THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President McKinley's message deals
in a general way only, with the rela
tions now existing between the Federal
Government and Hawaii. He does not
intimate that he has any knowledge Of
the measures that the Commissioners
will suggest, in their report to Con-
gress for the government of this terri
tory He trusts that Congress will give
earnest consideration" TO the subject
He hopes that Hawaii will be benefit
ted by the change of sovereignty and
the result will justify 1.-The foresight of
those who for three quarters of CEN
fury have looked to the assimilation OF
Hawaii as a natural and inevitable con-
summation in harmony with our needs,
and in fiulfillment of our cherished
traditions This assimilation" has
been living issue in these Islands on
ly since the year 1893. DIR. McGrew, one
OF the very forefathers of annexation,
and the most irrepressible father, IN
season and out of season, may think OF
it with some pride, that less than TWEEN
ty years ago, any one here who shared
in the foresight mentioned by Pres
ident Mckinley and dared TO express 1T
in language was subject to severe cr1tl-
cism. He alone, or nearly alone, had
planted the invisible flag here, and pa
tiently waited for it to materialize. He
may not have had more practical Wis
dom in the matter than others who
were his fellow citizens. But he indulg-

VIM. CASSIE AND DIR. LINDLEY
GOING TO KLONDIKE.
VIII Take Some Islands Boys With
Them-plan to Leave on the Belgic
Next Month.

William Eassie, engineer of Col.
Spalding's plantation on Kauai, has
rendered his resignation to take eff
feet on the first of the month. He
will come direct to Honolulu, xhere
he will make preparations to leave
for San Francisco. Here he will OUT
fit for the Klondike. f-
Mr. Easse hopes to leave the Is
lands on the Belgic, leaving March 49,
He will be accompanied by David
Scott, son of John f. Scott, formerly
deputy inspector general of schools.
They hope to get away from San
Francisco about the middle of May,
and if all goes well get into the Klon-
dixie region by June 2jth. Mr.. Eas-
sic has already arranged for his pas
sage and freight on me first steamer
that goes up the Yukon river this
summer. 1t was impossible for Mr..
Eassie to think of going in overland,
the route taken by George w. otter
son, another Honoluluite. because OF
the heavy freight he is taking up.
Mr.. Eassie goes to the front in the
interests of company of Island peo-
pie. He will go in on large scale,
employing eight or ten experienced
miners i'm California who will be sent
to different portions of the Klondike
to stake off claims, wherever gold is
found Under the Canadian mining
law claim must be staked off by the
individual.
Mr.. Eassie, who has had his share
of hard knocks about the mining
camps, will shoulder his share of the
hardships in the frozen north. He
will leave yong Scott in Dawson to be
his business agent.
DR.. II. \. Lindley has resigned his
position as government physician Mt
Kealakekua, on Hawaii, and has sold
his fine coffee plantation on that Is
land He will be in Honolulu on tho
18th of next month ready to accompa-
ny Mr.. Eassie to California. While
DR.. Lindley desires to join Mr.. Eassie's
company it is not probable that such
an arrangement will be made. DR..
Lindley has invited John II. Jones, an
employe of the Manufacturers Shoe
Company, to accompany him. Mr..
Jones still has the matter under con-
sideration.

PRESIDENT INDIGNANT AT THE
VIRULENT HOAX.
Sugar Trust Agents Interpolate Clause
in japanese eTreaty-Most Pernicious
Attempt to Influence Opinion.

The story published in reference 10
the admitting of japanese to United
States citizenship has no foundation
in fact, says a special telegram to the
San Francisco Bulletin, dated the ev-
ening of February 4th. The follow
ing are the facts:
WASHINGTON, February 4.-Much
indignation is felt. by President Mic
Kinley and the administration at the
hoax which has been forced on the
American public through the press
dispatches of last night, which gave
the impression that the Japanese
have been accorded the rights of citi-
zenship in the United States. Evident
ly the sugar trust and all its press ag-
ents in the efforts to push their pres
ent scheme against annexation, have
altered and added to the treaty OF
1895 between Japan and this country.
To the phrase of the treaty which
says that "in the rights of residence,
travel, possession of goods, succession
or transmission of personal estate,
the japanese shall enjoy without dis
elimination the rights, privileges and
liberties of native citizens or subjects
of those of the most favored nation
they have added the clause (which
carries with it rights of naturaliza-
tion and the exercise of the rights of
franchise" which by no means fol-
lows.
This treaty executed in 1895 cannot
be altered now. Neither could a new
treaty be formed giving the rights of
citizenship to the japanese, as Con-
gress has established rule excluding
Chinese and Japanese from the natur-
alization and the franchise. The most
that could be done in making an ad-
dition to this treaty in regard to the
Japanese subjects in Hawaii, is to say
that in case of annexation they should
have the same rights as those their
race now enjoy in the United States
The motive of the sugar trust in cir.
culating this hoax broadcast over the
country is obvious. 1t has created
much indignation here, as a very evi.
| dent attempt to falsify the admins.

them up to present them with woolen

of a proposition, but they are either
lacking in funds or nerve-probably
both. / offered to race them twenty
five miles, one man against five, each
of them to do five miles, and to wag-

to know if they will each accept a
check for 500, with a pair of woolen

THE AUDIENCE LIKED IT.

"The song that touched their hearts,
is as old as the hills, almost. The
leading man in "The Dazzler" combi-
nation, which has just closed a sue
cessful engagement, made a big hit
every night with his bicycle song. He
never failed to bring down the house
when he reached the verse telling
about the good qualities of the Sterl-
ing bicycles. The audiences were all
ready to hear good word said about
these wheels, and heartily encored the
singer each night The song was al
most as much of hit as the Sterl-
ing wheels have always been. Pacific

DAYTON is A WINNER.


Hon. U. >. G.. Pitzer has arrived at
this C0nclusion-Postma will put
the Man from Barbour in the race--A
hot Contest oyer the Election.
Hon. q. S. G. Pitzer, of Martins
burg, is in the city looking after his
political interests. He stated in a
conversation that he thought that
Dayton would again receive the
nomination for Congress from this
district. He came to this conclu-
sion after a canvass of the district
in his own interest and after hear
ing from Preston which however he
said was no surprise to him. Dayton
has the county organizations every
where and is making every edge cut
in the effort to pluck the plum. Day
ton will have practically no opposi-
ton for the nomination now seems
to be the outlook. Should an active
Democrat be nominated the chances
for the election of the man from Bar
bour will be pretty slim. The fight
in the district will be very hot one
this fall. Dayton's appointments
while they will get him the nomina
ton will be against him when it
comes to the real contest.
