the passenger train, so 1t seems, and
they were left to take whatever luck
they might have with the passenger
train.
Another washout at this place oc-
CURED before the passenger train had
a chance to cross upon the heels of the
construction train. 1t was now late in
the afternoon, and the passengers,
most of them, realizing that they had
to remain there indefinitely, sent to a
house in the neighborhood for some
thing to eat. They got some crackers
and that was all. Some of the passen-
gers wanted the train to back to Waia-
lua, where they knew there was plenty
to eat. but this was not done.
AT 6 o'clock in the evening, however,
the train was backed as far as Makua.
where 1t was found that the freshet
had been the cause of another wash
out. Once more the train returned to
Okihilolo, where it remained all night
with it's load of very hungry passen-
gers.
Some of the passengers were so hun
cry at one time that they ate what
was left from the meal of some Jap
anese laborers along the line. Mean
time the rain was falling in torrents
and walking any distance along the
line in search of something to eat wa:
practically out of the question.
The conductor informed the passen
gers that food would be brought t.
| them in the morning, and the half
starving people anxiously awaited tn,
| light of day. At s o'clock in the morn
| ing breakfast was served and tn
whole crowd fell to with will. Sool
! afterwards the bridge at Okihilol
Gulch was once more repaired, an,
the train safely crossed it and raj
quickly to Waianae. This was yes
terday morning.
AT Waianae the party met Samue
Parker and Prince David. They all re
mained at Waianae until yesterday af
ternoon, when Prince David and Sam
uel Parker chartered a special trail
and everybody returned to the city
lglad that the unpleasant journey wa

Kaahumanu School.

Editor Advertiser:-Your local in yes
terday mornings issue seems to me
liable to mislead as to the extent Of the
leak in Kaahumanu school. The floors
and furniture have not suffered in the
least, though the plaster has. All the
damage seems to have resulted from
the blowing in of rain through defective
louvre Stats at the ends of the building,
and it is slight. To remedy the defect
is a small matter NOW under way.

CONTRACTING THE cIRCULAT-
ING MEDIUM.

There should be added to the follow
ing resume Of the Republican financial
bill the fact that we are $500. 000. 900
short on gold coin in circulation. Says
the National Waterman:
AT a time when the trade OF the
United States is rapidly expanding,
when we are annexing distant islands
for the purpose OF creating more mar
kets, and when domestic industry Is
assuming a new activity, the Republic
an majority in congress is pressing a
bill which will reduce the volume OF
ultimate money by S475. 000,o00 or
whereabouts. The coined silver OF this
country is now. under the law, ultimate
money, the same as gold. When the
pending currency bill becomes a law,
silver will cease to have that function
and gold alone will be ultimate money.
Ii is not currency that the world is
reaching out for. but ultimate money.
1t is easy enough to create currency for
circulating purposes. but to obtain the
coin with which to cover 1t Is quite
different thing. Just now we have an
abundance of gold, but how was it in
1893. and how will 1t be six years
hence? The degradation Of $i75. 000.-
900 of silver will merely tend to in
crease the strain on gold. and this in
the face of an expanding commerce and
growing markets. which create an in
creasing demand for ultimate money.
"All other considerations aside, and
there are very many which should de-
feat this dangerous measure, the I'M
derlying principle OF the bill Is a con-
traction of the money of ultimate re-
demption, and this means the certain
destruction OF commercial and indus
trial prosperity. In any measure, par
ticularly financial bill, there is a vast
difference between certain unfavorable
conditions which it might create or the
deliberate disregard of an underlying
principle of political economy. This
bill does both. While it would estab-
lish many vicious conditions. it would
be possible for the business OF the
country to finally adapt itself to them;
but when a vital principle is set aside
the result is certain to bring disaster.
In this bill it is being sought to trans
act larger volume Of domestic and
foreign business on a reduced volume
OF ultimate money. and this to the ex-
tent of nearly $500 900 900. 1t is need
less to predict the result. That will not
be as much a matter of surprise as is
the fatality with which the Republican
leaders are pressing the bill. They have
apparently become color blind as to
coin, and can see nothing but the yell
low metal"

men clInging together like Siamese
twins. staying the attacks Of a dis
honest people. We are all rogues. and
we haYe departed from the principles
established by the immortal Jackson.
Grover says so. and William mods as
sent. What is the ligature which holds
these Incompatible. inconsistent ele-
ments together in such close relations?
Is there a possibility amounting TO a
possibility that the next ticket to
sweep the country in the interests OF
the foreign bond holder. the trusts.
syndicates, money brokers, banks ana
other instruments OF American pros
perity, shall be Mckinley and Cleve-
land, or Cleveland and Mckinley? 1t
matters little which way the ticket
reads, so far as effects go. True.
Grover did inconsiderately twist the
British lions tail in the Venezuela
matter. but William has been gracious
ly apologizing ever since. even to the
surrender OF the whole country to our
British brethren. England would hail
such ticket with its approval. and put
up money to secure Its election. What
difference. therefore. to the American
people? The men who own and con-
troll the peoples money also own and
control the people themselves.

WHAT Is-wHAT OUGHT TO BE

Upon the subject of what constitutes
civil society, Mr.. Bryan in his address
before the antitrust conference in Chi
cago gave expression to the following
thoughts:
Il believe that, in a civilized society.
the question is not what is. but what
ought to be. and that every proposition
must be arraigned at the bar Of reason.
II you can prove that thing is good.
let II stay; but IL you cannot prove that
II is good, you cannot hide behind the
assertion that IL is here and you can
not get rid OF IL. / believe that the
American people can get rid Of any
thing that they do not want-and that
they ought to get rid of everything
that is not good. / believe that 1t is
the duty Of every citizen to give to his
countrymen the benefit of his con-
science and his judgment, and cast his
influence, be II small or great. upon the
right side of every question that arises.
In the determination OF questions we
should find out what will make our
people great and good and strong rath-
er than what will make them rich. a
good name is rather to be chosen than
great riches Shall we decide the
ethics of larceny by discussing how
much the man is going to steal or the
chances Of his getting caught? No. my
friends. We must decide questions upon
a higher ground. and IL you were to
prove to me that monopoly would re-
duce the price OF the articles that we
have to purchase. / would still be op-
posed to 1t for a reason which. to my
mind. overshadows all pecuniary argu-
ments- The reason is this: Put the
industrial system Of this nation in the
hands Of a few men. and let them de-
termine the price Of raw material. the
price Of the finished product. and the
wages paid to labor. and you viii have
an Industrial aristocracy beside vsieh
landed aristocracy would be an inno!
cent thing"
Every citizen ought to be independ-
ent. and there can be no independence
when the individual Independents OF
the citizen Is destroyed Mr.. Bryan
expresses the idea Is follows:
The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1900-01-27

Here is something for those who
think Jackson would favor Mckinley
ism, were he alive, to consider:
He was the first American to en-
phasize the Democratic doctrine that
under the constitution congress alone
had power TO coin and issue money;
and in his veto of the bill to recharter
the United States bank he declared
that this power was a governmental
function, could be exercised by con-
gress alone, and should not be dele
gated to corporations or individuals.
He denounced the bank and denied the
constitutionality OF It's creation.
Against the advice OF Webster and
Clay, against the decision OF the Su-
preme court, in the face of friends and
foes alike. he took his stand and
fought the fight to . finish against the
most gigantic monopoly which Ameri-
ca at that time had ever known"
The Republican organs have been
eulogizing the memory OF Andrew
Jackson with fulsome praise. They
seem to be afraid of him even in the
spirit But he comes out Of his grave
on occasions and speaks to the Ameri-
can people in such clear language that
no man can be deceived.

FREE FROM PANICS.
REPUBLIC OF MEXICO CON-
rINUES PROSPEROUS.
Free Silver Collage and Staple Govern
nent Currency Serve to Maintaia Tn
equaIed Activity In All Fields OF Pro-
Observation-Disclosures Are Scarce

A New York banker has Just re-
turned from Mexico and was inter-
viewed by the New York Tribune. but
the Arizona Gazette insists that the
whitelaw Reid organ was afraid to
publish the truth about Mexican pros
perity. The returned banker did say
through the Tribune that the republic
is prosperous, paying OF its national
debt and furnishing hundreds OF thou
sands Of new laborers with employ
ment every year. There Is more
money coming into Mexico than ever
before" quoth the banker; banks are
being organized all over the country
and everything is in a cheerful condi-
ton. The Americans and English are
putting up great sugar mills and open
ing up the tropical belt TO the markets
Of the world. Here the Arizona paper
takes up the interview and explains
why the Tribune cut 1t short
There are no panic scares there.
The monetary standard is stable. The
supply of money is sufficient for the de-
mands of trade. In fact, 1t Is the
dOuuuduCe VI IuOHcy Iudb SNoA - eAO
and keeps 1t up. Every Mexican pro-
Queer is making money and Is happy.
While other nations are boarding their
currency, that OF Mexico is in circu-
lation, performing the functions for
which II was created.
Mexican statesmen and fnanciers
attribute the prosperity enjoyed by
their people and the republic to the
unlimited use of silver as a medium
Of exchange.
They have currency which Is not
constantly approaching in value to
the detriment of all other forms OF
wealth; a currency which cannot be
cornered, manipulated or controlled
by a few to the injury OF the many. A
currency which foreign financiers can
not limit or lock up at pleasure. A
currency which enables the producing
classes OF Mexico to realize from their
products more than the bare cost OF
production-in short. a currency which
is satisfactory to and sufficient for the
tradesmen and producers and to every
body except the usurers and the money
changers, who have been scourged
from the temple Of Mexican progress.

in go. During that struggle, too, the
trusts. though already Offering a GER
tain menace to the well-being of the
people. had not developed into such
startling proportions as they now pre-
sent. To these issues Coin, in his new
series OF lectures. devotes much OF his
attention, but the old issue-the issue
that will arise perennially until out OF
the hands of favored class shall be
taken the priceless privilege Of issuing

ple-engages his attention in the open
ing chapters OF the book. do not
think that Mr.. Harvey has ever done
anything so well as his dissection OF
the privileges enjoyed and the further
ones demanded by the national bank
ers. In clear and simple style. using
as heretofore the dialogue form, he
discusses the demand of the banking
class that it shall be permitted to con-
troll the money OF the people, and
shows conclusively by figures. the au-
thenticity of which cannot be disputed,
how enormous are the profits they now
derive and hope to continue to draw
from their monopoly. The profit OF
the dealer in money is the "unearned
increment" no less certainly than is
the profit of the speculator in land who
has contributed nothing to the produc-
tive forces Of the nation. Mr.. Harvey
demonstrates this. though he does not
use this particular comparison, and I
believe that his logic will prove as ir-
REPUTABLE as his language is simple and
direct
In my opinion, this new book OF Mr..

human treatment of the questions OF

a popularity and a circulation quite
commensurate with his earlier one.

II believe society is interested In the

we might have a condition where e7ery
adult who died might die leaving to
his widow and children enough prop
erty for the education of his children
and the support Of his widow. Society
is interested in this because IL a man
dies and leaves no provision for his
wife and children. the burdens fall
upon society. But while / wish to see
every person secure for himself in a
competency. l don't want him to des-
troy more than he is worth while he is
doing that. And believe the principle
OF monopoly finds its inspiration in
the desire Of men TO secure by monopo-
ly what they cannot secure in the open
field OF competition. In other words.
II were going to try TO find the root
of the monopoly evil, would do as
have often had occasion to do-go
back TO the Bible for an explanation
and l would find It in the declaration
that the love of money is the root OF
