C. N. SPENCER, Minister of the Interior. Interior Oflicc, Jan. 7, 1892. 314 4t j. j -. Pledged to neither Sect nor Party, But established for the benefit of all. SATURDAY, JAN. 9, 1892. All who would like to sec a free library and reading room in Hono lulu are told by Mr. Cartwright in this paper how the end may be ac complished. A short time ago the Bulletin contained an item that the Reform party had held a meeting in a down town oflicc. Two or three days later a member of the building committee of Central Union Church told the editor that his paper had mistaken a meeting of that committee for a poli tical meeting. The gentleman thought it a good joke on the paper, and the editor acknowledged the corn but forgot to do so in the paper. Now that a coriespondent of the Adver tiser has used the erroneous item to point an argument, it is only proper to set the public right on the matter. THE TRIBUNE AND THE TREATY. An article from the New Yoi k Tri bune is reprinted in this issue. Its writer shows he is at sea in regaid to tho histoiy of recent treaty negotia tions between the United States and Hawaii. The treaty that was drop ped by the Hawaiian Government did not meet that fate on account of any commercial concessions it con tained from Hawaii to the United States. It aroused opposition to it self b' a proposed clause to empower the United States to land troops here at the request of any Cabinet that might be in power. Then all this happened in tbo reign of the late King. If there was any blame in the matter the present "Queen and her Ministers" were not the proper objects of the "discipline" that the Tribune says was necessary to con vince them "that tho Islands were commercial dependencies of the United States." Tho "discipline" was in fact applied, by the passage of the sugar clauses of the McKinley Act, long before the Queen began her reign. There is one statement in the Tribune's article, however, which should bo food for reflection to those people here who have been unceasing in lamentations over the failure of the proposed treaty, they agreeing with tho Tribune that 'this Government deserved to have been disciplined sharply by the United States for re jecting tho measu o. That is, where tho Tribune refers to what it calls the "demand" carried to Washing. ton, by our present representative there, Dr. Smith. This so-called de mand is "that the planters should shure in the benefits of the direct bounty system, now applied to all sugar-producers in thVunitcd States." The Tribune says, "This was a con cession which could only have accow- panted nnncxnllon, ami that was at least premature." Here the Tribune confirms the argument of those hero who opposed the treaty in ques tion, an argument whtch may bo summaiizcd as follows: 1. Tho United Stales will never grant boun ties to any foreign products. 2. It would be foolish for this country ( to grant cxlra-territonat control as a concession in advance in return for a. favor that will never be granted. 3. Even if granted Hie favor is liable to bo abolished at any moment by United States llscat legislation, as the Supreme Court of thai country had decided that no treaty could stand in the way of the expressed will of tho people through Congress the later expression, whether by treaty or domestic law, over-riding anything inconsistent therewith in the earlier deliverance, just as the latest legis lation on any subject in this country over-rules all laws previously enact ed on the same subject if there be any conllict in construction. Accord ing to the Tribune, which is one of the leading organs of American pub lic opinion, we eannot have bounties from the United States apart from annexation, and that is "at least premature." If we cannot now we could not then, and if bou'ntios to Hawaiian sugar had been an indis pensable condition of the McKinley Act, that measure would never have become a part of American legisla tion. FREE LIBRARY AND READING ROOM. Editor Bullutin: A week or more ftgo a communica tion appeared in your columns strongly advocating the establish ment of an institution of the above named kind at public or government expense. Should tho p.oplc ol this country as represented in the Legis lature approve of such a project, the means for carrying the same iulo ef fect are at hand and would not re quiic any heavy expense. The Library and Reading Room Associa tion on the corner of Hotel and Ala kea streets has been in operation over twelve years, and has always looked forward hopefully to a time when its means would allow of its being made free. It owns a hand some and convenient building, which with the ground on which it stands is free from debt. This building contains a well assorted library of some ten thousand volumes, also a well equipped and liberally supplied reading room. The association has recently bought and paid tor the lot in the lear of the present structure, extending one hundred and nine feet on Alakea street. Ample space for future ex pansion is thus provided for. The institution is well organized, has an excellent librarian and can be made entirely free whenever the government or private individuals see fit to put up the necessary coin per annum to pay current expenses. It would be a waste of both energy and money to start another institu tion of a similar kind in a place of the size of Honolulu, with the idea of making it free, when better re sults can be obtained and at a frac tion of the cost through an organiza tion already existing and well estab lished. To properly organize, cata logue, care for and run a general re ference and circulating library of even five to ten thousand volumes requires an amount of time and of laborious, painstaking effort which those who have not undertaken such a work have very little idea of. Al.L'X. J. Caktwuigiit, President Honolulu Library & Read ing Room Association. Honolulu, Jan. 9, 1892. EDISON'S PHONOGRAPH. Mr. Slocclde's exhibition of Edi tion's improved phonograph at Y. M. (J. A. hall last night was fairly pat ronized. Mrs. E. Gray played an overture on the piano with her accus tomed ability, and in the course of the program accompanied Prof. Ord way in some fine selections on tho mandolin and banjo. The opening speech given to tho machine by Mr. E. Godfrey and the dozen songs rendered by the phono giaph were quite distinct to those in the f ion t of the hail. A number of boys spoiled tho exhibition to a large extent by noisy movements of their feet and loud talking. They should have been ejected. One of tho most amusing songs was "Barnyard Voices," by the famous minstiel, Billy Emerson, with banjo accom paniment. The entertainment was much enjoyed, every number being heartily applauded. MR. W. G. ASHLEY. Ewron Uuixktin: The editor of Ka Leo had belter know that there are those amongst tho supporters of the Liberals, who take rather u different view of Mr. Ashley and find no dillieulty in be lieving Unit mechanics and working men would have had a great cham pion in their cause if it was their good fortune to 6ee Mr. Ashley elected, no matter on what ticket. Ho would bo the same in the Legis lature as he is in business life, u luiiu of the people, trusted and loved by the masses regardless of nationality. It is a matter of great regret amongst tho masses that Mr. Ashley has decided not to run, Liukkai.. Honolulu, Jan. 0, 1892. THE WORKINGMAN'6 PAPER "The Dally tfullelin," 50 ceutp per month.
