WE wonder every time Washington's
birthday recurs why it is that an old
custom has been abolished-that of the
college boys singing at the top of the
middle" building. 1t was a custom
in vogue many years ago, and the peo-
pie of the town used to watch for the
event.
The display OF flags was not of es-
pecially large dimensions throughout
the city, either on public or private
buildings.

IT is practically conceded that as
soon as the report is made by the Com
mission appointed to investigate the
Maine disaster this government will
acknowledge the belligerency of the
Cuban rebels. When that is done the
Cuban war will have reached the be-
ginning of the end. With plenty Of
guns and moral support the long-suf-
fering patriots of the little island will
soon drive the army of Spain into the
sea.

THE QUESTION OF HAWAII.


The attention OF the American pub
lie for the time being has been drawn
away from the proposed annexation of
Hawaii. but now and then voice is
still heard in favor of that step by the
United States. The Chicago Times
Herald OF Saturday, May I, presents
the following argument:
THE annexation of Hawaii, however,
presents no issue that has not been
exhaustlvely discussed. The little re-
public has signified its desire TO come
under the American flag at the earliest
possible moment Her people have
left no room for doubt as to their
hearty approval of every proposition
shat contemplates the permanent ac-
qulrement Of the Islands by this gov
ernment. They are ours without money
or naval conquest
THAT great commercial and naval
advantage would accrue to US through
annexation has now been practically
conceded by nearly everyone who has
given the question Intelligent consider
alton. The present hostilitles with
Spain should leave no doubt as to the
wisdom OF annexation. While we al
ready enjoy coallng privileges In Pearl
harbor, 1t must be borne in mind that
conflict between any of the powers
on the sea is liable at any time to dis

from Admiral Dewey. Here Is the story
THE credulltv of human kind was
also strikingly illustrated at the capitol
today when II was announced by Gen.
Hawley In the Senate committee ON
military affairs and by Col. Steele in the
House committee that Admiral Deweys
report had been received in cipher and
was Mt that moment being translated
at the navy department. Part OF II had
already reached the Pesidents hands.

In order that he might give the matter

Steele until he went over to the Sem
ate to see Mr.. Fairbanks, from whom |
he had obtained the Information.
MIR. Fairbanks said that he did not |
get 1t from the President direct but |
through Mr.. Hanna, who knew all about |
It, Mr. Hanna being found explained |
that he had not seen the President this |
morning. although he had heard the re-
port, and believed 1t to be true, for his
authority was no less a person than
Vice President Hobart. BY that time
everybody in the capitol had the infor-
nation. There was no doubt about It, |
II was bulletined to Wall street and to
every commercial exchange throughout
the country, and special kilograms, with
explanatory comments, were sent to
every evening newspaper. but when
the searchers after truth got an oppor-
tunity TO call the Vice President out
of the chair they discovered that he
had not seen the President this morn
ing. and had only repeated to Mr.
Hanna what he had learned from the
boy.
AT last the fountain head was
reached. The elevator boy, being put
through course OF questlonin' ex-
planned that he had not heard anything
on the subject from the White House
or from any other source, but remem-
bered having remarked to the Vice
President as the latter went up in his

UNCLE SANS ALLY.

Between Cuba and Porto Rico sew
enty miles from the former island and
sixty miles from the latter, is the
island of Haiti, or San Domingo. 1t was
discovered by Columbus in l492. the day
after he left Cuba, and had at that
time two million inhabitants. 1t took
the Spaniards only thirty years to al
most annihllate this race. Later the
island came Into French possession and
then after varied experiences pro-
claimed its independence. but the peo-
pie divided and established two re-
publics, the Haitien In the western por-
ton of the island. and San Domingo
in the eastern.
The Haitien republic has n remarka-
bic treaty with the United States,
which may find some application dur
Ing the struggle that seems to be I'm
minent of Porto Rico. The treaty pro-
vides:
~'Whenever the citizens OF either of the
contracting parties shall be forced to
seek refuge or asylums In the rivers,
ports or dominions of the other, with
their vessels. whether merchant or war.
through stress OF weather, pursuit OF
pirates or enemies. or want of pro-
visions or water. they shall be treated
with humanity, giving to them all favor
and protection for repairing their ves-
sells and placing themselves in Il condi-
tlon to continue their voyage without
obstacle or hindrance of any kind.
And the provisions of this article
shall apply to privateers or private
vessels of war, as well as public. until
the two high contracting parties may
relnquish that mode OF warfare, In
consideration OF the general relinquish-
ment of the right of capture of private
property upon the high seas
This amounts almost to defensive
alliance, and gives the United States
the advantage of harbor facilities In
the immediate vicinity of the scene OF
notion
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1898-05-09

turb these privileges, for the reason
that we do not possess the islands.
From n naval standpoint the argu-
ment In favor Of annexation has never
been successfully assailed. The STRAIT
egic advantages guaranteed by Amer
lean control OF the Islands are now too
apparent to be ignored. The practical
enjoyment of these advantages under
the recent offer Of coal and other war
supplies by the Hawaiian government
If accepted, Will doubtless prove an OBJ
ject lesson powerful enough to crush
the opposition to annexation which has
asserted itself for year or more In the
upper branch of Congress.

made to secure the adoption Of the Ha-
wailan annexation treaty early next
week. II this falls a Joint RESOLUTION

BOYS IN CAMP.

Whether the boys who have voun-
teered be called into actual service
on the battlefield or not. their expert
ence In the various camps throughout
the country will in some respects be
one of inestlmable value to them.
Military discipline. which means reg
ularity. plenty of exercise and IA ra-
tional diet. will result In better physic>
nj health, tougher fibre and stronger
muscle. Plenty of labor and hard
bed are In most instances more bene-
fetal than n soft job and plenty OF
the modern comforts of life.
Life In camps and barracks, however,
has It's drawbacks as well as advant-
ages. To many young men 1t will
present temptations of new and often
alluring kind. The boys need to re-
member that never before In their
lives were they under greater necessity
to, heed the counsels given them
by loving parents or teachers. so as
not to fall into the snares set for the
destruction of the thoughtless. In
years gone by nm idea was prevalent
that soldiers and sailors necessarily
had to be a tough set. That is not
true. The best soldiers and the best
sailors have been those who brought
with them In the field and on the wide
expanse the strong. clean, moral char
acter which Is characteristic OF the
true gentleman.

BREAD RIOTS.

Several months ago Mr.. Letter pre-
dicted bread riots in Europe, but at
the time no one took much stock in the
representation. The information he
had has proved correct, however, and
today the world is startled with the
news from Italy and Spain. where the
people have risen in rage against the
authorities on account of the scarcity
OF bread. In one city In Italy. Milan,
the seriousness of the situation can
be understood from the fact that a
street battle occurred In which 400 peo-
pie were killed and 1000 wounded which
means that the result was more dis.
astrous than the battle of Manila,
where the most terrible modern engines
of destruction were employed: and
yet the Italian mob fought chiefly
with cobblestones and tiles from the
roofs of the houses, and compelled the
soldiers to retreat repeatedly.
Italy and Spain are not the only
countries where there are signs of n
scarcity of food. In the German
Reichstag there was an agitation for
the removal of the import duty on
cereals, and Russia Is said to contem-
plate the prohibition of grain exports.
The French, Spanish and Italian gov
ernments have removed the imnor,
duties, a sure indication that those
countries are much in need of cheaper
and more abundant bread. II ia ner.
fectly clear that the war is NOT respon.
sible for the situation. The fact ia
simply this that Europe Mt present
is suffering from a shortage I'm the
wheat supply and has to look to the
Omitted States for food, as the world
anciently went to Egypt whenever the
crops proved n partial or total failure.
A special wheat investigation instI-
tuted by the agricultural department
at the close of 1897 discloses some in
teresting figures. The total production
of wheat for the year was $40. lie l6s
bushels. and the average price In all
the states for the year was sos cents.
