FKBUUAUV 5, XS05. Tiik municipal authorities of Honolulu are keeping in touch with cities governed on the Americin plan. They bare jnt awarded "an exclusive eternal franchise for an electric rnilroad." Mil. CLEVELAND lias offered an amend raent to his statement that "it Is not a theory but a condition which confronts us." This time it Is a "predicument which confronts tic." Just eo. No one should know what it is oetter than the man who cansed it. It U pleasant to take notice that "the Pope Is disposed to do something for the negroes and Indians of this country. There is a fancy abroad that the United States government has done considerable for the colored man. First, in taking oil ills shackles; second, in giving him the electoral franchise and in other respects lifting him to a plane of equality with his white brother. It is conceded that he Is not given a chance to exercise all his rights In the South, owing to the unchurt '-'-tableiie.-s and brutality of people of that .-section, and if the Pope can do unything ''to improve his condition in this respect it will be a good thing. As for the laws, .they are about all that the colored man 'Could UBk, though there are many short .comings touching the execution of the same. It is in this direction that help is most needed. In regard to the Indians, we are also doing considerable for these. At the tame time we are not repelling .aid. Tuey are our heathen and the in fluence of every church and creed should be exercised in their behalf. It is a very shrewd game that tho Free Traders have been playing since the No vember elt-ctiotis iu calling upon Protec tionist leaders to outline some specific -'lull that will lie passed in place of the Gorman bill. It is a sort of "heads, I -win tails you lose" game. Whatever the answer on the part of Protectionists, the Free Traders hope to 'score a point. If Proieciionist leaders should be be gulled Into suggesting possible details, the Free-Traders would at once seize upon these suggested possibilities as a pledge of party action, If, as would un doubtedly be the case, Protectionist lead ers ohould disagree in regard to some of the details, the Frce-TrHders would cry out that the party was disunited and the leaders at odds with one another. If, on the other hand, the Protectionists should refuse to enter into details, the I'ree Trader! would be ready with a plausible interpretation of such refusal For such interpretation there has been abundant opportunity. Protectionist leaders have iu almost every case refused to enter upon a question of details. They h ive deemed it quite sufficient to state that, whatever the details of a new bill that should be passed, it should be a bill whlMi should have for Its fundamental principle the Protection of American in dustries. But t he Free Traders have pro fessed to see in this refusal of Protec tionist to give detail, a confession on their part tat thay ha? nothing" better than the GqtiHMn bill to olTej, Absurd as vuch a olatm ia, kiupe there would be difficulty in pausing a w jib bill, it is well, nevertheless, for Protectionist to permit not the slightest chance for doubt in re gard to their position, If the recent elea tious meant anything, they meant denun ciation of the Gorman bill and disgust 'with the whole Free-Trade Administra tion. It is well, then, for Protectionists to make It very clear that they will have something better than the Gorman bill to offer, and that they Intend to enact a bill which shull protect American Indus trie as soon as they possibly can. Let them, too, not cease to emphasize the fact that the present disaster and depres sion are due to the baneful effects of Tariff reform, and that they have no in tention of "letting the country rest" in the midst of such evils, but that they mean to place it again in the midst of suoh prosperity as it enjoyed under the McKinley Tariff. Let ther)), above all, beware of all overtures and all proposals coming from the .Free-Trade enemy's it. Our Cuiiiit.i i'iuliiilon. -According to a Into rrpoit of llio e n- j fins bureau, there is no ctauger (hat the United Stains will ever be overwhelmed by its jiagroes. The mnok popni'sMoii is ; lucruimug, li is u up, uih noifiiiig' jikb in proportion ns rapidly ns tho white Tho flrt reliable ntntUtios which Dr. Henry tjminctt, the census ex- j mniner, finds on the subject nro thoso of 1700. Thon thero were in tho country 3, 172,00(1 whites, 707,208 nogroos. From that tinio on, counting in tho slnvos brought into the oonntiy from Africa mid tho inoruns-o in births hero, thcro was n continuous inorenso till, at tho 18!)0 census, tho colored' population amounted to 7,470,040. In 1800 tho while popnlation was in round numbers 00,000,000. The ncgioes had iucroapd about tenfold, the whites eighteenfold. In 1700 the negroes constituted oue-fifth "of tho population, in 1800 less than ono- eighth. Tho long lino of figtiros shows that the blacks do not increase so rapid ly in freedom ns they did in slavery an argument that may bo used favorably or unfavorably, according ns one looks nt it. A large part of the increase dur ing tho early years of this century, how evor, when tho porceutngo was tho great est, wns undoubtedly duo to the slave trade. In thodecade from 1850 tp 1800, when tho slnvo trado hnd nearly ceased, tho proportion of negro to whito popu lation was 14.18 per cent. During the first ton years of this century it was over 10 per cent. Thero was an apparent incroaso in tho percentage of growth from 1870 to 1880, but that is now bolioved to bo due more to defective) enumeration in 1870 than to actual gain in 1880. Dur ing tho lust' decade tho proportion of negro to white population was only 11.03 per cont So that relatively to the whites tho negro population is now It? s that two-thirds as numerous as it was 100 years ago. Tho statistician finds that tho blacks marry younger and have, on tho average, shorter lives than the whites. Wo are rather surprised, to find fur ther that tho drift of tho negro popular tion is at proscnt away from cities to- Ward the country. At tho same time they nro moving from tho border statos into tho gulf states add those of the south Atlantic bordor. Finally ono ro grets to learn that tho por cont of 'crimi nals is grentor among tho blacks than tho whites,! whilo thero are at least ns many paupers. But, on the other hand, school attendance is rapidly gaining among tho negroes. Whilo thu agricultural department is studying iuto human foods with the viow of giving information to farmers, why should it not also invostigato tin adulteration of human foods and medi cines which is carried on in this country to an oxtent dangerous to health and life itself. Tho very Hour, cheap as it is, of which brend is mndo is padded out with adulterants and then thrust on the market half baked, in time it ruins tho stomach of tho person who oats it. As to tho mitritivo and pleasant olivo oil, it has practically disappeared from the mnrket. Cottonseed oil, w hioh has takeu its place, is palatable, but has littlo of tho hoaling and nutritivo qualities-thnt belong to olivo oil Whito earth comes into tho country by tho ton to bo mixed with tho sugar in tho candy that ohil dren and grown peoplo cat.

Tho great crop of stealings, defalca tions, HWindliugs nnd embezzlements sown in thu past few years by Ameri cans in high and trusted official place is now being harvosted iu tho shape- of ruin, disgrace, flight, imprisonment and suioide.

Calculations of the supporters nnd opponents of tho now administration 'financial bill woro upset yesterday by tho interjection of a now'fao- tor into the odnipnigu. Mr. Heed, of Malno, tho ltepubllenu loader, brought forward a new plan for which ho Is eu dcavorlng to enlist tho entire strength of his party, and which ho will offer as n sub stltutcfur tho admlnlstrnllou scliomo.il' ho thinks his plan call command titi.Tlclent support to make it a factor in tho light. Ihuro arc but two sections to tho Iteed plan ln tho form in which ho has submit ted It to his colleagues. Tho first proposes to restrict tho law of 1875, which author izes tho socrutarv of tho treasury to issue bonds to redcom the greenbacks, to 8 'per cont. bonds. Tho second section author izes tho secretary "of tho treasury when thero is a deficit to issuo certificates of in debtedness to pay current expenses,-tho certificates to bo in sums of $26, f60 and $100 and any multiples thcrof, bearing in tnrost at 3 por cont. and paynblo lit coin. Tho bill, as Mr. Bced explained to tho Republicans whoso support ho sought, is but a temporary expedient totldo Ovortho present distress. Tho substitution- of "coin" for tho gold provisions of tho- ad ministration plan is expected to win -for it tho toleration, if not tho support of tho freo silver men. Its comparative simplic ity, it Is oxpectod, will commend tho bill to tho house in proforenco to more com plex plans. Mr. Reed dovotcd himself nssiduouslv throughout tho day to cloak room consul tations witli tho Republicans. Ho first endeavored to elicit tho opinions of the gold men, and thon talked to tho sliver men. Tho measure of his success is dlfll- cult to estimate Tho plan Is to offer the bill as a substitute for tho administration bill, and by polling tho solid Republican vote Whilo tho Democrats are divided on tho administration bill mako it tho most formidable proposition in tho field, and perhaps Induco tho Deihocratto opponents of tho administration bill to rally to its support. Chairman Springer, and his colleagues hnvo counted on most of tho Republican votes for tho administration bill, and havo prophesied tllat It would poll about the samo support that was, given to tho repeal of tho purchasing clauio. of tho Sherman act. Accordingly Mr. Rood s movo over turns their calculations to a great oxtent. Interest ln tiio financial question about tho senato yesterday centered iu the ac tivity of tho silver senators and tho fre quent consultations held by them! This, taken in connection with tho call Issued by Senator Voorhees, chairman of tho fluauco committee, for a meeting of the committee, today led to tho general sup position that an attempt would bo made by the silver ndvocatos on tho committee to sccuro tho roportlng of a freo silver bill. Inquiry among the members of tho com mltteo failed to develop absolute assurance that tho effort would bo made, but enough was said ln many quarters to indicate, that tho general supposition was not without good foundation.

Hard work, tired nervei, bad blood and run-down system weaken the eyes. Fol lowing Is the molt wonderful cure of blindness on record. Mrs. Carrie I. Reed, Jy Bridge, Me., says: 'In January I begih to fall; I was all tired out and overworked. My nerves bs came very wenk, nnd I was very nervous. Finally 1 began to lose my eye sight, nnd 1 grew stedlly worse. 'I could not see to Rew or knit, and I could hot see to do my hnusework with out the aid of gliisses I ' had to wear them much of the time. My eyes were in a very hndconditl'in. People told me I must tro to the oculist and have my eyes examined and treated. MUS. CARnlE I. REED. "I had heard of the wonderful cure1 performed by Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and determined to try it, and see what it wnnld do for me. 1 had not token but half a bottle before I whm very much better. I could see ever so much better, and felt betterevery way. When I had taken two bottles my eye sight was as good and dear aseverltwas, aud I always had the best ot eye-sight until this winter. "In a shoit time I was entirely cured of all my troubles by that wonderful rem edy, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood nnd nerve remedy, it has done a great thing for me. My eyes did not look like eyes, they looked like blind eyes, they were so red and inflamed before being cured. It is a wondei fill cure, and it in a wonderful medicine. I shnll praise it far and near." Heie Is an additional danger for weak nerved, tired out people. Don't neglect those weak eyes, weak nerves, and run down systems, but get well by taking the great medicine, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy." Why waste time in trying uncertain and untried remedies, when here is a physician's prescription, a discovery made by the greatest living specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14th St., New York City. It you take this medicine you can consider yourself under-Dr. Greene's direct pro fessional care, and you can consult him or write to him about your esse, freely and without charge. This Is a guarantee that this remedy will cure, possessed by no other medicine in the world. A MONSTEFMCE GORGE. Citizens of l'ort Deposit l'reparml for an Inundation. Port Deposit, Md., Feb. 6. Tho people ot this placo are taking ovory pos-l lo pro- caution ln order to lessen the dostmctlon of life and property expected to fol'ow tho breaking of tho present Ico gorge. From a point ruuuing parallel with the Balti more and Ohio rnilroad bridge across'Gar- rett Island up the Susquehanna river the ce ls-gorged from shore to shore as fat' as McCnll's Forry, with tho oxceptlon of two channels close to the banks. These chan nols are very narrow, aud but littlo water flows through them. Logs and fragments of buildings are piled up from six to ten feet alwvo the normal levol of the rivor, aud from that to the bottom of the stream lie packed huge cakes of loe, which dam the river. This condition of affairs obtains from Garrett's Island to a point about three miles above Port Deposit, making one hugo blockade seven miles long, one mile wide and from thirty to fifty feet deep. The mass of loe at Mi ('nil's Ferry, forty foot lu height, keeps the Inrger volume of the river baok above that point. Along the street ln Port Deposit boats nre moored to fences, tied to hitching posts and lying on verandua, and in the hnusos on tho river side of the street every prep aration has been made for Immediate re moval of furniture, etc., to tho upper stories, where supplies of fuel aud' food havo lwen placed in oaso of emergency. The tide effects the river to the extent of two foot. If the gorge breaks when tho tide, is at the flow it will increase the height of the fiood by Just that much and heighten tho danger and damngo in pro portion. Lynchers on Trial for Murder.
