Catholic Irish girl, consented to adopt Mo

THE SUNDAY STAMP. who have no scru-
pies in the matter may avail themselves of
che usual Sunday deliveries.
The device is a little tag attached to the
usual stamp directing in two languages
French and Dutch-that the letter bearing
it is not to be delivered on Sunday. The
French inscription reads, me pas livrer lie
Dimanche," and the Dutch, MET bestellen
op Zondag.' If those using these stamps
have no objection to their letters being de-
livered on Sunday. they need only tear off
the tag containing the order and place the
upper portion of the stamp upon the envel-
ope
These stamps have just been issued, and
only a few of them, mostly of the 10 cen
time variety, have as yet been received in
this country. the complete series contains
nine varieties, valued at |, 3, 5, 10, 20, 25and
30 centimes and and francs. All of them
bear the sane design, but the colors are
different. The profile on the stamp is that
of King Leopold H.
The educationsl effect of the new stamps
will undoubtedly be, as theminister hopes
very great and may ultimately lead to the
abandonment of Sunday collections and de-
liveries The religious people are not the
only ones who will take advantage of them.
Those who ar in favor of giving postal em-
ployees aholiday will also undoubtedly use
them freely while those to whom Sunday
delivery is not of Importance and habtualiy
careless and forgetful people will swell the
number of persons leaving the tag attach
ed. If any considerable majority of the
Be gian people were to thus indirectly ex-
pross their sentiment or lack of sentiment
in the matter, Sunday mails in Belgium
would soon be IA thing of the past. In the
meantime philatellists have something
new to busy themselves about.

WE DO NOT NEED Hawaii

We do not need colonies, but when
we do we ought to get one nearer home
than 2Ioo miles and lying more com
pactly than this group of islands, If
this pear we're ripe, and we wanted
pears, we ought not to pull it, but it is
not ripe, We can always have all the
influence here that we wish. The
commerce of the islands is naturally
and inevitably with US, Their contract
and semi-servile labor system, neCes-
sary to their prosperity and productive
ness, is repugnant to our institutions
and to our customs neCessitates laws
justly hateful to our working people,
and collects here a mongrel population
which is not fitted to one system OF
government
Surely the influence Of the planters
over legislation is great and the com
plalsance of the preponderant native
members goes far when such a Consti-
tuti0nal amendment as the following
regulating labor" can be passed. as
this was in 1890 and again in 1892 -
The Legislature may hom time to time enact
such laws as it may deem proper for the super.
vision and control and identification Of all per
sons Of any one class or nationality who may
be introduced into the kingdom for the pur-
pose Of performing agricultural labor, and may
also by law restrict and limit the term Of resi-
dence in the kingdom Of such agricultural
laborers and the business and employment in
which they may engage,
That is to say they are given power
not only to establish plantation or
inter island passport system for the con
tract Of other laborer, thus limiting his
already narrow right Of passage from

repeat what | have before written,
the planters are not inhuman, and they
are an amiable and in many ways an
excellent set of persons. 1t is the sys.
tenn on which their property and that
Of the Islands depends which requires,
in the nature of things, such powers and
regulations.
l do not believe the free workingmen
of the United States will agree that
such a system shall be incorporated as
part of the United States by anneXa
ton They would be great fools il
they did. They might as well in that
case give up their labor organizations
and throw up their hands.
