NOT ALTOGETHER WRONG.
Hawaii Herald.)

.(Hawaii Herald.
Some of the merchants in Ho--
nolulu have seemingly taken Of
fense at Mr.. Sewall for having
written letter to Washington
asking for the prompt enforce
ment of United States tariff laws
here owing to a scheme of "some
business men to transship goods
of European manufacture to the
United States and thus realize an
extra profit on account of the diff
ference in the tariff" Mr.. Sewall
was not altogether wrong in his
statement, though the intention to
take advantage of the tariff may
not have been on the part of white
merchants. More than year ago
an exceptionally bright Japanese,a
merchant in Honolulu disclosed to
the writer just such a scheme and
be afterward went to japan for
the purpose of buying goods to be
taken from Hawaii to the United
States in the event of annexation.
Mr.. Sewall may have heard of this
plan, for more than one japanese
was concerned and information on
such subjects is quickly and free
ly disseminated. The Honolulu
merchants are naturally and just
ly jealous Of their reputation for
integrity and are prompt to deny,
and prove the denial of any charge
rejecting upon their business
methods. The Herald has no
idea who Mr.. Sewall referred to
in his official letter, but in throw
ing the dart he hit someone, even
though that someone didn't hap
pen to be a white man. To the
custom officials of the United
States, or to the merchant there,
complexion does not play an i'm
portant part.

TACOMA NOTES.

She Will be Here About Ten Days
Yet.
According to present indica-
tons, the ship Tacoma will be
here for about ten days yet. The
provisions, ambulances, carts. etc,
will take her a week at least to
discharge. Then there will be a
taking on about 300 tons of coal
for ballast. The Tacoma is 80
high that she lists and it will be
necessary to take on the amount
of coal mentioned to prevent this.
The wagons, ambulances, ETC.,
that are being discharged from
the Tacoma are all provided with
wide tires. The complaint against
the first lot brought by the Ia
coma was 80 great, that the auth
critics looked into the matter send
found staring them in the face,
the wide tire act" They acted
accordingly.
The Tacoma will take through
to Manila, some 200 horses and
mules. Extra stalls on the upper
deck are now being provided for
the animals. The very best Of
care will be given them and Lieut.
O'Shea hopes to land in Manila
the same number he takes on here.
The mules brought by the Ia
coma saw service in Cuba. They
were landed in Florida, taken
north and then transported to San
Francisco.
Lieut.. O'Shea was on duty in
Arizona when called away to take
the responsibility of transporting
men and mules to Manila. He is

1t is worthy of notice too that SEN
stor Cullom, chairman of the
Com mission and member of the
committee that reported the Ha-
waiian bill to the Senate, is not
seriously objecting to the Amer
icanizing process through which
the bill is passing.
Great stress is being laid upon
the possibilities of town and
country organizations. Hilo peo-
pie seem to take it for granted that
Honolulu is bound to cinch
them whichever way the legisla
tive elections go. The idea seems
to be that the organization Of
local municipalities will be STAYED
off as long as possible. In this
respect our Hilo friends are cry
ing before they are hurt or before
there are any particular indica-
tons that the people of the terri.
tory want to hurt them. The
prevailing sentiment of the terri
tory from Hawaii to Niihau is
against the continuance of the
present Capitalization. Under
the present regime the pendulum
has swung about as far as
possible. in this direction, and the
people are simply waiting for the
United States to give them the
opportunity to swing it the
other way-toward Independent
municipalities. This sentiment
is being voiced in the universal
demand for an American at the
head of affairs. 1t is also evidenc-
ed by the fact recognized through
out the territory that the first
Legislature will not be in SYM
patty with the present official re-
gime.
The disposition of Congress
will be to create such territorial
law that the people may work out
there own salvation. Hilo's dis
position as expressed in the
Herald is "better no change in
present conditions than failure
to get just what we want" To
champion such plan is to block
the American progress for fully a
year with no guarantee for full
filling their demands at the end
of that period. Isn't it better to
get the entering wedge of Ameri-
can progress started as soon as
possible.

EXPORTS TO CHINA.
Are More Than Three Times A.
Great as They Were Ten
Years Ago.

Exports of merchandise from the
United States to China in the fiscal year
about to end will be larger than those
of any preceding year in our history.
A decade ago the esports.to China were
less than $3,0O0,O0O, and to China and
Hong Kong combined were little over
$6,000,000. In the fiscal year 1899 our
exports to China will be more than $13,-
100000, and to Hong-Kong more than
$6,0O0,000, making a total to China and
Hong-Kong of over $40. .00O, 900, or more
than three times as much as a decade
earlier.
That the bulk Of the exports to Hong
Kong may properly be considered as
ultimately destined for consumption in
China is shown by the fact that the
official reports of the imports into
China show that over "A per cent. Of
their imports are from the port of
Hong-Kong. The 1899 exports to China
and Hong-Kong combined will show a
gain of nearly or quite rs per cent.
over those of last year, while the total
exports from the United States for the
fiscal year 1899 will be little If any in
excess of those of last year, thus show
ing more rapid growth in our exports
to this particular part of the world
than elsewhere.

PLANNING TO STEAL A RIVER.
Opposition Reused Against q Kansas
Irrigation Scheme That Would
Drain the Smoky Hill.

The promoters of the Cheyenne lake
enterprise are projecting an addition
to the ditch plans that is frightening
the people of the section Of Kansas
about Abilene. They have already run
ditch from the Cheyenne bottoms, a
depression IA miles long and six miles
wide, to the Arkansas river. Then on
the north they propose to run ditch
to the Smoky Hill, near Roisington,
which will take the waters into Blood
creek, emptying into the bottoms. If
this is done it will take all the water
from Smoky Hill at that point, and the
mills, electric light systems and other
enterprises dependent on it in central
Kansas will be without power. The
lake is intended to be both huge res
ervoir and pleasure resort, with drives
and boat lines to attract the people Of
the west as it will be the largest arti-
fetal lake in the prairie region. The
rivers are expected to be also feeders
for the irrigation plants of Barton
county and to make all that section
certain of large crops. The people of
this section will fight the proposed
invasion of the Smoky Hill and will ap-
ply to the courts to protect them
through injunction against the parties
who are about to tap the river. They
say it will cause great damage and
will make useless a vast amount of ma
chinerv

1T WOULD NOT PAY.
Constructor Hichborn Pronounces
Reina Mercedes Useless.
Declares That only Sc ntiment Would
Dictate the Reftttng of the Span
ish Cruiser-Would Cost
About S4OO.OOO.

It is not at all certain that the Reina
Mercedes, .he Spanish cruiser recovered
at Santiago and just delivered to the
United States at the Norfolk navy yard,
will be added to the naval list as an ef-
fective vessel. If Chief Constructor
Hichborn 10 consulted and his advice
taken she will not be considered any
thing more than a trophy. She might,
he admits, be sufficiently repaired to
permit Of cruising about from port to
port to be seen, but for any naval pur-
pose he would not advise the expendi-
ture of much money on her.
Mr.. Hichborn says that without hav-
ing heard from board of survey what
will be necessary to put the Reina
Mercedes in order for service he be-
lieves that it will take something like
100000. In his opinion that money
would be better expended upon new
ship. large or small, and the only ex-
cuse that can be offered, he says, for
refitting the Reina Mercedes and sup
plying her with battery will be that
1t is demanded by sentiment. He con-
tinued:
"Some of us are determined not to see
the name of the Reina Mercedes on the
naval list. We are getting pretty long
list of Spanish names on the list with
out her and the smaller ships are useful.
There is no particular use to which to
apply the Reina Mercedes"

A most unusual marriage has Just
taken place at Texarkana, Tex. Six
prominent citizens of Texarkana went
to spend the day with farmer named
Wager, near Rondo. While there they
were informed that somewhere in the
neighborhood young girl was living
as a man, wearing mems clothing. On
the way home the gentleman stopped at
the farmhouse to see If they could
learn more of the strange woman. At
this house was mar and a young lad
who was smoking q cigarette. The
farmers name is z. ID. Sims. Think
ing the men were officers he confessed
that the smoking lad was in reality a
girl named Lulu Shaw. She is very pref
ty and intelligent. To the men she said
she resided at Waco, where her home
had been burned. Sims then took
charge of her and she had learned to
love him. She dressed as man to
keep people from talking about her.
Among the parties who made the dis
covery were two lawyers and an alder
man. who informed the couple that they
were violating the law. They became
scared at that and consented to marry
each other.
The couple were given seats in the
carriage and the whole party entered
Texarkana, the woman dressed in over
alls, mans shirt, suspenders, etc. Coun-
ty Clerk Sanderson was sent for and
issued marriage license for the couple.
County Judge w. l. Hamilton Joined
them while they stood upon the court
house steps, surrounded by the men
who had unearthed the mystery. The
woman has caused much excitement in
the country, but 10 one could swear
that their suspicious were true. After
the ceremony the groom kissed the
bride and they departed for home on
foot, followed by good wishes from the
crowd.

THIS AIRSHIP A SUCCESS.
Evansville und) Man Perfects q Fly
ing Machine That Works
Well.

An airship, the invention of Arcidas
Farmer, of Evansville, Ind, had sue
cessful trial at midnight. The machine
is balloon and was propelled in all di-
rections even in the face of stiff wind,
and made to rise and sink by motions of
aluminium propellers run by the chain
and sprocket taken from bicycle, the
power being the inventor. The trial
lasted an hour and was success in
every way, the ship being navigated at
q height of so feet.
The propelling and steering appara-
tus consist of two four -bladed propel-
lers of aluminium, working without
cover at the end of hollow shafts at the
side of the machine.
They are driven by bicycle gearing,
which gives pull of 40 pounds. The
propellers are ten feet apart, their four
blades each four feet two inches long
and eight inches wide at the ends.
In front of these at where the man
who produces, the power is seated is q
double wheel which enables him to
change the positions of the propellers.
When both are in front of the hollow
shaft the airship is driven forward,
when reversed and thrown back of the
shaft it goes back. If thrown on top so
as to revolve at right angles to the nor
NAL position, the machine rises and
when placed underneath it sinks. Each
propeller is independent of the other
in it's position and by revolving one for
ward and one back the machine can be
made to turn. The basket and ma
chinery weigh rs pounds.
