Thers are frequent intimations-from
how trustworthy source they come
we know not-that one of she first acts OF
| the incoming administration will be to
| make u treaty of annexation with the
government of the Sandwich Islands. 1t
" i'll be remem bered that soon after the
depoeal of Queen LiliOukalani President
Harrison made treaty wi tn this end in
view, but it failed in the Senate, and
President Cleveland refused to revive it.
Since then the Hawaiian government has
been getting along very comfortably,
though its overthrow YVES onco attempted
by the supporters OF the dep osed Queen.
But while the present government has
been able to maintain itself up to the
present time, there are fears that the
growing opposition of the Japanese and
kanakas who far outnumber the whites
in the island and who are allowed to have
no voice in the government,
may eventually become 500 strong
for It, and SO the whites are
advocating annexation to the United
States as a means of keeping the island
out of the hards of the Japanese. Of
course there will be no trouble in annex
ing the island, but when we undertake
to govern it it may be different. Under
our form Of government the majority are
entitled to rule, whether they be black or
white, and accordingly it will be i'm
possible to deprive the japanese residents
of the island of the influence which
tneir NUN bers will entitle them to. with
out violating our own constitution.
There will be serious labor problem to
deal with also. Ths laborers in the Is
land are for the most part coolies, not
much different from slaves, but This
system can hardly be continued under
our constitution and laws. Further
more, anpexation is going to raise some
perplexing immigration problems. We
have now drastic law for shutting out
the Chinese, but il we make Hawaii
a stat. or territory of the American union
we can hardly forbid it's residents, a
great many OF whom will be Chinese,
Journeying to the other states. Call
fornia and the other Pacific states will
like Chinese who come from the Sand
witch Islands no better than Chinese who
come direct from the Flowery Kingdom.
The fact is the annexation Of Hawaii is
not the simple thing that it seeiEs at
first glance. Very grave problems are
sure to arise out of it, which it will be
very difficult to solve satisfactorily. If
the interests of the country demand that
we NEEDLE with the Sandwich Islands at
all protectorate would seem to present
fewer difficulties than annexation. But
neither plan is free f1omstbem.

Senator Morgan says the Senate foreign
affairs committee acted upon the Presi-
dents message in adopting its resolu-
ton. The Senator is very much mistaken.
The committee could never have got out
of the Presidents message the idea that
there was in existeuc e any such thing as
the Republic of Cuba, and that is the
foundation Of their whole resolution. II
there be no such republic of course its
recognition is impossible. What the
President said on the subject is as fol-
lows:
If Spain has not yet Te-established her
authority neither have the Insurgents yet
made good their title to be regarded as
an Independent state. Indeed, as the
cont, st has gone on, the pretense that
civil government exists on the Island,
except SO far as Spain is able to maintain
it, has been practically abandoned.
Spain does keep on foot such govern
ment. more OIL less imperfectly in the
large towns and their immediate suburbs
hut, that exception being made, the en-
trio couptry is either given over to anar-
chy or is subject TO the military occu-
patton of one or the other party. 1t 10
reported, indeed, Oil reliable authority
that at the demand of the commanderin-
chief of the insurgent army, the putative
Cuban government has now given up all
attempts to exercise it's functions, leav-
ing that government confesssdly (what
there is the best reason for surprising it
always to have been in fact) govern
ment merely on paper.
Instead Of an admission that such
republic exists this is an absolute denial
of the existence of that or any other kind
of government except what is maintained
In certain sections Of tho Island by the
Spanish monarchy. Therefore it is alb
surd to say that in recognizing the Re-
public of CUBA the committee '.acted
solely upon the facts in the Presidents
message The truth is it acted without
farfa

Ex-Judge Cooley of Michigan, the dis
tinguishsd authority on constitutional
law. does not agree fully with Secretary
Olney's statement In regard to the au-
thority of Congress and the executive
relative to the recognition of foreign
states. In signed despatch to the New
York Sun he says:
Ann Arbor, Mich, December 19-The
power to recognize belligerency and the
Law fuiness of action in defence of gov
eminent alleged to be defacto must de-
volye upon the executive power Of the
country, which Can recognize no belliger-
emit government until the fact is made
clearly known to It that there is in exis-
tenee government maintaining itself
and enforcing its authority against any
other But the Presidents power is not
complete and final. The sovereign legis-
lative power must provide for final inter.
course and pass laws for the purpose,
laws which the President would be i'm
peachaple if he should not join in exc
outing. What he does in recognizing
new nation 10 clearly in part legislative,
and the act ion taken, II taken by the
President alone, would be so far defec-
tive as TO be impossible of execution
without icing perfected now or in the
future by the sovereign legislative power.
1t would seem to be going rather too
far to say that the recognition of foreign
states belongs exclusively to the execu
tive. The constitution provides that
treatiss with foreign states
shall he made by the Presi-
dent, but two thirds of tho Senate must
approve them before they take effect, and
If any legislation is needed to make them
operative the House must concur in it as
we'll as the Senate. Commerce with
foreign nations is to be regulated by Con-
gress under the constitution. These pro-
visions seem to negative the idea of the
Secretary that foreign affairs are exclu
siyely for the executive to deal with,
though it is doubtless true that for vari
Gus reasons they can be more successfully
treated by the executive in q case like
the one under discussion.

A Great Sneeeh.

We have no hesitation in saying
that the address of Hon. Josiah
Patterson last night was one of the
most powerful discussions of a pub
lie question ever heard in this city.
1t is strikingly different in twore-
spects from the free silver speeches
recently made in Atlanta. 1t was
full of argument and was absolute
ly free from yituperation. 1t was
a calm, logical and complete pre-
sentation of the case against the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
at the ratio of Is to /.
Few public speakers are equal to
Mr.. Patterson in clearness of state
ment and closeness of reasoning.
His premises last night were based
upon statements which were palpa-
bly, fair and facts which are indis-
putable. From these premises he
reasoned directly and irresistibly
to conclusions which no fair-minded
man in his audience could resist.
Although we have had several
visiting free silver orators in At
lanta during this campaign and
though the local genius and elo-
quence which champion that cause
have been turned upon the public
in frequent sluices, we are justified
in saying that We have yet to hear a
systematic attempt to reason out
the silver side of this controversy.
From Charles T. Crisp to Ben
Tillman the free silver speeches we
have had in Atlanta this spring
have, without exception, consisted
almost entirely either of unsupport-
ed assertion, gross misrepresenta-
tiOn and inconsequent conclusions or
of abuse and utilization of the OPP
posents of free coinage.
If the free silver men have a good
cause they are certainly unfortu-
nate in It's presentation.
Last night the great audience at
the Columbia Theatre heard no APP
peal to passion; it was not treated
to an exhibition of mud-sllnging.
The speaker hurled no epithets and
held his discourse as far above vul-
garity as it was above misrepresen-
tation. He appealed to the reason
of his hearers. He threw the light
of logic and history upon the CUES
ton; he argued it like a statesman
and gentleman. This was the sec
ond speech that Mr.. Patterson has
made in Atlanta for sound money
and on both occasions he created
profound Impression.
His speech last night was quite
enough to engage the efforts of
brigade of free silver orators, but
we are safe in the prediction that
neither singly nor collectively will
they tackle it.-Atlanta Journal.
The Bolivar bulletin. (Bolivar, Tenn.) 1888-1946, 1896-05-29

THE is to 1 journals seem
to revel in vituperation,
calumny and prejudicial as
.severations. Their pet
theme is "Wall Street" On
that street men who have
met with success reside, and
have proven by their record
that they are competent to
attend to their own business.
In fact it is hardly probable
that they would consent to
do business on 'Dead-beat
Street" because they do not
belong to that class who have
proven by their record to be
wholly incompetent to at
tend to their private affairs,
yet, nevertheless, seem to
consider themselves quite
competent to steer Alright the
affairs of the nation. In an
cient times the Jews were
of the opinion that nothing
good could come out of Naz-
areth. Their venom for that
city seemed to be equal
to that harbored by the
16 to l journals against Wall
Street. But from Nazareth
came the Savior of the world,
and if this country is saved
from financial destruction, it
will not be by the advice and
of those journals who
would feel very much at
home on Dead-bcat Street,
but by men who have attain
ed success. 1t matters not
where they reside, but for
them to possess ability and
craftsmanship is the all i'm
portant requisite.

WITHIN the last so years
the improvement in transit
on land and water has been
indeed wonderful. But it
now seems that we are near
ing the era when human
beings will be conveyed with
raPidity through space. For
sometime past Prof. Langley,
secretary Of the Smithsonian
Institute, has been persistent
in a method by which he hoped
mechanical fight might be
accomplished. The invention
with which he hopes to at
tain success is what he terms
aerodrome, flying machine.
1t resembles an enormous
bird made of steel and driven
by a steam engine. During
the first experiment it reach
ed an altitude of about 100
feet and sailed for about a
half-mile, when the steam
gave out, then slowly and
gracefully it descended to the
earth. The power of the
machine is derived from pro-
pellers. Since the means
have been devised the inn
pTovements will no doubt be
such as to enable the inven-
tor to accomplish the desired
end.
