THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

Those persons who may still De
skeptical as to the extension OF the
Monroe doctrine to Hawaii, Will
find their doubts resolved If they
will take the trouble to consult
'sWharton's Digest of International
Law" Under the general head of
| the Monroe doctrine the case of
Hawaii is especially treated, and a
| complete resume given of the policy
of the State Department az out
lined by the Secretaries from the
days of Webster to those of Bay
ard. These citations, which have
frequently been referred to by the
ADVERTISER, show conclusively
that Hawaii is regarded as coming
within the scope Of the Monroe
doctrine, as much as if it were an
integral part of the North American
Continent itself.
The same citations can be found,
more at length, in the miscella-
neous papers sent by President
Cleveland to Congress. What
makes their use in Wharton of
particular Importance is the fact
that this work has been adopted by
Congress as an authoritative state
ment of international law, as it is
affirmed and practiced by the ex-
ecutive branch of the United States
Government.
These is no room for doubt that
the settled policy of the American
Government will exclude any
attempt at interference by any
foreign government in the domestic
affairs of Hawaii. We are secure
from such interference, and unless
the United States arrogates to
itself right which it denies to
others, the freedom and autonomy
of the country will not be inter
fered with.

THE fight between the Governor
of South Carolina and the courts
regarding the dispensary law,
which gave the State monopoly
of the liquor business, has ended,
for the time being at least, in the
defeat of the Governor, and the
dispensaries have been closed.
This ends an episode which threat
ened to provoke war.

DINNER AS A PRoPAGANDIsT AGENT.

Regarding the matter of the ex-
penditure of money by our Lega-
ton in Washington, which we COM
mented upon:the other day, we are
in possession of an item of un-
written history, regarding the ex-
penditure of the American Lega-
ton in London, during the great
civil war. AT the critical moment,
when Great Britain seemed to be
on the point of recognizing the
Southern Confederacy, Thurlow
Weed, a distinguished political
leader in the State of New York,
was sent by Mr.. Lincoln to London,
in order to enlighten the English
people on. the true character of the
war. ( On arriving there he was in
formed by Charles Francis Adams,
the American Minister, that it
seemed to be impossible to "get at"
or inform, prominent men of the
case presented by the Federals.
Mr.. Weed suggested that this in
formation might be conveyed in a
social way, and urged him, with
the aid of Mrs. Adams, to give en-
tertainments. Mr.. Lincoln and
Mr.. Seward, being informed of the
value of this means of strengthen
ing the cause, at once directed Mr..
and Mrs. Adams to spare no ex-
pense in the matter, and then fol-
lowed many and large entertain
ments, to which men of prominence
of both political parties were in
vited, and which they attended.
On these occasions Mr.. Adams and
his friends were able to "get the
ears" of these people, and before
many weeks passed there was a
marked change in the sentiment of
many Oh IneIu.
It is unwritten history that more
political business is done at dinner
tables than in any other place, be-
cause it is there that men treat
each other with more consideration
and are in mood to act generously
towards each other.
One of the largest, most far
reaching pieces of modern philan-
throphic work originated and took
definite shape at a dinner table,
where the divergent views ofpositive
men were brought into accord, and,
under the genial warmth of hospi-
atty, a splendid work of charity
RECONSTRUCTED.

THE price Of sugar is very low.
The latest quotation was 1910
cents for Cuba centrifugals.

NOTHING further has been done
by Congress in the matter of tariff
legislation. Debate on the Wilson
bill was to begin however on the
28th of April, the date of our latest
advfces, and the Democrats were
intending to make a. determined
effort to push the bill through.

pRrs1pENT cLEvELAND's POSITION.

President Cleveland's reply to the dele
gates of the leaders of the working
mems organizations who visited him at
the White House yesterday to ask him
to appoint a Commission to investigate
the railroad strike. under authority Of
the act of 1883. clearly defines the posi-
ton Of the Administration in the pres
ent troubles.
The President will appoint such q
Commission and will name the arbitra-
tors forthwith. But a condition prece-
dent to their action Is the restoration
Of peace and order, so as to render a
careful. thoughtful investigation posi-
bic.
There is no weakening in the position
the Administration has taken. The laws
must be upheld and the authority of the
courts must be enforced at any cost
and at all hazards. The duty OF the
Federal Government must and will be
performed whatever force may be re.
CURED to back It. But law and order
being fully restored, and the authority
of the Government essential to its ex'
istence being firmly established. tbs
President Is willing to use all the pNwel
he possesses to reach a permanent solu
ton Of labor questions.
The most enthusiastic labor advocate
can ask for no more than this. Justice
TO labor demands no less.

WELCOME, UTAH.

The political astronomers at the Con-
Eressional observatory have added an
ether star to Old Glory's galaxy. The
House yesterday concurred In the Senate
amendments to the bill for the admission
OF Titan. and this passes the bill 1t now
only needs the Presidents signature,
which will of course be given, to array
Utah in the glory of Statehood.
Well, the Deseret Of the Normons has
had a lively experience since the Saints
were driven from Illinois and settled
down in the beautiful region on the bOr-
ders Of Sail Lake. The Territory has
Witnessed some exciting scenes and has
supplied the politicians with some capital
as well al causing them some trouble.
At one time the Republican leaders
hoped 10 make as much out OF the twin
relic" as out of slavery Itself, but Tor
many years the legislation against the
evils ana usurpstions Of Mormonism was
uncertain aud marked by rowardice in
both parties.
Utah now comes as one OF our sisters.
and will be welcome as the forty-flfth
member of the family.

that a round thousand sore-eyed babies

buy baby caps. and every time the child
faces the strong daylight 1t is exposed
