THE GIsT of the Hawaiian CORE
spondence sent to Congress to-day is
that the President, actuated by a wise
aud just desire TO undo great wrong
10 q weak country with which his own
was at peace, proposed to the legi'i
mate government thereof, TO effect that
object if it would pardon the perpc-
traitors of the outrage within its jmis-
diction. This, that government has so
far declined to do, for the good reason
that if permitted to live in Hawaii, the
offenders would soon renew their pirat-
ical-not neutrality-suspicious., and
the country be again thrown into dis
order and confusion, with almost neces-
sary sanguinary results. In case the
Queen shall not accept his terms before
Congress can act in the matter, the
President will leave it in the hands of
that body. He should have put the
Queen where his predecessor found her,
and have undone the wrong without
imposing conditions.

THE few disnaturalized citizens of this
country, who, with the assistance of U.
S. forces, seized Hawaii and deposed
the legitimate government thereof,
finding that their piracy is not as much
in accord with a democratic, as it was
with republican administration in the
United States, have abandoned their
scheme of annexing the Sandwit h
Islands to this country, and now assert
their intention of setting up govern
ment of their own, and on their own ac-
count. But, ridiculous as tits, they de-
clare that their proposed government
will be republic, though, in the same
breath, they say that in the establish
meut of that republic, the natives of the
country shall take no part and have no
lot. and that it shall be of, for and by
the few foreigners and adventures who
have wandered there

Mr.. ROOSEVELT, untaught by his HUI
initiating experience in the Baltimore
postoilice case and in that of the govern
ment printing office in Washington, has
essayed another attempt in the same
direction, and has, as stated in Satur
days GAZETTE, recommended the legal
prosecution of parties in Toledo for col
lecting political Assessments. Like
that in the others referred to, this at
tempt will also fail, and must do so from
the very nature Of the case. A mans
money is his own, and no law can pre-
vent him from giving it to his party if
it shall please him to do so. But as the
civil service commission is founded
upon humbug, it and all its proceedings
must necessarily be of the same charac-

The TARIFF BILL.-The democratic
members of the ways and means COM
mittee of the House of Representatives
will meet tonight and determine de-
finitely, it is asserted, in favor of a gen.
eral tax on individual incomes. Rep
resentative Mcmillan believes that the
entire deficiency of over S60,00o,0 900
caused by the reduction of customs du-
ties in the Wilson tariff bill can be made
up by the imposition of tax on In
comes in excess of $4,000. 1t is thought
the committee will not make the tax On
direct inheritances more than l per
cent. probably less, and tax of per
cent. or less on collateral inheritances.
IF the tax on whisky is increased it will
only be-slightly, so that the chances OF
aiding the whisky trust may be as small
rs possible. Representative Sperry, OF
Connecticut, who is one of the leaders
of the opposition to the Wilson tariff
bill, counts upon seven democratic
members of the Senate to aid in the de-
feat of the bill in that body.

LEGISLATIVE.
The Senate was not in session on Saturday

In the House, among the bills introduced
was one to re uate the sale of ardent spirits
by druggists in cities, counties and magiste-
rial districts where local option prevails The
bill provides that druggists shall be allowed
to retail ardent spirits, upon tho prescription
of licensed practicing physicians by paying a
license tax therefor as prescribed by law for
retail liquor dealers the prescription to be
cancelled as soon us filled.
The House bills to amend and re-enact Sec
tions 1, 2 aud s of an act entitled IAN act
to incorporate the Potomac and Great Falls
Railroad Company" approved January Goth,
1892 and to repeal the charter Of the town
of Potomac, in Prince William county, were
passed.
Mr.. Nicol Saturday evening completed his
bill to legalize primary elections and filed it
with the clerk of the House. 1t is modelled
after the Pennsylvania lines. The chief feat
ure is that it makes misdcmcanor of the
giving and receiving of money or other val
liable consideration, including patronage, in
xchange for votes. 1t also provides punish
ment for ballot-box stuffing. If it is passed.
all parties will have to pay, as now, the cx-
pcnses of their primaries or convention. The
measure only seeks to have the nominations
honestly made, and it provides penalty for
fraudulent methods used.

and for the sole purpose of submitting
her case to the enlightened justice of
the United States.
Believing, therefore, that the United
States could not, under the circum-
stances disclosed, annex the islands
without justly mourning the imputation
of acquiring them by unjustifable
methods, l shall not again submit the
treaty of annexation to the Senate for
its consideration, and in the instruc.

him to so inform the provisional gov

But in the present instance our duty
does not. in my opinion, end with re-
fusing to consummate this questiona-
BILE transaction. 1t has been the boast
of our government that it seeks to do
Justice in all things without regard to
the strength or weakness of those with
whom it deals. l mistake the Ameri-
can people if they favor the odious doc
trine that there is no such thing asinter-
national morality, that there is one
law for strong nation and another for
weak one, and that even by indirec-

despoil weak one of its territory.
By an act of war, committed with
the participation of diplomatic repre-
sentative Of the United States and with
out authority of Congress, the govern

substantial wrong has thus been done
which due regard for our national
character as we'll as the rights of the

Thurstou in Washington.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 10
Minister ThurSton, of Hawaii, has
not demanded his passports. The
fact that his relations to this
country are still friendly after the
conference with Secretary Ores
ham yesterday is thought BY
diplomats significant. The rela-
tons between the Hawaiian lega-
ton and the State Department
remain undisturbed. The Hawaii
an Government, however, will
stand on its rights as an indepen-
dent sovereignty, and its policy
would naturally be to regard as an
act of war any movement looking
to the restoration of the Queen.
Under these circumstances Minis
ter Thurston would at once leave
the country.
Minister Thurston, indeed, has
no official information that this
country has declared war on his
Government. Secretary Gresham's
published letter to the President
contains much information, but on
IL furnishes sufficient basis for him
to request information as to the
United States Governments inten-
tons toward his Government.
Mr.. Thurston said he learned
nothing new of interest from Mr..
Gresham, but got the impression
that the United States did not in
tend to use force under any circum-
stances in the restoration of Queen
Liliuokalani.

"Should q conflict take place in

try VIII realize what style of men

erything to fight for and the oppo-
nents Of the Constitution in Homo

lie against them. When the intel
ligence and industry Of q country

THE RED SUNSETS.
Observers Who Attribute Them
Principally to Solar Erup-
tiouS.

A note from DR.. Veeder of Lyons,
states that he has received letter
from DR.. E. Won Ryckevorsel of
Rotterdam, Holland, upon the sup
posed connection between the erup-
tion of Krakatoa, August 20, 1855,
and The red sunsets. The doctor
writes: II saw them (the red sun
sets), and my assistant saw them
in Para, Brazil, just a month be-
fore the eruption. Do you think
this conclusive?
Without any knowledge OF this
observation and another, which
will be referred to, the Democrat
and Chronicle observer reasoned
that the eruptions were not the
principal cause of the red sunsets,
but that the solar activities were
chiefly instrumental IN producing
the observed phenomena
After the essays upcu the red
sunsets had been published by Mr.
Warner and sent abroad by DR.
| Swift, they were reviewed IN the
English Mechanic. The reviewel
then stated that the essay describ
ing the solar sruptions as the prin
cipal cause of the red sunsets, wa
! the most sensible and scientific
of all. He also stated that the As
; tronomer Royal at the Cape of Goo
, Hope had seen the red sunset
|. several months, we believe IN jar
: uary, before the eruption of kraks
: toa, and had made drawings.
The observations of DR.. Z. vo
|, Ryakevorsel and the Astronome
I ROYAL at the Cape of Good HoE
e seem to be conclusive. But 1t WI
be very difficult to get the eoneI'
: sions which were jumped at b

!. the instrumentalitv Of the krak
