The aggregate area of all the
islands is 6,400 square miles.
The four uninhabited islets
are named Nihoa, Laula, Lehau
and Molokini. AS will be seen
Hawaii has an area nearly double
that of all the other islands put
together. Almost the whole of
its surface is occupied by the
gentle slopes of four volcanic
mountains, Mauna Kea, on the
north, 13,S05 feet in height (the
highest peak in hePacific ocean)
Mauna Loa on the south, 13,600
feet; Mauna Hualalai on the
west, S,275 feet; and Mauna Ko4
hala, on the northwest, $500
feet. Mauna Loa is the most i'm
teresting mountain of the whole
group from it's being still an ac-
tive volcano. There have been
many eruptions, the last of which
took place in 1877. One of the
eruptions of 1868 caused huge
sea wave forty feet high to break
on the shore, occasioning the loss

As the REPoRT las contained
much news matter relative to the
annexation of TIE Hawaiian is
lands and as considerable inter
est IS manifest on the subject,
the following article from the
Tacoma Ledger gives a good de-
scliption Of the country, people,
resources, ETC., and will better
, enable our readers to understand
the importance of annexation to
the United States:
The group pconsists of eight in
habited sn four uninhabited
islands~in the North Pacific
ocean, lying between IS degrees
81 minutessand % degrees 2 min
utes north latitude, and 155 de-
grees and 191 degrees west longi-
tude. From Honolulu, the
capitol, on Oahu, the distance to
Tacoma is $500 miles; to Auck-
land, New Zealand, 3,810 miles;
to Sydney, New South Wales,
4,4S4 miles; to Yokohama, 8, 44O
miles; to Hong Kong, 1898
miles; to Tahite, 1850 miles.
The first of the names by which
the group is designated above, is
taken from that of the largest
island, Hawaii, and is the name
adopted by the inhabitants. The
above name was given to it by
Captain Cook, the discoverer, in
honor of the Earl of Sandwich,
first lord of the admiralty at the
time Of the discovery in 177S.
The following description of
the separate islands begins with
the largest and most easterly,
giving the others in the order of
their position;
Cottonwood report. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1893-1901, 1893-02-17

1000 feet. The valleys are re-
markable for beautiful scenery,
peaks, cascades, ravines and trop-
ical vegetation, combining to
charm the eye. The island of
Kauai is twenty three miles from
Molokai and contains some of
the best watered and most fertile
land in the entire group. Niihau,
the most westerly island of the
group, is fifteen miles west of
Kauai. This is the property of
a foreigner, who pastures about
$4,000 sheep upon it. By the
census of 1878 the population of
the whole group was shown to be
1885, but is now estimated at
about 10000. The natives be-
long to the Malayo Polynesian
race. Their reddish brown skin
has been compared to the hue of
tarnished copper. The hair,
usually raven black, is straight,
or at most, wavy; the beard is
thin, the face broad, the profile
not prominent, the nose rather
fattened and the lips thick. The
bulk of the population are of
moderate stature, but the chiefs
and the women of their families
are remarkable for height. Phys
ically, the Hawaiians are among
the finest races in the Pacific.
In the former state of society the
habits of the people were ex-
tremely licentious. Female vir-
tue was an unknown thing, and
there is no native word for it.
This state of things has, however,
been greatly altered by the efforts
Of the missionaries.
The climate is generally warm
but very salubrious, the tempera-
ture is equable and the sky usu-
ally cloudless. The mean tenn
perature of the coldest month is
about 62 degrees, and that of the
hottest month 81 degrees, Strong
gales blow once or twice a year,
but there are no destructive hur-
ricanes. Cattle, goats and hogs
run wild on the mountains in
the larger islands.
AS to the religion of the ma.
tives, the idolatrous practices
have been abandoned since 1919,
and the whole population have
embraced Christianity, several Of
the denominations being repre-
sented.
Honolulu has a population OF
about 10000, and presents more
the appearance of a civilized
place than any other town in
Polynesia. The streets, laid out
in the American style, e,are straight
neat and tidy. Water works
supply the town from q neigh.
boring valley, Among the stone
buildings are the kings house, a
hospital, large hotel built by
the government and the govern.
ment buildings. Among the
brick buildings are large iron
works, a brass foundry, an estab'
lishment for working up iron and
a rice mill. All the necessaries
and most of the luxuries of civ
ilized life can be obtained in
Honolulu. There are several fins
hotels for the accommodation o.
strangers. Honolulu has a.good
natural harbor with wharves, &
custom house and warehouses.

amendments. One by Mr.. Ma

Mr.. Barrett's liquor bill was
passed by vote of % to 8. The
bill provides that an applicant
for license must secure a petit
ton, signed by 25 resident free
holders. The license is fixed at
5000 a year in towns where at
the preceding election 200 votes
were cast for governor, and $500
in all others. The bill requires
druggists and all others who sell
liquor to take out a retail license,
and it makes stringent provis-
sion against the sale of intoxi-
cants to minors and habitual
drunkards.
LEGISLATIVE BALL.
Arrangements are being made
for an elaborate legislative ball
on Monday evening next. A
largely attended meeting Of busi-
ness men was held this afternoon

sent a message to Legislature call
ing attention to the meeting OF

suggesting that arrangements be
made to send delegates. The
governor says in part; "The voice
of Idaho should be raised at the
meeting in no uncertain manner,
not only by Our Representatives
to congress, but by a delegation
of citizens sent from this state to
aid them"

THE OTHER SIDE.

The RECoRD-UNIoN has repeatedly
assailed the disposition to push women
into business. 1t has freely, sharply ex-
pressed its thought upon the drift of
young women into shop life and away
from domestic service, housewifery, the
fine arts, domesticity and the attributes
of womanhood. In no position that it
has ever taken upon this subject has it
ever found reason for retreat. The more
it examines the question, the more posi-
tive is its conviction, the stronger the
proofs which present of the soundness of
its doctrine. But a Sacramento woman
whose talent, life, courage and genius
command respect for her from all the
people, replies TO some incisive questions
the RECoRD-UNIoN put; replies with wit.
vigor and grace which command our
admiration. We solicit for our corre-
spondent's article as full and generous
reading as has been given to the RECORD
UNIONS assaults upon what we shall
continue to maintain is a lamentable evil
and most positive evidence of social de-
cadence.

AN ARTICLE ALL SHOULD READ

ON another page we print an article
from the Philadelphia Recon d that every
citizen of this and all the cities of Califor-
mia should read. The humblest house
holder is deeply interested in it, since it
concerns direct tax he monthly pays,
and in as large amount in most cases as
his weather. neighbor.
The article is a complete history of
garbage cremation and a detailed descrip-
ton of all the incinerator machines in use
in this country, with statement of the
practical operation Of these devices in
this and in European countries.
We trust that this paper will be read
carefully and critically by city officials,
and that the estimates we have set out in
the introduction will be severely ex-
amined and any possible error in them
exposed. The RECORD UNION is con-
cerned only in the development of the
truth, the best interests of the community
and the highest sanitary condition of the
homes of the people.
Our estimates of the simple economies
OF cremation, not at all taking into ac-
count the sanitary gains, we thus sum-
marize, and refer our readers to the article
referred to in support of the same:
The record-union., 1893-05-13

The OregoniGn declares that if Oregon
had 10000 more Chinese now it would be
better for everyone, as they are needed to
clear heavily timbered lands, since after all
possible efforts made it is impossible to
get white men to do the work. Land
clearing is at a dead standstill in the
Northwest simply because white laborers
will not engage in the woodman's art.
Yet from the Pacific Coast cities the "un-
Employed are daily sending out circu-
lars of woe and declaring that thousands
of strong men are starving. The Ore
gOnidR is not pro-Chinese, has and does
oppose unrestricted Chinese immigration
and declares still that the Chinese are un-
desirable, because REPRESENTATIVE and
not possible of being incorporated into
American civilization. The Oreoonta,s
declares that even highest wages fail to
induce white men to go upon lands and
clear them for the owners; indeed, that
where the land has been offered for the
timber felled, white men tip-tilt their
noses and will not swing the ak, even
when the ak and all the comforts of home
were guaranteed during the labor.
