JUDGE GRESHAM.

If it be true that Mr.. Cleveland has
selected Judge Gresham as his
secretary of state it will set the kick
ers a kicking in genuine style, but
what would become of the country if
we had no kickers? Recently another
branch of the family of kickers went
off into bad fit, because President
Harrison appointed a democrat to the
supreme branch.
The recent campaign was noted for
the lack of excitment in its manag-
ment, and the reason given by solid
men was, that the people had the
utmost confidence in both candidates;
believing the country to be safe under
either. The recent actions of both
men shows that the best interests of
the country aro with them paramount
to the wiles of politicians.
In council aad On bench, Judge
Gresham has always shown himself
to be man of superior wisdom, and
broad patriotic views. This indepen-
dence of our presidents in going out
side of party for the country's good,
gives people brighter hopes for the
country's future prosperity. We could
have rejoiced at seeing Mr.. Bayard
again in that position, but we have
the utmost confidence in Mr.. Cleve-
lands Judgment for what is best.

,HANWAIls

Hawaii, or the Sandwich Islands
commands now the thought of every
body in this country, some may not
know as much about that country as
they would like to know. The islands
are located 2,100 miles southwest of
San Francisco on the route to China
and Japan; they are also On the high
road between British Columbia and
Australasia. Queen Liliuokalane,
pronounced Ll-lee-woke fanny or
Lily of the sky, has been deposed for
her attempt to work reforms back
wards. She-is Of the original race of
savages found on these islands by
Capt. Cook more than a century ago,
and who made a feast of him on a
second visit; setting up his bones for
worship. American and English
missionaries have civilized the race,
and the American public school
system is established there. The
population of the islands is about
10000 though they had about 100000
when discovered by Cook. Of the
$4,000 there are 1870 Americans, l $40
English, 700 Germans, 5000 Portu-
guese, Il, $50 Chimes, II ,78O Japanese,
$4,000 pure Hawaiians, $40 mixed
7,410 foreigners born in Hawaii. An
educational qualification for voting
gives the few English and Americans
a great influence. There are eight
inhabitable islands, their products
are sugar, rice, bananas, sweet potatoes,
&c. The trade of the islands Is
principally with the United States.
The islands are perhaps more
necessary to the United States than to
any other country, and we could not
afford toilet any country possess the
territory.
To annex the island as a territory
would be in violation Of the Monroe
doctrine; and it is doubtful if it is
wisdom to own a country so far from
home. We think the better plan
would be to have a protectorate of
of the powers over the islands and let
tnem have a government of their own.
Or let the United States alone exer-
else a protectorate. During Mr..
.Clevelands administration Mr.. Bayard
secured treaty ceding to the United
States Pearl Harbor, to be fortified
for the use of the United States. This
;harbor could be made one of the best
IN the world,
