Representatives According TO Population.
Prior to the election many persons ia
vored representation according to popula-
tioD, but now it appears that every one Is
satisfied with the slightest possible advance
towards it. The proposition adopted by
the Constitutional Convention is mere
apology towards such IL measure. The
Idea Of giving two Senators and five Rep.
rcsentatives to Wilmington, while New
Castle county, Kent and Sussex are each
10 have five Senators and ten Representa-
tiyes, looks something like a burlesquc.
Even this proposed increase Of members
for this city is condemned by the Sussex
journal aud also the Delawarean, both of
whom fear the lower counties may event
ually lose the power to make laws to gov
ern the State. Weare in the hands Of the
PAilistines, however and will have to sub
init to their DEGREES. Had the leading Re-
publicans have done their duty last au-
tumn, such humiliation would have been
avoided and correct doctrine been cstab.
lished. When the blind undertakes to
iea1 the people, all are very certain to land
in the ditch We should have much
nearer approach to representation, and
failing to do so,make no change whatever.

The hasty action of Germany in fore
ing a claim out of the little republic
of Hayti and the subsequent seizure of
a port in China, has brought down on
her the attention of the world. A New
York paper in discussing Germany's
Progress and Poverty says: "The Ger
man seizure of a part of China is prob
ably the cOnsummation of a long-laid
plan. There is reason to believe that
such action was decided upon some
years ago, to be taken as soon as &
pretext was afforded. The pretext
came in the murder of couple of mis-
sionaries, and the seizure of Kiao-Chau
Immediately followed That the MUIR
ders occurred when they did was a
matter of chance, but the time could
not have been chosen more oppor-
tunely to serve the German Emporer' S
ends. A foreign campaign for the ac-
QUESTION of new empire in China will
give him the greatest possible aid in
getting his Navy bill through the
Reichstag, especially since the muir
dered missionaries whom he is aveng-
ing were Roman Catholics, and it is
the Roman Catholic vote in the Reich
stag that he most needs. 1t will also
serve to divert German attention from
domestic distress and to make the peo-
pie forget their poverty for time in
their enthusiasm for what is termed
the honor of the Fatherland.
Smyrna times., 1897-12-29

Cuba, with its varying news of gov
ernment and insurgent success and
the general wish for the success of the
latter, no more than Hawiian anex-
alton, IS the paramount question of
foreign interest. All eyes are turned
now to China where Germany has al
ready seized port with the apparent
connivance of Russia, while France
seems to be ready to take hand in
the partition of the helpless country.
England it appears, protests against
Russia absorbing Corea, and is fully
supported by Japan, which does not
want the European nations to get DOS
session of China.
If there had been any question of the
policy OF annexing Hawaii, and annex
ing 1t now, says a cotemporary, the
opening grab for place and power on
the Paclflc ought to dispel all doubt.
Inc struggle for the possession or
division of the land and the trade that
front and float on the Pacific has visibIv
begun. The world is to-day diseus-
sing the partition of China. The great
powers of Europe are measuring their
respective share Of the spoils. Ger
many seizes port and sends her IRON
clads to establish and protect her foot
hold. Russia Immediately occupies
Port Arthur and quietly and relent-
lessly moves on to that great absorp-
tion which is the aim of her subtitle
policy. England looks for compen-
sation and France expects the enlarge
ment of her dependency. Japan, filled
with new ambition since her victory
over China, finds herself fcircumscribed
and possibly menaced by this increas-
ing Gordon of European powers, and
compelled to look out 70 sea for more
seztensions.
Smyrna times., 1897-12-29

These movements mean new activity
on the Pacific. They make the great
ocean more than ever a field of empire.
They mean new rivalries, new trade,
new communications, new ambitions.
If the United States were to renounce
the practical control of Hawaii and de-
clare that we had no interest in its fate,
there would be race among the other
powers for its possession. What some
Americans would have us repudiate
even when it is already in our grasp is
a prize that every other nation with
any interest in the Pacific would Gag
erly seize if it could.
We cannot permit any other nation
to take Hawaii. Such an act would be
not only contrary to all our traditions
but would be the height of national
folly. With the new strife for Gomin-
ion on the Pacific we can only prevent
Hawaii from falling into the hands of
some other power by establishing a
protectOrate or by consenting to annex
alton.
