Within the last three months the
United States have been confronted
with grave problems that affect the
very foundations of government, the So
luton of which involves a care1ul re-
view of all past history, a study OF
constitutional principles, and thorough
statesmanship.
Studied from any viewpoint the prob
lem is complex and full of difficulties.
If this nation adheres to the old Jeffer-
sonian idea that there should be no al
lances with foreign Powers, and that
the extension of it's dominion afar is un-
constitutional, or if it holds that new
times make new obligations and invite
to wider dominion, the problem is alike
puZzling. In the opinion of careful
students of the time it is the greatest
question that has yet confronted Amer
leans. They must now settle problems
that reach out into world politics, and
the entire trend of national history will
depend upon the solution finally adopt

Thirds Vote Is Wanting.
ON A JOINT RESOLUTION NOW
Perhaps a County of California.
Commission.

WASHINGTON, February 23.-Im-
mediately on the return to the city OF
Senator Davis, chairman of the Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations, a
meeting of that body will be held to
consider the form of bill which is to
take the place of the Hawaiian treaty,
for it was admitted by a prominent
Senator, a member of the committee
named, that in the absence of a two
thirds vote to ratify the treaty nemore
time will be lost in pressing for con-
sideration a bill of annexation. 1t is
believed there will be sufficient votes
to carry through bill from the start,
and, large majority being assured,
it is thought the debate will not be
prolonged. Senators favoring the bill
now expect there will be a vote reach
ed upon the resolution not later than
April LIST, and perhaps sooner.
In framing the bill it will be the aim
to define the future status of the ISL
ands, which, if satisfactorily done, it is
believed will so disarm criticism in
the House as to guarantee considera-
ton there, which now means passage.
1t is learned that Speaker Reeds first
point of objection is to the possibility
that a State will be created soon and
two Senators and Members of Congress
given to the newly acquired territory.
On account of this feeling, which ex-
tends to many members of both houses.
a plan is now being considered serf-
ously of making the Islands county
OF California, which would mean the
giving to the county of Hawaii one
State Senator and two Assemblymen
and making it the Eighth district to-
insure representation at the capital
Some advocates of this plan are urging
that it will disarm the objections of
those who foresee statehood in a short
time and secure their assent to the pro-
position.

SEATTLE, (Wash.), February "a
BY the arrival of the steamships Aus

capacity of the Alaskan fleet of the
Pacific Coast Steamship Company was
increased nearly 5000 per month. No
finer vessels steam through the waters
of the Northern Pacific ocean than

Francisco. The Australia brought 270
passengers, majority of whom are on
their way to Alaska. She is scheduled
to sail notrh Saturday and will be filled
with passengers and freight The Aus
tralia was chartered by the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company from the
Oceanic line. For 10 years she has been
running between San Francisco and
Honolulu. The Victoria was built at
Portland in $780, She was totally re-
modelled, as her engines were more
powerful than her hull would justify.
Recently she made 20 knots an hour on
trial. She will sail for Alaska Sunday.
