THE CASE OF HAWAII.


The Chicago Times-Herald discusses
the case of Hawaii at length and
comes to the conclusion that it is one
where the Monroe doctrine might very
we'll be applied. 1t says:
Here is a chance for a rational ap-
plication of the Monroe doctrine. We
cannot suffer any Asiatic monarchy to
colonize what is already in truth and
fact an American colony. President
Cleveland has here an open, incon-
testable and patriotic opportunity
Here will be a victory for the Monroe
doctrine accomplished in peace and
free from the possible faint that might
attach to any Monroe doctrine victory
accomplished by war.
Hawaii may present chance for
annexation but there can be no
rational application of the Monroe
doctrine to it. That doctrine was for
the prevention of the COLOMBIA ton of
the American continents by European
powers and likewise the extension to
them of their systems of government.
How, then, can it be picked up and
carried across three thousand miles of
ocean and applied to a group of Pa
cif1c islands? If it can be made appIc-
able in Hawaifs case. there is nothing
to prevent it applying in any and all
conceivable cases.
The Monroe doctrine was never a
doctrine Of annexation: in fact it was
the very reverse. To attempt to APP
ply it to the Hawaiian islands would
be plain perversion of it. 1t is utter

An UNSETTLED SETTLEMENT.


1t was scarcely to be expected that
the hastily patched UP adjustment of
the Philadelphia street railway strike
would endure for any great length of
time. 1t was a settlement which settled
nothing. All the questions of dispute
were left to the futureAthe demands of
the men for an increase of wages and a
decrease in the hours of work and some
other minor concessions were all left
to the future to settle. We thought
however, that the truce-settlemen you
could not call it--would have lasted
longer than it has because we thought
the men would have learned wisdom
by the experience they gained in their
last attempt to coerce the railway COM
pany. But it appears that they are
slow to learn. for the strike, we regret
to say, is on again. It is not that the
demands of the men are unjust; it is
not that we would not like to see them
succeed; our sympathies are with the
men, but it is the methods they adopt
to enforce their demands that we de-
plore. Those methods result to bhe dis

nearly always result in violence and
rioting; in acts of Iawlessness which es-
TRANCE public sentiment from labor
without which working men cannot
succeed in the maintenance of their
just rights against the encroachments
of organized capital.
In this new outbreak of the Philadel-
phia strike, it seems that the leaders
Of the labor organizations are trying
to persuade the men to continue to
work at the Traction company S
terms while keeping UP the agitation
for what they deem their rights; but
the men refuse to listen to their coun-
sci, and as a result they will more than
likely buy at a high price some more

THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.

The Board Of Education has met
and effected an organization on parti-
san lines. 1t would have been a graci-
Gus and proper thing for President
Dooly to have given one or two chair
manships to those who were not of his
| own political faith, following in this
! respect the example of his predecessor,
! Colonel Nelson. If the organization Of
the Board on political lines was for
the purpose of more or less donating
the schools with politics, then it was a
pernicious thing and its effect on the
schools will be bad in the extreme and
tend to deteriorate them. If, on the
other hand, it was merely a matter
of Board organization and it is not in
tended to extend any further, then it
becomes a matter of little Importance
But in any event it is the duty of the
people of the city to jealousy watch
the management Of their school system
to see that it is kept UP to it's present
high standard and that nothing is al
lowed to lower it. Nothing could be
worse for the schools than the intro
duction into them of politics, and the
politics of one party would be as bad
as those of another.
Salt Lake City is justly proud of her
system of public schools. They rank
along with the best in the country
They have cost the people a great deal
of money. but they have not be-
grudged it for it has all been well
spent and the results are patent to all
in fine school buildings and better
teaching of the pupils. Ever since the
inauguration Of the present school sys-
TEN the School Boards elected at
different times have had but one OBJ
ject in view that object has been the
best interests of the schools and their
pupils. Their administration Of the
taxes levied for the schools has been
honest and generally very economical.
This fact has caused the people to
cheerfully bear what has been some
what Of burden to them in the way
Of school taxes. If there shall be a
radical departure from the methods of
the former School Boards by the pres
ent one in the way Of introducing poll
tics into school matters. the people
will refuse to longer bear these bur-
dens. We trust. that the fear ex-
pressed in some quarters that the
Board intends to introduce politics into
1 the schools is entirely without founda-
| ton.

have chosen to take their oaths of Of
fee and the career of statehood VIII
have begun.
Let us only say this in conclusion;
Though between the time of the intro
ductfon of the enabling act into the
House and its final passage through
Congress Utah went Republican,, the
way of statehood was not blocked on
that account. the door of statehood was
not shut in the face of Utah either by
a Democratic Congress or a Democrat
ic President. though in the estimation
of some Utah had become hopelessly
Republican. In taking that course the
national Democracy rose above the
kind of partisanship we have some
times heard expressed in Utah, and it
is to be hoped that Democracy will al
ways do SO.
History will record. and we are proud
that it will be so, that statehood came
to Utah by grace of the Democratic
party.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-01-04
THE END AND THE BEGINNING.

This day of grace. the 4th of jan
uary, 1896, will terminate the terri
torial existence of Utah. It is expected
that by high noon today the last act
necessary to admit Utah into the
American Union on an equal footing
with the original states will be per-
formed. President Cleveland today
will issue his proclamation saying that
the requirements of the enabling act
under which the constitution of the
state was framed having been COM
piled with on the part of the people of
Utah. therefore. he, in further pur-
suance of that act, now declares Utah
to be a state in the American Union.
That proclamation will send a thrill
of JOY through the hearts of all the
people of the state. The thing so long
desired win be realized. Six times be-
fore this successful attempt have the
people of Utah tried to gain admis-
sion into the Union. Once in 1919. two
years after the pioneers first entered
Salt Lake valley. Once in the decade
Of 1850 then again in that Of 1860, and
again in that of 1870. In the SOS two
attempts were made and both failed.
Small wonder if hope went out of the
hearts of some when they saw these re-
peated attempts to secure statehood
repeatedly fail. But failure was not
destined to be permanent The best
hopes of Utah's best people were to be
realized when the fullness Of the
time should come: and that time has
now come. We regret that so many
of the fathers who laid the foundations
Of this commonwealth have fallen
asleep before the full fruition of their
hopes could be realized: but while we
regret their obsence, we are pleased to
know that some of that brave band Of
pioneers who blazed civilizations way
to this intermountain wilderness are
still with us to see the common wealth
of Utah take her place in the grand
sisterhood Of American states.
Farewell, territorial vassalage, we
take an eternal farewell of you today.
The captive by long communion may
at last look upon his very chains as
friends; the prisoner become 50 used
to his dungeon as to regain his free
dom with a sigh; but we part with
territorial vassalage without one re
gret, except that it has lasted so long.
Hail, sovereign statehood, with out
stretched hands we greet you; and
with you this day the people of Utah
begin a career which will not end until
Utah's star shall be among the bright
est in the old flags crowded space.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-01-04

nonsense to say that the little republic
is already in truth and fact an Ameri-
can colony" An independent govern
ment is not a colony. no matter By
whom it may have been settled origin
ally. If the Monroe doctrine is ap-
plicable to Hawaii on the theory that
it is an American colony, then it is
equally applicable to the American
colonies in London, Paris and Berlin.
The question Of the policy of an
nexing the little republic to this coun-
try is one wholly separate and dis
tinct from the Monroe doctrine, and to
attempt to distort it in the manner
proposed is wholly unwarranted and
would meet with popular disapproval.
And those who would make it show
neither common sense nor patriotism.
The Monroe doctrine is clean cut and
allows Of no misrepresentation by any
who care to understand it.

On the occasion of President Harri-
sons visit to Salt Lake May 10, 1891,
there was prominently displayed from
one Of the establishments of this city
a streamer bearing the words-we do
not remember them observation-disclosures
Harrison. liberty came to Utah" The
streamer at the time was the subject
of considera BILE comment. and many
were perDlexed to know its meaning.
Was it meant for prophecy, or was
it meant as a hint to the visiting
President that he might become 1.-THE
Liberator'' by granting statehood to
Utah? 1t did catch the eye of the Pres
ident and he asked its meaning, hut
alasl the one inquired of could not in
terpret the meaning. But whatever
significance was intended, it amounted
to nothing, for liberty-if by that was
meant statehood-did not come TO
Utah under Harrison: and Mr.. Harri-
son, having had no proper conception
Of his opportunities, left it to another
to rejoice in the title of THE Liberia

The State Lands.

We mentioned some time ago that a
law that would really place our lands in
reach Of the actual settlers would be a
good thing for the country. With cur
millions of acres it is an important mat
ter. and we have been fortunate enough
to find a law passed in Wyoming that
we think fills the bill. Under the Jaw
of Wyoming the water rights attach TO
the land and cannot be separated there
from. When parties file on the state
lands they must abide certain rules. The
tracts to which settler is limited is
160 acres. and one eight of it must be
reclaimed within three years. The cost
of the land is 30 cents per acre, half
of which must be paid at time of en-
try-Manti Sentinel
