iNsULAR COMMERCE.

Commerce of the United States with
it's noncontiguous territory now aver
ages about eight million dollars per
month, and it is apparent that for the
full fiscal year it will aggregate a round
one hundred millions of dollars. In the
term 'noncontiguous territory are in
cluded Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands,
the Philippine Islands, Guam, Tutuiia,
and Porto Rico. Records of their ship
ments to the ports of the United States
and of shipments from the various
ports to them are now regularly pre-
sented by the Department of Commerce
and Labor through it's Bureau of Statis-
tics.
These records show that the ship
ments from the United States to Alas
ka, Hawaii, Porto Rico, the Philippines,
Guam and Tutuila aggregated in the
seven months ending with January,
1904, nearly twenty-one million dollars,
and the merchandise received from
them in the same period nearly thirty
one million dollars. If to this is added
the gold bullion received from Alaska.
the grand total of our commerce with
the territory in question for the seven
months ending with January would
amount to nearly sixty million dollars.
which makes it quite apparent that for
the fiscal year ending with June 80 next
the total Will be fully one hundred mil
lion dollars
OF the shipments to these noncon-
tiguous territories, the largest total for
the seven months under consideration
| is to Hawaii. s., pa 156 worth of domes-
| tic merchandise and of foreign r1er-
| chandise, s52,677. Porto Rico is next
as purchaser from the various ports
OF the United States, the total ship

| months in question being S6454417

about this plan is that the Philippines
could not defend themselves They
would need our protection. which means
that we should be called upon to act as
an unpaid policeman at considerable
risk of personal damage. The argu-
ment for getting out Of the Philippines
does not admit of lingering there in
another capacity. Yer. if we should go.
Germany or Russia might come;
whereupon the last estate OF the Fill
pinos, as a disconnected people. would
be worse than the frst.
Japan might like to buy the group
after this war. She has shown capacity
in Forrnosa as a colonizing power. She
understands the Oriental as we and as
Europeans dc not. Geographically, the
Philippines would lit into her scheme
of empire; politically Japan would treat
the Ffhpinos as the equals of her own
subjects. But the United States can
not, in cold blood, either buy or sell
the collective human being any more
than it can the individual one. What
it gets in the fortune of war is one
thing. What it might be asked to sell
to rid itself of a bad investment, is
quite another.
If Dewey, after destroying the Span
lsh fleet. had gone to Subig Bay and
awaited developments, and if the United
States had kept its soldiers at home,
things would be simpler now; but as
matters stand, the United States is in
volved in maze of difficulties from
which the way of an honorable escape |
s not at all clear.

THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION.

Some of the distinguished men of the
Republican party, including those close
to the President. have lately expressed
regret that the United States took the
Philippines from Spain. Those islands
ha ye proved to be a costly luxury and
are likely to be more of one because
of the strict application of American
ideas of local sef-government. Ruled
by America for its own benefit as In
dia is ruled by England. the Philip
pines would pay; but ruled by F'iIipfnos
for their benefit, according to the Taft
program. they must prove to be an in
cumbrance at all times and a dead
weight when. if ever, it becomes nee
essary to defend them from an agrees
sive naval enemy
In considering what is to be done in
future with this bad investment. it is
easy to suggest that the islands be
sold to their people, the United States
recovering the s2o.OoO.OOO paid to Spain
and the cost of improvements made
since the occupation. But the difficulty

supREslE COURT APPOINTMENTS

The Bar Association would do well
not to make itself the medium of any
mans antipathy to the Supreme Court
or, for that matter, to any other court
If it becomes a personal spite machine
its usefulness win be destroyed. While
i. is the duty OF lawyers as well as of
laymen to work against Judicial ap-
pointments which threaten to degrade
the bench and pollute the administra-
ton of justice, no such appointments
are slated for Hawaii and there is
every prospect that the President win
choose wisely between the names of
the excellent men who have been sug-
gested to him. Between such a-pir-
ants as Frear. HartweII, Perry, Hatch
and Highton there is wide latitude of
acceptable choice and any three of them
intellectual bench. There are other
names before the public but those of
them we recall are not under such close
consideration at the White House as to
make it necessary for the Bar Associa-
ton or anybody else to take them up.
The gentlemen who have been named |
as the probable bepefciaries of the
scheme which lies back of the call for a
Bar Association meeting cannot afford
TO let themselves be put in the position
of grievance candidates, especially
when the chief grievance is that of a
disbarred lawyer who earned disgrace
many times before it came to him.
They can do better to rest their claims
upon their acknowledged merits as law
yers and gentlemen irrespective of the
schemes OF any man who has the thirst /
of revenge to Stake. The President, in
comforting with the Governor. will not
be Eisled as to persons.

The GAME OF war.

The Russians seem to think that
Japan has lost golden oportunity by
not invading Manchuria when it's de-
tenders were comparatively few, but it
may turn out that Russia is the one
that has lost by not occupying Korea
before the japanese did. All depends
on the Japanese plan of campaign. If
the Russians are right in thinking
that the japanese intended to invade
Manchuria, then surely much valuable
time has been lost. But it may turn
out, as the Advertiser has said before,
ag further than Korea, the desire to
e.zssos prhich WAS their incentive for
1 king the chance Of battle; and that
ii sir object win be TO hold il against
Ri ssia and incidentally. while the war

to make Russia's fortified ports I'M
pleasant places to live in.
This theory finds some color in a
statement made last summer to travel
ling Hawaiians, by British diplomat
in Asia. that Japan cared nothing for
Manchuria. but by bothering Russia
about it hoped to compromise on Korea.
Let it be remembered that, when Japan
thought it had China at it's mercy, it
did not ask for Manchuria; all it want
ed on the mainland was a strategic !
foothold on the Liaotong peninsula. In |
the nature of things Manchuria would |
be an unwise possession for Japan just
would be poor acquisition also but for
its proximity to Japan and the abso
lutte need of an outlet for the surplus
of the island empire.
If Japan has indeed decided to be
content with the capture of the ter
ritory it wanted and with the command
Of the sea, the difficulties of Russia in
this war will be vastly increased. The
Cars strategists have laid out their
campaign on the theory that the Jap !,

NO LOBBYING THIS lime.

The Governor makes no mistake in
warning the of1ce-holders of the Terri
tory against lobbying with the Legis-
lature. One of the crying evils of
legislation here in the past has been
the active work of offiee-holders to get
more salary from the Iaw-makers. and
that of Purchasers to get themselves
on the payroll. 1t is not in the prov
ince of the Governor to deprive the
latter class of access to the Legislature,
but he can check the former. which is
the one that does the most mischief.
Heads of departments will be pretty
sure not to forget the Governors in
junction SO far as they themselves are
but they Will not fail. if in
with the spirit of the Execu-
tive policy, to warn their subordinates

The story told by Norwegian sailors
returning from Port Arthur is that, at
the time of recent bombardment,
there We're but a few vessels in. the
harbor-eight We're listed. This prob
ably referred to non-combatant ships.
As to armed vessels there should have
been forty-two, excluding the eleven
which the Japanese claim to have put
out of commission. These ships were
there few days before war broke out
and they have not been seen any
where else since.

If the automobile has come to stay,
the idea of a transcontinental boule-
ward may yet be realized. The bicycle
did much for good roads; the auto may
do more. A fine thoroughfare across
the continent would induce new sort
of travel and powerfully affect the de-
velopment of the country along the
route. In this connection we note a
movement to revive the ancient trail
between Sonoma and San Diego. in
California, which connected all the
missions and was called ''the Kings
highway" BY joint action of the coun-
ties, perhaps with State aid, the high
way may be built.
