HAWAII ANNEXED,
Great Excitement in the Senate When the
Resolutions Were Passed

Washington. July 6-Ihe annexation OF
Hawaii is now accomplished, so far as the
legislative branch of the government Is
concerned, quite Unexpectedly the reso-
buttons providing for the annexation of
the islands was brought to vote In the
senate late this afternoon and they we're
passed by the decisive vote of ~ to 81.
Early in todays session OF the senate
conferences of the leaders on both sides
OF the chamber were held and a tacit
agreement was reached that a vote should
be taken tomorrow or Friday at the
latest. The opponents Of annexation prac-
tically had concluded their arguments
and as they had no desire to keep the
senate in session by purely dilatory tao
ties they announced their willingness that
A vote should be taken as soon as White,
Pettigrew and Allen had tininshed their
speeches.
Neither White nor Pettigrew spoke at
any great length, but Allen thought when
he began that his speech might occupy
the entire day and part of tomorrow.
However. he concluded to eliminate part
OF the matter he had prepared and at
Ais he completed his speech.
1t was evident instantly that vote
was at hand. Word was passed swiftly
through the corridors and committee
rooms and in few minutes every senator
at the capitol was in his seat. The gal
leries flied rapidly and members Of the
house of representatives learning that
vote was to be taken came hurriedly
into the senate side of the great marble
pile to witness the proceedings that will
be historic.
The test vote came on the amendment
Offered by White, of California. It was
offered with no expectancy that 1t woulo
be adopted, but merely to place the ideas
and opinion of the opponents OF annex
alton on record. It was rejected by q

Your Stationary.

II is getting to be the proper thing
for farmers as well as merchants and
other business men to have printed sta
tionary. And we can see no reason
why they should not take their proper
place among business men by adopting
business methods in az many ways rs
possible There is combination of
business and sentiment in giving your
farm name like Valley View Place,
Maple Spring Farm" Hillside or
something OF the kind rs it lends GER
tain dignity and individuality to the
place, an increased sense of pride in the
proprietorship thereof, as well as addi-
tonal importance in the eyes OF produce
dealers or commission merchants with
whom you are dealing. A small invest
ment in printed stationary giving 20
residence and business, such as bre
ing of thoroughbred stock, the mani
ture of dairy produce, etc, might pro
of no slight advantage to you, as
as giving certain degree OF satisfac-
ton And when you conclude to have
some note heads and envelopes printed
remember that the same can be had Mt
the CITIZEN Office as cheap and good as
anywhere.
