Of water deprives both of all utility.
An Oriental american Territory be-
comes menace to the whole Nation
unless we in turn drive out the Asiatic
civilization which 1t holds and which
holds it, by reinstating our own.
This necessitates the creation of a.
plane on which a citizen population
may stand while making their fight
to regain the ground lost through the
workings of the natural law relating to
cheap labor.
On behalf of the American popuIa-
ton of Hawaiian integral unit CT the
American Commonwealth submit
that the most logical and practical
remedies are:
l. Amendment of the national laws
relative to immigration, making the
test of admission neither wealth nor
education. but eligibility for citizeh-
snip. Bar out absolutely races ineli-
gible for citizenship. Citizenship is
the one plane on which all Americans,
rich or poor, ignorant or educated,
white or black. Republican, Democrat
ana socialist, can unite. A Caucasian
America would be worth the price of
an Asiatic war We as nation can
not eat our cake and keep it. A sub
stratum, on the land, of any race in
eligible for ultimate citizenship except
through their offspring tends toward
the evolution of an oligarchic instead
of democratic form of government,
and constitutes reversion from the
Republican type.
2. Having once and for all time
barred out those ineligible for citizen
ship, create by the most legitimate
legislative methods an artificial plane
on which the American farmer, artizan
and mechanic can stand while making
his fight against competition with the
ra cially unfit. Extend the benefit of
the protective tariff to coffee sisal
vanilla, staples, fruits and vegetables,
and every raw product capable of pro-
duction in the United States.
There is bound to be broad Ori-
entail streak in the next generation be-
cause we can not throw out the ORR
eatal majority now within our borders.
But let us shut and bar the doors.
now, without delay and continue to fill
in from the bottom with European i'm
migration. Having closed the back
door against the racially unfit open
wide the front door and invite in our
brothers from the mainland. Open the
public lands to settlement. Give the
land outright to any man who will
agree to live within our borders and
help us in our fight for the develop.

ALAMEDA MAY Be
TAKEN OFF RUN

1t is possible, from news which arriv-
ed on the Alameda yesterday. that the
Oceanic steamer will only make two
more trips to this city, 1t is under
stood that there is to be meeting OF
the stockholders of the Oceanic Steam
ship co. in the near future and that
there are liable to be a great many
changes, The rumor is that the Ala
media will be taken OFF the Honolulu
run and another steamer used in her
place.
Many rumors In regard TO the Ocean
ic Company are ahoat In San Francisco
and II is said that II IL very likely that
the ships will be taken directly over
by John ID. Spreekels and Co., the
owners of the bonds, In that case
complete reorganization OF the line
may be expected.

(Translated for the Advertiser from
an article by DR.. Ernest Abt in the
Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung.)
A short report which comes from Aus
tralia, sent by DIR. Lark of the German
man.of-war Spree to the Anthro-
biological Society of Berlin, concerning
newly discovered race, came just in
time to be of great value in the discus
sions which followed the lectures of
,Wasmann in regard to the origin of
man.
The report does not show exactly
where this extraordinarily interesting
people have their home. They seem,
however, to belong to the Kennel Island
which is part of the Solomon group,
or perhaps to the Indispensable - reef.
On account of violent storm this
ship took refuge in quiet strait be-
tween Kennel island and the reef. And
there they found natives who, although
meeting with Europeans for the first
time, apparently showed no fear and
willingly came on board and allowed
themselves to be examined. They call
ed themselves Lickilicki which means
"eaters.' The name gives a good
imitation of the peculiar smacking
sound which the natives make in eat
ing raw fish which forms the chief
article of their food.
In reading the report of DIR. Lark we
can only give the name of human
amphibia to these strange people. They
live far more in the water than on
land. One glance at the formation
of their bodies shows us clearly that
nature has fashioned them most suit |
ably for such life. They have per,
fectly webbed hands and feet. On the
back Just above the hip there appears
muscular elevation supported by
gristle which has u strong resemblance
to the dorsal fin of shark. We have
long known that webs, even If not per
fectly formed, often appear as an i'm
perfectly developed foetus among the
lower races, as Australians and negroes
and not seldom among Europeans. In
deed the earliest formation of the arm
in the human embryo is a ileshy lobe
entirely without joints. DIR. Lark in
his reports, thus far received, does not
inform MS whether this dorsal fin, If we
may SO call it (many simllar mnlforma'
tions have been known, has any con
nection with the lower bones NJ the
spine. The teeth of the upper jaw
among these raw fish eaters IS framed
in very strange manner aud striking
ly resembles those Of the seal, The
two canine teeth are considerably
lengihened as among beasts of prey
aud even among Europeans, They
show by their form that their Original
purpose was, the tearing of flesh. The

ON PLEA OF INSANITY
PROBABLE DEFENSE TO BE MADE
FOR OTTO sEELHoRsT.

Otto Seelhorst, the slayer of Franciscus
Won Iterson, smiled this morning when his
brother julius SeelhorSt, who came from
Philadelphia last night, called upon him at
the District jail. This was noted as the
first time Seelhorst's countenance has I'M
dergone a change since he was placed I'M
der arrest. The brothers remained in con-
sultation some time. but the prisoner did
not display any concern over the serious
ness of his situation.
julius Seelhorst called upon Lieut.. Peck
at police headquarters last night and dis
cussed the case with the police official. He
said his brother suffered a sunstroke two
years ago and that he was sent to the
seashore to be treated. Last year ne sur
fered a recurrence of the trouble and was
sent to a sanitarium. The brothers view
is that the mind of the a>2 used man is
affected. He said he had not heard the
name of the dead man mentioned untii
after his brother had come here and Killed
him. and he was therefore unable 10 as
sign any motive for the killing.
Body to Be Cremated.
A number of friends of Won Iterson have
called at police headquarters and at the
morgue to inquire about the disposition or
his remains. No definite action had been
taken in the matter of the funeral. but 1t
is more than likely that the body will be
member Of the Philadelphia Cremation So
ciety, and he had certificate which en-
titles his body to be cremated: The GER
tificate, which was found in his trunk at
police headquarters is dated March, 1895,
and bears the names of F. Trautmann,
president, and Harry Scholder. secretary.
The headquarters of the society at the time
the certificate was issued were at az
Franklin street, Philadelphia 1t is prob
able the body will be held at the morgue
until the police or friends Of the deceased
can communicate with the officers CT the
society mentioned. Several letters found
among the effects of the dead man were
from his brother, who lives in Holland.
1t Is said the prisoners interests are to
be looked after by Attorney Early, who
lives at Martinsville, N. j. Should the
case ever reach the Criminal Court it is
thought a plea of insanity will made,
but persons who are familiar with the cir
cumstances believe an effort will be made
| in the near future to have Seelhorst COM
mitted to the asylum.

NO CAUSE FOR ANXIETY.
Restricting of Pennsylvania Avenue
Not to Interrupt Business.

Since the announcement that Pennsyl-
vania avenue is to be resurfaced from Az
street to 18th street northwest by the en-
gineer department of the District. and that
the work would be commenced in lLarch
and would not be completed before yhe lat
ter part of September. several letters have
been sent to the Commissioners asking for
particulars. The inquiries have been sent
by merchants along Pennsylvania avenue
who interpret the announcement to mean
that the avenue in front of their respective
stores will be torn up and in a practically
impossible condition for several months
while the improvements are being made.
Such a condition, they say. would injure
their business, and they doubt II the I'M
provement would be of enough benefit to
offset the financial loss.
The officials of the engineer department
stated today that there is no cause for any
worry on the part of the avenue mer-

of the street will be opened at one time,
