The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-01-14

THE case of Carl Kiemme came
up before the court yesterday. The
defendant pleaded guilty. The At
torney-General asked for suspension
OF sentence and Mr.. Klemme, I'M
der that restriction, goes forth free
man as long as he abides by the
laws of the Republic. The Govern
ment in this case have shown the
same clear cut policy they have
throughout. They have laid down
distinctively that no man shall re-
turn to these islands, once Danish
ed, unless he does SO by leave of
the Government. A government
would not be worth it's name on
paper if it,4did not maintain it's
point. But government can be
clement and in Mr.. Klemme's case
this Government has been clement.

THERE seems every prospect that
both this year and the next are
going to prove very prosperous
ones for Hawaii. The crop out
look is exceedingly good. Reports
from Hilo and Hanfakua, from
sprecEelsville, 9 from Hama, from
the various, antationsaof Kauai
and of this island all promise good
yields. The market outlook is
also good. 1T is. a-pleasant thing
to begin the year with good future
opportunities. We seem to have
passed through the "black cloud
and to be getting at the silver
lining.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-01-14

MASSACHUSETTS, says the Out
look, has been going in for road
making. For some time there has
been highway commission in. that
State, and in 1895 the Legislature
appropriated 100000 for roads.
From published statements we
learn that petitions to the highway
commissions already ask for seven
hundred miles of road construction,
and it is expected that eventually
upward of two thousand miles Of
road will come under it's control
This is one-tenth of the whole
roads of the State What we need
here is some such commission, and
the Legislature should find means,
by loan, of carrying out its recon-
mendations. With good roads
much of the landed property OF
this country would be quadrupled
in value and the population would
increase rapidly. There are many
questions to which the coming
Legislature will have to give very
careful attention, but few, if any,
are so important to the welfare Of
all classes of. the community. as
goods roads. Open up our fertile
lands and an era of great prospect
ityi5 bound to follow; a'prosperity,
too, that will be founded upon a
solid basis.

COPYRIGHT.

There is a copyright law here
which is intended to protect the
author Of "any map, book, chart,
musical composition, print, cut,
engraving, photograph, painting,
drawing or-statue, or the author of
any model or design intended to
be perfected and completed as a
work of the fine arts" All coun-
tries have come to an agreement
that the work of mems brains or
the product of their mental
industry should be protected
as much as possible, for a certain
term of years. With us it is for
twenty years. There is a good deal
Of brain work here, for so small
place, and persons who have done
valuable literary work should be
careful TO protect themselves. 1t
was not so long ago that certain
publication undertook the re-publi-
cation Of Professor Alexander's
History of the Hawaiian People"
piece meal. The whole work would
have been re-published in mangled
form by this time unless the pro-
prietors had stepped in and pointed
out that their copyright was being
infringed.
Newspaper work is the legitimate
plumber of the literary pirate, and
many papers now copyright their
articles. Copyright does not pre-
vent the use of extracts from books
and articles. It does prevent any
one from taking bodily a full ar
ticle and appropriating it as his
own. It is quite probable that the
enforcement,ofthe right here would
be of advantage. 1t lis nhanifestly
unfair that the literary labor Of
anyr man shouldst be. flched from
him without a word of comment or
objection.- We believe that case
under the copyright'law will shortly
appear upon our law calendar.
. This wilIbe the second in our. legal
annals.

MINISTER KINGS visit to Maui
will result in putting on foot better
roads for the homesteads on the
slopes of Haleakala. 1t is by such
personal inspection as this that the
needs of the various districts can
be intelligently attended to by the
Ministry. The better the Ministers
become personally acquainted with
the actual condition of affairs the
better the country viii be governed.
Especially is this true of the
Minister of the Interior, before
whom come so many of the various
schemes for the development of the
islands.

In our notice OF the Presidents
message we quoted his remarks up
on the German discrimination
against the United States Insur-
ance Companies. The Presidents
message has borne fruit from the
State of Missouri. Commissioners
Waddel has written to the manager
OF "Prussian National Insurance
Company" that unless the German
Government changed its policy, he
would, after February 1st, refuse
to renew the licenses. of German
companies in Missouri. This shows,
that two can play at the same
game. Whether the game is worth
the candle is what each player
must decide. 1t brings the prin-
cipIe of free trade and fair trade to
almost an issue. Other states Of
the Union do not view the action
of Missouri with satisfaction.

Timely Topics


STEADY GRIND--'I have
learned from observation
says Chauncey DepeW, "that
three things surely happen
to a man who works with
out relaxation. In the first
| place he becomes nervous
irritable and hard to get
along with. In the second
place the grade of his work
falls off, and he is liable to
err in his judgment. In the
third place he, dies sud-
denly" These. remarks of
the famous after dinner
speaker we consider not
only decided applicable in
the sense in which they are
intended, but in the way of
a great many of the manu-
faCturerS that are constantly
placing inferior goods on the
market and claiming them as
superior to the product of
older and better known
houses. This is. especially
true of cutlery. There are
houses who place this class
Of goods on the market that
are made up for show and
sale only, but whose wear
is warranted only until they
have. been once secured.
This is not the case with the
goods of we'll known and
established houses whose
reputation depends upon the
wear of goods.
They pride themselves on
what they make being made
of the best material that
money. and experience can
turn out. The John Russell
Cutlery Company have a
reputation that is enVied by
many and equalled by few.
Elk S. S. Australia we receiV-
ed a consignment of their
high grade cutlery consisting
of carvers Gin cases., slicing,
kitchen, butcher, hunting and
cake knives, as we'll as COM
pIete sets for the dinner from
the fish course to the desert.
Agate Iron Ware is too we'll
known to need any comment
on our part. Suffice it to
that we have at" in Agate
Iron Ware. The Bradley
and Hubbard Company have
been so rushed with orders
that they have found it i'm
possible to meet and turn
out the work as fast as the
orders were received. If
you desire something new
in these goods we can &C
commodate you, and the
designs, sentus are the new

said he did better than that, but told
how another fellow had come in and
set UP a bank and made loan to a
farmer OF $40 on which he got 1888 per
cent. This money, they told the writer,
they got in the East, where you can
get 1t by the basketful, on any kind
of security, at from to Z per cent"
But to the borrower the extortion is
charged on the Eastern capitalist by
the local shark, and the real cause of
their trouble hides himself behind the
"bloated bondholder," "the plutocratic
capitalist" the money king of Wall
street" The remey lies in the hands
of these borrowers, and it is the appli-
cation of the Saxon farmers method
of cooperation. They can sell their
mortgage certificates in the East as
well as the local lender can, and get
the same low rate of interest he pays
for the money he lends them at such
extortionate rates Instead Of calling
on Jupiter Bryan to help them out of
the rut, they should remember that
''the gods help those who help them
selves"

WHERE IS THE WATCHDOG.

The city treasury seems to be in
sorry need Of a watchdog in these
days. 1t used to have one, according
to the veracious accounts of our Re-
publican friends. The city comptroller
was long ago dubbed watchdog OF the
treasury by his admiring friends and
supporters, and to that proud title he
owes large share Of the support
which he received at the polls last
spring. Now, a watchdog ought to
continue to watch. It was noticeable
during his previous periods of office
with Democrats in control of a part or
a whole Of the city government, that
Mr.. McCardy wearied not in holding
up accounts about which there was q
possibility of scruple, and some in
which there was not In any event,
the comptroller assumed to stand upon
the strict law of the city charter, and
to be always on the side of public
safety. If there existed the possibility
of a doubt as to the legality Of any
claim upon the public treasury, he as
serted that it was his duty as a public
