Hawaii.

The American minister to Hawaii,
Hon. John L. Stevens, prints in the Ken
nebec Journal singularly eloquent and
forceful paper setting forth why the
United States must take charge OF
the Hawaiian Islands. The government
of Queen Liliuokalani is crumbling, the
Hawaiians are turning to us as their
best friends to save them from anarchy,
and the eyes of the nations of Europe
are turning greedily to these fair islands,
which are the key to the Pacific. That
they have not already passed into pos
session of England, France or even
Spain is owing only to the fidelity and
watchfulness of the American mission
aries, Mr.. Stevens tells us.
The United States must take posses
sion of Hawaii because thereby we shall
protect our Pacific coast line. We quott
from Minister Stevens letter these ring
ing sentences:
The states and territories which outlet OF
the vast western ocean will some day have {

tional territory. 1t is not possible for then
much longer to remain alone. Their peopl
and the United States will soon be compelle'

COUNCILMAN NICKLIN RESIGNS

In rendering his resignation yester-
day as member of the New Whatcom
city council, under the peculiar circum-
stances obtaining at the time, Mr..
Nicklin did not do himself justice, but
on the contrary manifested a lack OF
self-control which he is apt to regret IN
his cooler moments, and which will
not add to his feeling of self-respect
Mr.. Nicklin's special reason for offering
his resignation was occasioned by the
fact that he was not allowed to discuss
certain questions before the council,
the mayor ruling him out of order. 1t
will be remembered that some months
ago the mayor pursued the same plan
and then had the gentleman removed
by force from the council chamber, an
action giving warrantable excuse for
resignation. To retain his seat under
such circumstances, with six months
of his term unexpired, when successor
might have accomplished something,
and to now resign under the pretext
of "gag" law, with but another meet
ing or two of the council. before him, to
say the least does not set Mr.. Nicklin
forth in very enviable light. The
experience of the past year in the coun-
Gil warrants the conviction that MI
Nicklin does not properly estimate his
own weakness nor his opponents his
real elements of strength. His princi
pal fault does not lie in any lack o
ability, the difficulty consisting in the
fact that instead of advocating the ad
vanced legislation in the city's interes
which his talents could easily hav'
inaugurated, thereby constituting hin
q leader among other members, he ha
devoted himself Largely to criticisini
the actions of his colleagues and il
looking for evidences of wrong doing
and to "a large extent hindering tn
work of the council. On the othe
hand, the gentlemen with whom MI
Nicklin came in conflict reached tn
point of irritation where they forgot t
make due allowance for his peculia
manner in stating his propositions
The points made by him at yesterday
session of the council were in them
selves good, and apart from any ulterio
motive were not unreasonable, but tn
manner in which they were stated wa
offensive to the other members of tn
council and contained charges whic
they could not tolerate in justice
themselves.

Theosophical Brotherhood.

One is deeply panied to learn that all
is not brotherly in the camp of the The
osophical brotherhood. One of their
three cardinal aims is the dissemination
throughout an ignorant and waiting
world of the doctrine of universal broth
erhood, yet now we behold the spectacle
of even these brothers clawing each
other Just as the unregenerate outsiders
of the Christian world might do. The
osophists give us to understand that the
Christian religion is not in it compared
with the exalted and illuminated scheme
which they offer us in its stead.
In brotherhood the family ought to
be all equal among themselves, each
trying to have his brother receive more
honor than he himself does. Yet now
we seem to perceive that even among
brothers there must be boss. The

Jay Gould, though he was one OF the
richest men that ever lived, had failed
to learn one lesson, and that was to let
up and take things easier after he be-
came a multimillionaire. Commodore
Vanderbilt found his joy and relaxation
in driving good horses, so he lived to a
good old age. His son William and the
Aston men had also their favorite amuse-
ments, travelling extensively and leaving
much of the business detail connected
with the management of their millions to
their trusted agents. A millionaire must
do this if he would even leave his brain
clear and fresh to plan for the accumu-
lation of more wealth. But Gould never
did so. He had no relaxations, no fads.
He was a tireless, money making ma
chine, remorseless to himself in the ex-
penditure of his energies. II he had
lived till 1900 he would probably have
gone on record as the wealthiest single
individual history had known up to that
time. But he wore himself out in the
prime of his life.

The Pacific coast Is destined some
day to outrival the Atlantic seaboard
In one of its most important and prof
liable industries, that Of curing and
shipping salt water fish. Recentinves-
LEGATIONS by government officials are
all in favor of the quantity and quality
of the cod fish caught in Boring sea as
above those of the Atlantic ocean, and
the day is not far distant when this
fact will be turned to practical benefit
by some of the business men of the
East who are familiar with this indus
try. A gentleman who recently re-
turned from Boston and who made in
quiries while there with reference to
this subject, reports that a large num-
Der of interested parties are seriously
talking of removing their headquarters
from that section to the Pacific coast.
At present San Francisco enjoys the
largest share of the Pacific coast trade
in this branch of industry, fact due
principally to its having been settled
before any of the cities further north
It is an open secret that Bellinghan
bay offers advantages for the curing
and shipping of fish caught in Berint
sea far superior to those maintaining
in California. Its nearness to the coo
fisheries, combined with its transpor
tation facilities, renders it strategy
point for this industry, while its eli
matte conditions are unrivaled by an
other section of the coast for the curin
and subsequent care of the season
catch. If the matter were properl
looked into by wide-awake Chamb'
of Commerce or Board of Trade, the
is no reason why an industry Of tn
nature should not be established ON Il
Bay within the coming season ar
thereby lay the foundation of buildil
up a large trade in this importa
branch Of commerce.

the lower Pedee. opposite the chain Of
British forts on the line OF the Santee river
that covered Charleston on the north. From
this stronghold his band sailed forth, di-
rected by scouting parties that kept watch
upon the movements Of the British, and
harassed and annoyed the enemy more than
an army would have done.
The British at length attempted to break
up "Mr. Marion" as he was known in their
official dispatches. Col Tarleton, the leader
of the southern Tories, tried to pursue the
band after one of their wild ncursions with
IN the British lines. He failed, and two
parties were sent out from the forts on the
the other by Doyle. Watson started in
March, 1871, with 500 regulars and Tories
and marched from Fort Watson, on the
Santee in the direction of Shows Island.
Marion had exact knowledge of Watson's
progress and by swift march met him in
the swamps bet Seen the Santee and Black
rivers A spirited fight took place. and
Watson's advance body of Tory cavalry
was driven back upon the infantry sup
ports. Marion then retired before Watson,
frequently laying an ambuscade for the
British, and at Black river made ready for
decisive COfnUAC.
A bridge on Watson's route was thrown
down and body of rIfemen was placed in
the low swampy border on the east bank.
Watson boldly opened with field pieces
from the high ground on the west bank.
But Marion's sharpshooters cut down the
British artillerists on sight and forlorn
hope party that tried to storm the passage
was driven back with the loss of its leader
and Of all the men who rallied around him.
Watson declared that he had never seen
such shooting in his life." Finally ! gave
it up In despair and sent letter to Marion
imploring him to 90 back to regular meth
ods Of warfare and fight in open field.
Marion took no notice OF this, but pushed
his daring swamp fighters across the stream
up to the very outposts of the British camp,
drove them from place to place, and at last
got them into corner where Watson was
glad to accept from his opponent permission
for the wounded to pass on to the main
British lines. Before the British escaped
they were compelled to fight for the road
way. Watson's horse was killed under him
and he saved his head by narrow chance
This was at Sampit bridge, on the road to
Georgetown, on the lower Pedee. The fail
ure of an ambuscading party to do the
work cut out by Marion alone saved Wat
son from destruction at that time.
