DO WE WANT HAWAII?
House Foreign Affairs Committee Presents Re
port Favcring Annexation.

Washington, May 17.-Chairman Hit,
today, presented the majority report OF
the House committee on foreign affairs in
favor of the annexation of Hawaii by
Jolnt resolution. 1t states that the prop
oSition is not new to either government.
for 30 years it has been apparent that SO
small and feeble a government must be
merged with a stronger power.
The report states: There is no undue
pressure on the part of the United States
as a greater power, no surprise of any
one no possibility of objection by other
governments. 1t is simply the obvious
result of the natural course of events
through long period of years. thus com
pleted with the cordial consent of tho
sovereign powers of both governments
The only question involved is whether the
proposed possession OF the Hawaiian
| islands would be advantageous to tn,
United States.''
! The minority report on the Hawaiian
| annexation resolution. signed by Messrs
Dinsmore. Clark, Williams and Howard
of the committee. sets out eight reason,
against annexation AMI offers a substitut,
resolution practically establishing a pro
| tcctorate over the islands.

The Younn Recruit.

Judge Falligant can tell war story
better than any living man. Here is a
pathetic one in his own words:
while at home recruiting his command
in men and horses. an old farmer friend
came TO gallant Colonel BIZ Deloney
and said: '"Bill, my boy here has got
the war fever. His mother and | have
tried to get it out OF him. but it's no use,
He sWearS he'll run away if | don't let
him go. so I've mounted him on the best
racing colt / had, ana here he is. Take
him with YOU, but We this much to say:
II he ever shows the dominicker kill him
right then and there: don't let him come
home The OH farmer raised game
chickens and fought them. too. He had
a contempt for dominicker roosters. be-
cause he didn't think they would fight
and that was his blunt way of deScrib-
ing Il coward. Deloney turned and saw a
fair-haired country lad of seventeen
standing perfectly erect. his lips COM
pressed. but a vivid fire flashing from his
Steel-blue eyes. The boy never said IA
word. but parted tenderly from the old
man and went to Virginia to join the
cavalry.
"Delcney watched with pride the rapid
Improvement of the young recruit but
had forgotten the incident until the great
cavalry fight at Brandy Station. When
squadrons We're charging and counter
charging with the intrepid clash and dash
of the Light Brigade. Pierce Young sud

his command. Deloney far in advance,
was sweeping down upon the foe, but be-
fore he was within hundred feet of the
enemy something went by him like cy-
clones breath: the Georgia boy was
standing on tiptoe in his stirrups, bare
headed. his golden hair streaming, with
sabre high in air. and as he passed. with
the light of battle in his face. and eyes
flashing defiance, he turned in his saddle
and shouted, Colonel, here's your DOM

a moment more. and he struck the
eneulv's line like Il cannon shot, his sa
bre flushing on every hand, until he WAS
literally hacked down by the startled foe

looked for him, and there he lay in the
calm of death, his boyish face alorfed
with the diving thought: They'll tell pa
