luton was natural, logical, and as
common in the worlds history, as
lit is natural and common to throw
away ragged coat. even if it be
cast off in sorrow, because it had
been gorgeous. and useful.
Curiously enough, liable" men,
here and elsewhere. fail TO see
how simple and natural the move
ment was. Chas. NOrdhOff. an eX-
perienced journalist, and the edi-
tors of the Nation, calling them
selves leading thinkers on politi-
cal philosophy, saw in the move
ment only low, criminal purposes,
and unhOly energy working blind
~ together. They did not see,
strangely enough, that the history
of the United States, furnished
the reason and example for all
that was done here. So with alb
solute confidence, they predicted
Il speedy restoration" and were
bitterly disappointed because it
would not come. Then they got
mad, just as the Siamese astrono-
mers get mad, when they predict
a comet, and it doesn't turn up.
These liable thinkers" ignored
the facts. Instead of studying the
complex phenomena Of political
facts here, they preferred, like
Josh Billings, to "eat pork and
drink hard cider till midnight;;"
and then prophesy the rest of the
night about the immediate restor-
alton.

PENAL CONTRACT LABOR

One of the most important
measures before the coming Leg
islature. will be the question of
the abolition Of penal contract
labor. The gradual abolition of
it is forced by the extreme Deepen
dence of our prosperity on the
good will of the United States.
where such labor is not tOlerat-
ed. The growing rivalry to our
sugar industry. of the sugar beet
industry Of the States, creates "a
large body of men. continually in
creasing in numbers. who will
take a personal interest in Grip
pling our own industry, should
annexation not take place.
1t has been, and will be the
policy of the Advertiser to urge
Il thorough consideration of this
matter by the next Legislature.
But the abolition of it should be
so adjusted as to affect with the
least disturbance the credit. and
prosperity of our plantations.

The work of '93 stands today.
1t finds us with more cOmplicat-
ed problems, owing to our racial
and economic difficulties, than ex-
ist anywhere else, probably, in pro
portion to theinhabitants. Although
this is true, we shall never con.
slider them seriously, until they
breed calamities. If we suffer
from calamities, we shall know it
is ''fOr our own good" and be
thankful. The acts of '93 were a
step forward. History says there
is no step backward.

The above words are from the
correspondence, in Washington,
of our bitter enemy, the San Fran
cisco Call. That correspondence
details the probable change Of
opinion by several leading Sena-
tors on the matter of ratification,
and the words we quote give the
reason for it.
The strategic" argument, mn
wisely forced to the front, has
frightened conservative men in
America. Those who pushed it,
hardly realized that Captain Ma
hans argument for the anneXa-
ton of Hawaii, called for, and he
insisted on it, a vast navy to de
fend it. Now the Americans
don't like that sort of talk, be
cause they are no longer savages,
and prefer peace to war. And be-
sides, they have no more fear of
a terrible war, than the people OF
these Islands have q fear of being
suddenly swallowed up by an
earthquake.
The one great unassailable ar
gument in favor of annexation,
from the American standpoint, is
the need of possessing in the Paci-
fic, great commercial exchange,
like Hong Kong, which is the
third most important port III the
world, if we are correct. Great
Britain holds this spot directly in
front of Chinese trade.
This argument, so far as our
own experience goes in conversing
with very conservative men in the
States, arrests their attention. 1t
does not brighten them. 1t sets
them to thinking.
If the statement ofvthe Call is
correct, we feel like abandoning
for a moment our sense of the
dangers of the situation, and
saying that the words of the Call
are equivalent to a declaration
that the treaty will be speedily
ratified.

Five years ago, today, the Mon
archy committed suicide. 1t
threw itself on the sharp blade of
the knife which the Teutonic races
keep, though generally concealed,
for self defense, and the defense
of law and order. The Monarchy
tried to kill itself in 1880, when
the adventurer Moreno was made
the leading man in the Govern
ment. But it pulled back when
the blade had penetrated only
through the skin. 1t tried to kill
itself again in 1887, when it drove
itself once more against the leu
tonic knife. and cut itself badly,
but not fatally. The TeutOnic
race was merciful, sewed up the
wounds, and nursed them, and
simply said to the Monarchy:
''The knife never moves. There
fore don't jump at it."
In '93, the Monarchy, once
more, foolishly, but naturally
enough, threw itself against the
reluctant and immovable blade of
the TeutOnics, with such force.
that it touched the heart. and was
mOrtally wounded. Then came
the Republic.
