THE MESSAGE.
Foreign Relations and Cur

President wilt Go 10 Canton.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The message of
President Mckinley will be devoted
practically to the subjects of our for
eign relations and the currency prob
lem. 1t will be unique in one respect,
in that it ignores the great bulk of
| matters usually constituting the de-
partmental portions of Presidential
annual messages. There is scarcely q
reference to the subject matter of the
annual reports of the cabinet, the Pres
ident's purpose being to call attention
only to the more important affairs of
the government. For this reason the
postal savings project of the postmas-
ter general is not discussed in the mes
sage.
Wnile the details of the currency
plank are not definitely known, it can
be authOritatively stated that it is in
the main an Incorporation of the views
submitted by Secretary Gage, though
as to details the President leaves him.
self freedom of action by not taking
any position with reference to several
features of the secretary's plan while
endorsing it's main object.
Strong presentation of the Hawaiian
question is made and Congress is urged
to take immediate action by ratifica-
ton of the treaty of annexation. This
part of the message strongly depicts
the necessity for making the island
part OF the domains of the United
States and reviews the advantages
that would accrue to the country by
its possession.
AS to Cuba. the message calls atten-

the island. refers to the scheme of au-
tonomy just offered by Spain and after
reciting other developments in the sit
uatiOn, reaches virtual conclusion
that existing circumstances do not
warrant interference in the affairs Of
the island.
Considerable attention is paid to the
question of reciprocity negotiations
with various countries in Europe
Special Commissioner Kasson has been
working on this subject for some time
and the message deals with some Of
the developments of negotiations al
ready had and expresses the hope that
the administration may secure salts
factory results in the future. The
policy of the administration on this
subject is outlined and citing French
campaigns as an illustration. the point
is made that if special concessions are
given any foreign products the United
States must be given equal treatment
by reciprocal concessions.
The Alaskan problem is discussed at
some length and plea is made for
congressional legislation including the
extension of the operation of the public
land laws and the granting of rights Of
way for roads by which all parts of the
country may be made more accessible.
