that purpose. A few of them obtain

are unable so to do. Some may ask,
"Why do they not rc-contract?" Doubt
less because they hope soon to be sent

strange land, they are homesick. They
sxy that the answer to their requests to

Minister Gulick for the present deplor

on the new reservoirs might be pub

few bonds if they wctesure the money

works that would insure a water supply
for Honolulu.
The action of the government in the
matter of the passage money for Japan
ese women is scarcely ingenious. The
general public certainly believed that
the government would pay the passage
of Japanese women as they had paid
those of PortURuese women. Why
should it not? " Immigration of popu

Therefore the appropriation. A (cw of
the pbntcrs had written agreements to
pay the passage for men only. They
were in luck.

our meaning.
In there too much mmty in this
rmmtiy e We my no. Hut there is
too much of the wrong kind nnd too
little of the tight kind. The right kind
of monry is that which is legal tender ;
which tiny man, merchant,- banker,
nu'diRnic or smull trader, may take
without fent of depreciation ; which
even n laborer will not nccil to
be forced to take under fear of di's
charge for refusal ; nnd which will pass
without loss in the United States in
well ns here. The objection to silver
Is not ngainst its bulk but because it is
non lawful money. Whether it is in
the treasury or out of it ; circulated
as coin or in form of n certificate, it is
still silver, uueurrent in the United
States, and current here as a legal ten
der only. We have seen that the law
providing for the redemption of the
silver certificates in gold is disregarded
by the government.
Those who say there is not too much
silver, nnd that it is necessary to base
a large amount of silver for general use,
seem to forget that the silver in the
treasury is represented by certificates
for $30, $50, $100 and $500, which
are certainly not in convenient form
for mechanics, laborers, small traders
and house-keepers to have their money
in, however well these denominations
may suit merchants nnd bankcrn.
Would not gold in $30, $to, $5 and
$3.50 pieces be quite as convenient
for general use in town anil country;
or, if it formed the basis or security for
certificates would the latter be received
with fear nnd trembling ?
In England, Krancc, Germany, the
United States and the British Colonics
much the larger part of the coin used
is legal tender for any sum, while here
it is just the reverse ; nnd that is the
cause of the anxiety and trouble. Were
our silver mostly the standard dollar of
the United States, which is a full legal
tender in that country where the largest
part of ' o business is done and
whence the largest part of our remit
tances go, nnd (was there no danger
that silver dollars in the United States
will decline in value;) that currency
would protect us against high exchange,
would not be sent to China and would
give us no trouble. Whereas, to make
Hawaiian silver coin a legal tender for
large sums would put us into the hands
of a few drawers of exchange or expor
ters of our principal products that is,
where we were six months ago.
a
The amount of Hawaiian silver coin
needed is just that amount which
people will take from choice and with
out fear, and that may be half a mil
lion, more or less. We can easily un
derstand that a banker would not be
willing to take in a large amount, for
collections or on deposit, in' non-legal
tender or irredeemable money, and
make himself liable to pay on demand
in money which was legal tender and
which might be scarce at the time.
We have seen on one side the men
in authority who arc law makers, and
w ho hav c sw orn to obey the constitution
and laws, breaking a good law.partly of
their own making, apparently without
compunction ; putting on defiant airs ;
abusing those who have a much greater
interest in the business and prosperity
of the country than they. And we have
seen on the other side the merchants
and the honestly intelligent of all classes
trying to carry out the jaw. Is there
any thing like it in any civilized country
in the world ?

certificates with only silver back of
them. The law said that these silver
certificates should be cancelled so soon
as redeemed, And that the new cer
tificates issued should have cold back
of them. Therefore, every dollar of
certificate money re-issued bellied to
reduce the value of the certificates re
maining." "Well?" "Why, of course,
so soon as the chamber of commerce
detected the little game it very properly
put its foot down, and declined to re
ceive certificates."
The facts of the matter are very
simple. The nation was convinced
that as a large purchaser of foreign
commodities it ought to have for its
standard a currency current nt par in
the chief foreign countries with which
it dealt. American gold was par excel
lence that coinage. To that proposi
tion there were very few dissenting
voices. Of those dissenting voices
King Kalakaua's wns one. He did not
object directly but it came to be under
stood that it would please his majesty
to have a coinage impressed with his
own image. Three years ago the coin
nee law passed. It provided for a coin-
auc of cold and silver. The framers of
that law douotless pelievcu ruai me
two milions (provided to be of eold and
silver) would serve for the inter-island
and nome tramc or tucKinguom, wouiu
not be exported and would buy ex
change at par. If the cold had been
coined first and four fifths of the whole
had been cold some of their anticipa
tions might have been realized, Hut
no. The terms of the coinage act were
icnored. 1 he bad odor of the ndven
Hirers whom the kinc had made his
advisers prevented the negotiation of
bonds, there were no government
funds wherewith to carry on the
coinage at the government's own
profit. A foreign capitalist was allowed
to coin a million of silver which cost
him say $850,000; and, for part of it,
was given interest bearing bonds, pay
able, principal and interest, .' gold;
and was permitted to import the rest
of his depreciated silver coin, free of
duty, ana torce 11 iniu cirmuiiuii,
through the thousand and one channels
open to him, at par.
There is more of this story. The
statistical part of it has never been fully
told."
. P. S. The Advertiser of last Satur
day contained an elaborate attack
upon Bishop & Co. We shall expose
some of the falsehoods and perhaps
show the animus of the attack later.
Hut the meanest and most venemous
falsehood of the two articles ought
to be shown up now. The Advertiser
charges that Uishop & Co., having
contracted to furnish the government
$210,000 in gold, paid them $100,000
in gold and $no,ooo in treasury certi
ficates, thereby redeeming the $tio,-
000 and kecpine the gold. The
Advertiser does not explain that
Hishop & Co. were not the owners of
those notes ; that they acted as agents
for clients; that the transaction bad
the full sanction of the government;
and that, by so doing, the government
was, immediately, $70,000 better off
as, if Bishop & Co. had not cashed
that $110,000 worth of certificates,
there would have been $180,000 worth
of certificates presented at that time.
N. H. We challenge the govern
ment to give the names of those for
whom certificates have been redeemed
since December 1st, the amounts re
deemed and the dates. We think the
showinc will be an interesting one

present herewith what I know of the cur
rency affairs of this kingdom duung the
past eighteen months, to the best of my
recollection so lar as l nave occn con
cerned in them ; and, where other per
sons are named, upon the best informs
tion obtainable :
In its treatment of this subject it
seemed sufficient for the ministerial
organ to fix the initial point at a time
just before the passage ol the Currency
Act of 1884, when a small " numb" of
patriots were exacting eight per centum
for exchange." The history of this matter
would be more complete, and far more
damaging to the reputation of the min
is'.ers. if we date it back to the time
isters, it we date It back to tne
when a thrifty arrangement was entered

when other "patriots weic imikltig a

IT
unanimous consent of both sets of "pat
otV'it was decided tomaKC United States
gold coins the legal tender for all suiiis
over ten dollars In amount. The pres
ent mlulstiy controlled the assembly
and consequently controlled the net ns
it passed Its several readings, and It ii
" pleading the baby net" to say that the
law w ns cunningly or bunglingly devised
to make trouble for the mimvtry. The.
act was carefully icvhcd in committee
under ministerial supervision and
carefully considered outside of the com
mittee by men who had far greater In
terests nt stake than nny of the min
isters; nnd we say without hesitation
that If Its provisions had been adhered
to, our finances would now be upon n
sound basis and working without fric
tion. The first violation of the provisions
of the currency net by the ministers
was the action which placed the sale of
all the uueurrent silver coins in the
treasury in the hands of the other
"patriots," when the fifth section of
the net provides that tenders should he
for "lots of not more than $50,000
each ;" and I have the best nuthority
for saving that this course was pursued
in spile of the advice of the auditor-
general.
Violation of law number two,
The chamber of commerce, believing
the ministers honestly bent upon carry
ing out the law, and wishing to assist
in bridging over the time that must
nccessarilv be consumed in converting
the redundant ciiculation of silver
coins, passed its resolution of Novem
ber 29th, by which its members agreed
to receive and pay the certificates of
deposit of the treasury, then in circula
tion, as the equivalent of gold section
8 of the law providing for their re
demption in United States gold coin.
The ministers failing to take steps
for the conversion ortiny part of the
coins introduced f Mr. Spreckels and
his " co-patriots," the chamber of com
merce passed a resolution urging im
mediate action, which was met by the
ministers with a statement that the
matter would have attention when, in
their judgment, it was necessary.
Exchange being scarce, persons hold
ing $180,000 in certificates of deposit
had decided to demand their redemp
tion in gold coin from the special
deposits, to be used for purposes of
remittance to San Francisco. Messrs.
Bishop & Co. were holding a large
sum in the treasury certificates, but
declined to demand their redemption,
believing it to be sound public policy
to Keep tne ccriuicaics in circmauun
To meet the extraordinary demand for
exchange Messrs. iiisliop Uo. ai.d
other "patriots" were drawing largely
against their credit.
Messrs. Bishop & Co. having joined
Messrs. Irwin & Co. in the shipmest
of the mixed or uncurrent silver coins
Irom the treasury, having given them
their certificate of deposit for $210,-
ooo. payable on demand, which certifi
cate was transferred to the minister of
finance, and having arranged with the
parties holding $180,000 in certificates
to furnish them with exchange, thereby
preventing a demand upon the treasury
to that amount, arranged with the
registrar of public accounts to retain
the gold for $tto,ooo out of the $2to,
000. Messrs. Bishop & Co. then paid
to the registrar $110,000 in certi
ficates, and sent the remainder, $100,
ooo in United States gold to the
treasury. On the 4th of December, as
arranged, they delivered the certificates
to the registrar at the bank and sent the
gold to the treasury. By this inter
vention $70,000 was at that time saved
to the special deposits, and thereby
kept from going out of the country.
This was a direct effort to assist the
working of the new law by keeping
gold in the country.
the violation ol the agreement to
deliver $210,000 to the treasury was
purely a technical one. '1 o charge bad
faith on he pait of Bishop & Co. is
disingenuous, to say the least.
As the ministers still held to a policy
of masterly inactivity in the matter of the
conversion of Mr. Spreckels' silver coin
age,thecertificatcsofdcposit were passed
from hand to Hand with no little anxi
ety. To allay this feeling the min
isters placed in the special deposits a
sum equal to 14 per cent, of the silver
coin then held against the certificates
$183,000 and this tended to allay
the anxiety of holders of the certificates
for a time although it was known that
14 per cent, was an insufficient margin.
This action was a violation of
section 8 of the currency act,and also of
the appropriation act, for the law speci
ally provided for "the expense, cost
and loss incident to the conversion fit
silver coins into the gold coins of the
United States,'" not for a margin to
make the silver coins the equivalent of
United States coins.
Violation oflaui number three.
About this time the chamber of com
merce met and appointed a. committee
to wait upon the ministers and urge
upon them the necessity of taking
steps at once for the conversion of
silver into gold The result of the con
ference was that the ministers asked
that Bishop & Co. make a proposition to
the minister of finance for the conver
sion of a portion of the silver coinage.

The committee of the chamber of
commerce weic convinced that the feel
ing of the ministers toward Hishop &
Co. precluded nny possibility of nny
arrangement being effected,
Persons needing gold for business
were now compelled to nsk for the re
demption of certificates and soon the
balance of gold In the special deposits
grew smalleraiidamallcrrind still thcinin
fsters took 110 steps t ) replenish the de
posits with the much needed gold ; but
with colossal stupidity closed the only
channel through which they could hope
to receive it, liy accepting silver coin
for duties, taxes and other government
dues ; the acceptance of dutici in silver
being in violation of solemn treaty stipu
lations. Violation of law number four:
This action naturally alarmed
the holders of certificates nnd demands
fur gold grew more clamorous ; but
Hishop & Co. drew comparatively little
of it. The ministers can prove the
truth of this assertion by publishing
its list ot those who drew the gold, and
if they do so I promise the public a
startling revelation of who the conspira
tors were, about whom the ministerial
organ prates with so much indignation.
lo add to the confusion that now
reigned it was openly stated that the
registrar of public accounts, acting un
der instructions, had not cancelled the
redeemed certificates, although section
8, of the currency act says "All silver
certificates so redeemed shall be can
celled by the registrar of public ac
counts. Moreover, It was said that
the silver collected for government dues
was placed in the special deposits nnd
the redeemed certificates re-issued.
This was hardly accepted for truth as
the attorney-general had promised the
committee of the chamber of comme'rec
that the certificates should be cancelled,
when the chairman of the committee
said to the minister that, the redeemed
and uncancelled certificates then in the
treasury were a standing menace to the
community.
When ft was ascertained that the
gold against $584,000 of certificates
was reduced to $90,000 of which
$30,000 was pledged for coupons on
government bonds at! the margin on
the silver in the special deposits was
cqtA to less than 0 per cent., it was
considered time for the chamber of
commerce to act, and ,1 committee of
two Messrs. A. J, Cartwnght and the
Hon. H. A. Widcmann were appointed
to ascertain authoritatively what the
condition of the special deposits was.
After a conference with the registrar of
public accounts, the minister of finance
not ucing round, the committee re
ported to the chamber that the registrar
of public accounts bad unhesitat
ingly stated that $75,000 in certificates
had been re-issued and that a balance of
$38,000 in certificates was still uncan
celled. Violation of taw number five.
Upon this report the chamber of
commerce, by a unanimous vote, re
scinded its resolution of November
29th, and its members were absolved
from obligation to receive and pay the
treasury certificates of deposit as the
equivalent of United States gold coin.
During the past week the treasury has
not only declined to redeem the certifi
cates in United States gold coin, as the
law demands, but Ins also declined to
redeem them in silver coin.
Violation of law number six.
And now in the face of all this
unmasked rascality the ministers are
posing as the victims of a conspiracy,

(Frsm Weimtiay't Guide.)
It is well known to the thinking por
tion of the community that a dreadful
conspiracy has been conceded by the
members of the Honolulu Chamber of
Commerce, the object of the nefarious
conspiracy being the humilation of the

ment and the plundering of the Ha
waiian people. Vj print below the
names of the treasonable and unreason
able men who seem to be responsible
for this foul crime : 1). F. Dillingham,

Mi, Carter dispoiei of the Adv er

writes ns If gold was altogether nn ex
ceptional commodity which I'm sure
is not what he means and condones
the mistake the (.hamber of rommcu-'c
made, in aiding nnd abetting the gov
ernment to make the law a dead letter
lit the matter of silver certificates. I
did expect some nction on the part of
the gentlemen who Interposed to pre
vent the sale of Hawaiian bonds for
silver; but, perhaps, I underestimate
the Illegality of that attempt,

Pull together, patriots of both sets, with
all your power of brain nnd muscle;
give your lungs a rest, and haul the
ship or state over the bar. If she is
over-freighted with rotten shares and
semi-insolvent companies, lighten her,
in Hawaii's name, and bring her into
harbor. " X. Y.
Honolulu, February 18, 1885.
Thc above communication is an in
teresting one. Wc agree with the writer
that economy anu retrenchment are
vital to thc-continucd prosperity of this
nation. Hut we think, if the govern
ment will carry out the provisions of
the gold law, honestly, that wc cm have
gold here; for nil our necdr .vlicthcr
the balance of trade be against us or no.
As Messrs. Irwin & Co. arc paying
the wages of attisans and laborers on
all the estates they arc agents for in
silver, and arc known to have drawn
heavily in gold from the special de
posits, is it unreasonable to suppose
they are committing the sinful act of
hoarding gold ? Attorney General
Neumann, whether lie is or i-s not, is
spoken of on the street as Irwin & Con
adviser. Perhaps he will tell us whether
it is any less wrong for that firm to
" hoard" gold than for any other firm
to do so.
We put up one of the financial prob
lems of the day in this wise : Mr.
Claus Sprcckels has ordered his bouse
here to draw upon his house in San
Francisco at Go-days sight, the drafts
to be paid for in gold, Hawaiian Treas
ury certificates or his silver. The lat
ter coin he pays to the horny-handed
sons of toil upon his estates. The cer
tificates he will have the gentle Shep
herd of Lanai redeem in gold that no
one else can obtain. The gold he will
do with as it pleases him. And for alt
this magnanimity the thrifty Claus will
take the equivalent of t , per cent, per
dollar. Verily, Sir Claus, we are com
pelled to admire thy perspicacity.
The meekest editorial that, to our
recollection, has ever appeared In the
Advertiser, is the reply to Mr. J. O.
Carter's letter published in this paper
last Tuesday. Six distinct violations
of law were set forth in the letter and
the reply in the Advertiser skips them
all and takes up the matter of drafts of
gold from the special deposits. A list
of the amounts of such drafts was kept,
and a little furbishing up of memory
will supply the names of those making
the drafts that is, if the government Is
willing. We venture the assertion,
upon the word of a prominent official,
that Messrs. Irwin & Co. have, drawn
dollar for dollar of gold that Bishop &
Co. and the corporation ot C. T3rewer&
Co. have. We know that-our authority
is not the best the country affords, but
we have taken the chance that even
high officials are permitted to tell the
truth at times. Perhaps the Adver
tiser can coax the " premire" lo have
published that list which Mr, Carter
challenged it to produce.
The Hawaiian of last night says it
is authorized to state that the Hawaiian
treasury has not refused to cash its cer
tificates in silver. We shall answer the
Hawaiian by affidavit.

Honolulu, Februray 19, 1885.
I, Edwin A. Jones, declare and say :
That on Saturday, February 14, 1885,
I went to the Government House, to
collect a bill for my employers, Messrs.
Lewers & Cooke, that I received a
draft from the Interior Department
upon the Finance Department for
$184.64, that I presented the draft for
payment to .Mr. r, b. Pratt, Registrar
of Public Accounts, asking him to pay
me in gold coin, which he declined lo
do, that I asked him what he could
pay me in, that he (Pratt) replied in
silver or certificates, that I replied I
would take silver as we could use it in
paying our men off, that he (Pratt) paid
mc in certificates, that I then said to
him can't you give me silver ? that he
(Pratt) replied we are not paying out
silver from special deposits, we are
taking it In, you can set the certificates
changed in town, there is plenty of
stiver in town 1

make out that some 40,000 persons In
till kingdom can nclllicr read nor
wilte, The farts sic that fully Ho pr

(lie fact that when the returns came In
a large number did not specify whether

were all chmed .11 Illiterate, The de
