HAWAIIAN COMMERCE.
It Has mad Its Development Under Pro-
tective system.

The Hawaiian islands are an ex-
ample Of commercial development un-
der a close or protected system. Il,
was ia 1866 that the islands first
touched an Interest of 81, 000,0 in our
import trade, chiefly through the whale
fisheries, as they made a convenient
stopping place for American whalers.
The interest was not doubled until the
reciprocity treaty went into effect
QS7D, and sugar became the great ar
ticle OF commerce, with rice as the sec
ond in importance, but representing
only one-tenth the value OF sugar. The
granting Of free entry into the United
States for these two products was
equivalent to remitting TO the Ha-
waiian planters the sum of 81 600. 00c
a year. every Collar Of which acted as
a bounty on production. It was nat
ural to find that 90 liberal gift was
soon appreciated. and the energies Of
the islands were directed into layins
out plantations of sugar and rice. A
rice proved of uncertain profit, the

tlon increased through the influx o.
Asiatics- The exports of this grain
were 2.25O.000 pounds in 1876. attained
a maximum OF 1s.6s4.2OO pounds in
1887. and are now about $4,000
pounds year Very different was the
course Of sugar. for which the only
market was the United States. Be

The eastern press does not dare
discuss Bryan, except in attempts
to belittle him. Did they report
his speeches, or his public acts
they would elect him sure. Every
possible item in relation to the
success of his work is arbitrarily
suppressed. The subsidized asso-
ciated press is also in league with
the attempt to suppress all news OF
the great commoner. In the west
every act Of the administration is
thoroughly exploited and the peo-
pie are left to judge Of their merits.
Could this publicity be given
Bryan in the eastern press, we
would be willing to stake our life
on the outcome, which would be
Bryan's overwhelming election.

Its regard, however, for the
euphony of the title, if not for the
fact that the Examiner with small
coterie only, represents the begins

deter it from creating an impress
sion that the "Silver San Juan" is
untrue to binetallism; untrue to its

pie of that God favored country

their professions for silver. 1t is
true beyond doubt that they are

The article by Mr.. Charlton on
prosperity lines, in yesterdays is
sue was we'll timed. Some Of his
argument may be false, yet it is
largely true. 1t is beyond the
question Of even debate that, this
local warefare must cease. 1t may
not be true that an absolute guar
antee of an heyday prosperity will
come by purchasing the water
works at the price agreed upon two
years ago, or at sum approximate
ing within that amount, or at any
sum, but it is pretty generally con-
ceded that settlement by purchase
will go long way in that direction.
Under any circumstances it is true
our people must stop playing boy"
and do business like men Again the
city is entirely too young to go
into the boo1le game. the hope OF
securing which, upon the part Of
some few people we unhesitatlngly
declare has kept back a settlement
Of this detestible water question for
many years past There is cons
suming anxiety upon friend and
foe to see an adjustment of the
fight and the leaders of both sides
should take counsel to themselves
that in order to gain tranquility,
this people will before long take
the question entirely away from
any leadership and settle the mat
ter solely upon the basis of secur-
ing a continuous rest upon the
question and in favor of no partic
ular side.

The republican party wrestles
with itself every day over the de-
lusion, that it has killed Bryan and
bimetallism. One day it believes
it has and the next, great uncer-

essary for the party to lie to itself,
every day the evidence grows more
strongly that it will be better

Victor Last night was an exciting

that this step was wise ono. People

attempted.
There was an unusual number of
drunken men in the city notwithstand-
the police had closed all the remaining
saloons. Many of these were placed
under arrest and spent the night in the
G. A. Il. hall.
Three men were arrested on the charge
OF stealing keg OF whisky.
All night long people kept entering
the city and leaving for other towns Of
the district. Everyone entering or
leaving Victor was examined by the
armed guard placed at every street for
this purpose.
