The twinkler in part OF its leader
Of Dec. %, says: "If the govern
ment of this country was in the
hands OF the Hawaians they could
outvote the foreigners whenever
they wished, but their leaders pre-
ferred to play the baby act aud
whine in foreign country rather
than face the situation here like
men. 1t is the easiest thing in the
world to appeal to sentimentaism
1t is this weak side OF human nature
which is and has been attacked by
every irresponsible rascal the world
over" How in the name OF com
mon sense, can the Star expect the
Hawaians or their friends to join
hands with gang Of usurpers who
have thrown honor and character to
the winds, and shown by their acts
on narrow scale, to be the heller

Wrong Not The Hawalians

Before Hawaiian annexation is
carried through some awkward
questions will have TO be answered
or lodged. For example, what are
we to say about the bedrock Amer
lean principle that Governments
derive their just powers from the
consent of the governedw If the
question of transferring Hawaii to
another power is submitted to fair
vote by the natives of Hawaii it will
be defeated by a large majority.
Probably it will not be submitted to
popular vote. Senator Morgan
thinks that formality would be un-
necessary. But see to what taunts
and reproaches such a course would
expose the Republican party, which
spent the best years of its existence
in fighting for human freedom and
the right of weak and more or less
colored race to equal political
rights. Already one hears that
Senator Morgan naturally thinks it
a small matter to ignore the rights
of an inferior race, because be be-
longs to class who are in Office by
virtue OF suppressing the votes of
black men and also of such whites
as do not vote their ticket" But
what answer can republicans make
to searching questions on this point2
Perhaps the best they can say is
that having acquiesced in the sup
preston OF the votes Of a colored
minority at home, it requires no
great stretch OF conscience to con-
sent to a similar wrong in distant
Hawaii But the curse OF such
wrongdoing is that it reacts on the
perpetrators Buffalo, N, Y. CONNER

James Bryce on Hawaiian Aunexa-
ton

What have the United States to
gain by territorial extension2 No
part OF the earth's surface remain in
which colonies like the British self
governing colonies can be planted.
Tropical dominions would cost
more than they are worth; and they
are occupied by races unfit to re-
ceive American institutions. Pos
sessing on her own continent an
enormous territory OF unequalled
natural resources, and capable of
easily supporting more than twice
its present population, the United
States needs no transmarine domains
in which to expand. One sometimes
hears it said that her mission is to
spread democratic principles. Poly
nesians and Asiatics, Creole Span.
iards and mulattoes are not fit to
receive those principles. Neither
are Negroes fit, as the history of
Hayti and most Of the South Am
erican so-called republics" proves.
The United States has already a
great and splendid mission in build
ing up between the oceans free,
happy, and prosperous nation OF
two hundred millions OF people.
And one of the noblest parts OF her
mission in the world has been to
show to the older peoples and states
an example of abst ention from the
quarrels aud wars and couque SITS
that make up so large and so
lsmentable part OF the annals Of
Europe. Her remote position and
her immense power have, as / have
said, delivered her from that bur
den OF military and naval arma
ments which presses with crushing
weight upon the peoples OF Europe.
1t would be, for her, descent from
what may be called the pedestal of
wise and pacific detachment on
which she now stands, were she to
yield to that earth-hunger which
has been raging among the Euro
pean states, aud to initiate the ag-
gressive methods which some of
them have pursued. The policy OF
creating great ornaments ADD of an
nexing territories beyond the sea
would be, il stranger may venture
to say so, an un-American policy,
and complete departure from the
maxims-approved by long expert
ence--of the illustrious OF the repub-
lic.-Hon. James Bryce in the Decen,-

To Annex Turkey Now.

The Utica IN. W Herald says,
James B Angel, the United States
Minister to Constantinople, has re-
newed our demand for indemnity
because of losses suffered by Ameri-
can missionaries in Armenia. The
porte has continued to meet the de.
mand with the declaration that it is
not responsible for the losses be-
cause they grew out Of revolution
airy movement. Minister Angel in
sists on Turkeys responsibility be-
cause its troops participated in the
outrages. Turkey replies that the
troops were suppressing the revolu
ton and that the missionaries and
their property happened to be in
the way. The chances are that this
kind of discussion will continue for
some time before any indemnity is
forthcoming. A sure: way of get,
ting it doubtless would be that
which Germany has adopted in con-
nectinn with other similar outrages
in China.
