The Logic of the Situation.


The situation of Hawaii Is peculiar. vet

Standing alone in the midst of an ocean
eXpanse, Hawaii Is at the mercy of any
powerful and aggressive navy. 1t may
be at any time involved in trouble as Hayti
Is with Germany at present. Any greedy
and powerful European nation may take
possession of it whenever it can find a pre-
text for doing SO. 1t must seek an alliance
with some power whose interests are iden-

self great insular power. Is reaching out
for new footholds. England is ever ready
to hoist its flag wherever there is room to
drive stake. Under such circumstances
can we fail to recognize the wisdom of the
policy of accepting the offer of Hawaii,
or shall We leave it to be accepted by some
power that has a broader type of states
men?
With Hawaii as a territory of the United
States, 1t would be secure from interference
or trespass. The prestige of this nation
would amply defend the island domain
without a naval establishment. 1t would
be source of strength to us commercially
and politically. The group naturally be-
longs to the western world. The people
who manage it's affairs are Americans, a

Two Years More for the Railroads.

The interstate commerce commissioners
nave decided wisely in extending for ONLY
two years the period within which the
steam railroads of the country must equip
their freight cars with safety appliances.
Inc roads asked for five years. an unreal
sonable and unnecessary length of addi-
tional time. This would have given them
in connection with the original allowance
nearly ten years in which to change the
httlngs OF their freight cars, a term out of
all logical relationship to the mechanical
ana financial limitations upon the COM
panies. Meanwhile men are being killed by
the hundreds yearly solely through the lack
OF alr-brakes, automatic couplers and grab
irons. The commissioners were confronted
with the fact that the roads had failed to
equip properly fully sixty per cent of their
cars, and 1t was a question whether the
pest interests of the employees would be pro-
tected better by an absolute refusal 10 ex-
tend the time or by the grant of a reason
able extension. The former course would
lead to the institution of many embarrass-
ing suits In the courts and might also cause
an onslaught on Congress to securea repeal
OF the safety-appliance law. short ex-
tension OF the time such as will be granted
will PROBABLY bring about the desired re-
suits with less friction than if the matter
had TO be taken to court. To the end that
the roads may feel the pressure Of the
statutory necessities at all times 1t is wise
ly proposed to require them to make period
zeal reports of the progress in equipment.
1t is to be hoped that no more pleas for
further time will be needful
