Springer VIII Do His Whole Duty


sNow let Hawaii Alone"
Il IL not about Hawaii that The chorus and
che ouokoos arc concerned. What they
mean L. this!
.Now let Mr.. CLEVELAND and his policy
eftnfamy alone"
That cannot be. Neither Hawaii nor Mr..
CLEVELAND will be let alone. The policy Of
thfamy which Mr.. CLEVELAND ounningly
attempted to execute In darkness and
secrecy, without the authority Of Congress-
will be openly and squarely proposed to
Congress by the one Democrat In Congress
who sincerely shares the Presidents ideas
ofwhat right, Justice. and morality require
Our Government to do In Hawaii.
While other Democrats in Congress are
silent, the Hon. WILLIAM MoKENDRRn
SRRmaEB Of Illinois will offer at the
earliest opportunity Joint resolution de-
claring that inasmuch as o great wrong
has been committed In Hawaii In the name
Of the United States and by the interposl-
ton Of its armed forces. "this Govern ment
must restore to the Queen her own armed
fprces, and must disarm the forces Of the
Provisional Government. which were armed
and equipped by the aid and under the pro-
lection OF our navy. Anything short OF
this is mookery Of Justice. a disgrace to
our diplomacy. Is unworthy OF o Christian
nation. and a travesty upon our devotion
10 the principles OF local self-government."
That is about the language Of the resolu-
ton which Brother SPRINGER will offer.
after the holiday vacation. In proposing to
Congress O declaration OF war against
Hawaii to restore the Queen. and to carry
out the enterprise which Mr.. CLEVELAND
attempted upon his own responsibility, and
In which he 80 dlsgraoefully failed.
That is about the language Of the resolu-
ton which Mr.. SPRINGER Is preparing, for
It is the language which he has already en-
ployed In discussing publicly the duty OF
this nation to the deposed Queen.
Mr.. SPRNoER's convictions are known.
Does anybody suppose that he lacks the
courage to express them In the House OF
Representatives as soon as he gets q
chance2 That would be to assume that the
Hon. WILLIAM MoKENDRKE SPRINGER is
mere craven vaporer.
Mr.. SPRISoEB's speech for war upon
Hawaii to reestablish the savage and idola-
trous throne, will doubtless be the oulmi-
mating effort Of his long public career. We
shall take care to repeat 1t. every word.
He will do his duty. Hawaii will not be
let alone II Mr.. SPRINGER is the earnest
man We believe him to be.

There are many people who doubt tho
good faith OF the Mormons when they cay that
poygamy has been abolished among them.
The Mormon allegation receives strong sup
port in tho fact that the anti Mormon party OF
Utah. which has fought against Mormonism
for thirty years, chiefly because It was q polya-
amous religion. has been dlsbanded by vote
OF It's members There will be neither Nor
mon party nor an anti Mormon party here
after In Utah. The adversaries OF polygamy
have conceded that that abominable institu-
tlon has gone out OF existence though It has
taken them years to reach the conviction that
the laws OF the United States and the ordi-
nance OF the Mormon Church against IL could
ever be enforced. The political parties In
Utah will from this time onward be the same
as In other parts OF the United States. and will
be relieved from trouble over local question
which has long been the cause OF bitter ami
mositiea One OF the chief objections to the
Statehood Of the Territory OF Utah. urged for
over twenty years. has been the existence Of
polygamy there.

Judge Miller summed up the testimony
and said that the proof showed clearly Mrs.
Albrights guilt. The ofrense. he said, was
a serious one and deserved more than pass
ing notice. The judge said that In almost
every case OF this kind, where the landlord
or landlady sublet the house and took
ooard In part payment for rent, there was
trouble.
Mrs. Albright was fined 800 and costs and
the court gave her until today to pay the
