A RACE FOR HAWAII.

If. as recent Washington advices
state, the Hawaiian question is
simply one of annexation by the
some other European power, there can
be little doubt as to the duty of our
government in the premises. If there
were only the alternative Of annexation
by this country or remaining an
Independent republic. We might we'll
hesitate and be governed by the ex-
pressed wishes of the people chiefly in
terested in the matter, but when
there is a third alternative and that
means occupation by another power,
perhaps Japan, the matter is entirely
different. The position of the islands
in the center OF the Pacific Is such as
to command to large extent the COM
washed by its waves, and the control
of that center, If assumed by some
body else, would mean irreparable loss
to the United States
1t Is believed by people In position
to know, that the natives themselves,
or a great many of them. would gladly
accept annexation by the United
States, provided they We're guaranteed
their rights as citizens. They would
interpose no objection to becoming an
integral part of the Union, as they
realize that the independence of their
state depends on the protection of
some government strong enough to
command the respect of others And
even IL some OF the Hawaiians, as al
legged, do not believe that independence
under the stars and Stripes Is prefer
able TO monarchy under British pro-
| tectorate, that fact alone can have but
a secondary bearing on the policy OF
the United States, as far as the in
| terests of this country are vitality af.
| fected.
1t is now claimed that there are de.
clsive proofs of the fact that the Ha-
waiian commissioners in Washington
are working in the interest of tn,
downfall of the republican form o
government in the islands and the es
Establishment of Princess Kaiulani OF
the throne. and that this is one reason
why the matter cannot be discussed il
an open session of the Senate. II thi
is true, 1t has come to this, that tn
United States must act promptly IL
the matter one way or another, o
lose the opportunity to do anything a
all for long time to come.

Salt Lake City Is probably not worse
than any other city of a similar size,
in the Union, or in the world; probably
1t Is much better than many; yet there
are conditions that demand for their
correction the earnest efforts of wise
and morally good servants of the pub
lie. A recent occurrence is one among
many in proof of this. If there are
dens within the corporation limits
where men and women can congresate
and indulge in debauchery, quarrels
and murderous assaults with pistols
and razors and II 1t has come to this
that one clnss of toughs contemplate
the killing off of another class, TO
even things up" it is time something
were done to purify the atmosphere for
the benefit of citizens by cleaning out
both gangs, and extinguishing abso-
lutely the respective dens and haunts
of each.
Unfortunately some people see in
political success only means or OBJ
tanning offices for The money there Is
in them. directly and indirectly. They
claim as their right the reward for po-
litical services rendered and can see
no farther, They are blind to the fact
that the public have rights too-rights
of much greater importance than any
Individual little claims that may be
urged. They forget that public men
are but servants properly accountable
to their masters for their stewardship.
LITTLE Improvement is to be hoped for
when the servants undertake to run
the household in their own interest IN
stead of with view to beneht those
who placed them in charge.
The right of the public in this IN
stance Is to have existing laws ana
ordinances carried out impartially IN
their letter and spirit. That IL

or appointed, and paid for. 10
intimate that public sentiment
in this city is in favor or the
Sunday saloon, the dens of the dem,-
monde and the haunts of the profess

who for years have been struggling
for n clean administration ana the

tain voice for the establishment OF
good city government. All that Is
needed now Is that this voice De

Some OF them carry the microbe theory
so far as to insist that there is danger
in receiving money except after fumi-
cation; numerous deadly bacilli are
associated with even the soundest
monetary system.
a great deal OF this Is the veriest
rubbish, yet plenty of timid people be-
lieve every bit of 1t. In the perplexing
situation in which such people find
themselves II ought to be a comfort to
know that Tesla, the electrical
genius. has succeeded in inventing n
microbe killer, with which, when its
possessors have become as familiar as
they are with the rife and wolf trap,
the dangers of eating. drinking, sleep
ing and shaking hands may at least
be minimized. The small monsters
win by it be exterminated or driven
back to their own haunts, as are the
beasts of the forests at the present
time.

McKnNNA's NEW PLACE.

The nomination Of Judge McKenna to
Court of the United States. vice Justice
Field, resigned, was made by President
Mckinley to the Senate yesterday; and
in view of the protests and other things
uttered against the new appointee, 1t is
safe to reckon that n lively debate will
be had over his confirmation when the
august Senate comes to vote upon it
after the holiday recess. 1t is init
mated that a leading reason for the
hostility arrayed against Judge McKen-
ma is that he Is a Roman Catholic,
fact which OF itself is enough to move
the A. p. a. organization to its center.
But this hardly explains the eNtraor-
binary opposition coming from the Pa
cfc slope where not only Judges who
the legal fraternity to great extent
have placed themselves positively on
record in formal protest against the
nomination. Surely there must have
been welGhty motives that could cause
bench and bar to take Il course so
startling with reference to an official
already occupying the exalted place of
attorney general On the other hand
there must have been on the Presidents
part implicit confidence in Judge Nc
Kennas integrity and ability or he
would not have dared to give him pro-
motion In face of the opposition. on
the whole there is little reason to APP
preheud that the Sanate's action will
be other than favorable-though 1t is
quite likely there will be some warm
speeches on the opposing side.

The experiments made to convert
silver into gold may have failed, but
1t Is asserted that success has been
achieved in the direction of changing
soft coal into hard, and that may prac-
tically amount to the same thing. 1t
is claimed that from one ton of soft
coal 1900 pounds of the finest hard
coal, 800 pounds of tar. and from 5000
to 1000 feet of gas. besides ammonia,
etc, can be obtained which 1t would
pay those invested in plant to save.
But this Is not all. The inventor
claims that from one quart of garbage
he obtained both hard coal, some tar.
and u sufficient amount of illuminat-
ing gas to burn over two hours from
an ordinary gas jet. That invention is
surely an important one If not merely
q dream.
