Interest in the annexation of Hawaii is
not likely to wane. The former Queen,
Lliouka lani, is in Washington, where there
is also the delegation of four Iawa 'ians
representing political organ;Zat:ocs op-
posed TO annexation. And now new
and greater interest is given by the fact
that The President of the Republic Of
hawaii has arrived in this county, on
IN way to Washington, where he is ex-
pected at the close of the present week.
Just five years ago-January 1.-THE
Monarchy passed from the Hawaiian
Islands, and in its place arose the Republic.
BY a strange coincidence, on this ami
versary the last ruler of the kingdom and
the first President Of the Republic are in
the United States, each looking 10 the
Government at Washington for final set
Element of the vital question.
Sanford b. Dole is the central figure in
the Government of Hawaii. He would
fill a large place even if he were not Presi-
dent of the Republic. His ability, breadth
of character and learning, and his private
and public life make him the highest type
of the American blood Hawaiian.
Mr.. Dole was born in Honolulu and is
SO years old. His parents were carly mis-

the second President of the College.

Republic was born was built of coral rock

Returning to Hawaii, Mr.. Dole made his
home on the Islands, identified himself
with the Hawaiian people, and was always
active IN Hawaiian politics, serving in the

Savannah, Feb. 10.--A round million
bales of cotton for the season thus far
was recorded at the Cotton Exchange to-
day. Its an indication that the total re-
ceipts at Savannah will be larger than
any previous season. The million mark
was reached a month earlier than in any
previous year. If the movement should
keep up in the same volume as 1t has
done ill the past month, the receipts will
in very short time, equal the entire re-
ceipts of the season of 1SSJ-91 which was
the largest in the past history of the port.
The local market was steady, with light
sales at unchanged quotations. The spir-
its turpentine market was weaker, as
buyers were bidding a cent below the Off
cial quotation, but no sales were report
ed at the lower price. The rosin market
was also quiet and no sales were report
ed. In the wholesale markets smoked
