REDUCTION OF INTEREST.

The question of how TO get a part
AZ the surplus into circulation was dis
cussed in yesterdays Advertiser by
financial experts. some Of whom pro-
posed. as a means Of partial relief. that
the interest rate OF the Postal Savings
Rank should be cut down from AZ per
cent to 3 or 3i4 per cent. The argu-
ment was that this move would induce
Withdrawals from the Postal Savings
Bank and therefore from the Treasury
surplus and that deposits would cease.
In consequence the funds now put in
the keeping of the Government would
find their way to the private banks
which would loan them out to the peo-
pie. As the deposits of the government
hank approximate half the surplus,
amounting on Dec. 81, 1898. to $942.-
26S.4l. It. is easy to see that the course
proposed would go long way TO re-
l.eve the financial situation.
Ordinarily in debating such plan
the Advertiser would first take into
account the welfare of the depositors
The principle of the greatest good
to the greatest number would. in that
case. have to be invoked. But we
are face TO face with the fact that, as
soon as annexation is perfected. the
Postal Savings Bank will have 10 go.
There is no place for such an institu-
ton under the United States postal
laws. That being true there would be
but a trifling advantage in keeping up
the interest rate and one in no way
commensurate with the advantage in
putting 1t down. Seeing that the Bank
cannot live long why let it contract the
circulating medium and stand in the
way of productive enterprises which
might employ labor, while II does live?
This is a view expressed not only
by the bankers and financial experts
but by President Dole. The argument,
far-reaching as 1t is. goes still further.
When the Postal Bank was organized
the Government needed money and
looked TO the depositors for 1t. With
out such aid taxation might have had
to be dangerously increased. Now,
under the changed conditions of pros
perity, the Government has more
money than II knows what to do with
and every deposit made in the Postal
bank increases it's embarrassments.
Why should the Government borrow
when its Golfers are fun and running
over?
Reduction OF the interes, rate is no
new thing. The policy has been car
ried out before in Hawaii and can be
lawfully resorted TO again. We are
impelled to agree with the view that
the time has come for further action
OF this kind and that the general well
fare OF Hawaii win be conserved by
gradual preparation for the day, not
far in future, when the Savings De-
partment of the Government will have
to be wound up altogether.

ground was wet, and the Japanese's

amongst the Japanese that night, and
the next day the luna was arrested for
assault, but the case was withdrawn,
there being no evidence against him.
The japanese now talks of suing the
luna for damages.

Cheering news for Democrats comes
