The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-01-21

That some of our readers will be
shocked when The Star advocates ere
nation is to be expected. But there
can be no doubt both of its sanitary
usefulness and of it's robbing death of
its most unpleasant features to those
who are left to mourn the death. 1t
is a satisfaction to see that the cause
is gradually growing and that so many
cities in the United States possess ere
matories. The time will come when
there will be such an institution in
Honolulu. The above remarks come
from reading paragraph relating
how the remains of Kate Field had
been carried across the continent, and
contrasting the same with the lugu-
brious details of a coffin.

JAPANESE VS.. u. S.

The serious question of Japanese
competition with the industries of the
United States is constantly occupying
the minds of the economists and the
manufacturers of that country-that
is, occupying the attention of the men
who think and the men who work.
Bradstreets' has a very valuable article
upon the point. There had been a
meeting of the Paterson silk manufac-
turers, Paterson being a center of that
particular trade. The object of the
meeting was that their views upon the
tariff should be laid before the House
I Committee on Ways and Means.
In the course of the discussion it
came out that the competition from
Japanese silk manufacturers was re-
garded as particularly threatening"
The opinion was preached that the inn
portatiOn of japanese silks under the
guise of the products of other coun-
tries should he punished by imprison-
ment and fine, and large majority of
those present coincided.
The above quotation shows the feel
ings of only one branch of trade, but
there is no doubt that many branches
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-01-21

of trade feel the competition Of She
japanese and should be up aud stir
ring.
Another thing is that manufacturers
should he true to themselves an their
country. In the keen rush for wealth
there is SO much desire to acquire gain
at any cost, that the business honor $
lost sight of and only the nimblc dol
lar is sought. This spirit it is that
leads to adultcraton of articles. The
grocer sands his sugar, the Manchester
cotton manufacturer loads his goods
with size TO give them undue weight,
and so on. The American manufac-
turer has hit on a new plan, however.
Everyone knows the story of the New
England wooden nutmegs. But the
present plan is no swindle in the
goods The goods presented are good
goods. The only thing about them is
that they have not been manufactured
in the States. The brains and the ma
chinery have been supplied by the
/ United States, but the labor is done il
/ Japan. Tt is evidently to this that the
silk manufacturers refer when they al
most unanimously wanted such action
to be punished by fine and imprisoii-
ment.
/ The Star was not aware of anything
of this sort in the silk trade, put it was
well acquainted with the fact in the
! Wooden trade. An Oakland firm has
moved all its machinery over to Japan
and made contract with the Jap IN
csc Government for labor for number
of years at something like fifteen cents
day for men and nine cents for
women. The writer quotes from menu
DRY and is almost afraid that the fig
ures are somewhat too princely, but
of one thing the reader may be GER
tain, the contract does not call for
higher figures.
If manufacturers will do this in the
race for wealth and teach their COM
petitors to beat themselves, it is really
their own fault. None the less does
The Star commend the action of the
silk men of Paterson. 1t is high time
that manufacturers in the United
States should realize the immense and
dangerous competition of the Jap
anese.

The Hagey Institute seems to be
growing in favor. 1t claims to have
treated over thirty cases with success.
One or two of these are known to The
Star and are up to the present, eff
fectual. But what The Star appreciates
in the Institute is that its directors
regard alcoholism as a disease. That IS
the true light in which to look at it..
The day will come when the world
will look back upon imprisonment for
drunkenness as just as barbarous as
imprisonment for insanity. We try
now to cure the insane, and in many
cases we succeed perfectly, in others
we obtain lucid intervals, in others we
fail. 1t seems more than probable that
the same will be true of the efforts
against alcoholism. But at all events
intelligent action in this direction is to
be highly commended, and for such
due credit should be given to the
Hagey institution.

JANUARY 90, 1897.

In our advertisement last
week we announced that we
would mention the new coffee
machinery which arrived by
the "W. H. Dimond. ;"
We have been negotiating
for the Guatemala" Coffee
Pulper for some time, it being
recommended to US as especi-
ally adaptable for the coffee
growers of these islands.
The Improved Guatemala
Cylinder Coffee Pulper is con
coded to be the most perfect
machine yet devised for the
purpose. Experience and the
brilliant results which have
been uniformly obtained with
this machine, amply confirm
all that has been claimed for
it. To those who inspect this
machine we wish to particu-
larry call attention to the feed
roll, which is a recent addi-
ton. The new adjustable
gates in the breast plate enable
it to pulp any size of coffee
WITHOUT BREAKING THE BEAN.
The arrangement of the hop
per prevents pebbles and other
foreign substances, which are
sometimes found in coffee,
from reaching the cylinder.
The approximate capacity of
ripe coffee in the cherry per
twelve hours is 5000 pounds.
Weight of machine for ship
ping, 400 pounds. Height, SO
inches. The diameter of the
fy-wheel, % inches, gives a
rapid, and, at the same time, a
steady motion.
The simplicity of the con-
struction recommends it to all.
With each pulper is furnished
an extra copper drum and
extra gates for the breast
plate, without additional cost.

WHAT HAWAIIANS KNOW.

The report of the Board of Educa-
ton for 1896 shows that 5207 children
of pure Hawaiian blood and 2,19S of
mixed Hawaiian blood are being edu-
Gated in the schools of the country.
This shows that as far as the school
population of the Islands is concerned
the Hawaiians are keeping their end
up. There are but 10000 Hawaiians
upon the Islands, out of our total pop
ulation of 100000. This shows that
full six per cent of that section go to
school. 1t shows moreover that the
Hawaiian desires not only the primary
education of his child, but that he is
willing at times to make sacrifices for
their higher education.
The Kamehameha Boys school,
where the cost of the pupils is be-
tween $40 and $50 year, and added to
this must be the cost of clothes, wash
ing and travelling expenses and trhe
of pocket money out of the one hun
dred and fifty pupils a large proper
ton are pure natives. Among the
boarders of the Saint Louis College,
who number considerably over one
hundred, there are number of pure
natives, the expense of education be-
ing within fraction of the expense at
Kamehameha.
Facts such as these go to show that
the Hawaiian native is willing not
only to have his children attend the
free school, where he learns English,
arithmetic, geography, and the ordin-
airy branches of a common school edu
cation, but it further shows that when
the time comes he pays for an educa-
ton above that of the common school.
That some children are assisted to
these institutions "cuts no ice" in the
matter, as the saying is. Many and
many a young man in the United
States and in England has been "as-
sisted" through his college career by
richer friends and has then won for
himself high place in the State.
What The Star wants to show, and
has shown clearly, is that the Hawaii
an is fairly well educated man. That
he has acquired the power of speaking
and thinking in English. That he is
intelligent, open to argument when
properly advanced. Finally that no one
can deny that he is fit for a voter.
A matter of sentiment keeps many
HawaiinnS from rpDiStprino as voters
now, but sentiment wears away and
finally gives place to the cold logic of
events. What has been done in this
country is done, irrevocably. There
can never be return to the old status
of affairs. The Hawaians are begin
ming to thoroughly see this, hence the
question asked as to their future
status as voters in the event of annex
alton. The Hawaiian sees too that
annexation must inevitably come, and
is beginning to realize that it is the
most polite move for the country.
Anyone who knows the Hawaiian.
knows that he makes "A good citizen
To read some of the ill-informed pap
ers that preach against annexation one
would thing that the Hawaiian was to
be classed as on level with the South
ern Negro The Hawaiian is as much
superior to him as a well educated
American is superior to a low-class
Mexican. There is no danger in re-
ceiving the Hawaiian as a voter.

Inherited
Bleed Taint,

Here is a case of inherited blood faint
which resulted in what threatened to be
a complete wreck of an innocent Young
life. The most serious feature of being
afflicted with blood disease is the fact
that innocent posterity must suffer. The
man or woman with the slightest faint
IN the blood forces the undesirable leg
acy of impurity upon their children
whose veins flow with the impure inner
itance which handicaps them in the race
of life.
No child who has a trace of bad blood
can be healthy or strong, and those pre-
disposed to Scrofula are liable to great
deal of sickness, because their constitu-
tons are weak and cannot withstand the
many dangers which heset the path of
childhood. Medical statistics show that
amajority of lung troubles result directly
from Scrofula, so that child afflicted
with this disease is likely to fall vic
tim to dreaded consumption.
Mr.. w. A. Clayton, of Addie, N. c.,
believes SIS. is the only blood remedy
which can Rave any effect whatever
upon obstinate cases. He says:
My three-vear-o1d boy had the worst
case OF Scrofula ever heard of. He
