MR.. K4ULIA'S ARGUMENT.

By no means the least convincing arguments
IN favor Of annexation Of Hawaii are furnished
by those who are ostensibly opposing that
measure. The utterances Of Dir. Kaulia, the
chairman of the delegation Of anti-annexation-
lists now IN Washington, furnish striking case
IN point He says he and his comrades do not
want annexation. They want continued indie
rendence But when asked about the strength
Of Hawaii and the possibility Of It's standing
alone and defending its independence against
the advances and aggressions of other coun-
tries he says frankly it Is not able to do that
Hawaii must have the continued protection Of
the United States or it cannot maintain it's in
dependence And he adds: IF we cannot have
'that and our independence. why, of course, we
"say annexation to the United States rather
"than control by any other country"
Now. that is just the point all along insisted
upon by the advocates of annexation. The Ha-
waiian Islands are unable to maintain their in
dependence without the protection OF this coun-
try That, indeed. has been the case for the
last fifty years. All parties in Hawaii seem
agreed upon II. But one party. unofficial and
self-copstituted, wants 10 keep with the
show Of Independence under American protec-
ton. system that has been full of difficulties
for both parties and has resulted in the extinc-
islands. The other party, the authoritative
Government Of the islands. which even the
ant-ann cxatonists declare 10 be good Gov
eminent and one which they would be satisfied
TO keep In power, wants TO annex the islands
outright TO the United States and thus at once
relieve this country Of the embarrassments OF
the anomalous protectorate system end secure
for Hawaii the advantages which are to be had
only In belonging 10 the United States
IL is agreed by most Of the opponents of an
nexation In this country that, Mr.. Kaulia
says annexation is TO be preferred TO control
of the islands by any other Power But they
ask. why should things not go on as they are?
For fifty years we have been warning all other
nations TO keep their hands of. and have done
so effectively. Why not continue that system
There are many reasons. One Is that such a
protectorate is an anomaly to form of gov
eminent The gentlemen who urge IT are afraid
Annexation without immediate Statehood would

HOME AT LAST
The Gunboat Marietta at Anchor at
Kew West

KEY WEST, June 4.--The United States
gunboat Marietta arrived here today after
a long voyage from Valparaiso.
The trip was uneventful and there was
not even case of sickness aboard Much
of the voyage was made in company with
the battleship Oregon and the first ques-
ton of the Marietta's officers was as to
the Oregon's whereabouts.
After the Marietta passed Cape Horn
she kept a sharp lookout for the Spanish
torpedo gunboat Temerario, which was sup
posed to be hunting for the Oregon. The
Marietta's officers We're very anxious to
meet the Spaniard and they say that if a
meeting had taken place she would have
surely sunk her. During the entire voy-
age they sighted only half dozen vessels.
The Marietta left Rio Janeiro on May g.
The men on board had heard no war news
later than the first bulletin of Rear-Ad-
miral Deweys victory at Manila.
The Marietta anchored on her arrival
here and hoisted a flag. for DOCTOR Pend
ing his arrival no one was allowed to leave
or come aboard the vessel and the cor
shouted brief summary of the war news
to the officers, the report of which caused
much laughing and rejoicing. The Mar
ietta is painted black. Her course was
through Province channel and she saw no
warships in West Indian waters.

Recruits for the Navy

WASHINGTON. June Ain answer to
inquiries from the United States abroad,
the State Department has secured from the
Navy Department and published state
ment of the conditions governing naval enc
listments. In brief these are that during
war no one can be recruited in a foreign
country; that aliens who have declared
their intention of becoming United States
citizens and in exceptional cases those who
do not, are enlisted provided they under
stand the English language. There is no
fund for paying travelling expenses be-
fore enlistments are made. If aliens are
enlisted, they are eligible to any position
for which they can qualify, but the GUS
toms and regulations of the service have
been that only men Of long and continued
service receive the highest ratings and
not even a citizen of the United States re-
siding abroad can enlist in time Of war
without coming to the United States unless
neutrality laws are violated.

ORIENTAL MINES
Reports of Mineral Wealth of the
PHILIPPINES

:
WASHINGTON, June 4.-Notes on the
Philippine Islands have been issued by the
State Department as No. III of the ad-
vance sheets of the Consular reports.
One expert extensively quoted, Frank
Caruth, says that extensive gold deposits
have been opened up quite near the sea,
assuring a large output for many years to
come 1t has also been proved that they
extend over a wide district.
Alluvial gold is found in the island of
Mindanao and there are extensive copper
deposits in Luzon. While no true coal has
been found there is Ignite, of very good
quality, quite useful for steam vessels.
This is in great quantity. Roughly washed
alluvial gold has been found to contain
rubies and hyacinths. There is no want
of labor at cheap rates and on the whole
the general conditions for mining are eX-
ceptionally favorable.
Some facts of interest aside from mining
are noted. For instance, the Philippine
archipelago contains nearly 1000 islands.
Two of them are larger than Ireland, Luzon
with $1,000 and Mindanao with $4,000 square
miles. Earthquakes are not infrequent.
The rainfall is not excessive, nor is it con-
tinuous. The climate is very healthful for
a tropical region and diseases such as yell
low fever are unknown. The natives are
mostly Malays, but in the interior are
remnants of race of Papuan origin.
The author of the pamphlet speaks in the
highest terms of the character of the nat
ives. The family tie is very strong, chill
dren are orderly, parents respected and
the race has an inbred courtesy and prud-
ence and ready hospitality is never miss
ing. Eight million natives inhabit the
Philippines: food resources are ample and
famine is unknown.

A SkaguaY Murder

SKAGUAY, Alaska, May 20, via Victoria.
B. c., June A mysterious murder was
brought to light here yesterday. Ella d.
Wilson. colored woman, was found
strangled to death in her cabin in the
center of town. She had been bound, gag
ged, choked and pillow placed over her
head so that she might not revive. Her
mouth was stuffed full of cheese cloth and
a strip of the same material tightly twisted
about her neck and the ends knotted under
one ear
A pair of rubber boots with a pistol in
one were beside the bed. There was evil
dence that robbery had been committed or
attempted. but a trunk filled with male at
tire was not disturbed, and this may fur
nish a clue to the murder.
