THE RAPE OF THE ISLANDS.

The Hawaiian Islands have been
formally annexed to the United States,
despite the protest OF the native inhab-
itsnts thereof.
Although the outrage has been con-
summated, the resolutions adopted
and forwarded to President Mckinley
are interesting. and will tend to show
to what extent we are drifting in the
direction of selfish aggran1izement.
Here is the text OF the protest of the
political societies of the island:
Whereas, The Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States
have passed joint resolution for the
annexation of the Hawaiian Islands.
and such joint resolution has not been
passed upon by the people Of Hawaii,
nor by their representative in Legis-
ture assembled and,
"Whereas. By memorial the people
OF Hawaii have protested against the
contamination ofauy invasion Of their
political rights, and have frequently

MORE ABOUT THE MURDER.

1t is inconceivable that a man, white
though he be could have been guilty Of
such diabolical murder as that which
resulted in the "wiping out" Of the life
of JOHN EDWARD JONES. the sixteen
year-old colored boy on Monday, Aug
ust 18TH
The more the matter is investigated
the more heinous becomes the murder.
Here is man. we'll on in years, a white
man who goes by the name of JAMES
l.. PATTERSON, who in the broad day
light at 6:l5 in the morning shot and
killed him.
1t now is developed that young
JONES was no thief. Be was picking
up rags and had gotten together bun
die for the purpose of securing few
pennies with which to buy the necessi-
ties of life.
He had not committed murder. The
only charge which could have been
form ulated against him was that of
trespass, and q nominal fine could
have only oeen placed against him.
But it is plainly evident that PATTER-
SON wanted to kill Negro. He forgot
that this same helpless. unarmed boy
had q soul to save. He was oblivious
of the fact that he had parents who
loved him as fondly as PATrERsoN's
parents loved him.
He cowardlY fired upon a running.

wise able to defend himself.
Could brute be guilty of baser con-
duct2 A strong, sinewy man standing
with revolver in hand shooting down a
fleeing boy.
What could be lower? What action
could be baser? And then he employ
ed counsel. For what? To defend
him in court? Where is there a white
jury man who would give him his Just
deserts?
They may be in this locality, but
rarely indeed do they appear in the
jury-box.
But, thank GoD, there is Judge up
yonderl He looks down upon the Just
and the unjust. He saw bloody, bru-
tai, dendish PATTERSON with ghoulish
glee murder one of his children.
But we draw the curtain.

AGAIN SUFFERING.

The Washington Posr of the2lst inst.
gave evidence of another virulent at
tack OF Negrophobia. 1t gave force to
the truism, "There are none SO blind
as those who will not see. 1t says:
"Ot course we quite expected the
usual jamboree all along the line of
the Negro editors and leaders when we
pointed out, few days ago, the fact
that the colored soldiers had proved a
failure-from our point of view"
From our point of view" is good
1t always is alert and watchful for the
bad, but turns it's back whenever the
deeds of valor of the colored soldiers
are brought to view.
1t continues:
That there are several ways of look
ing at the matter, we have not thought
of denying. We look in our own way,
and reached our own conclusion. We
cheerfully admitted the Negroes quail
ties as fighter, aud we as cheerfully
admitted that, under proper discipline,
he would make very useful soldier
Our complaint against the colored
troops is that they do not respect the
civil law that they constitute an ele-
ment of peril and disorder in any
peaceful community; that officers of
their own color exercise no control ov-
er them, and that generally, they are
turbulent, riotous and offensive when
ever they break out of camp and es-
cape. for so much as an hour. from the
supervision Of their white superiors."
For unmitigsted cheek, this Is unques-
tionably preeminent. As matter OF
fact, all charges of disorder against
colored regiments have been those off,
cered by white men. The very charges
against the colored troops are those
which should have directed against the
white ones.
