The Los Angeles Journal Favors
the Plan.
Referring to the question of the Unit
ed States anneXing the Hawaiian ISL
ands, the Los Angeles Journal re-
marks:
Now the question comes naturally.
Since the United States will continue
to require the Hawaiian sugar crop
our chief staple products it not to
her interest to hold this country in the
most intimate relations possible? Moth
ing short of prohibitive measures of
protection to the domestic product will
prevent the Hawaiian crop from being
sold in the American market. But with
out any mutual status being main
tanned between the two countries, Ha-
wall will not be bound to buy Ameri-
can products with the proceeds of our
sugar. She may obtain an abundant
revenue from taxing American goods.
If she is not treated by the United
States as an offshoot and outpost of
American civilization, as she undOubt-
eddy is in fact, Hawaii will have to
seek affiliations elsewhere. There is
really no reason to despair that Hawaii
can find another protecting arm if that
of Uncle Sam should, unfortunately,
be withdrawn. Yet it is with no want
of Self-reSpect that every thoughtful
Hawaiian must admit that their loved
cOuntry's repulsion by that great ma
ton. which is it's veritable mother
country, would cause him a, violent
heart wrench. Still, it is doubtful if
the repelling power would not be the
greater loser, comparatively, from the
enforcement of relations than the fee
BILE folk repealed. A neighboring coun-
try to the United States as this is.
buying five or six million dollars worth
of American merchandise every year,
is scarcely to be lightly spurned in its
overtures for closer relations by the
thoughtful American statesmen. 1t is
not only what appears in the tables of
imports to this country, however. that
makes the Hawaiian connection valu-
able to the United States, and empha-
sizes the argument for more intimate
bonds. and these permanent. There is
not section of Americas foreign COM
MERGE that reflects 50 much glory on
the star spangled banner as that of the
Hawaiian trade. 1t represents millions
of dollars of investment in the mercan-
tile marine of the nation. and many
hundreds of thousands of annual ex-
penditure by that fleet in American
ports.

During the heavy rain storm that passed
over this place Wednesday afternoon about
four clock, lightning struck and killed Il
valuable COW belonging to Mr.. George +.

lightning struck post in the fence about the
middle of the field and run along the wire to
where the cows were standing, II distance of
about 300 feet, striking the COW nearest the
fence, killing her instantly.
Mr.. VIM. Rodkey, young man employed
by Mr.. Jesse Lennon, was out i'll the field
blowing when the rain came up, and being
some distance from the buildings took shelter
under large tree with his team. Lightning
struck the tree and frightened the horses so
badly that they got away from him. One
horse fell to his knees but soon recovered
Mr.. Rodkey was also badly shocked by the
stroke.
On Thursday morning when Mr. VIM.
Feeser went out towards the barn lie discov-
cred that one of his COWS was gone, but soon
