| ton. of the moment. 10 our GER
tain knowledge the beet sugar
men were organizing their forces
as early as 1892. Agricultural
publications have not lost an OPP
portunity TO instruct the farmers,
and public speakers have not been
idle at agricultural conventions of
one kind or another. In fact the
work has been done so we'll that it
was a comparatively easy matter
to marshal the forces when the
elections went the right way.
All the time these people have
been quietly carrying on their
campaign Hawaii has been asleep.
1t has depended on one or two
men stationed at Washington to
look after the diplomatic relations
and keep in touch with what was
going on in the outside political
circles likely to affect this coun-
trv's commerce. Such a task Is a
mental and physical impOssibility
for two men. The result has been
that Hawaii now awakes to dis
agreeable realities seldom dreamed
Of and never anticipated. Friends
in Congress were depended upon
to do what diplomatic representa-
tives could not do. Our leaders
evidently forgot that friends in
Congress always hold their ears to
the telephone lines of public sen
timent. That Is where they get
their orders.
Now our people find their special
representatives must combat in
few weeks the influence of a public
sentiment of several years growth.
In a few weeks they must trace
out the lines to find the underlying
power that determines this or that
mans vote. The lines invariably
lead back to the State or district
which the Senator or Congress
man represents. We find we have
to-begin work at the wrong end of
the line. We seek to accomplish
in a day what others have been
hammering at for months. Of
course the merits of our cause
counts for a great deal, but we
would have found ourselves in
much better condition than we are
today, if a little more of practical
politics had characterized the ac
ton of the community.

A POLITICAL LESSON.

Whatever the final outcome of
Hawaii's interests in the United
States tariff bill, the episode ought
to teach our local leaders a never
to-be-forgotten lesson in practical
politics. They must not make the
mistake that the opposition
brought to bear by the beet sugar
men is the result of work done dur
ing the few months since the cleo
ton of President Mckinley; they
must not think that the large in
fiuence these men are able to bring
to bear is the result of the inspira-

The New York Nation speaks
of Minister Sewall as "a shifty
character" Coming from a good
mugwump paper this is indeed
funny. The Nation numbers
among its national heroes numer-
Gus individuals who broke through
party lines and secured the defeat
of James G.. Blaine, the greatest
American statesman of recent
years. The Nations statement Is
simply an illustration of the lack
of honesty among so-called indie
pendent journals. 1t makes all the
difference in the world which way
a man shifts, whether he is put
down as "shifty" or as a noble
character who places principle
above the dictates of party leader.

TARIFF AND HAWAII.

Hawaii has good fighting
chance sums up the prospects of
our commercial relations as affec-
ted by legislation III the United
States Congress. The failure of
the Finance Committee to report
favorably upon the admission of
Hawaiian sugars free Of duty is
by no means reassuring, but we
see no occasion for Hawaii to throw
up its hands and admit defeat at
this point in the game.
The action of the Finance Com
mittee seems TO be one of those
unexplainable events that often
happen in legislative bodies. The
absence Of the usual exception of
Hawaiian sugars in the tariff bill
when introduced in the Senate
came a. a surprise to Senators and
Congressman. When the men on
the ground are puzzled it Is use
less for the people at this end of
the line 10 attempt to solve the
problem. We know the commit
tee left Hawaii out in the cold.
We must accept the fact and look
forward to the possibilities of sue
cess or failure as the tariff pro-
crosses through the legislative
mill. The Hawaiian clause now
has two chances for life: in the
Senate and in the Conference Com
mittees made up of members from
the Senate and House to which the
bill will undoubtedly be referred
when the Senate has completed its
work.
1t is practically foregone con-
clusion that the tariff debate in the
Senate will be of an entirely diff
ferent nature from that in the
House. Every item of the bill will
be subjected to searching discus
sion. The rules of the Senate and
the questionable Republican ma
iority will not allow arbitrary ac-
ton in shutting off debate. With
the gold Democrats, silver Demo
Gratis, silver Republicans and Pop
ulists to deal with the Republican
Senators have a wild team to han
die. Concessions will have to be
made to carry the bill through.
This Is where Hawaii good chances
for success come in. This country
has a number of friends in the
Senate who have given notice that
they will oppose the tariff measure
from first TO last unless the Hawai-
ian clause is inserted In the sugar
schedule. These friends are strong
enough numerically TO block the
bill for months and possibly Sc
cure Its defeat unless their demands
are needed. We doubt whether
the feeling against Hawaii is such
that even the most rabid abrOga-
tionists will hold out when the
whole measure Is threatened.
At the present time the narrow
Republican majority seems to be
an element OF strength for Hawaii.
OF one thing we may be sure,
there will be an immense amount
of shifting and shuffiing due to the
demands from representatives of
varying interests The complec
ton of the tariff bill is already
decidedly changed from the origin
al Dingley measure and under the
fire of Senatorial discussion still
more changes may be expected.
1t is next to impossible to predict
what a day may bring forth, but
Hawaii's cause is by no means lost.
As the danger increases our friends
are rallying.
