WHERE ARE WE

Friday last, the oath, was set as the
limit for debate in the Senate upon
the joint resolution for annexation Of
HAWAII, Under the circumstances, it
IS almost safe to assume that the de-
bate ended. the resolution was adopt
Ell ard has been already signed by
the President
AS the joint resolution is drawn, and
taken in connection with the treaty Of
annexation as ratified by the Hawaiian
Senate the act of annexation is prob
ably effective and complete without
further action in the matter by our
Senate.
If this view is correct, and nothing
has INSTRUCTED the vote on the joint
resolution, Hawaii is today a. part of
the United States. The signing of the
joint resolution by the President, if it
is necessary. would be the final act.
We believe there is no provision for
the act of annexation becoming eff
fective upon notice of any kind. So
that, as a matter Of fact, the flag ought
to be floating over the Executive build
ing, and the native Hawaiians may
now be citizens of the United States.

The citizens of Honolulu have en-
tertained over 1000 enlisted men OF
the American army for three days,
during the last week, and it has been
most successfully done The arrange
ments involved less hard and mental
labor on the part Of the generous
ladies who assisted, than the entertain
ment of the first division of troops No
more admirable place could be found
than the extensive grounds around the
Executive building, with the stately
royal palms and large shade trees. The
lawn covered with wire" grass, as it is
called in some states, and Bermuda
grass in other states, made an excellent
and attractive green carpet for these
thousands of men TO lie upon. The
tables for refreshments were wholly
in the shade. On the whole, it may be
modestly claimed that 1000 men have
not been entertained by private citi-
zens so generously in any part of the
United States.
The chapter of social incidents is
long and interesting. and it proved
once more how small the world is.
Hardly a resident failed to meet
among the officers or men, either an
old acquaintance, or mutual friend.
Many brought notes of introduction.
College men met college men. The
newspaper men found many acQuaint-
ances. Business men met the sons of
other business men in the ranks. The
ocean between America and Hawaii
narrowed to 4 mere channel.
The ladies of Honolulu were again
on their mettle As the transports
came within the harbor the earnest
cry for pie from the enlisted men
went over the city and reverberated
back from the mountains 4 thousand
young warriors. some of them quite
homesick. too. took their pie, raised
their eyes in gratitude and murmured
ct is my mothers pie" The enthus-
iasm of the ladies of this place has
known no bounds. Honolulu, in every
possible way, generously threw open
her doors to these men, who follow
Old Glory, and like the hospitabIe
Arab said to one and all, My house is
your house"

Honolulu mail has been accumulat-
ing quite rapidly at the pOstoffice for
several days and the Foreign Office
will make a big addition to what might
be called the regular amount. The
whole of the Foreign Office force of
clerks was busy yesterday with letters
and papers left by the Boys in Blue.
There were handled 5,249 letters, 249
postal cards and $50 papers.
The Gazette Company is sending
away for Boys in Blue LOO papers OF
the special edition containing a full
account of the visit of the second eX-
petition. The souvenir number will
be in colors and copies will be on sale
at this Office today.
