WILCOX'S SCHEME
OF INDEPENDENCE

The Detroit Free Press says: There
is no doubt that an ambitious home
rule party in the newly annexed island
of Hawaii is exploiting itself and lead
ers by asking the United States gov
eminent to grant it independence SINH
request is clearly made as a political
stroke. 1t is a preposterous PROPOSE
ton on the face of it, and the event
will probably show that it springs from
small minority faction with some
Interior purpose to serve. 1t is anus
ing to see any part of the United
States having the territorial rights of
representation in Congress and the pro-
lection of all national laws asking for
independence, and more amusing when
it wishes to restrict that independence
by such limitations as are imposed
by the Plat amendment as a part of
the Cuban constitution.
Hawaii belongs today to the most in
dependent government on earth and
one best able to protect it in all that
makes for advancement, contentment,
and prosperity. Such were the rela-
tons established between this country
and Hawaii, by mutually of trade in
terests and rapprochement of the two
peoples, that Secretary of State Bayard
said ten years ago that it was only a
question of waiting for the apple to
fall The advance to the overthrow of
a monarchy vas so irresistible that
King Kalakaua had to grant a con-
stitution in 1887 and make it's provi-
sions more liberal two years later. But
opposition to even the form of personal
rulership grew until Queen Liliuoka-
lani saw the native government over
thrown while trying to placate her peo-
pie with still another and broader con-
stitution.
1t is fruitless for the purposes of
this discussion to follow the evolution
from what was a pagan monarchy a
few years ago to a territorial govern
ment under our Federal laws. 1t was
in the nature of manifest destiny act
ing through American invasion, per-
tives with American ideas and aspira-
tons The government came to us
with outstretched hands, begging to be
received. The chief opposition to the
annexation treaty was in this country.
Now that we have the island there will
be no thought of complying with such
request as that made, We took 1t
under our wing in the face OF yelled
threats from other countries. Now II
is regarded as Indispensable to the
protection OF our western coast 1t
has in Honolulu, like Hongkong, a
great commercial mart, protected by
Pearl Harbor, where a fortress strong
as Gibraltar is easily to be constructed.
All the Pacific cable lines must touch
there. and for commercial as we'll as
military reasons We must retain pos
session where We have an indefeasible
title. Hawaii could gain nothing by
independence under an American pro-
tectorate. and this nation would be
subjected to the dangers OF troubles
now impossible.

CONTINENTAL ENGLISH.

So-caled English signs on the con-
tinent of Europe cause much amuse-
ment, A good deal has been heard of
late about robberies on Italian rail-
ways, and now the companies warn
travellers by the following notice: Put
ting valuable into boxes will be con-
sidered abusive and Illegal fact" To
this is added: 1T is defended to throw
jugs out of the window" and ITO
avoid any disgraceful occurrence, it is
forbidden to put the head out of the
window" In this last there is a slight
confusion over the use of "disgrazia,"
an accident. In the bedrooms of a
hotel in Genoa instructions to visitors
are printed in several languages. The
English version runs: "Rina once for
the chambermaid twice for the waiter
three times for the ack-anapes." This
is appropriately followed by "Hit him
briskly on the head" which appears in
Frenck in the less violent form of
"POussez legerement lie bouton." with
"jack-anapes" the translator seems to
have got hold of "facquin," with it's
meaning of rascal, puppy; but though
derived from it, it is hardly the equi-
yalent of "facchino" porter.
