SUGAR DEBATE OPENED.
House Schedule With Slight Ad-
vance Adopted.


WASHINGTON, June 1O.-The long de-
ferred debate on the sugar schedule OF
the tariff bill came on abruptly at
o'clock today, after the Senate had dis
posed of the cereals in the agricultural
schedule. Jones, of Arkansas, opened the
debate; to some extent answering Aid
rich's statement on the sugar schedule
Vest severely criticised the Sugar Trust,
and argued that the rates were further
tribute to its vast resources Caffery, of
Louisiana, also opposed the schedule as
a whole.
No final action was taken on any fea-
ture of the schedule, further than the
withdrawal of the original Senate COM
mittee amendments. This leaves the
House provisions of the bill, with an
amendment increasing the House differ
entail from $4,000 to $500 cents per
pound
The provisions relating to the Hawai-
ian Islands went over by mutual consent.
Early in the day Tillman, of South Car
the amendment, giving an export bounty
on agricultural products. The bounty
amendment was defeated-1O to 50.
Morgan at this point gave notice of the
following amendments TO be offered at
the proper time:

levied and shall be assessed and collected
on sugar that is the product of any re-

the business of refining sugar, in whose
business there is employed less than $780,

nected in business by agreement with
any other person or corporation engaged
in refining sugar, are exempt from such
tax. The laws for the collection of a tax
on tobacco, so far as they are applicable
TO the subject of this enactment, shall

Commissioner Fitzgerald's In
vestigations in the sugar beet fields
of California indicate that when
it comes to producing sugar with
Asiatic labor Hawaii doesn't make
such bad showing after all. We
appreciate the short comings of our
California brethren and suppose
they will suddenly drop that end
of their anti-annexation argu-
ment. But the fact that Hawaii
does not suffer in the comparison
should not cool the ardor of our
people to secure a still larger per
centage of white labor. We need
the American population if Cali
fornia doesn't. While we willing
ly profit by the mistakes of those
opposed TO US, the white labor
movement of Hawaii was founded
on broader principle than the
temporary effect it might have in
the annexation campaign. 1t will
not be forgotten as soon as the
country is within the fold of the
American Union. 1t will be con
tinued with renewed vigor and an
nexation will assure final success.

lief that the news received from
the States should be the signal for
rally around the Registration
Office. and livlier interest in the
coming election. a great many
people seem TO have forgotten that
all the duties of citizenship will not
be laid aside after the annexation
treaty has been ratified. They
don't appear to realize that legisla-
ton viii be required after Hawaii
becomes a part and parcel of the
United States. In this their hour
of enthusiastic Joy they apparently
do not appreciate that we need the
best men the country can offer in
both the legislative halls. They
have evidently formed the opinion
that, with the ratification of the
Treaty. soon expected, local
affairs will require no more atten-
ton, that they can lock up their
political ideas and place them
away in some out of the may cor
ner never to be referred to again
by the present generation.
1t has been said that annexation
will change the whole complexion
of Legislative machinery. Perhaps
it will and perhaps 1t will not. At
all events 1t is the manifest duty
of the citizens of Hawaii to be
prepared to meet whatever may
come. Just at the present time we
know that an annexation treaty
has been decided upon by Presi-
dent Mckinley. We know if that
treaty is accepted by the United
States Senate that the Senate of
Hawaii viii accept ii without
bubble or question. We know
that Hawaii will accept the form
of annexation offered by the Unit
ed States. And this is all we know
beyond the possibility of a doubt.
The people have reason to be
firm in the belief that the pathway
of the annexation treaty in the
United States Senate will be
smooth and free from obstruction.
But this knowledge and this belief |
is by no means a call for the people
to cast aside the armor of thought
full, careful, progressive citizen
;hip. The settlement of the diplo-
matte future of Hawaii is fore
.hadowed. That fact should quick
en- not retard the interest in the
of local political affairs.
Honest, conservative local govern
nent will be as great blessing I'M
Ter annexation as under any other
political condition. If Hawaii is
o continue IN the pathway of pro
PRESS that has characterized its gen
raj history since organized govern
nent was established, our citizens
must keep their shoulders constant
y and unitedly at the wheel, never
in their enthusiasm over success
giving away to the policy, "after
us the deluge."

ANNEXATION TREATY.

The annexation news received by
ne Australia comes as a very happy
surprise IN fact il was so unexpected
by The general public, that many are
inclined 20 the belief that there is
something wrong. We are happy to
state however. thar the annexation
treaty has received studied attention
from President Mckinley and his ad-
vissrs for many weeks. That annexa-
ton has been decided upon by the ad-
ministra1on as the only feasible solu-
uon q he Hawaiian question and the
Republican declaration of control"
hzs been known in the inner govern
nenr circles for some time. the only
unsettled problem being the form Of
the Treaty and the tine and manner
OF its presentation 10 Congress. Just
why the Treaty is brought forward in
the extra session. when only a few
months since friends were cautoning
HaEaiians against forcing the hand of
the administration it is impossible to
state al this time.
And why should We ask the intrica-
oiez OF this development of affairs re
oeived 50 cordially in Hawaii? Here
is the fact and that is enough. We
know thar Hawaii's Representatives in
Washington have withheld from any
attempt to force the hand of the ad-
uinis5ration- We know that our rep
reseutatives have presented their case
honestly. hopefully and patiently, con
hdeut that their cause would receive
the consideration dictated by the true
principles OF firm, conservative Ameri-
can progress. We know that Hawaii's
attitude has been expectant but always
respectful. and our people may well
give expression 10 the satisfaction felt
IN consequence Of the good Judgment
shown by Government officials and the
gratifying response from President Nc
Kinlsy
What 1ew straws appear upon the
surface seem TO indicate that the dis
cussion over reciprocity would go to
such lengths and possibly prove a fac
tor in blocking the tariff measure that
the launching OF the whole Hawaiian
affair was considered the most salts
factory method Of settling the matter /
Il Is also vel known that many Sen
ztors favor annexation but are opposed |
70 the continuation Of the Reciprocity /
Treaty. We cannot feel that the an
uexauon treaty would be submitted 1
without g careful canvass Of the stu
alton or without a quiet poll of the
Senate which showed the necessary

be taken unless there was a clear field
for speedy ratification that will place
the question OF Hawaiian annexation
beyond The borders Of doubt. We fully
appreciate that in dealing with politics
il is not always best 10 be too positive
OF results. but We cannot speak slight

NO PROPERTY RIGHTS IN ADyER-
TISEMENTS,

A decision has just been handed down
in the United States Court OF Appeals
at Chicago that rhcrc arc no property
rights in an advertisement.
The decision Is the result of an action
brought by 4 New York iron finn, which
sued for damages from an Illinois man
ufacturcr for copying the firms cata-
got no redress whatever. '"To be cnti-
tied to 4 copyright" the Judge held
"the article must have by and OF itself
some value as composition, at least 20
the extent Of serving some purpose 9TH
er than as mere advertisement. The
object OF the provision was to promote
the dLsseminat ton OF learning by Undue
ing intellectual labors in works which
would promote the general knowledge in
science and useful arts. 1t Is not de-
signed as protection to trndesmcn In
the particular manner in which they

The Courts position can be easily I'M
derstood. but the fact must not be for
gotten that the money value of an
original idea In writing or illustrating
an advertisement is often much greater
than the money value of some poems
and stories, which the law Is ever ready
to defend. Besides, many advertise
merits do equally us much, If not more
'ho promote the dissemination OF
knowledge" Than do very many compo-
sitions which the law protects by means
of the copyright. The art OF writing
