THE PACIFIC
THE MEASLES.

Measles is undoubtedly spreading in
the town, but there is no cause for
alarm. If can be clearly traced TO the
troops that arrived here on June End
on the Australia and other vessels.
About fourteen cases at that time were
taken TO the quarantine station, and
isolated. From these men, the disease
was communicated to persons on the
transports. These persons in the early
stages of the disease, and before it
become apparent, and when it is es-
pecially contagious, visited the grounds
of the Executive Building, and un-
douDLedly communicated it TO people
residing here. From these came the
first crop of the disease. Those taking
the disease on the Executive grounds,
and elsewhere, communicated 1t 10
others, and from these comes a second
crop. A careful calculation of the
course of the disease shows very clear
~ that it's existence here is due to the
men who were exposed to it, while on
the transport Australia, from which
the measles cases were taken to the
quarantine
While a case of the disease appeared
on one of the last transports and was
taken to the Red Cross hospital, be-
fore the disease definitely appeared
it is very evident that the disease had
a foot hold here before that case was
brought to the Red Cross hospital.
Sufficient time has not yet elapsed
for the disease to develop through the
case at the Red Cross hospital, and as
it has developed in several quarters,
it is evident that it is due to the cases
appearing on the first transports that
arrived on June 2nd.

THE JOINT RESOLUTION.

If these Islands should be annexed
to the United States by joint resolu~
ton, will it be necessary for the Ha-
waiian Legislature to act upon it, or
confirm it?
Probably not, although formal act
of acceptance would apparently per-
feet the legal transfer.
Annexation is a matter of contract.
The Hawaiian Government agrees to
transfer the Islands to the United
States, and the latter country agrees
to take them, provided the Senate con-
sents to it, subject to certain specified
conditions. The Senate has not acted.
The contract in that form is still
pending. Congress, however, as a
body, and without reference to the
form and method of executing this
contract, makes a new contract in form
only by joint resolution. It's substance
is the same as that contained in the
contract by treaty. 1t carries out, or
executes the meaning and intent of
the contracting parties, and it holds
that the assent by Hawaii, contained
in the contract by treaty, equally APP
plies to the new form of contract by
Joint resolution.
1t is not necessary that contract
should be in writing 1t is, with some
exceptions, valid if it is only oral. The
writings containing it's terms are only
the evidences of the intent and under
standing of the parties to it.
The Hawaiian Government has, I'M
der it's constitutional authority, trans
ferred the Islands to the United States
An acceptance, in the form of specific
action by the Senate has not been
made. But AN acceptance by another,
and, it is assumed, equally valid cOnsti-
tutional method has probably been
made. The intent of the contracting
parties is executed. An immediate Oc-
cupation of the Islands, by the United
States, without opposition, would be a
confirmation in fact by both parties.
The only difference between the rati-
fication of the treaty and the joint re-
solution, is one of form.
A question that could be raised as
TO the absolute legality VI inc CIduSISI
by joint resolution is, on the American
side, whether the Constitution Of the
United States prohibits this form of
transfer, but permits it in the form of
annexation by treaty,
If the joint resolution has passed |
the Senate, or does hereafter, and it is
followed by immediate occupation, the |
Supreme Court of the United States |
will do in the case, as it has often in |
other political cases, when called upon !
to decide them, simply recognize the
will of the people, and the necessi-
ties of the case.
So far as the Islands are concerned |
the intent and assent of the Govern
ment, contained in the treaty will
operate upon the joint resolution, and
make a good title in the United States.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-07-02

A singular omission in the treaty
of annexation, and in the joint reso-
luton, is that of not providing for the
collection of the internal revenues i'm
posed by the United States laws
For instance, the War Revenue law
provides for a tax on Iegacfes. It is
now in force throughout the States
and Territories. If we are at present
annexed is it not in force here? No
thing is said about it. either in the
treaty or in the joint resolution. The

Lonely Place.


Plainfia cid, \. j., Feb. ELK. Police

from DIR. Coles private asylum here, was
found dead tonight in the woods, less
than mile from the sanitarium The

The discovery was made by Charles Far

direction, The place where the body was
found Is IL lonely part OF the woods near
