The Kansas City Star says: every
grave reasons, arising from justice,
humanity or necessity, alone can justify
the annexation Of new territory to the
United States, and it would appear that
a considerable number of senators fail
TO understand that these conditions APP
ply in the case of Hawaii. Enough
senators, it is ncw believed, doubt the
wisdom of aInexing the Sandwich
ISLANDS to our domain to defeat the
legislation necessary for that purpose.
Taking what may be called the
purely selfish view of the matter, there
is doubt of the benefits to be realized by
the United States from the annexation
of this distant region, with It's foreign
and alien population. The expense of
maintaining our authority there, it is
believed by many, would exceed any
possible revenue to be derived from it.
Territorial governments are at best
burden to the general government and
Hawaii would be peculiarly so.
~In aDnexing any community to our
own, the wishes of the community it is
proposed to annex should certainly be
taken into consideration, and there is
reason to believe that the native popula-
ton, the Kanakas, in Hawaii do not care
TO become citizens of the United States. |
Whether they desire the return of the
old native house which governed the |
islands for generations, or whether they
are satisfied with the government at
present in charge OF The islands is not |
particularly our concern. The matter |
10 be considered is the disposition of the |
people toward the United States, At |
least. there are no reasons to justify the
imposition of our rule upon an unwilling
people.
Probably if the islands were offered
up by the practically unanimous voice
ct the Hawaiian people, without any
possibilsty OF attending complications,
the sentiment in congress and out of it
would be in favor OF the acquisition, but
such is not the case. The Hawaiians
have made no offer and are believed to
be averse to the proposition, and the
protest of Japan has been interposed
and other difficulties loom up in the
near distance. The United States
should certainly run no risks, especially
when it is not plain that real advantages
are to b. secured. country that is
already big enough should not court
trouble in endeavoring to grow larger.
s'The Hawaiian question has not at
any time taken very deep hold on the
American people. There has come to
MS no loud call OF duty or honor At
present what may by styled the safe
side party express confidence in their
ability to defeat the treaty"
