THE United States throuoh Mir

THE United States, through Min
lister Willis, has demanded the alb
dication of the Provisional govern
ment of Hawaii. President Dole
has declined TO comply and init,
mated that the American govern.
ment was doing some unwarranted
meddling in the affairs of the is
lands. The question now, SO far
as this country is concerned, seems
to have simmered down to the SIM
pie proposition, "What are you
going to do about it?"

The address Of ex-Gov. Ross,
delivered before the Irrigation
convention at Deming last No
vember, has been printed in pam
phlet form and is attracting much
favorable attention. He is said to
have had many letters from Con-
gressmen in regard to his PROPOSE
ton that the General Government
cede all the arid lands in the terri
tory to the new state on it's adj
mission with the condition that
the state reclaim them through ir-
igation and sell them to actual
settlers, with their water right, at
a price sufficient only reimburse
thestate for the cost of proclamation.
He proposes that that cession be
made in lieu of the usual grants
for state institutions. The plan is
feasible and sensible one and its
adoption would be Of great advan-
to the state, and in general way to
the Nation; for these lands will
not be available for homes until
reclaimed through irrigation pro-
noted by either state or Nation.

THEY SAT UPON 1T.

Governor Waite's imported cheap dol
lar scheme went glimmering when the
legislature which he had convened in
special session to adopt it got round to
it. The following resolution passed both
houses Friday, the House by A to IS,
and the Senate by 20 to II. 1t reads:
Resolved By the House of Represent
atives OF the Ninth General Assembly
Of the state of Colorado, the Senate con-
curing, that we hereby unequivocally
condemn any attempt at legislation as
dent, and of doubtful constitutionality,
and tending to bring into disrepute
the great state Of Colorado and her peo-
pie, and we hereby denounce any attempt
to accomplish the same as in opposition
to the wishes and in defiance of the re-
peated, earnest and emphatic protests Of
the people of the state; and be itfurther
Resolved, By the General Assembly
of the state of Colorado, that we do
hereby demand of the congress to whom
the states have delegated the power of
providing circulating medium for the
necessities of the people, that they carry
out the great trust confded to them by
the people and restore to silver, equally
with gold, as the money Of the constitu-
ton. the right of free coinage at the
mnts OF the United States"
The Senate expressed its judgment in
these words: while we deplore the ad
verse legislation of Congress in refusing
to coin silver equally with gold at the
present ratio, we are compelled to recog
nize the sovereign authority of the Fed
efal Government III respect to coinage
and legal tender. To compel the &C
ceptance of domestic or foreign silvel
dollars in payment of debts when not re
quired by the Federal statutes would be
a violation of contracts, revolutionary in
character, and in practice destructive o
the interests sought to be conserved.
This expression of the Senate's posi-
ton is clear, correct and dignifed; ant
therefore contrasts sharply with th
usual utterances of the Governor.

DAWN.
In the calm, silent night,


In the calm, silent night,
By fair Luna's pale light,
The dews deck with jewels the red roses spray,
And they shine there at morn
When the day-god's first-born,
Aurora the Beautiful comes forth to play.
The roses cheek burns
Deeper yet she turns
To the love-aden kiss of the maiden who opes
The Orient's gates
Where Phobus awaits
Till she wakens the world to new labors and
thopes
How balm fills the air,
And its perfume how rare!
How sing the glad chorists deep hid in the grove
Oh then it is sweet
To sit down at the feet
OF Nature and learn from her lessons of love

THE DEMAND or THE PEOPLE.


Daily States.
Next Saturday night the Ballot Reform
League will hold a mass meeting for the
passage Of the Australian ballot bill,
which will insure honest elections in this
city and state. False registration, ballot
box stutiing and the general dishonesty
of our elections, both state and munich
pal, have caused much OdiHm to attach
to the name of Louisiana, and the people
are emplIatieally demanding that there
shall be a change and Law passed which
will prevent fraud and compel the men
in charge of the polling places 10 count
the votes as they are cast. From all pOr-
ti0ns of the state the press and people
are urging the Legislature to pass the
Australian ballot reform bill, aud not an
emaseulated measure under the 0peratlon
Of which our elections will be as great q
farce in the fntHre as they have been in
the past. In spite of the popular appeal,
however, ugly rnn0rs come from Baton

high in authority, as well as members of
the legislature, are seeking BY secret
means to defeat ballot reform. II \
