Friend Clarence - Your tele-
gram of the 21st received this
morning, but owing to the fact
that the senate was not in ses-

Pettigrew until Z p. m, and
then went to his house. Showed
him your dispatch and he in
formed me that he had received

swer would do for both. He
told me to say 10 you and the
people interested that the
treaty would not and could not
be considered this session, and
he would not report it from the
committee for the reason that
the house could not do anything
with it owing to there being no

,joyed by the Chinese OF California.
1t is for this reason that they did
not need to derive any right Of
transit from one port OF United
States territory to another, or trans
fer OF domicile, from the annexation
treaty.
When the sovereignty OF the
United States is extended over Ha-
waii, the supreme law OF the land
goes with it, and carries to the Ha-
waiian coolie the rights bestowed
upon the subjects Of the most favor
ed nations, excepting alone the
right of naturalization.
Only few days since, our con-
temporary was pointing with alarm
to the flood OF Chinese laborers into
the United States under this treaty
of 1894, and declared that their
coming cannot be prevented. If it
knew what it talked about it will
observe that the annexation treaty
forbids Chinese immigration to Ha-
waii, except under such conditions as
are now or may hereafter be allo,osd by
the laaos of the United States.
Therefore the treat OF 1894, being,
as it contends, the supreme law of
the land, its extension to Hawaii
carries such opening to Chinese i'm
migration as may now be allowed
by it and the laws of the United
States, and our contemporary re-
Gently insisted that this opening is
wide open.
The foregoing analysis OF the an
nexation treaty OF 1894 is our au-
thority for affirming that annexation
of HaN ali gives the freedom of the
the United States to the $4,000
coolies domiciled there, and if there
be a flaw liz our reasoning we will
be glad to have it pointed out

Our Claim on Hawaii.

Senator Morgan has exploited at
Honolulu his vocabulary for the
benefit Of the natives who carefully
abstained from the Intoxicating
pleasure Of listening to him.
He took the high ground that
America discovered Hawaii morally
and having extended Christian civil
ization to the islands acquired to
the right to annex them.
According to this we discover
morally every country to which we
send Christian missionaries, and
every country accepts our offer of
Christian civilization under penalty
OF immediate annexation "without
consulting the natives."-S. +. Call.

Hawaiian Annexation.

According to Senator Lodge, Ha-
wall is to be annexed by trick and
device.
The constitution provides that
the treaty of annexation must be
ratified by two. thirds of the Senate
before it can become effective. But
Sen ator Lodge suggests that if seri-
Gus opposition arises the job can be
accomplished by passing joint re
solution, already pending, which re-
quires only a majority vote.
That is to say, the jobbers and
spectators who want to annex
leprosy, ignorance and depravity
propose to set aside the constitution
itself in order to do it.
Why should there be even a mai
GRITTY in Congress willing to aid this
iuiquity2 -New York World.

always desire to have settled definitely
and strictly in accordance with facts. If
