THE TARIFF gILL PASSED.

The Wilson tariff bill was passed in
afternoon by vote of 203 yeas 10 140

income tax proposition being approved
by a far majority. The house is com

will be seen that there were but thir-
teen members absent or not voting.
fact that is exceedingly creditable 10
our representatives as body.
There will be general satisfaction
throughout the country with this result.
The delay of the house in beginning
consideration of the measure will be
pardoned in the light of the expeditions
manner in which it has since been
pushed to a vote-an expedition that.
while avoiding indecent haste aud
atfording every member all opportunity
to be heard upon the issues involved,
has tolerated no dilatory tactics OF OBJ
structive motions.
The bill will go to the senate im-
mediatelY, and it is probable that be-
fore the close of the coming week it
will have been reported from the COM
mittee on finance. Debate may be
more protracted than it was in the
house. but the Republicans have de-
cided in caucus that they will not re-
sort to obstructive tactics. but, after
fully expressing their position to the
end that they may be correctly UNDER
stood by their constituents and the pub
lie at large, they will permit a vote to
be taken. Three weeks at most need be
consumed in these proceedings. The
result is beyond question. There may
be some contention over the income tax,

Business men and citizens generally
will rejoice at the prospect of all early

ure have had more effect upon the pros
tration of the present than any existing
causes. As soon as our merchants and
manufacturers know where they stand
they will be able to grasp the situation

sentS. 1t is not an army with banners
that a courageous man fears, but the
possibility that secret foe may be
lurking behind cover of seemingly
harmless hedge.
The house has done its duty well. Let
the senate emulate its example, and the
future will be one which no brave
American need fear to contemplate.

Indifferent to the future to care for it.
He knew that they would submit to
oppression rather than resist it, and
hence he has not been surprised by re-
cent events of general notorIety.
One of the chief causes of the presetft
low position of Hawaii, industrialiv
and politically. is said by Mr.. Parker 20
be the coolie importatiOns. Of late
years the sugar planters have Imported
many thousands of coolies, who have
taken the place of native laborersf In
the rice aud sugar plantations, and
today native laborer finds no work for
his hands to do, even iI he should feel
inclined to do it. The labor market is
overstocked by men who are content to,
work for panuy day. The coolies
are the most debased of all human be-
ings. They are slaves by birth and
inheritance, and have no ambition to
rise above the condition of serfdom.
Ii the race ever had any manhood, it he's
been crushed out Of them. The negroes
OF the South in slavery days were inte-
PShoShe SOiADoiCo Will tut
coolies OF today, for whom there is no
lower depth of degrad alton than they
have reached.
Mr.. Parker is Of the opinion that as
long as the coolie system remains as the
corner stone Of material things in the
islands, just so long will the natives re-
fuse to make an effort to become the
arblterS of their own deStinies. They
all recognize the hopelessness of CON-
peting with such degraded laborers, and
to the abolition of the cooiie trade and
contract labor-f0r all coolies are under
contract when they arrive OH the islands
they look for relief. Even in the
United States the laboring classes have
been compelled to protest against and
interdict the traffic in the pauper labor
OF Europe, grade as far superior tn the
coolies as the American mechanic is to
the laZZaroni of Naples. Shall not the
native Hawaiian have as good right to
be protected against horde of foreign
slaves as the American to be spared the
competition of paupers from Europe?
Mr.. Parker's hope for the future of
Hawaii lies in the direction of rcsto-
ration OF the monarchy and an ultimate
protectorate by the United States. He
does not fear annexation, but recog-
niZes its imposslbility and inutility
under existing conditions. What the
natives need is that degree of protection
which will enable them 10 protect them
selves-the exclusion of slavery, that
blight that has cursed every nation that
has tolerated it. Americans profess to
love freedom. Then why should they
refuse to deal a death blow to coolie
labor in Hawaii?

CooLIE LABOR IN HAWAII.

The letter of Samuel Parker, lately a
member Of the Hawaiian cabinet, is
we'll worthy of consideration by those
who wish to arrive at fair determine
ton of the causes at issue in those islands.
Mr.. Parker is half-breed, his father
having been an American and his
mother Kanaka. He received liberal
education, first in the native schools
and finally in an American university,
and is far above the average resident of
Hawaii Ill both intelligence and char
acter. His views, therefore, ought to
be Of unusual interest and value.
MIR. Parker is, as might be naturally
expected, an ardent royalist. His con-
nectlon with the queen during the days
OF her power was intimate, as became
cabinet minister. But he was not blind
to the faults of the monarchy, and dur
ing his entire official career he sought
to bring about such reforms as might
conform it more to the advanced
thought of the age. He was opposed to
all forms Of absolutiSm, and endeayored
to thwart all measures tending towards
increasing the powers or privileges of
the throne. Notwit hstanding this, he
was an ardent royalist. for he believed
his people could be best governed by

Why Won BauInbach's Love Letter

ST. PETER, Feb. 1.-The mystery of
the letter written to ex-Secretary of
State Won Baumbach by his wife in 1856

account of which appeared last Thurs
day, is now fully explained. Ernest

is a cousin of Won Baumblch. and had
told MIR. Meyer 10 give the latter's mail
to him. In some way this particular
letter became mixed with Mr.. Meyers
letters and has remained there unopened
all these years. Mr.. Meyer has been sick

took notion to look oyer large NUM-

pose OF destroying those he did not
desire to keep. In doing so he came

this mailed to Alexandria without any
further explanation. 1t is said, however,
that the letter was written before Won
Baumbach was married. by the lady
who afterwards became his wife.
