HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.
Talk of Their Annexation With the

Talk of Their Annexation With the
United States.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.--rhe Eran1-
a11er will tomorrow publish an extended
article by its correspondent on the sub
ject Of annexation of the Hawaiian
Islands by the United States. The article
says it has been understood that the State
Department at Washington has been for
some time considering the question of
annexation, and considerable CORE
spondence on that subject has passed
with the Hawaiian Minister. Admiral
Brown also received instructions to look
into the matter while he was at Honolulu.
/. L. Williams was sent to Homo
lulu by the h'rdmjneT, and spent
i've weeks there investigating the subject
Out OF the tOrty-two members of the
Hawaiian Parliament, he obtained signed
articles on the subject from forty-one.
Ten Of these regardt annexation as DOS
slDle and desirable, in case the Hawaiian
Government is disrupted. The thirty-one
who are opposed to annexation are ma
lives, VINO are IN favor of the autonomy
OF the Hawaiian Kingdom, and Ameri-
cans who object to a territorial form Of
government for the islands, and sugar
planters, who conduct their business with
contract japanese labor. If Hawaii was
annexed this last class could not hire
cheap contract labor and their interests
would suffer.
The article says American interests in
Hawaii represent a capital of about Sll0,-
OUO,00O, while the British interest is
small. The Americans conduct almost
all the business and the English interests
are not likely to be increased. 1t was
stated that the queen favored the English
in preference to Americans, but this is
not 50. This impression was circulated
by those who owned land near the
United States coaiing station at Pearl
Harbor, and those Interested in the
Hawaiian cable to the United States for
the purpose Of making this Government
step in and annex the island kingdom.
Mr.. Williams says the present Gov
ernment Of the islands is stable, and the
newly elected Cabinet will probably con-
tinue in Office for some time

The Portland daily press., 1892-11-01


The Argus undertook to prove yester-
day from certain decisions OF the SUI
preme Court of the United States that
protection is unconstitutional. Let us
assume that it succeeded. What fol-
lows? This-that the Democratic party
has been by it's acts and declarations
violating the constitution. 1t began
these violations as far back as the
administration of Thomas Jefferson, and
it has continued them, with occasional
brief periods of repentance, down to the
present time. The affirmation of the
Argus is that the government has no
power to impose taxes except for the
purpose of revenue. Then the Demo-
cratic party should always have declared
for tariff for revenue only. But in
1882, when Andrew Jackson was their
candidate, we find the Democracy re-
solving ''that an adequate protection OF
American industry is indispensable to
the prosperity of the country" 1t is
quite clear that at this time the Demo-
cratic party was not imbued with the
idea that the taxing power could not be
used except for purposes of revenue.
In 1868 in national convention as
sembled, the Democracy declared
explicitly in favor of ''such equal taxation
under the internal revenue laws as will
afford incidental protection to domestic
manufacturers Here the intention of ar
ranging the taxes with view of favoring
| class is distinctly and explicitly avowed.
Again in 1872 they expressed themselves
| in favor of laying duties upon such arti-
| cles of manufacture as will assist in fur
Their developing the resources of the
| country. This is not quite so explicit as
the platform of 1868, but the idea of
using the taxing power to develop our
| Industries is here Enthusiastically. Again
in 1884 the protection idea crops out in
these words of the Democratic national
| platform:
| The necessary reduction of taxation can and
must be effected without depriving American
labor of the ability to compete successfully with
| foreign labor. and Withoutimposlng lower rates
\ of duty than will be ample to cover any in
| creased cost of protection which may exist in
consequence Of the niger rate of wages pre-
| vailing in this country.
( Here not only is the constitutionality of
protection recognized but it's necessity
| admitted.
| But not only have the Democrats recog-
nized the constitutionality of protection
in their words but also in their acts. The
tariff of Jeffersons administration and
of Jackson's was protective tariff; and
the tariff bill prepared by Mr.. Mills con-
tanned many duties that must have been
unconstitutional if protection is a viola
ton of the constitution.
