THE MONEY MOTIVE.

Some Republican papers affect to
pooh-pooh the charge, which is assum-
ing grave proportions, that financial
scheme is at the back of the jingo
movement in reference to Hawaii. The
great American politicians and finan-
ciers seldom engage in any project
which has not for its object the ac-
cumulation Of the almighty dollar.
Sentiment in regard to American
citizens in Honolulu, and the establish
ment of republican principles on the
Sandwich Islands, is all very we'll as
far as it goes, but it does not ego
like the dollar motive. The great secret
spring behind the whole annexation
scheme is said to be in the shape OF
bonds. Bonds of the Hawaiian gov
eminent, past or present, ara not very
valuable in the market If Hawaii
were annexed to the United States this
government would assume the public
debt of the Islands and that would
make the bonds as good as gold. It is
| reported that they are now worth
about two-bits on the dollar.
OF course we would not insinuate
that the lingo advocates in Congress
are inspired by any such influences as
were said to have been brought to bear
in reference to the sugar interest. II
would be cruel to intimate that any
member Of either House was the
actual or prospective possessor OF
Hawaiian bonds. That would not be
fair without good evidence to estab-
lish the fact. But it is very easy tic
I see how spectators in Hawaiian bonds
would profit by annexation and what
an incentive they have to push the
annexation project.
A story comes from the Islands tc
the effect that the government finds il
very hard to collect taxes from the
great masses of the natives and there,
fore a great effort is being made tc
sell bonds in Europe That is not sur.
prising when the manner in which the
present government was set up is con.
sidered. The miserable, measly vote
in favor Of the republic tells the tale
of its unpopularity with the Kanakas
and strengthening must be an un.
pleasant and difficult task. Annexa.
| ton, with the United States treasury
to back the Hawaiian bonds, would
mean fortunes to the bond-holders anG
redemption for the Hawaiian govern
ment
| The statement is made that many
! Hawaiian bonds are held in New Eng
land and that accounts for the strone
attacks from that quarter upon CIeve
lands Hawaiian policy. 1t is no
charged that Frye, Lodge, Hawley
! Boutelle et' al are barking at tht
Presidents heels because they are per
sonally and pecuniarily interested il
annexation, but it does account il
some peoples minds for the New Eng
land sentiment in favor of annexation
which those distinguished gentlemen
represent
1t is regrettable that the almighty
dollar looms I'D so prominently wher
any great public question is agitated
but it must be confessed that this i.
a mercenary age and that this is
money-making country. Annexation
may have its merits, separate an(
apart from any matters of mere specu
lation, but we are inclined to the be
lief that there is more in this bono
| business as related to the project, thar
some of our Republican contempor
aries are willing to admit

WHY THAT FRATERNAL FEELING,

When The Herald received news
from Boise that there was much com
ment on the united vote of the Nor
mon legislators for Sweet as United
States Senator, and that they were
said to be under the lead and dictation
of a notorious Mormon wire-puller and
religio-political schemer, the Deseret
News went into commissions and con-
jured up all the hard names it could
safely use against The Herald, for
what it called this rehash Of stuff, .

The Philadelphia Ledger, discussing

Laws which confine their scope to eff

useful data are commemorative, but at
tempts to compel action as a result of
arbitration must end in the destruc-
ton Of Individual liberty.

The Idaho Statesman hits the nail
squarely on the head, when it says:
There is something out of joint in
Nebraska. The people there insisted
they did not need assistance IN taking

would permit contributions to be sent.
Now they fail to distribute the pro-
visions that have been poured in by a
generous land and, in the drouth-
stricken region, half starved people
are freezing to death in the Arctic
blizzard though hundreds of carloads
of the Aecessaries Of life are waiting
for them on the side-tracks."

gossip and church were travelling the same

numbers of his congregation were steadily
diminishing.
No one knew better than he that some
thing must be done; so he concluded to do
a little house-to-house missionary work,
and thus arouse more interest in church af-
fairs
But his enthusiasm was short lived. The
first man he accosted was Tonald Camp

thinking tendencies.
"Tonald," began the minister. 'for why
were We no at the kirk last Sawbath?"

The Indian wars under the government
Of the United States are stated to have
numbered more than forty and to have
cost the lives of about 1900 white men.
women and children. including about 5000
killed in individual encounters, of which
history takes no note, and of 81, 600 Indians
including $500 killed in personal cncoun-
tiers.
1t has been the policy of the national
government since the year 1873 TO refund
to the states and territories the moneys
paid out by them in supprcssing Indian
hostilities. This liability is based or the
fat that the federal government has
treated the Indians either as nations as
wards of the nation. thus keeping them
from control by the several states.
Speaking of the number of Indians now
in the United States. as shown by the re-
supposed to have lived in the past, the
census editor says: TT is not probable that
the present area of the United States since
the white man came has contained at one
time more than 100000 Indians. High esti-
mates were made in the early days but
the average even then was about 1,oO0,0V0.
In 1890 we have 2iS.253 civilized and I'M
civilized Indians. Through almost four
centuries warlike bands have resisted. and
many of these Indians are still resisting
progress. There are not ten tribes out OF
any of the 200 or more now in the United
States but that have been in revolt, and
those existing as tribes are now remnants.
