The Future in Finance.

EDITOR ADVOCATES Some one has
well said that however much men may
quarrel over differences, or seeming
differences of opinion, they are rarely
far apart at the basis. So it seems in
regard to much of the current discus
sion on finance. The populist is ridi-
culed, or censured or pitied, according
to the mood or nature Of his opponent,
for his ideas on the money system.
Yet those who profess to dissent most
widely are continually showing by their
acts that they, too, are deeply dissstis-
fed with the present system, though
at times and places they chant its
praises extrsvagantly.
The gold bugs are, and long have
been, filling the various magazines and
political journals from month to month
with schemes for increasing the cur
rency available for popular use. Yet
when populist plan is mentioned they
are certain that money is as plentiful
as need be for any and all purposes of
business. They calmly assure us that
quantity is nothing but quality is ev-
erythiDg in money, and in the next
breath shrek out that free silver would
ruin US because it would drive gold out
Of the land and reduce the circulation
by $500, 100000. These Inconsistencies
may be found in successive paragraphs
in any one Of the patent insides which
are now being sent out by millions

ton, and lick their old Dutch boots;
and right there, settlers, if you are not
and do not think you are-degener-
ate sons Of worthy sires, you'I draw
the line.
Therefore, when the wealthy and
the strong meet you behind the secre-
tsry of the interior and say: "The valid
decision of Secretary Cox, the enforce
ment of which is due, shall not be en-
forced" when the wealthy and strong
meet you behind the supreme court and
say: "The favorable decision, which is
your due, on the matter of jurisdiction,
shall not be made;" when the wealthy
and the strong meet you behind the ex-
ecutiVe mansion and say: "The certain
laws you petitioned to have enforced,
the enforcement Of which is due, shall
not be enforced;" when, in the face of
all this, the wealthy and strong come
over from New Mexico to Stonewsll,
Colorado, and say: "Now you fellows,
get off from our Maxwell grant, -
then, settlers, is your opportunity. Be
equal to the occasion.
"Stiffen up the sinews, summon up
the blood, disguise fair nature with
hard-favored rage" and say: "You

Not only is the ''sound money" man
(unless he have q hoard of gold or gold
obligations) dissatisfied with present
conditions, but he, too, wants paper
money and fat and government bank
ing. There is this important and
fundamental difference, however. He
wants the government to give its fat,
Issue its paper and lends its support to
banking institutions for the benefit Of
a select coterie of bankers and finan-
ciers-the new aristocracy-while his
populist friend wants governmental
power to be used for the benefit of all
Of the people.
1t is from the ''sound money" men
that plans have emanated for letting
national banks issue notes to the full
face value of their bonds. 1t is they
who want more bonds and oppose pay
ing off old bonds, because, they con-
tend, these and more are needed as a
basis for necessary currency. It's they
who suggest that banks be allowed to
use bonds other than national upon
which to issue notes for circulation.
State bonds, county bonds, city bonds,
railroad bonds - almost any kind of
bonds will do. Some of the theorists
want the privileges restricted to ma
tionsl banks, others would include
state banks and allow them to issue
notes. But running through all these
schemes is the one same old monoto-
nous idea, that the many are to be bled
for the benefit of the few who may
gain these privileges. The masses are
not to be trusted with their own bust
ness, but the wise few will instead con-
stitute themselves gurdian of the dear
people, and relieve them from the anx-
iety and labor of doing their own bank
ing. And the dear people should be
willing to pay 2 per cent. month in
gratitude at having escaped such
burden.
This idea of public incapacity comes
out with great regularity in the Social
Economist of New York city, whose
editor, Prof. Gunton, while throwing
his columns open for general discus
sion, never wearies of asssiling the
"6atists." In the August number he
advocates q government banking sys-
tenn as an adjunct to the maintenance
Of the gold standard. He wants a fed
eral bank established with branches
'after the model of the banks devised
in 1871 by Hamilton and Morris, and
in 1916 by Madison, Gallatin and Dal-
las" The functions of such bank
shall be ~ to maintain and enforce
the redemption of all bank notes-in
gold; ~ to insure the treasury of the
United States against run for gold;
(3) "to promote low and equal rates of
interest throughout the United States
and freedom, elasticity and energy in
productions" (4) "to attract foreign
trade by presenting to foreign mer-
chants an institution of as great power
to loan bank credit in all parts
of the globe as any in the world"
Eliminate the gold-bug objects and
conditions of this plan. Then increase
the number of federal banks; make

be enforced and thus knock out a su
preme court decision that the com.
pany we'll knew would be favorable. y
Nevertheless, the supreme court did
not, contrary to the report Of Com
missioner Sparks, decide that the de.
cision of Secretary Cox In the Maxwell
grant case was not final and in full
force at the time the Elkins' survey OF
1877 was ordered. Hence, that survey
was just as unauthorized and unlaw-
full after the supreme courts decision
In the Maxwell grant case as it was
before that decision had its untimely
birth. / told the settlers this, and
l told them still to hold up for the
valid decision of Secretary Cox in the
Maxwell grant case under which they
had acquired their homestead and pre-
emption rights. And when President
Cleveland, through M. p. Pels, Esq,
manager Of the Maxwell Grant COM
pany, told the settlers 1 was mislead-
ing them, he uttered a fsIsehood, and
when he thus told the settlers through
Pels to submit to the supreme court
decision he told them to submit to gu.
preme court crime.
MORE MANSION CRIME.
But President Cleveland, / admit,
did tell the settlers through M. p. PelS,
one good solid truth, namely: "The
enforcement of law is due alike to the
poor and the weak, the wealthy and
the strong" Of course it is. But the
question the settlers for years had been
trying to have answered was this: Can
the poor and weak procure the "due"
enforcement of law when the wealthy
and strong are opposed to its enforce
ment in their behalfH Secretary La
mar had answered, ''no;" President
Cleveland had answered, "no;" the
supreme court had answered, "no."
Still, the settlers, with democratic
hopefulness-for the two precincts here
are democratic mass meeting
at Stonewall and petitioned President
Cleveland, June 5, 1895, for the en-
forcement Of certain laws as q bar to
their impending eviction. The presi-
dent Of the settlers mass meetings, +.
B. Chaplin, received a letter dated
June 10, 1895, from "E. Womsck, chief
clerk" informing him that his letter
"asking that certain laws be enforced" :"
had been referred from executive
mansion" to the secretary of the in
terror, and that the secretary had re-
ferred said letter to the commissioner
Of the general land office that is, as
has since trsnspired to the pigeon
hole. The executive mansion, by this
contemptuous, indirect, sneaking re-
fusal to enforce certain laws is guilty
Of the high crime of violating its oath
to support the constitution and lis there
fore obnoxious to impeachment. 1t is
such procedure as this that provokes

More Books on Hawaii,

Lieutenant Lucien Young has one
on hand and now we clip from the
Hongkong Telegraph the following:
"We hear that one OF the exiles from
the late Hawaiian troubles in Jan
uary last, has been recuperating in
South China. He has been devoting
his idle moments in compiling three
pamphlets on the Islands, called,
respectively-"The results from
seventy years missionary labours on
the Hawaiian Islands," SIX months
in Doles's Bastille" and "Food for
Patriotic Hawaiians." Judging from
the tenor of these papers they were
written by a man son the spot" so
to speak, and not from hearsay.
The lives OF honest thinking men
we're jeopardized under the tyranny
OF a despotic semi-religious Oil
gsrchy which has been posing under
the misnomer OF a Republic" and
openly defying the rescue by even
Great Britain or her suffering sub
jects. However, there is every
reason to hope that the mist that.
would seem now to be slowly but
surely rising will reveal the dawn of
lasting peace for Hawaii" The
reference is evidently to e. @. Crick.

Captain Mahany takes the Helen
Brewer to sea with a mixed crew.
He supplied the desertion vacancies
with japanese. Captain Mahany
is always popular ashore, but has
the usual troubles of deep water
masters with men. He went out
of here with the Fong Suey once
with all but three of his men
screaming and curs'ug in irons,
after fight that made the scuppers
run with blood. United States
bluejackets helped him on that
occasion. When asked if he feared
the desperate gang, Captain
Mahany merely remarked that he
had their key to their stomachs
and that they would soon be tanned.
There was no more trouble. On
another voyage sailor tried to
murder Mahany with knife and
his whiskers hide an ugly scar that
came very near ending his career. |
A mate shot and wounded the |
sailor. Two Brewer sailors who |
have been at the hospital were
taken aboard today.
On Sunday last Mr.. Johnson and |
H. NJ. Dow took spin to Pearl |
Harbor in Mr.. Johnson's sail-boal.

After lunch both boats sailed out
into the lagoon. Captain Curtis of
the Spray was SO confident of his
boat winning that he hung out a
drag on the stern. Mr.. Johnson's I
boat however, forged ahead and
Curtis was compelled to draw in
his drag. He was finally beaten
and acknowledged the same. In

Spray did not return to town, and
now he is wondering whether his
for an ocean race will be
accepted. The money is available
he says and on his sweeping chal- |
lenge being accepted will be put up.
