HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.

Within the past few days the people of
Hawaii Islands have furnished the world
the spectacle of a bloo6less revolution.
Events there moved rapidly, aud a CON-
plete overthrow of the Hawaiian mon
archy was accomplished, followed by the
establishing of provisional government
in the interest Of The whole people of the
islands without the loss of \ single life.
The new government is in full possession
of the islands and is recognized by all the
diplomatic representatives there. Acorn
mission was dispatched to this country
urging that the country be annexed to the
United States. The commission is now
in Washington awaiting further cores
pondence from Honolulu, aud prepar-
ing their arguments 10 favor of annexa-
ton. As this subject promises to be chief
of those agit,ted for some time, or until it
is decided pro or cou, it may be well to
speak of the aud situation of
Hawaii. The entire area of the islands
is about 5000 square miles capable Of
maintaining a population of about $780,
600; the chief product is sugar, but the
soil and climate Is admirably adapted to
the raising of rice, coffee, grapes, oranges,
and tropical fruits. There are extensive
sheep and cattle ranches, her harbors are
well located and by nature almost i'm
pregaabiy dvfrusiblc in case of war. Tie
distance from San Francisco is about z, 100
miles. Eight of these islands inhabited
and four uuinhabited. Honolulu is the
capital with a population of twenty
Thousand. In 1884 there was IL popnla-
ton cf about forty Thousand natives and
about thirty thousand whites. The eli
mate is said to he magnificent. The
Americans oven there are the developers
of the country and the interests of those
islands and those of the United States are
closely allied. Their possession by this
country is of great importance to our
commerce. The sentiment OIL the Pacific
Coast is enthusiastically in favor OF en-
%nexation, and throughout the country,
and especially among the representative
men at Washington, the prayer of the
Hawaiian commission seems to be viewed
with favor. The British government has
announced its intention of taking no
concern in the present administration of
the islands, but 1t is safe to assume that
either she will change her mind or some
other power will step in between the is
lands and the United States, unless we
grant soou the petition urged so earnest
ly by the commission now in Washing
ton.
The Times Democrat, in an editorial
anent the Hawaiian problem, favors, also,
the annexation of Canada and Cuba, be-
cause these countries are ours by natur-
al fate and by unmislakable destiny.
With these possessions the United States
would have territory uneqnaled in point
Of compactness and impresuability on
the planet.

PRESIDENT HAREIsoN's appointment of

PRESIDENT HAREIsoN's appointment Of
Judge Howell Z. Jackson to succeed the
late Justice Lamar, came in the nature of
q surprise to the country. Mr.. Jackson is
Democrat whose convictions have never
been questioned. He is from Tennessee
and possesses the high qualifications re-
quisite to the official position for which
he has been nominated. l. will be re-
garded as a graceful act on the part OF
the President, exhibiting an exalted
craftsmanship which makes him almost
unique among our public men aud will 80
far in ex%tenuating his record which his
tory was about to place alongside the un-
evertiul and commonplace. Some Of
the Republican Senators have expressed
a determination to fight the confirmation,
but it is not probable that they will be
successful.

1t is quite common thing to read about
women acting as models for sculptors and

idea and invariably make the heroine the

ninglike rapidity. But who ever heard Of
man posing for such purpose' There In
