VI. Whitney, in the Planters
Monthly for March, gives facts OBJ
tanned from personal experience.
While Mr.. Whitney was connected
with the sugar business in 1677-7S
he succeeded in grating the La
haina cane with the common pota-
to cane grown by natives in the up
lands. The result was a superior
cane for higher attitudes now
known as "Whitney Cane" or
yellow Bamboo" In this Incl
dent we find still another argument
in favor of a Government expert
ment station. Time and again we
find the advocates of new agricul-
tural industries overwhelmed by
the cry: 1T can't be done" Yet
every once in a while we see in
cidents cropping up that prove that
many Of these impossibilities can
be accomplished. How much more
might be done if the Bureau OF
Agriculture We're given land and
money to work with, thus guaran-
teeing systematic and progressive
experiments for the direct benefit
of our smaller agricultural indus
tries.

The Literary Digest, in review
ing the opinions expressed by the
American press on the Arbitration
Treaty, makes interesting extracts
from the Irish, French, Spanish
and German American papers.
Almost without exception the lr-
ish-American papers condemn the
measure from beginning to end.
The French and Spanish speak in
an Indifferent manner, taking the
position that the treaty Is an eX-
pertinent that there Is no harm III
trying. The German-Americam
organs seem to be about evenly di-
vided, with possibly a narrow ma
jority in favor. There Is nothing
surprising in this review. To make
the average Irishman believe that
Great Britain can he honest in the
arbitration of any matter would be
to accomplish a seven days wonder.
The simple fact that Great Britain
Is mentioned Is enough to make
the Irishman mad. While the
French, Spanish and Germans are
not lovers of Great Britain, they
are not so blinded by prejudice
that they cannot see some possible
good coming out of general arbi
tratiOn.

United states Cruisers Are Watching
southern Waters

southern waters
PENSACOLA, Fla, March 9.-The
filibustering excitement was revived
here this morning when the cruiser
Marblehead suddenly steamed into the
harbor and came TO anchor near Mont
gomery. She came from the vicinity
of Apalchicola to take on coal, leaving
an armed launch and crew there to
keep watch until her return. 1t is
an open secret that the cars of arms
and boats that left Jacksonville on
Thursday have arrived here. The
cars were opened and the contents
could clearly be seen. A body of Cub
ans went TO Apalchicola, and it is
known that a customs officer has gone
from here to that port. The fact that
arms and surf boats were shipped here
on open cars and the Cubans went in
broad daylight to Apalchicola, leads
the public TO conclude that the whole
movement is only a ruse TO divert the
attention of the Officers from some
other point on the coast where opera
tons are being carried on. No shore
leave is granted the men on the Mar
blehead or the Montgomery, and it is
impossible to learn anything of their
future movements.

TREATY LIMITATIONS.

The bearing of the judgment OF
the Supreme Court, IN the Iaku
case, OH our international affairs
should be we'll understood by the
laymen. 1t is not the purpose OF
the Advertiser TO call it III ques-
ton, but rather to put 1t IN such
a shape that it may he clearly I'M
derstood. The Court does not give
at length Its reasons for the con-
illusions arrived at, owing, no
doubt, TO the need of an imme
date decision. The lawyers would
be glad to have had these reasons
In detail, as the questions involved
have not only a local But also an
international aspect. The neces-
sary brevitiy of the decision Is
therefore unfortunate.
The Court holds that the treaty
provisions with Japan and other
countries are not In force, so far
as judicial proceedings are con
cerned, until immigrants, or the
persons of foreign birth have land
ed here. Here is probably an inter
national question. Have the Ha-
waiians no right, under the treaty,
until they reach JAPAN If Ha
waiian merchant proposes to re-
side in Japan, and makes prepar-
alton accordingly, and sells out his
property here, is he barred out
from landing in Japan because he
has not got a residence there? Can
the japanese Government say to
him: You have no rights" until
you land! If one of the Japanese
now in quarantine is robbed by a
native, what is his remedy! The
Court holds that he has no rights
under the treaty until he Is resi-
dent. But it also holds that he is
not a resident until he has been
admitted to the country. We sug-
gest these queries, in order to show
how readily serious questions I'M
der international law may arise.
We heartily desire that the decis-
ion of the Court will stand good as
international Flaw. At the same
time it Will do us no harm TO study |
on these questions.
The decision of the Court that
the treaty privileges do not operate
until there is landing, raises the
broad question, when do the pri-
vileges begin and where, do they
endl We can decide that for our
selves, but neither the United
States, or Great Britain, or Japan
will consider themselves bound by
it, excepting so far as it has force
of reasoning, and comes within the
law of "amity" if it comes at all.

ABOUT BIKES.

An ex-dealer in wheels is
credited with saying, "a man
can buy one of fifty bicycles
and not make a mistake. "
What he meant to infer was,
that the material from which
the Black Manufacturing

bune bicycles is so uni
formly perfect; that the
workmanship is of such a
superior character, that out
of fifty wheels, one is as
good as another.
The 'o7 model Tribune has
