HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.

Comments Of tho Japanoso Press ontho Blatter

Continued from Tuesday.)

Tho history of Hawaii's relationswith tho United States is reviewedin detail by tho Yomiuri Shimbun,from 1876 to 1893, tho conclusionreached being that annexation hasboon a kind of plank in the plat-form of tho Republican party where-as it has been uniformly opposed bytho.Demoorats. That it is contraryto tho American unwritten constitu-tion, thero can bo no doubt. Nochain of reasoning, however extrava-gant, can connect with tho Americancontinent a group of islands lyingtwo thousand miles distant in thewide Pacific. Wore such an appli-

cation of tho Monroe doctrine justi-fiable, no part of Asia would be be-

yond the sphere of American in-

fluence. So far as Japan is concern-ed she has to look beyond tho anne-xation question, which, as has beonshown, is most unlikely to bo carriedfarther than the conclusion of anabortive treaty. She has to considerthe true inwardness of tho annexa-tion problem and the dangers bywhich Hawaii is menaced. Theagitation for annexation owes itsmomentary force to the fact thatthe McKinley cabinet, in pursuanceof its protective policy, has refusedto renow the reciprocity treaty withHawaii, and is about to lovy an im-

port duty of 1.75 cents per poundupon raw sugar from Hawaii. Un-

der such circumstances it is plainthat Hawaiian sugar would be total-ly excluded from tho Americanmarket, and it is in view of thatimminent contingency, a contingency fatal to the prosperity, if notto the Tory oxittqneo, of tho sugarindustry in Hawaii, that the advisa-

bility of getting the islands includedamong tho American dominions hasforced itself upon the attention ofthe Hawaiians.

The Tokyo Shimbun (Opposition)sees no reason to anticipate anyserious objection on tho part of thoSeuato. Has Count Okuma, uponwhom rests tho responsibility ofmanaging the country's foreignaffairs, paid duo attention to thehistory of this problem! Has heappreciated that, under the presi-

dency of McKinley, reasons in favorof annexation would bocomo im-

perative? If he did recognize thefacts of tho past and the proipeatsof the future, why has ho failed toadopt toward tho United Statessuoh an attitude as would havepostponed annexation until Japan'sdispute with Hawaii had been set-

tled and her material interests safe-guarded? Count Okuma, by adop-

tion of a "strong policy" towardHawaii has allowed this empire tobo made tho tool of a handful ofintriguers in a petty little island,has lowered the prestige that Japanwon so hardly in tho war with Chinaand has sacrificed his country'smaterial interests.

The Chuo Shimbun (NationalUnionist organ) recalls tho fact thatCount Okuma was among theseverest critics of the Ito cabinot ontho occasion of the Liaotuug affair,and declares that Count Okuma hasnow been tho moans of subjectingtho country to a like humiliation.Tho Chuo does not expoct that thoUnited States Senato will indoieetho treaty concluded by PresidentMcKiuloy, but it strongly recom-

mends Count Okuma to adopt thocourse which he ought not to havenoglected hitherto, namely, to placohimself in communication withEngland and Germany, whichpowers are both opposed to annexation, and to induco them to ad-

dress remoustranceB to the govern-

ment in Washington.Tho Hoohi Shimbun regards this

inoident aB an example of what maybe called "peaceful aggression."

I Amorioa hoi not prooeoded to pos

sess horsolf of Hawaii by force ofarms, but has resorted to the ex-

pedient of sending thither a hand-ful of adventurers, who, thoughnumerically thoy amount to only asmall fraction of tho population,havo usurped a position that appar-ently entitled them to speak for thowholo, and are now concluding anarrangomont for tho final disponalof territory that does not belong tothem, over which thoy have no rightof control, and against the wishesof whose inhabitants they are run-ning countor.

The Eokumin Shimbun concludesthat Hawaii's contumelious attitudetoward Japan's juBt claims was duoto tho conviction that she would beablo to shift her responsibilities tothe shoulders of tho United States,her annexation by the latter beingimminent. It should not bn diff-icult to prevont the carrying out ofthe project, Japan, throughout thewhole of this complication, hastreated Hawaii with the utmostcourtesy and consideration, neverallowing the slightest evidence ofsuperior strength to obtrude itself.But Hawaii has rejected Japan'sjust demands in the briefest mauner,and has shown no disposition toatone for tho wrongs suffered byJapanese subjects. The intentionof tho Honolulu statesmen has beento back out of tho breach, aud takeshelter under America's protection.Hence the consequence of annexa-tion will be that Japan's claims willremain unsatisfied, that tho emigra-tion of her people to Hawaii will bestopped, and that her subjects whoaro already settled there, will bedriven out.

The ""Nippon says that Japanwould not take a present of Hawaiiwere the little islands with theirsugar plantations offered to her.None the less, her interests requirethat she should oppose their annex-ation by America, since, undor Am-erican administration, the profitablemarket that they offer for her laborwould be completely closed.

THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION.

Up to date tho Japaneso have nottaken tho Hawaiian Islauds, nnrhave thoy landud a foreo of soldiersdiBguisod ns coolies, nor has anyuprising taken place among the mennow here. Our Custom House is

yet in the hands of Iluwaiiau officialsand the officers of the Naniwa con-lin- o

their hostility to exchangingcivilities with their colleagues onboard tho U. 5. ships and with thepeople ashore whom, according totho annexation press, they intend todorour.

Tho difficulties between the Ha-

waiian and Japanese Governmentsare being discussed botwoea theirrespective foreign offices accordingto usual diplomatic methods andwill in proper time be settled peace-

fully, if tho Dole administration canrafrain for once from putting itshoof in it. The Japaneso scare hassimply been used by tho annexationolique to gain sympathy in theUnited States and stir.up a feelingamong those indifferent to the Ha-

waiian question, that somethingmust be done to prevent tho ag-

grandisement of tho JapaneEO Em-

pire. It is of course to be expectedthat jingoes like Minister Sewallaud Admiral Beardsleo aro ready towelcomo and promote tho Japaneseearo fako. In the meantime the

planters are importuning the Gov-

ernment for more Japanoso oheaplaborers. The only thing tho plant-ers fear is decreased dividends.

Tho islands are now threatenedwith an invasion of senators amongwhom are Morgan, Quay and pos-

sibly Pettigrew and Oannou. Sen-

ator Morgan is expected here on tho8th of Soptember. When tho

heard about his possible ar-

rival, they discussed the advisabilityof holding a mass meeting while thesonator is bore, aud thus prove tohim that the Hawaiian nation as awhole is absolutely opposed to an-

nexation in any form, and even pre-

fer their independence with thoDolo oligarohy to tho loss of theirnationality and the autonomy oftheir country.. Not boing quiteposted in American politics, theyinnocently believe that tho visitingsenators would not go back toWashington and state on tho floorof tho Souato, that "noarly all Ha-waiia-

are now in favor of annexa-

tion," when the contrary was prov-

ed by an ocular demonstration,

Their plans in regard to tho hold-

ing of meetings reached the ears ofthe Government and caused con-

siderable consternation in tho annex-

ation camp. Tho Government darednot forbid a meeting of pnaoofulcitizens. Such, a step would notalono bn contrary to thoir own con-

stitution, a fact that wouldn't worrythem very much, but it would boproven to oreat& a bad impressionamong tho peoplo of tho UnitedStates, and cause suspicion amongthe wavering senators. But to allow

,

oven Senator Morgan to see forhimsolf that tho emiesaries of theHawaiian Government in Washing-ton have boon piling falsehood uponfalsehood in regard to tho senti-mout- a

of tho IJawaiiaus would neverdo. It would bo too daugorous al-

together nnd might lead to mostembnrrasing denouements,

Tho wise men mot together todevise ways and means to got outof tho hole. A bright idea occurredto one of them. "Let us uso theSugar Trust bugaboo" was tho cry,and tho brilliant idea was instantlyput into effect. Tho official annex-

ation organ appeared tho next d.ywith a fake despatch announcingthat tho Trust through ClausSpreckels had sent one million dol-

lars (51,000,000) to Hawaii to bo

used in an campaignand to pay all oiponoes of massmeetings etc, duriug the expectedvisit of the senators. Editoriallythe organ soriously discussed thomatter aud stated repoatndly, thata spoutHueouB meeting of Hawaiianshostile to annexation would havobeen entitled to rospect aud ovenconsideration, but Sugar Trustbought enthusiasm would have' nomore effect' than a breath on auarmor clad ship.

No one of courso believed in thofake. Tho P. O. Advertiser, the or-

gan of the missionaries, did not evonrepoat tho--Htor- y or give it thoslightest notice. The idea thatGlaus Sprockets should sendS1000 or $1,000,000 to Hawaii tobuy tho natives to demonstrateagainst annexation is so utterly ab-

surd that tho fake, which of coursoby this mail will bo sent as straightgoods to the American jingo press,foil very flat and was received withcontempt and ridicule, eveu by themost ardent supporters of Mr. Dolo.

What, by the way, has beoome ofthese supporters of the oligarchy?At the end of September a geueralelection of Representatives will takeplace. On the last day of June theregistrars of election closed theirbooks. The result showed that only22G7 names wero registered on thewhole group, aud that in the capi-

tal onlyS16 citizens desire to vote.The significance of these figures caube understood when it is remember-ed that at the election in 1887, thoyear in which tho missionaries byrevolution gained control of tho gov-

ernment, 14,083 voters registered.Then Hawaii had" a population of80,878 against 109,020 in 1897.

Now tho official organs are busydiscussing what the reason is for.this very poor showing, and they aroadvancing tho most absurd aqd idi-

otic theories. The true roason isthat tho Hawaiians will have nothingto do with the oligarchy, and thatthey firmly refuse to take the pre-

scribed oath to tho ropublio; thatthe Portuguo3e, a large quota of tho.voters, are dissatisfied by findingthemselves cast aside and driven totho wall by the cheap Asiatic coolies,with whom evon the frugal Portu-guese cannot compote. They blame,and rightly, too, tho Governmentfor the" unlimitod influx of Asiatics,nnd they are hostile and bitteragainst Mr. Dole's alleged republic;and finally that tho ranks of the"foreign" opposition havo beenswelled by a largo number of formersupporters of tho Government, menwho shouldered guns iu 1893 and1895, and as soon as convenient worethrown over to mako room for somemember of the "family compact" orfor some newcomer with ony kindof a mysterious pull. But fh"e Gov-

ernment feels oxtrbmely mortified,that the Congress and people of thoUnited States should seo that only2000 of its supporters, of whom amajority are office-- holdors, considerit worth their trouble to place them-

selves on rocord as voters underDole's oligarohy.

Tho Dolo republic has many wor-

ries, indeed, and when in their lonelyohambers many of tho gentlemenwho hurrahed at tho overturn oftho monarchy wish that thoy hadloft well enough alone instead of

jumping from tho frying pan intotho firo. Tho labor question !b prob-ably the moBt troublesome problemwith which tho administration iswrestling. "Wo must and will havocheap labor, and plenty of it," saythe planters. And it is the planterswho hold the purso strings, Cheplauters who don't earo what race,or color, or moral standing his slavehas as long as ho is cheap. "Alasl"sighs Dole, "I can't givo you Chi-nese, beoauso then wo might not bounnnvadt T stfirrv rrti r!si ts Tavahanniiao wn lira nfrnirl rt fWnm 4evM

a German or a niggerl" And a ship;load of Polish, Galitziau aud Aus-

trian lborrs, well sprinkled withsocialists, have arrivod, and a distantgrowl is already heard from thoplantations whero thoy work. An-

other valuable addition to oursomewhat mixed population I Audby the steamer to-da- y goos an orderfor a number of niggers. Whenthoy arrive,,which wo fervently hopothey will not, the pear is ripe, andHawaii it fit indeed lo bo annexed.

One thing is suro. The Hawaiianswill never voluntarily see their coun-try under the American flag. Apeuplo having for years govornedthemselves under a constitutionalmonarchy, feel that they have aright to be heard, when tho futuredestiny of thoir country aud nation-ality is at stake. If tho UnitodStates Government, listening to asmall band of American?, whowrongfully usurped tho governmentof a friendly nation, deprive theHawaiian people of thoir country,it is not annexation; it is a conquestover tho weak by ono of tho strongestpowers on the earth, and equal inmoral wrong to any of the civiliz-ation movements of "piratical"Great Britain.

THE KLONDYKE.

A Wavnintr to Goldssekera FromBritish Ooloninl Oillco.

Parties hero who are thluking ofgoing to the Klondjko will do wellto read tho following warning issuedfrom the Immigration Departmentof tho British Colonial Oillco:

The gold discoveries on tho Klon-

djko River aro situated in a diatantaud desolate rigion, Trustworthyroporta stato that tho district is ex-

tremely rich in gold. Tho miningoarriod ou is placer mining, butgold-boaiin- g quartz has alto beenfound in places. Regulations gov-

erning placer mining there aro thoseof May 21, 1897, and may bo seen atthis ofllco. Tho wintor ia vory severeand lasts from October to the endof May, tho thermometer going downto as much as SOdeg. and COdeg, be-

low zero. During this time work is

only possible to a limited extent,rrhero firewood is available to thawthe

FROZEN GRAVEL

and make it ready to be washed assoon as tho flow of water in theBpriug will permit. Tho KlondjkoRivor falls into tho Yukon, in thoNorth-wes- t territories of Canada,about 100 miles from tho frontierbetween Canada aud Alaska. Theretwo routes to it: (1st.) By thesteamer Quebec, and thence by theCanadian Pacifio Railway to Vic-

toria or Vancouver (fiftoen days, low-

est faro 15, 18?, 9d,), thence bysteamer to the mouth of the Yukou,in Alaska, which is not open tillabout July 1, and thenco up theYukou for 1,800 miles, taking 18 to20 days. This routo is only openfrom about June to September, audthe total timo taken from Englandto tho Klondjko would be six toeight weeks at least. (2nd.) Bysteamer from Victoria or Vancouver,by Juneau, to tho head of the LynnCanal (about 1,000 miles from Vic-

toria), thence by tho Ghilcoot Pass,or the White Pass, (two days), andthe Lakes, to the Lewes, or headwaters of the Yukon River, andthrough the White House Rapids,thenco down the Yukon, which isnavigable by steamers, to the Klon-djko. Baggago and provisions canbe taken by horses or Indian carriersacross the Chilcoot or White Pass,and canoes or boats must be pro-

cured or built for the water part oftho journoy. This routo is onlypracticable from Juno to Septombor,when the water is clear of ice, andwould take five or six weeks fromEngland. The abovo facts showthat both

JOURNEIS ARE LONO AND EXPENSIVE

and can only be undertaken duringtho summer after the ice has disap-peared. Provisions are very scarceand dear, if procurable at all. It istoo Into for any one to start now,and all persons are strongly warnedagainst attempting it. Under themost, favorablo conditions, and sup-

posing that steamboats, oanoes, andfood supplies were all ready andavailable, the journey would roachthe gold-diggin- just as winter wasclosing in and mining was, to a greatextent, stopped. Persons going totho diggings should leave here nextApril, so as to reach Vanconvor orVictoria in" timo to start for thoNorth as soon as the routes andrivers aro open. Tho journeys,though not exactly dangerous, arodifficult aud expensive, and no onoshould think of going thoro who isnot strong and well supplied withmoney for tho journey and for food.Nor should any ono go who has notsomo considerable experience inprospecting and in roughing it inwindy and uiiBottlod oountrios, Allothers aro strongly warned againstgoing thnro.

Tho Polar Balloon Expedition.

News has reached Tromso fromSpitzbergen that Horr Androe as-

cended in his balloon, the Eagle,from Danes Island on tho afternoonof Sunday, July 11th. Tho meteoro-logical conditions were favorablo.Herr Androo 1b accompanied by Dr.Strindberg and tho Engineer HerrFraonokoll, Tho threo members oftho expedition wero porfeotly com-poiu- d

on their departure, They de

clared that all possible orontualiticshad bcon forpseen, so that nothingcould surprise them. Southerly orsouth wosterly winds have boeu provailing over Spitzbergen, Norway,and tho ioo regions. It is theroforoassumed that Herr Audreo aud hisballoon went in tho diroction ofEastern Siberia.

Tho correspondent of tho Stock-

holm Aftonbladet says, that theascont was successfully performedamid cheers. In spito of the light-ness of the wind tho balloon rosequickly about 600ft., but was thenforced down again near to the aur-fac- o

of the soa. It then ascendedonce more, after some bags of sandhad been thrown out, and was bornoby a fresh southerly wind in anortherly direction. Tho weatherwas clear and the Eagle was visiblefor an hour. The dirootion wasnorth-north-esa- t. Tho ascont madoa majestio impression.

Tho distance direct from DanesIsland to tho North Pole is 617

miles, and the distance from thePolo to tho nearest known con-

tinental terra firma on the other sideis about aB great.

A telogram from Hamburg says,it has now been ascertained that therecently caught pigoon which hadtho word "Nordpol" and a numberstamped on tho wings belonged tothe Altona Carrior Pigoou Club.Four of the club's pigeons immedi-ately after starting on tho 18th ofJuly, were picked up by a Britishsteamer off Heligoland.

Reuter's agency loams on inquiryin well-inform- quarters that noanxiety is yet felt among geo-

graphers aud Arotio oxperts regard-ing the safety of Herr Androo andhis companions. An eminent geo-grap- er

said last week: "If we donot hear by pigeon and if Androesucceeds in getting across to theNorth American or Siberian coasts,wo cannot expects news for somedays yet. Tho oxpodition is, ofcourse, moro risky than Nanseu's,but, at tho same time, if tho balloonoamo to grief its occupants wouldbe no worse off than Nansen wasafter leaving the Fram. Androo andhis companions are men of the samecalibro as Nansen and his

Androe has studied overy pos-

sible difficulty, and all geographershave the greatest confidence in hisability. Tho one uncertainty is thowind. If tho balloon oamo to griefin the Arotio Ocean tho oxplorerswould simply take to their boatsand, like tho JeanneUo oxpodition,would make for the Siberian coast.It was quite expected that the ex-

pedition would first bo heard ofalong tho Siberian or Americancoasts, and arrangements were madeaccordingly. The Royal Geographical Society and other bodies andGovernments issued oiroulars in thevarious languages all ovor the landsto the north, with pictures of theballoon, so that the natives mightnot bo surprised and might not,among other things, fire at it. Everyplaoe that could bo reached wassupplied. The Cauadian Govern-ment distributed suoh informationall over Northorn Canada, as did theUnited States Government in Alaska.With such an expedition predictionsare not of much value, but at pre-sent their is certainly no cause foralarm,"

Captain Lehmann, of the Dutchsteamer Dordrecht, writeH fromGrimsby to tho New RotterdamGazette that, in tho Whito Sea, onJuly 17th, ho saw floating on thewater a strange object, which couldnot bo eithor a ship or a dead whale,and resembled, ho oonsiderod, thoform of a balloon. The Times,
