An Aggressive Foreign Policy.


 There ought to be no misapprehen-
 sion as to the significance of the "patri- otic" outcries emanating from members of the senate and house of representa- tives over what they call the royalist revolt in Hawaii. They are in aid of an aggressive foreign policy" which does not stop with the Sandwich Islands, but comprehends in it's loose-mtndedness the absorption of every tieighboring and adjoining island or country which now lies under what seems to the "pa- triotic'' the ba1eful shadow of foreign flag, These absorptionists are great admirers of Great Britain's enterprise in acquiring outlying lands and peoples They sometimes speak of the national trait as greed" but 1t is clear that they will never be truly proud of their own country until It's maw for territory which is now the property of other peo- ple is quite as yoraciois as that Of Great Britain. The assaults upon the Hawaiian policy of the administration are inspired by this desire for exten- sion, the qualification of which would transform the nation which is now the most potent influence in the world for universal peace into a frowning militia ry power. Inviting war both by being constantly prepared for 1t and by its aggressions.
 The plain truth is that Mir. Cleveland has no Hawaiian policy, and the att tempts to make the country believe that he is plotting for a restoration of the monarchy are not honest. Like all honorable men whose minds are not disturbed by dreams of territorial ex- tension, and whose patriotism has de-. veloped beyond the primitive stage when it can be gratified by a satisfac- tory count of the nations armed men, he believes that the part played by Americans in office in the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy was disgrace full He has therefore stated that the influence of this country was wrongful ly exerted against a weak power, and that the wrong which was done by the agents of the government should, as far as possible, be repaired. We venture to say that MT Cleveland's position in this unfortunate episode will, in time, De I6SdTueu dS OuG Ol tle HiOSL Guul-t ageous and honorable acts of singu- larly courageous man. If congress had risen to the high plane to which the president invited it, the republic would have taught the older nations of the world that a government may possess the high moral quality which lead 1t to recognize and repair it's own wrong-a quality which distinguishes the highest types of individual men from those be- heath them.

and take the ten-cent tariff off of wool. We did 1t and now that same wool is being sold to northern knit shirt and cloth factories for from six to fifteen cents. With six-cent wool the mills are throwing back our cotton. Who would not give two cents a pound more for woolen shirts or cloth than for the same things made of cottonW
 "How much cotton will this throw out of the market?" I asked.
 "A million bales, sir. A friend of mine who has been in the New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts mills, writes me that cheap foreign wool is hurting the south more than the north. It will reduce the demand for cotton a million bales he says, and send the price of cotton down to three and one- half cents to our cotton farmers Then see what idiots we have been on the sugar question:
 What have you done?"
 "Why, we southern men voted solidly against the bounty on sugar. Sugar was growing prodlgiously in Florida, southern Alabama, Louisiana and Tex as. It was spreading all along the Cuff of Mexico from Lake Charles to Corpus Christi. It was going up the Brazos In five years, with the bounty which Germany kept on till she now makes sixty million dollars worth of sugar annually-I say in five years this sugar would have taken two million bales of cotton out of our way and put fifty mil lion dollars worth of sugar in its place. Think of it, we southerners have cut off the demand for cotton a million bales in the north and increased our produce two million bales in the south?
 What made you do it?' asked.
 "Oh, politics, Dog-on silly, idiotic politics. We thought we must back the democratic party. and now they've swamped themselves in the north and made paupers of us in the south"
 And what do you propose to do?"
 why, let us put that wool tariff back and let our cheap cotton take the place of Asiatic wool, and then put that su- gar bounty on again and send sugar into the cotton fields, Editorials in the papers and prayers in the churches wont help us now. We must quit poll tics and use our brains"

\ The Stock Market Was Dull and Devoid of Interest.
 New York, Feb. 7--Not for many weeks has the stock market been
 so dull and devoid of interest as it was to-days Leading operators practically ! suspended trading, and even small spec
 ulators withdrew for the tirne being. In
 the initial dealing the market was some what higher, but the rise induced re- alizations and a reaction ensued. t4en- eral Electric declined 11s to 281s, and the remainder of the list 1s to 1s per cent. Near the close there was frac- tionai rally.
 Among the specialties New England l,moved up 1 1s to SIS, Norfolk and Vest ern common declined E to 3, while the
 preferred rose A to 1874 The placing of this company in the hands of receiv- CTS had no particular effect either here or in London, as it's affairs have been going from bad to worse for some time past. It was thought that London would come in as a seller on the news of the appointment of receivers, but such was not the case, and the opera tions for foreign account were quite un- important.
 Local speculators held aloof owing to the uncertainty in regard to legislation on pending financial measures by com gress and the desire to wait the decis- ion of the treasury department on the proposed new government loan. It is believed that action on the latter is imminent and that business will revive within the next few days. The market closed steady in tone.
 The bond market was lower. The sales were $S90,000.

Frank Admissions in an Interview on
 Cotton and Sugar.
 [Eli Perkins in the American Economist. i
 I have visited several old sugar plan- tatlons in Florida during the last week. The great freeze which dropped the mercury twenty degrees below freezing point from Palatka to St, Augustine has frozen a third of the orange crop and killed all the old trees. The calam- ity brings sadness to all Florida. When asked Judge Hunt of Palatka how he felt about it he said:
 "Thls frost has been calamity to our state, but it stops with the orange groves. Over-production was killing the orange industry and Providence has come to our rescue. But there is another over-production in the south in a worse condition than the orange crop"
 What is that?" I asked.
 ''It is cotton, sir. Our farmers are now getting three and a half and four cents pound for what we used to get ten cents for, and it is going lower eve- ry day. When I think how foolish we have acted it makes me sick We had the chance to save our selves offered us and we threw it away. We are now convinced of our own fool 
 Well, what have you done?" I asked.
 "We could not have done worse" said the judge. We know now that cheap wool is a substitute for cotton. That is, cheap cotton was substituted for wool, but now cheap wool is a substi- ute all over the north for cotton. Cheap Thibet, Asiatic and Australian wool used to cost from sixteen to twen- .y-five cents. We southerners thought [ was smart to stab the wool farmers

Comb, of the drug firm of Perrine u
McComb, was arrested on charge
of selling poisons and compromising
prescriptions, as he is not a pharma'
cist. A few days previous to his
arrest. MI. Perrine, who, by the way
is one of the best pharmacists IN the
state, went away for a few days
rest, as he was feeling poorly, and,
while he was gone, what seems
like o "job" was "put up" on the
firm. We are informed that parties
were sent from Pilkington's drug
store for certain articles, one of the
parties saying he was sent by Pix
ingion's pharmacist. MI. McOomb
endeavored 20 accommodate his
neighbor, and, as a consequence, he
suffered for his kindness. The time
of the trial arrived, but the prosecu'
ton was not ready for trial, and the
case was postponed. Before the
second trial, however, the firm OF
Perrinc & McComb concluded il was
better to pay II light fac than to
employ attorneys, so it was arranged
that they pay fine of SO, which
they did. The case looks more like
case of persecution than OF prose
cution.
