What the Brotherhood is Doing and Say.
ing All Around.
The Alliance is taking on new life in
Kentucky and new Sub Alliances are
being organized all over the State.
In California the brethren are hav,
ing Alliance speakings, icecream soci
ables, and a good time generally.
The Order is on a boom in Texas.
Ben. Terrell has been speaking over the
State and the people are doing the
rest.
The State organizer for Washington
has organized five new Sub-Alliance8
and County Alliance in the past
month. Z
Our California exchanges are very
cheerful over the outlook for the Ali
ance in that State. The Order is very
active there.
And now the papers say the Alliance
is humping herself in Ohio. That is
good news indeed. The country will
be saved yet.
A grand Alliance rally was held at
Kings Mountain recently. The meet.
ing did not look like there was any.
thing dead" in that section.
There seems to be a general disposi
ton on the part of AlIiancemen every.
where to pass fewer resolutions and
carry out some OF those already passed.
That is right.
National Lecturer Ben. Terrell has
been hard at work in Tennessee for
some time. Much work is needed
there and Bro. Terrell can do it. We
hope u neighbor will give a good
report pretty soon.
We are glad to note the good feeling
that prevails among the brethren in
South Carolina. The people of that
State r frey, but they are true. They
seem to be entirely cool and deliberate
in Alliance work and ahead of some
other States that are making moreno
than they are there.
The farmers Of Louisiana have formed
a business agency or union something
after the plan of our State Alliance
business agency, Why don't all the
States stop experimenting and copy
after North Carolina. OurState Agency
Is run on business principles, is safe
and satisfactory.
Still more good news. The Alliance
men in Kansas have realized that the
campaign was over several months ago
and that the Legislature has adjourned,
and now they are working in Alliance
harness the same as if they had not
been divided. Warm weather does q
good deal. We are eating new vega
tables and fruits down here and work,
ing right along. Kansas must get all
right as the birds begin to sing.
The Alliance in Texas is again on
boom. Political differences have al
most wrecked the Order there two OF
three times, but it recuperates lust IS
rapidly. We have direct news from
there to the effect that the State organ
lzer has organized IS new Alliance
since the 18th of February, and that
new interest is being aroused all over
the State Judging from the numba
OF good Alliance papers and leaders
that State the organization is bound
be strong.

The Hawaiian Matter.

Il is hardly necessary for me to state that
the questions arising from our relations with
Hawaii have caused serious embarrassment
Just prior 10 the installation Of the present ad-
minlstration the existing government
of Hawaii had been suddenly overthrow
and treaty Of annexation had been negotiated
between the provisional government Of the lslauds
and the United StsteE and submitted to the senate
for ratification This treaty withdrew for exam
ination and dispatched Hon. John A Bl0unt OF
Georgia TO Honolulu a Special Commissioner

stances attending tho change Of government and
of all the conditions bearing upon the subject Of
the treaty and after thorough and exhaustive cL-
animation Mr.. Blount submitted 10 me his report,
showing beyond all question that tho con-
sttutlonal government OF Hawaii had
been subverted with the active aid OF
our representative TO that government and
through the intimidation caused bv the pres
ence of an armed naval force Of the United
States which was landed for that purpose at
the instance OF our minister. Upon the facts
developed II seemed 10 me the only honorable
course for our government to pursue WAS to
undo the wrong that had been done by those
representing Us and 10 restore, al far as practi-
cable, the status existing At the time OF our
forcible Intervention With view of accom-
limits Of executive power and recognizing all
our obligations and responsibilities grow
