FINANCIAL PHASE OP NEUTRALITY
LAWS.

An interesting statement regard
ing the financial aspect of the neu-
trality laws Of the United States
has recently been made by Secre-
tary of State Olney in reply to q
query put to him by an official of
an American bank. The bank has
been requested to act as a deposi-
tory for contributions made by
Americans to assist the Cuban rev.
olutionists. The official states that
the people connected with the in
stitution are entirely In sympathy
with the Cubans, aud also for
financial advantage would like to
assist the revolutionary movement,
but they have desisted from giving
their reply until learning whether
by accepting the offer they will be
liable to prosecution under the
neutrality laws.

THE ELECTRIC RAILWAY AGAIN.

The evening paper that has off
and on, when policy made it a
necessity, espoused the cause
of the laboring men, expanded
on the glories of Hawaii as
the great Utopia for foreign in
vestors, and favored holding out
inducements to bring in foreign
capital, now comes ont with half
hearted clap at a measure which is
20 bring TO the city of Honolulu what
the paper has so long been signing for
and blowing its trumpet to obtain
foreign capital that will furnish
employment for the day laborer,
and furthermore create conditions
that will enhance the value of pro-
perty and bring more foreign cap
ital to the country.
Here we find the first test
of this pious desire to render
the workiDgman assistance and
modernize the country. In the
eyes of the day laborer, the
foreign capitalist and the pro-
gressive element of the community
our contemporary has been tried
and found wanting.
We do not presume to reflect
upon the Toronto system as applied
to Toronto or any other city of its
size and geographical position, but
it does not require long course of
argument to prove that the situa-
ton in Toronto is vastly different
from that which Honolulu invest
ors must face as is very we'll de-
monstrated In another column.
ooh, for an electric railway" has
been HonoIulu's song of woe since
the use of electricity for passenger
traffic has been proved a success.
For over five years the Tramcar
Company has been free to make
the change to electricity. But
nothing has been done. Why this
is go We will not attempt to state,
simply because no satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION has ever been offered.
Now the opportunity comes for
Honolulu To have its much coveted
electric railway, and with it comes
the objection of our "friend of the
laborer, foreign capital promoter,
ETC., etc." But the Kaleidoscope
policy of the "friend of the laborer,
foreign capital promoter, ETC., etc.,"
has little to do with the matter.
The question arises, are the men
who are pulling the strings of the
newspaper puppet prepared to go
on record as assisting in blocking
the wheels of progress in Honolulu
and in the country generally. We
believe in hedging the power of cor
porations so far as is required for
the protection of the public, but We
cannot-and will not, until we see
it-believe that the legislators or
the people of this country are pre-
pared to take action that will give |
black eye to the investment of
foreign or local capital for the
public veal.

prosecution by knowingly making
itself the depository for funds con-
tributed by American sympathizers
Of the Cubans is a point on which
opinions differ, and which can 1e
properly settled only by the adju-
dication of the proper court.
Should the bank take the step, the
secretary would be in duty bound
to bring the matter before the
courts for decision.
AS to the moral phase of the
question, Secretary Olney remarks
that the duty of the bank does not
admit of question and quotes the
following from a decision of the
Supreme Court which clearly out
lines a policy of "hands off,:
"The intercourse of this country
with foreign nations and its policy In
regard to them are placed by the Con-
stitution of the United States in the
cision upon these subjects are obli-
gatory upon every citizen OF the
Union. He is bound to be at war
with the nation against which the
war-making power has declared war,
and equally bound to commit no act
OF hostility against q nation with
which the government is in amity
and friendship. This principle is uni
versalIy acknowledged by the laws OF
nations 1t lies at the foundation of
all government, as there could be no
social order or peaceful relations be-
tween the citizens of different
countries without it. 1t is, how
ever, more empbatically true in
relation TO citizens of the United
States, for as the sovereignty resides
in the people, every citizen is por-
ton of it, and is himself personally
bound by the laws which the repre-
sentatives of the sovereignty may pass,
or the treaties into which they may
enter within the scope of their dele
gated authority. And when that au-
thority has plighted its faith to an
other nation that there shall be peace
and friendship between the citizens of
the two countries, every citizen of the
United States is equally and person
ally pledged. The compact Is made
by the department of the government
upon which he himself has agreed to
confer the power 1t is his own per-
sonal compact as portion of the SOW
ereignty in whose behalf it is made.
And he can do no act nor enter into
any agreement TO promote or encour-
age revolt or hostilities against the
territories of a country with which
our government is pledged by treaty
to be at peace, without breach Of
his duty as citizen, and the breach
of the faith pledged to the foreign
nation"
This action of the new Secre-
tary of State indicates that so far
as the administration of his Office
is concerned, the neutrality laws of
the United States will not be re-
garded as a dead letter, nor will
the Government make half-hearted
attempts in the enforcement.

Timely Copies

In the year 1858 japan
made treaty with the Amer
lean Government, it being the
first commercial treaty ever
drafted by the former country.
From then on, for several
years, the intercourse with
foreign powers brought to
Japan an increased volume Of
business, and still greater
benefits by demonstrating to
that country the distance be-
tween it and the more civilized
nations that the manner of
conducting their business in
terests with outside countries
were too crude.
Just at this time Eastern
mercantile houses commenced
directing their attention to-
wards Japan for closer bust
ness relations, but unfortu-
nately for them the report was
circulated that foreigners were
barred from doing any bust
ness in the Empire. Until 1868
Japan had very dark days,
but in that year the existing
form of government was over
thrown and a new dynasty
stepped into power with lead
ers who saw that the future of
the country depended on reel
procity.
Aswe are all familiar with their
more modern history, it is need
less to describe their phenomi-
nal success and the rapidity
with which they adopted the
manners and customs of their
Eastern competitors.
1t is to be hoped that their
recent success in overthrowing
the Chinese will not so assure
them of their being unable to
err, that they will stand in the
light of their own advancement.
People say this is the fn-de-
seicle aoe. but from the an
pearance of the streets of Ho-
nolulu, one would think that it
was the fn-de bicycle age.
Coming events cast their
shadows before thcm," as will
be plainly seen by the sale of
the MONARCH BICYCLE since its
arrival in Hawaii nei. When
we first considered taking the
for the Monarch, we,
of course, expected that it
would give the other bicycle
agents something to think
about. No one, if they had
been asked to give a conser-
vative estimate on the length
of time it would take US to sell
our first consignment OF
eleven wheels, would have
guessed it correctly, and when
we state that it took exactly
four days, we feel certain that
they would have asked to see
our books in order to verify
what we say. In fact, we are
glad we have the books to
show, otherwise we would be
tempted to doubt our own
word.
Such has been the pheno-
menal sale of the MONARCH
BICYCLE that we have been
compelled to take orders for
bicycles to arrive. This is a
point that we wish to impress
upon you, that whatever you
may wish in the way of a
Monarch as regards the diff
ferent models, pedals etc, we
will only be too glad to order
for you, but on account of the
volume of orders that are daily
accumulating in the factory, it
is impossible for them to turn
out the goods as fast as the
can sell the wheels, !
all these things
