some few miles away from the
Coast.

The Congress itself is another
evidence of the growing separation
of sentiment between the Eastern
and Western sections of America.
The Eastern men were not invited
to attend its meetings. 1t drew
the line at the Mississippi valley.
1t seemed to regard the vast people
to the Eastward as either indiffer-
ent or lukewarm. 1t created in a
certain sense, sectional lines. The
irrigation question, the transporta-
ton question, the Nicaragua canal
project are questions of the pocket
in the West. The active men of
that section are not engaged in
philanthropy. 1t is the material
West they hope to develop, and
they propose to do it, even if the
East will not help them. As the
Congress was made up mainly of
silver men, the East was distrust-
full, and its Press made little re-
ference to it.

in large illuminated letters over
the gate. A crowd of people stop
ped to look at it. Suddenly an
ignorant man in the crowd, read
ing it, pronounced it as if it were
spelled Conquered" and shouted
out, "EE says we're conquered!
The mob took it up. Were con-
quered are we? 'eave a brick at
hit" A gentleman standing near
said to an angry laborer, with
cobble stone in his hand, Con.
corde, my friend, means good
will" 'Blowed if we be conquer
ed by French monkeys" and the
cobble stone went over the wall.
The gate was broken down, the
windows were smashed, and the
crowd finally dispersed by the
police and the guards. Whenever
flight of contemporary" grass
pellets flies in through the editor
ial window, we say, "Ah! more of

The failure of the Eastern PEG
pie to notice the proceedings Of
this important Congress is only
another piece of evidence, showing
the enormous extent, and varied
interest of the American people
1t is almost impossible for one sec
ton to take any interest in the per
sonal affairs of the other, and this
relation will express itself in poll
tics sooner or later, though with
out danger, it is hoped, to political
unity, in spite of the fears of the
students.

THE SALT LAKE CONGRESS-.

-
THE SALT LAKE CONGRESS-,
We have received copy Of the
"otficial proceedings of the Trans
Mississippi Commercial Conyen-
tion," held in Salt Lake City on
July 18th, of this year.
Not the least prominent portions
of the proceedings We're the speech
es of Mr.. w. A. Kinney and Mr..
L. "A. Thurston, on behalf of the
annexation of Hawaii. The texts
of the speeches appear in full, and
contain what we knew they would
contain, very clear, comprehen-
sive statement of the advantages of
annexation, in its bearings, on the
foreign and domestic relations of
the United States. Mr.. Kinney,
after sketching historically the
origin and growth of themovement,
finally put before the Congress,
the final proposition, that ''the
parting of the ways between Ha-
wall and the United States has
come, and the United States must
make her choice for now and for all
time" This is a bold statement,
and it is, perhaps, ''the wisdom of
the hour"
The course of events in the Pa
cifc is subject to so many I'M
known and unreasonable infu-
ences, it is quite impossible to In
dicate what it will be. Under
present conditions, it seems as il
Mr.. Kinney were correct, and it is
the argument for immediate action
which has the most telling force in
Washington. But we have some
belief that there cannot be any
parting of the ways. Behind the
present policy of American states
men is force, which will control
and dictate to them. A majority
of these statesmen may reject an
nexation, for the time being. But
behind them are the growing com
mercial forces, which after sleeping
a deep sleep in America, have now
awakened and will, we believe
allow no parting of the ways. Thi.
view, however, does not detract
from the force and eloquence Of
Mr.. Kinney's speech.
Mr.. Thurston's speech was an
other statement of the Fighter
objections" raised against annexa
ton, and the answers to them. AZ
of the objections are met boldly
seriously and effectively.
The attitude of the Congress
was favorable to the Hawaiian
delegates. Mr.. Varian of Utal
made a brief speech in opposition
to the resolution endorsing annex
alton. He objected to the grantin:
of citizenship to the natives, ant
wanted to know how the Island
would be governed as a territory
and closed by asking what the EN-
would be, if the American Govern
ment began to add more distan

bers of the Congress seemed t

WHOLLY OWNED"

.
creates considerable interest, and
some very intelligent laymen are
not able 10 understand, among
other matters, why the Supreme
/ Court could hold that the China
was wholly owned" by Col. Mac
farlane, as the statute declares she
must be, when he distinctly stated
that only the legal title was in him
self. and the real owners resided
abroad. For the Court, or for a
lawyer TO make the opinion of the
Court clear to the mind of the lay
man, would require a little essay on
the history Of the origin and growth
of law. governing such cases. By
however, putting another case, it
NAV be better understood, that is,
the nature of the difference between
the real owner and the legal owner,
as Col. Macfarlane claimed to be
in the case of the China. If a.
sells a suit of clothes to B. for $25
and delivers it, and B. puts it on,
but does not pay for it, who is the
legal owner Of the suit, A. or B.!
A. made it, furnished the cloth, and
the labor, and has received nothing
for doing so. Who is the 'owenr'
of the suit, until B. pays for it!
The law says B. is the lawful own
er, and a. cannot touch it. HeI
may sue b. for the price agreed
upon, get Judgment against him,
and issue execution, and if he can
find the suit sell it at auction, and
take the proceeds. And B. may,
even if he does not pay for the
suit, sell it, pocket the money, and
if he is impudent enough, invite
the unfortunate a. to smile" with |
him out of the proceeds. And if
B. chooses to sell the suit, for sec
ond hand stuff, before he has paid
for it, the ole clo' man gets good
title. If B. should say to the Gov
Assessor of Taxes, Il have
not paid for this suit, you 90 and
tax the tailor for it, the Assessor
would reply, your title is good
enough for me-"
The law holds that the suit is
wholly owned by B. At the
same time \. has a strong moral
claim on it, but does not own it.
Strictly speaking, no man is the
exclusive, or real owner of any
property in his possession, so long
as he is in debt. The law holds him
to be trustee for his creditors.
When, therefore, man shows a
bill of sale of vessel, or of horse,
or watch, the Court will not 90
behind that title, except in cases
that have no bearing here. If it
did, all business would soon be
thrown into confusion.
If our law had declared that in
order to register a foreign vessel,
she must be wholly owned and
PAID FOR, by a Hawaiian subject,
there would have been no registry
of the China. The law was loosely
drawn, and we must take the con
sequences.

ing places is one thing. To deter

or discussion, the details of the
subject is another. This plank Is

people. 1t takes time and money
to get there on the tram cars. The
mass of the people cannot use 1t.
Time is a very important matter.
Mr.. Thurston's suggestion was
most valuable one. Fill in about
five acres on the southerly side of
the harbor, within easy walking
distance from the centre of the
town. Make it a plaza. Plant the
right kind of trees and erect lanais.
The views from this spot are sup
erb, the valleys and mountains to
the East, Diamond Head on the
South, and the Waianae range on
the West, with the open sea and
breakers in front. Abundant faci-
titles for bathing can be furnished.
1t would be easily reached by boat,
by car, and on foot. 1t should be
made the most attractive breathing
place in the city. Where one per-
ion would visit Waikikia hundred

At Waikiki, in front of the
causeway, and fronting unoccupied
shore to the North, there is abund-
ant room for sea bathing, all that
will be needed for an indefinite
period in the future. At compafa-
lively small expense, this frontage
may supply every need.
No one can tell, at present, ex-
actly what should be done. Pub
lie sentiment must be aroused and
thorough discussion had. The Am
erican Union party has most i'm
portant work on hand and it should
not undertake to do too much.
The boys platform was sound
enough, when he wanted to be an
angel" But in getting there, he
found many washouts on the
road, and the filling up took more
time than he could spare.
