THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION OF
A SLAVE COUNTRY.
Tlie government of Hawaii Is making
ready to apply early to Mr. McKinley's
administration to carry out the annexa-
tion policy inaugurated by Mr. Harrison's
administration and nipped in the bud by
Mr. Cleveland's administration.
President Dole has dispatched his at
toruey geuerul to Washington author
l7A to arrange terms with Mr. McKin
ley for the annexation of the Sandwich
Island to the United States. The repub-
Mean party are committed to the plan of
annexation and we supiswe will be made
more earnest in the effort on account of
their general opposition to the policy of
a democratic administration. We sup
pose that it is useless "to kick ngtiinst
the pricks" but in addition to the nu
inerous reasons The Stutesiniin has here-
tofore given difference in character and
want of homogeuity of the population
of that country and the people of this
we are reminded of another serious ob
jection that should animate the repulill
can puny to opposp annexation if tliey
ure true to their historic traditions
In a recent number of the Evening
Bulletin n daily piier published in Hon
olula we notice an effort to induce tin
sugar planters of the inland to abolish
the contract labor system and adopt
what it's advocates term "a profit shar-
ing system." .Mr. McKinley an J the re-
publican party ought to be a Hare of the
fact that the "contract labor system"
universal on those islands in xint of
fact isabsolute shivery with the exception
of the word slavery bjit quite as much
slavery lis if it was culled slavery. It
is u kind of slavery with fewer features
of humanity in it than was a part of
southern slavery before the war. Tin
people of the southern states took care of
the old and worn out slaves but the
sugar planters of Hawaii wear out their
slaves under the contract system and
then turn them Iookp in old age to take
care of themselves.
We therefore in contemplating the
annexation of the Hawaiian Islands
should not only consider the wide differ-
ence in the population of the two coun-
tries in ideas of government in education
mid in habits and in customs religious
and social as well ns )wliticnl but we
must consider whether or not it is wise
again to introduce any system of slavery
which our jieoplc so unanimously have
thrown off. We could no longer boast
that the soil of this country if we make
Hawaii a part of it is not pressed by
the foot of a single slave or its atmos
phere tainted with the breath anil groans
of human slaves.
It is true the article to which we refer
in a Honolulu paper shows that an effort
has been Inaugurated to change the sys-
tem of lulsjr but that effort is confined
to humanitarians and reformers ns it
was in this country many years before
the slaves were emancipated but there
is mi more evidence that the planters of
the Sandwish Islands ure any more wil-
ling to abolish the contract labor system
xisting there which is slavery in its
worst form than the planters of the
southern states were willing before the
war to emancipate their slaves. The
article we refer to is tentative altogether
and hcurs evidence within itself that the
hange would receive strong opistsition
from the Hawaiian cultivators of sugar
which is the staple industry of the
islands.
We all know how strong a hold slave
labor takes on an agricultural community
specially in a hot climate and it would
Is' jumping to a very unreasonable con
tusion to assume that the planters on
the Hawaiian Islands would he willing
for the sake of annexation to the United
States to give up all the advantages they
lerive from the system of contract labor
now employed and agree to share their
protits with their former employes take
them into partnership with them as it
were. Mr. Harrison's administration
rushed into this mutter without proper
consideration. We trust Mr. McKinley's
administration will go slowly and con
sider this question of contract labor.
which is certainly inconsistent with our
laws as well us other incongruities that
ure self-evident.

It appears from Rear Admiral Bunch's
sensational report that our pride in our
navy was a little too previous. Ho says
only one ship iu the licet is w ithout fault
aud that several of them are unseuwortliy.
The Maine has too much suicrstructure;
the ordnance of the Montgomery is too
heavy for tho ship and nil the others
are faulty from one cause or aiiotler.
There seems however to be a difference
of opinion. The admiral is criticised se-
verely by some of the officers. Was the
admiral so top heavy during the block-
ade that he failed to discover the block-
ade runners by his fleet off Charleston
S. 0?
the European powers are simply delaying
the funeral until they can agree upon a
perfectly legitimate just and Christian-
like division of the funeral baked meats.
Greece is not however estopped. Its
courage aud defiance of the allied flit-ts
of the dominant powers will have a mora!
effect that will hasten the eud of the sul-
tan's' utrocities whenever Mohammedan
meets Christian. That is the irrepressi-
ble conllict the cross agaiust the cres-
cent and the cross must finally win the
battle of religious freedom whether on
the island of Crete or in the streets of
Constantinople.
The first way money was ever estimated
was by a standard of value. In directing
Moses how to estimate anything devoted

was according to the standard of values
of the temple tuki i from the merchant's
valuation "twenty gerahs sliull be u shekel."

GREECE AND TURKEY.
History furnishes fewer spectacles more
interesting than that now offered by the
onllict lietweoii Greece anil Turkey on
the island of Crete. Crete belongs to
Turkey having been conquered by the
Turks over 200 years ago but two-thirds
of the people are Greeks and Christians.

continued debauch out of sympathy with
human progress or human liberty regard

drunken delmuchee. The nations of En

them and returns again and again to his
drunken fremy.
Plucky little Greece herself a conquered
province of Turkey since 171S rose up
century later and gallantly fought out

Her ships have sailed to that island and
her soldiers uniting with the Cretan
irecks have taken possession of Crete.
recce is doing w hat the great European
powers should have done a century ago.
But these powers neglectful of their
own duty to protect human life and sus-
tain human efforts for lilierty and civiliza
tion are not going to let plucky little
Gnvee whip the Turk and liberate Crete.
Big England and France and Germany
and Austria and other mighty Christian

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
A CURB FOR IT.
urcr'B otlice standing Ijy I late as last iMuuiua;
Not a Patent Cure-All Nor a Modern
Miracle but Simply u Rational Cure
for DysM'psia.
In these days of humbugger.v and de
ception the manufacturers of patent med
icines as n rule seem to think their med-
icines will not sell unless tiny claim that
it will cure every disease under the sun
And they never think of leaving out dys
pepsia ana stomacli troubles 'liiey are
sure to chum that their nostrum is certain
to cure every dyspeptic and he need look
no turther.
In the face of these absurd claims it is
refreshing to note that the proprietors
or atuart s Dyspepsia Tablets nave care-
fully refrained from making any undue
claims or false representations regarding
the merits of this most excellent remedy
for dyspesia nnd stomach troubles. They
make but one claim for it. and that
is. that for indigestion and for various
stomach troubles Stuart's l)ysesia Tul-
lets is a radical cure. I hey go no further
than this and any man or woman suffer
ing from indigestion chronic or nervous
dyspepsia who will give the remedy a
trial will find that nothing is claimed for
it that the facts will not fully sustain.
It is a modern discovery composed of
harmless vegetable ingredients accepta-
ble to the weakest or most delicate stom
ach. Its great success in curing stomach
troubles is due to the fact that the med-
ical properties are such that it will di
gest whatever wholesome food is taken
into the stomach no matter whether the
stomach is in good working order or not.
It rests the overworked organ aud replen-
ishes the body the blood the nerves cre
ating a healthy appetite givis refreshing
sleep ami the blessings which always ac-
company a good digestion ami proper as-
similation of food.
In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets no
dieting is required. Simply eat plenty of
wholesome food and take these tablets at
each inetil. thus assisting nnd resting the
stomach which rapidly' regains its proper
digestive power when the tablets w ill Ik1
no longer required.
Nervous dyspepshi is simply n condition
in which some portion or portions of the
nervous system lire not properly nourish-
ed. Good digestion invigorates the ner-
vous system nnd every organ in the body.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
all druggists at W cents per package.
They are ninnufaetitred by the Stuart
Chemical company. Marshall. Mich.
Anv dnif-ist will tell you it gives nni-

London Feb. 22. The parliamentary
secretary for the foreign office Mr.
George N. Curzon answering a question
in the house of commons today said that
the presence of Greek troops in the island
of Crete so far seemed to have added to
the disturbances. The government was
not in favor of delegating to the Greek
forces the task of keeping order iu. the
interior of the island. Mr. Curzon fur
.her denied that the foreign warships
hud attacked the Greeks. He suid th
foreign fleets had no choice but to check
the Greek advance in the island of Crete
This statement wus greeted by oppo
sition cries of "shame" and ministerial
cheers.
Mr. Liibouchere. moved the adjourn
ment of the house in order to cull utten
tion to the firing on Greek forces by the
foreign warships and all the opposition
forces rose in supiiort of the proposition
Mr. Lubouchere suid the questiou wus
not a party one but a national one and
added:
"The liberals will do their utmost to
prevent further action in behalf of that
miserable cur the foul blot tqion civiliza
tion the sultan of Turkey."
The sis'iikcr pointed out that the rules
of the house culled for more respectful
language toward a foreign sovereign
whereupon Mr. Labouchcru aiwlogized
explaining that he was curried away by
the statements of Mr. Gladstone und oth
ers.
Mr. John Dillon chairman of the Irish
parliamentary party iu seconding Mr.
Ixibouchere's motion to adiourn said the
house had been silent too long. Her mui-
esty's ships hud committed an outrage
in uring upon a people wlio alter cen-
turies of oppression were risking their
lives lor treedom.
Mr. A. .1. Balfour the first lord of the
treasury und government leader dwelt
upon the difficulty and danger of the
present crisis. The powers he explained
were absolutely unanimous in ugreeing
that they should do everything to avert

tion Mr. Balfour continued were shared
by responsible statesmen throughout the
length and breadth of Buros'. He added:
"Will any one maintain that after the
lowers had occupied the towns of Crete
they were to fold their arms and stay
away.' I desire to conceal nothing but
regarding the future the government is
absolutely bound by certain conditions of
international communication. '
.Mr. Balfour explained that be could
only say that the government recognized
clearly that to leave the Greeks to upset
at will the good work Europe hud en
deavored to accomplish would fall fur
short of the international duties which the
government had undertaken.
fMr William ernon Harconrt the lib-
ral leader who had been loudlv cheered
by the opposition said that now was the
time when tho voice of England ought to
be beard. Continuing Sir William asked:
What is the interposition of Knirlnnd?
Why are we in Crete? What are we do
ing there?
l lie onty policy worthy of the govern
ment of England." said Sir William "is
to detach Crete from the Turkish ixiwer.
Public opinion is shocked at England ap-
pearing as the active opponents of the

England in a false position in the eves of

by n vote of 2:i to !:.".
.Several lilierals supported Mr. I.a-
bouchere dwelling on the stain on the
British ting lM'cuuse of the firing on the
Cretans.
The first lord of the admiralty. Mr.
Seorge .1. Gost-hcii. said the bombardment
wfis to be regretted but it was a necessi
ty. 1 he insurgents could not be allowed
to place guns where they commanded a
town which was occupied by foreign ma-
rines. He protested against Sir William
onion Hnrcourt's interpretation of the
iMinibiirdment us being intended to re
press a (M'ople fighting for fi doin.
.Mr. (fosclien said that the government
had done its best to hold an even scale
between Christians and Mussulmans.
