DRIVING AWAY GOOD MEN.

The Consul General for Portugal
made a remark on Thursday, during an
interview, which makes the question of
desirable immigration, a more serious
matter than many would like TO admit.
He stated that he was surprised to
see so many Of a very good class OF
Portuguese who had prospered here,
now willing TO emigrate TO Timur or
elsewhere. Also that the Portuguese
with large families were not considered
desirable on the plantations. To this
should be added the fact that q decent
Portuguese laborer. with wife and
several children, cannot live as PLAN
taion laborer on $3.50 a month, es-
pecially when the plantation refuses to
give him a patch Of land, upon which
to raise home supplies.
Here is the situation. With a COM
mercil prosperity upon US that is per-
haps unmatched in the world. with
only a small population on the Islands,
We find good class Of Portuguese"
ready 10 abandon the country for want
Of the means Of making q decent Iiv-
ing. We are not referring TO the thrift
less, lazy Portuguese, but TO a good
class" It may not be very numerous
but it is desirable.
Now, gentlemen, Legislators, Minis
tiers and citizens you have the matter
before you You have repeatedly de-
clared that the Portuguese were de
sirable settlers" On excellent authority
you hear that q very good class" of
them are ready to leave because they
canno: make living. These are not
bummers, but industrious people who
are familiar with the country.
Now before talking about any more
desirable" immigrants, suppose you
find out what the matter is with these
people. Where and what is the trouble?
They have not means sufficient for COT
fee cultivation. Would you drive them
TO the plantations TO compete with the
lowest priced labor? Do you intimate
that decent Portuguese can take
care Of his wife and his children on
plantation wages? If you do. you make
mistake in educating the children.
For every educated child becomes a
fre-brand, under such conditions.
II a good class" Of Portuguese can't
get along here. what can good class Of
American farmers do?
You are al once brought up with
round turn. Aside from the present
small coffee industry, you present
to the desirable immigrant no me-
thod OF self-support on the soil. on any
profitable or large scale, excepting the
wages Of the plantation, increased
somewhat by the share system.
There are a score of profitable horti-
cultural industries with world markets
which may be opened to the Portu-
guese and Americans if you give up
talk and political resolutions, and get
down TO business There is an outlet
for tropical fruits and vegetables from
these Islands to the annual value OF
perhaps 100000, if the business is
properly organized The trouble is gen.

ing amount of hard work. patience.

PRIyATEERS.

Our sugar interests are closely con-
nected with any war between the
United States and Spain. Through a
typographical error We said yesterday
that it is now probable that the
United States win hasten to declare
war against Spain" We wrote it: 1T

At the same time, should it occur,
Spain would let loose lot of priya-
teers on American commerce, and the

This industry should be so well or
ganized and understood here, that
when any o.1e proposes TO engage in it
the solid commercial facts will be
presented to him, and not the boom
nonsense, which has wrecked the hopes
and indeed the lives OF so many excel
lent people in the fruit culture OF Cali
fornia.
Rather than have the coffee industry
set back by the failure Of those who
have over-estimated its value. We
would even advocate Government aid
to it, in a guarded and limited way.
We cannot afford TO let it drop.

THE VALUE OF COFFEE.

The statement recently made in the
Bulletin that kona coffee will COM
mand s cents per pound more than the
Brazilian. is repeated in the Hawaiian
and is intended We presume for the
ears OF those proposing to immigrate
and engage in the coffee business.
The coffee industry may be made so
valuable 70 these Islands, as political
factor, as the fort" of Occidental civil
ization here. We earnestly protest
against statements regarding it which
are probably not.true, and may simply
bring US trouble in the future.
Kone coffee. at the normal prices OF
Central American coffee will pay well.
Why tell the stranger that it is worth
much more than it probably is?
We venture to say, and will make
money stake on it, that if four cups of
coffee are prepared at the some time,
using the genuine Brazilian, Salvador
or other Central American kind, to-
geLher with the Java, and 10 habitual
coffee drinkers are asked TO pick out
the Kona coffee after tasting each cup,
without having knowledge of the kind
il contained, six out of the 10 will not
pick out the Kona coffee. We have
been told that recently a cup OF Kona
coffee intentionally adulterated, was
given TO one who claimed TO be "a cof-
fee drinker for 10 years" and he pro-
it the finest coffee he had ever
tasted, and was positive it would bring
the highest prices in the foreign mar
kets.
We ought to known just what the
market value of our coffee is. 1t should
have been done long ago. As we sug-
gested the other day, if the Govern
ment would send 90 bags OF it to the
right man in either Chicago or New
YORK, the relative value of our coffee
can be escertained.
{ The difference in opinion between the
men in the trade and the amateurs is
illustrated in the matter of oysters.
The oysters OF Long Island Sound sup
ply the New York market, and are
worth about three times as much in the
as the oysters of the Chesa-
peake Bay. The great hotel at Old
Point Comfort, Virginia, to which the
richest and most fashionable people of
the Northern cities resort, is supplied
with Chesapeake Bay oysters. For
years, it has been matter of common
occurrence for the high livers of New
York City or Boston, to visit the hotel,
deYour the bay oysters and declare
that they were the finest oysters they
had ever eaten" The change of air
had given these high livers an improy
ed appetite, and the bay oysters got
the credit for it. Oysters of this kind
delivered by the hundred thousand
bushels in the markets OF the Northern
cities bring, as we have said, only one
third of the price Of the Northern oys-
ters. The further north the oyster
grows, the better the favor. This is an
instance of the common error of in,
diyidual judgment.
It is possible, of course, that by en-
terprising business methods the Ha-
waiian coffee might obtain limited
and special market in Europe. a very
little expense and trouble would have
it several years ago.

Wilhelmina Euthroned With Pomp and
Ceremony at Amsterdam.
AMSTERDAM, Sept. THE events of
yesterday were but the overture for far
more important ceremonies today, upon
the occasion of the long awaited en-
throning Of Queen Wilhelmina, who
came of age Aug. 81. The day began
with salute of 1,1Ol guns and a ma
jestic choral, performed by trumpeters
from the crenelated towers of the five
great churches of Amsterdam.
The queen, looking very well in her
robes of state, bowed from side to side.
as she passed to the throne, and on
reaching it she turned and again bowed
and took her seat A moment later her
majesty arose and, in clear and per-
fectly calm voice, spoke as follows

Since the death Of my ever lamented
father and until have completed my
eighteenth year, the government has
been in the hands of my mother.
have now assumed the government and
have issued a proclamation to my

After the address the queen sat for a
moments and then again arose and re.
cited, in the same clear tones, the usua
oath to uphold the constitution, defend
the independence of the country, pro
tect the liberty of her subjects, using
therefor all legal means, "as a gooG
