portance to US; that the United
states can play the dog in the
manger act as long as it pleases.
Possibly Mr.. Quincy is safe in his
supposition, but We doubt it. The
opportunity has been offered for
the United States to clinch its hold
on this country, and if it will not
accept it the American people will
sooner or later be obliged to take
their chances for the future. Should
the United States refuse to assist
in laying a cable, the American
politicians ought to have enough
sound sense to realize that Hawaii
will not continue to wait on them
and forever refuse advances from
other countries as has practically
been done in the past. 1t is much
the same with annexation. 1t is a
plain, straightforward proposition,
and if the United States will not
accept our advances, the only thing
that remains is to look elsewhere.
This country cannot afford to jeop-
ardize its interests to suit the fancy
of any other nation. 1t is only a
matter of few years when the
United States will be obliged to
come to. something more definite
than its present attitude, and will
be obliged to decide whether they
will take it or leave it."

facture.

In a most proper manner the
people of Honolulu have given
formal voice to their appreciation
of the improved educational facili-
ties resulting from the purchase Of
the Bishop premises and the estab-
lishment of frst-class high school
in this country. Aside from the
good advice given the people and
the children in the addresses made
Friday, it should be remembered
that in making the most of the OPP
portunities which this new build
ing affords, the children OF this
country are paying tribute to the
memory of Mr.. and Mrs. Bishop.
A return of faithful study, the
building up of character of true
manhood and womanhood is the
price the former owners named for
this country to pay, which should
lead mothers, fathers, teachers and
scholars to join forces to carry out
the principle OF their philanthropic
ideas.

Mr.. GLADSTONE, in a message"
to the American people, expresses
the opinion that when the United
States adopts free trade it will be
the greatest commercial power OF
the world and will control 60 per
cent of the worlds carrying trade.
While the opinion OF the Grand
Old Man is to be respected, it will
be long time before he can bring
the American working people to
acquiesce to his theory.

MORMON MUSIC.

1t is a boast of the Mormons of
Salt Lake City that they can pro-
duce with home talent, and more
acceptably, any opera that the city
of New York can produce. Visit
ors to that place state that there is
good ground for the claim. The
Mormon leaders have always en-
couraged musical education, and
the great homemade organ has
done much to encourage musical
taste. In this respect we have the
singular fact that these polygam-

"DEAD WEIGHTS" OF so
GETTY.

"But, conservative newspaper.
men think that the Gazette Com,
pany is too previous in introducing
the expensive linotypes." So says
some one of the antediluvian or.
acles of an evening contemporary
in a pleasant little notice of the
latest advance step taken by the
publishers of this paper. So far
as this expression of opinion ap-
plies to the business affairs of the
corporation referred to, we take it
from whence it comes, like a kick
from a jackass. The only thing
that gives it any Importance is the
fact that in general tone it is fair
sample of the ideas of a small class
of people with which this as we'll
many other communities is unfor-
tunately blessed; a class that wants
to ride in stage coaches because
their forefathers of the hamlet did !;
a class that always stands in the
rear rank and croaks its doleful
wall at every sign OF progress that
entails any diversion from the an
cient mannerisms and customs of
past years. This is the class that
harps against the work of the Labor
Commission, asserting in the wise
and profound language of the
water-logged pessimist, that a Labor
Commission is useless in Hawaii,
where the labor problems are of
vital importance, Notwithstanding
every nation, state and munich
pality making any pretention
of being awake to the questions of
the hour regards the investigation
of labor problems as one of the
items demanding constant atten-
ton and careful investigation. 1t
is a class that either dams with
faint praise or openly 'cries down"
an aggressive move to develop new
and build up the coun-
try by the introduction of active,
progressive, intelligent men.
The satellites of this "Ancient-of-
Days" clan, for want of a better
name, call themselves "conserva-
tive" They are conservative in
much the same sense that barna-
cles and sea weed constitute the
element in steam nav
igation. They are worse than a
dead weight, as they gather all
the moss and mildew in the close
and are constantly looking
for more. We don't know that
here is any prospect of a revival
among these people, but the ex-
Derience OF the past has shown
hat their gloomy vaporings are
sooner or later forced to give way
and the authors left to croak and
nildew in their gloomy corners,
while the world of progress goes on
and forgets that they ever lived.

EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN.

Although many women are in
clined to be erratic on the subject
of their present inequality with the
masculine gender, the last census
of the United States gives figures
which indicate that so far as earn
ing their own living is concerned,
the women have no reason to
regard themselves as own-trodden.
A comparative table of the women
engaged in 'gainful occupations"
in 1880 and 1890 shows an increase
that is almost startling, and judg-
ing from the remarks passed by
some of the more enthusiastic re-
formers it would seem that there
must be something wrong some
where. The total of working people
in 1890 was 22,735,661, of which
1890, $50 were males and 1914
I'll females. This is is gain of
l, 267 ,554 women since 1880, or
rate OF increase nearly three and
one-half times as great as the in
crease of working men. During
the decade ending with 1890 the
women engaged as architects in
creased from l to %; artists and
teachers of art, 412 to 10,S10;
clergymen, 67 to 1885; lawyers,
5 to 20S; Government officials,
Federal, State and local, Ala
to 1875; journalists, 35 to SSS.
In 1880 there were no lady chem
lists, engineers or veterinary sur
geons, while the returns for 1890
give the women 46,177 and two
representatives respectively in these
occupations. There is not one of
the leading professions in which
the lady representatives have not
increased over 200 per cent, and in
many instances the increase reaches
a much larger figure. The greatest
interest which men have in these
figures is the effect upon the price
of labor, resulting from this UMPIRE
cedented invasion of the women.

AS pumping is one of the
most common uses to which
wind motors are put, the
method OF communicating
motion to the pump is very
important and has received
our closest attention, and the
defect created in most wind
mills of racking themselves to
pieces in a severe wind has
been obviated in the Aermotor
by means of back gearing, so
that the wheel makes about
three turns to one stroke of
the pump or enough so that
the wheel may run at its natural
speed, unrestrained in any
moderate wind, without doing
violence to the pump or its
connections. This enables us
to give the pump a long stroke
instead ofthe quick, jerky, short
strokes Of ordinary wind mills.
This means that the valves are
not worked so harshly in open
ing and closing and that the
wear and tear is greatly dimin-
ished, while the piston rod
speed is increased, and conse-
quently the pumping capacity
is increased. The back gear
ing, together with the extra
holes for crank pins in the
crank wheel also makes it pos
sible to use with the Aermotor
any ordinary size of pump
cylinder If a wind motor is
not sensitive TO the direction of
the wind much of its efficiency
is lost.
The ease with which wind
mill faces up to the wind de-
ponds on weight of the mill,
the kind and condition of the
bearings on which it pivots and
the comparative leverage of
wheel and tail. In the matter
Of leverage, the advantage en-
joyed by the Aermotor over
common wind mills will
be made apparent by the
fact that the center of the
wheel is only twelve inches
from the mast or center on
which it turns while that of the
best known wheel is thirty
inches, requiring as is easily
seen two and one-half times as
long or large a tail to balance
the same sized wheel. The
Aermotor presents one-half
the surface to the wind; it is
that this other wheel
must have five times the tail
surface to make it face the
wind equally well thereby
greatly increasing the liability
to wreck in a storm. The
mere fact that we have placed
$50 more Aermotors on the
Stands is sufficient guarantee
Of their superiority and desir-
ability by those who want a
motor that looks after itself.

"MERGENTHALERS" IN USE.

The sun do move and though
the Hawaiian Islands may be the
dumping off place" of the Pacific
ocean,its leading publishing house
the Hawaiian Gazette Company
takes no back seat in the line OF
modern progress. In its editorial
columns this morning the AID
VERTISER presents to its read
ers the first lines ever set up on
a typesetting machine in the Ha'
waiian Islands. The ADNER.
TISER is the first paper in the Ha,
waiian Islands in which the type
from a typesetting machine has
ever been used and the Hawaiian
Gazette Company is the first and
Only concern to introduce into this
country the latest device Tor eco
nomical and rapid typesetting-
and thereby hangs tale.
TheHawaiian Gazette Company
has purchased two Mergenthaler
LinOtypes of the Mergenthaler
Linotype Company of New York
City. One of these is now up and
ready for business and its lines o
type will soon grace the columns
of the PACIFIC COMMERCIAL
ADVERTISER, the HAWAIIAN
GAZETTE, also the KUOKOA,
and PLANTERS MONTHLY. all
being publications issued regular
ly from this Office. Nothing sue
ceeds like success and the Gazette
Company is in line to win, by Civ
ing its patrons the benefit of the
latest mechanical devices which
bright inventive heads have
thought out to aid the printer in
supplying the demands of the pub
lie In this instance, possibly,
the public does not see where it
comes in for the benefit, neverthe-
less newspaper readers appreciate
a new dress of type that brings out
the reading matter clean and clear
every morning and does away with
the poor impressions and general
murky appearance given by type
subject to years of wear and tear.
The "Mergenthalers" give anew
dress" with every issue of the pa
per, and when the metal has once
done its work in the press 1T is
thrown back into the melting pot
to come out again the next day as
fresh and bright as newly cast
type just from the foundry, thus
giving the newspaper a neat ap-
pearance that is comforting and
pleasing to the reader.
While the "Mergenthaler" is a
''labor saving" machine to a GER
tain extent, it is so in much the
same sense as the railroads that
did away with the employment of
the stage driver, but gave him, as
well as many others, employment
at better wages in other and more
acceptable lines of work. The
are generally credited
with taking the place of five men,
yet wherever they have been put
into use they have tended to in
crease the volume of work and also
raise the rate of wages among
those engaged in the printing
trade.
This being the fact the Gazette
Company looks with unalloyed
qualification on its achievement in
providing itself with a complete
equipment for publishing its first
class newspapers which have been
the leading publications of this
are the leading publica
tons of this country and which
will continue to be the leading
publications of this country.

The appointment of J. Alfred
Magoon to succeed Judge Cooper in
the Circuit Court will meet with
the approval of the members of the
legal fraternity as well as the peo-
pie at large. Mr.. Magoon has
gained a reputation as one of the
successful lawyers of the country,
and although this is his first APP
pointment to judgeship, he is by
no means untried in his position,
having been called to the bench on
cases in which the acting judge has
been disqualified. Judge Magoon
will hold the confidence of the peo-
pie, as J. A. Magoon private citi-
zen has done. The selection is a
good one.

WAGES IN JAPAN.

During his recent visit 10 Japan,
W. n. Armstrong collected consid-
cradle material for a report ON the
labor and industries of Japan with
the end in view of showing to what
extent the prices and systems of
labor may affect the relations of
that country with these islands.
1t was the intention to incorporate
the facts obtained in a report of
the Labor Commission but the ter
mination of the Commission by
law prevented its presentation.
Consul General McIvor of Yoka-
hama kindly favored him with the
scale of wages prevailing in jap
Ill. The foreign merchants also
furnished statistics which show
that the scale of wages is rising
III that country, and it is the belief
of those who are watching the in
dustrial growth of that country,
that before many years there will
ne a considerable advance in the
wages of skilled labor. A num-
Der of the foreign business con-
Germs in the treaty ports are grad
ually advancing the wages of GER
tain employees, particularly those
who become proficient in the for
eign methods of doing business.
The Japanese have never been a
trading people, merchants for a
long time being regarded as little
better than thieves. Even today
they are classed below the farm
crs. But in this as in many other
ways the influence of the foreign
is gradually changing
public opinion. The japanese
take kindly to the example set by
progressive foreigners; they are
quick to learn and always ready
to accept instruction that will re-
suit in financial improvement.
At the present time the real value
of labor in manufacturing and
commercial pursuits is unknown.
1t is the general belief, however,
among those acquainted with the
people, that there will be a grad
ual rise in wages. This will be
brought about by economic laws.
The effect of the late war with
China was to rapidly increase the
price of many articles and in not
a few communities, the rate of
daily wages. Should Japan adopt
the gold standard, there would
be a doubling of wages
as reckOned on the silver standard
which now prevails. 1t is to be
hoped that Mr.. Armstrong; report
will be made public as the tenden-
cy of the labor market in the East
is a matter of vital Importance to
the industrial future of this
country.

normon Elder Arrested for Unlawful
Capitalization

SALT LAKE, April 27.-The arrest of
John B. Beck, the Mormon millionaire
and mine owner on charge of unlawful
cohabitation, for having three wives, has
created such sensation as has not
aroused the people of this territory since
1890.
The prominent Mormons next booked
by rumor for the drag-net under the Ed
munds- Tucker act are John Henry Smith,
president of Utah's constitutional con-
vention; HI. j. Grant, one of the Twelve
Apostles and prominent capitalist;
Hiram b. Clawson. bishop, and o. +.
Whitney, historian author and Dish OPP of
the church. All of these men are rich,
powerful socially and politically, and it
is alleged that they have been living with
two or more wives earch.
The arrest of Beck. to be followed. as
alleged, by the arrest of these prominent
members of the church of Latter Day
Saints, is believed to be the first move in
a game which has for it's object the defeat
of equal suffrage and consequently the
constitution now oeing framed and
statehood. 1t is alleged, and on the best
grounds, that the insertion of an equal
suffrage plank in the constitution by an
overwhelming Mormonmaj ority is for the
purpose of gaining absolute control of the
new state by the Mormons through and
by the vote of their women. That'this
move is to be defeated. if possible is
evnced by the practical fight they are
making on the oft-repeated assertion that
polygamy is dead in Utah.
