nothing of our relig-
ion. And yet there has sprung out
of this heathenism, sentiment of
the finest humanity, the desire to
alleviate the sufferings of friend
and foe, amid the horrors of war.
the contribution of $4,000, by the
japanese laborers here, to the work
of the Red Cross society, has no
parallel in modern times. In a
comparison of the numbers and
circumstances of the givers of this
amount, with the numbers and cir
cumstaDces of those who have
made similar gifts, in the "enlight-
ened" countries, during their late
wars, it will appear that the Japan
csc have far exceeded the latter in
their voluntary generosity for the
cause. We are beginning to learn
something about these people, and
We may find it to our advantage to
get rid of some of the intolerable
insolence," which, a great English
statesman Gays, is the attitude of

LOUISIANA PLANTERS.

The reports of the discussions,
by the Louisiana sugar cane cult
vators, on the serious perils, into
which the business has fallen by
reason of the change in the Ameri-
can tariff, indicates the folly Of
building up a permanent business
on the shifting sands of tariff leg
islation. One of the intelligent
politicians of Louisiana, told US,
some years ago, that the sugar
planters of that State had foolishly
persuaded themselves, that "pro-
lection" was the permanent and
settled policy of the United
States. He believed, however,
that The people had no settled
policy, but that the very gradual
drift was toward free trade, as the
only safe principle of general trade.
1t is certainly a curious state of
things when the prosperity Of many
thousands of capitalists, laborers,
mechanics and farmers is abso-
lutely within the power of a few
gentlemen in Congress, who, in
many cases, cannot even take care
of themselves at home. 1t is, in
fact, an absolute despotism over
men, which, in matters of political
liberty, would be intolerable.
The Louisiana men are earnestly
crying for the preservation of
their homes, and the means of
living. Another strange phase of
the situation is, that the Louisiana
men were, until now, all Demo-
Gratis, and knowingly voted for the
very men who have knitted" them.
Here is another illustration of the
wise way in which communities
act. These men couldn't make up
their minds to cut loose from old
political ties, and so followed the
men who "knifed" them, and now
they are crying about it.

THE OCEAN CABLE.

1t is of the utmost Importance to
our commercial interests, that the
proposed Canadian-Australian ca
Bile, should have a station here
Our own government, will do all in
its power to secure such landing, if
it can be done consistently with
our obligations to the United States.
These obligations forbid US to
cede, or in any way, enter into any
arrangement, with any foreign
power, which affects our territory,
without obtaining the consent of
the United States.
Aside from this treaty obligation,
the Senate of the United States,
has recently, of its own motion, and
without consulting US, declared
that it would regard any interfer-
ence with the integrity of these
islands, by foreign powers, as an
unfriendly act towards the United
States. Any act of our own Gov
eminent, which tends to obstruct
this policy, might quickly bring US
under the displeasure of the gov
eminent at Washington. We are,
in truth, helpless, in the matter.
For even if we granted, for any rea-
son, the right to land a British cable
here, without ceding any territory,
we might quickly be in serious
complications with the government
at Washington.
There is, therefore, nothing to be
done, but to submit the matter to
that government, and ask it to
point out to US, what its pleasure
is. Our hands are tied up, not only
by treaty obligations, but by the
moral protectorate which the
United States has established
over US of its own accord.
That government should, at once,
consent to the landing of the cable,
here, or it will, if it acts toward US,
with justice and consideration, give
US some valuable compensation, for
depriving US of such a valuable
commercial privilege.

Under the treaty stipulations ex-
listing between England and France,
regarding these islands, the British
promoters of the cable may have to
obtain the permission of the French
government to occupy our soil. If
it is required, it could, probably
be readily obtained, as the French
government, takes little interest in
these islands. We reprint, in an
other column, an instructive article,
from the London Times, on the
subject of the cable.

VALUABLE TESTIMONY.

which appears in another column,
is a singularly valuable contribu-
ton to the history of these transit
tory DAYS. In the attack upon one
faction of the royalist party, by
another faction of it, some very i'm
portant facts are coming into the
light. If the ADVERTISER, or any
supporter of the revolutionary
movement had made these state
ments of facts, there would have
been an angry and fierce denial of
their truth.
Read this: But the right of
voting does not count against poi.
The right to govern is nothing to
gin. The Hawaiians have refused
TO vote, they have refused to fight.
The poi, and the gin are yet within
their reach, and as long as it lasts,
their kick is only formal"
This estimate of the native char
acter, is made by the leading native
paper, Of the royalist faction.
Many people here, and very many
more in the States, who are trying
TO comprehend the revolutionary
movement, still ask, why did not
the natives spring up, in arms, like
men with convictions, and barri
cade, if they did nothing more?
The answer is here, and out of the
mouths, not of the revolutionists, but
Of the royalists themselves. They
who ought to know say, that the ma
tives prefer poi and gin TO the pos
session of political rights. In these
words of the Holomua is written
the reasons for the complete, and
indeed, pathetic downfall of the
native rule. On the native high
way the fingers on the sign boards
pointed to poi and GIN" and the
people followed it. They did not
see that Just beyond, was the chasm
Of the revolution, and into it they
tumbled. Perhaps, the n. Y. Ma
ton will, now, understand why the
monarchy was overthrown. The
causes are given by the natives
themselves. II is a pity that Mr..
Blount did not discover and state
the fact.
We will 60 further, and say, that
q live" statesman who was push
ing Hawaiian interests in every
direction, would cause a hundred
thousand copies of the testimony"
Of the Holomua to be circulated in
the States, as the complete and
final justification of the revolu-
ton, uncousciously given by the
natives themselves.
The associates" who edit the
Holomua, have really shown sound
political sense in urging the ma
tives, indirectly, to vote. Believing
as they do, that they prefer ''poi and
gin" to political rights, they see
that the heavy vote which they
might have held, could in some
way have been adroitly manipu-
lated, for practical purposes.
Now the registration is closed, and
this large political force is wasted,
ike streams running to the sea.

dates bob up before elections
the men nominated Saturday
night will be elected on a
"heads win tails you
lose" principle. The fact that
there is no opposition, no
second or third party in the
field for political honors takes
away from the election any of
the deep interest shown by the
people of San Francisco
whose municiple and even
state politics are in the hands
of Burns and Buckley.
In Honolulu as in every
other locality there is more or
less desire for having ice in a
convenient locality at night
and it is not always pleasant
task to get to the refrigerator
which is usually kept some dis
lance from the bedroom. A
company in New York is
manufacturing a metallic ar
rangement suitable for hold
ing ice, bottles, etc, and orna-
mented so as to make a handy
piece of furniture for a room.
Any one familiar with night
thirsts will appreciate the value
of a thing like this. The
mother of very young children
will appreciate it because it
obviates the necessity of go
ing around at night in her
bare feet and stepping on rub
Der balls, etc, and getting
severe shocks in consequence.
The Wertheim Triplex Sew
ing Machine leads the world.
Comparing it with any other
make of sewing machines is
like comparing a cheap grade
of clarets with Wetmore's
"Cresta Blanca" brands; like
comparing the sunlight to one
of our lamps with a Bradley or
Hubbard burner. The
Wertheim is the machine for
the people; every part of it is
as well finished as a piano, the
tables are of carefully selected
wood and polished, not var
nished. The mechanism is
simple and not easy to get out
of order. The arrangement
of the shuttle and for thread
ing the needle is such that a
child can handle it as easy as a
grown person, 1t sews three
distinct stitches, chain, lock
and combined lock and chain
by the simple turning of a
thumb screw. The tables
have the drop leaf and six
drawers and you can get the
whole business for less than
you pay for a sewing machine
with only one stitch.
physicians nave stated that
unless the drinking water in
the Hawaiian Islands is pro-

of malarial fever. The mere

The difficulty with those who
consider the labor question, is,
that they do not estimate the value
of the brains involved in it. No
two workmen will do the same job
alike, although the pay is the same.
"Piece work" proves this. The
cheaper an article of manufacture
is, the higher the price of the labor,
which produces it. This seems
paradoxieal, but is, as a rule, true.
1t is the. brain power of the high
priced labor which does it.
If the question is asked, whether
or not, the sugar crop of these isl
ands, can be produced, with high
priced American labor exclusively,
as cheaply as it is produced with
Asiatic labor, it may be said that,
under certain conditions, it could
be done. 1t is mainly a question
of Hbrains." Those who will say
it cannot, are, probably, men, who
if put under cross examination,
would show that they knew very
little about the actual facts, un-
DERIVING the labor questions.

CHEAP LABOR.

Mr.. Thomas Brassey, the father
of the present Lord Brassey, was,
at one time, the largest railroad
contractor in the world, and had,
it is said, over $4,000 men on his
pay rolls. He said, the cost of
labor is the same all over the
world" 1t was a rather startling
statement to make, but one who
will carefully reflect on it will see
its truth and force. Sergeant, who
employed 1900 hands in his factory
for making cutlery, in New Haven,
Conn, said the cost of labor
in that place was as cheap,
if not cheaper, than it was
in Germany. Carnegie, the great
ironmaster, says the same thing.
Several of his workmen in the
steel works at Homestead, Pa, re-
ceive each as much as $50 per day.
Intelligent farmers in the Southern
States often pay for white laborers
as much as $40 per month, when
negro laborers for the same purpose
can be obtained for SIS or $40.
A British naval constructor, on
the Clyde, said, twenty years ago,
that the cost of building a vessel
then, with the labor of skilled well
fed, American mechanics. at wages
of $3.50 per day. would be no
greater than if it was built with
the ordinary English wages of 81
! per day.
Mr.. Brassey's opinion was sus-
tanned by that of others. He be-
lieved that the labor of ten East
Indians, at ten cents day, would
really produce no more than the
labor of one skillful European Ia
borer.

the collector has deemed 1t advisable 10
begin selling dog licenses April 1st. in

not begin their canvass until June ISt,
