GovERNUR's TALK.
What They Say About the Annexation
Of Hawaii.

New York. Jan. A-rhe Herald has OBJ
tained the views Of some Of tho governors
Of states on the subject OF annexation Of
Hawai-. TIE interviews follow:
Governor Leedy Of Kansas-I believe
the Hawaiian islands should be annexed
by the United States for these reasons:
Within short time canal win Be built
across the isthmus Of Panama This ca
nal should be controlled by the United
States. The nation having possession Of
these islands viii command the road to
that canal and viii also possess the key
TO the Pacific ocean from maritime
standpoint My belief b that II we allox
Hawaii to sip out OF our fingers now.
within 80 years our necessities would COM
pei US to fight to get possession OF the
islands and therefore It seems to me to
be good policy to set them while we can
in peace.
Governor Adams. Of colorado-while
not enthusiastic. believe the future com
mercial good OF the United States would
justify the annexation OF the islands.
But hundred fold more important
movement would Be the building Of the
Nicaragua canal. as a guaranty OF fu-
ture power and empire. We need both,
but first OF all, the canal
Governor Holcomb, OF Nebraslra--I am
opposed to Hawaiian annexation. For a
century Il has been the well defined policy
OF this country to avoid line OF action
tending 10 entanglements with foreign
nations Annexation would be used as a
pCetext to appeal to the spirit Of militia
rism OF the people Of our country.
Governor Stevens, OF NIissouri-I am op-
posed to the annexation OF the Hawaiian
islands, but cannot explain my position
satisfactorily in an interview.
Governor Tanner, OF IlIinols-R Refused to
express an opinion on the matter.
Governor Clough, Of Minnesota-Ha-
wall is a case of gobble or see It gobbied.
II We don't take the Sandwich islands
the British will. Uncle Sam sees pearl
glistening at his feet, and he has not the
astuteness I'd ascr1be to him II he does
not pick 1t UP.
Governor Bushnell, OF ohio-The United
States should approve the annexation. l
believe voice the sentiment Of 75 per
cent of the people of ohio. 1t would then
be naval stronghold. commercial ben
efit and is worth tenfold the price asked
for it.
Govguor Lee, Of South Dakota-rhe
first duty OF this country is to Cuba, to
stop the butchery in that island at any
cost. After that. II Hawaii is Of any
strategic value to this country and its
citizens are desirous Of annexation. 1t
would probably be good policy to take the
islands in,

New York. January 2L-rhere Is reason
to belisve that the moral Influence Of the
United States will support Great Britain
in her efforts TO keep China open TO the
commerce OF mo world. says the Washing
ton correspondent Of the Herald. The
only active stops which the adminlstra-

be to enter the negotiations with Germany
respecting tho treatment OF American
ships SRering Kiao Chou and such other
ports in China as may be seized In the fu-
ture BY Russia or Japan. II China has
leased KIao Chou on the condition that
Il shall be opsnsd by Germany As Chin
osc port. thon II will not be necessary for
the president to take steps In the matter.

ut will mean that the commerce OF all
nations will be allowed unrestricted entry

Chou should b. LEASED 20 Germany with.
out conditions. then Germany viii have
the right and will undoubtedly exercise IL
to put In operation port and customs
regulations such as are now in force In
German home ports
The United States cannot make OBJ
lection to the extension o. such regu-
lRtions IN Kiao Chou In such an event. for
II will be German soil TO all intents and
purposes, as in Hamburg. However. the
administration VIII expeci from Germany
any privileges that may b. granted by
her to any other nation and VIII there
fore reap the advantages which Great
Brltain's attitude against the shutting Of
ne Chinese door TO the commerce Of the
world viii gvc.
This n required In accordance with the
articles OF the treaty between the United
Stats ana Russia OF ms which provides:
II each party shall hereafter grant to any
nation any particular favor OF navigation
or commerce b shall Immediately become
common to the other party freely where
It is freely granted 10 such nation or
Yield the same compensation when the
grant is conditional
Attaches OF the Chinese legation are
naturally very much pleased at the atti-
tude assumed by Great Britain. as they
appreciate that she win have the moral
infiuence OF the United States and other
nations trading with China which have
no territorial designs on the Celestial EN-
pire. The policy which Great Britain has
Inaugurated means they feel confident the
