VICTORY AT THE PHILIPPINES.

The latest dispatches show that the
victory OF Commodore, now Rear Ad-
miral Dewey was complete, resulting
in the humiliation of the Spanish fleet
at Manila, and the capture of several
Notifications. The singular absence
of any loss of life on the American
vessels indicates the utter demoraliza-
ton OF the Spanish fleet. Rear Ad-
miral Dewey seems TO have conducted
his operations with great foresight and
skill. In cutting the cable which con-
meets Manila with the world, he has
closed any communications between
the Spanish forces, and the home Gov
eminent, and left them TO work out
their own salvation, if they can do it.
How this sea fight will rank in COM
parison with other great naval battles
remains TO be seen. The small injury
received by the American ships sug-
gests that the American fleet had
walk over, and that its fighting cap
aeity has not been really tested.

of the Pacific on the old footing of bar
barrie and fetish worship.
The public sentiment is now greatly
in favor of the movement towards the
preservation of the old temples, but it
cannot, for some time to come, relieve
itself of the apprehension that these
missionary Senators may be weak and
suddenly revert to the old order of
things, if they are allowed to enter .ne

This case we'll illustrates what IS
called 1.-The point of view" On pre-
cisely the same reasons that suggest
the preservation of heiaus, those liv-
ing hundred years hence, and after

ished its work by the demolition of the
saloon, will apply for an appropriation

spection, some member of the S. S. C.
will read a paper stating that he had
heard his grandfather say that on one
occasion he had seen three reputable
citizens boldly and openly enter one of
these ancient structures, and in def
ance of the laws of hygiene and physio-
logy had taken drink" for such was
the phrase used. And he would add.
with scientific accuracy, that all of
those ancient and nearly forgotten
Saloons" were so saturated with alco-
hol to depth of six or seven feet into
the ground, that the casting of light

in fearful explosions, and confagra-
lions.

Senators are right. At sew

own barbarism, we have no way of |
getting even with PROSPERITY, excepting

THE LABOR QUESTION.

Ugly questions about the labor sun
ply are not confined to our own plan
tiers. One reason for their ugliness i.
that the relations of capital to labor
have, as a rule, been governed by 6
hand to mouth policy. Capital ha:
simply squeezed labor, and labor
when it gets chance. has squeezed
capital. Here and there in the ciyiliz.
ed lands, have been rare men who put
Capital and Labor into harness to-
gether, and made a fine working team
out of them.
The policy of the Pennsylvania coal
and coke men has been that of secur-
ing the cheapest labor to be had. In
this they did as We have done. In
stead of building up on their proper
ties communities of contented families,
they imported the lowest class of Hun
garians and Poles, and established a
tiourishing barbarism in a civilized
State. Now guard is kept over it with
the policeman's club and the bayonet
of the militiaman. In the crude mathe-
MATES of the uneducated iron masters,
cheap and ignorant labor was more
profitable than high priced, but skill
full labor. The latter was never tried.
1t is now generally accepted that the
price of labor is steadily rising in all
countries. Some time ago, we publish
ed the figures showing that within a
few years wages had risen 40 per cent.
in Great Britain; so per cent. and more
in Germany; so to 100 per cent. in
France; and % per cent. within a very
few years in the United States. In
Guiding a longer period, the rise in the
States ranges from so to 200 per cent.
This rise in the rate of wages is very
rapid IN Japan, owing to the industrial
revolution. 1t has not so far serious
ly affected the agricultural Iaborers. all
though it has reached them, through
the rise in the price of food.
The significant phase of this rise is
that it is the highest in connection
with skilled labor. 1t is now conceded
that it is the brain and not the muscle
that determines the value of labor
And the more the industrial situation
is considered, the more apparent it be-

authority from Washington, United
States Consul Dent today chartered the
steamer Adula of the Atlas line to 90

ton was imminent. and spectators

THE ANCIENT TEMPLES.

Time and investigation has removed
much of the prejudice which existed
against the "Heiau and Puuhonuas
Trust" which was recently instigated
by the missionary Senators. No one at
any time questioned the purity of their
motives in the attempt to restore yisi-
BILE heathenism on these Islands, by the
purchase and preservation of the an
Gent interesting but disreputable tenn
pies. But we have it on the authority
of a learned Indian: THAT white man
is mighty unsartain." The conservative,
and conscientious anti-missionary por-
ton of the community felt that these
missionary Senators were unconscious
ly back-sliding into paganism, and un-
der pretense of restoring relics, were
really attempting to put this Paradise

position that Hawaii is a strategic
base, is meaningless to politicians I'M
Ill they look on the map for the point

latter half Of the century. Then |
strategic points have meaning If
there springs up in Congress a senti-
ment that even for the needs of the
present war, if only for its needs dur
ing month, Hawaii may be of real
value, there will be little opposition
TO annexation and the debate will be
short. This aspect of the case de-
ponds wholly on the temper of Con-
gress. We do not know what that is.
But We infer that the joint resolution
has been introduced, under the sudden
conditions which have arisen within
the last few days.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1898-05-17
OUR RELATIONS WITH THE
STATES.

There seems to be an opinion held
here by some people, that Hawaii only
is to be benefited by annexation, and
therefore it is good politics to tender
TO the United States, the use of the
Islands during the existing war.
The question in America is. however
not what may be good for Hawaii, but
what is best for the United States
That involves a question of cool and
sound judgment, and the American
statesmen will settle it. There is moth.
ing for US now to do, but to remain
passive, and do whatever needs to be
done, as the occasion demands.
As a matter of international law.
Hawaii, unfortunately, still remains an
Independent and sovereign State. She
has been laid, as a gift, at the feet of
the American Government, and the &C
ceptance Of this gift has been fervently
urged. But that Government, as a
whole, hesitates to accept the gift,
or recognize the strategic value of it.
As Nation, it can open its thumb and
forefnger and pick up the gift at a
moments notice. 1t permits the indie
pendent sovereignty of the Islands TO
continue.
Our neutrality is entirely in the
hands of that Nation. 1t may termin-
ate it, whenever it chooses TO do so.
As Nation. it will act, in the matter,
not for the benefit of Hawaii, but for
the benefit of its own people
Having placed the Islands at the dis
position Of the American Government,
entirely, and unreservedIy, an ELUSIVE
tender of the Islands to that Govern
ment for strategic purposes, during the
present crisis, is hardly necessary.
There is a touch of the vulgar COM
mercial spirit in it, the spirit of the
dealer in ready made clothing who
says TO his customer: My friend,
you hesitate to take that suit of
clothes? Well, suppose you wear them
until you have made up your mind
about it. !" The dealer is willing enough,
but he does not give his customer
credit for much intelligence.
President Mckinley desires to an
mex these Islands. He does not care to
trifie with or temporarily use them.
The opponents Of annexation might
be only too glad to have him temper

could sweep no such horizon, were faI
away from the swelling tides of men
but predicted that this affair of 80 day!
would enlarge into a terrible affair Of
years.
This incident reveals the strong and
as Herbert Spencer says, the overrul-
ing power of individual sentiment and
temperament in the judgment of af-
fairs, to the large exclusion of reason.
On the other hand, this very states
man had ten years before, on the floor
of the Senate chamber, in a speech on
the efforts to reconcile the relations of
freedom and slavery, suddenly coined
a new phrase, ''the irreconcilable con-
flict" which has taken its place in Am
erican political literature, as the best
and broadcast and profoundest defini-
ton of the perpetual antagonism of
those institutions. Mr.. Seward had
displayed singular intuitive knowledge
of the principles which governed hui
man thought, the permanent struggle
for that which is better. But he had dis
played an equally singular ignorance
in his estimation of the power of ra-
cial feeling, of pride, and local pa
triotism in governing mems thoughts.
Statesman as he was, there was many
a cotton broker uneducated in the
books or in life, who was wiser than
he, and could have told him that he
failed to see the meaning and signifc
ance of one of the greatest, most pa
thetic, and most disasterous move
ments of the century.

PROPHESY.

Sir William Howard Russell, the IA
nous war correspondent of the Lon
don Times, is now publishing the pri-
vate memoranda which he made dur
ing the American Civil war. Owing to
a just, but not very favorable criticism,
of the Federal forces at the battle of
Bull Run, he was spoken of for some
years in the Republican papers, as
Bull Run Russell"
In his memoirs he refers in 1861, to
the determination of the Southern
men to fight, and he was admitted
through the lines to see their prepara-
tons. He then makes this note:
What will Mr.. Seward say? He has
been ding-donging into my ears that
the Southern States are not really
anti-Northern. Only a set of noisy
factious slave owners in each State
were in secession, the majority were
sound for the glorous Union"
'The prediction of Mr.. Seward that
the Civil war would last only 80 days,
is gradually passing into American
literature as an illustration of the
weakness of mans gift for prophecy.
An educated man, politician of wide
experience, a student of human affairs,
occupying a high place at the seat of
Government that enabled him to sweep
wide horizon. he summed up the
movement of events as a war affair
which would last only 80 days.
And yet, in many. a city and village
were living quiet, unknown men, who
