THE NORTHERN SECURITIES CASE.



The United States Circuit Court of
appeals, consisting of four Judges, has
unanimously held that the Northern
Securities Company, a corporation, can
not lawfully hold the control of the
stock Of Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern Railroads.
The question has been asked as to
whether this decision affects the hold
ing of stock in other corporations, by
local Hawaiian corporations. 1t does
not.
The law and the facts in the rail-
road case are entirely different from
those affecting local conditions.
The two railroads in question are
competing roads running between the
doing an interstate business. They
therefore come directly under the juris-
diction of the Federal interstate COM
merce law.
To a great extent they are also the
which they cross. Their amalgamation
would therefore remove competition
and Great monopoly in restraint of
trade, which is contrary to United
States law.
that is, a company which is formed for
the purpose of holding stocks in other
companies, in Hawaii, for the purpose,
for example, of holding the control of
the stock of two or more sugar planta-
tions does not infringe the interstate
law, because without considering any
other point, they are not doing an inter-
state business. 1t does not violate the
law relating to monopolies. because IL
all the plantations in the territory
should amalgamate, it would not create
monopoly in the sugar business, as
the whole island product of sugar is
insufficient to affect the worlds price Of
sugar. %
The Northern Securities case will
have far reaching effect on the main
land, as number of other railroad sys-
TENS have been awaiting the result. in
tending to amalgamate IL the decision
was favorable to the holding company.
An appeal has been taken to the Su-
preme Court of the United States, but
the general belief Is that the decision
of the court below will be confirmed.

Land Commissioner Boyd complains
that he cannot get data from success
full small farmers for a Forthcoming
pamphlet which he alleges himself to
be anxious to send to home-seekers.
The chances are that a good many
small farmers fear the coming of COM
petltors and others are not handy with
the pen. Enough good matter has been
in type, however, during the past two
years, to supply a pamphlet. The file of
the Hilo Sidelights is rich in original
memoranda and the published testi-
mony of the Farmers Institutes is
available. A man who really wanted to
collate information on small farming
could get it together in a week. But 1t
is easier to send out antique coffee cir
culars.

ADVERTISING.

There are now before the Legislature
two separate and distinct proposals for
advertising matter and one resolution
looking to a general and comprehensive
plan. The suggestion Of Mr.. Harris for
specific appropriation for advertising,
is in conformity with the suggestion of
Governor Dole in his message, that
there be set apart a sum for the assist
ance of the business men i'm carrying
through their plans for attracting tour
lists to Hawaii.
The magnitude of this work may be
understood when it is known that in
the older states when such a plan is
undertaken there is spent from 100000
to $4,000 in one year, by the central
committee in charge. The plan as out
lined by the committee has been to
place throughout the United States a
mass of material for advertising pur
poses, the very first thing contemplate
ed being an edition of pamphlet of
100000 copies, for free and general dis
tribution. But even before that is done
there must be prepared the connections
which will insure the delivery of the
matter to the hands of those whom it
is expected to affect.
1t would seem to be putting the cart
before the horse to buy books without
a system of distribution.

1t is said that when President Roose-

mania for touching his clothing is
sometimes developed among the wom-
en-. The hands reach out from all
sides, and unless, the Federal guards

to dodge on his own account, he would
be found fondled over like a prize pony
at every meeting-place. AT Sioux Falls,

made a dash for him. She was should
cred off, but returned to the charge
again and again. At last, just as the
President stepped into his carriage, she
put a skinny claw over Senator Kit

had been no visible evidence that he
had noticed his pursuer But presently

The st. Louis fair promises to surpass
the Chicago attempt in 1892. That is
one of its objects. Certainly the
projectors have done more to interest
Europe than was deemed possible and
far more than was done eleven years
ago. The single feature in the exhibit
of the Victorian jubilee presents puts
the St Louis fair in class by itself.
Should any European sovereigns at

sued the Kaiser for the large sum of SIP.
Inc Kaiser had, prior to this action, paid
the merchant his account, which amounted
to some hundreds Of dollars, less trifing

The wine merchant, having lost the Kali

pound Of flesh, and sued his late customer
for the full amount due on the wine ac-
