THE BAGGAGE INSPECTION ORDER

If the new order providing for the in
spection of the baggage of through pas
sengers at this port is made to save
delay for them at San Francisco, 1t
might properly be made n subject Of
protest by the Chamber of Commerce
and the Merchants Association.
1t often happens that through pas
sengers have but a few hours in which
to see Honolulu. When there are many
of them, the inspection and certification
Of baggage here makes long delay
and not only costs the tourists some
sightseeing but it costs the town some
money which the tourists would other
wise spend. And all this for the ac-
commodation and benefit of San Fran
cisco--a place which. in any event, the
tourists have ample time to see.
1t is much in the interest of Homo
lulu. for reasons which are obvious,
that through passengers should have all
the time the port stay Of the steamer
affords, to visit places of interest

A LOOK AHEAD.

The Independents hint that Roose-
Welt may lose the support of Hawaiian
delegates to the next National conven-
ton, comes as warning and in good
time.
The scheme apparently is to capture
the next Territorial convention by
means OF our wide-open primaries and
instruct the delegates to support Roose-
welt only on condition that he will name
a Governor chosen by the conspirators.
or course the trick will not work, for,
as the Sunday Advertiser showed, the
President is as good as nominated now
and won't care for Hawaiian support.
But he would not forget the attempt 10
force his hand and that would be bad
for the Territory.
There are signs that gubernatorial
politics are getting very warm. But
that Is not all. They are also getting
dirty.

GOVERNOR TAFT'S WORK.

When the Pacific cable Is connected
up and in working order before the end
of the present week, If all goes well one
of the messages which Honolulu will
send under the sea will be addressed to
Gov. Taft of the Philippines. A strong
able man, that and one who will be
given a prominent place in the history
of Americas broading out. OF the work
of this official, the New York Sun said
in recent appreciation:
After Gen. Miles somewhat hasty
conclusions and recommendations re-
speeding famine conditions in the
Philippines. it is encouraging to get a
plain, straight, uneXaggerated, unemo-
tional statement from the best au-
thority on the subject, Governor Taft.
The quiet efficiency with which this
remarkable administrator is dealing
with the agricultural situation in the
islands is reflected in the tone of his
report to the War Department. There
is a shortage of the usual food supply,
but Governor Taft has been surprised
to find thus far how little real famine
or hunger there has been. Not a sin
gle provincial governor has yet made
requisition for free rice. Any possible
calls in the summer months will be
readily met by the commission from
its fund of 100000 available for that
purpose. y threatened corner in rice
was prevented by government pur-
chases of the article, amounting to
$3.50, 900 gold
The entire report of Governor Taft is
as full of practical common sense as
it is free from either foolish optimism
or any conscious or unconscious ex-
aggeration of conditions with n view
to magnfying the Importance of his
executive efforts. 1t will be read with
the increased conviction that here is
an administrator whose main concern
is with the task committed to him, not
with his own attitude or appearance
in relation to that task.

GREAT YEARS BUSINESS.

The foreign commerce of the United
States will be, in the year about to
end, the largest in the history of the
country. Imports exceed a billion dol
| lars, and exports will be larger than
| in any preceding year except 1901. The
eleven months figures, which JUSTIFY
this conclusion, show that the imports
of the period ending with May were
! s943, 597 1874. and the exports 1884 ,493 293.
For the twelve months ending with
| May the imports are 81 Ole, 7l2, 24S, and
the exports, lab ,776. The largest
imports in any earlier fiscal year were
1908, 320, 94s, in 1902.
AS the largest exports Of any pre-
cedng year, except 1901, were 1884,
4s3, O12, In 1900, and those of the eleven
months ending with May were 81 ,32f,-
493, 1893, and the smallest exports of any
month in the year were eighty-eight
millions, 1t is apparent that when the
month of June is added, the exports
total for the year will exceed that of
1900. and will pass the 81, 400, 900 line.
The largest total commerce (by which
is meant the imports and exports COM
bined) of any earlier year was that of
1901, s2,31O, 937, 156, AS the total imports
and exports for the eleven months end
ing with May were s2,26S, 09O, 4S7. and
the combined imports and exports Of the
lightest month of the present year were
one hundred sixty-two millions, 1t is
apparent that the commerce Of the
twelfth month added to the total
already shown by the eleven months
will make a grand total exceeding that
of 1901.
OF the more than one billion dollars
worth of imports for the full year, man
ufacturers' materials will form nearly
$500, 100000 value. In the ten months
whose figures are completed by the
Treasury Bureau of Statistics manu-
facturers' materials formed Az per
cent of the total imports and in the
latest month available, April, they
formed 1917 per cent. The percentage
which these materials for use Of the
manufacturers form of the grand total
is larger in that part of the fiscal year
whose figures are completed than of
any preceding year. In 1902 manufac-
turers' materials formed 46.1 per cent
of the total imports: in 1900, 45.7 per
cent: in 1885, 42.0 per cent in 1885, 81
per cent: in 1890, 34.5 per cent; in 1885,
33.1 per cent; in 1870, 2S.2 per cent; in
1860, 26.4 per cent, and in 1910, 2l.2 per
cent, of the total imports.

HAWAIIAN COIN.
1.-THE Official and Commercial Record

IThe Of1clal and commercial ReCord.l
1t is reported that since the first
week in February of this year the First
National Bank has redeemed some $780,
10000 of Hawaiian coin.
According to the estimates of the best
experts there were only about $500, 900
of the original million that could be
taken up, the balance being. supposed
ly. carried away as souvenirs and used
up in making ornaments. Accepting
this estimate as correct there would be
only about $4,000 of the coin still in
circulation, the mutilated percentage of
which must be constantly increasing
until it now stands the merchant in
hand to scrutinize the coin pretty care
fully before transferring it to his till,
as he stands to lose about 67 cents on
every face dollar of mutilated coin he
receives.
1t would seem n wise move for the
business houses to agree to hold and
turn in for redemption every piece of
Hawaiian money that comes into their
hands for say two or three weeks, thus
withdrawing it from circulation and at
the end of such period the amount of
good coin left in this market would be
so small as to render ii an easy matter

FORESTS AND FLOODS.

The recent floods in the West have
aroused anew comment upon the neces-
sity for forestation of the denuded
portions of the West. There will be
more of this too from the scientists, for
the tracing of the origin of the I'M
precedented rainfall and its rush to-
ward the sea will occupy their attention
for some time.
In the course of recent opinion on
the subject Mr.. John p. Brown, secre-
tary of the International Society of
Arboriculture after forty years of OBJ
servation and study, declares that an
era of floods has set in, and that as a
consequence of deforestation the disas-
trous experience will be repeated every
year in other parts of the continent.
Moreover, within fifty years the great
Middle West agricultural region will
be sterile and unproductive.
That the destruction of trees may
cause sterilty is granted. At least 1t
is a subject for men of science to con-
slider.
But the great flood of 1874 came from a
virgin forest. In 1858 conditions were
not materially changed. The theory is
clear enough. The forests have been
cut away. The snow, unprotected by
the trees, melts quickly and the rivers
are suddenly filled with great volumes
of water. 1t seems probable. But do
the facts approve the theory?

-EvANGELlZING HAWAII.

The campaign to begin for the
evangelization Of Hawaii will be inter.
esting to watch. In debating this mat
ter before, the Advertiser has said that
as a general rule, public interest in
things religious is never great during
prosperous or fairly prosperous times.
All the national revivals for seventy
years past followed close upon a bust
ness panic and came to an end with
It's recovery. True, in Hawaii, there
was a conversion of natives en-masse
which had no bearing on the state of
the money market; but that was when
the Christian religion was new to the
Hawaiian people who, like the Athen-
ians, have always been ready to take
up with any new thing.
IL the plan to evangeliZe Hawaii
means revival methods in cold blood.
we shall have our misgivings as to the
result. The precedent state--the great
calamity-is lacking. Anything that
will shake the confidence of the masses
in their power to get along without
supernatural aid, would bring revival
of itself. A discourse of pure reason
will not do 1t nor will appeals to the
emotions nor yet will the personal mag
netism of the pulpit orator; there must
be the inward pressing need and call
for help on the part of the people them
selves. At least that is the, deduction
we get from the history of evangelical
movements in modern times.
Still the opportunity to do good is
nowhere lacking; the question has other
angles. From the wisdom of CEN
turtles the Roman Catholic church has
learned to build slowly, beginning with
children. 1t does not put much stress
upon revivals or missions" as the
Catholic term is, except to awake in
terest among non-Catholics. But it
does all it can to get very young peo-
pie into the fold and so Undue them
with Catholicity in youth that they
cannot get away from it in age. Give
us the children and we care not what
you say to the elders" Is one way of
putting the Papal formula. That it is
the beginning and end of the wisdom
of church organization and increase, is
shown by the wonderful growth of the
Roman communion and the undertaking
loyalty of its adherents.
The conclusion is that II the Prot
estant churches are to make great
Roadway here among the people now
outside their common fold, they must
put most of their efforts into the in
of the young, getting them
into religious schools and other institu-
lions and keeping everlastingly at them
until they grow up in the faith. Adults
are pretty well settled in their convic-
tions, one way or the other; and 1t
seems almost as impossible to change
their views concerning religion as it is
to change their habits of pronuncia-
ton or economy or their tricks of man
ner. But the young may be moulded.
They are wax to receive and marble

the FUTURE OF THE PACIFIC.

. President Roosevelts speech at wat
sonville, Cal. in which he limited at
future American supremacy in the Pa
tffic, has aroused the foreign press.
The Paris Temps, organ OF the French
foreign ministry, discusses the subject
as follows
"The German press shows that 1t Is
passably moved by the language which
President Roosevelt recently made use
of regarding the Pacific Ocean. :.
The chief magistrate of the great re-
public of the New World thought it his
duty to affirm that the vast body of
water upon whose shores he found him.
self was destined to fall under the
dominion OF the United States. To this
grandiose assertion he added an eX.
hortation to the American people,
whom he implored to rise to the height
of their destiny and whom he reminded
that a nation renders itself worthy ana
capable of greatness only by continuous
effort and by unceasing labor. Such is
the speech which has disturbed the
calm of the augurs on the banks of
the Spree. American slang,
that picturesque jargon which fears
neither familiarity of utterance nor
vulgarity of expression, has special
phrase with which to characterize such
grandiloquence: It's large ORDER
something equivalent to our own iEX-
cuse the trife.' And If the civilized
world still remembers the protests
evoked by the unfortunate expression
of a too ambitious statesman who spoke
of making the Mediterranean French
lake, it is beyond dispute, and all the
evidence indicates, that the infinitely
more exorbitant pretension of making
the Pacific Ocean a Yankee lake will
arouse opposition elsewhere than in
Berlin. Australia, that vigorous COM
monwealth which has grown up under
the protection of the British crown, and
which remains, beneath the far-away
sovereignty of the king, loyal and
patriotic member of the British empire,
Australia will certainly have a word to
say on this subject, and it is doubtful
il she will resign herself easily to rec
ognizing American supremacy over
those vast seas and to permitting the
Washington Government to substitute
throughout these regions for the proud
Rule Britannia an impertinent 'Rule
Columbia On the other hand, the pow
ers which have a boundary on the Pa
cific Ocean are numerous. There is, in
addition to England, France, Germany,
Russia, Holland, and it is not likely
that great states, after having made
such great sacrifices for centuries either
to acquire colonies or to extend their
influence and commerce throughout
these remote ATTITUDES, will bow at once
before the pretensions of the United
States and give way to this new and
latest conner"
The Pacific ocean will probably not
be controlled by any one power any
more than the Atlantic is, but natural-
ly the country having the largest In
terests on the borders of the great
sea and the most tonnage atloat on
its waters, will, IL possessed of the
largest Navy, have the most to say
about it's concerns. The contest for
primacy lies between Great Britain,
Russia, Japan and the United States,
but it is much too early to say which
will win.
