THE RESOLUTION.

Nothing else could have been
expected from an organization
whose sole object of existence was
10 procure the annexation, pure
and simple, OF Hawaii to the
United States, than that at
meeting Of its executive to resus-
citate it from dormancy of two
years a resolution should be pass
sd reaffirming the same object.
At this meeting there was,
however. distinct acknowledg.
ment, by leaders who ought
to know what they were talk
ing about, that an educational
campaign was needed, not merely
to bring over to the cause original
opponents, but to reclaim original
supporters who had changed their
minds on the question. The gen.
eral tone of the meeting was in
striking response to the views
lately held by this paper. One
gentleman argued against the
reasonableness Of the proposition
that there would be any reference
Of the question to the people of
Hawaii in general. But in the
BULLETINS discussion of this
point, it was not a theory OF
local expediency which was
propounded, but principle of
American policy rs old as the
Declaration OF Independence,
which has been uttered by many
notable American visitors to these
islands, and constantly held by no
inconsiderable portion OF the AM
ericau press. The fac ought to
be recognized instead Of antagon-
lied, for it gives a cue to the line
of campaign that, unless Ameri-
can principle and precedent be
thrown to the winds, must be fol-

giant fore sight are locking

mas gifts. This year we have

ty of goods, snowy and sub
stantial articles for all classes
of society. We have no more
for the rich than the poor, we
cater to the taste of all, and
the result has been very salts
factory to us in a business way.
We have a number of sta
tuettes in Parian marble, one
J of which will be an acquisition
to any home. The list com
pr'ses: Lady Godiva, Early
Struggles, Europa, Robinette,

Abandoned. These are of
good size for the table or Gen.
ter piece on a mantel.
Another neat gift is cup

ceptable presents.

lowed to reach the goal.
There is one way other than
that line, which it has been in the
mind of the BULLETIN to indicate,
whereby complete union with the
great Republic might be securely
anchored at the end of the vista
of Hawaii's prospects. 1t is ex-
ceedingly simple, besides prob
ably more feasible than Judge
Hurtwell's suggestion of an Act
of Congress saying merely, "Ha-
wall is hereby annexed to the
United States" There is a con-
viction in tho minds of many
thoughtful people that the
day is not far distant when
the interests of civilization and
Humanity may make it the moral
duty OF the United States to raise
her flag over other insular coun-
tries in both the Atlantic and the
Pacific. In other words, that the
march of events will compel the
United States to become colo
nizing power. Why cannot she
make a beginning with the re.
MAJ kably clear opportunity now
presented by the relations subsist
ing between Hawaii and her
self? This could be done
by an Act of Congress- per-
hitting the Hawaiian Islands
to declare their territory rs n de-
tendency Of the United States,
and the American flag as their
supreme national ensign, with all
the protection that such conditions
would imply, while the Republic
Of Hawaii should continue its
career under its own laws until it
should attain to the conditions
necessary for admission as State
in the Union. Exceptions to such
condition of Hawaiian local in.
dependence could be enacted with
out any difficulty, under which
the treaty making power, as we'll
as a degree of control over the
customs tariff, would be surrender
ed by Hawaii to the United States.
Such an arrangement would carry
the United States little if any
thing farther in domination of Ha-
waiian interests than the position
she has maintained for the past
four years. 1t would fit the de-
clared policy of the party that has
elected the next President like a
glove.

sixteenth OF an lnCh nom the
bottom Of the Pot, thus pre-
venting any possible escape
of the steam and aroma.
DIRECTIONS
The coffee used should be
ground very fine and placed in
the inner chamber. Pour boil
ing water over the coffee,
cover and allow to remain on
the stove six or seven minutes.
When the coffee is made, raise
the inner chamber and fasten
with the set screw to strain.
The clear amber coffee remains
in the Coffee Pot ready to serve.
The inner chamber may be
lifted out if desired.
POINTS OF EXCELLENCE
4. ECONOMY-lt is a coffee
saver. In a short time it pays
for itself.
?. By using finely ground
coffee you are enabled to OBJ
tain every particle of strength
contained in the coffee.
;. The cloth being stretched
tightly across the bottom of
the inner chamber to strain
the coffee, making a large flat
surface, the coffee is strained
very readily.
4. The cloth used on the
inner chamber being adjustable,
it is easy to remove.
5. There is no place in the
inner chamber, Coffee Pot or
Strainer to collect the sediment
that may make the coffee
muddy.
6. There is no reason why
you should not make coffee
exactly alike }65 mornings in
the year, without the slightest
variation.
7. The coffee will keep hot
longer, because the Coffee Pot
consists of two thicknesSeS
instead of one.
8. You can make one cup of
coffee as we'll and as salts
laCtOrlly as a pot 1ull.
9. The inner chamber may
be removed and washed, and
the clear strained coffee may
be saved for lunch.
10. By not subjecting the
Coffee Pot to extreme heat it
should last a lifetime.
We have these new coffee
pots in one, two, three and
four quart sizes and Sell them
at the San Francisco retail price.
We have also a fine line OF the
old fashioned earthenware tea
pots and something new in the
shape of improved tea strainerS,
which are both ornamental
and cheap.
We have a full line of
kitchen ware in tin and agate.
