There is yet stronger argument for the
occupancy Of Honolulu. The occupancy
of Honolulu is simply vital to our COM
mercial relations with the world, as the
cutting of the Nicaragua canal across
the isthmus approaches. Honolulu Is
right at the focus OF it all. Ships
crossing from the Atlantic to the Pacific
will have TO coal at Honolulu. Consider,
also. that the great channel OF commerce
in days to come will be the great North
Pacific. But more than this, they have
asked us-they have appealed to us-to
open our arms to them. 1t is Just as
much our duty to colonize them now in

of their autonomy, as it was our duty to
Chustianize them years ago. They are
not fools. They have seen the interests

IRRrpARARLE INJrRY.

Think OF this beautiful pleiad cluster
Of isles, practically captured by Eng
land in 1913. What has England really
done for her? Nothing. Did l say
nothing? She has done her irreparable
injury. While assuming TO care nothing
for the domination OF Hawaii, she shows
her hand through Canada, her colonial
representative. The great aim OF he
Canadian Pacific railway is to supplant
San Francisco in the trade with Austria
lia. 1t looks little hard to them that the
commercial tribute OF trade Of their great
sister colony on the other side OF the
Pacific should be paid to rival cousin
and not to themselves, thus seriously
shutting out Canadian influence in the
great North Pacific. In securing the
defeat of Mr.. Blalne's late treaty Canada
and England through Canada-for old
England Is behi d it all-did Hawaii and
herself a. great an injury as she did to
the seal-fur trade Of Alaska and Lon
don. The sudden drop in the price
of sugar in the United States, conse-
auent upon the reciprocity treaty with
Brazil and Cuba, lifts them up but lets
Hawaii down, and they have nobody to
blame for it but themselves and Eng
land. England cannot live to-day unless
fed with the crumbs which fall from
Americas table. She is virtually herself

The great West is preparing to open to
the world a commerce which the modern
world has never dreamed OF, and which,
in spite of British bottoms, England can
hardly 80 much as conceive. Take
France; she did just as England did. She
made treaty with Hawaii under which
everything was admitted free but spirits
France disagreed about the I'D uatOren'.
and demanded reduction or revocation.
Little Hawaii refused. France sent a
fleet, took possession of the fort, spiked
the guns, razed the walls, destroyed every
vessel in the harbor, and sailed away
no resistance being made to their acts OF
violence. To-day there are twelve
French residents on the island, but
the name OF France is hated. 1t is,
therefore, evident that France can do no
thing for them. The United States is the
only. power that can establish in what
ever form it may see fit such a firm pro.
tectorate as will secure the rights OF all
its people. The claims of commercial
enterprises to it all rest more largely
with the United States than any otheI
nation. Nearly equi-distant from Cali

THE FIELD-TRIALS
AnteyOlO and Dick Fox Among
the Winners.

In the field-trials of the Southern
Field-Trials Club, recently run at New
Albany, Miss, the second place in the
Derby Stake was won by Dick Fox, the
black. white.and-tan English setter
owned by the e-Ridge Kennels, OF
Sperryyille, Va. He was one of the best
Young dogs in the stake and was Justly
awarded the honor that was bestowed
upon him. :.
The All-Age Stake WAS run immedi-
ately after the Derby, and there were
nineteen entries, among them being the
famous Antevolo, granddaughter of old
Trinket.
Atthe conclusion OF the stake the judges
announced the following winners:
Whyte b. first /; AntevolO second, Novel
jst third. Antevolo, the winner OF
second, as is well known. isa Richmond
bred setter. Her dam Is Trlnket H.,
daughter of old Trinket, and her sire
was the renowned Count Noble. Ante
volo has been incorrectly reported in
some of the sporting journals as being
the daughter of GladstOne's Girl.
She was purchased while owned IN
Richmond by Mr.. p. Lorillard, Jr., and
in addition to being grand field
trial dog is frequently used by her
owner for his own private shooting. She
is dog OF wonderful speed and endu-
rance, is a very wide ranger, Is quick
and accurate in her bird-work, and in
her style of going is superb. She was
worked in tine trials by the noted
handler and trainer Charles Tucker,
who has always regarded her as one OF
the greatest settlers OF her class now
living. She has made three winnings IN
field trials, and her work Is OF very
high class.
Lora. owned by Mr.. P. Lorillard, Jr..
another granddaughter of Trinket and
the phenomenal tield-trial winner Of the
present age, was booked for the All-Age
Stake. but had to be withdrawn just be-
fore the trials begun. as she was threat
ened with distemper and judged by her
brilliant work Of the past, II her health
had permitted her to enter the contest,
the first as well as the second honor
would have been carried of by the Trim
ket stock.
Among the well-known settlers defeat
ed by Antevolo were Novelist, daughter
of the great Roderigo, and Bo Peep,
Rupert, and Bettye s., OF the same
breeding. and fremont, son OF Glad
stones Boy and Speckle Gown.

DRAMATIC ATTRACTIONS.
"Master and Man"---Jeffrcys
Country Circus"

LeWfS---"t country tIrcuS.
"Master and Man." the play in which
Richard Mansfield took the part of
Humpy Logan, is one of the best
sensational comedy-dramas Of the day.
The play this season is said to have
undergone a remarkable change. The
management speak very highly of what
is termed the "great iron-works
scene" and the farm scene, and the VII
lage green and the illuminated chapel
are said to be very pretty stage effects.
The company is said TO be excellent. 10
will be seen at the Theatre on Monday.
Tuesday, and Wednesday OF this week.
JEFFREys LEWIS.
Commencing on Thursday and con-
Timing until Saturday, with matinee
on the latter day, Jeifreys Lewis will
play here for the first time in eight
years. On Thursday evening tire play
will bo Forget Ne Not" in which Miss
Lewis created the part OF Stephanie In
this country. On Friday evening Sar-
dou's powerful play, "Clothilde." will
be given, and on Saturday Belasco's
romantic drama, "La Belle Russe,"
will be put on. The bill for the matinee
is to be announced later.
In all three of these plays Miss Lewis
has won renown, though "Clothilde y
is said to present her in the best light,
and this engagement affords our theatre
goers an opportunity to see woman
who is powerful delIAeator OF emotional
rolcs. Miss Lewis undoubtedly IL q
strong and finished actress, and her
creations are always markedly refined
and artistic. She is surrounded by an
excellent company, Of whom much may
be expected.
a WINTER CIRCUS.
1t is almost superhuous to refer to the
success OF G. b. Jefferson, Klaw &
Erlanger's Country Circus" which
comes to the Academy of Music next
Thursday evening for an engagement OF
three nights and Saturday matinee. This
is one OF the distinct successes OF tho
present theatrical season. The crowds
that have tested the capacity OF the
theatres wherever it has been seen suffi-
ciently demonstrates this fact. Not
alone to the novelty. but to the genuine
merit of the show itself. may
this success be attributed. Tho
parade at the end Of the third
act is without doubt one OF the most
original spectacles that have been seen
on the boards for many day. while the
ring performance, with which the enter
tainment concludes, is nothing else than
the counterpart of lattsr-day tented
show, all tho grosser features being
eliminated, and the most refined, most
daring, and most amusing exhibitions
alone retained. This will be one OF the
biggest stage productions that have ever
visited this city, requiring several cars
to transport company, paraphernalia,
and numerous animals.
1.-The Country Circus Company will
arrive at the Union Depot by special
train on Thursday noon.

are assured OF a naval station in Pearl
harbor, the only harbor that amounts to
anything in the Polynesian group. Our
commercial relations are greater by far
than those of any other nation. Ire
mendous forms of industry can be es'
tablished there, such as the sugar in
terest aud others.
All such preponderating commercial
arguments in favor of the United States
seizing the opportunity to take posses
sion of Honolulu foreshadow certain
political changes which must inevitably
take place. not only in our relations
with Hawaii, but also in any form of
government that may be adopted there.
One thing at least is certain-viz., that
the principles Of American government
by the people are penetrating the
dark places Of the world and striking
of the shackles of slavery. Homo
lulu has but $4,000 natives left out OF
400 900. The cry " Hawaii for Ha-
waiians is now too late. They are out
voted by an out-populating stock.
There must at this stage be strong
government to give security to the affairs
of the archipelago. There are no Sc
rious risks 10 run save in not taking
possession of the islands at once. 1t
would be step toward barbarism for
America TO refuse TO accede some rela-
ton, territorial, State, or protectorate, to
n people whom its own missionaries,
first OF all others, had civilized.
