The policy of this administration toward
Hawaii has been one colossal and unpardon-
able blunder. We do not deny that the
President and Secretary Gresham have
really believed what they declared-that the
. queen was removed from her throne by
the act of United States ofticials-but It
was culpable ignorance and jealousy which
allowed them 10 believe So They ought TO
have known more OF the condition and his
tory of the islands. They ought TO have
had quick sympathy. not for monarchs,
but for republics. A people seeking a re-
publican form OF government, under our
own national flag, ought TO have had their
sympathy, not their contempt and scorn.
The United States should never discourage
any attempt that is made TO establish d
republican form of government IN any coun-
try. small or great. weak or strong, civil
lied or unciViliZed; and any officer OF the

DENVER, Col, jan 1.-THE State Senate
was in session but a short time to-day, and
only to receive the majority report of the
special committee appointed to consider the
Governors message. The report declared
there was no occasion for an extraordinary
session and recommended an adjournment
at some hour tomorrow. In regard to the
proposition to have Colorado silver bullion
coined into Mexican dollars, which should
circulate within the State as a legal tender,
the committee stated that it was compelled
to recognize the sovereign authority of the
United States in the issuance OF all coin.
and that the Governors suggestion was alb
solutely impracticable.
The House. from present indications, will
not agree to an immediate adjournment. and
as the Senate will refuse TO transact any
business there will be deadlock until one
gives up the night. In the House member

DEAR BEACON: Il am reminded that |
promised in my last to tell YOUR readers
something Of Bonneville. II is u pretty
town of 500 10 1900 population situated on
the highest point on the NJ. II .. Il Il.
Here the waters divide. on one side How
ing north to the Tenn. river, and south to
the IIigbcc.
Tie people are refined, educated and
hospitable. They put on no "city airs
but are live, energetic and progressive.
About eight years ago they embarked in
the cultivation of fruits. vegetables and
flowers. When they took their new de-
parturc, the people were heavily in dcbt,
tn property here being mortyaged for
more than sl00, 900. This has about all
been paid of, and prosperity and content.
me mt bless the town Lands have doubled
in value and there is constant growth and
improvement. A gentlr man remarked to-
day that he had already shipped fifty BUSH
els of tomatoes from two and u half ..acre
lot and that they had netted him 10 cts. per
Vusici' I'ast t'al OH tut tauc iahu 'Ht
yield was 100 busleI. Beans are being ship
ped to the northern cities in large qnarti-
ties. Mr.. j. X. Cavctt is moving in the
right direction and it is hoped that he may
meet with success. If he does he viii
prove Il benefactor to his section. Around
Macon 1000 acres should be devoted to such
crops.
The canning factory here is only ru,f
when the price IN the cities becomes too
low to induce shipments. 1t works up the
surplus which would otherwise he wasted.
The Peabody Normal was located here
because these people bid .more than my
other town on the NJ, 1t o. r.. Il. The
more than 260 teachers here will leave not
less than $1,000 or $4,000 SO you can see
they made no bad Investment.
Another thing showing the enterprise of
these people Is the artificial lake, boats,
lighthouses etc. recently constructed ut a
cost of more than $1,000.
As your readers know the negro popula-
ton in this section is very small, and my
observation confirms my theory that no
country with a large negro population will
ever become very prosperous. The great
mass of them are too thriitlcss to ever
5uild up a country nor.will the whites ever
exert their fullest energies while we have
them, TEACHER.
