The troubles of tho English war office serve to show what n small amount of provocation the critics of our War De partment had. I'uitn Rico may and indeed has Its troubles, hut the citizens of that Island arc glad that they do not live cither in Kentucky or Nebraska. The evening contemporary laboring under the delusion that tho Governor npoplnts the commlsslouerof labor will do well to poruso tho Territorial law n little more closely. Minister Youn gls to bo congratulat ed on the prompt business llko manner In which he is taking up tho public work for which the Council of State provided ample funds. With Mr. Young's business administration there is no blockading of the purpose of legislative activity by dilatory tactics. Not the least of tho blessings, con ferred upon tho community by Mr. Young's activity Is his securing the expenditure of $10,000 a month for Ho nolulu BtreetH. Hoad Supervisor Camp bell may be depended upon to place our streets In condition to once more glvo prominent mention from taxpayers ana tourists. The official organ blandly admits that It prefers a $75 Jot) to a fair mind ed administration by tho Executive Council. For an additional 25 tho Advertiser would doubtless como out under tho colors of the Democracy for whoso success it has devoted much space by seeking through misrepresen tation to knlfo tho Republican parly at Its Inception. It Is really amusing to note the hope ful spirit in which some, of our good citizens cling to tho old "Our Party" Idea. It will not bo surprising after tho Republican and Democratic par ties nre organized to have Our Party, which arrogates to itself all tho "Intel ligence" of tho Territory organizing a "peace club" "for good government" and the usual spoils from the winner. With straight American parties In full swing when Hawaii's first elec tions occur tho chances of corruption or Incompetent men being put to tho front Is reduced to a minimum. The progressive citizens of tho Territory will carry out tho spirit of annexation to Its least and most complcto detail. Those, who want to hang on to past politics are free to do so and become political noncnltles. Progress, as Interpreted by the his tory of tho last two years, will bo a slow coach when compared with tho soli., development and universal pros perity that will mako memorable tuo first years of tho Territory. Republi can prosperity makes mighty poor working material for tho Democrats, but thcro Is always honest admiration to tho men whoso loyalty to party principle lends them to mako tho fight, though defeat at tho polls Is assured. How's this for expansion? Last year, 1899, tho exports of American farm products and manufactures to Cu ba, Porto Rico, Hawaiian, Phlllpplno and Samoan Islands Increased by moro than 100 per cent. Desldcs this, near ly $0,000,000 worth of American flour went to tho Orient last year, nn in crease of $2,000,000 slnco 1898, most of It for China, Japan, and Asiatic Rus sia. Undo Sam has two good stepping stones to Oriental trado, ono at Hono lulu nnd tho other nt Manila. If tho group of anniversary celebra tions Is to bo followed with two elec tions during tho present year, Hawaii will have no necessity for rain maklnc experiments, nor will there bo any lack of excitement. Chances favor that tho first election will bo as good a show to attract tourist traffic as a four ringed circus. Certainly tho peoplo cannot bo taken to task If after having been Indifferent to politics for six years, they let looso with a friendly enthusi asm that will putstlrrlngeventB of past history la tho shade. VOTERS SHOULD ACT NOW. In view of tho fact thnt certain ele ments In the local political field aro at their happiest when condemning Amer ican politics as corrupt and parties as organizations to bo shunned, It is not Btrango that Hawaiian citizens unac quainted with tho facts of American government nro disposed 'to play n waiting gamo and hesitate, to take up political work on straight American lines. Almost without exception thoso charging American parties with being hotbeds of corruption nnd machine rule aro prominent among theoretical Jobbers who sneer nt patriotism and can accept no opinions but their own. Appreciating that thoy cannot get votes they condemn with great eclat the foundation principles of tho nation nnd tho majority who support them nnd upon whom tho nation depenrs in Its hour of need. Hawaiian citizens entering upon tho privileges nnd responsibility of Ameri can citizenship havo their future poli tical fato In their own hands. They havo to dccldo whether they will ncccpt the misleading say so of pessimistic thcorlzers or will Immediately exercise I their full rights, and boldly, honestly nnd nctlvely ally themselves with tho American parties and mako their fight for popular government upon Ameri can lines. Leaders represent the volco of tho majority. Citizens of this Ter ritory who nro standing back, because they do not know American politics, while tho parties or forming aro merely losing their best opportunity to shnpo party principle and political nctlon nnd placing popular leaders nt the front. Dy withholding now, voters nro playing Into tho hands of men who will lose no opportunity to re strict tho finnchlse nnd force class legislation upon tho Territory. They arc also lessening their influence In the counsels of tho national Congress, cast ing their voting power to tho winds where their enemies would like to see it go. Mugwumps may howl as they plcaso that citizens of tho Territory have nothing to do with the national parties or polities, the fact remains that the citizens of Hawaii cannot reform or Improve national politics of the Ameri can people. If our peoplo deslro to exert nny influenco for tho furtherance of tho best Interests of iho Territory they must act through and with the American parties formed on Amcrlcnn methods. Selfish Interests of tho Terri tory, loyalty to tho party that gavo the peoplo manhood suffrage demand that every voters of this city shall attend tho primaries, nnd attending shall voto for thoso men In whoso broad minded Integrity tho pooplo from the waterfront to TantaluB, Diamond Head to Darbcr's Point, havo confidence.
