No one doubts what Honolulu ought

The safoty and the sanity with
which this city has celebrated nearly
nlno out of ten of the anniversaries
of Independence D.iy that havo been

Most cortalnly would It bo gratify
ing for the business men and all men
of Honolulu to devote a portion of
their tlmo to n display of patriotism
on tho Fourth. It would Impress our
fellow citizens of tho mainland that
the patriotism of Hawaii Is not based
solely on the number of dollars there
may eventually bo won by virtue of
tho display.
HAWAII AND THE SUGAR TARIFF.
What of the sugar tariff?
Tho answer to that question Is n
good deal like forecasting tho prlco
of- raw sugar when conditions In all
tho leading nugar producing countries
ure decidedly unlike anything that has
prevailed before.
Of ono thing those Interested In the
'production of sugar may bo assured.
Tho attack on tho sugar tariff will bo
"more powerful and more dangerous
-xi winter than at any time slnco
the days when Hawaii had to bo wor-
rylng over tho continuation of tho
reciprocity treaty. Conditions In Con

I'nr the present tho wool tariff Is
occupying the undivided attention of
the tariff tinkers and the real trouble
for sugar will not begin till well Into
next year Tho Investigation now be
ing made of the sugar trust opera
tions Is ubsombling u lot of facts to
be used by both sides, but no legis
lation nerd ho feared at tho cxtin
ordinary session of Congress.
Meanwhile the outlook Is not so
black as might bo represented.
Reduction of tho tariff on wool
will reduce tho revenue of tho com
try and make more Impressive the
necessity of letalning the-tariff on
sugar wlh its sixty millions of rev
enue that Is needed In the conduct ot
tho (lot eminent.
Furthermore tho crop returns
throughout the States anil the general
condition of the country during tho
next six mnntliR will lint a much to do
with tariff legislation.
It has been suggested that tho
present hot waves that nro sweeping
over tho country bid fair to havo n
wry serious effect on the great btnplo
crops. If this proves true, history
will be repeated In showing that tho
hand that rules tho weather arid tho
crop returns is In league with tho Re
publicans uuil tho protectionists.
Liugh ns wo may, it Is neverthe
less quite true that short crops and
consequent hard times will bo ro
llcctcd In tho tariff legislation, or tho
lack of It. Hard times aro ulways
charged up to Congress and havo
been coincident with gains by the
Democratic party.
These are general conditions that
count.
President Toft is regarded as fav
orable to tho sugar tariff, and tu havo
the olllcor who wields the eto power
on your sldo is a great factor.
Hut more powerful than tho Pres
ident or tho weather of tho west and
the crops that may influence public
sentiment, Is the lighting force ot
sugar producers who will contest ev
ery step toward the destruction of
their Industry, anil reduction of tho
duty on raw sugar means practically
annihilation of the sugar beet Indus
try of the northern and western
States and also the sugar cane Indus
try of Loulsianu.
Sugar is today tho cheapest rom
niodlty thut the working man uses,
trust or no trust, and.lt seems cry
doubtful that tho American people,
onco they know tho facts, will support
a policy of tariff reduction that will
wipe out an Industry without giving
to tho consumer the slightest Im
provement in tho prlco ho pays.
Hawaii must then bo ready to fight,
and light with tho conviction 'hat tho
causa of tho raw sugar tariff is by no
mcaus a losing ono
DAMAGE FOR BAGGAGE.
New York's Appellate Division of
the Stale Supremo Court handed down
a decision tho other day that attracts
almost as much popular Interest as
the famous trust cases, aB It has to do
with tho baggage placed In the caro
of a common carrier.
A passenger purchased a railroad
ticket. Tho printed condition on tho
ticket limited tho amount ot damages
to be claimed for a trunk, which was
checked on tho strength of his ticket,

Tho trunk was lost through tho
fault of the transportation company.
Tho passenger sued the company for
tho actual valuo of tho trunk and
contents far in excess of $1C0
The court decided, In face of tho
contention of the company, that tho
passenger wiib entitled to tho actual
aluo of tho articles lost.

liae been doing some Judicial legis
lating of the sort that appeals to tho
public an not only excusable, on tho
ground of public policy, but tcry ac
ceptable. It Is only legislating In tho
sense that tho court recognles and
gives ti broad effect to a principle ot
law that has grown out of public ne
cessity where It might havo held to a
narrow Interpretation.
Tho common carrier Is t.o'ruethlng

is a rreature of law and Is held to the
performance of certain dutlcH and
held 'within certain restrictions Im
posed by public policy. A railroad

is liable for actual damage traceable
to Its neglect regardless of the print
