prscoRD IN rHE PARTY

Party politics in Maui are as in
harmonious as they are in Ililo.
our Wailuku correspondent sends
full details of the recent meeting
there. which ended in a Reputation
Of the American Union party in
general and Of its Asiatic plank in
particular. Much of this trouble
arises, no doubt, from the fact that
the planters are not informed as to
he need and the details of the com
promise which was brought about
| between the representatives of the
Union party and Of the proposed
I American party; and have the i'm
preston perhaps that the Union
party was sold out for a mess of
pottage 1t is perhaps true, also,
that they donot realize the strength
Of the anti-Chinese feeling here
at the capital, where all
questions affecting Hawaii, peace
and prosperity are virtually
decided. This being the case it was
probably a mistake not to have
delayed the dual party conference
until representatives of the other
Islands could have taken part i'll it
and seen for themselves the real
national necessity which brought
political union about. We hope il
is not too late to fight the
ground over again for the benefit
of the various interests Of the
whole group. The planters in Ha-
waii and Maui can hardly be
blamed for their course when they
have heard but one side Of

TWO TONES IN ITS VOICE.

Will our good friend Brother
Tenney now interrogate the Gov
ernment in regard to the unortho-
dox views of the AdVertfSer? He
will recall the fact that when he
brought up an expression of the
STAR upon the suffrage the morn
ing paper came to his relief as fol-
lows:
The final form OF government to which
the Provisional Government looks for
ward, with annexation or without it. is
| full representative government, in which
the native race may be sure of taking its
just and proper share. There is no in
tention or desire on the part of the adj
ministration, and we believe on that of
any considerable section OF the Annexa-
ton party, to disfranchise the Hawaiian.
OF this fact no more substantial proof
can be offered than is contained in the
provisions OF the Constitutional Con-
yention bill, which throws the ballot
open to the natives, without even the
restriction OF property or income
qualification.
This morning the Ad0ertiSer re-
versed itself as follows:
The Southern Democrats in the Con-
gress OF the United States are beginning
to realize that they are deeply concerned
in The Hawaiian question, because of
its close similarity to the most i'm
portant question which underlies the
social and political life OF the Southern
people.
There, as here, the issue is whether or
not the white race, endowed with
better brain, character and education,
and holding the largest part OF the
wealth OF the country, shall be DOM
mated by a weaker race, which expert
ence abundantly and sadly shows will
disturb, uproot and finally destroy good
government whenever it has the politi-
cal control.
After twenty years of experience the
Northern States of America are begin
ming to see the menace to good govern
ment, in the negro suffrage Of the
South.
The Southern whites, to-day, retain
their political control, largely, by the
use of the shotgun, or stuffed ballot
box. The situation is deplorable, but
necessary. Honorable men hope to
secure the right results by constitutional
and just methods, and to abolish the
demoralizing policy of force.
The protection Of the weaker races,
in these modern days, will be secured,
not by giving them political control,
when they are in the majority, but
governing them with that wisdom and
sense OF justice, which is the out
growth OF better civilization and better
humanity.
Now Mr.. Tenney Now Mr..
Hatch The welkin is waiting for

A DANGEROUS POLICY.


We hope the report that ORR
entails are to displace white and
native laboring men on all the
docks will turn out to be an error.
1t is of course true that Asiatics
would work for low pay, as COM
pared with those who are now EN-
ployed, but that ought not to be a
decisive argument to employers
who are making money with the
labor market as it stands. There
might be some excuse for such
policy in calamitous mercantile
times or in a country where white
people are in numerical prepond-
erance; but here in Hawaii where
the maratime business is good and
where the aid of our white working
classes is needed to preserve the
Government itself from the menace
of the majority, it would be the
height of folly to permit Asiatic
labor to displace that which is now
used in large sphere like the water
front. Hawaii needs every loyal
white man who is within its borders
whom our people can afford to pay
wages to. 1t cannot afford
to drive them out to make room for
the Oriental who is clamoring for
the franchise, and do so at the
further cost of disaffecting the nat
i've whom it is proposed to displace
along with his white comrade.
The net result of such a program
in its final analysis would be to
isolate a little group of business
men and planters, together with
the Government itself, in tumul-
tuous throng of Asiatic laborers,
whom it could not control and
which might undertake to dictate
to it in matters affecting the vital
concerns of the group. Plainly
this question is most serious. 1t
is pregnant with danger and dis
affection, and those who may be-
come responsible for the substitu-
ton policy will rue the day in bit
terness of spirit, There are all too
few men now in these Islands COM
mitted to the cause of the
republic There are far too

A RISE IN PRICE.

Beginning with the first Of April
the subscription price Of the STAR
will be IS cents per month and
Sc per quarter The Adasyfisey, as
will be seen by its announcement
elsewhere, has established the same
rates.
The reason for this rise in price
is that neither paper at 50 cents
per month, gets back the cost Of its
product Small papers like the
BNletiu and H0l0maa may do SO, for
they do not set much type compar-
atively speaking, and their expenses
in all departments are small; but
for the eight-page Aa1eyfiser and
the small type STAR, so cents pei
month means a monthly loss. By
charging the rates given above both
papers are enabled to work Their
subscription lists on a small margin
Of profit.
The additional twenty-five cent:
a month does not amount to the
cost Of cheap cigar a week to thu
reader but it means the diiferenc,
