Referring to the withdrawal Of the
Hawaiian treaty as "a dlsgraceful act
the New York Press says
No justification whatever exists for
Mr.. Clevelands s action The treaty was
Ia accordance with the wishes Of the
citizens aud taxpayers Of Hawaii lts
raducation was favored by an over
whelming majority Of the American
people.
We are at a loss to understand how the
Press has ascertained the sentiments Of
the people Of this country or Of the citi
zens and taxpayers OF the Sandwich Is
lands. There must be some private
source of information; none has been
made public to that effect And yet we
cannot believe that the Press would
make such bold assertions from pure
mendacity, without haviug any founda-
tion for them except its own wishes or
interests. Il Is true, however, that the
Press has been one of the most un-
reasonable advocates Of the high protec
tive robbery, on the plea that what. was
beneficial to a small minority Of the
people should be forced on the majority
The Press puts forth an argument as
astonishing as the statements quoted
above. This argument is;
It (the treaty. insured 10 the United
States forever the possession OF
the impregnable outpost which in
case of war with European
power would be worth a dozen ilonclads
to the people of tue Pacific coast; IL gave
this nation undisputed control of the
marine fortress that will command for all
time the highway of Pacific commerce; IL
was in fulhllment of the policy which
American statesmen have pursued TO
ward Hawaii for more than fifty years
In the first place we do not intend to
incur a war with any European pow er
That danger, that foolish apprehension
which fills the disordered minds of specu
lators who have the disease Of "intense
Americanism," Is lessening every year
The settlement Of the Alabama Claims
with England proves our ability to settle
any smaller controversy. IfEngland bad
dared she would have refused to settle
that enormous and unjust bill.
In the second place. in case we were
expecting aud preparing for war
which thank Providence we are Motive
have all the rights and privileges now
that possession would give. without any
Of the embarrassments or the expense Of
the government, fertilization and civil
zation Of those islands.
In addition to all Of this 10 has been
the unbroken policy Of this country not
to annex territory on this continent; moi
10 anuex any territory otherwise than
by fair and honorable means.
This desire to annex territory is th,
prompting of the buccaneer spirit and
he suggestion Of selfish greed Neither
the Press nor any other paper knows
what the people Of the Sand wich Islands
desire nor yet what the people Of the
United States desire in this matter
These sent ments have not been ex
pressed We are constrained to belle e
bat this whole agitation is the work o
The Claus Spreckels party for the pur
pose Of grabbing the sugar bounty The

Republican decadence began during

express the wish that there could be some
way provided for securing as adornments
for some Of the spaces of the city statues
of great civil leaders TO round out the his
tory told by the city's memorials" In
furtherance of that wish you can establish
a claim to the prospective gratitude of the
city by urging the passage of bill offered
in Congress several years since providing
for the erection of a statue to that disting-
uished scientist and noble gentleman, Spen-
Ger +. Baird who though he ''labored for
mankind with the world for a workshop"
was yet ever ready to cooperate with our
citizens in every movement for the city 8
beauty and advancement. To him We owe
the first practical experiments and exhi-
bition of the system of electric lighting, to
him the revival of the free scientific lee
lures. to him indeed more than to any other
