William j. Bryan, in the House of
Representatives, supported the tariff
bill that put rough lumber on the free
list and reduced the duty on planed
and grooved boards from "a II to
% IS. The lumbermen and the vessel
captains of Maine know what effect
that law had on Maine numbering and
Maine shipping. Every Maine coaster
captain swears under - or perhaps
over-his breath when he sees a lum-
ber- laden Province coaster bound for
New York. Some of the business
which Bryan and other free trade
agitators drove out of the country has
not been recovered yet, but thanks
to the Dingley bill we are gradually
getting it back.

There is more Catarrh In this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years 1t was supposed to be
incurabIe. For great many years doctors pro-
nounced 1t a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies. and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced 1t incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be q constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured by +. j. Cheney Co, Toledo, Ohio,
lie the only constitutional cure on the market.

Bryan isn't saying much about
free silver, which is perfectly natural,
since he was beaten on it four years
ago. But that Bryan is heart, soul and
hand for the debasement of national
currency, even though he attempts to
hide thunder paramount" (?) issue
of anti-imperialism, is proven by his
imperial insistence on the free silver

The sensational New York Journal,
the only big New York paper to sup
port Bryan, publishes list of "distin-
guished republicans from several
states who have forsaken the republic
can party. The distinguished re-
publican boilers from Maine named
by the Journal are ex-Justice Clar-
ence Willis, Silas Look, DanielT. Salt,
Abraham Pipher, Charles Bond, and
Lewis Fay. The names are pure fic-
ton, invented by the Journal. Not
one of the persons named from Maine
ever existed. In this campaign of
misrepresentation on the part of the
democratic party, it is not surprising
that a newspaper like the Journal
should resort to such lying littleness.

HAWAII AS A TERRITORY.
Hartford Post.l

lfldItlOIu fOSt.I
The objections which make against
the establishment of territorial form
of government for Porto Rico do not
obtain in the case of Hawaii. Hawaii
Is already Americanized; Porto Rico
isn't. In all its essential characteris-
tics Honolulu Is an American city, de-
veloped by Americans and displaying
the American spirit. To be sure, the
native-born Americans constitute only
q minor fraction of the total popula-
ton of the Islands, but they are the
dominating force, they sit at the head
of the table, and what they say is pref
ty apt to go. American enterprise,
energy and resourcefulness have
changed Hawaii, and have worked
miracles in development Of its indus
trial and commercial possibilities.
Still further, the creation of terri
torial form of government at the cross
roads of the Pacific would not beget
embarrassments in the matter Of trade
relations between the Islands and the
Mainland.
Porto Rico Is not Americanized-
yet. The conditions which control this
gem of the West Indies are fundamen-
tally different from those that set the
pace in the Pacific paradise in Porto
Rico Spanish influences have been in
the saddle, and American interests
have played no part until recently.
Consequently grave considerations
which may we'll make Congress hesl-
tate before raising Porto Rico to the
rank and responsibility OF territory,
rather than establishing colonial
form of government, are not lacking.
Congress may we'll step cautiously in
solving the Porto Rican problem.

PLEA OF SMALL MERCHANTS.

Proof of the pudding is in the eat
ing. Regulations made by the ship
ping committee Of the Board of Health
were drawn with the honest purpose Of
assisting merchants and relieving the
serious difficulties forced upon bust.
ness men by the plague quarantine
The committee also sought to prevent
discI animation and give all interests
fair show" That practice should
suggest changes Is to be expected and
IL is to be hoped that the committee
will accept such revision as promptly
as possible.
Complaint now comes from the mer-
camille houses in connection with the
regulation requiring that all American
and European goods be shipped in
original packages. This gives the
plantations and large commission
houses relief to the exclusion of the
smaller merchants. Island orders O.
the latter usually necessitate breaking
original packages. The small orders,
however, are none the less important.
The losses of the present situation
fall most heavily upon the houses rep
resenting small capital, which are in
consequence deserving of serious con-
sideration. With the commission
houses the wholesale trade Is usually
carried on merely as an adjunct to
plantation agencies. While sugar can
be shipped their income Is not serious
ly menaced. The purely mercantile
houses are dependent solely upon their
ability to ship small orders on the in
ter-island steamers. They cannot char
ter ships, and unless allowed to send
their goods as ordered. their condition
today Is as serious as during the abso-
lutte quarantine.
1t is the small merchants that stand
in most serious need of assistance, the
large ones are able to stand the siege
for months. The necessity of some
discrimination is recognized, 1t should
be reduced to a minimum, with the
advantage on the side Of the smaller
men IL possible.

The good faith with which the Pow
ers have accepted the disarmament
scheme of the Hague conference was
brought out by Mr.. Goschen. First
Lord of the Admiralty, before the
House of Commons. In presenting the
British naval estimate for 100000, 900
he drew attention to the increased ex-
penditures for armament made by Rus
sia, France and the United States. The
Cars scheme for maintaining peace
was beautiful in theory, but practice
still proves that the best guarantee for
peace Is perfected equipment for war.

THE USELESS DISCUSSION.

The attention of contemporaries in
dulging in discussion of past history
Is called to the statement of Senator
Vest in his discussion OF the Hawaiian
bill. This Democratic Senator said he
had been intensely opposed to the an
nexation of Hawaii but that was now
dead issue. Il shall support the bill"
The ways and means Of annexation
will always be a subject upon which
honest men taking part in the affair
will differ. John l.. Stevens was an
able diplomat and a man whose per-
sonal integrity and loyalty to his ma
ton cannot be impeached. We do not
doubt that there were equally honor
able men on the other side. But an
nexation Is fact and all the yards of
past history the people of this genera
ton or the next may reel Off cannot
change It.
The duty of Hawaii's people today
Is to support the bill' and assist sc
far as possiblei n securing for HawaIi
the rights and privileges granted every
citizen under the constitution of the
United States. It has remained for the
Advertiser to stir up this old time
strife when everybody of average poll
teal intelligence knows that an at
tempt to convince certain Royalists
that annexation was right is like but
ting at a stone wall. There is as much
sense in arguing with Confederate
soldier that the cause Of JEFFERSON Da-
territory and its citizens are American
citizens. Americans and their sympa-
thizers having been successful, 1t i'll
becomes any member Of the old annex
alton party to lead off in stirring up
the old jealousies and bitterness or at
tempt to maintain political division
along the old lines.
The object of the annexation move
ment from the American standpoint
was to secure for Hawaii a stable
American government Of, by and for
the people. This object bids fair to
be speedily fulfilled. What more can
be asked? Let the past drop and pre-
pare for loyal American future in
which the party whose administration
meets popular approval wins, and the
loser takes his medicine and looks
smiling"

FOR THE BOYS. Have you ever stop.
ped to think what a difference there Is In
the makes of boys clothing? Many suits
are bought because the price Is low. It Is
often the price that governs the purchaser,
and not the quality or the substantial
makes. This theory seems to be based on
the Idea that any kind of a suit Is good
enough for boy, as he will soon wear II
out. That Is not good economy, for If YOU
would pay a little more, and consider quail.
ity and make, you would have a suit for
the boy that would always look we'll and
outwear two suits of the Inferior grades.
To buy the best Is money In pocket; to
buy the poorest Is moaey wasted. We

lar prices.
