ASSTaER FAILURE.

Failure OF the Mexican American commission to
reach an agreement for joint action by the United
states and the carranza governments is surprise.
The pomp0us .firAt chief has shown consistently
since the Villa raid on Columbus that he will not
work with the United States. &C.
As early as December % II was apparent that the
commission would end in failure. The announce
nent OF its dissolution last night in New York sim,
ply marks another chapter in the frutless efforts OF
the present administEtion to solve the Mexican
problem. And while Carranza is haggling over
protocols and agreehents, Villa is growing more and
more powerful and half dozen lesser reyolutionists
are starting each his separate revolt.
1t was The apathy and indifference of the Car.
rama forces whfh -baiked the punitive expedition
at a time 1hen Pefshings men were on the heels of
the outlawsehief. And it was treacherous attack
on Capt. BSyds detachment at carrizal which show
ed enthusiastically that Carranza prefer to LET North
ern Mexic0be oyerrun with ragged thieves and raid
ers rather Than that the United States ,ould clean
up the mes with which he Is unable to cope.
High military officers for months have contended
that as a pure niiitary move the Persiiing column
should be withdrawn. b It is now infimated that
Carranza Is to be given 'ast chance, our soldiers
10 be withdf9Mn and the problem Of policing the
border and safeguarding foreigners in and near Mex
leo left in tie hands Of the afirst chief"
But Carranza has been given many other "last
chances Without select There is no hope in Civ
ing him andther.1

WHERE THERE'S A WILL"

/ Sharp rises in the price of virtually every food
staple and almost every other factor of living cost
have hit Honolulu, in common with other American
cities Nearly every private business concern, eth
er by salary raises bonuses special distributions
of money has recognized in the treatment Of its
pioyes the fact that it costs much to live now
than two or three years ago,a great deaf more than
five and ten years ago. ~ 5 , .F T.
Raises by the supervisors of the salaries paid
municipal employees are probably justified. The
raises are slight in most cases, though before the
board gets through it will have added considerably
to the overhead of running the city govern
Iment Few taxpayers begrudge increases of five or
fen dollars to faithful employees. Il.
The point may we'll be noted, however, that the
raises are made at time when the board has de-
clared itself absolutely unable to continue with the
appropriation to the Hawaii Promotion Committee.
The fact that the supervisors able to boost sal
aries in slight degree will convince most peo
pie that the $3.50 monthly contribution to the Pro
motion Committee can be continued if the super
vis0rs are of mind to continue it.

SEATTLE Is READY.
From the Seattle postIntelligencer

Frccn the Seattle PostInteligencer.
The growth Of the sugar industry in Hawaii just
now adding much to the island wealth, is bringing
some new problems to the planters and to the com
mereial interests involved.
There is shortage of labor in the islands and
wages have gone far beyond tn" old limits, but this
has operated to improve the laborers condition and
toSinduce him to become a homeowner and to be-
come more interested in the community
affairs. Planters generally lettering the condi
tions Of employees, and labor.saying machinery is
making up in some measure for the scarcity of help
The most important issue before the sugar inter
ests is the matter of transportation of the product
TO the mainland and to the Atlantic seabOard
Says the Honolulu Star: Bulletin:
THE time seems ripe for a determined graphic with
this problem Hawaii should be put beyond the uncer
families Of contracts with alien line whose interests
are separable from the terrtorys interests Until the
OF large affairs in Hawaii have solved this prob
lem. until Hawaii capital controls only the pre-
duction but the shipment OF sugar, Hawaii will not be
master OF its destiny"
Hawaiian sugar has lately found an outlet
through the Seattle gateway, and thence by rail to
the distributing points. 1t is hoped to build up a
permanent sugar trade to this port.
For some years, perhaps, transportation from the
islands to the Atlantic seaboard by the canal will
be difficult enterprise, because of the scarcity of
ships and the more lucrative business on other sea
routes. In the meantime Hawaii will find Seattle
willing and eager to develop and encourage mutual
trade relations in all lines, and particularly in
sugar !
