HE WRITES TO SENATOR MORGAN
ON STRAGETIC POSITION.
Points Out the Value of the Islands
in the Case of Dismemberment of
China.

WASHINGTON, December 3O.-Col.
Charles I. Eagan, assistant commissa-
ry general of subsistence of the army,
who has been resident of the Pacific
Coast for twenty-five years, has writ
ten letter to Senator Morgan, advo-
eating the annexation of the Hawaiian
Islands, which will be submitted by
the Alabama Senator to the Senate,
when he discusses annexation.
Col. Eagan after referring to the fact
that Hawaiian trade was the lifeblood
to San Francisco during the recent
years of depression says that the claim
that annexation will injure beet sugar
growers is absolutely false, as the
United States will always need more
cane sugar than Hawaii produces.
He draws attention to the fact that
the temperature is lower in Hawaii
than in the hot valleys of California,
and, quoting from the San Francisco
Chronicle of December 18th, shows
that there are enormous possibilities
for the country outside of cane pro-
duction, when once it comes under the
American flag. He declares that wa
ges for white labor are higher than in
this country. All other nations. he re-
marks, have their eyes on Hawaii. and
its value as an outpost cannot be over
estimated
AS to the value of the Islands in the
case of war, and especially as the dis
memberment of China seems to- be in
sight. which might place an enemy on
the other side of the Pacific from us.
he says: 1--WE should make IA Gibral-
tar of Hawaii. We would use Hawaii
for fleets, for refuge, retitting and for
supplies, and the possession of Hawaii
would be an all important and power
full means of preventing war.
Pearl Harbor can be made impreg-
nable at comparatively small cost,
and thus quarrelsome and ambitious
nations now attaining permanent foot
holds on the Asiatic coast, near our
very doors, will be, by our possession
of Hawaii, served with notice of our
strength, and they will. because there

He concludes thus: "This is the gol-
den opportunity to annex these Is
lands, to extend to our own people
the protection for life. and property, n
which goes with the flag, which they
so earnestly want and ask for: to pre-
vent Hawaii's being constrained to go
to some other nation for annexation,
and thereby becoming "A menace to us

ton is required for this At
the present rate of increase of popula-
tion the time is short before every por-
ton of the United States will be
crowded with those seeking new
places to build up homes. The arid
regions can be made capable of fur
nishing homes for man millions IF

point to make plain what may be ex-
pected through irrigation by showing
on the ground what 1t is possible to do
under this system of agriculture. Butte
