It will be seen from the above that
the crop was far superior, nearly one
half as large again, upon the old plot,
and the inference to be drawn from
this is that beans do not. by continuous
cropping, render the soil in any way
unfavorable for the growth of beans, at
least not within four years under the
conditions Of this experiment. The root
system of the plants growing upon the
old ground invariably had their roots
more or less abundantly supplied with
the tubercles, except in one small area.
These tubercles are usually spherical,
varying in size from mere specks to
those of quarter of an inch in diame-

HAMPERING THE GOVERNOR.

In the debate on the Hawaiian Ter
ritorial bill now before the Senate, an
attempt was made to strike out the
provision giving power TO the Cover
nor TO appoint territorial officers, but
IL was not successful.
The Commissioners in reviewing the
situation here, and now the Senators,
see the necessity of a strong execu-
tive here. OF course this is not the
doctrine of popular sovereignty, but it
is the lesson of century of expert
ence. IL the people are not to have it
all their own way, then give the one
who is to govern them some power to
keep them in line.
President Dole's theory of surround
ing the Governor with advisers is one
that experience condemns. Unless
executive power is concentrated in one
person, it is a miserable, hating
affair. Share responsibility between
men and in a crisis, the first thing
they do is to get between each others
legs" and make confusion. President
Dole's theory of protecting the people
against executive wickedness was that
of the French doctrinaires in 1892
who divided the power between several
cOnsuls. Bonaparte came along and
went through it like a foot ball wedge.
There has not been a large charita-
BILE, or educational, or business insti-
tuition that has made any marked sue
cess until it has kicked out President
Dole's theory of distributing the exc
cutive power. The ruin of scores of
railway corporations is simply due to
this theory OF guarding the executive
power. No one man masters the stu
alton, if he is at the mercy of several
other men who have not mastered it.
After all the conduct of government
is controlled by public opinion, ire
spective of laws. Bad laws and an in
efficient or corrupt executive are due
to the Indifference or selfishness of the
public. The most elaborate system of
safeguards in public or private con-
Germs are rubbish unless there is a
sentiment that enforces them.
The problems to be solved in these
Islands are moral and not legal. An
executive is needed here who will do
more than merely execute laws,-one
who has the gift and purpose of fusing
in harmony the lives of this mixed pop
ulation. This is, however, a merely
ideal speculation. The actual eXecu-
tive will be, sooner or later, one who
is in touch with the people, even if he
stoops very low TO make the touch
and keep it.
President DOle's theory of limiting
the executive power has been tried by
several cities of the Mainland, and in
every case, if we recollect rightly, has
proved a failure.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-12-31

do not treat the question OF expansion
as a serious one. That is 10 some ex-
tent, a correct comment. Men become
serious only when really confronted
with difficulties. whipping a fifth rate
power like SPAIN" as Admiral Miller
says, is not a serious business. The
really serious side of the case will
appear when the business side of il
appears, and the illusions are dispeII-
ed, whatever they may be-
One thing is certain. The ratifica-
ton Of the treaty will end the unwise
rule of Spain over some millions of
human beings. That is the great event
of the year. 1t is TO the credit of the
AnglO-SaXOn race, and the American
branch of it especially, that it has
been done. It may be even true that
Spain governed these many islands bet
ter than they could govern themselves.
She maintained some kind of civil or
der. But the hour came, in the evolu-
ton OF the worlds peoples, for her 10
retire, because in some way, better
rule could be established over them.
And so she now retires in this year

THE CROWN LANDS.

There will be in all probability, some
settlement by Congress of the claim of
LiIiuokalani upon the crown lands. 1t
may be a generous one The assets
of these Islands received by the Unit
ed States are large, and there will be
little disposition in Congress to be
mean about the terms of settlement.
While Congress will not for an in
slant disapprove of the overthrow of
the Monarchy, and will technically
hold that the crown lands belong to
the Government, it will be disposed to
regard the ex-Queen as a woman who
did not understand the situation, and
sinned in ignorance. Moreover, when
ever the matter is thought on, there
will be a sentiment that anyone who
stands up for his rights is entitled
TO respect even if he is in the wrong.
Any Anglo-SaXon with the legal rights
and privileges possessed by the eX-
Queen on January LIST, 1898, would
have made stout fight to maintain
them. This is the view that the majo-
rity of men in Congress will take OF
the matter. Aside from this, a failure
to settle the claim might involve the
right to the crown lands in protracted
litigation, and keep many of the sugar
enterprises in allegiance until the
Supreme Court at Washington passed
upon the right.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-12-31
THE SPANISH TREATY.

The Senate will ratify the Paris
treaty made between the United States
and Spain. The ratification Of it will
not indicate what the policy will be
regarding the disposition of the con-
quered territory. When baby is left
on the door step Of a respectable fam
lily at midnight, the first act on dis
covering it is to take it in, and keep
it warm The disposition Of the in
FAINT is a matter for subsequent con-
sheraton The Senators who are OPP
posed to expansion see the pressing
necessity of closing out relations with
Spain. a refusal to ratify the treaty
would create widespread confusion,
and establish anarchy in the conquer
ed lands. Even Senator Hoar will
vote for ratification, because it is the
wisdom of the hour to do so. He with
other anti-expansionists will treat the
case as it comes before them, dealing
only with accomplished facts.

Admiral Dewey says the Fflipinos

It comes from Tacoma that the
steamships City of Columbia and Cen
tennial are to be withdrawn" from
the Honolulu trade because there are
no return cargoes." The Columbia
could carry back pretty good load Of
claims if she was made seawOrthy and
released by libellants.
1t may easily be accepted that the
reports of marked disorder at the CEN
tiers Of population in the new posses
sions" are greatly exaggerated. It will
be recalled that in 1898, for instance,
most disquieting reports of affairs were
sent from Honolulu when, as a matter
of fact, the town was tranquil.
The sister of Gen. Gordon objects
that Gen. Sir Herbert Kitchener wishes

Reports have been received here from

there are people here who protest
