THE news from Honolulu is quite ex-
citing. The dethronement OF Queen
Lilioukalani has been effected without
bloodshed, and the persons in control of
the government avow desire to annex
the Hawsiian's lands to the United
States. Under vigorous foreign policy
this country would cooperate in such a
movement. We could not, under any
circumstances, consent to allow any
foreign power to acquire the Sandwich
islands, and if the only way to prevent
it is to annex them, that is obviously the
course our government should pursue.
The argument has great force that we
have already all the territory we need;
and as to any acquisitions of land on this
continent this is probably tr le. But q
choice plum like Hawaii will not be al
lowed to lie around unappropriated.
There is a suggestion that a re-
public should be established there and
it would certainly give the United
States great pleasure to see sister COM
monwealth grow up in the wide waters
OF the Pacific. Our whole naval power
and prestige would be applied to sus-
tanning it, but there is grave ground for
doubling it's stability. Parties in Ha-
waii favor the annexation to the United
States as territory rather than state,
though why the territorial condition
should be preferred is very much mys
terry. Years ago the question OF thi'
country establishing protectorate ovel
Hawaii was very much mooted. Tn
true and manly policy would be to taxi
and hold the islands and get the mos
out of them for the United States AM

of the islands themselves. 1t is man.

The plans OF the Nevada Southern
railway when carried out will undoubt-
edly mean great treasure development
in virgin region. The extreme rich
ness of the country traversed by this
road has long been known, but the diff
culties and expense of thu transpor ia
ton both of ores and supplies have pre-
vented its successful exploitation. 1t is
a great gold country. Il is noteworthy
fact that the depression in the price Of
silver is turning the attention of pros
pectors all over the west to gold depos-
its. 1t generally happens that, in
mining as in other matters, this is a
world OF compensations. A great stim-
ulus, like the closing down OF the silver
mines, will be impaired to multitudes
of experienced prospectors, and the in
evitable result will be the development
of many valuable gold lodes. For years
there has been but one story as to the
region which will be opened up by this
road, and that is that it is unusually
rich in the yellow metal. However
even silver will not be despised if it il
found in great quantities.

THE inspection of the wharf at the old
Santa Monica Gallon yesterday was
highly satisfactory to the gentlemen
who made the excursion. The complete
ness of the work extorted unqualified
encomiums from all whose judgment
would count in such matters. The
structure has already been pushed out
some thirty-six hundred feet. At about
thirty-three hundred feet the wharf
was widened. All the excursionists
were interested in and pleased by the
system of brace-piling. The plan is to
carry the wharf out seaward until dis
tance of six thousand eight hundred
feet has been reached. There is no room
for doubt that this will be, when fin
ished, the grandest wharf in the world.
Readers of the HERALD will remember
that this journal gave exclusively the
first news of the intention OF the rail-
way company to undertake this great
structure. Our esteemed contempora-
ries put in several weeks ridiculing the
proposition; but were finally obliged,
as usual, to fall into the rear OF the pro-
cession. OF course the HERALD, as it
first outlined this important work, has
watched it's progress with great deal
of interest. 1t will eventually be con-
verted into mole on an even greater
scale than that at Oakland. This last
proposition, however, is purely oui con.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 2S.-The differences
between the members of the railroad
commission which have existed for come
time do not appear to be eettled. Com
missioner Beckman said to an Associ-

the members of the commission felt
that reflection was cast upon them by
Commissioner Rsa's letter to Speaker
Gould. They did not know of the
preparation of the letter, nor do they
concur in the statements made therein
by Rea. Mr.. Beckman said Rea's resig-
nation was written and placed at the
boards disposal some months ago, but
the circumstances were such at the time
that the board could not well accept it.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The house this
morning adopted resolution for an in
vestigation of the whisky trust by the
judiciary committee, and for an investi-
CATION OF the Panama scandal by select
committee of five, which will also be
charged with an inquiry into the con.
tract between the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company and the transcontinental
railroads.
The resolution for the investigation of
the Panama affair provides that a
special committee Of five be appointed
to investigate and report what sums OF
money, if any, were expended by the
Panama Canal company or its pro-
moters, directly or indirectly, for the
purpose of preventing opposition in this
country to the plans of said company, or
securing acquiescence in America
thereto; and what disposition was
made of such sums, and generally
as to the situation OF affairs upon the
isthmus as far as American commerce
seeking transit across the same may be
concerned, and also as to contracts and
relations between the Pacific Mail COM
pany and the Southern Pacific company
and the Transcontinental Railroad asso-
citation, as to what contracts or
other collusive arrangements have
been made by said companies, whereby
traffic by way of the isthmus is sup
pressed or diminished, and as to
whether said steamship company, by
virtue of said contracts or otherwise,
has been practically absorbed by or sub
jected to the control of said railroad
companies, and whether the business
which it was the design of this govern.
ment to foster by sums granted to said
steamship company through mail con-
tracts or otherwise has been thereby
diverted from the Isthmus and Panama
railroad company to such transconti-
mental companies; and as to whether
such acts are detrimental to the inter-
ests of American maritime COM
merce and producers, manufacturers
and merchants of the United States, and
if such abuses are found to exist, by
what means the same can or should be
suppressed; and as to whether fur
ther grant of said sums to said steam
ship company should be withdrawn.
The house, in committee of the whole,
proceeded to the consideration of the
sundry civil bill, but little progress was
made. Adjourned to Monday.

THE othsr day the writer INDUCED in

between Los Angeles and San Ber-

years ago. He stated that another pas
senger and himself were the only occu-

inmates coming down. Since we
penned the article we have been inter-
ested in looking over the schedules OF
the various trains that come in and go
out Of Los Angeles in the direction of
San Bernsrdino. They do not all, of
course, go that far, while some of them
go as far as st. Louis, Chicago and New
Orleans, on transcontinental lines built
since that solitary stage made its Jour-
ney. The result of our investigation has
simply paralyzsd US with astonishment.
We find that, taking in the Southern
California, the Santa Fe, the South
ern Pacific, the Terminal and
the Rapid Transit railways, between
arrivals and departures, seventy
passenger trains day pass
through our city, and, strange to say,
most of them are crowded with passen-
gers. Taking all trains of all roads go
ing and coming, over a hundred passen-
ger trains day are handled in Los An
geles. This really constitutes the An
gelic city metropolitan center. When
the innumerable fruit trains are added
to this total the figures become impres
sive. One practical suggestion springs
naturally from these figures, and thai

posed tO-Do- desirable variety. Az NEW
Orleans he gave them to a friend living
up in the piney woods of Mississippi.
Their propagation was carefully attended
to by the recipient and from that begin
ming gradually spread out over thecoun-
try new sweet potato under the name
OF Peruvian yam. 1t has finally worked
it's way to the M bile region, where 1T is
rapidly becoming a great favorite with
all who have given it trial, creating the
cOnVic ton, as it goes, thatat last is DEM
onstrated the fact that little as such was
thought to be the case heretofore, God
has made sweet potato better, in many
particulars, than the old Carolina oryel-
low yam.
OF course in travelling through the
country the new potato soon lost It's
original name of Peruvian yam. AL
most every man bringing it to a partic-
ular neighborhood was honored by hav-
ing his name affixed to it, as the Smith
yam, the Jones yam, the Schneider
yam, and so on. We have met with it
over in Baldwin county, where every
body is praising it and proposing to
plant it this year, and where it is sailing
under the euphonious and extraordinary
name of "Julia Sticks" We have further
more heard it called pumpkin yam in
another locality, though il is no more
like the Cd pumpkin yam than hog
is like the old Carolina yam.
Since we cannot depend upon the
name to point ont this new potato we
must resort to description. By care
full comparison with our description not
a few who are cuItivating the variety
already, under some inappropriate name,
perhaps, may be able to make out what
they have and what we are talking
about. Size of tuber, little above that
OF the yellow yam, on an average, shape
ongish and regular, about that of the
old yellow yam; skin smooth, exceed
ingly thin and Of q dark cream color;
flesh, very compact, of salmon color
when raw, and when baked of rich
gold color, soft and waxy (not mealy),
extremely sweet and delicious OF flavor
vine, moderately course, rampant and
middlingly-iong grower; caves, entire
mot forked or divided like those of the
yellow yam) and of dark, rich green,
inclined to glossy flowers, purplish
and numerous in the latitude of Mobile.
There is certainly popularity about
the flavor OF this potato-it is something
that might be termed absolutely perfect
Entirely sweet enough for any Southern
taste, nothing of the pumpkin flavor OBJ |
iectionable to many, and apparently |
nothing wanting. One is at once made |
aware of this peculiarly when testing it
against the old yellow yam; in such test |
it's flavor will appear to be everything |
that could be desired, while there will
seem to be something lacking, as in the
case of biscuit without salt, to make per-
feet the flavor of the old yellow yam.
The Peruvian yam is an immense
yielder, can get along on land as poor
as can any of the inferior potatoes, is as
hardy as any Of them and can fully equal
them in puttingup with neglect and rough
usage. AS a keeper through the winter
it has no superior. What more could we
ask in the way of sweet potato?
