TUESDAY
MUDSLINGERS AND PIKKHAM.
The snilrchers anil assassins of
chutneter have succeeded In bespat
tering Mr. I'lnkham with not a llt
tlo nuul.
The old henH hae cackled anil laid
a variety of colored eggs nil for the
purpose of destroying public confl
uence in Mr. I'lnkham.
The net result of the whole mlaor
alilc business Is that the majority of
the people throughout that section
of the town known n the business
community are not only Batlbllcd that
the campaign Is one of pure mud and
personal Bpltc, but that Mr. I'lnkham
has made a first-class ofllclal and
should be reappointed.
The attacks on Plnkham's Integ
rity have resulted In an exhibition of
backing and filling that Is ridiculous.
"The Man Who Corrupted Hadle
burg" was not made more, amusing
by Mark Twain than the city moral
ists have made themselves a laugh
ing stock by charging that .Pip kharo.
Is responsible for all tho aIegeiTsln
and the alleged law-breaking, when
they admit that their own lovely
representatives, whose business It is
to enforce tho law, do not enforce 1.
and do not Intend to do as the' le
quest. There Is every, reason to be'1'
tho conservative sentiment of
tne town Is not only out of sympathy
with tho mud-campaigners but ans
confidence In PInkham and will join
with Hllo In urging his reappoint
ment. THE SDGAR MARKET.
The sugar market bids fair to con
tinue In Its present finorablo status,
as far as Hawaii Is concerned.
Reports received by tho latest mall
from the Coast demonstrate Uiat-tbe
experts havo been far f rjitn c orrwt
In estimating the shortage; ufTlrc.CU
ban crop. Karly In the xeaton the
most pesslmlstU' placed the Cuban
crop at 1,200,000 tons. Now they
reduce It to 1,000,000. and there Is
very good prospect that tho flguro
will fall below this by tit least ono
hundred thousand tons.
During the last few days the price
for London beets has been steadily
falling, and n reduction in the prlca
of cane sugars may be expected at
itny time. There Is no danger, how
ever, that the price for cane sugur
will fall below four cents.
The European situation Is un
doubtedly influenced by the planting
for the next crop, Mr. I.lclit report
ed bad weather for planting up to
the middle of March. This condition
may hnvo Improved with Increased
sowings In prospect from the general
high prices. -'
Tho beet sowings of Kurope will
not be finished until well toward tho
middle of May. If the weather con
ditions nro favorable and the sow
ings show a heavy percentage of In
crease, the price will be leveled ac
cordingly. A steady four-cent or four-and-n-quarter
market will be fat better for
these Islands than u further ndvanco
approaching five cents. The presont
figure assures our producers a very
good profit, and a good average or
prices for; next year. "
Look for a reduction In price, but
don't let It worry you.
PEARL HARBOR'S FIRST VICTORY.
The action of the Houso of Repre
sentatives yesterday In passing tho
preliminary appropriation for open
ing Pearl Harbor and establishing n
naval base there comes under the
head of tho greatest and best news
this Territory has received sln.cu the
annexation of the Islands.
The American people havo waked
up.
That Is what the passage of the
bill represents and It means "more to
the country and to these Islands than
can bo expressed In any monetary
figures carried In tho appropriation
bill.
Wo know that, having imule tho
start, delayed for two generations
the American Congress, backed !y
the aggressive common sowo of the
people, will carry forward tho good

The cause of this awakening, so
long postponed nnd now so sudden,
Is tho final realization by the people
at large that Hawaii Is on the map;
that America hag Interests In the
I'.iclflc worth protecting; and If not
protected they will not long bo un
der the rontiul of tho American na
tion. Tho peace-preacheis who urge that
preparations for war shall cease In
order that tho other fellow may be
Inspired to nssumo less warlike pol
icies, have had their day. They are
actuated by the best of motives, but
they lack the practical sense which
tells tho citizen of every country to
day that the mlllcnlum has not ar
rived, war has not vanished from the
list of probabilities, and Internation
al friendships last only so long ns
they satisfy selfish national Inter
ests. - - .

lllf NEW HAWAIIAN ill
I1Y EI.L.A WHEELER WILCOX
From Examiner
The averngo white man who comos
on hla flrst visit to tho Hawaiian Isl
ands, however much he may have
heard of the changca mndo by the
passing ot years, seems to expect an
encounter with the savage conditions
existing In the days of Captain book.
The Polynesians who Inhabited
theiso Islands were never canhlbals;
they wcro never slaves; they were al
ways (at least from the tlmo of tho,
great Ka-mca-mca) organizers nnif
capable rulcis.
Woman was never the subordinate
crcaturo In the Polynesian race which
she has been and is In many other
dark-skinned and savage races.
Tho king's consort nnd tho prin
cesses always commanded great ro-
spect, nnd the reign of many queens
Is recorded.
Yet Infnntlcldo was prevalent hero
among tho lower ranks, costumes
weru uuureviaieu anu lueus ui iuui;ui'
Ity wero not strict; the native dance
tho hula (pronounced ns If "u" were
double "o") was both historic and
licentious.
Tho kings of old, In all lands, kept
their dancers, who were tnught lo
cator to tho sated Imagination of
monarchs. The King of the Hawaii
an Islands mndo the hula dancers
popular. The Importation of Ameri
can gin often turned the dance into
an orgy.
The American tourist expects to
sec tho hula dance on his arrival. Ho
still expects the nntlve girls to bo
more or less free when ho makes ad
vances, as ho has been told they
wero In tho days of tho old Balling
vessels and after the arrival of tho
missionaries.
Hut he Is not long in discovering
that a New Hawaiian Qlr! has come
Into existence with the progress nf
time.
Honolulu possesses a largo popula
tion of educated and refined nntlve
girls and women and ns many more
of half white young women. There
nro descendants of both lines of royal
families here who nre self-supporting
young women stenographers, sales
women, teachers, clerks and no

il "The fnct that raws oro today

where will a traveler find women in
similar positions with higher Ideals
of behavior or a greater senso of self
respect thnn In the Hnwnllnn Islands.
These young women are usunlly at
tractive; often beautiful. They re
sent unduo familiarity as would tho
well-born girl In the United States.
Many of these girls have been sent
to lloston, New York or San Fran
cisco to ndorn homes, to bo good
wives, mothers and citizens.
They resent the Idea that because
they are brown of skin men feel frco
to approach them with any Idea of
familiarity.
These girls would no sooner think
of dancing tho hula than would our
refined American girls think of danc
ing tho can-can for strangers who
happened to our shores.
Yet It Is difficult to convlnco tho
American youth of the clean, lino
standards which these young women!
have set for themsolves. Hecnuso an
these Islands may be found tho clnrs
of women which exist everywhere,
the tourist of n certain typo pre
sumes to Imaglno that all tho brown-
skinned women belong to that class.
Tho Hnwnllan girl today Is no lon
ger "a typo"; she Is a woman with
Ideals, aspirations, nmbltons, and
moral standards.
Alllinll!)j,th New Hawaiian (llrl!
She belongs to our now Territory

be treated with nil the respect which
she is entlfied to.
