Destiny Of the south.

As things are now in the southern
states the man does not live that can
make money in farming there. The
price of cotton has dropped for a quarter
of a century with a regularity that
eliminates the element of chance and
points to some law of markets that is
cut of the reach of fertilizers or any de-
vice of agriculture. 1t is this law that
the planters are looking for.
There is a fine spirit of scientific dis
coy ary abroad in the southern states. III
it does not amount to a great intellec-
tual awakening, then the signs that
have always attended popular move
ments 60 not apply in this instance.
1t is the manifest destiny of the south
to proclaim some cardinal principles OF
political economy in the near future. II
might eem extravagant to say that the
hope OF the nation rests with the south,
bat in these days of political and com.
mercial CONSERVATION much more ex.
travagant things are afloat in the prints.

BEFORE SLEEPING.

Now Is the dead OF night, and | must sleep.
But first, my soul, ii thou dost aught recall
Wherein thou hastdone III, l bid thee weep
And pray Gods tender mercy on thee fall.
Purge thyself clean of whatso bitter hate
Thou hast for them that wrong thee: sink
thy pride,
Nor deem thou standest in a higher state
Than those whom God thy happier chance
denied.
Be all for heaven; think life draws near the
close;
Give 10 repentance thy last conscious breath;
For more and more this mortal weakness grows
That pledges thee TO take the form OF death
And sleep awhile. What if in dreams the door
OF life should shut, and thou return no more!

people on account of wages and
supplies and the greater induce
ment for tourists to visit the ISL

the construction of modern hotels

of local ca italists have had suffi-
cient enterprise or pluck to under
take the construction Of such
building.
1t is practically a year since
our Victoria friends filed their
application with the Executive for
this franchise. II local capital is
ready to build the road why
has it not como forward with an
application for charter. 1t would
unquestionably be given the pre-
ference. Evidently local capital
lists are not ready to undertake it,
and are we then to be deprived of
the benefit which the construc-
ton of the road will confer upon
this community?

before they die, and some of
them are great curioSities in
their way. Among the many
curious legacieS made lately is
that of a ChriStiana man who
directs that his whole fortune
shall be expended in bicycles.
A Norwegian newspaper which
does not give itself up to the
comic element relates that a
Dutch lawyer, named NikoISon,
bequeathed the whole of his
property to trustees, to be en-
ployed in the purchase of bicy-
cIeS for the use of children at
tending school, while part of
the money is to 60 towards
paying the teacher to train the
boys in bicycle riding.
The validity of the will has
been disputed by the sons of
the teStator, who refuse to &C
knowledge it, so that it is still a
question of doubt whether the
children will reap the benefit
of the strange bequeSt. That
the teStator was sincere enough,
and that he recognized in the
wheel untold blessings which
might have escaped the OBJ
SerVation of minds of less
acumen, the concluding portion
of the will should 90 to prove.
1t says

yarn in the hot sun or in the
biting east wind. Ny machine,
unlike a horse, never SHE'D once;
and in my drives | have had no
need to intruSt life and limb
to the tender mercies of a
coachman."
Now that lawyer had good
hard, solid sense and plenty of
it, in fact, a good deal more of
it than most lawyers are credit
ed with, and yet not more than
many boys and girls in Homo
lulu have, for are there not
many of the latter who are
spending their whole fortunes
in purchasing a bicycle and they
are wise in spending their
money on something that will
give them their moneys worth
every time.
The bicycle of the Khedive
of Egypt is a gorgeous ma
chine, almost entirely covered
with silver plating but if anyone

that it is allowing its temper to
get the better OF its judgment.
1t is not pursuing the discussion
in regard to the railway charter
with the calmness and prudence
that ought to characterze u con-
troversy of this nature. If there
are any objections of nature that
would warrant the Senate in re-
jecting the bill, the Star should
produce them.
The exemptions as to taxation,
limited to the two years during
which the road will be under con-
struction, is certainly not suffi-
cient reason; nor is the exemp-
ton from custom duty a very
important matter, as the material
will be almost wholly purchased
in the United States and by treaty
will be free of duty. The plans and
specifications have to be submit
ted to the Minister of the Interior
for his approval, before any work
can be done on the road. This in
plain English means that the
Minister must approve the plans

cobstruction), before the COM
pany can do one stroke Of
work, and it is question in our
minds, as to whether this provi-
sion is not altogether too far
reaching. The Minister would
have it in his power to refuse his
approval, and thereby actually
prevent the construction of the
road.
The interest of the public as to
rates and service is also, in our
judgment, fully protected, as the
company's tables require the con-
sent of the Executive Council.
The Council can surely be depend
ed on to see that the community
will not be imposed upon.
The company undertakes to
have fifteen miles of the road con-
structed within two years, and IN
operation, and the service has to
be approved by the Executive,
otherwise they forfeit the right to
use any streets not then occupied
by them. The success of the pro-
ject as business proposition de-
ponds upon the company construct
ing and operating at least fifteen
mlIes, and no better safe guard in
this connection than their own in
terest is required.
1t has been suggested that the
company provd~ a satisfact Try
bond for II reas unable amount that
they will begin construction with

from this mornings Advertiser
that there is N objection to
give u bond tat they will

after they are in possession of an

have proper assurance that they

According to tho report of the
United States Steamboat inspec-
ton Service, the loss of life in the
United States by disasters to
steamers is only one in 2,708, 1888
passengers carried. Under the
law of 1852 the average loss of life
was one person to every $50, 181
persons carried. The large de-
crease in fatality is credited to
the law of 1871, which greatly
improved the service. The loss
of life on steam vessels last year
was 1868, an increase of 1913 over
the average for the past eighteen
years, This increase was caused
by the loss of the Colima off the
Pacific coast. The foregoing
figures show that it Is comparative
ly safe to 60 to sea in steamers
nowadays.

RumOrs at Washington That Four Min
listers VIII Be Displaced.

WASHINGTON, August 25.-There is
a rumOr in circulation in Washington
that President Cleveland and Secre-
tary Olney have decided upon a sweep
ing change in diplomatic offices in
foreign countries represented by GER
tain distinguished Democrats. This
rumOr has it that Ambassador Eustis
is to be recalled from his post of duty
in France; that Minister DENLY is to
be asked to resign his post as the gov
ernments representative in China;
that Minister Dun at Japan is certain
to be recalled, and that ex-senator
Ransom is not to be re-appOinted as
the governments representative to
Mexico.
In the event that this rumor is true,
President Cleveland will, of course,
have four i'm mpOrtant missions to dole
out to Democrats that will aid in
strengthening the position taken by
this administration in dealing with
important international questions.
The statement is made that for
some time Mr.. Cleveland has not been
satisfied with the course followed by
Ambassador Eustis; that Minister
DENLY has not strictly followed this
China, land that Minister Dun at
Japan has been in danger of dispIace-
ment for several months past.
EX Senator Ransom may or may
not care to go back to Mexico, but
should he desire to do so he is likely
to be disappointed. His probable
successor is Louis Baker, this Gov
ernment's present representative to
Nicaragua, Costa Rica and San Sal
vadOr. There are few State Depart
ment officials of any prominence in
Washington, so that the various
rumors in circulation regarding the
probable changes cannot be verified

But short time ago, the ADvER-
TIsER published "flibuster" story
taken from the Chronicle. w. G.
Morrow was named as the man
who was to lead the adventurers to
victory. The Examiner, not wish
ing to be outdone, detailed a man
to make further inquiries; the re-
suit of his investigation appears
below:
"OL q of the best contrived and most
dangerous filibustering expeditions
ever fitted out on American soil was
discovered in San Francisco yes
terday by that active and
slayer of thousands, Admiral Horn
brook, who first gained fame at
the celebrated battle of Wei-Hai- Wei,
where he sank half a dozen ships that
came up again in time to fight sure
enough battle within a few days, and
killed Admirals and Captains with a
magnificent disregard for human life.
His bloodthiIstiness was incOmpre-
hensibie until it developed that the
Admirals and Captains were sailing
their scuttled ships and fighting along
just as if nothing had happened.
fAdmiral Hornbrook, however, was
to the fore again yesterday. This time
he developed a local plot to restore
the deposed Queen of the Hawaiian
Republic, whom he calls Queen Lii
for short, to her throne. With the
same disregard for treasure that he
has shown in the thick Of battle for
human life and Chinese cruisers, he
announced the prospective distribu-
tiOn of twenty seven millions OF dol
lars in land, money and goods, to two
hundred bold spirits like himself, who
were going to form the invading army
that would destroy the Island Re
public so completely that even tissue
paper and square-faced gin could not
put it together again.
"'The proposition, wrote Mr.. Horn
brook, lis to capture the five steam
ers that ply between the islands and
then approach Honolulu and capture
the revenue offices and bank of Bishop
81 Co., there being between three hun
dred and five hundred thousand dol
lars in the revenue boxes and the
bank"
''The plan of campaign was to take
the fire alarm system and then the
telephone system OI hohOlutu' Inc
messenger boys it seems, were to be
left unmolested, and the expedition
would take chances on the boys who
deliver fish and meat and fruit. The
police station was next to fall.
"Admiral HOrnbrook, Mr.. Morrow,
the commander-in- chief OF the eXpe-
dition, explained that the policemen's
arms and ammunition were on the
upper floors of the police station. His
skill and wisdom in the art of war
satisfied him that the policeman
would not go upstairs after their guns
and the army would be safe. Mean
while various spies were to be Grip
ping two Gattling guns. The PrOvis-
ional Government has six of the these,
but the Admiral did not want to over
work his spies. In the course of this
revolution of Hornbrook the First-in

with the expedition. The idea of the
attorney is that when the revolution
is raging and the Provisional Govern
ment's army is being driven back,
back. and still further back, and the
filibusters are picking Off the gunners
at the palace, the attorney can go
before the Supreme Court of the
Islands and interpOse demurrer, sue
out writ of injunction and procure
restraining order against President
Dole and the rest of the Provisional
Government, prohibiting them from
opposing the advance of the revOlu-
tionists. 1t seems that, according to
Admiral HornbrOOk, throngs of men
came up to MOrrow's office, each with
Sl6 in his inside pocket with which to
pay for the privilege of restoring the
dusky queen to the throne of Kameha-
meha. The sixteen dollars was not
necessarily for publication, but merely
as an evidence of good faith. If man
didn't want to drop the sixteen dol
lars that way he had the option of
buying a gold brick, or guessing which
walnut shell of three little ball was
under. The bold leader, Mr.. Morrow,
is one of the men that Hornbrook
loves to write about. Just such man
as that devil may-care, jolly dog of
Chinese lieutenant, who killed six
cowardly gunners in six shots and
swore because the Japanese had shot

his account, as he explained, the
Queen is to be a mere fgurehead on
the thrOne-he enlisted Rudolph
Spreckels and had him plant a thou
sand stand of arms on the island of
Maui. Just what stand of arms is
and where it is better than a gun, is
not explained.
THE originality amounting to
genius the Admiral displayed when
the Yellow Sea became red with
blood, which overfiOwed the bulwarks
of those hapless Chinese warships, is
noticeable in this last design. Not
satisfied with taking a millionaire, a
of the two hundred daring ones SIS,
he also arranged to have an attorney

with the crimsoning sea.
SAT the critical moment, it seems,
Morrow began to doubt Hornbrook.
The incident is best related in the
destrOyer's own words:
Pulling out a bureau drawer he
pointed to a heavy revolver and said
significantly: That's for the man
who gives this away. I'll shoot him

The Sugar Bounty Case

WASHINGTON, August 24-Control-
Ter of the Treasury Bowler today re
ceived the last of the briefs in the
sugar bounty case, and has begun
work on the decision, which will
probably be rendered In the course of
a week. There is a strong belief at
the Treasury Department that Mr.
Bowler will overrule Mr.. Manderson's
motion, and will decide against the
payment OF the bounty.
