The Morning Record of Chicago. which
has always been an ardent supporter OF
President Cievelani refers to his recently
announced Hawaiian policy as "A disgrace
fal proposition mi declares that the po-
.ii5u of the administration is unreasonable
fantastic. and dishonest. The Record
makes very strong point against Gresham
In the pertinent inquiry If the facts were
as the secretary says how comes It that the
Il p.omstic representatives of foreign nations
scauissceA in Min,ster stevens sytsf How
/. IL that Mr.. Glsdstonss government in
open Parliament, has tscitly approved of
these sctsf" This is question that all
who are disposed to endorse the astounding
policy outlined by Secretary Gresham will
do we'll to consider.

THE PHILOSOPHER.

II we would overcome the laws Of nature.
we must not resist; We must balance them
against one another.
There is nothing ignominious about pow.
erty. 1t may even serve as a healthy slim.
illus to great spirits.
1t is not in our open exposed deeds that
we need the still voice OF the silent monitor
but in the small secret everyday acts of life
There is less misery In being cheated than
in that kind of wisdom which perceives, OIL
thinks it perceives, that all mankind are
cheats.
If we could read the secret history of oui
enemies, we should find in each mans life
sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all
hostility.
A face which is always serene possesses
mysterious and powerful attraction. Sad
hearts come to it as to the sun to warm
themselves again.
Work paves the only way leading tc
knowledge The way is long one and the
difficulties in it are many, but step by steI
it can be traversed if labor be the guide.
You must not only work, but you must
order your work with intelligence; you
must be preparing the way for what you
want to become, as well as do what lies tc
your hand.-Montreal Star.

Claus Spreckies Pleased.


Claus Spreckles, the sugar king, who is
naturally delighted At the proclamation re-
storing monarchy in Hawaii, says; Men
ho represent the so-called provisional gov
ment had no more right TO depose the
Queen Of Hawaii and assume control of the
government machiaery than | you'd to
demand of President Cleveland his
seat al Washington" As for Spreekles's
right 10 demand on the President,
that is for him to decide; but be
will hardly deny that the provisional
government had rs much right to demand
the zbdication of Liliuokalani a. the French
had to request the abdication Of Louis Phil
lipe or the Americans to cas-, off the power
Of George the Third in America.
In both these cases the right" of the
matter, from the Sprsckles point Of view,
was with Louis and George; yet the revo-
lntions have always been popular in the
United States. Have we been admiring
rank injustice all these yearsl

The kisg Can Do No Wrong.


Minister Stevens and all the Hawaiian
commissioners testify that the United States
had no hand whatever in bringing about the
revolution in Hawaii. Mr.. Blount takes
the contrary view. 1t is half dozen against
one, but the one, it must be remembered,
had been clothed With paramount authority
from Mr.. Cleveland. In that g.rb he could
not be mistaken no- tell a lie. When he
vas so clothed the mantle of infslhbility
covered HIM and that settles it. No matter

Long Series Of Fresh Possibilities.


The surprising md unpatriotic course of
the administration in the Hawaiian affairs
has created long series of fresh pOssibili-
ties. Among them is one that Secretary
Gresham neglected TO mention in his report.
If, As he alleges, an injustice has been
done the proiligate Queen, that injustice
will not be wholly discharged by the res
toration of her rotten and corrupt regime.
She has right to demand of the
United States considerable indem-
nifty for having been so long kept out of
her right" to plumber the people of the
islands.
Mr.. Cleveland will no doubt see the
moral obligation involved and order the
prompt payment of eight or ten millions out
of the public treasury.
II he has right to order the restoration,
he has Il right to do this, too.
