Tic People Versus PIutocracr.

In the matter of the action Of the
People versus Plutocracy, the formal
plesdings Of the parties have raised
the issue Of the standard of monetary
currency. But the verdict in the great
trial now proceeding before the Amer.
lean people should be given not only
with strict regard to the evidence pro-
duced, but also with reference to the
character and credibility Of the parties
producing it. The Democratic party
has always been the friend of the toll
ers of the Nation and has ever stood
as the champion of equal rights and
individual liberty. 1t represents the
best interests OF ell the people. And
yet it is claimed that they are now.en-
deavoring to accomplish the ruin of
the country, to depress labor, bring
about panic, shocking credit and par
alyZng every industry. Can it be pos
sible, is it reasonable to believe that
the Democratic party is about to COM
nit hari-kariP That it's special object
is to render the people miserable and
to spread universal ruin2
The Democracy which we love and
for which we stand has ever been the
firm and faithful friend of the poor
and weak as against the rich and
strong. The Republican party is at.
tempting to pose as the guardian of
the people, who will hardly be de-
ceived by the cheap, false halo with
which it seeks to decorate itself. That
party comes into court with unclean
hands, stained by the crime of a
stolen Presidency in 1876. It did not
hesitate the most daring and despic-
able treason by assassinating the in
stitution under which we live, and
undermining the best hope of every
lover of the human race--government
of the people, for the people, by the
people.
The counting out OF that matchIess
statesman and Democrat, Samuel j.
Tilden, from the Presidency, should
never be condoned or forgotten and
the professions of patriotism coming
from the party that perpetrated that
wrong bears upon it the stamp Of
fraud and insincerity.
If the country needs to be saved,
let it be saved from the clutches OF q
party guilty of the foulest crime in
American history-the disgraceful
robbery of the Presidency in 1876

WAR ON SPECULATION.
New German Law Which VIII BE
Death Blow to Dealing in Futures.

New German Law Which VIII Be a
Death Blow to Dealing in Futures.
A Washington special says: Con-
sui Julius Mutb, reporting to the de-
partment of state from Magdeburg on
the new exchange law of the German
empire says that the government IN
der the pressure of the Agrarian party
has undertaken to check speculation
on the exchanges, not alone in stocks,
but also in food products. Under the
law, no exchange can be established
without the consent of the govern
ment, which, through a commissioner
will exercise q continued supervision
over its actions and dealings.
A court of honor is created, which
may exclude persons from the ex-
change after due trial. Parties who
have been iudicially declared bankrupt
will be excluded for at least six
months, and permanently if the bank,
ruptcy was fraudulent. When the
listing of stocks or bonds Is applied
for at the exchange a committee will
make thorough investigation of all
the circumstances affecting their Sc
curity or desirability, and will then
decide whether they will be admitted.
Before this is done a prospectus must
be published, giving ell particulars Of
such securities.

The siaases Would no Injured By

Denror Goods.
Tho support Of iho MoKinleyils
doelriuo OF high taxes nnd dear Goods
comes almost entirely from the men
who have been persuaded that higher
prices are botter than chlapneH. 10
DO because OF tho boliof that more pro.
lection win raia8 prices, and thal ia
some way this win help tbe producers,
that in spite oil the utter failure OF Nc
Kinleyism four years ago, thoro are

diyidual whether he prefers 10 pay
high or los prices for commodities,
there is no difference OF opinion.
Every one wants % buy where goods
are sold cheapest for any given quail.
ity. Nobody wishes to SEQ the things
he needs made dearer, either through
natural or artificial causes. This IS a
law of human nature.
When it comes 90 selling goods tho
case is different. The people who soil
want high prices for their products,
and tho promises Of the protectionists
20 aid them by shutting ont foreign
competition with heavy taxes, is there
fore very attractive. Without coumd-
ering what the ultimate result will bo
the producers are inclined TO favor
the policy which makes goods dear.
The iallaey Of high prices argument
lies IN tho tnct that each and every
one of the 10000 600 Americans arc
consumers, and only q comparatively
small number OF them sellers of goods
which are affected by the tariff. The
millions of farmers, planters, farm
laborers, etc, cannot have the price
Of their products, of which o surplus
is annually exported, increased by
tariff laws. The millions OF workers
in mills, factories, mines, ETC., can get
no advantage from a policy which
merely increases their employers pro.
fits and in no way advances wages,
which depend on the competition
among employees. Even il the employ
ers could be compelled to divide with
their workers some Of their profits
this would not compensate for the in
creased cost of living resulting from a
general advance in prices.
The whole question Of cheap goods
versus high protection prices is there
Tore matter of figures. The best inter-
ests Of tho 10000 people who buy
things are all on the side of low prices.
The selfish interests OF few manufac-
turers are on the side Of taxes which
makes goods dear. 1t should not be
hard to decide which policy is iairesi
aud best.

posed it and refused to return to work.
Threats have been heard from the lat

ly, as already stated, to obtain
a seat in the London conference
if she applied, is not without
Legitimate channels through which
to convey any promise of en-
enlargement she may be prepared
to give to the landing of branch
here from the main line. An Am
erican-Japanese line by way of
Hawaii is certain to be construct
ed in the future, but there is no
tangible evidence that it is likely
soon to be realized. In the mean
time this country should not be
slow in partaking of whatever
good the gods may provide from
another quarter. The ambitious
cable scheme of this Government,
hastily formulated as it was, con-
tanned the elements Of its own de-
feat, as events thus far have
proved. A new departure
should now be made, starting
with pipe-laying for the boon, not
merely of cable connection, but of
cable competition that will ensure
to our people rates the most rea-
sonable. The history OF subma.
rine telegraphy in other parts of
the world is assurance that time
will touch Hawaii with more than
one trans oceanic cable. There
will be no need to make great
sacrifices to obtain what natural
position and local development
guarantee us. Instead of making
futile efforts to hasten the inevita-
bic boon Of communication with
the outside world, we should
make an effort to secure the great
internal benefit Of cable commu-
nication between the different ISL
ands of the group. Have q
practical scheme for an inter-
island cable adopted by the next
Legislature.

/ Some delay occurred to the re-
ceipt of the mortuary report for
August by the BULLETIN. 1t has
features that render it better late
than never in its information.
The number of deaths in Homo.
lulu was only 3S, against 81 in
August of last year. Six, or
nearly one.sixth of the whole
were from old age. Seven per-
sons died over 70, ten between
birth and five years, and thirteen
under 20. Next to old age the
most prolific causes of death were
meningitis, pneumonia and para
lysis, claiming three victims each.
The rest of the SO are divided
among nineteen causes including
two unknown. There were Is
cases unattended by doctors,
very large proportion. The an
nual death rate per thousand for
the month was 1903, that of Ha-
waiians being l9.43. Altogether
it is an unusually favorable show
ing for Honolulu, especially in
the warmest month Of the wear.

BY the Albert which arriv-
ed a few days ago we re-
ceived 1913 Quincy Cleanable
Refrigerators, ranging in size
from the small household ice
box to that used in grocery
store. 1t was a large in
volce-not consigned, but
bought outright. These re.
frIgerators and ice boxes
have nine points of excel
lence, to wit:
Cleanliness, free circulation;
economy in the use of ice;
condensation and dry air; low
average temperature; freedom
from condensation on the inner
walls; freedom from damage
by the use of ice picks; proper
location of drip pipe and long
life. These points are found
only in the Quincy Cleanable.
Now for the reason for the
large purchase. There are
l28 persons in Honolulu who
need refrigerators, many of
them have old ones. We pro-
pose leasing these refrigerators
on the following terms: The
selling price of the article is
divided by six: when the refri.
gerator is delivered one-sixth
of the price is paid in cash
and monthly thereafter in
equal payments until the
entire amount is paid. If
before the expiration of the
SIX months, the lessee wishes
to pay off the balance he will
be entitled to discount of
five per cent. on the amount
unpaid. If a customer wants
to buy outright for cash, he
gets five per cent. discount
on the entire amount.
The Quincy Cleanable can
be had only of us.
