INTERNATIONAL COMPLICATIONS
Threatened as Result of the Hawaiian
Proposition and the IsthmiaD Canal.

Threatened as "a Result of the Hawaiian
Proposition and the IsthmiaD Canal
Washington, July 2S.-Public men in
Washington were generally surprised
when the announcement was made il
the cable dispatches a few days since
that the question of the Clayton-Bul
wer treaty had been raised in the Brit
ish parliament in connection with. the
proposal to annex the Hawaiian ISL
ands TO the United States, and also were
consequently prepared for the response
OF the British gOvernmnt that the one
question was not involved in the other.
The matter is regarded here with all the
greatest interest because both
subjects. the validity of the
treaty. and the annexation of
Hawaii. are under consideration By
the American Congress and both in all
probability viii receive attention during
the next session. The Senate Commit
tee on Foreign Relations. which has al
ready reported upon the annexation
treaty. has undertaken an investigation
of the present status of the Clayton

TORS Of the members OF the sub-com-
mittee having The question in charge
is that a report will be made favorable
TO the abrOgatiOr of the treaty. IL is
understood that a majority Of the men,
hers of the FcOmLittee consider that
England has by repeated acts in Cen
trail America Lullifed the treaty. There
is also a large element in the Senate
which regards the treaty as obnoxious
90 the Monroe doctrine. Others look
upon il as liable in an indirect way TO
have. through its reference to the Mic
aragua canal. bearing upon the Ha-
waiian question. Those of this class
do not admit that there is the remOtest
reference to Hawaii in the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, but they claim that Ha-
vail 9rd the proposed iSthmi0n canal
to which the treaty has especial refer
ence. are so closely related as TO render
the future bearing Of this treaty upon
the Hawaiian problem matter OF in
terest. II is understood that the COM
mittee VIII he prepared TO report soon
after the converting of Congress next
December. One of the points of doubt
on the part of the committee is how
the treaty is regarded by the British
government Il appears that while
England has generally acted in Central
American affairs as she would have
been expected to act if there had bee
no treaty. the English authorities hay
never given expression 70 any Off,
sentiment as to the continued effect

LET Us FIGHT FIRST.

With Il disposition less inclined 10 GO
off half-cocked there would not be so
much wild shooting upon the part OF
the American press and pulpit. No
sooner had it been announced that Mr..
Olney had succeeded in his diplomatic
ambition Of persuading Great Britain
into agreeing TO an arbitration treaty.
whereby all difficulties between the two
countries were hereafter TO be settled,
than L. Dewitt Talmage demanded its
immediate ratification. His demand
was in the name of the church and
of Christianity, and was followed up
10y many pulpits and endorsed by many
papers. The Eagle, for one. could not
see why that treaty was anything more
than bar in contravention of the Mon
roe doctrine and all that was held I'M
der Ii. The senate was expected 10 rat
fly il Immediately. But it didn't. All
Of the really great men Of The United
States senate. it is held are either dead
or retired. but there are n few left who
can at least pass for smartneSS. And
so the great triumph of the close Of the
nineteenth century was held up and in
the end Will probably be hung up.
There is no longer any question IS to
England having got the best of Mr..
Olney. Sir Julian Pauncefote. or some

1T Is A SIGN

Ten years ago it would have been i'm
possible to muster a sufficient number
of members in the Kansas legislature
favoring resubmission TO force vote.
A proposition to reSubmit to the people
the prohibitory amendment was report
ed favorably from the committee of the
whole house. and on a roll call was lost
GO to 81. While a two-thirds majority
is necessary TO the submission of any
proposed amendment to the people, the
incident of that vote indicates the trend
of events The decisive point IN every
political office holders life is where he
fears the result of his action with the
people more than to the boss. A great
many of those who voted for resubmls-
sion trembled under the threats OF the
ccterie chosen by the Prohibitionists to
browbeat the legislature, but these
members did not dare vote against re-
submission because Of their home con-
sfituents. Like ducks in a hall storm,
they have lodged the clubs of the State
Temperance association quite success
fully for a good while, but sixty-one OF
them were compelled to face the music.
Numbers of the other sixty-two wi
have to explain their action TO their con-
stituents as best they can. What would
be the result. of such resubmission can
only be guessed at. The longer 1t is put
off the greater will be the chances that
the ST. John amendment will go down
and under. There are thousands of con-
scientious teetotalers who sincerely be-
lieved a few years ago that statutory
prohibition meant temperance who now
know it to be not only Intellectual but
demoralizing in many directions. In
temperance is bad. but the corruption
of the public conscience. bribery of pub
lie officials. perjury in open court, hood
ling, and the like, all Of which have
grown out of prohibition, are crimes
more to be deplored.

It has become possible to hang a rich

souri, for stringing up a millionaire muir
derer. His money put off the day Of his
execution long time, for three years
or more, but at last his worthless neck
stretched hemp. He broke down and
cried like any other coward, which
weakened the sheriff but it didn't affect

know that there are courts which can

Gated man, but his act was awfully

of the United States has too much sense
10 agree to treaty whose principal
point, when sifted out, is that the King
of Sweden is left the guardian of Amer
lean interests. The United States SEN
ate dropped the king kink to the treaty
and in doing so practically knocked the
bottom out of the whole thing. England
takes no farther interest in the treaty
with the power to dominate the situ-
alton left out. King Oscar is mad, red
hot. His honor has been touched, and
his hereditary pride very much hurt.
Admitting it all, who cares? Surely no
one, Or no power interested in the Mon
roe doctrine cares one way or the other
for the feelings Of Mr.. Salisburys little
crowned tool The British press holds
that with the king as an arbiter left out

them. With the king left in it was a
sham for Americans.
