MR.. EDITOR:-Having just read
Professor Alexander's interesting com
munieation TO your letter of this morn
ing's date, 1 would beg space for few
remarks touching the moral he draws
therefrom. The Professor says
Should the Great Republic reverse its
policy of the past 80 years, reject the
overtures made to it for closer union
by the little Republic of Hawaii and
abrogate the Reciprocity Treaty, clos
ing American markets to that extent
against its products, it could no longer
claim any special privileges in Hawaii
o. expect to retain paramount influ-
ence in Hawaiian affairs"
May l say that, with all due consid-
Grafton for the Professors opinion it
appears a not unreasonable SUPPOSE
ton to expect that, whether we are
annexed or not, whether the Treaty of
Reciprocity is abrogated or not, or
whether we have closer commercial
union or not, the dominating power
and influence of the United States will
always be paramount here. All the
great powers of the world can read
the signs of a determination on the
part of the United States to brook no
interference with matters Hawaiian.
During the troubles of 1898, it was es-
pecially asked in the British House of
Commons if any and what steps were
being taken to protect British inter
ests. The reply was that the Govern
ment felt that British interests would
be well regarded by the Government
at Washington!
Surely those who run can read, and
there seems no question of doubt but
that thorough understanding exists
that, as far as active political action is
concerned, Great Britain is out of the
field of Hawaiian politics. And why?
Simply because the British Govern
ment recognizes what is patent to all
the world, viz: That the natural trend
Of affairs is to keep these Islands in
dependent, the interests of the United
States requiring such condition and
any interference from any source
would be looked upon as a casus belli
Under any and all circumstances the
United States must and will retain q
paramount influence in Hawaii"
I am, sir, yours obediently,
CHARLES F. HART.

suggestive of the master they profess
to follow, the better for the advance
ment of that masters cause. You ask:
If Christ were on earth, would He
sign commissions for such societies?
If he did, then the gentle teaching of
peace on earth, goodwill towards
men," would not have the same effect
it once had. Or, if he were on earth
and learned that part of His temple
had been used as a business meeting
place for those same Sons of the Rev
olUtion, as was the case recently, per-
haps he would be tempted to do again
as he did when he found the people
buying and selling in the temple, when
he said: My house is a house of pray
er."
But after all, perhaps the name is
the worst of it, and may be a misnomer
altogether, for one thing strikes me as
funny-they do not seem to make it a
necessity that a mans ancestors
should have fought in the Revolution.
| draw my inference from the fact that
one gentleman, at least, whose name
appears here at reports of the meet
ings, is a son of Britisher. Where,
then, does his Revolutionary blood
come in? for at the time America threw
off Britain's yoke, his ancestors would
be living at peace amongst the noun
tains and glens of 'puir auld Scot
land" or, if taking part in the Revo-
luton at all, would be fighting on Brit
aims side.
Let them have revolutionary socie-
ties, if they will. | see no harm in
them, but do not let us connect them
with Christ and his church. for there
is a time and place for everything, and
if peace and good will and brotherhood
are to spread, the meetings of Christ
in church on one day and of Revolution
or another is, to say the least, con-
fusing to the ignorant, food for thought
to the intelligent and material in
plenty for ''the fools who come to
scott"
| sincerely trust that your remarks
in this mornings paper may help to
hasten the day when man to man the
world over shall be brothers fer a.
that" And for my part, although l
honestly admire Americans for their
/ fight for liberty and its success, love
and admire them more for the little
band who landed on the wild New
England shore" seeking not, as Mrs.
Heman5 sang
THE wealth of seas, the spoils of war;
They sought faiths pure shrine"

The Sudden Death of George a

Senator Platt to ask him what he had
to say about Mr.. Georges death, he

TO express to the family of Mr.. George

all that this implies in political degra-

Georges death, I wish therefore to say
