Senator Champion gives to the State Re-
publican this opinion OF the legislative visits
to the various state institutions: "PeOple
talk about junkets, and its being snap,
etc. tell you never put I'm harder week
I'm my life. Meals and hunks when and
where we could get them, and hours and
days peeking into every nook and corner,
smelling out disease germs and bad manage
ment. There's no boys play about it."
"How did the committee find the asylums;
as greatly overcrowded as has been report
ed?"
"Yes, even more so; the public has no
idea of the condition of these institutions in
that respect. Why, at Traverse City we
found patients lying In Jail, waiting for
others to die to make room for Them"
"What relief do you think the committee
will suggest?"
"We have not reached any definite con-
clusion as yet, but think the cottage plan
will be recommended and perhaps another
asylum"
Apropos of the fact that the present in

of fact that there are now pending before
several different State legislatures very in
teresting bills providing for inheritance
taxes, the Review of Reviews meets the de-
mand for information on this subject by

special study to the question, the completest
International article upon the workings of

Hawaii.
New York Press.

New York Press
The action of the people of Hawaii in de-
posing their Queen and sending representa-
tives to ask for annexation TO the United
States has excited intense interest abroad
England, France and Germany have long
recognized the commercial and strategic
value of Hawaii. The dethroned Queen,
who sought to overthrow the Hawaiian
Constitution and substitute autOcratic power
for the limited monarchy which has existed
in the little island kingdom, is said to have
been particularly susceptible to British in
fiuence. 1t is absolutely certain that fail
ure on the part of the United States to take
advantage of the action of the Hawaiians
will be followed by the seizure of the islands
by some European power. In all proba-
bllity England would be the aggressOr.
Such contingency is not to be thought
of. Patriotic Americans of all shades of
political opinion can be depended upon to
support the government in asserting the
paramount claims of the United States in
Hawaii. So far as its business and real
estate are concerned Hawaii is American
already. 1t is owned chiefly by Americans,
its commerce is almost entirely with us, and
the sentiment in favor of annexation to this
country has been steadily growing in volume
for years. 1t must be remembered that no
force or lntimlOatlOn mas Deen exercised by
the United States. The movement to place
Hawaii under our flag has been purely
voluntary. The facts show that there is an
overwhelming public sentiment on the
islands I'm favor of annexation to this cOun-
try or of protectorate by the United
States. AS for the Queen herself, she has
forfeited her claims to sovereignty by her
attempted usurpation.
The American element Is predominant
among the foreign population, and, as we
have pointed out, American interests are
far i'm the front of all others combined.
American coins are the only foreign coins
recognized as legal tender equally with
Hawaiian money. The islands are bound
to us already by enduring ties, and no for
eign power can be permitted to lay hands
upon them. They are of immense value
for naval purposes. Little expenditure
would be necessary to establish Hawaiian
naval station that would be practically
impregnable. AS a factor in promoting the
American commerce of the future Hawaii is
OF the utmost Importance. Whether pro-
tectOrate or formal annexation is decided
upon, one fact Is beyond all doubt or ques-
ton. The Hawaiian Island cannot be- per-
mitted TO pass under any but American
jurisdiction.

"THE UNEARNED INCREMENT.
A Story of Horr Versus George.

Some months ago debate was arranged
between Hon. r. G.. Horr, formerly Mich
igan Congressman, now widely known
Tribune writer and gifted lecturer, and
Henry George.
The debate was held at Syracuse, n. Y,
and was fairly conducted i'm the presence of
over 1000 people, of whom 600 or more were
friends of Mr.. George, who came expecting
to see his opponent used up.
The single tax advocate opened by an
argument for 1.-THE Unearned Increment" as
the basis of his theory for taxing only land.
When he closed Mr.. Horn came forward
and said. II have a book entitled Progress
and Poverty Did you write this book?"
The author answered, YES" and HOrr
continues: 81 find something in that book
which surprises me. On Its title page is an
inscription showing it copyrighted by Henry
George. Did you copyright that boOk?"
Aid again its author said: YES" the
audience waiting curiously to see what all
this meant.
''Well," said Mr.. Horn, sit is well writ
ten book, although do not indOrse its
views, and it is fair that your labor in writ
ing 1t should be paid. / should say $1,000
yes, $5OOO-was due you for your work as
its author. But your publishers say that
over 100000 have been printed and sold
Now you did no work in printing, publishing,
sending over the land or selling it. You
just sat still and raked in from your copy
right some $50, 900 or $40, 900 of 'unearned
increment which by that copyright you
compelled your dealers to pay you, and now
you say nobody but landowners should be
taxed for such increment l am greatly
surprisedp
The audience laughed and shouted loud
and long, the two hours were filled with the
talks of the two debaters, but from this
used-up man, If the actions of the hearers
and the ovation of the throng crOwding
around II. G. Horr at the close were any
standard of judgment. Since then Mr..
George has not met Mr.. Horr in debate,
probably never will.

James G. Blaine.

New York Press.
The death of James G. Blaine removes
the most eminent citizen of the American
Republic that has passed away since Gen
eral Grant. Now that the great civil leader
has gone from the scenes of the political
strife I'm which he gained distinction sur
passed by no other in this generation, all
will be ready to do homage to his matchless
genius for craftsmanship, his unwavering
fidelity to principle, his staunch devotion
to the interests of America as against the
world. Mr.. Blaine was a typical American.
Born In that great commonwealth within
whose borders liberty was proclaimed
throughout all the land, that commonwealth
which is In fact as In name the Keystone
State of the Union, James G. Blaine spent
his early manhood in the rugged atmosphere
of New England, that nursery OF A merican
craftsmanship and cradle of American pa
triotism. He possessed by Inheritance and
instinct those qualities which have made the
American character distinctive and illus
trious. He was reared amid Surroundings
calculated to develop vigorous, forceful and
masterful qualities. He was not a child of
luxury. He had to make his own way to
eminence and to affiuence, and he achieved
his high place In the trust and confidence Of
the American people wholly through his
personal efforts and deserts.

TO the Editor OF The Times;

faults, comprise a large, Industrious ana
otpable body of citizens.
The following letter to the Baltimore
Sun explains itself:
Mr.. W Ellinger, an intelligent oyster
planter Of Fox Island. Va, furnishes the
Sun the following views on the existing
troubles and the remedy. Mr.. Ellinger
says
Il fail to see any connection between
the existing oyster trouble in this locality

between the Commonwealth Of Virginia

this question II must be settled by the
legally constituted authorities CT both
States and not by the oystermen. Neither
does IL stand to reason that the oyster
men would risk their lives and property
On such an issue. / take The cause or
the Il ouble to be primarily the exhaustion
of the Maryland oyster beds. intensified
by the hardshps OF an unprecedented
wintc- and also by the fact that only
few weeks remain before the dredging
season closes. Can any reasonable man
believe that Maryland oystermen would
imperil their all TO obtain oysters in Vir-
glria which could Re had in Maryland
without any risk or peril whatever? The
Fact is that the Maryland FISHERMAN can
not recoup his losses in his own State.
The Virginia oyster beds which he is
now raiding are the richest that remain

oystermen had a free hand there they
could in the short time remaining before
the season closes make up their losses.
This is the tempting bait Nothing has
ever occurred which more conclusively

disinterested and farseeing men that the
oyster beds OF Maryland were being
rapidly depleted. In the face OF all these
happenings what becomes Of statements

The same reckless course which has
depleted the Maryland oyster beds will.

haust our beds. But above all things our
remedy lies in oyster planting, the only
source from which now Tidewater Nir-
ginians can ever hope to derive an oyster
revenue.
