GLOOMY DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK.

Three months ago the Democracy
thought 1t could elect its next nominee
for President. 1t conceived the idea
that II 1t named conservative man he
would get the votes and they the
money Of the great business interests
whom Roosevelt was said to have
alienated. In due time they picked
out Alton 3. Parker OF New York and
sat down to await the rising flood of
popular enthusiasm. But instead of a
rise there was subsistence. The busi-
ness interests, dissatisfied with a plat
form which represented a concession
10 Organism and responding to the
definite financial pledges of the Repub-
lican platform, determined to support
Roosevelt; and today We read in Demo-
cratic papers that money is pouring
into Republican Golfers and that the
trusts" are standing pat. Leading
Parker papers scarcely try to conceal
their vexation.
III may DE set uONH as an dAioIi VI
American politics that the party In
power stays in power except in times
of financial panic or factional rebellion.
Following the business disaster of 1873
was a revolt against Republicanism
which gave the Democratic nominee
for President a popular majority of
quarter of a million. Why he was not
seated is a question of ethics. Hard
times during Cleveland last term did
most to elect Mckinley. Good times
were the strongest obstacles that
Bryan had to meet. AT present the
times are good enough to sustain the
Roosevelt administration in public
favor and defeat every scheme to i'm
pose a change for the sake of a change.
The utterances of the Democratic
press on the mainland are generally
gloomy. Many leading journals chide
the party managers for apathy. But
the managers, shrewd and capable as
they are, cannot be blamed for their
failure to awaken a corpse. They are
making what noise they can but there
is no response from the inert party
mass in which all enthusiasm is dead.
Nor does it seem probable that their
efforts will result in anything better
later on.

The friends of Morris Keokokalole
are raising money, at the instance of
Admiral Beckley. to bring him home
from Washington. The letter publish
ed in Sundays Advertiser touched a
responsive chord and will be the means
of Mr.. Keohokalole's return. Charity
might well go little further and
bring back the aged Hawaiian couple
whom Dr. Walters found in the north
ern part of California. where they have
lived for generation or more. Their
exile has outlasted many a lifetime.

PROBLEMS OF SMALL FARMING.

The Stars objections to the small
farm movement are that there is no
local market worth cultiVating for is
land vegetables and fruits; that tropical
products, salable on the coast, can only
be shipped on American steamers and
there are not enough of these to assure
prompt service and low rates; that
there is no promise that a farmer could
find good, productive land upon which
to grow his wares; that a market and
transportation to it should precede the
cultivation of Hawaiian crops.
In reply we would say:
l. The small farm proposition does
not include market gardening except
for the sustenance of the farmer while
export crops are growing. We contend
that he can always feed himself and
have surplus poultry, eggs, pork, dairy
products and fruits to sell. That is as
good an outlook as the majority OF
American farmers have.
ii. Steamers cannot be expected to
tie up here and stay to encourage the
growing of export crops. They Will
wait until there is business for them.
Where there is much freight accumu-
lating the carrying agents always come
for II. That is their trade. The Ameri-
can pioneers in their progress West
raised crops and waited for the railroad.
Eastern Kansas was farming region
fifteen years before railroad came;
and it did not have much of local
market in the meantime. California,
with one man to the square mile, grew
things and waited nearly twenty years
after lS49 for the cars to come and
when the promise of business grew
bright enough the freight trains arrived.
Everywhere in the United States PRO
DUCTION HAS PRECEDED MAR
KETS AND CARRYING AGENTS.
When the sugar industry began in Ha-
wall there was "A small market and
meagre tansportation-one steamer a
month and "A few sailing vessels. But
commerce expanded to meet the de-
mands upon II and the market widened.
1t always has been so and always Will
be so.
III. There are about $4,000 acres of
public land left on oahu alone. Nearly
every acre of it is more susceptible than
the soil of the inter-mountain Western
States which Uncle Sam is populatius
as fast as he can. Leases on this land
are all the time expiring and this
paper contends, with the assent of
every practical farmer IN the Territory,
that something better can be done
with the available soil than To lease

pccted Home Rulers and undoubted
.Ncnlawags. beaded by the notorious
Kumalae These men were voted FOR
by Republicans who would not have
trusted one Of them, privately, with a
pound OF cheese The voting was done
under the party lash. To elect them
the organization did its best and the
Bulletin, In It's effort to attach print
ing graft, commended them as loyal
and capable men whom 1t would be
treachery to defeat. That paper was
particularly solicitous for the election
OF Kumalae.
After the experience with that scan
dalous Legislature the feeling against
electing another one like II was gem
eral. But time softens good Intentions
az well as asperities and now we have
a Republican House ticket which por-
tends, in the larger part of its per-
sonnet, worse things than its predeces-
sor. The Maui ticket, with Coelho,
Nakuina-who was making bitter
Home Rule speeches two years ago
Haia, Kalino, Pail, ct al, Is so rank
that 1t impests the off-shore breeze.
Elsewhere, there are nominees to kill
in the interests of public decency;
while here in the Fifth District Is an
aggregation of cheap incompetency
which ought, in all conscience, to make
even the old Seventh precinct blush.
Every man who looks al the list knows
that it means another Solid Thirteen
standing on a platform of Addition, Di
vision and Silence.
Yet it is Republican and good citi
zens and taxpayers, WHOSE MONEY
Is AT STAKE, are Expected to support
it. But perhaps we are in error. Per-
haps, as with the Solid Thirteen two
years ago, 1t is only Republican in
name and Home Rule and anti-haole
at heart. If so, what are the bounden
duties of citizens and taxpayers, pro-
viding that a better choice is afford
ed? Are they to vote against their own
interests, vote to have money squan-
dered and laws mixed up, to have the
good name of the Territory besmirch
ed again, simply because gang of
tax -eaters has temporarily taken on
Republican disguise?
Such question need not be answer
ed now. 1t may be safely left to men
who, over and over again, have eX-
pressed their detestation of such a
Legislature as was last elected under
the Republican fiag-a Legislature
which only stopped stealing when, as
at the special session, there was moth
ing left to steal but registered war;
rants.

est in small farming on these Islands,
you should at least study carefully in
