Judge JACKSON ooNEINMED
And His Successor May Not he Nominated
by Harrison.


And His Successor May Not lie Nominated
by Harrison.
WASHINGTON, Feb let is asserted
by number Of persons who ought to
know what they are talking about, that
President Harrison made bargain
with the Democrats that if they would
not further delay the confirmation OF
Judge Jackson as an associate justice OF
the supreme bench, he in turn would
leave to Mr.. Cleveland the appointment
OF circuit Judge to succeed Jackson. Ii
this be true, one part ol the contract
was carried out, as Judge JaCkson's
nomination was confirmed by large
majority, only two or three Republicans
aud as many Democrats voting in the
negative.
It is whispered that Senator Quay
voted no, as his friend GARRISON would
also have voted had he been in the
senate, but Senator Quay does not sub
stantiate the statement. No senator Is
more conscientious than Quay in regard
to divulging tho secrets OF the execu'
tive session, and one might as we'll oher
up petitions to n stone wall as to ask
him to give q tip on the performances
behind the closed doors.
One OF the most intimate official
friends Of President Harrison denied
that the President had made any bar
gain in regard to the appointment OF II
successor to Jackson, and that o success
sor will DO nominated within few days
and that he will DO Republican. II
that be the fact, the unlucky Republic
can successor will not have even as
plain sailing as Judge Jackson, for the
Democrats will fight any such nomina'
ton. tooth and nail,

June 30, 1892, were only 1855 widows
and orphans, with loo. $50 claims OF this
character 10 be passed upon, II the
whole number OF waiting claims are al
lowed it will make a total OF Sl5, ll0,
leaving 700,734 dead soldiers unrepre-
scented on the pension list by widow,
orphan or dependent father or mother,
In view OF these facts the widow and
orphan pension list must be exempted
from the charge OF fraud,
As to deserters, the total number re'
corded throughout the war was ll7,24I
OF these 25.542 subsequently we're freed
from the charge OF desertion and receiv-
ed an honorable discharge. Not more
than IL $50 OF these survive,
The hospital records show that $685.
$50 cases from the ranks OF the army
were treated in the government hos
pitfalls, while lG6,4l7 soldiers were re-
leased from southern prisons, most OF
them in broken health.
These figures furnish strong grounds
for the claim that the pension list is
not near SO long as 1t might be, and will
be ii justice is done, and dispute the
claim OF the soldier haters that the roll
is absurdly large. It was a mighty war
and great army, and the nation is not
yet done paying the debt OF gratitude
it owes the veterans and their widows
and orphans. Aside rom the question
OF sentiment involved, there is BUSH
ness side to the question, The millions
that are distributed among the pen
sioners are not sent out OF the country,
They go into the pockets OF tho people
and are kept in circulation instead OF
being boarded in tho treasury.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch vigorously
opposes Hawaiian annexation, and
among the arguments it makes is the
one that we would annex a country a
large proportion OF whose population
is Objectionable, This argument has
been urged before, but it does not fol-
low that it is a good one, We call tho
Disp1tcHs attention to the very complete
answer to its point which is found in
the following extract from tho Wash
ington Post:
We have already In the United States more
Chinese than there are In Hawaii aud they DO
not cOmpleate the problem Of American citizen
ship. We have. also many thousands oil ab-
original Indians, who were AMERICANS before
Columbus was born, yet they take no part IN tue
management of the country which belonged 10
their ancestors and they trouble us notat all
Then there Is Aiqska, which we acquired some
years agO and along with II population alto
gether more Objectionable than the lowest order
OF coolies. But our civilization nus not Deen
imperled iu consequence. The argument, In
all It's aspects mud applications, Is mere driYel
As to tho Jabancse, however, II should DO said

given 10 emigration. They may!gO ahrOnd to
work on chroinlly stipulated contracts, but they
do so without the smallest Intention or desire OF
relinquishIng their citizenship and always with
the full expectation o! returning. They go, too
under the express protection Of treaty with the
country in which they propose to Sojourn, md
during .ho entire period OF that so1ourn they
maintain definite relations with the mother
country and neither form nor seek to form any

ship should annexation be contaminated.
1t is not necessary to worry about the
clements OF population in Hawaii. The
thing to be considered is, rather what
advantage will the islands be to us in
other respects, as naval station in the
Pacific, for instance, and in all those re-
CARDS which have been 80 we'll taken
into account by the government in maxi
ing the treaty which is now before the

patch is Insignificant compared with
these.

Launch of Clipper sloop-Andrew

has been 5 years in its construction.
1t has been under cover all the time
protected from the weather. There
is no doubt that she is we'll con-
structed in every part. The builder
put his money in her as fast as he
could spare it. Her dimensions and
tonnage are as follows: 35 feet 3
inches length; 10 feet 8 inches beam;
4 feet hold; 30 tons burden. She is
made of native timber, natural crooks,
8 inches between timbers, very light

she will prove a fleet sailor, and a
splendid sea boat. The sum of hel
