HILO AND NEW YORK.

The New Workers have more of a
grievance against the Federal Govern
ment than Hilo has against the Gov
eminent of Hawaii. The n. Y. Tribune
charges that owing to the shallow wa
ter over the Sandy Hook bar, large
steamers are driven away from New
York, and the commerce of the port Is
suffering. For some years large steam
ers have crossed the bar only at high
tide.
1t publishes statistics showing that
from 1890 to 1896 only s., 252, 500 has been
expended in the harbor improvements
of that port, while s296, 46S,653 has been
spent elsewhere. Less than per cent,
has been spent on n. Y. harbor. while
65 cents out of every 100 cents of the
tariff revenues comes from that port.
The trade of New York is 300 times
greater than that of the Kentucky
river. while more money has been
spent by Congress on that river than
upon the great harbor.
The case OF Hilo is not so disheart-
ening. 1t has been vastly more infiu,
entail in the Hawaiian Legislature,
than the great metropolis of America
has been with Congress. We cite this
case. not in order to suggest that Hilo
has had enough, but to show that Con-
crosses and Legislatures are curious
critters and cut up queer capers,
even when they abound with good men.

The unanimity OF Congress in the
Cuban affair, ought TO remove the fric-
ton it has caused in the Hawaiian
matter, especially in the House.
The debate in the Senate on Senator
Bacon's proposed amendment to the
treaty submitting it to the native vote
may consume some time. 1t may even
be the critical test of the strength Of
the vote. Some Senators, who are
rather Indifferent about the treaty may
get rid of any responsibility by voting
in favor OF its submission to the ma
tives. There is some danger from this
source. But on the whole, there has
been little change in the situation
since advices by previous mails.

President Mckinley has obtained the
confidence of both political parties. As
it has become evident that he was not
swift for war. the stronger is the feel
ing that he can be thoroughly trusted.
1t looks as if the cause of the Maine
disaster will not be so definitely ascer-
tanned as to justify the United States
in taking any action in the matter
They will not act on the ex-parte evil
dence of their own board of inquiry,
unless that board is positive of its con-
victions Mere probabilities or sus-
picious circumstances do not justify
war in President McKinley's view.
Even if the Maine explosion was caus-
ed by a mine or torpedo, Spain will not
be charged with the Offense unless it
can be proved that her agents had
some connection with it. Now it is
probable that the United States will
hasten to declare war. The chances are
that the excited Spaniards may COM

business will be fiourishing in the

everything go by the board, And they
will be entitled to it.
As a merely boom" affair. the es-
tablishing OF industries is Of little con-
sequence AS a political affair. as a

Of preventing disturbance and racial
conflicts It is supremely important
affair.

we'd one day that President Dole's pres
ence in Washington was a matter Of
''greas public necessity" within the
Constitution. 1t acted instantly. An
other great public necessity" the di-
versjfying of industries is utterly

Truth WANTED.

An instance Of the way, by which
immigrants and farmers, are led astray
and are ruined, in entering new in
dustries, Is furnished by the history OF
the prices Of citrus fruit in California.
In exploiting the citrus industry OF
the State. the land boomers, and their
allies, the newspapers, persistently
declared that the oranges Of California
were equal ana really superior to
those grown in Florida. This state
ment was reiterated for years, and
entered into the estimates OF the horti-
culturists.
When the California Grange finally
began to appear in the Atlantic mar
kets it failed to bring the price Of the
Florida orange. The fact was that the
Florida orange. especially what was
called the Indian river kind, was more
juicy, sweeter, and had a thinner skin
than the California orange. While the
agricultural papers, and the boom jour
mails Of California were telling the in
experienced farmers how valuable
their oranges would be, the fruit trade
journals, circulating only among the
cold blooded men engaged not in boom
ing land. but in the fruit trade, inyari,
nIv regarded ria Florida oranges as
superior TO the California, just as they
valued the sweet Delaware peach above
the 'leathery" peach OF California. But
the boom journals Of California never
published this important information,
and left the orange growers in the
dark on the matter. To do so would be
10 check the citrus boom.
Since the fatal freeze of 's5 in Flori-
da, and the wide destruction of the
