their defender says: The reason they
are making so much Is probably he
cause there are so few reiincres.
When there are more refneries, the
profits will be divided and sub-divid-
ed. and. therefore, each refiner will
make less" In view of the history of
sugar refining and of oil refining,
this is really refreshing. The large
refners are going to allow refineries

thirty and from thirty to three hun
dred." Try them. Verify the Argo-
naut must think its readers have no
knowledge of the great trade move
ments in the past quarter of CEN
fury, and that they are ignorant of the
literature on monopolies. And the
fun of the argument lies in the fact
of the Trust having bought into the
jacksonville refinery-the Trust which
keeps refineries idle in all directions
in order that it may manipulate the
market. The Argonaut should look
up it's past files and then sit down in
dust and ashes to mourn over its pres
ent departure from the high ideals of
former years.

Among the 100000 post offices of the
world represented at the international
Postal Union, Hawaii has it's place,
with its forty-six offices. Postal facil-
tiles on these islands have increased
from the days when the letters were
dumped on somebody's counter and
each one came and chose for himself
That was in the days when we had a
mail once in six months. But the
growth of post offices in the United
States is wonderful. In 1889 there
were but Is post offices, in 1900, there
were 9O3. In 1925 they had increased
to 5677; in 1884 there were $4,000. and
at the present time the number is
10000. and they may increase in the
next decade to 100000. The develop
ment of postal facilities during the
last twenty-five years under the in
fiuence of the International Postal
Union has been truly wonderful. Every
recognized Power on the face of the
earth is represented in it, including
Abyssinia and China.

REFINERIES GALORE.

The Argonaut continues it's cam
paign against the islands, but the
powder seems to be getting somewhat
moist. Three articles in the issu of
May II are devoted directly to Hawaii,
and one to booming up beet sugar
As far as beet sugar is concerne l.,
there is no kick coming from our di-
rection. Beet sugar never can replace
cane sugar in some of the uses Of sac
charine matter, so there viii always
remain market for cane sugar, even
if it is not so large as it is now.
But when the Argonaut gets off an
argument such as this, one has to
smile. In reply to the Press of the
Coast, which has charged the refiners
with making "inordinate profits"

OF the new outlets for human in
genuity there seems no end, especially
if by any means there is spice of
dishonesty about it. The spider has
generally been held up as the most
virtuous of insects: but alas, the poor
fellow is now employed for nefarious
purposes. When bottle of wine is
called for and it is brought up and
covered with cobwebs, one is apt to
consider that the vintage is old. But
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has discovered that in one
village in France. and at another near
Philadelphia an industry has sprung
up which consists in farming spiders
for the purpose of stocking cellars
and thus giving new wine bottles the
appearance of great age. Spiders are
sold at $40 hundred. We have some
fine breeds of spiders on the islands,
and it might not be a bad scheme to
go into the business regularly. This
is rare chance for aging the new
wines of California. But. seriously,
who would have thought of such a
| scheme.

ANNEXATION.

ANY one who takes up the files OF
the papers from the United States
must be struck with how much is
said upon the Hawaiian question.
That the California papers should be
full of it is by no means surprising.
California is State where two oppos-
ing forces meet; it is, moreover, the
State which benefits directly by its
trade with the islands. That column
upon column, therefore, should APP
pear in that State and in every paper
of importance in that State, is to be
expected. The pros and cons of alb
rogation, or, rather, of violation-for
abrogation would mean giving years
notice. according to the terms of the
Reciprocity Treaty, while the sudden
cutting of it off would be the viola
ton of solemn covenant with the
islands. are argued with ability and
fierceness. The chances for and the
arguments in favor of annexation are
discussed at length. We're this only
in California, the question of the Ha-
waiian islands might be regarded as
only of local Importance.
But it is not of local Importance.
There is hardly paper in the United
States which has not something to
say upon the Hawaiian question. The
great dailies of New York, and of
Chicago, treat of it; old established
papers in New England towns discuss
it, and so do the journals of the South
and of the Northwest.
Were annexation the dead issue that
some people claim, this free use of
printers ink would never have been
poured forth upon it. People in the
busy centers of the world do not have
time to chew the rag over bygones:
there are too many live issues to oc-
cupy their thoughts and their pens.
BY no means is this the case. In
deed, annexation occupies more
thought than the Treaty does. An
neXation appeals to the patriotism of
the United States. The necessity of
providing a bulwark in the Pacific
against future aggression, appeals to
every American heart, and thousands
favor annexation who do not give the
commercial view passing thought.
AS has been stated again and again,
annexation is a popular idea through
out the United States. 1t has a clique
of bitter opponents, and that clique
has power; but it has not nearly so
much power as anti-anneXatonsts
down here would like to believe. Not
only is it popular with the people, but
it is a measure which is thoroughly
believed in by the Executive. There are
many who think that the extra SEES
sion will hear nothing of the annexa-
ton question. but information receiv-
ed here points to possiblity-nay
more, of great probability, of its
following Immediately after tn tariff
bill
Annexation has friends in both
parties. 1t is Republican measure;
but it has sturdy following of Dem
ocrats. Representative Kings resolu-
ton the other day was intended to
shew that the Democratic annexation
contingent was alive to the situation
and that the Republicans should not
have all the credit of the move. When
Statesmen are seeking to get credit
for supporting a measure we can very

to be successful. There is no dead is.
sue in annexation, though those here
who hope to make something out OF
Hawaii's future difficulties would be
only too glad if it were.

The oldest known form of natural hy-

that circumstance the Asphaltum lake.
Tradition says that 1t used to appear on
the surface In considerable masses and was
collected by tho Arabs and exported to
Egypt, where 1t was used in embalming
and for few purposes In the arts. The
ancients were also acquainted with the
liquid form of bitumen-petroleum
