Practical men, however, men who
study results more than conditions, say
that the Parry Sound district will be-
come one of the mining centers OF the
continent. and that while the biologists
are correct in saying that minerals can
exist in the solid rocky formation for
which the district is noted only in
pockets, yet the pockets are so large and
so numerous as to make the industry a
very profitable one.

A CORRECT VIEW.

The Government takes this position,
it is now understood, in the matter Of
alien immigration: That the Act OF
Annexation terminated the relations of
Hawaii with all foreign countries, and
either repealed or nullified our munic-
ipal legislation on the subject
The Act also extended the present
treaties of all foreign States to these
Islands which at once placed the mat
ter of imm grafton in the hands of
the Federal Government in Washing
ton, and did not leave such vital
matter in the hands of the local author
tiles.
Even if this Interpretation of the law
could not be clearly justified, from a
purely legal standpoint, the action of
the Government in practically leaving
the matter to the disposition Of the
by the Federal laws, is wise and pol
itic
There can be no complaint in the
States against the local authorities, if
the Federal laws are followed by the
planters.
OF course the enemies of the Gov
eminent will expose the inconsistency
of the Government in insisting on en-
forcing our municipal laws last De-
cember and at this time changing its
views. But judges are constantly re-
versing their own decisions, on better
understandings, and statesmen change
their policies. He was the courageous
and consistent man who declared that
he could eat six dozen hard boiled
eggs at one meal, and in order to be
consistent, did eat them and immed-
lately furnished the corpse for a fun
eral
1t is the sovereign power in Wash
ingtOn that must settle the questions
about alien immi grafton, and it is for
tunate that the Government now takes
this view Of the matter.

short Of men to the number of 5000, in
spite of the fact that the regulars do
the best fighting and are the best cared
for. And while the regular army is
not filled, the application for the po-
sitiOns OF officers in the new volunteer
regiments are five times as many as
there are places TO be filed.
So the President wisely drifts and
studies the situation. and as he said
TO his friends, walks the floor in i'm
patient waiting for the final voice of
the people.
The Presidents attitude illustrates
the best evolution of democratic gov
eminent. The history of his time
will be that he executed the will of the
people, rather than his own will, so
far as he could ascertain what it was.

No CANDIDATES

The San Francisco Call recently pub
Iished an interview between one OF its
reporters and Mr. Sewall He was
asked about his own and Mr.. Dole's
position as candidates for the office OF
Governor, whenever it should be Gre
ated. Mr.. Sewall said, if the report Is
correct: Il really did not know that
either of us were after it,
If Mr.. Sewall did not know that he
was after the Governorship of this
Territory, his conduct presents a
strange case OF somnam bulism He Ger
tainly obtained a political machine,
with all the latest improvements on
it. and it was operated And he GER
tainly chose an organ, although it was
a "Hobsons choice" 1t was the best
he could do, as the goat said when he
chewed up tin cans for his supper. He
created the order of Coon-Cats, and de-
nounced Dole as a coward after Pres
ident Mckinley had thanked him for
the offer of Hawaii in the neutrality
affair.
IL this report in the Call is correct
he did all this unconsciously, and a
condition of somnambulism alone will
account for his ignorance of his own
conduct.
When those who support him as a
candidate understand, from this report,
that they have been the victims of the
innocent acts of one who walked in
his sleep and upon awakening did not
know that he had been a candidate,
they surely must feel that they have
been imposed upon, or played for
FOOLS" by a ghost They have ex-
pended much time and energy, how
ever valueless, and some cheap parti-
san literature in pushing the fortunes
of a somnambulst. And now they are
told that the one for whom they had
lavishly expended their mites knew
nothing of the sacrifice.
Mr.. Sewall's statement must be
rather depressing to his organ as it
has taken much pride in the fact that
Mr.. Sewall has declared himself to be
a candidate in a manly fashion,
while Mr.. Dole is mean enough 20
keep disgracefully silent
Perhaps Mr.. Sewall's remark indi-
Gates a rupture in the relations Of the
Coon-Cats. The failure Of the organ
to organize the Republican party in
these Islands may have convinced him
that his contract for it's support is not
a profitable venture.

PRESIDENT M'kINLEY In DOUBT,

The admirable and great qualities of
President Mckinley are shown in his
reply to one of the commissioners ap-
pointed by him to examine the condi
ton of the Philippine Islands. This
commissioner addressed the President
as follows:
MIR. President, it is only right that
we should understand each other
frankly If you have offered this ap-
pointment to me under the impression
that I look with favor upon our &C
QUESTION of the Philippines, you have
made a mistake. | am absolutely OPP
posed to expansion"
THAT makes no difference" ans
Wered the President. 4 chose you be-
cause l have great confidence in your
practical judgment If, when you have
looked the ground all over, you still
feel of the same mind, | want you to
say So
Then you want our advice even on
the fundamental question of the re-
IGNITION Of the Philippines"
Eyes. 1t is a question on which my
own opinion is still unsettled"
1t is the irreconcilable expansionists
that worry the President. They know
little of the burden of responsibility
because they have never been trusted
to bear it. In one breath they demand
that the President obey the will OF the
people. In the next breath, they ask
why don't the President have policy ?
When the President searches for light,
they shout: He has light enough
Every wild expansionist thinks that
every other man in the land ought TO
think as he himself thinks. These i'm
pressibles charge the President with
drifting about in search of a policy.
On the other hand, the President sees
that the people are drifting about be-
cause $4,000 900 OF voters cannot make
up their minds in day, nor with any
more unanimity than they can agree
upon the prominent political issues on
which they are divided. There IS not
a corner grocery store in the land IN
which men do not sit, of an evening,
and dictate policies to the President,
just as poor men and curb-Stone brok-
ers tell the rich men how to make
money But it takes time for the voices
of the thousands of corner groceries,
and the voices from the great man
sions, as we'll as from the novels. and
the farms to reach the White House.
And when they do reach it they are in
confusion, the President must find out
what they really mean.
Besides, Republican Congress slaps
the President in the face by cutting off
5000 sailors for the ships, and it fails
TO give him the army he asked for. Be-
sides this, he finds, after six months
of recruiting, his regular army is still
