TROUBLE ABOUT FASHIONS.

One of the London papers says
that the radicals in the fashions
for dress have made great efforts
to inspire the Prince of Wales
with, dislike for the plug hat, but
he has finally concluded not to
change the fashion, and is most
emphatic about it. On the
other hand, the radicals in the
fashions of Chinese dress, have
petitiOned the EmeprOr for years
to issue a decree fOrbidding the
growth of pig tails. The En-
peror being a Tartar, declines to
issue the decree. The apostles of
the plug hat, and the apostles of
the pig tail embrace directly and
Indirectly, a very considerable
share of the people of the globe.
The spirit of reform is wanting
i'm both nations. The use of the
bicycle is also modifying the
ideas and manners of the mem
bers of Parliament. Instead of

are using the wheel, now appear
in soft hats and bicycle suits. Is
the next Parliament of Fashions
for the world to become active in
national Cancellation?
If the British and the
Chinese would make the mutual
exchange of the plug hat and the
pig tail for several years, it might
do more to create a harmony Of
races, than an exchange of goods
and merchandise.

SERIOUS VIEWS ABOUT THE
SUGAR INDUSTRY.

mo Juggling with figures can con-
ceal the fact that the world is over
producing sugar now and it would be
the extreme OF folly for us to under
take to increase the surplus above the
worlds consumption, which will be in
creased of necessity by Cuba after the
cessation of war, because there is lit
tie else that Cuba can produce. When
an article is selling at less than cost, it
cannot be profitable for us to go into
it, although the United States Treas
ury may make it profitable to certain
individuals On. Y Journal of Com
merce).
Secretary of Agriculture Will
on has lately stated that .within
10 years the United States will
be exporting sugar"
These are rather pessimistic
views and are not very pleasant
reading, for The Journal OF Com
merce is the most conservative
financial journal in the States,
and has the largest circulation
among the merchants of the East
ern States. Professor Wilson is
an enthusiast on the sugar beet
culture, and is using all the facil-
tiles of his department to en-
courage it. Instead of allowing
the farmers to experiment with it,
in a vague, unscientific way, he
has directed the Experimental
Stations toapply all means in their
power to obtain success. He may
be greatly mistaken in his opinion
that the States will be exporting
sugar within 10 years. 1t appears
to be the views of an enthusiast
He must see that there will be an
awful break somewhere. If Am
erica adds 100000 tons to the
sugar supply now overproduced
it will tend to revolutionize agri
culture in the States. This large
product must be protected" and
the grain farmers, if prices de-
cline after a while, as they will.
will ask for protection" also
Senator Cannon has already open
ed the attack.
But. whatever the course Of ev-
ents may be, we are served with
full notice of the dangerous situa-
ton of the sugar interests. A
shock of legislative lightning
struck these Islands in 1890. The
air is close and breeds storms.
On the other hand, the situation
in the States indicates that with
annexation, prosperity may con
tinue for several years. The SUI
gar beet. interest will insist on
protection. The revenue from the
duty on sugar will be needed.
The dark cloud is the Cuban sit
nation. If the Federal Govern.
ment undertakes in any way to
Americanize Cuba, it will be done
by fostering her sugar trade. 1t
cannot arrange for any trade OF
magnitude between the two
places, without encouraging the
sugar trade of Cuba. How that
can be done without apparently
injuring the sugar beet trade it is
not easy to see. But the "uneX
pected" has much to do with Am
erican politics and that is liable
to happen at any time.

HONORS
FOR
HAWAI-

At the Eastman Photographic
Competition held at London, Eng
land, in October, where thousands
of contestants had sent their finest
specimens in photography, honors
were conferred to our home artist,
D. HOWARD HITCHCOCK, who
succeeded in capturing a prize in
Glass A, which is no small COM
pliment to Mr.. Hitchcock, as the
contributors included many we'll
known artists from all parts of the
world.
Many people seem to think that
film exposure in this climate does
not compare favorably with colder
climates. The awarding of the
prize to a Hawaii contestant ought
to be sufficient proof to show that
equally as fine if not a superior
negative can be obtained in this
climate as any other.
We have copy of the picture
that captured the prize in our
window. Call and gaze at it.
