\ MORAL DUTY.

The Detroit Evening News sums up
the position of the United States very
forcibly when speaking of the annex
alton of the Islands. 1t points out
that the United States is committed to
the doctrine that any interference with
Hawaii on the part of any other ma
ton would be regarded as an I'M
friendly act. How could the United
States object to the offer, by the Is
lands, to some other power, if she re-
fuses to annex them? And adds:
Can we play dog in the manger?"
But one can go further than this.
The annexation movement on these Is
lands has been fostered by the Unit
ed States. Both openly by the Reel
procity Treaty, whose main object,
from the United States point of view,
was ''closer political relations" and
privately by the encouragement of
some of its foremost men. the cause of
annexation has been urged. The re-
suit of this assistance to or urging OF
the cause has been the present situa-
ton. The United States is morally
bound to annex us. She has practical
ly brought about the situation. She
OF II, wncn Is lJ1h.,1+yt ir-, cub, salutIon
all concerned, is brought about If
the Senators who are hesitating as IN
which way to east their votes, would
consider their moral obligations TO
the people of these Islands they would
very soon cast them for the anneXa-
ton of the group.
This view of the question has been
put forward at times, but has never
been as fully urged by those who work
Tor the cause, as it should have been.
Not only will the United States occu-
Ply the position of the dog i'm the m,ln-
ger, if she refuses to annex the Is
lands, and then prevents the Islands
from seeking help elsewhere, lest they
fall into Asiatic or semi-Asiatic hands.
but the United States by her own pre-
viouS acts is morally bound to give us
annexation, her own policy having
brought about the present condition
of affairs.

ALOHA, PRESIDENT DOLE.

In certain quarters it is the policy
of people, who like to sit on the fence
and watch where there may be soft
place to fall upon on either side, to
rather look coldly upon the visit Of
President Dole to the United States.
AS a fact it is the strongest thing that
the Cabinet has done for some time
past, and it is endorsed by the pro-
gressive thought of the country. 1t
is an incontrovertable fact that when
the younger men of this community
have determined to carry out a policy
they have been invariably successful.
President Dole's visit will show
what Kind of man his party chose
to set at the head of affairs in the
present crisis. His dignity, his wide
knowledge of men and affairs, not on
~ on the Islands. but elsewhere, mis-
judicial mind, in fact the many attri-
butes which have made him salts
factory president here, cannot fail TO
have an influence even in unemo-
tional Washington.
If the Presidents visit was to do any
good, he should 90 now. and not wait.
TO act quickly is to gain a victory.
When the Presidents visit has proved
the success that The Star believes it
will prove, there win he many who
will rush forward to get credit Tor
helping it ON. Those who have been
interested in bringing the matter
about will be quite satisfied with hav-
ing played Il strong move in the game.
The President leaves our shores with
the Aloha and good wishes of every
one who has the prosperity of this
country at heart. Whatever he does
will be well done: of that we may be
assured, and no one will rejoice more
than himself when he has succeeded
in helping forward the great cause of
annexation. and lays down the power
which sought him, and not he it.

KEPT HIS WORD.
Madame Johnstone-B ishep Obliged to
Sing in Helena.

Madame Johnston Bishop Obliged to
Sing in Helena.
The Italian and Mexican opera COM
pany used the same methods in Hell
ena as they did in Butte-advertise
the appearance of Madame tombstone
Bishop. but the result in Helena was
different from that in Butte. The Her.
aid tells about il as follows:
Mrs. Genevra tombstone Bishop was
advertised to sing three songs before
the opera last evening and the audi
ence had been specially requested to
be seated by 8 o'clock, that the lady
might not be interrupted. When s
O'Clock came the audience was in their
seats, but Mrs. Bishop failed to mate
rialize. After half an hour or SO spent
in waiting people began to suspect
some trouble, and their suspicious were
borne out by later developments. 1t
seems that Mrs. Bishop had promised
as late as o'clock in the afternoon to
appear as advertised. although she was
suffering from hoarseness TO some eX-
tent. She sent no word to Mr.. Luke of
having changed her mind, and when
that gentleman inquired as to her nom
appearance he was told that she was
at the hotel After some more ques-
tioning it was developed that Mrs.
Bishop did not intend to appear.
Mr.. Luke then insisted that the an
nouncement should be made from the
stage that the lady was indisposed and
could not sing. but that the price of
admission would be refunded to all
who had come especially to hear her.
This the Del Conte manager refused to
do, and Mr.. Luke thereupon said the
contract must be carried out, and Mrs.
Bishop sang.
When seen by a Herald reporter to-
day Mr.. Luke said that when he made
promises to Helena people he intended
to carry them out. 1t is the local
management that is always blamed in
cases of this kind said Mr.. Luke.
When / make promises TO the theater
going public of Helena. they are going
to be performed or their money will
be refunded

what to do with the final products of

be of the impression that his con-
sumner will convert the smoke into abb
solutely nothing, but should his ap-
paratus fool him and produce some
thing, l should like to suggest to the
honora BILE, the smoke committee. a
scheme that might assist them in their
deliberations. IL the sulphur be con-
verted into sulphuric acid, not many
miles from Butte are found extensive
limestone deposits. Let the sulphuric
acid be conveyed to these by means
of lead pipes or tank cars lined with
lead. The action of the suiphuric acid
on the limestone would result in the
formation of calcium sulphate and car
bonic acid gas. Calcium sulphate is
one of the best known mineral fertil-
izers, and could be sold to residents of
Butte for flower beds and lawns. For
the turning loose into the atmosphere
of so much carbonic acid gas would
make Butte blossom like the rose.
tPlants derive their vitality from the
carbonic acid gas i'm the air.
Butte would then rival the towns of
Missoula and Deer Lodge for the title
of Flower or Garden" City.
Another use to which this sulphuric
acid could be put. and one more prac-
ticabe than the fertilizer scheme.
would be to convey il down our mines
Here it would dissolve the native sill
yer, which is so plentiful in some of the
mines here. forming soluble silver sui
phate which would be pumped to the
surface and the silver deposited by
common salt, most inexpensive oper-
alton
/ hope the smoke committee will give
these two schemes careful considera-
tion in their deliberations.
