Editorial Rooms, 10U. 1 Postoffice Box, 404, WEDNESDAY, JAN. 4, 1899. Annexation by resolution is giving tho lawyers plenty of work anyway. Ealiuku is now the western terminus of the American railway system. "When tho Davis contempt caso is finally ended thoro will bo no further question about the law in Biioh cases. Business men of tho territory nro recoiviug daily examples of the necessity for prompt action in onlarging tho harbor facilities. j Tho Hawaiian Choral Club is , an organization that centralizes multitudinous benefits aud har bors no evils. May it live loug and prosper. I Insurgents in tho islands of tho Philippines will soon havo rea- son to know that Ucclo Sam did not sond troops to tho Orient for moroly a pleasure trip. When the Sugar Trust gets into a fight that moans loss of millions of dollars, tho peoplo can look on and smile. But there is always tho feeling that the consumer will havo to pay the prico in tho long run. Tho author Hull Caino, who was not vory pleasantly mentioned during his trip through the States, returns to England to say some yory complimentary things of tho American peoplo, Tho ri'cs now wish they had kopt quiet. Tho roport of tho Commission shows that tho Hawaiian Govern -ment still has a claim of $0018 against tho Japanese steamship EinaiMaru. This is tho steamer on which a bottomry bond was taken in April, 1897. Better put this down to profit and loss, prin cipally loss. Considerable rivalry has started up among souio of the cities of the Pacific Const to obtain continental end of the Pacific Cable. Tho Advertiser might sond them some of its advice that as the cablo is not in existence thero is no use talking about it. How it would amuse Americans. Judge Fraar aud Senator Mor gan in thoir report to tho Com mission on the subject of cables Bay: "A central cablo station in Hawaii will ultimately form a plexus of telegraphio linos in which tho cablo3 will meet from all ports of the great circuits of our coaet." In othor words Ha waii will bo the solar plexus of the United Strifes. Tho prompt endorsement of President MoKinloy's Atlanta speech by ono of tho leoding Grand Army Posts of tho north addB now forco to tho reunion of tho north and south and tho wiping out of tho sectional bitter ness resulting from tho civil war. It would bo a very appropriate movo for tho local Grand Army Post to follow tho good example. Tho official organ winds up its neutrality defence with a funny Btory as usual. In all its at tempts at serious argument, tho organ of the Hawaiian Exooutivo THE has simply added forco to tho Bulletin's statomout. By a typographical error, intontional or otherwise, tho organ this morn iug plnces tho dato of Mr. Dole's second letter as April 20th in stead of April 30th; wo will allow tho organ tho bonefit of the doubt. No ono has supposed for moment that tho Advortisor cared to discuss Mr. Dolo's attitudo seriously, and it is also known that tho "mattors of record" it has published are incompleto and made incompleto for obvious rea sons. TKAUi: WITH NEW AMIilUCA. Tho British Trado Roviow gives voico in its Decombor issuo to tho very natural conclusion that tho British merchauts cannot view with unalloyed satisfaction tho extension of tho Amorican protec tive systom to the now possessions of tho United Statos, particularly in tho Orient. Ono of tho prin cipal results of the war is positive ouiranco of the United States into tho circlo of great maratimo pow ers. This from a business stand point calls for serious considera tion from Great Britain, which during lato yoars hasdono tho larger part of tho American ocean carry ing trado. "Almost every country in Eu ropo has already felt tho forco of American competition in some do partmeut of, trado; but whilo that is likely to bo continued and pro bably intensified, thero can bo littlo doubt that attention will bo chioily given to tho countries bordoring on tho Pacific, und pro bably most of all to China, which offors so many possiblo lurgo de velopments. "At tho present timo wo hear n great deal about an allianco bo twoen tho United States and Britain, and it is to bo hoped that at least a good understanding wilt bo preserved botweon tho two great English-speaking countries; but at tho samo timo wo must not shut our oyes to tho possible in dustrial and commercial results of the forces which aro in action. "If British merchants and man ufacturers obtain a fair field and rio faVor8t they will bo qu!lo con tent to accopt the results of a friendly struggle If they aro beaten in a fair fight, or on ac count of disadvantageous econo mic conditions, they will accept tho position with eqanimity and consider what their action should be undor tho changing circum stances of tho world; but it is to bo hoped that they will insist, as far as possible, on tho terms of tho contest being as nearly equal as poBsiblo." Thus it is seon at tho very out set that tho diplomatic Anglo Saxon alliance and tho business Anglo- Saxon alliance aro two vory differont propositions. Busi ness mon of England havo never looked with particular favor on the American protectivo systom, and if it is extended over tho Philippines thero will bo strong forco brought to bear to obtain faomo revision which will favor tho British morchant and manufac turer. That tho UnitedStates will throw over comulotoly its protection policy is not to bo supposed for an instance. It is possible, how ovor, that in liou of tho now friendship oxisting botweon tho English speaking nations, tho suggestions and requests from Ureat Britain will rocoivo more earnest consideration than in tho past.

Tho Gaelic took through to Ma nila soveral capitalists bent ou various scuomos. Uno or tlioso mon seemed to bo most Banguino in regard to tho sugar prospects in Manila. Ho chancod to speak with ono of HonoluluB best known business men, a follow passoneer from San Francisco in tho Gaolio, Tho latter gavo a warning in tho following words: "Go easy about invosting money in sugar in tho Philippines. Whoro will you bo when Cuba gets out of chaos again and great sugar plantations spring up all over tho island ? How can you compoto against Cuba sugar with such a vast dif ference of travel against you ? Botter leave it alouo. Go into something olso but leave sugar alone." Although the capitalist had been so sanguino at first, ho changed bis mind and became a convert to tho opinion of the Ho nolulu business man. Ho decid ed to leavo sugar alone. Excelsior Lnilge.
