REAL VALUES.

Several years ago a sample of tea
grown on these Islands, was submitted
to experienced" persons in this city,
who after due consideration, valued it
at about go cents per pound, and this
valuation was accepted as final and re-
liable. We sent a sample of this tea to
one of the leading tea tasters" of New
York City, one of those persons upon
whose judgment valuable cargoes of
teas are priced and sold. He was asked
to make thorough test. He replied
and was corroborated by his associate,
that the value of the tea was about Is
cents per pound.
Itwas repeatedly said in the California
paper, several years since, that tobac-
co grown in the State was fully equal
to that grown in Cuba. OF course men
began to dabble in tobacco culture for
good Havana ''fillers" are worth 81 per
pound. Some of this tobacco equal to
the best Havana" was secured, sent to
reliable expert and tobacco broker,
and was valued at 25 cents per pound.
The average man who undertakes a
new project likes to be told something
pleasant about it, and hates the max
ed'' truth, just as DR.. Bishop hates a
naked" picture. But the day of reck-
oning comes at last. Nature demands
a square deal. Even our valuable and
progressive fellow citizen, Mr. Marsden
got a little off, on the canaigre bust
ness, just as we all frequently get "off"
because we dislike to search out and
stand before that most disagreeable
monster 'cold fact"

SUSPENDING SENTENCE.

If any of the Senators are in doubt
about the wisdom of the proposed law
giving magistrates the right to sus-
pend sentences in certain cases. a very
brief examination of the reports of the
Prison Reform Societies will remove
the doubt. The power to suspend is
one Of the best methods of controlling
depraved young men and women.
While the power has been abused to a
very limited extent by some corrupt
magistrate, it has proved to be an ex-
cellent educational process.
In the large cities where youn men
become incorrigible, it not unfre-
quently happens that parents make
complaint to the magistrate where
their children have committed petty
crimes, and on conviction the sentence
is suspended. The result is that the
child lives in fear of Imprisonment,
and behaves properly. In the large
cities this may be done without pub
licity. Some years ago a millionaire
had his own son arrested and convicted
of the offense of drunkenness and
brawling. The sentence was suspended.
The son could defy his parents, but
feared to tussle with the police judge.
Those who have questioned the wis
dom of enacting this bill, seem to be
lamentably ignorant of the very large
amount of literature on the subject to
be found in civilized countries. They
might as well bring in bill to forbid
the exercise of the pardoning power
by the Executive.
The doubt about the wisdom of the
law, as exhibited in the debate of the
House, is similar to the doubt existing
with the boys debating society of
Timbuctoo, when they discussed the
question, do the Europeans wear
clothes, and if so, for what purpose?"

and the Lord will meet you this even
ing at Z o'clock"
The Anglican Church, one of the
grandest institutions on earth, for the
welfare of men, rich in its inspiring
ritual, powerful in its far-reaching
work, has only met with misfortune in
these Islands. 1t has now a precarious
and stunted growth. and yearly dwind-
les under whitening touch. Its con-
dition here is a scandal to the great
Church itself
Bishop Willis, of course, feels that he
has been wronged in all sorts of ways,
since he was mysteriously guided TO a
residence here. Let him show forgive
ness to all, including the Almighty, for
what they have done. Better still.
Shake Hawaiian dust from his feet.

THE MISSION CHURCH.

The controversy between Bishop
Willis, and those who have erected the
Mission chapel near Punahou, need not
be stated at length. 1t turns mainly
on who should hold title to the prop
erty. Broadly stated it may be sum-
med up in the proposition that if the
Bishop is not permitted to run the
business of the new Mission church,
he will block it.
He gives his reasons for refusing to
recognize it, but he who runs may cas-
lily read between his lines, that it is
with him purposely or not, rule or ruin.
We do not belong to the Anglican
Church. We have no prejudices what
ever regarding the two wings of the
church. We simply regard it as val
liable factor in good civilization, and
look upon the controversy from an i'm
partial standpoint.
The Mission building has been erect
ed through the earnest labors of Canon
Osborne and of members and strong
friends of the Anglican Church. 1t is
finished. The Bishop refuses to recog-
nize it. He makes no charge that
heresy will be preached in it, or that its
officials are disqualified But he stands
on a trivial point of ecclesiastical
law, namely that the title to the prop
erty is not where he wants it, though
it is in the names of members of the
Anglican Church. Now instead of clear
ing up this trivial dispute, by asking
several intelligent men to act as arbi-
traitors, or by speedily sending to the
authorities of the church in England
for advice, he stands before the door of
the little church, brandishes his ugly
sword of prerogative, and permits no
one to enter it for worship. The sheep
cannot enter the fold and must be left
to the wolves, because he will not let
them in. His prerogatives as Bishop are
of more value to him than the saving
of souls. He feels as important as the
Arkansas preacher who gave notice to
his congregation in the morning. me

WIDE TIRES.

Anyone who will look into the mat
ter carefully will see great merit in
Senator McCandless' bill providing for
the use of wide tires. Those who are
interested in the preservation Of good
roads see in the use of these tires, one
of the best means of securing that pre-
servation.
The extreme conservatism of the "a
cial habit of thought has prevented
the adoption of this improvement in
civilized countries, in spite of the
prompt admission of its great value
by every person who has taken the
trouble to examine it. If the Senator
succeeds in securing the enactment of
his proposed law, he will have done
the Islands most substantial service.
Moreover, he will have shown an ex-
cellent example of what energy can do
in accomplishing results. The advo-
Gates of good roads elsewhere, have
not been fortunate. Vested interests.
and Indifference are the lions in the

THE PARTY AND THE GOVERN.
MENT.

The rumor that the dominant party
intends to force change in the Cabi-
net is not correct, if our information
is accurate. The attitude of several
members of that party in the Legisla-
ture naturally breeds such a rumor, as
there is marked display of hostile
spirit towards the Attorney General at
least. We do not believe that there is
yet any settled plan of attack on the
Cabinet.
Appearances are misleading. The
American element of the community
expects that proceedings in the Legis-
lature here will be conducted as they
are in the As Legislative bodies of the
American States, and in the American
Congress.
The universal rule in all those bodies
is for the members of party to stand
by the Government it has put into pow
er. This rule is carried so far that even
just CRITICISM OF public Oft1cialS is strict
ly taboo. Gross frauds committed by
officials who are members of the party
are concealed. If sensitive and highly
conscientious members of the party are
aware of wrong doings, they investi-
gate the matter privately, and if there
is error, correct it behind the door, in
stead Of bobbing up in public and ex-
posing the party weakness. All dirty
linen is washed strictly in private.
excepting by the ignorant or the ire
pressibles who lost their tempers. The
first and most important rule in prac,
teal politics, is to present solid front
to your opponents.
The fact that members of the domi-

But" says the Post, ''let anyone tram.
pie on their commercial corns, as some
nation is sure to trample on American
commerce in the Pacific, and these in
dolent gentlemen of the Commercial
Club will resent it with vengeance
that the intruder will never forget"
If these men were British merchants
excuse us for abiding to such grasp
ing shop keepers, sending as they do
their goods to all parts of the world,
they would have insisted on annexa-
ton, in the interests of trade. These
Chicago merchants, representing some
hundred of millions of dollars, do not
yet feel keenly the need of foreign
trade and therefore do not feel the need
of out posts. These men feel about an
neXation just as we feel about japanese
immigration; so long as there is profit
in things as they are, why take any
new departures? These men represent
the conservatism of wealth. Against
them are the men who take larger
views, and are convinced that it is the
wisdom of the hour to annex Hawaii.
Regarding the taking of the vote OF
the club after a hearty dinner, it re-
calls the anecdote told in the last At
lantic by Colonel Higginson, of his ex-
perience in the Massachusetts Legisla-
ture. He was speaking in favor of the
oleomargarine bill, and remarked that
a gentleman in New York City had put
the very best butter and the best oleo-
margarine on his lunch table as an ex-
pertinent, and that his guests had pre-
ferred the oleomargarine. The House
was struck with the force of this fact,
when member rose and asked: "Will
the gentleman kindly inform us at
what precise stage of the lunch this
test was applied?' His bill was de-
feated.
The question now is, as Judge Tree
at what stage of the dinner
was the vote of the Commercial Club
taken.

NOTES ON INDIANS.

At the Hampton Normal and Agri-
cultural School, of Virginia, the Indian
boys recently debated the question
whether or not they could conscien-
tiously thank Christopher Columbus
for discovering them.
Some years ago, the boys of district
school in New Jersey, read compost
tions on Christopher Columbus. One of
these read: THE Indians lived in hap
piness in America One of them said
one day, shall we ever be discovered? p
They went to the shore one day and
saw something in the water coming
towards them. They watched until it
came near. 1t was ship. Then they
all rose up and exclaimed, 1T is Chris

An Indian boy in the Hampton school
was recently told to write a brief essay

MR.. DAVIES APPEAL,

Time enough has passed since Mr.. T.
H. Davies issued his appeal to the ma
tives, in behalf of harmony, unity and
political cooperation with the whites,
for some response. At least there
should be a sufficient response from
which to gather the trend of the native
mind.
We have taken the trouble to make
many inquiries regarding the character
of any response, but so far, it does not
seem to be all favorable to Mr.. Davies
hopes. We do not as yet speak posi-
lively on the subject, because in fair
ness to Mr.. Davies, abundant time
should be allowed for the slow action
Of the native mind.
From the data we have, our opinion
is that the natives, instead of regard
ing Mr.. Davies as their honest and true
friend, look upon him as deserter, a
traitor to the cause"

well, if he could keep the natives in
permanent line for good government.
We are sure that no honest and careful
reader of the various histories of poll
| tical growths, would expect for a mo-
ment that he can. 1t would be just as
easy for an American statesman, who
believes in the separation of Church
and State, to convince the mass of Eng
lishmen that they ought to discover the
Church from the State, as it would be
for Mr.. Davies to convince the natives
that they are wrong in their political
feelings. We do not say that the ma
tives have any strong political feelings.
The astonishing fact, revealed by the
Queens book, that, since the over
throw, they have not given one dollar
to aid in the recovery of their rights"
indicates its real strength.
But behind that is the racial feeling
of suspicion of the white The great
majority of natives, unfortunately,
thriftless in their ways, attribute their
lack of prosperity to the grasping and
selfish conduct of the whites, including
Mr.. Davies. Nothing pleases thrift
less person, all over the world, so much
as to be told that his misfortune in not
due to his own failures, but to the in.
justice of others. The wicked white
man has told the native for many years
that the missionary robbed him, and
that Mr.. Davies, who is prosperous
man, has also robbed him. Any as
sertion to the contrary, he does not be-
lieve. This is a solid political fact.
The men who will "play" the native
for his vote, will always put this fact
before him, and then promise ito see
justice done to him." And the native
will be played" and then be left out
in the cold.
If further responses from the natives
confirm those now received, we shall
regard Mr.. Davies appeal as a most in
teresting and valuable lesson in poll
teal literature.
We wish Mr.. Davies a pleasant voy-
age And we hope that he will find
time to consult some of those able

Honest and intelligent members of
the Legislature naturally require very
many expectations from the Admins
tration regarding its proceedings.
Friends of the Government will quietly
seek the departments and obtain full
explanations in business like way.
If they finally discover that wrong has
been done, they should then, from the
Mugwump point of view, rise up in
public, point the finger of scorn at the
Government, and refuse to be bound by
party ties. If governed by the general
political rule, they will stand by the
party and say nothing.
The conduct of several members of
the dominant party justifies the belief,
that they are Gripping the Government
of their and our, own creation. They
seem to be quite too willing to gloat
over what they think are rotten"
spots in the record.
In taking this course, they refuse to
follow the example of party men else
where, and they may be morally right
about it. 1t is not good politics" how
ever.
1t is said that white men cannot work
in the tropics. Perhaps it may be as
equally true that white men can't leg
