This little statement coming from Mr..
RalstOn. created considerable cOmmotion.
Mr.. Snead gulped down tear and said
that the proper thing to do in the prem
iscs would be TO appoint committee to
inquire into Mr. Stokes political Views.
Accordingly. Mr.. Waddey moved that
this be done, and Mr.. Snead appointed
Mr.. Waddey to do it.

the president introduced Captain a. c..
Attkisson, Of Manchester. who waded
through labored denuncation OF every
thing but Organism. This latter he
lauded 10 the skies, and predicted that
the man with the iron jaw would win
the presidency on the 81 OF November
without any trouble. He referred 10 the
great wealth of Hanna, but did not deign
10 notice the paltry millions OF Hearst.
The speaker dwelt briefly on the horrible
affair OF 70. but wound up that part Of
his speech by saying that he did not
know anything about it.

parture of Mr.. Foster. There can BE
hope that an agreement will be
reached. Both parties to the negotia-
tions can afford to be liberal and i'm
dulgent. There is such a prejudice
here against exclusive franchises that
the promoters can scarcely hold out
for sole rights. The cable agitation
has revealed or brought out much that
is encouraging. It has developed that
there are men within the country,
aside from Col Spalding, who chooses
to send most of his time abroad, who
are not insensible to the advantages
and promises of the cable business

CUBA AND SUGAR.

In August, according to the United
States treasury reports, Cuba disap-
peared from the list of nations which
export sugar to that country. Brazil
also is absent from this list, but Bra
lillian sugar never came in large guam
titles. In August, 1895, the United
States received over 1856 100000 pounds
from the great cane-growing island,
and in preceding years the quantity
has been comparable. The sugar
which takes the place of that from
Cuba comes from Europe and the
other West Indies, together with the
East Indies, Hawaii and Africa. AS
the price does not go up to pay for
the additional cost of bringing the
new supplies to the United States,
provided there was any increase, cir
cumstances make it appear that when
Cuba has been restored to peace once
more the island may find itself crowd
ed out of an important and paying
market.

A wrinkle new to Honolulu
is old blue china. 1t has been
the, rage in the United States
for six months past, and in
Europe for as many months
before. It's the sort your great
grandmothers and their child
rem used: except that modern
methods of manufacture and
decorating enables the potters
to make the pieces thinner
and the decorations finer.
The people who want some
thing finer than may be had
in Delft, can be accommodated
with "Belleek." This is a
much better, quality and is
decorated in a more artistic
manner.
For plain every day use,
the Delft is the best, because
it is made to wear and to use.
We have full sets and single
pieces Of it, which will soon
find their way into the homes
of Honolulu. Delft is not a
fad; it was used many years
ago and was fashionable for a
full century before we came
on this mundane sphere. It's
place was taken by other and
Frenchier patterns; now we
are back to the old German
windmill pictures. Come and
see them.

At any time there may be expected
news from Japan that will interest
and perhaps surprise those who are
working on Pacific cable enterprises.
The commerce of that country in the
Pacific is reaching large proportions
and rapid communication must follow
increasing trade. It would be rather
chagrning to the Americans and
Britishers to see japanese line con
structed before any other.

UNFAIR TO REGIMENT.
They are Not Foot Ball "Sloggers" as
Charged by Local Paper.

There is much indignation over the
Advertisers comment on the playing
at the foot ball game Saturday. As
the sport goes to those who know any
thing of it, there was a minimum If
rough work. The Advertiser charges
dirty playing against the Regiment.
Both Umpire Carter and Referee De
la Nergne say that the game was I'M
usually good natured and free from
unfair playing. They authorize this
statement in justice to the Regiments.
Capt. Sam Johnson of that team, says
he was very particular to instruct his
men against anything like smuggling
or roughness.
But one man was reprimanded by
Umpire Carter for dirty" playing.
This was Cockett, of the town team.
The only man laid out during the con
test was Lawrence, of the Regiments.
The Regiments. however, do not com
plain. but feel that they have been
treated very unjustly upon their first
appearance.

CABLE CH..4.

1t is more than likely that other
propositions than the one introduced
at the first little local cable congress
will be forthcoming The word ulti-
matum has not been heard yet. What
this country wants is the spark COM
munication with the outside world.
She should be and is willing to make
great sacrifice to gain the valuable
prize. Every point should be most
carefully considered. But there is
such thing as being a bit too eau
tious. 1t should be remembered that
for many years prior to the appear
ance of Col. Spalding in the arena the
project was dormant. Col Spalding's
rivals defeated him at Washington,
line from Honolulu to the California
Coast. The rival company has said
not word to Hawaii. None of it's
agents have appeared here to bargain
or explain. They rely on power with
the Congress of the United States and
their force of capital, They have very
little claim in equity upon Hawaii. In
ordinary justice and according to the
common rules of commerce, Col.
Spalding has the option and the favor.
Being thus entrenched he can with
out risk make better offers than any
rivals. The Star believes that he will
do this. There will be more local con-
terences, It 10 probable, before the de-
