ANNEXATION OF THE SANDWICHES.

There should be an end for all time to
the talk about the annexation of the Sand
wich Islands. About every other year
some newspaper discovers that scheme is
on foot looking to the taking of the islands
by the United States. The matter is
talked over and discussed for a few days
and is then permitted to rest until the dis
covery'' of another scheme The United
States, in order TO annex these islands,
would have to adopt policy against which
the republic has firmly set its face during
all the years of its existence. To keep to
ourselves has been inculcated by all our
great statesmen, who have also eXhortted
the nation to avoid the acquisition of terri
tory which was not essential to the
republic, and which might involve
us in trouble to hold it. Wherever and
whenever this traditional policy has been
faithfully observed it has been well for u.s.
and wherever and whenever it has been
departed from it has been i'll with us. The
Samoan islands present an Illustrative
instance. There can be no doubt regard
ing the Interior purposes of certain
officials of the United States regarding
those islands. The object was to annex
them, or, what would have been practically
the same thing, to bring them under the
protection of the United States. The
government was gradually led into the
scheme until it had gone too far to retreat
and the result came near being a most dis
astrous war with a lifelong friend
The islands have already cost America
more than the entire group would be worth
to US if the title were clear and undisputed
More than that, we are by no means free
from the "'entangling alliance" ard may
yet have much trouble over the departure
from the policy which had so long guided
the nation.
1t is to the interest of the United Stated
to see that the Sandwich Island do not
pass under the control of another, and per-
haps unfriendiy power. Thus for this
country can go with safety, and no fur
Their. To take the islands would sooner or
later involve this republic in very serious
trouble We would have to fight to hold
them, and the islands are not worth
fight, or even the friendship Of any of
the great powers which would
be al enated were we to take
KALAKAwA's kingdom. An aggressive for
eign policy may be the thing for some ma
tons, but a conservative home policy is
what the United States will prosper best
under.
All the use the United States have for the
Sandwich Islands, is the privilege of its
vessels calling there for repairs and sup
plies on their way to and from the antip-
odes That privilege viii not be denied, no
matter to whom the islands belong, so long
as this country does not undertake to be
piggish and take something it does not
want.

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.

The preamble to the constitution of the
United States has been described as being
the Declaration of Independence, and u
very good statement it is. 1t is as com
plete a bill of rights as was ever devised
within The brain of man, setting out as it
does all that he is entitled to and all that
he may reasonably hope for within this
sphere Of existence. "All men are created
equal" this is not strictly correct in all
particulars, but it is the yoicing of a de-
cree of nature, which intended that they
should be so created and did its part in
that direction. "They are endowed alike
by their Creator with certain unalienable
rights, among which are life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness" There can be
no contention regarding this, excepting per
haps the second boon mentioned, there being
more or less doubt, in contemplation of our
varied relations, as to whether or not all
are entitled to the same degree of liberty
But, as previously suggested, there can be
no doubt as to the other two. We inherit
from the source Of our existence the right
TO live and be happy, and the person, the
agency, the combination or the power
among men which would deprive US of
these apart from any direct act of forfeit
ure on our own part is presumed on the
face Of the case, to be tyrannical and I'M
lust, and that thereupon it is the right,
even the duty, of the people affected to
change, to alter or to abolish such condi-
ton of things. This does not mean that in
the pursuit of happiness we are to be utter
Iy unbridled; that we are to construe unre-
strained physical indulgence in accordance
with the demand of depraved appetite as
the quest of legitimate sources of mental
and soulful content; far from tit means
what it says: that we are entitled to pursue
h ppiness, but others are similarly en-
titled, hence, in pursuing our own, we have
no right to do those things which trench
upon or cucumber the rights and the wei
fare of others.
We are approaching condition of things
in Utah in whitehall the great and glowing
provisions of the preamble and the charter
itself arise before us at almost every turn.
We reed the splendid sentences and then,
because they are thrust before us, read the
declarations of that combination of men
which aims at supremacy in the control of
local political affairs, and the contrast is
vivid if not painful. One by one
they have had wrested from the
majority o. the people those inherent
rights without which none can be free and
independent, and all for the accomplish

A MISTAKEN POLICY,

None of US entertains any too much res
pect for the men and women who array
themselves as guys and under the banner
of the"Salvation Army"go about the coun-
try making noise, creating disturbances
and vulgarizing sacred things. 1t is COM
misseration rather than respect which
the average person feels for these people.
They are looked upon as cranks, and while
they do some good i'll leading men and
women into better ways, it is an open ques
ton if the harm they do does not overbal
ance the good accomplished by them. Their
recruity are largely of the weak minded
class, though now and then an evil-minded
immoral or vicious person join the band be-
cause he imagines he sees in it opportunities
for evil doing which are not presented else
where.
We say that intelligent people have very
little respect for the Salvationists, regard
ing neither the persons nor their methods
with favor. At the same time, fair and
Army folks with respect, and decry the
persecution of the latter. This is almost
equivalent to saying that the city of East
Portland, Oregon, is not under the control
of fair and intelligent people. Being
troubled by the Salvation Army, and know
ing no law under which the rustling Sal
vationists could be suppressed, the council
adopted an ordinance declaring it an offense
punishable by fine and Imprisonment for
bands to play on the streets. There was
really no objection to band playing, and
the people were always pleased with the
parades of brass or other bands; but
the Salvation Army must be suppressed.
The tambourines and drums could be con-
strued into musical instruments, and the
noise which the soldiers and lassies made
on them be designated as music. Then an
assault could be made, without attacking
religion or interfering with the belief of
anybody-so the ordinance-m makers flattered

TO Chicago comes with a bad grace the cir

preliminary fund for the worlds fair in
1892, and will double or treble the amount
if necessary to raise so large sum to Sc

done lots of talking, but raised no money
to which no strings are attached. The
Ercning World is not happy in this kind of
argument: Get yourself some city water,
wash yourself fumigate, try your muir
derers, keep quiet, and wait a hundred

themselves into thinking. The other day
arrest of band of Salvationists, who were
parading after the usual custom, beating
drums and rafting tambourines, singing
halleluiah songs as they marched. The
men were fined and imprisoned, but the dis
patches did not say what was done with
the women. Last week four of the i'm
prisoned soldiers sued out a writ
Of habeas corpus before Judge SHAT
TUCK, of the state circuit court, and
on Saturday he gave his decision, holding
the ordinance valid and remanding the men
to jail. The only thing left for the Saliva
tionists to do is to either pay their fines, or
remain in prison until the judgment against
them has been satisfied.
The ordinance may be valid, and that
being the case its enforcement is proper
enough, but it is suggested that the move
ment against the holiness band" is all
wrong, and does discredit to the age and
the community. 1t is furthermore sug
gested that the annoyance complained of
cannot be successfully fought in the way
the Portland people are fighting it. Let
the Portland folks excuse themselves as
they will they cannot hide the fact that
they are making war on a religion,
and denying the right of religious prac-
tice which is in no sense criminal in itself
If the band playing and the singing and the
marching on the street can be prohibited
by law,so can the praying and the eXhorta-
ton; in fact, these latter are what the or
dinance was aimed at. A better plan for
dealing with the Salvation Army is that
which has always been followed in this
city. A few years ago the band was really
annoying, and individuals sometimes felt
like interfering to suppress the nuisance"
The masses and the authorities. however,
insisted upon affording protection to the
"cranks" in the exercise of their rights;
the let-alone policy was pursued, and the
result is the Salvation Army is a most in
significant institution in Salt Lake, Gre
ating less disturbance than strolling corn
doctor, and attracting very little more at
tention.
The Portland council has created sym
pathy for the Salvationists and given the
latter an incentive to fight for something
which they will eventually obtain Perse-
cution viii not succeed in an American
community.
