OPIUM IN HAWAII.
The Drug Is Openly Used in All Parts
of the TerritOry-No Legal
RESTRICTIONS

of the TerritOry-Ao Legal
Restrictions.
Hawaii is a paradise for the opium
eater Nowhere else is its sale so IN
restricted or its use so widespread
/ The recent charges preferred against
Chinese Consul Wei Pin of engaging
IN wholesale opium smuggling, and
the report that opium was being sent
here billed as stationary, has started
an investigation, which shows that the
drug is used here in almost unlimited
quantities, reports the Chicago Inter
Ocean.
When the customs offices were TAX
en- over by the United States it was rec
ognized that the laws Of the smaller
republic as to prohibiting the importa-
tion Of opium could no longer be en-
forced, and the drug was allowed TO
enter upon payment Of the high duty
assessed under the tariff act. Then the
| importers ran against .snag in the
| local law. which made il a crime to have
| opium in possession. Purchasers Of
the drug were arrested by the police
until test was brought and il was de-
clared unconstitutional By the courts.
Since that time there has been no
law in Hawaii limiting the use Of the
drug or restricting its sale, and nearly
as great a quantity is imported here
as in the United States. A consider
able amount Of opium is still shipped
to San Francisco and then reshipped TO
Hawaii, though for what reason is
not known.
Its use here by opium fiends is now
open. It'll not even confined TO 'dens."
Opium pipes are sold openly al many
of the Chinese and japanese business
places, while the opium itself is sold
in cans and in any quantity desired at
scores Of places throughout the terri
tory. The odor q the pipe Of the OPT
um dreamer can be plainly distin-
guished on almost any Of the principal |
business streets Of the city, and he is |
left unmolested in the joys Of his |
dreams.
There are very few Chinese in the |
territory who do not have some Of the |
drug somewhere about their premises,
even though the cost is more than ii Is
supposed the average Hawaiian Chi
nese can afford. Its darkly rumored
that some Of the most prominent men
in the community obtained their
wealth by smuggling opium into the
country in former days, and there are
any number of prominent Chinese
in the same category.

NO EXCLUSIVE FRANCHISE.

At a special meeting Of the Central
Labor union resolutions were adopted
declaring against an exclusive franchise
Of the proposed electric power project
now pending before the city council.
At this special meeting only a bakers
dozen Of the membership of that body
were present and the instigators of the
meeting were openly charged with hav-
ing been hired by parties interested in
sandbagging the cheaper power enter
prise, which is of great moment not
only for the members of organized labor
who now reside In Omaha, but also for
future generations of workingmen.
In the very nature of things it would
be deplorable for the Central Labor
union TO array itself against an enter
prise that would insure an increase Of
mills and factories for Omaha and South
Omaha by snap judgment taken ON mis-
Information. The hue and cry raised
against an exclusive franchise IS mis-
leading. There can be no such thing
as an exclusive franchise or grant In
the state OF Nebraska. That was set
tied by the courts in the decision rela-
tive to the franchise voted by an Omaha
city council to the Holly Water Works

4 BLOW TO AMERICAN EXPORT.

The German tariff will, it is said by
those who speak with authority, de-
prive the meat packing industry of %
per cent of the provision export trade,
exclusive Of fresh meats. The foreign
representative Of one Of our leading
packing firms states that the new law
will practically put an end to the meat
trade with Germany, which is one
fourth of u total exports in this line.
This is a serious blow and the packers,
it is reported, are preparing to ask the
government to take some action for
their relief.
There is no doubt that the new Ger
man tariff is aimed at the United
Some of the supporters of the measure
have been so frank as to publicly de-
clare such to be the case. Some ten
days ago a resolution was introduced In
the Reichstag in regard to Withdrawing
the most favored nation treatment from
countries which do not grant to Ger
many full reciprocity. The mover of
the resolution declared that it was
aimed primarily against the United
States. In the course of the debate on
the tariff bill last Saturday the fact
that it is directed chiefly against this
country was clearly disclosed, one
speaker saying: I'VE expect that the
government win undertake a thorough
going revision Of all treaties containing
the most favored nation advantages.
The United States has introduced the
limitation of the most favored nation
clause; we have every reason to act
in precisely the same manner" II is
possible that the German government
will not be disposed to go as far as the
advocates Of discrimination against the
United States desire, but it appears to
be reasonably certain that our CONNER
cial relations with Germany are ap-
preaching a crisis.
What should be the policy OF this
country in the matter is manifestly an
important question. Undoubtedly there
are some who will counsel retaliation,
but that is a course to be adopted only
when all other plans and expedients fail
While there can he no question that in
any tariff war between Germany and
the United Stateo, the commerce OF this
country would suffer a good deal less
than that OF Germany. the fact is to
be borne in mind that there are meas
ures of reprisal open to Germany to
which we could not reasonably take ex-
eeption, bnt which would nevertheless
place some OF u products now finding
a market in Germany at a considerable
disadvantage. Some time ago the able
consul general OF the United States al
Berlin, in a report to the Department OF
State, urged that there should be
broad, liberal and comprehensive treaty
between the two countries, under the
influence of which the prosperity and re
ciprocal good Will Of the republic and
empire will be promoted and main

NrR rnRK LOAN sIrrAr1on.

The New YORK Investor, in a careful
analysis of the loan record of the New
York banks since August 20, when the
stringency became critical, emphasizes
the fact that In the meantime there has
beer no net reduction Of the loans, The
banks all understood that the difficulty
of the situation was caused by excessive
borrowing, especially for speculative
purposes, and it is admitted that they
have made strenuous efforts to call in
loans. But while an immense amount
of loans have beer called in, the fact
remains that the banks have not been
able to resist the pressure for funds in
other directions, although they have C
ceeded in effect in getting sounder Sc
curity without reducing the amount of
the loans.
The significant explanation given by
the Investor Of the failure Of the banks
to materially shrink the volume of loans
amounts to an impeachment OF the
policy of the banks. 1t is in short that
many Of the banks themselves. directly
or indirectly, were implicated in specu-
lations and promotions. They felt bound
to sustain the market in the interest of
these operations, and to do this It was
necessary to be lenient with many en-
terprises In which they were not directly
interested.
The failure to restrict loans appears to
be one of the strongest points operating
on foreign creditors at this time, and
whose demands are making the money
market very sensitive. There is not as
yet any pronounced and general move
ment on their part to call home their
enormous loans that have been piling up
for over a year, and it is not believed
that there will be, but with the pressure
so severe as it has been on the banks
for several months any noteworthy de-
mand Of the foreign creditors is instantly
severely felt.

All, there spoke the heart of a womanl
Who'd ask of her church or creed?
She Followed a Godlike impulse
To lessen a human need;
Her womanly soul was ringing
With unto the least of these
She gave of her best to shelter
A babe from the chilling breeze.
She gave OF her best; the widow
Who came with her wretched mite,
And gained for herself approval
From Him who was just and Tight;
Deserves not a place more honored
Than she who was quick TO part
With costliest silken raiment
Because of her tender heart.

So complicated Is the Venezuelan sit
uation that mo- definite opinion can be
formed as to what course it may take
or what the probable outcome will be.
The proposal of arbitration made through
our government is under consideration
by the British and German foreign Of
fees. but there is no lntimation as to
what their decision will be. There must
be a consultation between the allies, and
this may delay fer several days a de-
termination of the question whether or
not the proposal shall be accepted. The
indications are that the British govern
ment is %favorably disposed toward the
arbitration proposition, but a report from
Berlin states that 1t Is the opinion In
official circles there that the proposition
was made too late to affect the general
situation. This, however, would hardly
be regarded as a valid reason for reject
ing 1t, since It was submitted as soon as
possible after the allies had entered
Venezuelan waters and demonstrated
their purpose to forcibly collect their
claims. To reject arbitration because
it was not proposed before what has
occurred would be very generally re-
garded as implying that the European
nations are aiming at something more
than the collection Of debts.
Meanwhile there is reported to be very
strong sympathy with Venezuela on the

and a disposition to offer her assistance
If she shall need It. This is credible,
for most of the southern republics are

Britain and Germany toward Venezuela,
If those powers succeed in collecting
their claims. 1t is unfortunately true
that integrity in regard to financial obli-
cations is not a conspicuous character
istlc of the Spanish-American countries
generally, and when they find a determin-
alton on the part of their creditors to
compel them to pay their just debts 1t
is quite natural that they should be dis
posed to stand together for resisting it.
IL is also said that there is great dis
satisfaction with the United States he
cause it does not interpose in the Ven
ezuelan difficulty and make application
of the Monroe doctrine. Dur govern
ment has repeatedly and clearly ex-
planned the meaning and scope Of that
doctrine, which 1t has very recently
been pointed out by the president Of the
United States. does not safeguard the
Independent countries of this hemi-
sphere against the collection of financial
obligations which they justly owe and
refuse to pay. The United States in
tends to protect all of its sister repub-
lies against seizure of territory by a for
eign power, and from interference by
a foreign nation with their political in
situations, but it says to them If they re-
fuse to pay their debts this government
will not interpose to prevent the collec-
ton of such debts by the method which
it has recognized as legitimate. With
this the Monroe doctrine has nothing
to do. .t'1 So; - -
1t is still possible that the Venezuelan
difficulty will o become more acute
and aggravated, and there is no doubt
that whatever our government can prop
erly do to this end will be done.

For many years The Evening Bee has
been recognized officially by the city and
county boards as the paper having the
largest circulation in Omaha and Doug
las county. Druggists and liquor deal
ers may publish their applications for
license in The Evening Bee in eompli-
ance with the law in good faith and no
licensing board can legally refuse their
applications If they publish their notices
this year where they have been pub
lished during previous years. If other
papers have any claims to priority they
have not yet furnished the proofs either
that they have increased their circula-
lions within the last year to surpass The
Evening Bee or that The Evening Bee
has lost its circulation during the past
year and fallen behind them. Under
such conditions the attempt to compel
these people to pay three prices for one
service is a downright imposition.
