A FORGOTTEN PRECEDENT.
BY Which the President Alone May
Seize Hawaii.

Washington, June 9.-The president
has in contemplation, according to a
senator who was In consultation with
him today, the submission of special
message to the two houses of congress,
calling for the immediate annexation
of Hawaii as military necessity. Ac-
cording to this senator the message
will be delayed for few days to await
action that may be taken by Speaker
Reed and the committee on rules, but
it is very likely to go in early next
week.
If, as foreshadowed, President Nc
Kinley should take the matter of Ha-
waiian annexation into his own hands,
without awaiting action by congress,
he would only be following precedent
set by President Monroe eighty-one
years ago.
About midway between Brunswick
Ca, and Jacksonville, Fla, lies Amelia
island 1t is separated from the main
land by a channel from two to four
miles wide and is sixteen miles long
by four miles wide. 1t came into
prominence early in the century as a
rendezvous of pirates and other out
laws A part of Florida, it was under
the dominion of Spain, yet so near the
Georgia line as to be at once a menace
and a disgrace to part OF the United
States. Spain either could not or
would not suppress the buccaneers, and
finally in the summer of 1917 President
Monroe concluded to take possession OF
the island and cleanse it of its criminal
population.
Nothing was said formally to Spain
regarding his intentions. The pres1-
dent did not even touch his hat in pass
ing, or so much as say "by your leave y
There was no doubt a tacit understand
ing between the two governments. At
least, Spain never made any com
plants, glad, no doubt, to be rid OF the
nuisance without trouble or expense.
But after awhile France saw mt TO
make inquiry into the matter. 1t was
the response of the United States min
lister, Gallatin, to the French minister
of foreign affairs which gave sign1fi-
canoe to the Amelia affair, lifting II
from the level of mere incident tc
the dignity of a grave precedent Here
is the proposition laid down by Cal
latin, and ever since recognized as
good international law:
The possession taken by the United
States of Amelia Island, in Florida. gave
1t a possessory title for which it was ac-
countable only to Spain.
This is equivalent to saying that NJ

PROSPEROUS REFUGEES

Kingston, Jamaica, June s.-1he
royal mail steamer sailing for London
this week will carry $200,000 in Span
ish gold. Broad Alphonso pieces are
more in circulation in this island than
English sovereigns. Probably a mil
lion dollars in coin has been brought
to Jamai'a from Cuba by refugees
during the last six weeks.
Three or four thousand of these
refugees fill the hotels. lodges and
otherwise vacant houses in the coast
towns. Most of them are well-to-do.

proves the trade of the colony and re
lieves the deep financial depression

third party has any right to interfere
with or object to title by possession.
1t is altogether an affair between the
former owner and the present pos
SCISSOR. Spain, and Spain only could
, object.
According to this almost forgotten
Monroe doctrine, IL the United States
should raise it's flag over the port OF
Honolulu and the islands of Hawaii,
the republic Of Hawaii alone would
have a right to protest or interfere.
That is the doctrine held and upheld
in the Amelia precedent. It is well
known that Hawaii wants to be an
nexed, and is not particular how an
nexation is brought about, provided
only it is effectual and permanent. 1t
follows that no complications could
arise from the United States acQu1r-
ing a "possessory title" to that repub-
lie. If the Dole government did not
complain no government could.

famine pestilences want particularly call attention
 An editorial The Call of May 13 tells a part of what is happening It reads follows:
 Europe is just going through such crisis. Bread riots have occurred in Spain and in Italy and in both countries the professional agators and revolu- tionisS have taken advantage of them to fncte the people to revolt The situation is bad in Spain, but in Italy. Although there is to be- lieve that the censorship of the press at Rome has suppressed much possible the truth of the has been published it that insurrec- tions amounting almost to the dignity of civil war have broken out and the very integrity of the king dom is threatened.
 The situation is the more serious because there is every prospect that economic conditions throughout Europe will grow worse before they become better. The wheat crop in all parts the Continent. To prevent further rise in the price of bread the French Government has suspended the duty on the France and according recent reports the crop in Russia is small that the Government of that try proposes to prohibit the export of wheat in order that it may retain enough for it's own people,
 But this is not all It is a weA-known fact that Austria has enough food this to feed it's people yet where she buy, admitting she has the money?
 Australia has been buying food con- siderable period, California purchasing from Oregon and the East owing to the drouth in this State while the famine in India IS too recent to be forgotten In China the conditions fully bad, so the famines spoken of at least half the earth.
 Now as to pestilences: Those who read the papers SC da or the nG way bn its by the plague. In China there whole districts which people have ceased to bury the dead They carry the bodies out to the fields and the carrion crows. the jackals, dogs and wolves feed the disease
 And now as O and Was there ever time when the manufacturers of deadly weapons busy at present? Tn fact there is not nation earth which the war clouds are lowering, and worst of all every sign points to the certainty that the struggle clearly lowering over earth is to be religious war; al- ways the most malignant form of strife.
