HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.
Some Embarrassment in Admins
tration of Affairs.

Some embarrassment in administra-
ton has occurred by reason of the pc
culiar status which the Hawaiian ISL
andS at present occupy under the joint
resolution of annexation approved July
{, 1898. While by that resolution the
Republic of Hawaii as an independent
nation was extinguished, its sovereign
ty destroyed and it's property and pos
sessions vested in the United States
yet a complete establishment for its
government under our system was not
effected. While the municipal laws of
the islands, not enacted for the fulfill
ment of treaties and not inconsistent
with the joint resolution or contrary
to the Constitution of the United States
or any of it's treaties, remain in force
yet these laws relate only to the social
and international affairs of the island,
and do not touch any subjects of i'm
portance which are of a broader ma
tional character.
For example, the Hawaiian Republic
was Invested of all title to the public
lands in the islands. and is not only
unable to dispose of lands to settlers
desiring to take up homesteads, but is
without power to give complete title in
cases where the lands have been en-
tered upon, leased or otherwise carry
with them the right to purchaser. lessee
or settler to have full title granted to
him upon compliance with the condi-
lions prescribed by law or by his par
ticular agreement of entry
Questions of doubt and difficulty have
also arisen with reference to the col
lection of tonnage tax on vessels COM
ing from Hawaiian ports; with refer
ence to the status of Chinese in the ISL
ands, their entrance and exit there
from; as to. patents and copyrights; as
to the register of vessels under the
navigation laws; as to the necessity of
holding elections in accordance with the
provisions of the Hawaiian statutes for
the choice of various officers, and as to
several other matters of detail touch
ing the interests both of the islands and
of the Federal Government.

NEEDED ,I,EGIsLATION.

NEEDED iLE(IlSLAI1OlN.
BY the resolution of annexation the
President was directed to appoint five
commissioners to recommend to Con-
gress such legislation concerning the
islands as they should deem necessary
or proper. The commissioners were
duly appointed, and after a careful in
vestigation and study of the system of
laws and government prevailing there,
they prepared bill to provide a gov
eminent under 1.-THE Territory of Ha-
wall The report of the commission
with the bill which they prepared was
transmitted by me to Congress on De-
cember g. 1893, but the bill still awaits
final action.
The people of these islands are en-
titled to the benefits and privileges Of
our legislation, but in the absence of
any act of Congress providing for Fed
eral Courts in the islands, and for a
procedure by which appeals, writs of
error and other judicial proceedings
necessary for the enforcement of civil
rights prosecuted, they are powerless to
secure the enforcement by the judg
ment of the courts of the United States.
1t is manifold important, therefore,
that an Act shall be passed as
speedily as possible erecting these ISL
ands into a judicial district, providing
for the appointment of judge and
other proper officials and methods of
procedure in appellate proceedings, and
that the government of this newly &C
quired territory under the Federal Con-
stitution shall be fully defined ard

CLOSING REMARKS.
Lynchings Must Not be Tolerated
in United States.


The love of law and sense, obedience
and submission to the lawfully con-
stituted judicial tribunals are en-
bedded in the hearts of our people, and
any violations of these sentiments and
disregard of their obligations justly
arouse public condemnation. The guar
antees of life, liberty and of civil rights
should be faithfully upheld; the right
of trial by jury respected and defended.
The rule of the courts should assure
the public of the prompt trial of thoss
charged with criminal offenses, and up
esl conviction the punishment should
be commensurate with the enormity Of
the crime.
Those who disregard law and the
public peace, and, unwilling to await
the Judgment of court and jury, con-
stitute themselves Judges and execu-
TONERS, should not escape the. severest
penalties of their crimes.
LYNCHINGS MUST NOT BE Toll
GRATED.
What I said in my inaugural address
of March 4, 1891 1 now repeat: The
constituted authorities must be cheer
fully and vigorously upheld. Lynchings
must not be tolerated in a great and
civilized country like the United States.
Courts, not mobs, must execute the PEN
alties of the laws. The preservation OF
public order the right of discussion,
the orderly administration of justice
must continue forever the rock of safe
ty upon which our national security
rests"

APPLIES TO PORTO RICO.
Same Legislation Needed as for
Alaska Territory.

1 recommend that legislation to the
same end be had with reference to the
government of Porto Rico The time is
ripe for the adoption of temporary
form of government for this island; and
many suggestions made with reference
to Alaska are applicable also to Porto
Rico.
The system of civil Jurisprudence now
adopted by the people of this, island is
described by competent lawyers who
are familiar with it, as thoroughly mod
ern and scientific, SO far as it relates
to matters of internal business, trade,
production and social and private right
in general. The cities of the island are
governed under charters which prob
ably require very little or no change.
So that with relation to matters of local
concern and private right, it is not
probable that much if any legislation
is desirable; but with reference to pub
lie administration and the relations of

Too Realistic.

/ Talking bout scalpers' tickets" said
an old conductor last night, the queer
est thing l know in that line happened
when l was working for the Missouri
Pacific, back in the eighties. My run
was between Kansas City and ST. Louis,
and one morning as / was pulling out
on my eastbound trip a fellow gave me
an old three day excursion ticket that
expired at least six months before. 1
told him it was no good and after con-
siderable growing he handed me some
small silver. That will carry me to
-, he said, naming a little way sta
ton, and between times I'll think it
over Very we'll, I replied, but 1 give
you notice right now that I won't carry
you a foot further unless you put up the
money He made no answer and began
carefully studying his ticket. When we
got to the station I was by his side
Well, SIR I said, what do you intend
to do?' I intend to ride on this ticket
he said. I've read it and it is perfectly
good, he snarled. I'm not going to argue
any more about that said I, you pay
your fare quick or get off, Not unless
you're the best man. he said, looking
ugly. Well, threw him off, but it was
tough job. He fought like a wildcat
and came near licking both me and the
brakeman.
The station where this happened was
in the heart of a wild moonshine dis
tr1ct, and the crowd that collected
sympathized with the passenger. l ex-
pected to hear from the fellow almost at
once, but l didn't, and the affair soon
passed out of my mind, Six months
later / happened to be in the general
off1ceS when to my great surprise 1 saw
him coming out of the managers pri-
vate room. Who is that man?' I
asked a clerk. He laughed Why.
don't you know him.? he said. He's
- and he named detective who had
lately worked up the evidence in big

hood of the station where our row
occurred. Then I understood You see.
he wanted some good excuse for going
into the settlement, and there was no
better role than that of a poor man
just elected from a train by a brutal
conductor. He had his scalpers ticket
to show he had just put up a genuine
fight, and claimed to be dead broke.
All that appealed to the natives. and thew
took him in at once. The result was
that he stayed there a month and pick
ed up all the evidence he wanted. 1t
was a shrewd scheme, but 1 think he

from anybody. The fighters made a

either Mr. Birdsall or Mr. Goodlow.
but day or two later when things
had quieted down, Miss White sent
for me. She had a real motherly smile
on her face as she gave me her hand
and began:
