POINTS ON HAWAII.

Bourke Cochran, of New York, set
the Republicans of the House wild yes.
terday, with resolution to appoint a
special committee of seven to investi-
gate the alleged attempt of the last ad-
ministratiOn to annex territory to the
United States without consulting the
House, and to enquire into the rights
Of the House in the premises.
This was aimed at the armed con-
spiracy in Honolulu, by which the gov
ernment of Hawaii was overthrown by
force, and that force an unauthorized
armed force of the United States, act
ing without any legal authority. A
wild scene ensued in the House, as it
was seen that the,resolution was loaded,
and Boutelle, of Maine, who usually
knows enough to keep his temper, went
into violent conniptions, and used very
unparliamentary language, in which he
referred to President Cleveland as q
usurper.
But the resolutions was referred to
WV n OiNibl Jubb
the same, and we hope to see favora-
bic report.
Even the Republican journals of
character are conceding that the Pres
ident's action on the Hawaiian case
has been courageous, honorable and
thoroughly in accord with the tradi-
tional foreign policy of the govern
ment.
The Pittsburg Dispatch is one Of the
leading Republican organs that con-
cedes the just judgment of the Presi,
dent on this much vexed case. The
Presidents message, together with the
instructions given Minister Willis, con-
clusively prove that there has been no
effort made to use the armed forces of
the United States to restore the Queen,
nor was such a policy ever contem-
plated.
Now, that all the facts are known,
the Republicans can make no party
capital out of the Hawaiian case, and
they know It.

BETTER GET TOGETHER.

The Republican organs should get
together. Here comes an able Repub-
lican journal claiming the Wilson tariff
bill is free trade measure, and aimed
at the destruction of American indus
tries, and fr4ught with disaster and
ruin dire.
Then comes another able Republican
organ and claims it is a Protection
measure, and that the Democratic
party has been compelled to follow Re-
publican precedent and Mckinleyism.
Now what 90 these opposing Rspub-
lican opinions indicate?
They indicate that the Wilson bill is
a conservative measure, as all sensible
tariff bills must be, and that it is built
on business principles, and that it will
promote legitimate business and. ad-
vance all industrial pursuits.
While it will not suit high Protec-
tioniSts. who believe In plutocracy, and
that it is the business of government
to legislate for the rich in order that
the rich may be enabled to take care of
the poor; neither does it suit the radi-
cal free traders, who believe that reve-
nue. and revenue only is the sole ques
tion for the tariff builder to consider
without regard to present industrial
conditions and vested interests.
All tariff and financial legislation
must be conservative.
The fact that certain Republican
journals are denouncing it as free
trade measuee, while others equally il.
fuential are claiming it as Protection
measure, is a certain indication of it's
conservative character.

We get reliable information that the
West Eud Republicans are very much
opposed to Mr.. Wearstler.for superin-
tendent of the inhrmary. The Massil-.
lon Independent gives the following
'cogent reasons why MIR. Wearstler
should not be appointed As the in
firmary board is Republican, and as q
Republican is sure to be appointed, the
only interest the Democrats have in
the question is to secure the best man (.
Here are the three reasons given in the
Independent, why MIR. Wearstler should
not be appointed
"As for MIR. Wearstler, he Is not a
proper man for the place mentioned for
three specific reasons.
l lie does not possess those pecu-
liar qualities Of temuerameut or train
ing that should be the endowment of
an iUlirmary uperintendent,
H. He has already served the people
for six years, and rs the Office he seeks
is totally different in character, the
public service will not suffer by his re-
tirement, and it is therefore fair to give
another man chance.
Ill. His conduct while in Office has
undermined confidence in his ability to
manage public affairs with Judgment
or economy"
Coming from such high Republican
authority as the Massillon Indepen-
dent, the above is quite surprising; yea,
even startling.
Now, perhaps some friend of Mr..
Wearstler can muster three valid reas-
ons why he should be appointed.

THE DEMOCRATS NOT IN 1T.


The Toledo Commercial, which as
sumes to be an organ of high moral
ideas, perpetrates the following 10 its
dignifei editorial department of think
ing:
Glow are the mighty fallen! Democ-
racy once defied the royal power OF
England. Now it succumbs; to tie
royalty of the harlot ex.Queen OF
Hawaii"
Now what does this venerable, silver
haired expert know of the harlot
Queen, except as connected with a Ger.
tain prominent Republican, of highly
pedigreed American ancestry, who so.
journed in the Queens palace, under
her royal Dib's gentle rule.
And what possible responsibility has
the Democratic party in the affair.
When this all happened, if it ever did
happen, there was not alDemocrat with
a particle of influence or power at Hon.
olulu, or within 1000 miles of Hon.
olulu.
All the Americans in and around the
Queens palace, and cringing the knee
to the dusky Queen, (probably the last
of her tribe) were Republicans, in
league with Minister Stevens, and he
was the accredited agent of that great
man, Benz. Harrison, then sojourning
in Washington.
Certainly, Mr.. Commercial, you will
have to count the Democrats out of
the harlOtery business, That was ex-
clusively Republican affair.

THE Cleveland Plain Dealer iu an
editorial headed independent j ournal-
ism," practically takes itself into the
ranks of independent journals. Here
is an extract:
"The press must be independent; It
cannot be subservant to pa ,ty or prince;
1t must be loyal to the common people
In this country because the press is the
defender of the peoples rights Very
few understand how constantly organ
izations are made and plans are per-
fected for plundering the people. The
press should be the defender of the
people. The people have right to de-
pend on It. Whenever it becomes rec
reant to the truth it has no right to ex-
pect the patronage Of tho people. If the
party goes wrong the press should go
right. II the city or state government
goes wrong the press should criticise 1t.
II the general government Is false to
the rights Of the people, 1t is the duty
Of the press to set the government
right"
