TIE HAWAIIAN QUESTION.

The proposed annexation or acquisition of
Hawaii by the United States attracts the
attention of the civilized world, and the
event, if it occurs, will be one of epoch
making Importance. The Journal said long
ago that manifest destiny pointed to it as
sure to occur when the time was ripe, and
the events of the last few years have great
ly fastened the contamination The time
has come when due regard for American
interests and honor requires that in some
form, either by an annexation, adoption or
establishment of a protectorate, the United
States shall assume control of Hawaii. The
doing so will demonstrate to the world that
there is such a thing as American states
manship and will add greatly to the pres
tige of the United States among civilized
governments. Failure to do so would be
humiliating neglect of a great opportun-
ity and a great duty 1t is not that We
need more territory, for we have an album
dance, with every variety of climate and
resources. Hawaii in itself is not particu-
larly desirable, and it's present population is
still less So But ii we do not annex or as
sumo control of Hawaii there is danger
that some other power will do so to our
great humiliation, embarrassment and per-
haps peril. At present Hawaii is almost
it were, any mans land, liable to be picked
up and appropriated any day or night by
some European Asiatic power. The sit
uation creates an opportunity and a duty
neglect of which by the United States
would be inexcusable and indefensible for
all time. The situation is very different
now from what it was before we acquired
California or Alaska and before the devel-
opment of the Rocky mountain and Pacific
coast States had laid the foundation of an
empire in that direction, and of a great
Pacific ocean traffic. During the last gen.
GRAFTON or two the star of empire has
moved westward at such a rate that Ha-
wall is nearer to San Francisco now than
the California city was to New York fifty
years ago. But, whatever it may be worth
to us either commercially or strategically
the United States could not for a moment
tolerate the idea of its passing under the
control of any other power That is the
condition which now confronts us and
which will grow more imminent and threat
ening unless this government shall take
timely action. What form of government
the islands shall have if annexed how to
absorb or weed out the present hybrid pop
ulatons and how best to Americanize the
islands are questions of detail to be left
for future and leisurely consideration. The
present duty is one of self-assertion and
self-defense on the part of the United
States.

The willy Sultan has caused discord in the
concert Of the powers by appealing to Rus
STA and Germany to stand by him without
reference to the others in holding Thessaly.
He knows that. if the two Emperors ac-
quiesce he can hold Thessaly in spite of
the others. He appeals to Russia because
he has many things that government covets.
He appeals to Germany, or rather to Ger
many's Emperor, because just now he is
likely to be in favor of whatever Great
Britain is against. Turkey desires Thessaly
in order to show it's new born power and
to hsult western Europe, which has been
inclined to regard the Ottoman empire as
an outlaw. The Sultan is6ust now one of
the most prominent and really aggressive
men in Europe

ulations between Hawaii and Japan. That
is not matter for the United States to
consider. Spain ceded the Louisiana terri
tory to France in 1900 on the express stipu-
latien that France should not transfer it
to any other power. In 1903, when France
coded it to the United States, Spain in
sisted that the cession was not valid with
out her consent. The United States took
the position that if such a stipulation ex-
listed it was question between Spain and
France that did not concern this govern
ment, and that view finally prevailed. If
the Hawaiian government chooses to cede
the islands to the United States this gov
eminent has nothing to do with its treaty
stipulations with Japan

Judge Brown rubbed his chin in a per-

said: "Of course. 1t is an old principle of
law that the probator must correspond with

When the British vice consul at Kansas
City called on the Catholic bishop CO.
adjutor there to ask the cooperation of
the church in the local celebration of the
Queens jubilee, the Irish prelate said
There shall be no prayers for Queen Vic
toria in the Catholic churches of Kansas
City, nor of this diocese. l shall not only
order that such prayers be not offered, but
/ shall prohibit them" This looks a little
like carrying politics into religion, but if an
edict should issue from Rome ordering
prayers for the Queen in all Catholic
churches, the Kansas City prelate would
have to yield. The Queen has millions of
Catholic subjects outside of Ireland.

Much dissatisfaction is expressed by many
British papers because of the practical ex-
cluson from the jubilee demonstration of
that industrialism which has been the chief
cause of Great Britain's success. 1t will
be pre-eminently a display of Britain's mill
tary and naval prowess. All parts of the
British empire will contribute to the dis
play of Imperial greatness. 1t will be i'm
pressive, but impressive as was a Roman
triumph. Great Britains real greatness is
in its trade; consequently national display
which fails TO show the progress which
Great Britain has made in that direction
in fifty years is to ignore the causes of her
greatest triumph
