THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. 4. t. WINK, - tOITOS P0BirTOR. WEDNESDAY, MAKCH 21, 18P7 President McKinley's platform (kid, "The questiou of rates is a prac tical quottion, to he governed by the condition of times and of produc tion." This ought to be a sufficient answer to the free-traders who are now so eiercised to learn tho rates of the new tariff law, whether they are to be "high" or "low." But nothing ever is a sufficient answer to the free traders, nothing ever can end their empty clamor, not even such a land slide as struck them last November. It is a matter of history, accessible to everybody who will post himself, that shipping was protected in the foreign carrying trade by tariff from the foundation of the Government of the United States until 1823. It is a protection that will yield a revenue to the Government if foreign ships continue to bring our imports to us, and one that will give employment to American ships if it does not yield the Government any revenue. So it is clear that it partakes of the self same system of protection that other industries subjected to foreign compe tition in the home market receive. One of the email American indus tries that has been practically ruined by the Gorman-Wilsou tariff it that of fishing tackle, especially the man ufacture of "flies." In England the "flies" cost, to manufacture, one shil ling per gross, while here the cost of the same quality of "flies" is one dol lar per gross, the difference being en tirely due to the difference in the cost of labor. As a matter of fact "flies" are practically admitted free of duty, being allowed entry under the head ing of "Ioobb fish hooks," at 35 per cent, ad valorem, which is the same rate as is charged on the oeddleware or fish book wire from which the "flies" are made in this country. The work used to be done mainly by girls living in the country, who wore thus enabled to earn as much as ten and twelve dollars a week while living at home. But under the era of Demo cratic "Tariff Reform," these girls " are practically penniless. in an extended article on the wholesale slaughter of birds in this and other counties for the purposes largely of feminine adornment the Philadelphia Inquirer very truthfully says: The country is being scoured from one end to the other to gratify the longing of hunters for birds, and of women for gay headgear. Let some few women of Paris decide that there shall be no more birds on m ill i nery, and straightway women the world over will follow the fashion, without one thought as to the suffer tag that they have inflicted and the beauty they have helped to take from the landscape. Even if the question is looked upon from a roatter-of fact standpoint, it can readily be under stood what injury is being done to many iuterests through the wholesale slaughter. We are beginning to realize the evil that has been wrought by the destruction of our forests, and we can see that in a similar way harm has been done to crops through the killing of birds that were the en emies of destructive insects. The ep icure who makes a dish of bobo links, and so swallows a whole iym phony of melody, the members of gun clubs who want to distinguish themselves for tnarksoinnship, the hunter who only wants to kill some -il)iug and the nuinaJ who curries i hole aviary on her bead, are equally :ulpable. Hawaii's Population. An official census of Hawaii has been completed, aod it affords an in teresting insight into the population o the in laud s. The total inhabitants are 109,020. Of these two-thirds are males. Allegheny city is much wore populous. Of the total num oer itie natives ana naii-oreeas are more thau a third. The Chinese and Japanese swell the total, with the natives, to 58,500, leaving of all other nationalities leg than 24,000. The Chinese, the Japanese, or the natives, either one, outnumber all the other inhabitants. The Americans on the inland are about 3,000 while the Portuguese are five times as numerous. Wlieu it is remembered that there are fewer Americans in Hawaii than in any of two or three hundred little country town of I lie Uuited Htutt-s that might be meulioued, and the islands are nearly two week's sail from Americau shores, the talk of annexing the islauds to the United Slates appears in about the light it is entitled to. The auuexition of 40, 000 untamed Kanakas, 25,000 Japs, 21,000 Chinese, 15 000 Portuguese anil u fe thousand other nondescripts of various aucentry, to get 3,000 American into the fold, looks differ- nt when tho oensus is counted than when the matter is spoken of merely as the acquisition of a piece of new territory. The Hawaiian Islands have a commercial value to the United States in supplying a limited proportion of tho sugar we use. But if we care to foster the beet sugar in dustry, and make of it what we might, even that value would be lost from Hawaii. The inlands are not American euniigh to be worth considering. Joys of an Kditor. Editing a paper is a pleasant ness if you like it. If it contains much political kusi- mat tcr people won't have it. Il the type is large it don't coutain much rending matter. If we publish telegraphic reports, folks say they are nothing but lies. If we omit them, we have no en terprise, or suppress them for politi cal effect. If we have a few jokes, folks say we are nothing but raltleheads. If we omit jokes they say we are nothing but fossils. If we publish origiual matter, they abuse us for not giving selections. If we publish selections people say we are lazy for not writing more, and giving them what they have not read io some other papor. If we give a complimentary uotice we are centured for being partial If we dou't all hands say we are a great bog. If we insert an article which pleases the ladies the men become jealous and vice versa. It we attend church they say it is for effect. If we remain io our office folks say we are too proud to mingle with other fellows. If we go out they say we don't at tend to our business. We must work harder, more hours in a day, with less recreation, or less sleep or proper pay, than any of our fellow mortals. We must be busy when our neighbors are idle, busier when they sleep and busiest when they are enjoying a good time. We must always be in a hurry, al ways under a press of business, al ways "settiug up" when others are lying down, and always charitably "distributing" tho results of our daily labor. Our opinions always go to "proof," but seldom into practice. We must publish a paper for $1.00 in advance tnai costs fd, ana wait tur pay mi a collector has cotton bis commission for collecting it. It is a lifo of mingled good aod ill, trial and triumph, never-ending toil aod benigning felicity Vherein we work out our allotted time, with the "devil" always at our elbow calling more copy."
