InEton TO Fight Il.
HONOLULU, Oct. II via SAN FRAN
CISCO, Oct. 2t.-1t was definitely de-
cided yesterday among the Hawaiians
opposing annexation that a commits
sion OF Eve men should be sent to
Washington TO make determined
fight against the ratification of the an
nexation treaty. At least three Ha-
walIan societies will give their sup
port to the movement. It Is generally
understood that J. o. Carter, q white
man, will head the commission.
A prominent citizen who has recently
returned from Germany, states that the
Hawaiian annexation question is re-
ceiving some consideration among the
German people. A number OF promi-
nent Germans expressed themselves In
favor OF the amalglmation of the two
republics. In that event they think
that Germany should be allowed 10
take Samoa without Interference on the
part of the United States. This they
deem simple matter of fairness and
justice.
The Americans have the greatest
amount OF capital invested IN the Ha-
wallan islands and the country Is thor
oughlV Americanized. In Samoa they
argue che Germans occupy the same
position. The bulk Of the money In
vested there had come from Germany
and therefore Germany had as much
right to absorb Samoa as Uncle Sam to
Hawaii,

HANNA Nor HARMED.

From what can be learned It seems
that the John II. Mclean state COM
mlttee had about come to the conclu-
sion that its campaign of abuse Is doing
Senator Hanna more goA than harm,
and they will revive the silver issue,
and flood the state with silver orators
until the close of the campaign. Elk
Congressman Towne Is already In the
eastern part Of the state and Bryan will
epen at Toledo, and swing down
through the great cities of the state.
Could the Democrats carry Ohio, the
home of Mckinley and Hanna, with
william Jennings Bryan rs their lead
err, they believe It would make him the
presidential candidate in 1900, with sill
YER again the leading issue. The peo-
pie do not want another dose Of hard
times, and the way to prevent n repe-
tttion of the past four years Is to vote
the Republican ticket. This Is the way
to push q good thing along.

centennial of the launching of the Uni

fell throughout the forenoon, giving a
bedraggled appearance TO the decora-

before the hour assigned for the eXer-
cises to begin the historic Old South

lty,
Among those present In the church
were many Daughters of the American

tia, resident United States government
officials and representatives OF foreign
countries; mayors OF New England cit
les, members OF Congress, of the legls-
lature and the governors council and
the officers OF the North Atlantic squad

Governor Woicott acted as presiding
officer and delivered the opening ad-
dress, referring In euloglstlc terms to
the vessel IN honor OF which the ami
versary was held and the patriotism
which marked her history.
Governor Welcott introduced Theo-
dore Roosevelt, assistant secretary of
the navy, who spoke in part as fol-
lows: 1.-THE moment of the Constitu-
tion's launching was the beginning OF
our navy as we know Il to-day, 1t was
fifteen years after the launching OF the
Constitution and her sister ships before
that proud nag which menaced us was
humbled, and during that fifteen years
there were many people who objected
to the maintenance OF a navy.
at was because OF the Constitution
and her sister ships that We came out
OF the war with credit, and II is due TO
a policy contrary 10 that which prompt

In recent years brought US 20 danger

Hon. NJ. A. Hanna will speak at the
Martins Ferry opera house next We'd
Resday evening, In company with Con-
gresham Lorenzo Danford and Prose-
cutting Attorney G. l.. Weems. The
meeting will doubtless be the largest
and best ever held In the Martins Ferry
opera house, The details have not yet
been made. but the opera house has
been secured for Wednesday night, and
1t is positively known that the meeting
will be held that evening. The exact
hour of the arrival OF the speakers Is
not yet known. 1t is likely that boys
and girls will not be admitted to the
opera house that evening In order to
make room for the adults who wish to
attend. The opera house Will seat many
more people than any other building in
Martins Ferry, and while It will hold a
very large crowd, 1t will be filed to its
utmost capacity upstairs and down,
even with extra seats for the occasion.
This is by far the best place in Mar
tins Ferry for the meeting, and all who
attend can hear the speeches, which VIII
be good ones. AS far as hearing Is con-
cerned, the gallery seats are as good as
the chair seats down stairs, and those
in charge will see that good order Is
maintained, so that all can hear The
house Will be nicely decorated for the
occasion. The doors will be thrown
open at Z o'clock. or soon thereafter,
and the great meeting will be called to

will be more satisfactory than an out

and will not be interrupted with noise
like at outdoor meetings. II win be

everything they say, and the people Will
