TIE CUBAN RESOLUTIONS.

The recognition of the Cuban insur-
gents by the United States now rests
wholly within the discretion of Presi-
dent Cleveland. The concurrent reso-
buttons passed by Congress do not bind
the President TO any particular course.
They simply leave him free TO recog-
nize the belligarency of the Cubans or
let the matter remain just where it is.
They are an expression of sympathy
for the men now classed as rebels, and
amount to little more than a moral
benefit.
While there is no doubt that popu-
lar vote of the United States would de-
clare decidedly in favor of prompt rec
ignition, the question which President
Cleveland has TO pass upon is delicate
one. There are already claims against
the Spanish Government amounting to
some $4,000, 900 for damage done Am
erican sugar plantations by the Cubans,
and although opinions are divided as
to the final outcome, it is highly prob
able that by formal recognition of the
belligerents, Spain would be released
from any responsibility in connection
with these claims, even in event of final
victory. Another point to be considered
is that Spain could stop and search any
and all American vessels and seize con-
traband goods. This would bring about
a condition of affairs decidedly un-
savory TO American shipping interests.
Taking the situation as a whole. it
has now come TO the point where Am |
orleans can show TO what extent they
are willing 10 go down into their peck
etbooks in order to aid the Cubans in
gaining political liberty. The monied
interests of the country will undoubt-
eddy bring influence to bear upon the
President TO allow the matter to rest
where it is. President Cleveland has
never put himself on record for or
against the Cubans, and he is conse-
quently free TO act or file the resolu-
tons away in his innocuous desuetude
pigeon hole. Should he follow the lat
ter course, Cuban belligerency will be
dead so far as the present Congress is

THE FINANCE REPORT.

The report of the Minister of Finance
consists of four parts. First, twenty
SIX pages from the pen of the Minister
himself, then forty-six pages of tables
OF expenditures prepared by the Regis
trar of Public Accounts, followed by
25S pages of Custom House report, and
lastly. eighteen pages from the Post
master-General.
With the portion due to the Minister
Of Finance himself we are disappoint-
ed. We expected a budget-a financial
review with a statement of the income
for the next two years and what each
specific tax was likely to yield There
is no such statement We are told that
the current revenue is s1,70O, 900. but
not line Of detail nor a word as to the
possibilities of its increasing or de-
creasing. The Legislature must con-
unue to work in the dark, for they are
appropriating money and the Minister
of Finance gives them no clue as to
what the estimated income may be.

THE SOUDAN.

The English expedition into the Sou
dan is likely to end in disaster. Eng
/ land is only once again making the
same mistake of sending an inadequate
force 10 do a mighty work. Moreover
the bulk of the force being almost en-
tirely made up of Egyptian troops,
commanded and drilled, it is true, by
British officers, it is a doubt if such
troops will stand by when the time of
trial comes, and the bowling hordes of
fanatic Dervishes rush upon the
squares. 1t must be remembered that
it was all the flower of the British army
could do eleven years ago, to with
stand the attacks of just such fierce
fanatics.
The condition of the Soudan since
the death of the Mahdi has become
appalling. His successor, Abdulahi, is
an ignorant, vicious and evil man. The
moral condition of the whole province
is, according to Staten Bey, frightful
Staten Bey, whose book, Fire and
Sword in the Soudan," has been re-
Gently published, was an officer under
Gordon, and appointed governor gen.
eral of the province of Darfur. In 1884
his province was .oyerrun by the
Mahdis' troops and he was obliged to
surrender. He remained in captivity
until last year when he managed to
escape. Naturally such a man can
give good picture of the condition of
affairs. What civilization had spread
through the Soudan during the Egypt
ian occupation had been swept away.
The Arabs have seized all the best
lands and driven out the owners. Slay-
cry is rampant. There is no such thing
as justice. Life is not safe. No Euro
pean is allowed to enter tn eSoudan.
But it is not sufficient for these
wretches TO have devastated the Sou
dan. A holy war has been preached |
among them and they are determined
to spread Mohammedanism of their
peculiar type at the point of the sword.

We only know that it is likely to fall
short of the needs of the country. But
we are not told how it is to be met.
Mention is made of the change of
time in the assessmentof crops, but no
mention is made of how much is ex-
pected to be gained by the Government
from this change. When reform is
made in the taxing methods the Legis-
! lature and the people should know
what advantage is to be expected.
Some calculation should be made and
an approximate value arrived at. IN
less a showing. can be made that the
change gives a direct benefit in dollars
and cents, it is very little use making
it. The same is true of the license
law. 1t is proposed to ''eodify the
many Acts" and as a fact we now
have the license Act before the Legis-
lature. But the Minister does not fig
ure out how much revenue he expects
to get from his licenses. Many of them
are exceedingly annoying and cause
friction If a great increase of reve-
nue. is to come from them it might be
worth while to stand the friction, but
no one seems To know or has made it
his business to calculate what income
may be expected to be returned when
the Act goes into operation. But if very
small sums are to be realized we fail
to see why the friction should be in
Cured
We have suggested in these columns
a tax which would certainly raise the
revenue 100000 annually, and we be-
lieve that it. would raise more. But
we have yet to be shown what advant-
age is to be gained by licensing few

hoped to find some explanation of these
matters in the report of the Finance
Department.

is the same Staten Bey whose book we
have called attention to. He goes in
the capacity of guide, his knowledge
of the country being very thorough.
Should the expedition be unsuccessful
and Staten Bey fall once more into the
hands of the Arabs, his fate would be
indeed an unhappy one.
Of course, should the expedition fail,
another stronger one would have TO be
sent. The end will be the same. The
Soudan will have to be brought into the
sphere of Egyptian influence once more
and the provinces administered for
some considerable time by English and
other European officers. In this way
a fertile and populous country will once
more become a useful member of the
world of states. But before this is ac-
complished vast amount of good lives
will be wasted and lost.
Mohammedanism from its inception
has been curse to the world. In its
stern and ascetic aspect it is a menace
to civilization and in its degeneration
and laxity it is a menace to all moral
~ and progress.
The next news from the Soudan
should be very interesting.

fit is true that the Portuguese lead
ers are seriously contemplating pc
tition to send recent arrivals from the
Orient back TO their native country, oul
Portuguese friends are preparing tc
make the most absurd mistake OF their
lives. If the Chinese and japanese paid
their passage money and comply with
the usual conditions placed upon immi-
grants. they have quite as much right

President Andrews account of the
revolution of 1893 is much fairer than
the foregoing, but is marred by the
omission of essential facts. For in
stance, he omits all reference to the
Legislative session of 1892, or to the
lottery and opium bills. OF the ex-
queen he says: "Biding her time this
shrewd and inscriptions woman took
advantage of split in the dominant
party to effect coup d'etat."
He omits all reference to the mass
meetings of January 16, 1893. In re-
gard to the landing of troops from the
Boston, he says: "The troops landed
sooner than most of the committee (of
safety expected or desired, giving
some color to the allegation that this
Act really caused the revolution" We
have no great fault to find with the re-
mainder of the passage, although the
authors prejudices occasionally crop
out, as when he makes the exagger-
ated misstatement that during the
temporary protectorate of February

About how much goes out Of this
country TO absentees we cannot say.
In good years il cannot be less than a
couple Of millions. These millions are
spent in Europe and the United States.
Now men who draw money from
place. while living elsewhere, soon lose
interest in the place and regard it as
the absentee landlord of Ireland did
in the beginning of the century. All
their hopes and desires and aspirations
are centered in the country they have
elected TO live in. The country where
the estates remain is merely regarded
as a mich COW to be drained of every
drop of milk possible. We can quite BE-
lieve that such men are capable Of SELL
ing out TO the sugar trust. In fact
there is a whisper TO that effect.

PRESIDENT ANDREWS ON THE
HAwAIIAN MUDDLE.'

The April number of Scribner's Mag
azine contains the last installment of a
History of the Last Quarter Gen.
tury," by President Andrews of Brown
University. The entire work is to be
published in book form in the latter
part of this year, and will form valu-
able handbook for reference.
In his political sympathies the author
is a pronounced silver mugwump, and
an ardent admirer of Cleveland. At
the same time he has evidently taken
great pains to collect accurate infor-
nation, and to do justice to all par
ties. 1t is therefore to be regretted
that in the section entitled 1.-The Ha-
waiian Middle" he has been grossly
misled in regard to some important
facts, but still more in regard to the
deep underlying causes that brought
about the revolution of 'S7 and '93.
With all honesty of intention he
gives his readers a wrong impression
more by ignoring certain important fac
tors in the result than by false state
ments. AS compared with Blount or
Nordhoffff, he is model of fairness.
When treating of the period that pre-
coded reciprocity, he repeats the stale
fiction that ''the sons of the mission
aries roughened
Hawaii's upward path by taking the
chief offices of state and rich portion
of the land" Following Blount's guild
ance, he represents the Constitutional
struggle during Kalakaua's reign as
being occasioned by the importation of
Asiatic and Portuguese laborers,
largely superseding the ,Kanakas,"
and by the Kings jealousy of the grow
ing wealth of the planters.
In fact, Kalakaua advocated unlim-
tied Chinese immigration, and the Ha-
waiian elements in the population
against the "haole.''

Senator McCandless is sound in his
desire TO prevent any legislation that
may react upon our freedom of trade
with the United States, but he should
frs e positive that there is danger be-
fore crying Wolf, wolff The Senate
made q serious mistake in passing the
Nv stock license over the heads of
members who wished 10 make more
thorough investigation of the matter.
If il is true, as stated by Senator Nc
Candless. that the title of the bill
should be An Act to create monopolies
in the live stock business" it is highly
proper that there should be complete
renovation of the whole license system.
BY lacking lie nse upon nearly every
branch of legitimate business, why are
We not assisting in the creation of nu-
merous monopolies? An income tax
may be inquisatorial, and it may force
a man TO pay a premium on prosperity,
but it does not ask him to pay for his
prosperity before he realizes on ii. Pro-
vided this country desires TO shut out
the men of small capital. We know of
no better way Of doing it than by con-

and March, 1S93," the MARINES o. tine
Boston paraded through the Honolulu
streets thrice each day."
Again, after mentioning Mr.. Stevens
recall in May, 1893, he states that the
Provisional Government during the
late protectorate had mustered force
of 1900 soldiers, acquired control of
all arms and explosives in the islands,
enacted alien and sedition laws, sup
pressed disloyal newspapers and deere
ed that any one speaking against the
Provisional Government should be liza
BILE to a fine of 800 and to impris-
onment for thirty days"
The absurdity of the above needs no
comment The 1900 soldiers" must
include those patriotic citizens who
turned out to man to suppress the in
surrection of January, 1895, and who
freely gave their services to stamp out
the cholera epidemic of last September
If any disloyal newspaper has been
suppressed, or if anyone has been pun
ished by fine and Imprisonment for
speaking against the Provisional Gov
eminent, we have yet to hear of it. The
attitude of some Royalists has strongly
resembled that of Messrs. Dodson and
Fogg towards Pickwick.
President Andrews plainly disap-
proves of Cleveland's abortive attempt
to restore the Queen, but thinks that
but for her stubbornness Gin. regard
to amnesty it would probably have sue

from the redoubtable Prince Kunuiakea
and from Minister Willis favorable to
the Government of the Republic of Ha-

Our author skins over the Moreno
episode and the intolerable abuses OF
the following seven years eliminating
in the famous opium bribery case, with
the remark that the King found him
self in the power of a reactionary
clique as unprincipled as any of the
missionary party" He states that
in 1887, after secret preparations, the
progressists marched to the Palace I'M
der arms and extorted new Constitu-
ton, which reduced royal authority to
shadow"
The facts are that the grievances of
the decent part of the community, both
native and foreign, having been openly
discussed in the papers for many
and formulated at an immense
mass meeting, were presented to the
King by committee of unarmed citi-
zens. The revision of the Constitution
which took place the following week
left to the King larger political powers
than are exercised by the Queen of
Great Britain; for example, the right of
veto of law.
