By large majority the Senate refused
to discuss the Hawaiian treaty in open
session. What reasons were offered for
This refusal does not appear. 1t is difficult
to conceive of any good ones. The ques-
ion is one which concerns only Hawaii
and the United States. No other nation
is interested. None Of them is Offering
any objection or taking any more than a
languid interest in it, therefore there is
no tactical reason for keeping the argu-
ments for and against the treaty secret.
We are making no secret trade which
publicity might interfere with. The
question to be determined is whether it
will be right and wise for the United
States to annex these islands, and in the
settlement of this question the people OF
the United States ought to have some
voice. A matter of such vital impor-
tance ought really to be voted on by
the people before it is contaminated, but
instead OF that they nre not even to be al
lowed TO hear It discussed. A Senate
chosen without reference to this issue at
al is to decide it behind closed doors.

Mr. Hanna was not, strictly speaking,
elected Senator yesterday, but the votes
in the House and Senate showed that he
will have majority when the two houses
meet in joint convention today, unless
somebody changes his mind, which is
not probable. There were charges and
counter charges Of bribery, as there al
ways are in such cases, but how much
foundation there is for them it is impos-
sible to say. There was plenty of money
on both sides of the contest and 1t would
not be at all strange if some of it had

its disappearance, was discovered by Pons
the famous French comet hunter in 1919,
and it has period of 5. 81, its last pre-

The orbit of this comet is said to be COM
paratively close to the earth's orbit but
assurance comes from competent authori-
ty that it would be useless to attempt to
sprinkle salt on its tail as it passes.

Out In Denver, Col, the Hon. George
Fred Williams is fayorably mentioned as
Mr. Bryan's running mate in the next
Presidential campaign. There is no
doubt that he would make a good one.
Besides, he has earned recognition of this
sort. But it is extremely doubtful if Mr..
BRYAN will be the next Democratic Presi-
Dental candidate. The dictator OF the
next Democratic nomination is likely to
be what Dr. Gordon says is our ''most
powerful and most honest political organ
ization,' Tammany Hall, and Tammany
Hall will have no use for Bryan. 1t did
not support him before with any enthusi-
asm, and certainly it is not likely. to
look upon him with any more favor two
years hence The only possible way in
which Bryan can get the nomination is
by keeping free silver to the front as the
mcst prominent issue. and unless there
is collapse Of industry and business he
cannot do that Tanmany remembers
the effect of free silver in New York and
will have mono Of that if it can help it.
Furthermore there is marked abatement
of interest In the subject evensin the west
where its chief strength has always resid-
ed. It has began to pail upon the taste
of the kaneans and Nebraskans, also.

Senator Chandler says the President is
as good a silver man as he. Very likely,
and, it might be added, he is good deal
better gold man. In other words while

can financial plank but that which prom
ises to promote au international agree
ment for the use of silver President Nc
Kinley remembers the other pledge to
maintain and preserve the gold standard
until such an agreement is arrived at
Mr.. Mckinley has kept the bimetallic
pledge by sending abroad commission
to ascertain if the commercial nations of
Europe would join us in monetary con-
ference 1t returned with the report that
they would not. Mr., Mckinley then
recommended in his message to Congress
certain legislation which he believed to
be necessary to preserve the gold standard
This legislation, or in fact any legisla-
ton in that direction, Mr.. Chandler op-
poses, and for the reason that it will tend
to preserve the gold standard. Mr.. Chan
der stands ty half Of the Republican
pledge and rejects the other half. Presi-
dent Mckinley stands by the whole of it.

A Midnight Alarm.

At midnight Chairman Neary put on
foot a project to put Democratic Peace
Officers at the polls, Notwithstanding his
agreement not to do so. Ii he persists in
carrying out this scheme Sheriff Finn
will swear in Republican Deputies and
riots are almost sure to result.
There are 100 Pinkertons in the State
now and so long as only the local police
appear at the polls nothing will be done
by the detectives.
In the event of rioting they will prove
powerful aids to the local police.
If there is a riot the blame will be
Neary's.
