A STATE OF HAWAII
It's Not Only Desirable But Reilly
 Indispensable
MR. N0RGAN'S ENTHUSIASM
His Annexation Convictions
 Take Deeper Root
No Opposition On the Islands Ex- cept That of RoyaIists for Reve- nue-he Believes 1t will Be Ac- complished Next Year.

San Francisco, Oct. 19.-Senator Morgan and his daughters and F. M. Hatch, the new minister from Ha- waii, were among the passengers who arrived from Honolulu upon the steam ship Belgic today Senator Morgan expressed himself as well pleased with what he saw and the manner in the islands. He is more than ever enthusiastic on the subject of annexa- tion and intimates that Hawaii may become part of this country before the close of the coming year.
 He said: Hawaii is certainly going to be a state, but whether 1t will be at the time of its annexation or later remains to be seen. Should it be annexed as a territory the Hawaiian commissioners will surely recommend that the islands be admitted to state- hood and a special act of congress would undoubtedly follow. I have favored annexation from the begin ming, but I was surprised upon in arguments in favor of the movement had been understated. In my opinion Hawaii is absolutely indispensable to the United States, and we must have those islands. The only opposition I found was that of few Lilioukalani royalists, who have no right over there and are for the most part roy alists for revenue only.'
 The senator and the Misses Morgan will leave here for their home in Sel- mn. Ala, in a few days.

 in His Bed.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-Geo.ge M. Pull man died suddenly of heart disease this morning in his magnificent brown stone house, corner of Prairie av- enue and Eighteenth street. He was found dead in his bed.

 MT. Pullman, who was in his sixty sixth year, had not been enjoying his usual good health during the summer. The extreme heat of last week gen. orally aggravated his disease, known to medical science as angina pectoris.
 Geprge M. Pullman ,came to Chicago in 1859. He at once took promi- nent place in business circles. In 1880 owing to the growing demands of his manufacturing interests he put into execution a pet theory for the estab- ushment of a model town as home for his car works, and the thousands of employees. A site was selected Cn the shores of Lake Calumet, twelve miles south of Chicago. MT. Pull man devoted his personal attention to the erection of little city and sue ceeded even beyond his expectations in making a model town. Pullman now has a population of 11,OO0.
 MT. Pullman's wealth is variously estimated at from $12,000,000 to $3O,- 000,OOO His financial interests are confined to few corporations, the bulk of the holdings being stock in the Pullman Palace Car company, of which he owned about one-tifth. NJ. Pullman was married in 1867 to Miss Hattie Sanger of Chicago, and four children are living, George, Sanger, Harriet and Florence The latter was married to Frank o.

Battle Creek, Mich. Oct 19.-The trend of papers and discussions at the civic-philanthIop;c conference dur ing the week has been quite social- istic. Today Rev. A. B. Craig of AL bion college read a paper on "Eth.cs of Socialism," in which he denounced socialistic doctrines and created some thing of a sensation. He gave re- view of socialism and outlined sec a. istic teachings. He said that tha eth ical idea of socialism as not a lofty one. It rejected religion and morals; 1t destroyed incentive and aspiration, and, in practice, would break up the home. The equality attained under that system would be a dead loss cf mediocrity- If material well being was assured, there would be no ef- fort. Necessity is the mc her Of i7- vention. The best development must come through personal development Socialism is the outcome of material istic philosophy.

NOT LESE Majestic
Wisconsin Supreme Court Holds
Judicial Acts May Be Criti-
cised by the Press.

MADISON, Wis, Sept. %. Justice
Winslow of the Wisconsin supreme
court handed down an important de.
cision during the day. The opinion is
in the case of the proceedings for con-
tempt of court by Judge w. F. Bailey
of Eau Claire against H. 9. Ashbaugh
and L. A. Doolittle. The court says:
"We are well persuaded that newspa-
per comments On cases finally decided,
prior to the publication, cannot be con.
sidered criminal contempt"
After reviewing the rights of courts
and emphasizing the importance that
they should perform their grave public
duties u%nimpeded and unprejudiced by
illegitimate influences, Judge Winslow
says:
An Arbitrary Proceeding.
::Truly, it pust be a grievous and
weighty necessity which will justify SO
arbitrary a proceeding whereby a car.
didate for Office beomes the accuser,
judge and jury, and may within a few
hours summarily punish his critic by
Imprisonment. The result Of such q
doctrine is that all unfavorable criti-
cism of a sitting judges past official &C.
ton can he at nee stopped by the judge
himself, or, if not stopped, can be pun
ished by immediate imprisonment. II
there can be any more efectual way to
gag the press and subvert freedom Of
speech, we do not know where to find
it. Under such a rule the merits of q
sitting judge may be rehearsed, but, as
to his dement's there must be profound
silence. In our opinion no such divin.
ity doth hedge about a judge. certainly
not when he is a candidate for public
office"
Brief History of the Case.
Judge Bailey presided in the circuit
court of Eau Claire county and was a
candidate for reelection. During the
heat of the campaign, a lawyer, DIR.
Doolittle, published in Ashbaugh's
newspaper an article several columns in
length, charging the judge with being
~extravagant in the management of the
court and with being partial and unfair
in respect to his official conduct in the
trial of cases and with being Influenced
by corrupt motives. These charges all
referred to proceedings and cases al
ready heard and decided, and not in
matters then pending or on trial
March 81 an editorial article appeared
in the newspaper strongly opposing
Judge Balley's candidacy and
Summarizing the Charges Against Hin
which had been made at length in thu
Doolittle article. April Judge Bailey
made an order on his own motion re
quiring H. H. Hayden and 7. F. Fraw
ley to institute contempt proceeding
against Ashbaugh and Doolittle on &C
count OF the publications. Upon tn
assembling of the cou at that tim
the alternative writ Of prohibition wa
was served upon Judge Bailey. There
upon Judge Baily announced that IL
would not proceed further with tn
pending proceedings, but at once mad
an order adjudging A%shbaugh and Doc
little guilty of a new contempt i'll tn
immediate presence of the court. TIL
order was never executed by the sheriff
