comes that cheap labor is the mos
expensive of all labor. There is alst
moral element in labor, that has ,
real value in dollars and cents, but tn,
average capitalist does not know how
to get at it, or recken it up because il
is not in figures. The planting inter
est here has had Asiatic labor ION
tap If the faucet was turned il
spurted. 1t involved little friction, and
no sacrifice. 1t came without any of
the irksome obligations that enlighten-
ed labor creates. The heather were
happy in their comparative prosperity.
But the conditions change. What the
planting interest, and we nearly all
are directly or indirectly interested in
it, regards as comfortable DISPOSE
ton at present of the labor question,
other and stronger interests regard as
hostile and dangerous to the suprem-
acy of Occidental civilization.
These glittering generalities disclose
the nature of the situation, but do not
disclose the remedy. The remedy must
be more and more severe every year.
Perhaps there is no remedy. Perhaps
the Oriental tinge in the blood of the
body polite cannot be removed. One
thing is certain, the more formidable
the obstacles are, the less disposition
there is to tackle them.
Regarding white labor, one of the
serious, but not insurmountable diff
culties in establishing it here under
present conditions, is the unfavorable
environment of the laborers. The Por-
tuguese are not inclined to settle be-
side the people of other races The
small" American farmer has the same
feeling.
One of the chief drawbacks in secur-
ing immigration from the Northern to
the Southern States of America during
the last 80 years, is the reluctance of
the white settler to make a home
among the negroes. They furnish him
no companionship, and directly, or in
directly make the standard of wages,
just as the Asiatics make the real
standard of wages here, in spite of
statements to the contrary. An intelli- |
gent cotton planter said in one of the |
industrial conventions in Atlanta: |
"Raise the price of negro labor and |
you raise the price of white labor"
Once in a while among the many
railway corporations is one, managed |
by strong men, which suspends divid-
ends, in spite of the protests of stock
holders, and invests its surplus in "bet-
terments" Its stock declines in value.
At the end of a few years, it resumes
iivldends, and is ready to face any fin
ancial or industrial panic. But it may
be observed that corporations of this
kind are always managed by "bene-
VIOLENT despots."
These benevolent despots" are very
wicked in theory, but they do much
good in practice.

arily occupy them, without any regard
| to neutrality, and then declare that
the Islands should remain independent,
but subject to the temporary occupa-
ton of the United States forces, when
ever an emergency occurs. 1t would
| impair the force of the annexation
movement to do so. unless it led to
something more permanent. The
President will, undoubtedly. fully con-
slider the bearing of events, as they
happen, upon the plan of annexation.
If he sees in the existing relations, and
contracts between the United States
and Hawaii, any right or authority to
use the Islands, he will do so, if neces-
sary, without reference to our wishes
or hopes in the matter. 1t is not mat
ter of sentiment, but of craftsmanship
and right. He would hardly ask of US
the favor of using the Islands, how
ever willing we are to permit the use,
and desire that he should. In the Gu
ban affair, the President has shown his
strong sense of responsibility, and by
his wise and conservative action, has
secured the solid support of the people,
in spite of the action of Congress. He
will move in our matter with the same
caution in order to avoid charge by
the anti-annexationists, that he is US
ing the war feeling to subdue opposi-
ton in Congress.
If he desires to use our port, in the
present emergency, he will do so, I'M
der some existing right, and will pro-
tect it against Spanish invasion. But,
from the introduction of the joint reso-
luton in the House, it may be infer
red that the instant and open accept
ance of the gift already made is, in his
opinion, the simplest and best course.

The Washington Star of the 26tl
ult., says Hawaii stand upon TIL
same footing with Portugal. TIL,
United States is practically maintain
ing a naval station in Honolulu Two
American warships, the Mohican ant
the Bennington, are located there
making it their base of operations
They have also made it a coaling sta
ton, having now $4,000 tons of coal
located there. If Hawaii is to remain
neutral this coal and the other naval
supplies stored in Honolulu must be-
come unavailable to the United States
and the Bennington and the Mohican
must leave for other waters. If the
United States wishes to retain the ad-
yantages of coaling station at Homo
lulu and to keep a naval reserve in
that port she can do so only by max
ing it American territory. There is
no half way position. 1t must be either
possession or neutrality.
If Hawaii remains neutral, the
United States will lose control of the
only coaling station in the North Paci-
fic; and if she does not remain neu-
trail, she is subject to be treated as an
enemy by Spain, or to a claim for
damages, which she will have neither
the legal nor the physical power to
resist.
This is question which cannot be
postponed. Inaction is positive action
in this case. Failure to declare and
enforce her neutrality constitutes ac-
ton on the part of Hawaii, fixing her
status toward and her liability to
Spain.
"On the other hand, such neutrality
action on the part of Hawaii will de-
priye US of an advantage which we
now have and which we can retain by
saying the word. The United States
must either fish or cut bait. It can no
longer continue the shilly shally
course toward Hawaii which it has
maintained for the past five years.
The evolution of circumstances has
forced upon this country a situation
which makes immediate decision i'm
perative and unavoidable. What shall
the answer be? Do we want Hawaii
or shall we let it go?"

Princeton Inu Again,

Speculation is rife in Presbyterian
circles concerning the probable finding
of the committee intrusted with the
task of conside' ing and acting upon the
resolution concerning the much dis
cussed Princeton Inn question which
was adopted last week by the Temper
ance committee of the Presbyterian
General Assembly. The committee is
expected to submit its report at meet
ing to be held in the Second Presby-
terrain church at Pittsburg this after
noon. During the past few days hum
dreds of letters from all parts of the
country have poured in upon the Tenn
perance committee some of the writer's
commencing it's action, while others
show themselves disposed to censure
the committee for the strong language
in which the resolution was framed.
Strong pressure is being brought to
bear upon the committee looking to
the striking out of several of the claus
es of the resolution before its fusl
adoption, and particularly the direct
charges made against the president
aud faculty of Princeton college hold
ing them responsible for the sale Of
liquors in Princeton Inn.

Bowling Match.

The second game of a series OF
bowling matches, between the Smelter
Bowling club and the American bow
ling club was bowled Monday
night at the alleys of the German club
rooms. Three games were bowled-
one each OF nine pins, ten pins and
cooked hat
The American club won the niue and
ten pin games and were defeated by q
narrow margin of two pins 10 the cock
I'd hat game. The Smelter club put up
. much better game than at the pre-
vious match and when these clubs meet
again the scores are likely to be revers
ed.
Following is the score.

Theatre goers generally are always
glad to hear of the coming OF James A.
Herne. His success as the author and
chief actor of that wonderfully inter-
esting play, ashore Acres" has made
his name a familiar one throughout
this country aud it would be difficult to
decide in what capacity he is most ad-
mired. A fine scenic production of
"Shore Acres,' will be given at the
opera house March IL. No one that has
seen this charming comedy drama, so
thoroughly unconventional, so sweet
and 80 poetic in every detail and that
realizes the high moral lesson it con-
veys marvels at it's ever increasing
popularity. Like RIP Van Wrinkle"
and The Old Hon estead," ashore
Acres" is destined to become an Amer
lean idyl and the Interpretation OF
Nathaniel Berry by its author, will be-
come equally famous.
