The evening.
DR.. Cruzar gave a most scholarly ad.
dress upon heroism. He opened with a
brief outline OF the events of the battle of
Bunker Hill, and the wonderful effect
this battle had upon the history of our
own and other nations. TIE main head
OF his discourse, true heroism, was sub.
divided into four parts, which be desig-
mated characteristics of True Heroism -
The first characteristic was exemplitied
most clearly b. the makers of our Nation
III the giving of themselves whole heart
edly and entirely to their great cause.
The second characteristic, faith sight.
enables the nero to see as other men do
not seas Luther. William of Orange,
Washington and Lincoln saw the way out
of the dark circumstances which sur
rounded them.
The third characteristic, courage, DR..
CruZan described as not that endurance
which would enable two men to meet and
pound each other 70 a jelly in prize
ring, but that power which enables a man
TO meet foes and misfortunes, both rural
and physical. whether in battle or from a
pure sense Of duty which he encounters
in everyday life.
Supreme courage. the fourth character
istic, he said was self sacr fce-that sac
rifce which makes a man willing to give
up limb or life to the cause he espouses
and which gives him power 10 heroically
meet his misfortune or death. There
can be no true courage" said DR.. CruZan,
without this characteristic"
The address closed with short practical
application of thee ideas to present dav
needs. After chorus os America"

paragraphs in the preamb bic, which were
approved by majority OF the delegates.
The American Railway Union Conyen-
ton, after wrangling all day over Debs'
plan for the welfare of labor, passed a
resolution, almost unanimously, indors-
ing the plans ana to carry them into ef-
feet as soon as possible. There were only
three dissenting votes. The new organ
ization will be called the Royal Democ-
racy o. America. Its declaration of prin-
ciples IS: Labor, manual and meutal,
being the sole creator OF wealth, 1T right
fully follows that those who perform all
labor and create all wealth should en- Joy
the results OF their efforts"
This, ii declares, as rendered impos-
slble by the modern system OF production.
Labor-saying machinery is the pro-
nounced great detriment to the individu ual
laborer. The fruits of cooperative la Dor
in gigantic factories is appro opriatsd by
the owners of machines, mines, lands and
means of transportation. Our despotic
system of economics is the direct oppo-
site 10 our democratic system OF politics.
1t perpetuates ignorance and misery with
all their concomitant evils, which makes
human labor produce goods TO be bought
in the open market and places no real
value on human life. Science and inven-
tion are diverted from their humane pu-.
poses and made the instruments for the
ensiavement of men and the starvation
OF women and children"
The resolution asks all honest citizens
10 unite under the banner of social dem
ocracy, so as to "be ready to conquer pi-
talists by making use of our political Ii D.
erty and takikg possession of the public
power, so that we may put an end TO the
present barbarous struggle by the aboli-
;ion of capitalism and the restoration of
land and all means of production, trans
portation and distribution to the people

present state of planless production"
The resolution provides that one of the
States of the Union is to be selected and
its sphere of operations extended until

The negotiation which has eliminated in

Up to the Treaty.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-THE
following is the full text of the message
sent TO the Senate by President Mckinley
yesterday to accompany the Hawaiian
treaty:
transmit herewith to the Senate. in order
that aller due consideration the constitutional
1uhclen oil advice and consent may be ex-
erclsed by that body, treaty for the annexa-
non OF the Republic of HAWAII to the United
states, signed in this capital by the plenipo-
tentlaries of the parties on The 10th of June.
For the better unde rstanding of the subject,
transmit, in addition. report of the Secre-
tary OF STATE, briefly reviewing the negotiations
which have led 10 his important result.
The incorporation of :he Hawaiian Islands
lnto the body polite of the United States is
the necessary and ftling sequel to the chain of
events which, IRON a very early period OF our
MS Ory, has con ntrolled the Intercourse and
prescribed the associations of the United States
ana the hawaiian Islands. The predomtnance
OF American interests in that neghboring ter
Tltory was first asserted in 1920 by sending TO
the islands a representative OF the United
STATES. II found further expression by the
Signature OF treaty OF friendsh ip, commerce
ana navigation with the King in 1S26-the frs {
international compact negotiated by Hawaii.
IL was slgnal,y announced in 1S43. when the
intervention of the United States caused the
BrltiSh Government to disavow the seizure of
Inc sandwich Islands by British naval CON-
mandeT, and 10 recognize them by treaty as an
independent state, renounclug forever any
purpose OF annexing the ISLANDS or exertinG a
protectorate over them
In 1891 the cession of the Hawaiian King
dom to the United States was formally offered,
ana although not then accepted this Govern
ment proclaimed its duty 10 be to preserve
allke the honor and dignity OF the United
states and the safety OF the Government OF
the HawaEan Islands
FROM this time until the outbreak of the war
IN 1851 the policy of the Uni ted States toward
Hawah aud the Hawaiian sovereign toward
me united states was exempiifed by contin-
ued negotiations for annexation or for a re-
served commerce al union The latter alterna-
tive wss az length accomplished by the
reciprocity treaty. Of 1870, the provisions of

view in the matter, says: I'VE have no
