SOUND HORSE SENSE.
A Great American Journals Annexation
Argument.


The following is copied from the
New York Sm-at once the ablest
and clearest headed of American
journals:
What is to be done with Hawaii !?
Mr.. Cleveland has Withdrawn from the
Senate the treaty entered into by his
predecessor for the annexation of the
islands, but whether with view to kill
ing the project or merely to SO modify
ing it as to make it unquestionably an
affair of his own Administration re-
mains to be seen.
This country made no mistake when
it annexed Louisiana. 1t made no
mistake when it annexed Florida. 1t
m1de no mistake when it annexed
Texas. 1t made no mistake when it
annexed California and New Mexico
1t made no mistake when it annexed
Alaska. 1t has never made a mistake
in any of its anneXations.
But it probably made mistake when
it did not annex St. Thomas. That
looked like a small matter, and it was
small compared with the great additions
to our territory on the main land. Yet
ever since ST. Thomas was rejected, oul
government has been hunting for a
Caribbean station. At one time il
struggles to gain footho,d on SANTANA
Bay; at another, ii suffers Notifying
repulses in its efforts to acquire Mole
St. Nicholas; it has even studied the
availability of Chiriqui Lagoon for its
purposes, but we remain to this day
without a naval and coaling station il
the West Indies.
Hawaii is the strategic centre of the
Pacific. 1t is at the cross roads of the
great ocean, lying where the routes
from the United States and British
Columbia to Australia and New Zea
and intersect with those from the 18th
mus to China and Japan. Only {
great blunder could fail to secure il
now.
1t is astonishing to hear annexation
spoken of as if it were something to be
shrunk from or ashamed Of VIVA
great nation has ever been anything
else than annexationist Is it France
Italy, Russia, Germany, or England
Annexation has been the American
policy since the foundation of the Tn
ion. Without it, this country would
have been to-day fringe of communi
ties on the Atlantic seaboard, shut VI
between powerful neighbors. Its con
troll of the c ntinent is due to the pol
icy Of annexation, put into practica
operation by Jefferson ninety years ago
In those days too, as many objeC
tons were trumped up against thi
policy as now. 1t was urged that the
title of France to Louisiana was Contin
gent; that an amendment of the Consti
tuition would be needed to make thu
people of Louisiana citizens, as the
treaty proposed; that the boundaries o
the tract purchased were too indefinite
All this seems trivial enough now, il
view Of the great benefit sure to bt
gained; but such was the captious tall
then, and even bribery was charged
In those days, too, there was the SAINT
conservative timidity that is nantes

ST. ANDREWS TROUBLES.
Rev. Alexander Macintosh Says There
is no Schism.

Rev. Alexander Macintosh Says There
is no Schism.
1t appears that the word "schsm"
used in last nights STAR to describe
the trouble between the First and
Second Congregations of St Andrews
Cathedral, has an ecclesiastical meaning
apart from that given in the dictionary.
The photographers analyze the word in
this way:
1. In a general sense, division or
separation; but appropriately, division
or separation in a church or denomina
ton of Christians, occasioned by diver.
sity of opinions; breach of unity among
people Of the same religious faith.
In scripture the word seems to denote
breach Of charity, rather than a differ
ence of doctrine,
2. Separation; division among tribes
and classes of people.
As Bishop Willis said that the trouble
was competitive and unfriendy and
that spirit of antagonism had develop
ed between people of the same house
hold Of faith, the word "schsm" seemed
to be the only one that would fit the
case. In settling the meaning of a
word the dictionary is the only guide tc
newspaper, even # a hundred arbitrary
definitions of such word have beer
wrought out.
This is by way of introduction to The
following letter by Rev. AIexandeI
Mackintosh:

A JUST DEMAND.

The Portuguese of these islands are
strong annexationists. They took part
in the revolution and many of them are
yet on military duty. In addition to
this they are good citizens Their first
effort, after settling here, was to get
homes of their own and to become re
sponsible members of the body polite,
Their children go to school, learn
American history there, and are then
taught habits of industry and thrift
Almost to a man the Portuguese want
to see Hawaii in the Union.
These people are now asking to be
recognized in the government and ii

in the Advisory Council and they woulC
like to have a representative of their
