from what is testified to in the forego-

logic" by the Salt Lake Tribune.
The queen of Hawaii and her sup
porters have pleaded their cause be-
fore the government of the United
States The annexationists have pre-
sented their views and overtures. An
nexation has failed. The provisional
government was recognized as q. tenn
porary expedient until annexation
should be decided upon. That disposes
of Jeff Chandeliers little point. 1t has
been made to appear that the govern
ment of the Queen was deposed by a
display of force under the flag and
authority of the United States. illegit-
imately exercised What is there 50
dreadful in the investigation of this
matter. in which the honor Of the
United States and the question of
which is the rightful government of a
neighboring friendly state are at
stake? To compare that to an investi-
cation of the Louisiana purchase.
about which there is no dispute and
which has been a settled matter for so
many years. is equal to the attempt
to draw a parallel between the upris
ing in Honolulu and the settlement of
the Salt Lake valley. What could be
more astonishingly ridiculous?
The haters of Grover Cleveland are
in a bad box. They started in to abuse
him for trying to "set up a monarchy,
even at the risk of the lives and prop
erty of American citizens in Honolulu"
And now that only pacific news comes
of the action taken by the American
minister, they are in anger because
the Queen has not been forcibly rein
stated and blood has not been shed. SO
that they might be able to growl some
more
But what business have American
citizens in Honolulu overturning the
legitimate government of the Islands?
And what business had the American
minister joining in the plot, and using
United States ornaments to depose a
friendly power? If the government of
the United States had not inquired
into the charges preferred by the roy
aIists, it would have been shamefully
derelict in its duty and dishonorable
in it's treatment of small but friendly
and peaceful power
We believe now as we have believed
from the beginning of the noise over
the course of the administration, that
President Cleveland had gone to the
bottom of this affair before he deter
mined upon the steps that should be
taken. He is honest in mind and firm
in character. He makes sure he is
right according to the best light he
can obtain and then he goes ahead
and is fearless Of opposition and re-
CARELESS of caIumny. 1t is easy for
the smallest minds to peck at him,
but he will come out of the dust they
have raised on the Hawaiian question
calm and serene and with full vindica-
ton of his policy and purpose.

In attempting to reply to a letter

That is the sort of argument we
might expect from that source. If it
can prove that this same correspon-

opinion it would not be a reply to
his present reaseuings. But it simply
assumes that he took certain posi-
ton then and from that assumption
proceeds to draw its absurd conclu-
sions. There is nothing in it's long
article but lot Of Irrelevant and in

A CLOSE QUESTION.

But If our neighbor insists that the
Probate Judge is d Federal officer
then the registrar is likewise a Fed
eral officer because it comes directly
not through the territorial laws, but
by a special act of Congress.
That is what the Tribune continues
to repeat. thus entirely avoiding tbs
only point that has been in dispute
lit says we are Sin a close place.
We are quite willing to remain there
because the question lies IN a very
narrow compass. while our neighbor
strays off and wanders away into ir-
relevant space. The contest is not as
to whether a Probate Judge or reg
istrar is a Federal officer. That is
language used by the Tribune to avoid
the close place in which the facts ex-
list
The Supreme Court of the United
States has ruled as to the officers ap-
pointed by the President and Senate
for Utah that they are territorial Of
ficers. and the courts presided over
by the Judges so appointed are ter
ritorial courts. Either our neighbor
is unable to perceive the point in
volved in this controversy, or it is in
the condition of those that won't
see"
There is no allegation that either of
the offices mentioned is a Federal Of
fee 1t is claimed and demonstrated
that a Probate Judge holds an APP
pointment under the United States. re-
ceiving it as the Governor, Secretary,
District Attorney and the Judges of
the District courts receive their ap-
pointments. 1t is further claimed that
a registration officer receives his APP
pointment under the Territory of
Utah, as do clerks of courts, notaries
public and other appointees Of officers
who have been appointed under au-
thority of the United States to act as
territorial officers.
The men who appointed them are
territorial officers and so are the
appointees. The difference being that
Probate Judges, like the Utah Com
mission, are appointed under the Uni
ted States and the persons appointed
by that Commission are appointed
under the Territory of Utah The
agency in appointing the Governor
Commission, Judges, etc. is the Pres
ident. acting with the Senate for the
United States. The agency in ap-
pointing the registrars is the Utah
Commission acting for the Territory Of
Utah.
If our neighbor cannot or will not see
this essential difference it is perfectly
useless to continue to hold it up or
out for its inspection. The Tribune
had better get into a close place and
take a good square steady look at it
in the light of common sense

NOTHING BUT JUSTICE.

|
ming on to the extent of nearly a solid
column of rambling, our morning
contemporary drivels away about the
Hawaiian matter in way that shows
it had not yet studied the communi-
cations of Commissioner Blount and
Secretary Gresham, which throw clear
light on the fraud by which the Is
lands Queen was induced to abdicate.
Comparing the connivance of a min
lister of the United States in the over
throw of the government to which he
was accredited, with the landing of
the pioneers in Utah where a few In
dams roamed among the sage and
sand dunes, is a peculiarly Tribunish
style OF illustration and argument. .
Just the same with it's good law and
good logic" in claiming that the same
authority by which the administra-
ton inquired into the Hawaiian in
surrection, would justify it in an in
quiry into the purchase of louisiana!
The pioneers. in coming to this land,
found it as Mexican territory. It was
at a time when the United States were
at war with Mexico and battalion of
the people of whom they were an adj
vance guard was enlisted for United
States service in that war. They ran
up the United States flag and honor
ed it as American citizens Not long
after, this region was coded to the
United States by the treaty of Guada-
jlupe Hidalgo. and subsequently the
Territory of Utah was organized.
Now what parallel is there between
that transaction and the instruction
in Hawaii? Minister Stevens was at
Honolulu representing the United
States in the court of Liliuokalani-
a friendly ruler at peace with all the
world Some of the white people de-
sired to overturn her government and
had no chance to succeed without the
aid of the United States minister and
forces. They gained his support to
their plot. The evidence is conclusive
that they had planned this for months
and Stevens was in it. To overawe
the Queen and her cabinet, the naval
forces of ne United States were taken
ashore and placed where they would
be seen by the royalists, while the de-
mand was made upon her to abdi-
cate. She did so in fear of the United
States, under protest and until her
case could be heard at Washington.
The provisional government was set
up as a temporary concern to take
charge of affairs pending action of
the United States as to annexation.
To call it a republic, when it is adj
mitted that the people to be governed
had no voice in its establishment, is a
travesty upon words and upon repub-
lican institutions. 1t was few white
men, ambitions and grasping, who
took advantage of the Discrimination
of the native population to resist a
great power. and forced upon them the
temporary government set up by the
few, and drove out by force and fraud
the government upheld by the many.
To lfken the inhabitants of the
Sandwich Islands. with their recog-
nized monarchial form Of government,
nation holding friendly and civilized
relations with the great nations of
the world, to the wild, wandering
tribes of the west in their savagery
and scattered homelessness. is the
very acme Of extreme absurdity. And
Iyet that is called good law and good
