HIS VIEWS ENDORSED BY HA-
WAITS OLD FRIEND, THE SUN.
Annexation Will Wait Until Mr.. Cleve-
land Is Out of Office Points Made
by Mr.. Foster-Turn of the Tide.
(NeW York SUM-

Although eX-Secretary Foster has
returned from Honolulu with a strong
belief that we ought to annex Hawaii
forthwith, yet the true opinion is, we
think. that Of Mr.. Hatch, the hawaiian
Minister at Washington, namely. that
annexation must wait until Mr.. Cleve-
land is out of Office.
SO strong is his administrator com
mitted against receiving Hawaii so in
delibly marked will it be, in history,
with his attempt at ovcrthrowing the
Republic there and setting up
throne, that his cooperation could not
be expected in any annexation pro-
iect.
Mr. Foster properly points out the
uncertain condition occupied by IIa-
waii, and the relief that would come
to her from being either welcomed
into the Union or definitely shut out
and allowed to plan her own course.
He dwells on the strong foreign labor
element in the islands, notably the
japanese and Chinese, which may
some day become a menace to the
! peace of the Governments. under the
present political system. But it seems
to be a sufficient answer to both points
| that the little time of waiting that
still remains for Hawaii is small com
pared with the nearly four years that
have already elapsed, and she has a
sound and efficient Government for
! this interval.
As to the possible attempt of any
other country to seize Hawaii, it need
not be thought of for a moment. The
islands are universally conceded 10 us
whenever we may choose to take
them. Hawaii herself has always dis
dfiined the attempt to quicken our ac-
ton by either real or rumored rela-
tions with other countries that mi !, ht
give MS anxiety She is fixed and loyal
in her resolve either to be admitted
into the Union or to remain an is1-
lated Republic.
And as the honor of anneNing Ha-
waii does not belong to the Cleveland
administration. as that NdmniStra-
ton should go upon the record wifi
its past Hawaiian policy in no respect
eNtenuated or redeemed. so il woul(
probably be unwisc to precipitate h,
discussion of the subject at the com
ing session of Congress. The session
will be crowded with other subject,
of prime and urgent importance, auC
: there would be little leisure for tn,
annexation project, even if it could b,
= carried to fruitful result.
: The 4th of March, now not far away
= should mark the turn of the tide fo
Hawaii.

The Feeling Reported by Sir Audley
Coote-Development with Cheaper
Labor-Japanese knowledge.

~ was travelling on railway in
Japan with a friend of mine, who
speaks japanese huently (reports Mr..
Audley Coote, who has just returned
| from visit to that country), when he
asked me if | could guess what a num-
ber of japanese military and naval Of
| fcers, who were in the car, were con-
versng about. 1t is Australia he
continued, and they are saying that
/ you have large country, fine pastoral
| lands, great forests, and in the north
/ excellent land for the cultivation of
| rice, coffee. tea and other tropical pro-
| ducts; that you are like the dog in
| the manger among nations, and that
someone will have to take a good part
of Australia to develop it. My friend
also told me that the officers spoke
about it being a great pity to see so
| fine country lying waste, and though
they recognized that England was a
useful nation to have as an ally, still,
! if ill-feeling arose the policy they
ought to pursue was to send several
of their battleships down south to AM
mex large portion of Northern Aus
tralia. These statements | found were
only one expression of public opinion
in Japan in regard to Australia, and
when YOU consider the matter it is not
surprising that a small country. TEEN.
ing with its 45 millions, should regard
Australasia with o0ly its millions
with a certain amount of coyetous
ness.

URGENT EFFORT TO SECURE SER

The agents of the Revolutionary So
ciety of China in Honolulu are active
again. Within the past week several
residents of the city, including four
members of the regular guard, have
been approached by well known Chin

to bid adieu to Hawaii and enter China
i'm behalf of the cause.
Among these latter who have been
taken into the confidence of the cum
ming Celestials is Sergeant Frank
Ferry of Company F. Sergt. Ferry is
an excellent soldier and is drill master
in several volunteer companies. His
success in instructing men in the man

to the knowledge of the rebelling
Chinese and they are anxious that he
should go to China and drill their
countrymen who are in sympathy
with their plans, in order that they
