JUDGE A. S. HARTWELL GIVES \
PERSONAL "REMINISCENCES.
Had a Talk With the Chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee-Im-
preston Received at that Time.

| first saw Maj. Mckinley at the
Ebbitt House in July of 1890. My
business in Washington was watching
the exciting debate then going on in
Congress upon the sugar thrift. Nc
Kinley's bill proposed to remove the
duty on sugar, thereby causing a loss
of revenue amounting to over S40,000,-
600, to be'made up by imposing duties
on other things. 1t was believed by
many opponents of the bill that the
duty on sugar was taken off to please
the Sugar Trust, and also TO make it
appear that other goods would be re-
quired to pay a larger duty, and thus
please those who were interested in
domestic products.
Mckinley received me in IN
easy agreeable way, saying that his
brother Dave" had written to him
about me. / Said 1--WE were surprised
at your taking off the sugar duty.
Mills bill proposed to take off only 2j
per cent and we regarded you as a
tower of strength for us in Hawaii.
How did Won come to do it?'
Mckinney replied: 81 should have
h,on botter satisfied with tal,inr
off 80 per cent of the duty. The COM

At SPECIAL SESSION.
Minister Hatch Believes Hawaii VIII
then Receive Attention.

The last mail brought letters to the
Foreign Office from Minister Hatch,
Washington and Minister Cooper, Bos-
ton. The latter gives full accounts of
interviews held by him with public
men in Boston and congressman, and
speaks most hopefully of annexation,
Minister Hatch does not think the
question of annexation will be brought
up at this Congress, but says it Ger
tainly will at the special session next
spring. He gives as a notable thing
the change of sentiment IN number
of prominent newspapers heretofore
opposed to annexation.
Minister Cooper will return by the
China on the cath inst. Letters writ
ten after his arrival in Washington
were not received by the mail brought
on the Australia.

The council have been plainly told the
legal status of the question and their
vacilIation can only be accounted for by
one and the true reason. Some of them,
although they have canvassed their
constituents carefully, have not yet
made up their minds on which side their
bread is buttered and are afraid to Of
fend anybody. The councilmen really
need not bother their heads about such
n contingency. Their already estab-
lished record will be amply sufficient
reason why the majority of them should
not be foolhardy enough to court re-
election.

The city council continues TO wrestle
with the sunday closing question. 1t

time the matter is up Cor discussion the
municipal statesmen become more deep
ly entangled in the meshes of inconsis-
tency. Whenever an attempt is made
to pass the ordinance, up jumps a mem
Der of the council with an amendment
providing for the exemption Of this, that

And There Are Others

The New York Sun, in its Jealous op-
position to Mr.. Bryan has shown much
bias in its descriptions of Mr.. Bryan 5
trip from Lincoln, Neb., to New York.
It has worked the phrase, Boy Orator
Of the Platte" with unflagging industry,
and when it has departed from that de-
scription it has alluded to the Demo-
cratic nominee for president of the
United States as "Billy Bryan" This
may be the dignified thing to do, by the
New York code; but we presume Mr..
Bryan, if he notices the Sun at all in his
Madison square speech, will not speak
of its editor as Charley Dana.-Cincin-

THE POLITE WORLD
