SENATOR MORGAN RETURNS.

We Must Have Those Islands.

San Francisco. Oct. 19.-Sena tor
Morgan and his daughters. and +. NJ.
Hatch. the new minister from Hawaii,
were among the passengers who ar
rived from Honolulu on the steamship
Belgic today.
Senator Morgan expressed himself as
well pleased with what he saw and the
manner in which he was entertained
while on the islands. He is more than
ever enthusiastic on the subject of an
neXation. and intmated that Hawaii
may become a part of this country be-
fore the closing of the present year.
He said: Hawaii is certainly going
to be a state. but whether 1t will be
at the time of it's annexation or later
remains to he seen. Should it he an
neyed as a territory the Hawaiian com
mission will recommend that the island
be admitted to statehood and a special
act of congress would undoubtedly fol-
low.
81 have favored annexation from the
beginning. but ] was surprised on in
vestigatiflg the matter to find that the
arguments in favor of annexation had
been underestimate. In my opinion,
Hawaii is absolutely indispensable to
these United States. and we must have
those islands. The only opposition
found was that of few of the Liliuo-
kaIani royalsts, who have no weight
over there and are for the most part
royalists for revenue only"
Senator and the Misses Morgan will
leave for their homo ut Selma, Ala,
