What That Protest Signifies.


Opponents of Hawaiian annexation are
making much capital out of a protest pre-
scented in the United States Senate by
Senator Hoar the other day. purporting
to be signed by over 10000 native citizens
of Hawaii-in exact numbers, 2l.269. On
it's face this looked rather formidable. for
waiians opposed annexation. By the CEN
sus of 1890. out of a total population of
Sc. 800 in the islands 81. 436 were returned as
pure Hawaiians and 6lS6 halfbreeds, MAX
ing in round numbers 1000 of the aborig-
inal race. 1t Is we'll known, however.
how easily signatures to such documents
are obtained. even among people far more
advanced in intelligence and more care
full of attaching their names to papers.
The average Hawaiian is a simple. ignor-
ant and childlike person and easily infiu-
enced. 1t would probably be found on
examining the remonStrance that many.
perhaps most, of the names were not
signed by the persons who bore them, for
the simple reason that these persons are
unable to write. A string of such names,
no matter how long, cannot carry much
weight in question requiring under
standing and judgment But to scrape
together these 2l0O0 names 1t appears
that all was fish that came to the nets of
the circulators of the protest. They did
not confne themselves to the electorate,
but canvassed the non-voting population,
the women and children. That must be
so, for there are only 10000 or 900 quail
flied Hawaiian voters in all. Hence If
the names Of everyone Of these had been

Undoubtedly the condition of civil
service reform is not altogether what
even the conservative friends of the
law would like. 1t will be remembered
that President Mckinley saw oppor-
tunity fer correction and did not hest
tate to take steps to improve on the
faults he found. If the true friends of
the law can amend it in some respects
the result would probably be advan-
tageous to the reform. But if the
amending CT it is to be in the hands
OF those who applaud the sentiment
advanced by some Of those who now
advocate amending. that Tammaay
Hall in it's recent success demonstrated
the fallacy of civil service reform, then
we should much prefer to leave the
matter in President McKinley's hands,
where there is every reason to believe
it will neither do injury nor receive
any.

the Pacific ocean containing harbor
and facilities for the coaling and naval
station. which naval and military
authoriy les all agree is necessary to
our welfare. 1t is the same fear many
entertained Of the mixed population of
Louisiana. although we believe there
really is less ground for it now than
there was ninety-five years ago. We
fail to see any great injury likely to
result from a territory with more
civilized, Americanized population
than New Mexico possesses, or from
the $4,000 pure blood Hawaiians re-
manning from the three or four hun
bred thousand discovered in full pos
session of the land 12O years ago.
Assuredly the fact that q 900 of those
now demonstrate against the logical
completion of programme recognized
by our government fer more than half
a century ought to shock no ones re-
gard for American institutions or SYM
pathetic sensibilities. Much less should
it deter us from taking that which is
essential to our welfare and future de-
velopment as a naval and commercial
power in the Pacific.
