EXTENSION or AMERICAN Laws.

The pessimistic view which the
official organ takes OF Hawaii's
prospects in Congress, and posi-
bility of Hawaii being classed un-
der the probable colonial policy
again brings into prominence the
short sighted policy of the COVE
eminent organ.
Not many months ago the organ
of the government was pattine
the Chamber of Commerce and
Planters Association on the back
for petitioning the commissioner a
delay in the extension OF Amer
lean shipping and tariff laws to
Hawaii. Now it is raising the fear
ful cry that legislative delay in
Washington is full of dangers and
the first thing Hawaii knows il
will be colony of the United
States with duties charged upon
its products entering the United
States.
When the memorials Of the
Chamber of Commerce were fret
made public, the BULLETIN char
acterized the requests made fol
delays as unfortunate. The stu
alton in Washington shows The
BULLETIN was right.
The official organ has now sud
denly awaked to the realization
that the official campaign to delay

an exhibition of the Simon pure
selfishness of the official ring. Ii
there had been an honest desire to
follow American precedents and
receive annexation in the liberal
spirit in which it was extended by
the American people, the officials
would have made note of the fact
that in annexing new territory the
United States has always been
prompt to extend American laws
t. that territory.
Alaska was purchased by
treaty March 80, 1867; on
July 16, 1868, bill passed the
House extending shipping and
tariff laws to Alaska end estab-
fishing collection districts; on
July rs, 1868 the bill passed the
Senate and on July ~ it became a
law. Texas was annexed by joint
resolution March l, 1915, and
Dec. 20, lS45, American laws were
extended over that new territory.
Thus it will be seen that the
Hawaiian government has labored
for delay in legislation that has
never happened in any territory
taken by the United States. 1t
has sought to upset presidents,
has played directly into the hands
of its enemy the beet sugar men,
and now fearing the result, OF its
selfish and narrow minded work
makes pessimistic filings at the
integrity of the United States
Congress. When the time arrived
for American laws to be extended
promptly as in the case of Alaska
aud Texas, the United States
found this government looking
around for some means of delay.
In its attempt to throw the res
possibility for the possibility of
delay upon United States Con-
gressmen unduly influenced by
the beet sugar producers, the Off
cial organ forecasts a dark and
formidable outlook that is un war
ranted and demonstrates a lack of
confidence in the acts and good
will of President Mckinley. Had
the administration contemplated a
colonial government for Hawaii,
it would never have placed the
Hawaiian territorial bill before
Congress, and having given this
administration endorsement of the
territorial plan, the chances are
that the President would veto a
colonial measure.
We do not believe that there is
just cause for the business men to
quake with fear over the probabi-
lities of Hawaii being held off as
a colony, but believe they will do
we'll to withdraw any and all op.
position to the administration
policy, and not stand in with the
beet sugar men--which practi-
cally though perhaps not inten-
tionally is now being done-in sp-
position to the American policy
outlined by Mckinley through
the report of the Commission.

the fact that to one months service
