Hawaiian. BRITISH, OF Ameriean 2

Hawaiian bTlC1Sns OF Americana
On May 25, last, the Hawaiian govern
ment dispatched steamer at forced
speed to hoist the Hawaiian flag upon
Neckar. or johnson island, 400 miles to
the northwest of Honolulu. The action
was to forestau and prevent the seizure
of the island by the British government.
President Dole got information of the
contemplated seizure, and took steps to
retain to Hawaii the territory that had
been heretofore claimed as Hawaiian.
But it is a question whether Doles
steamer succeeded in planting his govern
ment's flag on the island before the
British reached it, for within two hours
after the departure OF the Hawaiin vessel
a British naval vessel was steaming at
full speed with the intent of beating the
race, reaching the island first and taking
possession of it in the name of the queen.
Geographically considered, the island
belongs to the Hawaiian group, and &C
cording TO the principle of proximity
which Great Britain has proclaimed in
other cases, it should be a Hawaiian
island. But Great Britain wants 1t for
cable station, and when Great Britain
wants anything to which a weaker power
lays claim, the principle that might
makes right usually prevails.
A third claimant for the island, in the
person of our respected Uncle Sam, may
put in an appearance. 1t seems, from the
researches of a Baltimore lawyer, that
the island was discovered in 1920 by the
pY1ffcI oh oil ie "A -,
first person to land on the island and
claim ownership was an American named
Parker, who touched there in 1851 and
discovered a guano deposit. He sold his
claim to the United States Phosphate
Company, which Immediately filed its
claim with the state department at Wash
ington. Subsequently the Hawaiian
government claimed the island but
after investigation this govern
ment notified the Hawaiian authorities
that their claim was not recognized, and
the President issued a proclamation de-
claring the island to be a part of the terri
tory of the United States. This was done
by virtue of an act Of congress passed in
1856, which, under decision of the su-
preme court, makes the island a part of
the public domain.
If this lawyers information is correct,
it is a little strange that the Hawaiian
annexationists have not brought the facts
prominently to the front in support of
their policy of making American terri
tory of the whole of Hawaii And again.
if he is correct, it will be interesting to
see either Hawaii or Great Britain hold
the little lump of earth, insignificant
though it may be, if this government has
already declared it to be American terri
tory.

Tn, Rlaok-Watson Contest.

The unanimous report of the committee
on elections in favor of Representative
Black shows that Mr.. Watson did not
make a very good showing in his own be-
half in his contest for the seat
in the House. II is pretty GER
tain the republican members Of
the committe would have supported Mr.
Watson if they could have found an OK
cuse for doing so. 1t would have been a
source Of satisfaction TO them to have
been able to say that Mai Black was
elected by fraud.
Immediately after the election the pop
ulists declared that Mr.. Watson had
been defeated by fraudulent voting in
Richmond county. So emphatic we're
they in their declarations that Mr.. Wat
son gave Mai. Black notice of his purpose
to contest his right to the seat Well, he
has made the contest. The result is
that he failed To get even a republican
member Of the committee on elections to
agree with him.
This action of the elections committee
ought to put an end to all the talk that
Mr.. Watson was defeated by fraudulent
means. # he had been defeated by such
means he ought to have been able to show
il TO the satisfaction'of the political enc
mics of the Democratic party.
1t is the understanding that Mr.. Wat
son intends to be candidate for congress
again this fall in the Tenth district, and
it is quite certain that Maj. Black will be
his opponent. There is not much doubt
as to what the result of the contest will
be Maj. Black who mas made a very
acceptable representative, will be re-
elected Mr.. Watson cannot poll as large
a vote as he did at the last congressional
election, The populists of the district
are not as well organized nor so numerous
as they We're then. Only another and a
still more crushing defeat, however, will
convince Mr.. Watson that the people of
the Tenth prefer Maj. Black to him.

President Dole, of Hawaii, suggest
that Hawaiian annexation should not be
made party question in American poll
tics, and says he prefers to appeal to 1.-The
whole American people, This decision
on the part of President Dole is a sort of
Hobson's choice. There is no political
party in the United States that would
care to tack Hawaii to its platform
That was pretty clearly shown when a
vote was taken in the Senate the other
day on the resolution defining the govern
ment's policy with regard to Hawaii
The question was put to the House and
voted upon without debate or a dissent
ing voice. Had the annexation boom not
been in a sad state of collapse a spirited
debate would have been precipitated by
the resolution. From the standpoint Of
practical politics, " it would be the best
thing President Dole could do to have
the matter made a party question if he
possibly could, otherwise it will drop en-
tirely out of sight. The craze is disap-
pearing.

1t begins to appear that the recent ex-
tradition treaty with Russia will be abro-
gated by congress if a stout fight by in
fuential men can bring it about Repre-
sentatives Straus and Ragner have
already made movements in the House
toward its abrogation, and on the out
side such men as w. d. Howells, Carl
Schurz, Charles Scribner, Edward At
kinson, Thomas Wentworth Higginson
and n. s. Shaler are working for the
same end. 1t is understood there is a CON
certed movement on the part of the
Hebrews of the United States to over
throw the treaty. The great differences
between the politics and inrisprudences
af the two countries are the basis for a
formidable attack. In Russia most of
the criminal charges are not tried by
judges, but by courtsmartial in secret.
1t is declared that no political case has
had public trial since 1878, and that
many provinces have been under martial
law since 1881. Under the treaty, for.
gerry and the utterance of forged papers
are among the extraditable offences. No
one can leave Russia without passports,
which it is sometimes necessary to forge
The treaty, therefore, puts the political
fugitive entirely in the government S

Tariff Bill Prosneots.

/ The defeat of the amendment to con
tinue the bounty on sugar and also the
/ amendment to put sugar on the free list
/ greatly improves the prospects for the
/ early passage of the tariff bin. With
/ the sugar schedule out of the way the
other schedules viii be quickly disposed
Of, and the bill be brought to vote.
/ The republicans thought if they could de-
feat the sugar schedule there would De
an excellent chance for defeating the bill
That scheme having failed they will be
less inclined to continue their policy of
obstruction.
Senator Hills vote was a surprise. II
was not known that he intended to vote
for putting sugar on the free list He is
against the income tax. and it was sup
posed that he was directing his efforts
mainly against that feature of the bill.
How does Senator Hill propose raising
sufficient revenue for the needs of the
government With sugar on the free list
and the income stricken out, the bill
would not produce anywhere near enough
revenue to meet the governments eX-
penses.
No doubt all the democrats would like
to see sugar on the free list, but revenue
must be provided in some way, and sugar
is a revenue article. Senator Mills said
the other day that he would favor free
sugar if the revenue from it were not alb
solutely necessary.
Senator Hills course is pulling.
He seems to be out of har-
mony with his democratic associates
in the Senate Is he playing
a game Of selfish politics. It is not often
that public man wins permanent sue
cess in game of that sort.
If he was sincere in the vote he cast for
free sugar yesterday, the question arises.
will he vote for the billl IL is probable
the bill can be passed without his vote.
If it should he would not have a record
that would help him in getting the presi-

The world is in June and it ripples in
rhyme
June! Sweetheart Of Life and own darling of
Time
The Year, with glad laughter, plays truant to
Death.
Goes back so near Eden she catches its
breath,
And follows that airy old fashion of Ewes.
And rustles abroad in an apron of leaves!
She holds her cheek long to the kiss OF the
sun.
Days widen and warm like some volume be-
gun,
Marrow night like a ribbon just marking the
page
Where some eloquent thought shall last out
the age
Every bush has blossom bee or bird.
A beauty to blow or hum to be heard
Battallons of legs--all eyes or all stings-
And billions of monsters mosquitoes and
things"
