ANY Time.

The anti-annexdtionists are trying their
best to provoke the friends of the Hawaiian
resolutions to reply to their speeches. so
as to prolong the discussion. The latter,
however, still declare that they do not in
tend to talk at all and cannot be provoked
to do so. The question was fully discussed
in executive session day after day Oh one
side ard the other. The friends of annex
alton are satisfied with that discussion
They cannot cut off the senators on the
other side who want to talk, but decla re
that they will not contribute in any way
10 the consumption of time. Under these
circumstances there is very little for the
opposition speakers to draw on to sus-
tain their efforts. The debate has already
become monotonous- Very little attention
has been paid to Mr.. Whites talk
Senator Caffery is said to have q speech
OF prodlsious length which he intends to
deliver, and Senator Pettigrew has a long
speech Besides these most of the senators
IN the opposition are counted on to talk,
but lew OF them Will make speeches of
any considerable length. 1t is calculated
that the next six or eight days will ex-
haust the talk II it does not the friends

the agencies of growth necessary to cx-
tend the area of their supremacy
While there are 49, coo people at the
present time whose everyday language
is English, there are only 100000 who
speak Russian. only 100000 who SPEAK
German, only 100000 who speak French,
only 100000 who speak Spanish and
only S5,0c0.0O0 who speak Italian.
The marvellous growth of the English
tongue is directly due TO the rapid de-
yelopment Of the United States, aided,
Of course, by the Anglo-Saxon's natural
coonizing spirit. In this country there
are less than 100000 people, and great
Iy less than that number in the whole CT
The United Kingdom. This estimate in
doates the spread Of the language into
all parts of the world. 1t is a significant
fact that colony of EngIish-speaking
people, instead of Abandoning their ma
tive tongue and embracing that of their
adopted nationality invariably adhere
to their own language and eventually
color that of the people with whom they
are brought into contact. 1t Is also sig
nfcant that English is the only Ian
guage which is now showing rapid
growth. Most OF the other tongues are
slowly dying.
