one of the best correspondents in the

lection you suggest. A few hints for
the benefit of us ignorant correspond

these hints and suggestions, that we
are not sending the editor the right
kind of news to please his patrons.
You say YOU are a reader of the
DEMOCRAT. But you are only one in
prehaps a thousand ormore readers of
this paper, and if our writing don't
suit you, how do you know it don't
suit the other nine hundred and
ninty nine readers? And further,
every man should be boss of his own
business editors included-and if the
editor sees fit to publish our items as
he gets them, that is his business and
not mine Or yours; and if he sees fit to
Gull my items and throw cut one half
or even all, it is the editors business
and not yours. AS for my own writ
ing for the DEMOCRAT, am willing to
leave all criticIsing to the editor and |
let him publish it as whole or part |
as he sees fit. [ notice the DEMOCRAT
has number of correspondents from
ali over the county, and as far as [ |
know they are all young folks and
fond of fun. and if they can have a
little sport of a harmless nature among
themselves, and mauy young people
who read the DEMOCRAT every week

in your letter it is yours. but I think

Tacoma, (Wash.), September
2S.-In an interview tonight,
Senator John l.. Wilson said
there would be no contest in the
Senate over the annexation of Ha-
wall; the only question that would
arise would be over the matter of
government and that a plan had
already been preached by several
Senators which it was thought
would meet all requirements.
1t would be a Territorial form
with the two houses; the upper
house and the Governor to be ap-
pointed and the lower house to be
elective. The Governor will be
from this country and nominated
by the President subject to the
approval of the Senate. The up
per house will be appointed from
the islands and the membership
of the other body will be elected
from the islands.
The National House of Repre-
sentatlves will have nothing to do
with the appointments. Senator
Morgan will lead the debate and
his mission to Hawaii is to gather
data.
