" Believes That Congress Should Annex 1 the Isfands. . - By a special message dated the 16th day of June last,-1 laid before the sen ate of the United States a treaty signed that. dayboy the plenipotentiaries of the United States and of the republic of Hawaii, having, for Its purpose the in corpojajjen of the. Hawaiian Islands as an Inte2a part of the United. States, and unxJer its sovereignty. The senate having removed the injunction of secre cy, although the treaty is still pending before that body, the subject may be properly referred to in this message because the necessary action of the con gress is required to determine by legis lation many details of the eventual union should the fact of annexation be accomplished, as l believe it should be. While consistently disavowing from a very, early period any; aggressive policy of absorption in regard to the Hawaiian group, a Ion? series of declarations through three-quarters of a , century has proclaimed the vital interest of the United States, in the independent life of the islands, and their intimate commercial-dependence upon this country. At the same time it has been repeatedly asserted that in no event could the en tity of Hawaii statehood cease by the passaged of -the islands under the dom ination or 'influence or, power of the United States. Under these circum stances, the logic cf events required that annexation, therefore, offered but de clined, should in the ripeness of time come about as the natural result of the strengthening ties that bind -us to those islands, and be realized by the free will of the Hawaiian state. That treaty Tyas unanimously ratified without amendment by the senate and president of the Republic of Hawaii on Sept. 10 last, and only awaits the'favor able action Of the American senate to effect the complete absorption of the islands into the .domain of the United States. What the conditions of such a union shall be, the political relation thereof to the United States, the char acter of the local administration, the quality and degree of the elective fran chise of the inhabitants, the extension of the federal laws to the territory or the enactment of special laws to fit the i'u"a' tuuulLlu" luc'elU1' x tguia- -N 1 a tm- Ah-n 4- V 4. In. a ... tion ' if Tippfi of thp 'lahnr svstom therein, and all matters which the treaty has wisely relegated to the con gress. If the treaty is confirmed, as every consideration of ..dignity and hon or requires, the Wisdom of congress will see to it that, avoiding abrupt assimila tion of elements perhaps hardly yet fit to Share in the highest-; franchises of citizenship and having due i regard to the;..geographica.l conditions, the most just provisions for self rule In local mat ters with the largest political liberties and an integral part of our. nation will be accorded to the Hawaiians. No less is due to a people who, after nearly five years of 'demonstrated capacity to ful fill the obligations of self-governing statehood,, come of .their 'free ' will to merge-their destinies in our body pol itic. Will Fix Japaf,. The XLuestions which have arisen be tween Japan and Hawaii by reason of the treatment of Japanese laborers emi grating to the islands under the Hawaiian-Japanese convention of 1888) are in a satisfactory stage of settlement by negotiation.5 This government has not been invited to mediate and on the oth er hand has sought no intervention in that matter, further than to evince its kindliest disposition . toward such a speedy and direct v. adjustment . by the two sovereign states in Interest as shall comport with equity and honor. It is gratifying to learn that the apprehen sions at first displayed on the part of Japan lest the cessation of Hawaii's na tional life through annexation might impair privileges to which Japan hon orably laid claim, have given place to confidence in the uprightness .of this government and in the sincerity of its purpose to deal with all possible ulterior ?uestions in the broadest spirit of riendliness. ' h Other American Nations. As to the representation of this government- to Nicarainia, Salvador and f Costa Rica I have concluded-' that Mr, William L. Merry, confirmed -'as minis ter -of the United States to the" states of Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica, shall proceed to- San Jose, Costa Rica, and there temporarily - establish the headquarters of the' JJnited States to tljose three: states. ;r I .took this action for what I regarded as the" paramount interests of this country.

'A subject of large importance to our country, and increasing appreciation on the part of , the people is the completion of the great highway of trade, between the Atlantic and Pacific,5 known as the Nicaraguan Canal. Its utility and value to v American commerce ; is- universally admitted. The commission appointed under date of July 24,last.

In the future I shall take Occasion to transmit to congress the re port of the commission, making at the i same time such further suggestions as may then seeni advisable. BIMETALLIC COMMISSION He Trusts Their Labors May Result in an Interr.aUonal Agresmnf. Under the ' proVissiotis of the act of, congress approved March 3, 1897, for the promotion of an . international agree ment respecting bimetallism, I appoint ed on the fourteenth day of April, 1897, Hon. .Edward C. Wolcott, of Colorado; Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson, of Illinois and Hon. Charles J. Paine, of. Massachusetts-, as special envoys to represent the United States. Tlhey have been diligent in their efforts to secure the concur rence and eo-ope ration of European countries in the international settle ment of the question, but up to this time have not been able to secure an agree ment ooaitempdajted by their ? misgiooi. The gratifying action, of our sister re pulbdic of Prance in joining this country in the attempt to bring about an agree ment among the principal commercial nations of Europe, wiherefby a fixed and rotative value between gold and sliver $hall be secured, furnishes assurance tihat we are not alone among the larger nations of the world in realizing the in ternational cfharacter of the problem and in the dasiire of readning some wdse and practical solution of it. The Brit- teih government has published a resume of the steps taken jointly by the French ambassador in London and the special envoys of the United States with whom our ambassador at London actively co operated In the presentation of this subject to her majesty's government. Tfoia wiM be laid before congress. Our special envoys have not made their final, report, as further negotiations between the representatives cf this governmenit and the governments cf other countries are pending and in contemplation. They believe that douibts wthicih have been raised in certain quarters resipecting the question of maintaining the stability of the parity 'between the metals and kin dred questions may yet be solved by further negotiations. Meanwhile i't gives me satisfaction to state that the sipecial envoys have al ready demonstrated thedr ability and fitness to deal with the soubject and it is to be earnestly hoped that their la 'bors may rosudt in an -international hnin - mTit u-lhV.h wlJl hrin? n w rn. ogn'iition of both gold and silver money upon auclh terms and with such safe guards as Will secure the use of both metals upon a basis which shall work no injustice to any class of our citizens. In order to execute as early asl possi ble the provisions of - the third and fouirdh sections of the revenue act ap proved July 24, 1897, I appointed the Hon. John A. KassOn, of Iowa, . a special commissioner, plentlpotentiary, to undertake the requisite negotiations with foreign countries desiring to avail themselves of these provisions. The ne gotiations are now proceeding with several governments, both ' European and American. It is believed that by a' careful exercise of the powers con- ferred by that act some grievances of our own and of other countries in our mutual trade relations may be either removed or largely alleviated, and, that the volume of jeur commercial ex changes may be enlarged, with advan tage to botlh contracting parties Talks of Alaska. The territory of Alaska requires the prompt and early attention of con gress. T5he conditions now existing de mand material changes in the laws re lating to the territoiry. The great influx of popo&aition durSng the past summer amd fal'l, and the prospect of a still larger immigration in the spring, will noit nerwdit us to lonerer neelect tne ex tension. Of civil authority, within the ter ritory or postpone the estafclishmenlt'of a more thorough government. . A general system of pufcflic surveys has not yet been extended to Alaska, and entries thius far made in that dis trict are upon special surveys. , The act of ' congreE'S extending to Alaska the minfing , laws of the United States con tained the reservation that it should not be mnstrued to put in force the general land Iatws of the country. By act ap proved March 3, 1891, authority was given for entry of lands for town-site purposeis and also for the purchase of not; exceeding one hundred and sixty acres then or thereafter occupied for purposes and also for the pairchase of The purpose of congress, as : thus 'en acted has been that only such rignts should apply, to the territory as should be specifically named.- - - , ; It will be seen how much remains to be done for- that vast and remote and yet promising portion of our" country. Spiecial authority was given to the pres . ien.t ,by the act Of "' congress ' , approved July 24, 1897, to divide that territory Into two rand districts and to designate the boxmidaries thereof and 'to appoint regis ters and surveyors of said land . office and the president was . authorized to ap point, a surveyor-general for the entire district. Pursuant to thfts authority, a surveyor-general and receiver have been appointed with offices alt 'Sitka. , ; --I concur with the secretary of war in his suggestions as to ttie necessity for a military- force in . the territory of Alaska for the protection of persons and " property. ' Already ;a small force, consisting of twenty-five men- with two Officers, "'under "command of Lieut. -Col. Randall, of the Eight infanry has been gent to St. Michael to eJtabiish a mili tary post.; As it is to the interest of the governmenit ; to encourage the ' develop ment and settlement of the country, its duty to follow up its citizens witlh the benefits of legal .machinery, earnestly urge upon, congress the estab lishmentt of a system.oc government of; sirdh flexihility as will enable it to ad- just itself to the future areas or greatest population. v ' s1'' !. : To Relieve Starving: The stSantling, though1 possibly, eiwfr- -gerated- reports from ttoe Yukon River country, of the proibawe shortage " of food for, the large nuanber of people who are wintering there without' the means of leaving the country, are confirmed in ucl measure as to justify bringing the matter to the attention of congress. 'Ac- cesl to that i country in winter ' can - be had only through the passes from Dyea and; vicinity, which is "a., most difficult and perhaps an impossible task: How ever, should these reports of the suffer ing of our fellow-citizens be further ver- ined, every effort at any cost should De made to carry them relief.- ; - , - INDIAN AFFAIRS i For . a number of r years past it has been apparent the - conditions under which .the five 'civilized, tribes were es tablished in the. Indian territory under treaty provisions with the United States) with the right of self government-' and the exclusion of all white per sons ' from within their borders, have Undergone so complete a change as to render the continuance of the system thus inaugurated . practically Impossi ble. The secretary, of. the' interior re ports that leading Indians- have ab sorbed great tracts of land to the ex clusion of the common people, and gov? ernment by 'an Indian, aristocracy, has been practically established, ' to the det riment of the people. It has been found impbssible for the United States to keep its citizens out of the territory and the executory conditioris contained in the treaties with these Jnations have for he most 'part been impossible of execution. Norr.has it been possible for the tribal governments to secure to each individ ual, Indian his , full;: enjoyment in com mopvyith other Indians of the common property of the nations. Friends of the indians ' have long believed the best in terests of the Indians of the five civil ized -.tribes' would be found in American citizehsbip, with all the rights and privileges which belong to that condi tion. - - The Unw.n Pac.fic. The president here devotes a thousand words to the Unaoni Pacific railroad, and concludes with, 'the suggestion that congress might, with advantage, be come a bidder for' the 'property. The important branch of our govern ment "known as the civil service, the practdical improvement of which has long been a subject of earnest discus sion, has of late years resulted in in creased legisiiative and executive ap proval. During the past few months the service has been placed upon a still firmer basis of business methods and persona! merit. While the right of our veteran soldiers to reinstatem-mt in de serving cases has been asserted, dis missals for political . reasons has been carefully guarded against, the exam iniations for admit'bance to the service enlarged and at the same time rendered leas technical and more practical and a diisitinict advance has been made by giv ing a hearing before disihisistal upon all cases Where incompetency is charged or demand made for remove! of officials in any of the departments. This order has been made to give to the accused his right to be heard but without in any way impairing the power of the removal, which should be exercised in cases of inefficiency and incompetency, and which - is one of. the vital safe guards ot!he civil service reform sys- tem,r preventing4 stagnation and dead- ; (wood and keeping every employe keenly alive .to the fact that the. security of his tenure depends not on favor, but his own tested and carefully watched record of service, Much," of course, still, remains to foe accomplished before the system can be resonably made perfect for our needs. There are places in the classified service j wfcich ought to be exempted and others , not classified may properly be included, i i ; shall not hesitate to exempt cases ! which I may think have been ianprop erly included in the olasefified service or incJude those which in my judgement will best promote the puibllic service. The system has the approval of the people and it will be my endeavor to uphold, and extend it. I am forced y the length of this mes sage to omit many important references to affairs of the government with which congress will have to deal at the pres ent eese'ion. They are fully discussed In the . department reports, to all of 'Which I invite your earnest attention. The estimates of the expenses of the government it sitoould not encourage the inoreasie. The?e expenses will in ray judgement admit of a . decaeas'e in amany brandh'es of tlfce government without injury to the, puibllic service.

So says J.D. Gavetskl, a Russian gov ernment engineer, and P. '.CamillaTd, a French engineer in the service of Papot & Co.; of Paris, who have just arrived at Victoria, B. C, from the Orientraf ter having been engaged in the construc tion of the Trans-Siberian railway. A traveler . can zo from Vladivostock. on the Pacific coast to St. Petersburg, 9,987 miles, in from ten. to twelve days. With the great Railway an accomplished fact, it is easy to be seen that the mili tary strength of Russia on the Pacific coast will be greatly strengthened, for though how there are but 20,000 soldiers at Vladivostock. if trouble should arise over 200,000 could Te rushed to the coast within: a week. Vladivostock is itself in an exceptionally strong position, for there are no less than thirty fortresses there, and a fleet of from seven to nine Russian warships are ever in the har bor. " v . The trans-continental line after leav ing Vladivostock runs northerly to Xabarofsk, where the governor-general of Western Siberia Tesides. This is a city of 100,000 inhabitants, and a strong military point. From Xabarofsk it runs westerly to Blagowreschensk and Nertchensk, two very important cen ters of population. From here a break occurs for aboirt 1,000 miles, and instead or proceeding by. rail the traveler takes passage on one of the river steamers running up the Amoor river to where the railway again begins. This and a break at Lake Balkan, where connec tion is also made by steamers, are the only breaks in the line, and before long these will no longer, exist, as work has already begun in continuation of the line along the banks of the Amoor and around Lake Balkan. From this lake to the Siberian boundary f Af a-Samara about ten large cities, with a population averaging about 50,000 people,- are met. All are strong military posts, and many soldiers are stationed at each. Work has just been commenced on a line from Vladivostock through North ern Manchuria to Blagowreschensk, paralleling the other line, and by which the' journey will be shortened about 1,500 miles. This line is being built by virtue of a concession between Russia and China. M. Gavetski says the country through which the road passes is fabulously rich in minerals far richer than Cariboo, California or Klondike, and there is more of it and more variety. There is gold (both quartz and placer), silver, coal and other minerals. Many compa nies are at work there, but the majority goes to the Russian government. The companies are all forced to pay a roy alty on the mineral taken out by them. These mines, M. Gayetski says, employ thousands and thousands of men, and now that the railway is open and the mine operators are able to send their minerals to Russia, the work will be greatly increased. Tne new road, he says, is liberally patronized, and will be a paying institution. From the Lone Star State comes the following letter, written by W. F. Gass, editor of the Mt. Vernon (Tex.) Herald: "I have used Chamfberlaln's Collc Chol era and Diarrhoea Remedy in my fam ily for the past year, and find It the best remedy for colic and diarrhoea that I have ever tried. Its effects are in stantaneous and sattsf aotory, and I cheerfully recommend it, especially for cramp colic and diarrhoea.
