THE HAWAIIAN REPORT.

Ex-MiHister Stevens Exonerated ny the
Senate COmmittee.
The contention that Minister Stevens
conspireG for the overthrow of the Ha-
waiian monarchy, and that it would
never have fallen but for fear of the
power of the United States. finds no
favor in the report of the senate COM
mittee, OF which Mr.. Morgan was chair
man. This report shows conclusively,
upon the evidence elected by the COM
mittee in an exhaustive inquiry into
the whole case, that the queen was re-
sponsible for her own downfall; that the
constitution and her own oath to sup
port it being the only foundation for
her legal authority, her announcement
of a purpose to absolve herself from
that oath amounted to complete ab-
dication and left the islands without
any actual, efficient Cover ment. The
precise language of the report on this
point is as follows:
''Liliuokalani had only been kept on her
throne by the forbearing tolerance OF the white
people, who owned fifty millioa dollars of the
property on the islands. 1T required nothing
bu. the determined action OF what WIS known
as the missionary party to overthrow the
queen, and that action had teen taken before

one-half aud that on potatoes three
fifths. The duty ON flour is to be re-
duced, though the present Canadian
duty is so high that there is no market
for any American -four in the domin-
ion. In few instances the senate
amendments arc better than the origin
al bill. One of them imposes 4 slightly
heavier duty on barley than it did and
another takes apples Off the free list,
but imposes a smaller duty than the
Mckinley law. Yet even if the bill
were to pass with those amendments
the Canadian duties would be higher
than the American ones.
The entire agricultural schedule of
the Wilson bill shows how little it's
trainers care for the interests of the
farmer on this side of the st. Law
renee, while they are willing to do all
in their power for the farmer on the
other side. In 1855 the farmers repudi-
ated the Mills bill. They will be even
more emphatic this fall in their con-
demuation Of the Wilson bill. which
will do them far more harm than that
other democratic measure could.-Chi-

terms the departure of the present ad-
ministration from the settled policy of
the country in the support of republic
an institutions and principles wherever
its influence is felt. When n throne"

western hemisphere it is pulverized,
and when scepter departs it departs

sustain any American ruler in the at-
tempt to restore them. no matter how
virtuous and sincere the reasons may
be that seem to justify him" In this
statement, the report expresses the un-
doubted conviction of our people. and
that conviction will not be modified or
changed by any special pleading of

IT HURTS THE FARMER.
How the Wilson BiIl VIII Operate on
American Producers.


American Producers.
The trainers of the Wilson bill put
agricultural implements on the free
list The American manufacturers
called the attention of the senate COM
mittee to the fact that the only real
competitor of the United States in the
manuf acture of those articles was Can
ada. and that while it was proposed to
admit Canadian implements duty free
the dominion imposed on such articles
made in this country duty which was
SO high as to be prob bitory. They
asked therefore that the present duties
on imported agricultural implements
should be retained against Canada
The justice Of this is apparent, and
for some reason the finance committee
yielded to the demand and prepared the
proper amendment. But it refused to
go further in this direction by applying
the same principle to other articles.
The Wilson bill places eggs, cabbages
and some other products of the farm on
the free list. Canada imposes duty
on such articles. Therefore, the Cana
dian farmer under the Wilson bill can
SeOu MS products Tree across the OOun-
da-y line. The Vermont or New York
farmer cannot send his into Canada
without paying a duty on them. The
senate committee refuses so to amend
! the bill as TO retain the old duties where
the Canadians collect duties.
While the Wilson bill places on the
free list some Canadian products, it
lowers greatly the duties on others, but
does not call for concessions in return.
For instance the present duty on
horses, of which large number used
to be imported from Canada. is $50 per
head. The pending tariff bill changes
the duty to % per cent. ad valorem. If
horse is worth 500 it has to pay now
SO duty. Under the Wilson bill it
would have to pay Sl2, or 60 per cent
less. This is the way in which duties
which protect the farmer are to be re-
duced by populisss and democrats. who
claim that they are the special friends
OF the farmer.
The duty on hay is to be cut down
