.LOR|N THURSTON|S PLEA
ms BOOK ON THE ANNENNTION
OF HAWAII.
Takes Up the Arguments of the OPP
poneuts of the Plan and Has a Re
ply for Each.

Lorin \. Thurston's handbook on
the annexation of Hawaii came in the
Moana's mail.
The book contains lightweight pa
ges and consists of a statement of the
reasons in favor of annexation: a
brief description of Hawaii, its people.
government, laws. commerce. finances
educational system and resources: an
enumeration of twenty objections that
have been made TO annexation and a
reply to each, and an exhaustive sum-
mary of all the facts relating to the
Islands.
In specifying the reasons for an
neNatiou Mr.. Thurston says: 1T will
prevent the establishment of an alien
and possibly hostile stronghold i'm n
position commanding the Pacific coast
and the commerce of the North Paci-
fic, and definitely and finally secure to
the United States the strategical con-
troll of the North Pacific.
Upon the opening of the Nicara-
qua or Panama canal practically all
of the shipping bound for ASIA maxi
ing use Thereof. will stop at Honolulu
for coal and supplies
Other reasons given by Mr.. Thurs
ton are as follows: "The conditions
are such that the United States must
act now to preserve the results of its
past policy and prevent the dominan-
cy in Hawaii of a foreign people. It
is no longer question of whether Ha-
wall shall be controlled by the native
1Iawaiians or by some foreign power.
but the question is What foreign peo-
pie shall control Hawaii?'"
Under the head of "The Awakening
of Japan" Mr.. Thurston refers to the
heavy japanese immigration to Ha-
wall and adds: "Regardless of the
declarations of the Japanese govern
ment, Hawaii has, against the will and
efforts of its government and its peo-
pie, drifted Japanward during the
past two years, and unless radical ac-
ton is taken to stay the process,
there can be but one logical result,
| viz. the ultimate supremacy of the
japanese. and thereby of Japan in Ila-
wall. This will be accomplished in
/ the teeth of the American policy of
/ exclusion of foreign control and with
| no tangible overt action on the part
of the japanese government.
"rhe controversy with Japan is the
| preliminary skirmish in the great
coming struggle between the civiliza-
ton of the East and the West. The is.
sue in Hawaii is whether in that in
evitabe struggle Asia or America is
to control the naval key of the Paci
fc.' All that is now holding Hawaii
from retrogression into an AsiatJ
outpost is handful of resolute and
determined men. But there is a Inn
