Washin; Advertising Medium it has mo com- petitor. t7Im order to = of personal STAR should r THE STAR, or to siness Department, Fpose. Chairman Wilson’s report from the Ways and Means Committee is a thoughtful and able production, such as would be expected from the scholarly political economist who ‘Wrote it. The popular tendencies are, ap- parently, in the direction of tariff-reduc- tion through the lopping off of some ugly Protection excrescences, and the emphasiz- ing of the revenue rather than the protec- tive feature in tariff legislation. So far as the Wilson bill and report advance on these Ines, they are apt to be in touch with pub- Me sentiment, no matter how disagreeable, locally, some of the changed schedules may be. But there is at least one ground ef general criticism of the Wilson bill tguched upon inthe report which does mot seem to be satisfactorily met. This is the failure to supply sufficient revenue. A protective tariff with incidental revenue, or a revenue tariff with incidental " protection, or an income tax without cus- toms duties under a free trade system, will supply the funds necessary to carry on the government. The Star believes that the beople of the United States favor today the raising of money for national purposes through a revenue tariff, neither building higher the protection wall, nor tearing it down completely, with the necessary result of taxing incomes. Even when they have * been convinced that the tariff is a tax, their desire, it is thought, is to cause this indirect and generally unrecognized tax to * be more equitably imposed, rather than to * substitute for it a direct, inquisitorial tax upon their incomes, which they will at once * recognize, feel and resent. The failure of the Wilson bill to raise the necessary reve- nue tariff, compelling a direct tax upon the = *mall duties on the proper objects of a reve- nue tariff, compeliing a direct tax upon the people for national purposes, causes the measure to partake of the characteristics both of a revenue-tariff and a free-trade Proposal, and to meet the hostility, not only “ of certain protected industries from which protection is to be withdrawn, but of the great body of citizens who prefer indirect to direct taxation for national purposes, have no liking for absolute free-trade, and will, in thousands of instances, resent by their votes the annoyances and inequities of an income tax as it is collected in prac- . Uce in distinction from theory. —_—-~+ e+ —___ The Star said yesterday that ex-queen Lili’s refusal to be restored in the manner Proposed by the administration gave the lat- ter an excellent opportunity to wash its hands of the whole disagreeable business. Apparently the latter is about to avail itself of this opportunity. Mr. Charles rdhoft writes to the New York Herald: “I think the queen's refusal of Mr. Cleveland's con- ditions changes the aspect of affairs. We Rave no further business to interfere in * Hawaii.” The Herald indorses this view and to give it additional weight points out ‘that Mr. Nordhoff is, on the Hawaiian question, virtually the administration, for when Mr. Blount reported, “he simply re- { affirmed the revelations previously made to the world by Mr. Nordhoff’s dispatches in the Herald.” In the original policy, it ap- pears, Cleveland echoed Gresham, Gresham ‘ @choed Blount,- Blount echoed Nordhoff “and Nordhof, it is believed by many, echoed Spreckels. It is right and proper therefore that the signal for abandoning the policy thus formed should be given by Spreckels and Nordhoff. The note of sur- render has been sounded by the latter, and @choes from the rest of the administration @re expected to follow as a matter of @ourse. he administration's Hawaiian Policy was, like all Gaul, divided into three Parts. First, that a great wrong had been done; second, that it could be and ought to be undone through a queen-restoring by the republic; third, that for the purposes of this Wrong-remedying restoration the President %s the republic. The administration had Rumerous supporters in its party for the first declaration of its policy, suffered a wholesale desertion when queen-restor. ing was inscribed on its banner, and was left almost entirely without support when it mdicated that the President could dispense - with the advice and consent of Congress in the work of restoration. Now that the logi- cal results of the policy are repudiated by the man who is admitted to be responsible for the policy, the people of Hawaii and of the United States may congratulate them- selves and the world that the policy is dead. ———_~+ ee ____ Trolley wires are causing lots of trouble in Philadelphia. Directly they have dam- aged property and shocked people, to say nothing of interfering with the working of the fire department. Indirectly they have alarmed the insurance companies and are almost surely going to bring about an in- crease in fire insurance rates. Philadel- Phia had no idea what was coming when it permitted the wires and poles to cumber its streets. Now the board of fire underwriters “gays. that “many well-authenticated in- “ptances of fires from such. source _-of contact that have recently come to the », Motice of the underwriters warrant the de- mand for and insistance upon the erection » &t ‘guard wires’ the entire length of the Toads, and the importance of adopting ‘means to ‘cut off the dangerous electrical ‘J,gurrent ever present with the oyerhead trolley system, as has been demonstrated dm other cities.” The subject was deciared S“*by these same underwriters to be “so im- » Bortant to the welfare of this city and so we profess so much of civilization and re- ligion; but perhaps, after all, they may serve a useful purpose. They may compel People to recognize the hideous barbarity of the present system of execution, and the frightful abuses which are possible with the crude machinery that exists for the work. We have no argument against capital pun- ishment, but we do insist that the scaffold ought to be banished forever from this state.” Electrocution has worked smoothly in New York and is far superior to the old- fashioned method still in vogue throughout the rest of the country. Unless hanging executions are managed by experts they are frequently bungled, and even under the most skillful control the choking procedure has a barbarous appearance. We are a rapid People in many respects, but sluggishness in legal reforms is a national weakness. —___++e____ From eyery city in whicn the several varieties of rapid transit have succeeded horse-cars, there now goes up a cry for the adoption and application of such devices as will, at least, save the lives of those peo- ple who are unfortunate enough to collide with cable and trolley cars. It is not neces- sary to proceed to the extreme suggested by a New Yorker—that a man be stationed on @ little platform in front of each car, charged with the duty of rescuing the un- wary ones—it would be sufficient were each car fitted with a good fender. That speed is demanded by the public is certain, but no one wants speed without safety, and of the latter there can be no assurance so long as it is possible for the wheels of a car to mu- tilate human arms and legs. One especially horrible accident and several minor casual- ties some time ago moved the District Com- missioners to investigate the subject of “fenders,” and some time ago it was said that a suitable device had met with appro- val. Are we waiting for a few more sacri- | fices? Two days ago. a most estimable lady was tortured to death by a car that had wkat is occasionaily denominated a “fen- der” around its wheels, but it scrved no other purpose than to add to the victim's suffering. There should be a real guard at the forward end of every car thet is pro- pelled mechanically, and it should be placed there before the coroner has reason to com- plain of being overworked. 2 Gov. Tillman of South Carolina has been roundly condemned for his efforts in behalf of a regulated liquor traffic, but chat he has done well is indicated by many evidences and confirmed by news recently received from North Carolina, A great meteor was visible In the skies above both North and South Carolina the other evening, but that it appeared differently to residents of the re- spective states is certain. In the realm of Tillman—where public intoxication may not legally be—the illuminator of the heavens was just @ meteor; larger than ordinary, perhaps, but nevertheless only a meteor. In North Carolina—where the jag dieth not and the thirst ever maketh itself more thirst some of the observers noted the letters “W. W. W.” on the meteoric caudal appendage, while others are prepared to make affidavit that the word “Prepare,” in many-hued let- ters, trailed along the star-spangied firma- ment in the comet’s wake. The governor of South Carolina will be justified in calling the attention of the governor of North Carolina to the discrepancies of statement and in opening up a joint debate thereon. ————+ 2+ ______ It is possible that the New York police- man now looks back on his career and wishes that he had occasionally been polite and made a few friends while he had the chance, — eo _ The World’s Exhibition of Queen Restor- ing has encountered some difficulty through @ lack of co-operation by the lady manager department. —— 0 Fancy and artistic.

Couldn't you?" ‘No, 1 don’t think 1 could.” ‘Do you mean to say that you couldn't tell the editor how to run his paper?” ex- claimed the kicker in a tone that had ab- solute dismay in it. “I do indeed,” replied the man with the oasis, earnestly. “Well—I must say, there are not many like you.” “I know it. © used to be lke you are.
