HAWAIFS FUTURE.

The future of Hawaii is thus out
lined by sanguine prophet:
Hawaii will get along very well as
a territory. We look for a large in
tluX of American capital, and of Anne
rican immigrants, who will gradually
crowd out the japanese and the Chi
neSe, and thus in time the Islands
will become fitted for statehood. The
descendants of the aborigines appear
to be dociIe race, who will give no
trouble if dealt with justly and hui
namely. Like our own Indians they
seem to fade away in the presence of
civilization. Only the fittest will sur
vive, and these. educated in public
American schools, will make good
American citizens i'm the DAYS TO
come"
The suavity with which this expo
nent bows "a docile race" out of exist
ence is fascinating. We will deal with
the aborigines ''iustly and humanely'
and he will repay our thoughtfulness
by fading away. and leaving the field
unobstructed for the all conquering
Anglo-SaXon. OF course. the fittest
Will survive, but there are not enough
of these to count or to make any
trouble.
We surmise that this program vii,
be carried out in all its essential fea.
lures. Japanese and Chinese will be
crowded out as much as possible. and
the aborigines will die out. Some call
it destiny.-New Bedford Standard.

JUDGE FoRcIgLY ELECTED.
Sequel of III Feeling Between n Ma;is-
frate and Police Officers.

Omaha. Neb., Dec. 2s.-Police Judge
S. I. Gordon was forcibly elected from
the office of the city Jail yesterday by
Acting Captain Hes, while examirg the
jail record relative to the arrest of a
prisoner. The judge had ordered the
release of a prisoner who had been ar
rested for some petty offense. The
prisoner was let go. but was at once
rearrested. There has been ill-feeling
existing between the, police judge and
the officers for some time.
While Judge Gorions was looking over
the records Captain Hes appeared and
said: Judges you have no business be-
hind here. and want you to get out"
This remark was accompanied by en-
phatic action, as the sergeant caught
the book and closed it. Judge Gordon
attempted to jerk it from the officer,
and a struggle ensued. in which his
honor was removed from the office.

ARGUMENT FOR A REDUCTION.
Investment of $I5,OoO.OOO; Dividends on
100000. OOO-Spruce Supply Limited.

1.-THE entire output of this corpora
ton, representing 1.420 tons per day for
theoretical capacity. could be repro
duced by a present investment of SIS
600 900. so that the American consumers
of newspapers are forced to pay divi-
dends upon an inflated and wholly fic-
titious valuation of at least $40. eco coo.
Immediately after the organizat ton of
the trust it raised the price of paper
wherever possible. In three cases it
raised its price SO per ton, and has
averaged an increase of SIS per ton on
its daily output of 1.420 tons, equaling
an increased tax of s., GOO per annum
upon the newspapers of the country,
which now pay n total exceeding $40
600 900 per anrum for their paper sup
ply.
The present consumption of pulp
wood by the pulp and paper mills of the
United States-including manila. book
and writing-is stated at 1000. 900 cords
per annum. which consumption requires
the entire stripping of pulp timber on
625 square miles per annum. Our spruce
wood supply is limited. We therefore
urge that the commission should take
advantage of the present opportunity
and Immediately secure a sufficient SUD-
ply of spruce freed from tariff compIi-
cations The enlightened policy of New
York and other states in protecting for
ests should be encouraged by putting
Canadian pulp and paper on the free
list.
Every increase of a quarter cent per
pound in the price of newspapers adds
