Hawaiian Annexation.

ton to the United States, of the
Hawaiian Republic and her de-
Tendencies, under territorial form
of government, was signed in dupli-
cate by the officials empowered by
law SO to do, on Wednesday of last
week. Negotiations for such treaty
had been pending for some time, and
upon the completion of the docu-
ment it was by President Mckinley
transmitted to the Senate for ratifi-
cation by that body, accompanied
by a message urging favorable
action thereon. So far as President
Mckinley is concerned the pledge
made by the st. Louis platform
upon the Hawaiian question has
been fully redeemed, and if the pro-
iect of annexation shall now fail the
responsibility for such failure will
rest entirely with the Senate, which
under the constitution is a co-ordi-
nate branch of the treaty-making
power.
The status of this annexation pro-
Jet is now as it was left by President
Harrison's administration four years
and four months ago. Upon the
accession of Cleveland to the Presi-
dency he recalled the former treaty
from the Senate, pigeon-holed the
document, and at once applied HIM
self to the task of re-establishing q
monarchy in Hawaii, but his at
tempt was met by such storm OF
indignation from the liberty-loving
people of America that he was con-
strained to abandon it. In the
meantime, a Republican form OF
government has been founded In
Hawaii at the head of which was
placed a gentleman whose qualities
| as a statesman will compare favor
| ably with those possessed by states
| men of acknowledged ability in the
United States. The japanese
government has made a formal pro-
test against the consummation Of
the treaty and the proposition tc
ratify it will be contested in the
Senate by Democratic Senators who
are imbued with an unaccountable
partiality for the glitter Of royalty
The annexation of Hawaii to the
| United States would be but the
natural sequence of what has beer
practically a protectorate covering
period ofseventy-seven years, during
which the most amicable relations
between the two countri have beer
steadily maintained. The estab
lished government there has mani
tested in the strongest possible
manner its desire for annexation
and there are cogent reasons why
the people of this nation shoulC
desire the acquisition of the islands
under consideration: Japan hai
entered upon a well considered
purpose to possess them, and to thi
it is probable that Great Britain
would object, should the United
States neglect to acquire such terri
tory under the favorable auspices
now presenting themselves. Should
Hawaii fall to Great Britain as
result of not being accepted by TIL
United States when voluntarily
offered, it would be forging tn
last link in a great chain by which
that power would completely sur
round US, and this fact alone is
sufficient reason for annexation
The Senators who vote against tn
ratification of the treaty will prov
recreant 10 their duty as loyal Amer
can citizens, to say nothing of tn
betrayal of great trust reposed i
them.

DR.. and Mrs. Ashley and son Lynn
will leave next week for Lawrence,
Van Buren, county, Mich. Much as
we sym pathize with the doctors idea
in taking the prolonged vacation
which begins with his departure, we
are nevertheless very 10th TO grant the
leave of absence. That discerning
physician, with many patients depend
Ing on his advice and personal treat
ment, should leave his field of profess
sional labor is TO our minds a serious
loss. The fact that DR.. Ashley leaves
DR.. Won Wedelstaedt TO attend his
patients is not altogether satisfactory.
Not because we have the least reason
10 doubt the competency OF DIR. Won
Wedelstaedt-on the contrary his an
tecedents are all to his credit-but be-
cause physicians business Is a person
al matter and DIR. Ashley just fills the
bill. We can perhaps forego the
agreeable society OF Mrs. Ashley and
Lynn for only year may 1t be shortD:
but even at this we are inclined TO
rebel. But TO lose the Doctor, even
for so short a time, is a matter of an
other color, and touches the eOmmun-
lity's dearest interest. namely its
health. However, here's to the
