Dewet only last week. Dewet has an

Senator paitf proposed amendment
20 the Cuiom bl. emboiy ono super
nuiy and ONE injustice
The supernully o. that amendment
which continues The existing customs
between the United States and Hawaii
until further legislation by Congress.
Senator P.a,t ough, 20 know that this
matter was covered by the Newiands
resolutions which achieved precisely
what he now proposes to seek
The injustice is in the amendment
striking out the provision for the &C.
ton Of a delegate 20 Congress. Hawaii
offered Itself to the Union In fun con-
fdence that IL would have representa-
tive government. In sharing the
responsibilities of the nation, as It Is
already dong in some measure, 1t
properly asks for a voice in fixing those
responsibilities. The United States has
stopped Chinese immigration here and
the sale of our public lands, while bills
are pending to extend other forms OF
Federal Jurisdiction. The Cullom bill
Itself puts the United States officially
in full possession. Would Senator
Plat in view of all this deny Hawaii
the right to say word in its own be-
hall at Washington when its inter-
ests may be imperilled? If so his ideas
ON the subject of taxation without rep
resentation differ widely from those of
the founders of the republic.
We cannot believe that the Platt
amendments will be accepted. They
are purely mischievous and are salts
factory to nobody except the anti-ex-
pansion fanatics and the sugar trust.

ON THE 1UGELA.

The capture of Spion Kop by General
Warren's forces is mildly encouraging
but not important. Spion Kop, high
point in rocky plateau eight miles
eastward of the Boer positions on the
Tugela, Is little more than an outpost
That the Beers did not value it highly
is shown by the small garrison they
kept there; that its capture by the
British has made no decisive change
in the general situation is shown by
the fact that the Beers still hold their
main lines of defence, from which Bull
ier's army. after tremendous fighting,
were three times hurled.
This force of General Warren's is
the one. IL 1000 strong. that crossed the
Tugela several miles up before the
time of Buffers advance and undertook
TO reach the Transvaal army in flank.
II is now in position to cooperate in
further advance movements unless it
should be surprised and annihilated by
an overwhelming force. There is more
or less peril of this and until further
advices are had the impression that the
Beers scampered from Spion Kop for
purpose, answers as we'll as any
other.
There is, too, some room to suspect
that Warren was wanted to join in the
grand assault, but did not arrive on
the field in time. If so, Buffers cam
paign will come in for some very sharp
criticism apart from that which at
taches to his failure to carry fortified
points.
From all the news that can be gath
cred, we still believe that the Beers
have made themselves impregnable in
the Tugela mountains to any force
General Butler can now bring against
them. One good marksman intrenched
is worth five ordinary marksmen out
side the breastworks. That is partly
because u his craftsmanship, partly
because. in his shelter, he is less ner-
yous than the advancing enemy, and
partly because the fatigue and excite
nent of the latter reacts upon often
sive fighting efficiency. So If $4,000
Beers are waiting under cover at Tu-
geia neither 10000 nor $4,000 nor even
100000 Britishers, brave though they
may be. can feel at all sure of dslodg-
ing them.
