A COMMERCIAL BATTLE.

Congress, in order to pay off the
British and Canadians for refus-
ing to aid in preventing pelagic
seal hunting, has just passed a
law forbidding the Importation of
seal skins into the United States.
Experience teaches what the re-
suit will be. The women of the
United States will insist on hav-
ing seal skins. The price will rise.
The smugglers will do a magni-
ficent business.
American citizens will have to
pay extravagant prices. The
smugglers will get rich. The seal
skins will filter through 5000
miles of border. IF the Boring
Sea skins cannot be distinguished
from the Russian or the Japanese
skins, there will be an immense in
crease in the importation from
those countries. If the law stands
there is no reason why sealers
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-01-28

from Hawaii should not try the
business.
The situation is, that the Amer
lean woman will pay the fines"
for British obstinacy.
The purpose of the law is to
force the British to terms. If the
smugglers carry the goods
through in sufficient quantities,
the British will ask for no terms.
If smuggling is prevented, the
British merchants will demand
that Canada come to an under
standing with the United States.

rare chance for deserving" SNUG
glerS to do a fine trade. In an
Gent times there would have been
war over pelagic sealing. In mo-
dern times the nations play points
on each other, and don't pull out
the big bowie knives they keep in
their boot legs.

SOME NEW FACTS.

Inc JOuEHdl VI SOLIhICAN N
IN. ", in its carefully thought
out article on the annexation OF
these Islands, from which we
quoted the other day, gives its
readers some important facts
to think about, which have not
been before presented.
1t states that the relations OF
the worlds commerce are chang
inc and must seriously affect
the United States. The pOpu-
lation of the States is increas-
ing u millions each year. The
mining and manufacturing in
dustries are drifting towards
vast expansion. Within 10
years past, more than 10 mil
lions of new producers have
had to depend for their earn
ings upon resources outside OF
planting and farming, and the
number is increasing. In 10
wears there will be 100 millions
of people. There will be 90
millions of them dependent on
non agricultural industries.
The grain production of other
countries will drive many more
to the manufacturing indus
tries. The rapid progress to-
wards these events is as yet
hardly noticed. The national
necessities will be imperative.
Foreign outlets must be secur-
ed. There must be access to
the 400 millions of Chinese. No
European powers can be allow
ed to stand in the way, or ham
per the expansion of American
commerce. Therefore the an
nexation of Hawaii is a neces
sity.
One asks why the shrewd
Americans have not realized
the situation before this time.
The truth is that the vast body
of intelligent merchants do not
realize it vet. The expansion
of trade has not been a pres
sing necessity, and men do not
go about looking up problems
that do not touch their pockets.
The average man does not care
to increase his load. He does
not take care of his health until
he begins to lost it. He does
not raise his umbrella until the
rain falls.
Many of the Americans be
gin to realize that in the strug
gle for trade, Europe may,
without threa1 of war towards
America, close up the opening
for her possible trade. AS the
American looks westward, Ha-
wall lies across the line of Wis
ion.
Every merchant, whose
goods are a glut upon the home
market becomes interested,
when the prospect of a foreign
market is open to him. He rails
es his eyes and looks, then he
sees, then he acts. How rapidly
he moves we do not know. We
shall hear about it shortly.
