THE NEW SOUTHERN PROBLEM.
The central iafranchisement of the
negro voters of the South has bred a
polemic interest ta the proposal of
vrhlcb Consresman Crumpacker of In
diana to one of the recent sponsors, to
reduce the representation in Congress
of tfce State, where the voting has been
thus abridged. This procedure would
not'. be as radical as it
provided for In the terns of the foux
e.U amendment, which decided that
the nholo number of voters should be
the'haaia representation but speci
fied that ft an, claw should be disfran
chised br' the States, the number of
Coagreane from such States should
be ct down proportionately. Under
the admitted facts the South has for
feited height to thlrty-flve seats in
the. House . oC . Representatives. But
naturally she does not want to give
them up 'without a quid pro quo; and
sentiment, l,hAPinff :. itself there to
wards the offer of a compromise by
whl. in return for the surrender of
the thlrty-flre seats, the rest of the
country will consent to the repeal of
the fifteenth amendment, by hich the
-rhsht.to voU,, shall, not be denied or
abridged "by' the "United States nor by
any State on account of race, color, or
previous condition of servitude.
There is no probability that these
terms will b accepted. Yet thoughtful
men In the North quite generally agree
that the full enfranchisement of the
negro was a mistake. Knowledge of
the science of government cannot be
gained by the magic of a ballot in
hand; self-government by the mass,
like sWf-control by the individual, Is a
matter of personal and even of ances
tral training. By suddenly enfranchis
in the' negro, a great brute pulp of

THE QUEEN'S POSITION.

iv to ? guMed bV some very practical questions which her present quest of
!he crVwS lands and the experience it has brought to her must suggest.
in Z first place the Queen knows that Delegate Wilcox has not pressed
her claims at Washington as he had promised. Indeed he has n more

Private interest, he has given the beet part of his official time Hours for
Pain and rot one minute for Liliuokalanl! Wilcox has appeared before com
mittees to aid the Kohala ditch Job but where is the committee before whom
he has pleaded for the restitution of the crown lands? He filed .a" brief for
the Tramways but none for Lllluokalani; he tried to double the Present s
salary an7h,s own. but he did not raise a finger to guide a dime Into the
rSckTts of Hawaii's former sovereign. It would need something as strong as
hTpnotism. indeed, to induce Her Majesty to help this very shifty and elu
sive friend into another term of office.
One might easily conceive that the Queen, not only because her inter
ests as a cfaimant are involved but because of her pride of family, would like
o Lfone of her Royal house make his mark in Congress. The Queen mus
often have been ashamed of Wilcox; she must have keenly realized the blight
he was pntting on the good name of her people; it must please her to think
that the Prince who Is now leading her young Hawalians could change dis
trust and contempt into confidence and respect and make a mark for Hawaii
in ttie highest councils of the nation. The Prince is a scholar and a gentle-man-
Wilcox is neither. By the social power the young leader would wield at
the -apitol his political influence would be vastly Increased and the gentle
breeding of the best Hawaiians exemplified. It is useless to speak of social
roer in the am breath with Wilcox-the odor of the swearing fishwoman
to over it all. But to ta, :-alon of a prince of the old regime, of a princess of
beauty and grace, who would not come and in coming be mindful of the chance
to do something for Hawaii in return?
Of course the Advertiser cannot speak for the Queen, but she is a woman
who can speak for herself and for Hawaii, and by that token we predict : that
she and Wilcox will find no political ground in common on which to stand
against the Prince. '
EARLY MORNING DEPREDATIONS.
The fact that a large class in the ju
venile population of Honolulu is being
trained to steal and that many people
have come to look upon its thefts as
the result of a prescriptive right, go to
mVo a really serious condition here.

You don't and can't if your stom

does not digest all that is ordi

easily, and what it fails to digest
is wasted.
Among the signs of a weak stom

of nervous headache, and disagree

As an advocate of an isthmian canal,

to obtain one; for if he goes ahead and
spends $40,000,000. Congress will assur

forcement of a license law against the
itinerant fruit peddlers might have a
remedial effect.
THE CASE OF ANDREE.
That Andree crossed the field of the
pole seem3 to be fairly well-established;
but what he found there may nev
er be known unless he kept a diary
which has been preserved by those who
murdered him.
The rumor that the Danish aeronaut
had landed in the far confines of Arctic
North America came down two years
ago but was inconclusive. . Six months
ago the account became credible. Now
the facts are at hand in a form which
admits of little doubt. Andree and his
fricn-ls landed in the American snows;
