not to receive bids unless they are

Monday a singular scene occurred

were handed in when the clock marked

THE HAWAIIAN ENHANCEMENT.

Oi all the doubled-twisted, involute
and knotty problems that were ever
brought before this country by course
as inconceivable as it is absurd, the Ha-
waiian question takes the palm. Mr..
Cleveland with his usual headlong
determination, no sooner got into the
presidency than he undertakes to annul
and render void the definite action on
the subject of annexation that had been
taken ny his predecessor. 1t did not
follow that under the course outlined
by Harrison it was absolutely necessary
to bring the Sandwich ialands into the
union with the coordinate power of
state. Indeed the strongest obisctions
urged against unqualified annexation
OF Hawaii were of political
character; that she was fixed in
certain institutions repugnant to onr
OVID, aud that she had great snass of
low-class population which we should
lind it difficult to absorb. On the otber
hand, Hawaii was actually the daughter
OF our civilization and the child of onr
rearing American missionaries had
carried the cross successfully to her
psople, and American enterprise, genius
and capital mad made her industrial and
commercial sveopment an important
i-ctor IN tie epre IA vi our commerci
intefes.s. Besides all this, she held a

The utmost strength Of the Demo-
cratic party leadership should be ex-
erted TO have the tariff legislation
effected at once. It is not advisable
that it snoull be extreme, and many
portions of the Wilson bill ought to be
expurgated, but the party ought to
show that it is honest in its intentions,
and notably as to free raw materials.
II that be not done Democratic profess
sions will be largely discounted. The
business and manufacturing interests
of the country ought to know where
they stand. We observe by the tele-
grams that Congressman Geary and
other California congressman are stated
not to be in favor of the Wilson bill.
This probably means that they are op-
posed TO the contemplated reductions
OF California staples. That is correct
position for them for reasons frequently
given by the HERALD. Mr.. Congress-
man Geary, who is suspected OF desiring
to run for governor on the Democratic
ticket. would be very unwise indeed to
antagonize the products of our farmers
and horticulturists. There is plenty Of
room for fue beginning of the re-
formed tariff by knocking the duties off
OF pig-iron, coal and other raw materials
that enter into manufactures. The pig
gieh pig-iron producers have been able
to celebrate the jubilee of overgrown

ment OF public highways, as well

OF the question OF raising 500 600 by

RAIsINs have been drug in the east
ern market for the past two years. solely
through the rsscally manipulations of
the packers and their brokers in Chi
cago and San Francisco. The only way
is for the fruit-growers to hire the pack
ers to pack the fruit ald then sell it
themselves. When it gets so that the
grower sets only 500 out OF sale of
1852, and all the rest is eaten up in
freight and constructive charges, as in
stanced by the Fresno Expositor. it is

the Gordian knot OF possible foreign
interference with our free and untram-
meled traffic with the ORIENT. Whilst
our prestige at Hawaii severed the chain
of military power in the Pacific ocean
of Great Britain, it gave us the interior
lines OF control, or military observation.
of an archipelago which threatened to
reach. like strategic stone wall, from
Australia to British Columbia. In this
view of the situation the islands became
of the highest interest to US. and whilst
they we're offered to us on terms OF an
nexation implying political equality
with states, we we're in position to make
our own terms with them, and to take
them under our wing as an sppsnsge
with such political power as we nigh
decree.
We confess that when Mr.. Cleveland
bunglingly started in to undo all that
had been done by the Americans on the
islands to place Hawaii in our hands,
and to restore discredited and deposed
queen to the throne she had desecrated,
we looked upon the act not only as one
of unwisdom in an American president.
but as one tinctured with rashness
and animosity that might in the end
lead to our loss of the prize we go much
desired and could so easily acquire. The
queen had forfeited her throne by all the
laws of political morals, aud decent
and respected government had been set
up in her stead.
1t is monstrous, it is inconceivable,
that an American president should come
forward to restore that queen to her
throne in the face of decent and 9
settled government that had supplsnted
her. Yet, Cleveland has done this.
he has, through the official min
lister of the United States, formally
called upon the provisional government
to step down and out, with the
understanding that the repudiated
queen should be restored to power. He
did this with American war ships be-
hind the demand. If this is not a
declaration OF war on the part of the
president, it comes very much within
tu6 range Oh JnAt view. lu6 govern
ment of the islands was q settled, estab-
lished and recognized government. 1t
had been recognized not only by our
own but by all the other governments,
and yet our president has the temerity
to ask it to step down and out. What
would be the answer of any established
European power to such demand? The
American minister would have been
given his papers and war would have at
once ensued
1t will require the utmost coolness,
self-possession and good-natured diplo-
macy to overcome the rashness of Cleve-
land in this matter, and to hold our
wonted prestige in tho Hawaiian isl-
ande. That the good sense of the
American people, reflected by their pub
lie men, will find way to restore us to
the position we have always held in the
islands, we have no doubt; but the fact
will remain, that in this imbroglio,
brought about by the willfulness of our
hsmmer-hesded chief magistrate. our
ultimate control of the islands has been
placed in fearful peril

Now that the new year has come, and we are
well started on 1894 social circles are wa ying
up, and all are looRing TO ward to merry tim es
in the near future. Engagements and rum ors
of engagements are on everyo ae's tongue, and
the pros and cons of each nj 4tch are argued
and discussed from breas fast time uutI the
tights are turned out at night Soon the pc
riod of contamination of these engagements
will arrive, and then the marriage bells will
merrily resound throughout the city. But be-
fore that time comes The term of prepara tion,

Invitations, and especially hose for a we'd

which is as unal cradle as the law of the

commented upon, ana Is almost rs eu0d as q
passport to social ostracism. Therefore tie
greatest care should be exercised In this direc-
ton.
There are so many points to be consider d
and remem bsred in this connection that the
limits of a newspaper article hardly afford suf-
6cient scope. The only practical sut ges ion
which can BE- made is 10 consult some one ex-
perenceo IN sucn m stters, and whose Taste Is
