matches were played yesterday on the
links near Rosslyn. The day was, perhaps,
the worst Of any for the playing. an east
wind interfering with the freedom of the
play. Only two matches were played. Dr.
Ralph jenkins and Mr.. Edward F. Riggs
were pitted against Messrs. George HELEN
and Henry May. and succeeded in winning
by the score of UP and to play. The
second game was between Messrs. J. w.
Lockett and Horace Wylie against Messrs.
John F. Wilkins and Ormsby McCammon.
the former pair winning with up and l
to play. This narrows down the contest.
and leaves the finals of the foursome match
to be played between the winners of the
matches yesterday. The players will ar
range for date for the playing of the
same. The consolation match will also be
played at a later date, and the finish of
these will wind up the tourney for the

Tariff
VagarieS..

In the United States the Government
allows a rebate to the manufacturers
ON all agate ware shipped out of the
country. II is one of the fine points
in the tariff question, and enables the
foreign importer to compete with the
dealers in the United States in the sale
of these articles. II makes II possi-
BILE for our customers to buy such
goods from us at lower prices than
they can buy them i'm San Francisco.
The appended list shows but few of
the articles in this line sold by us.
and where more than one price is Civ
en- il will be understood that the
price is graded with the different sizes
of the articles. In every instance you
will observe that our prices are much
lower than the same goods may be
bought for at the Coast. These prices
are taken from the catalogue of one of
the largest House Furnishing Goods
dealers in San Francisco. 1t is bona
fde. and the goods are identical in
quality as those advertised in the cat
alogue. 1t is hard to believe that the
people of Honolulu-2.100 miles from

for less money.

American Union Party Ticket.
HAWAIIAN LANDS.

The San Francisco Argonaut de-
votes nearly column of editorial
to a dissertation upon the taking of
the land of the Hawaiians.
Congressman Cannon the other
day was looking for land for the
United States naval station and
found that the owners were willing
to give so much for the considera-
ton of a dollar, and that the rest
could be bought at reasonable
price. There is no land steal in the
annexation movement. AS was
proved by the Census the Hawaiians
under the Republican Government
had been given an opportunity OF
acquiring land for homesteads.
There will be no taking of land
without compensation, and after
annexation there will be no claims
to pay because no legal claims
exist. The people of France might
as. we'll be hunting for Chilperies'
descendants, or those of Italy be
seeking these of Sallust, as the
United States Government seeking
for owners of the soil on islands
every foot of which has better title
deeds than those of many owner
in the United States or Europe.
The argument used is nonsense,
but at the same time it is the
nonsense which goes down with a
certain class of people who know
nothing of the true condition of
affairs and who never trouble to
inform themselves. What the
Argonaut uses might be very good
crowd cry, but it will not go own
with those who know, and Senator
Morgan. who is attacked in the
article, may well afford to smile at
the feeble effort of his opponents

QUITE A FARCE.

There should be some distinct
regulations with regard to vessels
here. The other day when the Peru
arrived there was a sort of quasi
quarantine ordered and on appli-
cation of reporter from this paper
to go on board he was refused. AT
the same time hotel runners and
baggage men were allowed to go
on board, see the passengers and
then mingle with the crowd.
This is simply ridiculous. If the
authorities wish to keep a quaran-
tine, even for half an hour, they
are perfectly justified in doing so,
but to shut out one class of the
community and allow another to go
on board is merely playing at
quarantine in a manner which must
inspire contempt. The newspaper
reporter when he goes to a vessel or
any where else represents the pub
lie. 1t is for the benefit OF the
public that he gathers the news, and
discrimination between him and
hotel runners is for petty authority
to discriminate against the public.
1t is, on the face of it, unlikely
that the Board of Health ever
issued any such idiotic dictum that
hotel runners and others would not
infect the crowd on the wharf, but
some of the less intelligent of its
instruments have done so, and the
Board should look those gentlemen
up and promptly sit on them.
Either have regulations or don't
have them, but as things are man
aged now they are utterly illogical
and absurd, put the members of the
Board of Health in anything but
an enviable light and result in an
actual farce.

very wholesome fear of the immi-
grafton from Japan, which has
already pressed upon some of the
Northern possessions, notably
Thursday Island. On this island the
white man has been nearly driven
out by the Japanese. With such an
object lesson before them the Aus
tralians saw the necessity OF curbing
the quiet power of expansion which
Japan possesses, and thev have re-
garded the annexation of these
Islands as a step towards checking
Japanese influence in the North
Pacific, which might be eventually
extended to the South Pacific.
Politically the United States will
not take more active part in Samoan
affairs than Great Britain and Ger
many do. In tripartite arrange
ments there will always be one
representative who will take the
lead of the other two and, as to in
huence in Samoa, it will and does
much depend upon who is the
representative of the United States,
Great Britain or Germany.
With regard to trade that is
matter of competition, and if the
trade goods of the Colonial traders
are of inferior quality to American
trade goods the former may not
be surprised that the Samoans buy
the goods or the latter. If the
Colonial axes are blunt the Samoans
will certainly buy the sharp axes
supplied by the sharper trader. But
politically Samoa is not yet above
the horizon, so the Australians
need not worry.

The situation in Greece will be-
come somewhat like that of Egypt.
According to the latest advices the
six powers guarantee the payment
of the indemnity to the Turks. The
six powers take possession of the
finances of Greece and run them
under a mixed commission repre-
senting the owners of the Grecian
debt. A similar scheme has worked
we'll with the Egyptian finances and
will probably work we'll for Greece.
In point of fact the paying of the
indemnity may bring about such a
readjustment of her finances that
in a few years she may be better off
than she has ever been. AS for
Turkey, the indemnity which rolls
into her Golfers simply goes into a
bottomless pit, and will bring her
practically no advantage. 1t has
come to be an acknowledged fact
now tt at the receipt of money ir-
demnity works more harm to the
nation rec Ewing it than it does to the
nation paying. Japan is special
case in point. In spite OF he large
indemnity paid by China, japanese
finances are in anything but a
healthy condition at the present
moment, and Japan's edit abroad
is by no means first class.
