Cleveland Favors Annexation

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb 2-Don NJ. .
Dickinson talks rather freely, and
when questioned about his mission
here acknowledged in anInlcrvlru that
unless the present congress repeals the
Sherman law there will be an extra
session. Mr.. Dickinson says he is
heartily In favor Of the annexation of
Hawaii aud says the next war, if we
have one, will be on the ocean, and
that we must have the Hawaiian
islands. II there is an extra session
certainly it will be to consider the Ha-
waiian annexation, il it, too, is not set
tied by that time. These remarks from
Don Dickinson, who is just from Cleve-
land, are taken AS Clcvelaud's own
views on the Hawaiian situation.
