flying his flag from a frst-class battle

cannot enter the navy by way Of An
napolis. the humber doorway must not
be overlooked.
The plans for the education of Amer
lean youth as seamen have reached
stage which indicates revival OF the
days when the tars under the stars
and stripes were remarked everywhere
for personal bravery and intelligent ac-
ton. The traditions of the navy rest
no less upon bravery OF the men taan
gallantry of the officer. To the young
Hawaiian the sea is familiar from birth
and the opportunity for career upon
a warship of the nation is now being
placed at his hand. The apprentice

sTRAl0HTtN HOTEL STREET.

! With Hotel street Strengthened as to
the block between Alakea and Union
streets, and negotiations rapidly COM
ing to a head as regards the little cor
ner plot a the streets named, the con-
tinuance of the nuisance which has
been brought 50 prominently before the
eyes of the people for the four months
past becomes intolerable.
Superintendent of Public Works Boyd
has worked hard in this matter for
more than two months, but ms efforts
at a peaceable settlement have been
consistently blocked by the refusal of
the owners of the property to listen to
any reasonable proposals for settle
ment. 1t seems to an outsider that
there has been even a stretching of Of
fetal courtesy in this case. Why the
entire population of a city should be
compelled to endure discomfort, simply
because the owner of a strip of land,
which the government has announced
it's intention to take. viii not accept
what the officials deem q reasonable Of
fer, is almost beyond comprehension.
Superintendent Boyd in November
graVely announced that he had made
a proposition to the owners of the
property, had offered such a strip of
land as he thought the equivalent of
that which must be taken and if the
owners were not ready to accept, then
he would be compelled to call for a
condemnation commission, which would
fix the damage and the benefit as well,
and in this way secure a speedy open
ing of the street.
Months have passed. street cars still
are Slowed down when approaching the
corner, the people feel the inconven-
fence. yet nothing tangible is done.
Perhaps now that there is a prospect
of action further along the street, Mr.
Boyd will resume negotiations for that
stone wall and push them along until
he acquires the rock. ana there will be
no delay in clearing away an obstruc-
ton to this important thoroughfare.

MUST HAVE PROTECTION.

The adjournment of the Reciprocity
Convention, which met at the National
Capital to consider broader markets. on
the lines of declarations OF president
Roosevelt, permits an analysis of the
work done. After all Is said, however,
the net achievements may be summar-
lied in the expression of the resolution
first adopted:
That this convention recommends to
Congress the maintenance of the prin-
ciple of protection for the home market
and to open up by reciprocity opportuni-
ties for increased foreign trade by special
modification of the tariff in special cases,
but only where 1t can be done without
injury to any one of our home interests
of manufacturing, commerce or farming
The resolution is so broad that at the
first glance 1t would appear to be alb
solutely negative. Reciprocity in the
sense it is taken by the average states
man and business man, means a mu-
tual concession. The opening of new
lines OF trade will involve some relax
alton of tariff rates, perhaps. but there
must be always some assurance that
the letting down of the bars will have
a beneficial result, that something Will
go out as well as come in.
When the facts are considered. how
ever, the declaration of the convention
indicates the intense feeling of the
business men of the nation upon the
subject of protection. There has been
such prosperity under the system that
to make the slightest breach in the
tarif wall is so fraught with possibili-
ties that the convention. called with
the announced intention of declaring
for the wide application of the system.
halted IN Its pronouncement- There
were arguments a plenty, but after all
prosperity in the hand appeals with
greater force than broader markets in
prospect
With this condition obtaining IN the
gathering of representative business
men Of the nation there seems good
reason to believe that the Congress will
go slow before taking action toward
Cuba which will place IN serious jeop-
ardy valuable industry of the nation.
for no other result could follow
sweeping concession IN favor of Cuban
products.

been reached in the breadth of the leg
fslation proposed against Oriental peo-
piles. There are more than half doz-

on the subject. That of Senator Nit

POWER OF REBATE
WHY PACKERS CAN uNDERsELL
LOCAL BUTCHERS.
RAILROADS CONNECTION.
Laborers Have Been Laid off at the
Stock Yards and Others Are to
Follow This Week.

Chicago, May 5.--Here is an illus
tration of the power of rebate: Chi
cago packers are enabled to bring cat
tie from the ranges of Colorado to
Chicago, slaughter them, and then
ship them back to Denver and sell the
dressed meat cheaper than local
butchers are able to sell similar
products.
with the beef trust is expected to play
more important part in the evil
dence in the case than was antici-
pated. The rebate feature is expected
TO be laid bare in all it's details, and
also the charge that the packers hav-
ing car line of their own have been
allowed to transport their rolling
stock when empty free of charge.
The prosecution will attempt to show
that the concessions to the packers
were made only to the big six firms
and denied to all others.
The Chicago Security and Trust
company. having New York and st.
Louis offices, has sent out circular
letter to all retail butchers of the
country, saying that 1t has been ap-
preached with the proposition to
unite all the retail butchers trade
of the United States in an independ-
ent packing and provision company.
The idea is to fight the trust. 1t is
proposed to make it stock company,
with a capital stock of $5,000,000 to
be held by the butchers of the coun-
try. Cold storage warehouses are to
be established in all the principal
cities, and the company will do
general packing and provision bust
ness.
1t is thought that 10000 butchers
will go into the scheme. Each one
will put up $3.50, which will settle the
capitalization, and establish the COM
pany SO that it can protect it's mem
bers. 1t is thought that 10 per cent.
dividends can be declared.
Instead of the usual Saturday run
OF 1000 cattle, the receipts at the
stock yards yesterday were scarcely
200. The meat boycott is alarming
the packers and crushing live stock
commission men.
A representative of the Cattle Grow
ers' association said today; THE
stockmen can not feel friendly to the
packers. Had there been some reci-
procity in the fight on the oleomar-
garine bill things would be different
now. But we are going to let the
packers take care of their own trou-
bles, the same as they did with us.
II the stockmen have any sense they
will not ship any cattle for a week
and it will be found that the packers
will come around and quit bluffing
Three thousand more employees have
been laid off by the big Six" 1t lie
anticipated that the stock yards will
be graveyard this week.
