Presidential travelling.

Now that Hawaii is actually a part of the
United States, the people of the islands are
beginning to display their new patriotism
by inviting the President to visit them.
Copies OF the Honolulu papers recently re-
Ceived here contain the suggestion that in
asmuch as Hawaii is included in the re-
public there is no reason to prevent Pres
ident Mckinley from paying a visit of in
spection. to look over his new charges SO
to speak, and extend to the next to the
youngest member of the American family
Il states and territories personal greetings.
This visit is urged as the more desirable In
view of the fact that nearly one of the last
official acts of President Dole of the now
extinct government, was to visit Washing
ton in furtherance of the project of union.
IS The Star indicated some time ago, there
is no law in existence which prohibits
President of the United States from leav-
ing the boundaries of the country, although
there is a practically unbroken custom to
the same effect. Except by inadvertence
no President has ever yet, as far as is
Known, gone beyond the bounds. 1t is re-
lated that President Arthur was once
driven across into Canada while sight
seeing at Niagara Falls, but this was an
evident oversight and did not cause any
outside the three-mile limit on the sea-
coast on his fishing and hunting expedi
tions. AS far the law stands there is
10 more reason today why the President
should visit Hawaii than there was before
annexation. save that as these islands are
now American territory it might be con-
strued as permissible under the custom for
him tC go there. being constructively on
American soil during his voyage If, for in
stance, ne should travel On a man-of-war.

supposed to avoid, the chance of a sew
erance of the Presidents connections with
Washington and suspension Of executive
functions. Travel by land within the
ticnal limits does not prevent constant

governments engineer and his engine
This is obviously impossible in the course
Of a sea trip, especially one lasting week
1t is clear that such a trip as that to
Hawaii would involve the possibility of
serious lapses in the government. There is
TO record of a President designating some
one 60 act temporarily for him, as Is done
in the departments. In view of the dill
culties in the way and the force of the
custom, which is backed by sentiment as
We'll as reason, it does not now seem likely
that President of the United States will
visit Hawaii during his term of Office.

Keep Them Out.
From the Chicago Tribune.

General Wood deserves strong commen-
two schooner loads of indieent negro -
grants from Jamaica and Hayti to land at
Santiago. He ordered the schooners to
take their undesirable passengers back to
the ports from which they sailed thus sery
ing notice on all the other West India Is
lands that they will not be allowed to ship
any more of their worthless elements to
Cuba or Porto Rico. Cuba is no place for
emigrants in search of place where they
can avoid hard work Experience has
shown that there is already enough and to

land, and every means should be taken TO
Keep any more of it from being dumped on
cuban shores. Industrious Americans are
the immigrants now needed In Cuba, and
there will soon be plenty of these in the
island.

any complications which may have arisen
concerning the concessions, the integrity of
the government of Nicaragua or the pur-
poses of the syndicates involved Congress
should regard this question as of paramount
importance and approach it without delay
or demur at the coming session 1t is OF
sufficient consequence to warrant an extra
session. if necessary. The matter is fairly
well understood. Like the case of Hawaii,
it has been discussed again and again, ana
little remains now but decision between two
or three possible courses and the determna-
ton of the financial processes to be en-
plOyed to produce results most surely anu
quickly.
The case has assumed new phase our
ing the past few weeks. The concession
for building the canal is at present held by
the Maritime Canal Company. whose privl-
leCes expire October 9. 1899. This company
has done some work but. being embar-
rassed by the panic of 1893. was then COM
PEELED to stop operations and has since
been able to do comparatively httie-
Meanwhile this government has under-
taken a comprehensive survey of the situ-
ation sending an expert commission to the
ground whose report is soon to be made
public. 1t is understood that it earnestly
recommends the completion of the canal
Since granting the concession 10 tne MARI
time company which is identical with the
Nicaragua company, the government OF
Nicaragua has entered into an alliance with
the governments of Honduras and Saliva
dor. forming triple union which is to be
practically one government. This union
has now been perfected. The last act of
the Nicaraguan legislature before the
union took effect was to grant a conces-
sion to a newly-organized syndicate for the
construction of the canal, composed eX-
clusively of Americans, but with no con-
nection whatever with the government. By
with the Maritime company between now
and October next to conduct the future
operations a mutually satisfactory basis,
failing which it is to succeed the Maritime
company in all its undertakings.
AS far as the concession is now explained
there is in ii clause which prohibits the
transfer of the rights of the company to
police and control the canal to ANY foreign
government. 1t is of Importance that this
should be explained. If it should mean
that the United States is not to have an
opportunity to acquire the control of the
canal steps will doubtless be taken soon
by this government to prevent the develop
ment of such a condition. The time has
come to insist upon a clear understanding
Of the case to this end. Without regard to
the identity of the individual capitalists
who are concerned, the United States must
command the situation.

OF No Value to France.
From the Boston Herald,

The Fashoda incident appears likely to
pass away without occasioning war, this
result coming about by the retirement of
France from what was obviously an IN.
tcnable position. To France Fashoda rep
resented nothing but the occupation by a
handful of men of point in Central Africa,
separated by hundreds of miles of wilder
ness from the. nearest recognized French
possession. The occupancy of the place
could serve not the least interest for
France, except means of provoking the
English.

THE GREENVlLLE TRAM.
a S .alement that IT WIN BE Fat On Cbr:.t-
mRs.

While it has generally been accepted
as Tact that the extra train from
Greenville would not be put on, the
Gveer wood Index indicates that it has
information that It " i'll be between now
and Christmas.
The paper SAYS:
1t is probable that the efforts that
have been made bv the people living
along the Columbia aud G "eeuv;l,e rail
road to get the railroad officials to put
on an early train fcom Columbia to
Grecnv;ne will be success al.
"Since the meeting at C "eerwood sew
eral weeks ago the people have not
been idle. Another meeting was held
in Columbia last week and u coufec-
ence was had with the :.ai!road obi
cia's.
;'The railroad men seemed to be
afra'd the train would not paw. They
say the morning train, which at pre-
sent runs from Prosperity to Green
vile, does not pay below Greenwood.
''lt was represented that the uu-coun-
try could be give an early train with
out much additional cost. The South
ern alreadv has an early train from Co
lumbia to Union. Spartanburg and
Ashville, which uses the Columbia and
Grcenville tracks as far as Ais on. The
suggestion was made that this train
could bring coach from G.'eelvillc to
AlstOn, while the train which now
starts from Prosperit" could be extend
ed so us to stnrb from Aston, which is
only fifteen miles further.
"While Tile RAILROAD officials have
noS definitely promised 20 make tho
improvements requested, it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that they will do so.
The change IS loos ed 70" between now
aud Christmas.
"The new schedule will be a great
convenience to the travelling public
and O source of increased revenue for
the road"
Railroad officials here claim to know
nothing about the inauguration of such
train ut that time or any other. In
fact tbeV dtscountenance the idea al o.
gether. The question was referred to
the railroad officials at Washington,
but so ;ar rs can be learned no orders
have been issued in reference to it
