still Running Behind.

In view Of recent experiences Mr. Ding
ley's sheer at the Wilson tariff as "a de-
felt maker" sounds like intentional sar-
casm.
MIR. Dingleys own tariff which was to
show us how TO raise all the money the
government needs and maky such a thing
as deficit impossible, has been in opera j.
tlon several months, with results very
different from its authors prophecies.
Under this tariff the deficit for the
month of August reached the enormous
figures, SHASTA, 4s2.
The reports for September show that
receipts for that month ran far behind
those of September 1896. though the pan
lie was then at about its worst stage. and
the country was in the midst of a very
exciting presidential campaign, which in
voived its whole monetary system. The
figures are S2l ,933,09S for September, 1897,
against s24.5si, 2i5 for September. 1896. II
we go back two years we find the differ
ence against the Dingley tariff much
. more striking. In September, 1895, the
governments receipts were s27,540,67s, or
S,6l6.5sO more than they were last month
In order for the Dinglev tariff to pull us
through the present fiscal year without
deficit, receipts must average $4,000, 900
month from now on through next June.
As the average receipts during the two
months that have elapsed since the Ding
ley tariff went into operation have been
only s9o,47s,356, it will be seen that there
VIII have to be a big pickup In order to
make the government receipts equal its
expenditures during the first year of the
Mckinley administration.
We may have the spectacle of Repub-
lican congress prescribing dose of that
rood old Decorate remedy, tariff for
revenue.-Atlanta journal.

Dinglcy's Boosted $40 900 900 a Year
Dwindles to 5000, 900.

Washington, Oct. 1O-The futllity of at
tempting materially to increase the reve-
nues of the Government by an increased
tax on personal baggage has been shown
by Collector Bidwell's report for Septem-
Der. He places the total receipts during
the month at s93,7O0 Mr.. Dingley de-
clared that the persoal baggage tax would
yield annually at least slO,OOO,OOO.
If each month in the year should equal
September the net income from this
source would be only s1,116,OOO. As a
personal baggage for the month of Sep
TENDER will probably exceed by large
percentage any other period of the year.
August September and October are the
months in which the great portion of the
tourists return from abroad. If the Sep
TENDER figures are taken as an indication
of what may be expected from a years
collections the amount will certainly fall
considerably short s35OOOO.
The expense of collecting these duties
have been enormous and will eat up a
large portian of the sum realized. 1t has
been found in practical operation that
many incoming steamers do not yield
enough to cover the cost of collection.
This will become more noticeable during
the wintermonths, and it may be doubted
If at the end of year 500. 900 is placed to
the credit of the Government.

A new brand of philanthropist has APP

believes in the moral and educational ln-
fluence Of the press, and he has ordered a
newspaper sent at his expense to each

ally be admitted that the press is much
greater educator than any OF them.-The

By the Miowera the other day,
we received direct from the fac
tory, a magnificent assortment
Of French China. Among the
lot we have two new stock pat
terms, from which customers
may select either one piece or
ten dozen. In this way custo-
mers may replace any breakage
at the lowest possible cost and
without the necessity of purcbas-
ing an entire new set.
In this same invoice we have
some of the most beautifully de-
corated toilet sets ever shown in
Honolulu. There are made of
fine crockery and will ornament
any wash stand.
A fad among Honolulu peo-
pie is decorating china. AT the
exhibition by the pupils of Miss
French at Oahu College a short
time ago, some beautiful speci-
mems, the work of her pupil,
were shown and will stand COM
parison with the work of pro-
fessional artists abroad. Our
stock which was opened a day or
two ago contains all sorts ofpieces
and in many sizes. They are
made especially for decorating
and are inexpensive.

Mount Washington Forest.

The recent transfer of forest proper

which the trustees under the will of
David Pingree parted with the posses
sion of the Presidential peaks which
they have held for 30 years. does not, as
we understand the situation, entail any
threats Of denuding the forests in that
particular locality. If we are correctly
informed-and our Information comes
from parties to the etransaction--the new
owners of the property have no inten-
ton of destroying the forests for which
they have paid so much money. 1t is
their intention to institute a system of
forest management there by means of
which they will be enabled to secure "a
constant revenue from their forest
lands and at the same time perpetuate
the growth of trees for timber. In other
