VALUE or THE SPANISH ISLANDS

In most discussions regarding the probable
value of the lately Spanish islands to American
commerce false impression is Internationally
given by cons ant and natural reference 10 STA
,iStics OF their past trade. Though no such
thing may be stated or directly implied. the inn
,rcssion is unavodably given 10 most readers
that the traffic which may he reasonably cX-
pcctod is al least 10 some extent measured by
returns Of past commerce. If this were true
the islands would DO Of great value. indeed but
much less valuable than in all probability they
will be- Yet there exists no other record 10
which it is possible 10 refer. and The only basis
of Judging what internal or external traffic may
be expected in the future is the result Of SINH
lar transfers from Spanish authority elsewhere.
TO those who have never realized how industry
and commerce have been suppressed by Span
ish misrulc. or by the scmi-barbnrous rule
which long prevailed in the Hawaiian Islands
and how greatly tho business OF country de-
bends upon certainty Of protection for life and
property in tho future. all past records are
necessarily misleading.
Suppose one had tried to Judge what the bus
ness and productive industry OF California
would become under American government ut
fine tire ii was transferred from Mexican au-
.hority OF necessity any estimate would have
left wholly out of sight the vast development
which followed a. soon rs Americans were free
To explore the country with safety and with
certainty that they would be fully protected in
the results Of their industry and enterprise
Gold had not been unknown to the savages, 10
he Mexicans. nor 10 tho Spaniards during their
occupation of that country but no such explora-
ton was then possible rs was necessary to I'M
cover the vast deposits which have since con-
tributcd so greatly TO the wealth Of this coun-
try. Nor could anybody then have Imagined
the prOduc,iveness in grain and fruits and other
products which has followed American occupa-
ton.
II Is In the strctest sense necessary To any
