Our independent" planters have
returned to the Spreckels fold again.
They have once more enjoyed their
favorite pastime of kicking against
the Sugar King, and he has, as
usual, smiled serenely and awaited
the inevitable. The independent"
planters built a refinery that was
supposed to ruin Spreckels and the
big Trust. The refinery has OPT rated
during one year, and our ''independ-
emit" planters have been obliged to
sell their surplus sugar to Spreckels,
and yesterday they met to consider
whether it wouldn't be wise to drop
the new refinery and try to get a
contract with the old despised Su-
gar King, who has so frequently
taken them by their saccharine
hands and lifted them out of the
molasses Of stupidity. Don't try the
game too often, Messrs, "Independ-
emit" Planters.

TOPICS OF The DAY.

The taxpayers want to know why
the Interior Department is making
such strenuous efforts to have the
new Manoa road completed, while
other parts of the city are being
neglected as far as roads are con-
cerned. The people in Kalihi valley
are entitled to a road but nothing
is done and the few repairs made
have simply made the road nearly
impossible. Manoa valley seems to
be under the special patronage OF
the Government since Minister
Cooper bought lands there. 1t is
not bad to be a Cabinet Minister If
roads and water works are construct
ed for the sole purpose OF increasing
the value OF the ministerial property.

of Public Works, Mr.. Rowell. The
Executive, nevertheless not alone
retains the man in Office but calls him

alone daily shows its contempt for
public opinion, it also slaps the
Legislative body in the face with a
great deal of gusto. "What are you

more roads and lays more water

SANE DEMAND 70 Be MADE
Spain Gains Nothing by Refusing
Americas Peace Proposal.
INSTRUCTIONS SENT TO PARIS
In Answering the spaniards Claimed
Even Indemnity for Our Ca pturs of
termined Than Ever.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 5.-Spain's TX.
haustive argument against the cession
OF tho Philippines to tho United States
has had the result Of making the Of.
fcials all the more determined to take
the islands. Instructions sent to Mr..
Day will require him and his coll
leagues to renew tomorrow their de-
mapd for concession o. the group to
the United States. and they will make
in their communication the first offer
of money In payment Of the islands.
Secretary Hay has received a full
statement Of tho contents OF the Span
ish note. It's character was just what
tho officials experimentation any
new arguments OF Importance. Senior
Rios and his colleagues call attention
to tho action Of the government In de-
livering n note through NJ. Cambon,
the French ambassador, to President
Mckinley which set forth the under
standing OF tho Spanish government
that In agreeing to tho protocol its
sovereignty over the Philippines would
moi be affected. 1t Is also claimed by
tho Spanish commissioners that this
declaration was assented to by Prcsi-
dent Mckinley. As a matter of fact,
the note had been delivered, but the
President had declined to answer it,
either In writing or verbally, to NJ.
Cambon.
Tho Spanish commissioners have
declared, 1t is said, that instead OF the
United States acquiring the Philip
pines, this government should pay
their government an indemnity for the
attack on Manila after the peace pro
tocol had been signed and for tho
damage consequently done.
Rear Admiral Dewey's victory In
Manila bay was unimportsnt and the
possession OF Cavito during the war
was not such as to give the Americans,
the Spaniards declare. control Of the
islands, and 1t is claimed, and the
claim is fortified by argument and
many legal p~recedents. that the Amor.
lean government has no moral right to
demand the cession Of the entire group
OF l,40O islands when it hold only such
a small bit OF territory as that at Cav.
lite. and controlled only tho bay OF
Manila.
All during tho war Spanish troops
wero stationed on other islands and
were not molestcd. The Spaniards
indicated their willingness, however,
to sell the islands, and tho authorities
have no apprehension now that any
rupture will occur unless it be over
tho mount to bo paid.
After the Philippine question shall
have been disposed of the commission.
ers will consider the determination O,
claims which have been fled by Amer
leans against Spain and by Spaniards
against the United States It Il
thought that this government would
bind itself to satisfy American claims
in consideration of the territory ccdet
to the United states, but this state
ment 10 incorrect. The Spanish com,
missioners have n heavy claim for hli
clustering against the United States Il
Offset claims fled by Americans for per
sonal and property injuries, and tn,
question of their disposition viii hav,
to be decided.
