JUST AT HAND.

The annexation movement keeps
getting strength IN the United
States. 1t is now foregone con-
clusion that the islands will be an
nexed whether there is treaty or
not. The sending down of the Ore
gon will show Japan and the rest of
the world that the United States
means to stand no nonsense i'll deal
ing with the question. 1t is veri-
table announcement of paws off "
to the whole world, and the anti
annexationists may whine their ut
most but they have now no one
who will turn anything but deaf
ear to their melancholy little moan.
Should there be the slightest
menace of interference both the
United States Minister and Admir-
al Beardslee are clothed with full
power to take immediate possession
of the islands, land troops and blue
jackets and hoist the Stars and
Stripes.
There is no uncertain tone about
orIers Of this kind. There will be
no going back upon a step so de-
cidedly taken. Everything that is
now done by the Executive is done
with care, but with firm determin-
alton. There is no vacillating,
The islands may be practically re-
gardo d as annexed, the actual act
is merely waiting for questions o,
detail, but the main fact is consun
mated. The nations of the world
now understand that the United

The tariff conference does not
progress as rapidly as was expected.
Up to the latest date the conferees
had only just reached a working
basis. The Senators are naturally
holding out for their amendments,
but in the end they will have to
compromise and give way good
deal. The tendency of legislation
in all countries is to retain the
views OF the younger and more
radical branch and pay less atten-
ton to the views of the older and
more conservative branch. More
and more as time goes on it is the
young men who are in active touch
with all the living interests that
rule. From all indications the con-
ference between the House and
the Senate was not likely to be
concluded much before the 18th or
10Th of this month There is there
fore not much chance of Congress
having adjourned even at the date
of present writing. The tariff mat
ter. has extended more than fort
night longer than was expected.

INVESTIGATE.

There are two Japanese here that
the Government had better look up.
During the japanese controversy
the question whether the passen-
gers who landed were the bona fide
possessors of fifty dollars was the
pivotal point. AS was pointed out
in these columns, the immigrants
had no such sum and this was made
clear when the japanese papers
stated that the return immigrants
were in a destitute condition when
they landed. This they ought not
to have been, for their return pas
sage only cost SIS and they ought
to have landed with $35 head to
the good. Whether the Hawaiian
Government laid stress upon this
point, no one knows, Tor the tenor
of the correspondence is still seal
ed book to the COMMUNICATING.
But there is a case that the Gov
eminent can now very we'll inves-
tigate, which will certainly strength
en- their position very much.
During the circuit court at Homo
kaa, two Japanese were tried who
testified that they were paupers.
Questioned about what had become
of the fifty dollars which they had
when they landed they stated that
after they had landed in Honolulu
they had returned the money to the
agents of the immigration company
who loaned them the money in order
to get ashore. They admitted that
they fully understood that this was
done to defraud the customs author
tiles, and that having done this they
landed on these shores actual pau
pers.
The story comes to the Star from
a very reliable source and it is GER
tainly one which will bear a very
thorough investigation. No one,
who has any inside knowledge Of
the traffic in immigrants, has the
slightest doubt that this system O.
fraud has been practised again ant
again. The difficulty has been tc
get actual proof,
If these men have come in fraud
ulently they should certainly be re
turned to Japan. The Government
here could not wish for better in
stance as an example for strength
ening their case.
In spite of all vaporing and talk
ing of both japanese papers ant
outsiders there is no doubt that thu
Hawaiian case is a strong one
Having a good case already, thi
little piece of evidence will serve t.
strengthen even what was good
The matter is placed before tn
Minister of Foreign Affairs and tn
Acknowledgement and it is to b.
hoped that they will attend to it a
once. No stone should be left I'm
turned to strengthen our position
SO that it should be perfectly i'm
pregnable.

NEW STORIES RETOLD.
A Schilling & Company
san Francisco

Certain members of the Chamber OF
Commerce were discussing the ability
of Germans to drink beer, and one Of
them offered to wager that any leu
ton out of a crowd at work on build
ing near by could drink a gallon of
lager without stopping. The party APP
preached a sturdy-looking stone ma
son, and the sporting man asked:
evil you drink bucketful of beer
if / pay for it?" The mason thought
a minute. "Vell, l drink it if l can.
I don't know, though, if I can. You
wait minute" He disappeared into
Fort street, but returned a mo-
ment later, smiling. "All right" ne
said, 81 vas ready" They went into
an adjoining saloon and the Teuton
drang the gallon of lager without a
wink. Coming back to his mallet AMI
chisel, he said: 81 vas not sure if
could drink pail of beer or not, so
I vent into The Criterion and tried a
glass of Rainer first"
