A Native Hawaiian on Hawaii.

In view of certain statements made
IN the authorized defence of ex-Queen
Liliuokalani printed in The Tribune
one week ago this morning, it is posi-
BILE that some of our readers will be in
terested in the opinions of A. F. Judd,
chief justice of the Hawaiian republic,
concerning Liliuokalani, Hawaii and
annexation. We find them in an eX-
ceedingly instructive interview in the
Rochester Herald, in which city Mr.,
Judd is now visiting. 1t should be said
for Mr.. Judd that while he is a native
of Hawaii. he is also an alumnus of
Yale university and a man Of uncom-
mon learning and intelligence.
First as to Liliuokalani. Il know
her WE'LL" says Chief Justice Judd. 81

quainted with her. She was always
pleasant and courteous to my face;
she is an educated and polished wo-
man. But you can never know the

be trusted. She would listen to heI
advisers, make no sign and act as

Oar Vanishing Timber SuppIv.

The facts lately brought out by the
Federal department of agriculture in
relation to forestry are startling.
Chief of these is that at the present
rate of reckless consumption it will
not be more than forty years until the
United States will be devoid of timber
for building purposes.
The chief Of the division of forestry
Bernard E. Fernow, in a recent inter
view, published in The Tribune at
the time but worthy of repetition,
said: "Our lumber trade amounts
to 81 ,OOO 600, 900 a year and, next to agri-
culture, is the largest industry in this
country. All the mines of metals of
all kinds and the quarries all over the
earth produce but $500 OOOO coo per year.
The United States consumes about 400
feet of board measure per capita of
carniferous timber which includes pine,
spruce, hemlock, cypress. cedar, tama-
rack. This consumption is against
about 120 feet of board measure con-
sumed per capita in Great Britain and
$50 feet in Germany, the latter figures
United States about $50 feet per capita
OF all kinds of woods are consumed.
We must depend upon the carniferous
woods for our timber, and at the pres
ent rate Of consumption the supply in
sight in this country will not last more
than forty years. At present lumber
men do not cut wood of this kind un-
der about $50 years old, and when we
take into consideration that it requires
at least 100 years to grow such timber
to a size suitable for cutting, we can
see readily that the situation that
faces the country is more grave one
than is generally supposed"
And yet, in the face Of testimony like
this, scarcely a night passes that does
not see our tree-clad hillsides ablazC
with flame and virtually no effort put
forth by the state, the county or the
township to check or prevent the rav
ages Of these insidious fires. Truly, we
are a curious people.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-04-24
OUR ARTIFICIAL WANTS.

From the Citizen.
In 1850 an income of 1000 a year meant
as good housing, food and clothing and
more contentment than 5000 a year in
1897, when, with the exception of rents,
the necessities of life are no dearer than
at the earlier date. Satan has invented
for us so many artificial wants that in
making out tn family budget, instead OF
appropriating IS per cent. of income for
necessities and % per cent. for contingent
expenses, we have to transpose the per-
centagcs, grateful that there is anything
left to pay the butcher If civilization i'm
plies the ability to satisfy desires, 1t ap-
pears also to mean the creation of wants
ad intlnitum. There does not seem to be
a general impression that people are hap
pier or more vrtuous than in simpler
times. We doubt if they are; but we be-
licvc that there are greater opportunities
for happiness and far less inevitable mis-
cry than of old 1t would be quite worth
while to discover what really makes for
happiness, and what we had better do
without than have 1t is only because
Satan has introduced confusion into our
ideas of values that it is so hard to un-
derstand exactly what is meant by prog
rCSs.

PREACHING AND PRACTICE:

He talked about our duty till we thought
he really knew
The theory Of politics and what a man
should do.
He said that every citizen should enter in
the fight,
Antagonize corruptonists and work with
all his might.
lie seemed so very earnest that as soon
as he was done
We offered him an office, but he said he
wouldn't run.
lie told us if we'd prosper we should keep
tn unrighteous out,
Put up the best of candidates-and he was
right, no doubt.
He wanted only able men, and men in bust
ness life,
Whose names would stand for honesty and
fearlessness in strife.
With such he held a victory could easily
be won,
But when we asked if he would lead, he
said he couldn't run.
on need Of better aldermen he also spoke
at length,
Advising business candidates to give the
ticket strength.
That only self sacrifice could make a ma
tlon great,
He though the work of politics no honest
man should shun,
But still he kept protesting that he hadn't
time to run.
He preached with great ability, but prac-
ticed not a bit,
And never saw that for himself his CEN
sure was most fit.
He talked of what a man should do, anu
argued very well,
| But stlll cannot help regret what after
ward befe.l
| lie showed reform in all his talk, but in
his actions none
He pointed out mans duty, but he hadn't
time to run.

to negotiate n general postal treaty hav-
ing for It's object the unification of all the
great powers, in SO far as the formation
Of ~ single .ostal territory for the re-
ciprocal exchange Of correspondence
should go. Owing, however, to compli-
cations arising out Of the -Prussian
war the International congress did not
meet uutil September 10, 1874, when the
first congress at Berne was convened.
That congress eventually succeeded in
agreeing upon a general postal union.
with all that such u union implied and
established a permanent international
postal bureau at BCrnc, at the joint eX-
pensc of the nations at interest: ana the
next congress, that of Paris in 1873, ampli-
fled the general postal union into the Uni
Ncrsll Postal union. At the two succeed
ing congresses, at Lisbon and Vienna, still
further improvements were adopted.
"1t win thus be seen that the United
States planted in 1868 the acorn which is
now about to blossom forth into a full
grown oak in Washington in 1897. More
than any other single Individual DR.. Won
stephen may properly be called the
Father of the Universal Postal union;
but more than any other three individuals,
our own Montgomery Blair, William Fl.
Seward and John A. Kasson, all worthy
sons OF Uncle Sans government, are

called its lineal grandfathers. The i'm
portance and utility of this gigantic COM
bination of nations in the interest of CIV

remembered that the postal territory COW
cred equally and uniformly by its obliga-
tions and embraced within its scope now
contains not less than 1,i0O,0OO0OO of liv-

The Amended Libel Law.


We print elsewhere the text Of the
amended libel bill in the form in which
il has unanimously passed the state
senate, together with an analysis or
its provisions by the dean of Pennsyl-
yania Journalism, Colonel Mcclure. All
persons who are Interested in TINS
subject are urged to read both the text
of the bill and Colonel McClure's ex-
position of it.
The bill doubles the penalty for wan
ton and malicious libel and to this
no decent publisher or editor Will Of
fer objection. 1t is not the duty Of the
press to invade the privacies of life
with an eye to their offensive repro
duction before the public. Nor is there
any desire among self-respecting max
ers of newspapers to turn the mighty
enginery of the press into battering
ram for the assault of objects of their
individual animosity.
on the other hand. the bill provides
that where damage is inflicted by an
erroneous publication printed in good
faith in the belief that the article
printed is proper Tor puDllc lnIorIla-
ton, the error, in order to justify dam
ages, must be substantial, and the
damages to be awarded must not be in
excess of just restitution for injury ac-
tually inflicted. In other words, the
publisher who makes an innocent error
is not to be regarded by the law from
the fact of the error, as a wanton
criminal, but is to stand on a foot
ing with other managers of CONNER
cial activities, who are liable only to
the extent of actual damage proved.
1t is impossible for just men to find
fault with this proposed law. 1t will
soon appear whether the house of rep
resentatives at Harrisburg is disposed
to treat the publishing industry fairly.

ITS q shame that a lot of Scranton
ians should be allowed to corner our water
supply" remarks the News-Dealer
Wilkcs-Barreans had for years all the OPP
portunities in the world to furnish the
city with a good supply OF water, but
failed miserably in every attempt they
made. Scranton enterprise has succeeded
where Wilkes-Barre timidity failed, and
now the county seat people are whining
about it. The least the Wilkes-Barre peo.
pie say about it now the better.

though she was in thorough accord
with us. Then she would turn around
on the sly and do something that
would ALLEVIATE all her friends. She
was constantly trying to get back het
old prerogatives, while we felt that
we would never surrender the liberties
that we had secured. When she tried
to abrogate the constitution and make
new constitution the Americans in
the Hawaiian islands felt as though
the time to protest had come. 1t was
the most peaccable revolution on rec
ord Not n drop of blood was shed.
It didn't last n day. The queen liter
ally had no supporters and the leaders
deposed her and took possession of the
government"
Asked for his view of the importance
of Liliuokalanrs present visit to this
country Mr. Judd said: 81 attach not
the slightest Importance to it. 1t is
beyond the bounds of possibility that
the American government will over
turn an established, popular, well-gov-
erned land stable republic and put
back monarchy. The only effect is on
the native Hawaiians, who are de-
ceived by the letters that are sent from
Washington and printed in the native
papers. The incident of the visit
shows the thickness of the queen. She
signed the articles of abdication volun-
tarily and after being kept under sur
veillance for mQnths she was finally
released and granted a full pardon.
She called on the president, on the
morning Of her departure for America,
thanked him for the generosity of the
government and said she was going
| bands relatives. She never told per-
son that she intended to come to Amer
lea until that morning and few knew
| the fact until she sailed. Then the
| town was in an uproar and specula-
| tion as to her mission was rife. We
| didn't have long to wait, however, for
| after a shirt visit in Boston, she went
straight to Washington; she has been
| there ever since trying to influence
| public sentiment and to make trouble"
Mr.. Judd, of course favors anncXa-
! tiOn, and while he disclaims a political
mission it is safe to assume that the
object of his present visit to the United
| States-thc first in seventeen years-ls
| to say a word or two in favor thereof.
