Dingley bill may be too high, but
that has nothing to do with the an
nexation OF Hawaii. There is involved
a large sugar interest, but it is re-
presented by the island planters,
who fear the impermanence OF the
reciprocity treaty and who seek
therefore to secure the benefit OF $40
a ton protection on their raw sugar
by annexation. The interest an
tagonistic to them is represented by
the American producers Of raw cane
and beet sugars, who have to pay
their labor the white scale of wages,
while the Hawaiian planters pay the
yellow scale of wages. To the
Hawaiian planter, with cheap labor,
protection of $40 ton means S39,
because his labor cost Of production
only half the cost to the American
planter,
The sweetening in the annexation
issue is exclusively at the Hawaiian
end OF it, and the attempt is to lure
American planters and American
labor by an appeal to prejudice

New York, June 1.-THE herald's
Washington correspondent tele-
graphs:
Rear-Admiral Miller, commander
in-chief OF the Pacific station, will
hoist the American flag over the
Hawaiian Islands as soon as Con-
gress ratifies the resolution of an
nexation which is now being dis
cussed in the House of Representa-
tives. AS soon as the cruiser Phila-
delphia is placed in commission, on
July l, she will become the flagship
of the Pacific squadron and will sail
for Honolulu. | understand that
the administration is determined to
send modern man-of-war to Homo
lulu and that the Mohican will be
sent to the far East to cruise among
the Spanish possessions which are
not yet under control of Rear
Admiral Dewey and seize them in
the name of the United States.
Secretary Long was consulted by
Captain Crowinshield during the

Island Navy Yard, and Captain Silas

ship Franklin.

Annexation and the Sugar Trust.

The Post says that sHhe sugar
trust desires cheap raw sugar II
Place the Hawaiian Islands in the
same relation to the United States
as other foreign countries and the
raw sugar product OF the islands
would contribute to cheaper the
raw material, but by reason Of the
500 per ton protection would not
endanger the domestic price of the
refined article. For this reason the
sugar trust opposes annexation Of
the islands,"
This is in answer to our request
for statement of any reason for
the declaration that the sugar trust
opposes annexation.
Hawaiian raw sugar now comes
to this country free of duty, under
reciprocity treaty. If the islands
were placed in the same relation to
us as other countries, then raw su-
gar would pay duty of $40 per ton.
Perhaps the Post can tell how this
increase in it's cost would make it
cheaper to the sugar trust
That association of rsfners gets it
now free of duty. If the islands are
annexed it will still be free Of duty.
If the reciprocity treaty is abrogated
it will cost $40 a ton more than
now 1t is true that annexation of
the islands would abolish the $3.50 per
ton differential duty on refined su-
gar, which would mean only the
transfer by the sugar trust of the
business of refining to the islands,
provided the much cheaper labor
there would offset increased cost of
fuel and other incidents of the re-
fning business,
1t will be seen that the sugar trust,
then, has no interest against annex :
alton, and would probably be more
helped than hurt by it.
The Posts article is really an
argument against the differential
duty on sugar. 1t is intended to
show that the duty of $40 per ton
on raw sugar is not enough protec-
ton to American raw cane and beet
sugars, while $3.50 per ton on refined
sugar is too much protection. That
is legitimate and proper subject
of discussion, The Democratic Will
son tariff OF 1894 gave differential
of 40 per cent ad valorem and one
eighth OF cent pound in favor
of refined sugar. The real sum OF
the difforential was the difference
between that and the 40 percent ad
valorem placed on raw sugar The
differsntial in the Wilson bill may

the words OF an Ex-Governor of
California, Senator Perkins, himself
an annexationists "lest we forget"
the slip betwixt the cup and the lip:
SO much opposition is disclosed
and so much apprehension exists as
to the danger OF departure from
long-recognized principles Of ma
tional policy that | am convinced
that annexation is dead for this ses-
sion and perhaps for all time.
