1t will be interesting for New York
ers and New Englanders to learn from
the Advertiser of this city that their
country embodies ''the richest agricul-
tural districts in the world AS a
matter of fact, that particular section
of the United States, from which the
editor of the morning paper hills, is
VIGOROUSLY the poorest agricultural
spot on Gods footstooI, the desert of
Sahara probably alone excepted.-Inde-
pendent.
The county of Worcester (Mass.) was,
as lately as 1894, the fifth manufac-
turing county of the United States and
the EIGHTH in the value of it's agri-
cultural products. The State of New
York as an agricultural community is
exceeded in its wealth only by Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas and Texas. all of which
have larger areas.

THE CRISIS AND THE LEGISLATURE.

1t is difficult to see the logic of an
extra session of the Legislature. The
trouble is not that appropriations are
lacking but that money is lacking; and
as no more borrowing can be author
ICED. the Legislature could only add to
the taxation, which is precisely what
the people want to avoid. The latter
simply cannot pay more taxes than
they did last year and demand for a
lower assessment made itself felt in
the county elections and has been
growing since.
True. the Legislature might, if it
wiIled, cut to the quick such salaries
as are not fixed by the organic law;
but we all know that this outfit is
governed in such matters by race con-
siderations and while willing enough
to cut the pay of white officials it new
er fails to raise that of native incum-
bents correspondingly. Nor does any
general and drastic scheme of expense
reduction appeal to it. The Kumalaes
and Kupiheas, ct al, do not care how
heavily the interloping haole may be
taxed. The more the merrier. Per
haps if he is taxed enough he will
leave the country to 'Its people"
Moreover this is Legislature of graft
ers, the personal exceptions being in
minority; and to put such body on
its honor not to plumber the treasury
and make things worse would be like
pledging swine not to go near the feed
trough but to confine themselves TO
restricted diet of fruit and nuts. The
only kind of an extra session this Leg
islature should get is one with the
Grand Jury.
To reach. the root of our financial |
trouble the aid of Congress in reducing |
our system of government to some |
simple form like that Of Alaska, seems |
to be Imperative. 1t is either that pro-
cedure or a rate of taxation which viii |
choke what little prosperity we have
left. stop all sales and development of /
real estate and drive people away.

JApAN's WAR FINANCES.

The regular standing army of Japan
costs but $3.5OO,O0O per year, according
to statistics lately published Pay is
merely nominal, that of a colonel being
less than the average earnings of a
dry goods clerk in Honolulu and that
of a Field Marshal being considerably
less than the salary of a Territorial
head of department in Hawaii. a first
lieutenant of infantry gets less than
$3.50 per year. Japan is poor, living
there is cheap and the people are eager
to sacrifice something to patriotism
hence the national inability to support
costly army is counterbalanced by
the willingness of the adult male in
habitants to serve with the colors chief
ly for their board and clothes-the
board being rice. tea and dried fish.
IRdeed, if worst came to worst the
army would submit to having its wage
scale cut out altogether. Bounties are
unknown; in simplicity and thrift the
military organization of Japan is al
most like that of the Moors who in
vaded Spain.
And yet money for military purposes
is by no means lacking. The war loan
of 100,00O,OOO yen was subscribed to four
times over. The available sum, equal
in denomination to 5000 200, 900 in gold,
represents, in it's home purchasing val
ue, nearly half billion dollars in our
own country. This is more money than
Napoleon's war chest showed at the
zenith of his career; and it is enough
to enable Japan to infiict staggering
blows upon the monetary credit as well
as the military prestige of Russia.
We can safely say that Japan Will
not give up the fight for lack of means
Not only her last public yen but her
last private yen and her extremity of
credit are pledged to carry on the con-
hict so successfully begun

The Territory is indeed safe. Yes
terday the Governor had a conference
over an extra session with Kalauoka-
lani. Kumalae, Kupihea, ]. H. Boyd,
+. j. Tesla, John Wise, Charles Motley
and George Markham. Tt is not known
in what set terms the honesty and pa
triotism of the Home Rule worthless
expressed themselves, but the visiting
statesmen may be set down as unani-
nous for another session of the Legis-
lature. The gathering of that crowd
in the Capitol must have interested the
Grand Jury.

The st. Louis fair has lost Russian,
Korean and Hawaiian exhibits from
its list of expectations. but is likely to
keep the japanese display. There
must be anxiety among the managers
of the big show over the prospects of a
European war. for if such calamity
should come soon, the fair would be
failure A worlds exposition is the
effiorescence OF peace and trade; war
at once interferes with it.

The Bulletin shows a natural interest
in Hearst's barrel. A little while ago
it compared Hearst favorably to Abra-
ham Lincoln. Really that ought TO
bring in a workable proposition from
the Mazuma business agency.

"A special cable dispatch says:
"A rather remarkable explanation Of the
unexpected leaving Of the Baltic fleet

untrue, hut the fact that the main facts
on which 1t Is based are true causes 1t to
be accepted by a great many.
During the time OF the preparatio Of
the Baltic fleet a great many actresses
and chorus girls from the Moscow and
st. Petersburg tn eatres were constantly
with the officers OF the fleet. When
the fleet finally sailed 1t was found that
"a goodly portion OF these women were
missing. It has been learned that they.
are aboard the fleet, and It is said that
the difficulty Of keeping them out Of
sight between decks at Vlgo made It
necessary to get way where they could
be transferred to one of the supply ships
or golfers. It is said that they might
be more easily put ashore from a supply
ship without being seen
