race was won by the British yacht
valkyrie III, but was given to De-

have been run over, as the American
public would have rather lost the cup
honorably than retain it by taking
races they did not win. The interest
of the people in the lace ended with
that decision.

Of century she has Dsen our steadfast

The Japs in Hawaii.

The new government Of Hawaii is an
anomaly. It calls Itself Republic, but
recognizes but small part Of the
population as citizens and voters. This
naturally has led to spirit OF discon'
tent among the excluded classes, and
according to an lesteemed contemporary,
the present system Of popular govern
ment by the minority instead Of By ths
majority, though perhaps necessary In
order 10 produce the beat results, must
prove far from satisfactory A republic
can government with hve-sixths of the
people denied participation in public
Aifsirs is certainly peculiar.
just now the Japanese residents on
the islands are exhibiting symptoms Of
disc ontsnt They are very numerous,
aud II Ia thought that the Mikado and
his advisers will want to know why they
are denied the rights and privileges
accorded to other nationaltiea, Japan
Ia In no mood to take second place any
where, or to allow her citizens to be ill
treatsd in any part Of the globe to which
they may have been tempted by the
promise Of better things in the pursuits
open to all other peoples.
Word comes that there Is a scare at
Honolulu lest Japan shall assert herself
In this direction as soon as her troubles
with China are settled, aud it is freely
admitted that a few ships and thou
sand men could easily help the Japanese
on the islands to the possession and
preservation of what is deemed thsil
rights. The Dole government already
feels the need Of protsotorate, II an
nexstion fails, and evidently stands
ready to give itself to the care anS
virtual control Of the first foreign powel
which viii accept the responsibility.
The United States can be by no mean
an Indifferent spectator In case Of thl
kind. Though Hawaii is far away, W
somehow count the islands as part 0
America, and naturally as belonging t
this continent. Our people will nsve
be content to see European or Asiati
protectorate established over thos
Islands But this can scarcely bs pre-
vented unless we ourselves step in an
furnish the needed assistance, either b
g protectorate or annexation, and eithe
10 contrary to our established policy an
the genius Of our institutions
That the present government will b
able to stand II left to itself Ia not at a
probable. The great majority OF th
people on the islands were not consulta
In It's establishment and are not no
recognized as constituent elements in II
make up. They submit to the exclusio
now, but will not do SO always. An
that the more far-seeing members Of Il
Dole administration view 1t in that ligl
Is proven by the notes Of alarm alreac
sounded. and especially by this fear

The Nicaragua Canal.

From the Doylsstown Intelligencer.
Ambassador Bayard favors the joint
ownership OF the Nicaragua canal by
Great Britain and the United States
There seems TO be disposition upon the
part Of quite a large element of the
present administration to toady to
England deal more than necessity or
courtesy demands. This country dis
solved partnership with England some
thing over a hundred years since, and. It
would be better as well as more
creditable that such relations be not
renewed II England wants q canal let
her get one somewhere elsa. and have 1t
for herself. This one at Nicaragua
should be controlled exclusively by
Inhabitants OF America and managed in
American interests. Under no circum
stances should a partnership be entered
into with Great Britain by the United
States for this or other purposes.
