umr, deceased.
Howell Edmunds Jackson is an ex-
Senator, andii at present Judae of the
United States Court for the district em
bracing Tennessee, lie is a native and
life don" resident of Tennessee. He is
remembered at the Capitol as a nmn ol
quiet, unassuming manners, generally
well liked, and distinguished for fairnets
and judicial consideration of the questions
arising there.
Inquiry about the Capitol shows that
the appointment is considered from a ju
dicial and not a political view, as a splen
did one. President Harrison has shown
once more a great deul of judgment in
his selection of a man for a placo on the
bench of the highest tribunal iu the land.
It is stated that Mr. Jackson has made
a tine circuit judge and that no doubt is
entertained as to his making a good justice.
The appointment was a great surprise
to the Tennessee delegation in the House.
The two Republican members felt sore
over the selection of a Demoorat and a
States tights man, but when asked as to
Mr. Jacksoa's fitness conceded that his
ch tractor and abilities were all that could
be desired. The selection was political'y
Dot more pleasing to some of the Demo
cratic represrntaiives, who recall the
fact that Judge Jackson was a leader of
the "Pay School" Democrats of Tennes
see an element which made a warm but
unsuccessful fight within the party in
favor of the payment of the State debt
dollar for dollar substantially as demand
ed by the bondholders. These men said,
however, that the new Judge was strong,
clean and able.
Representative Ileuk, of Tennessee,
when asked about the appointment, said :
'I think President Harrison has followed
his inclinations and has betrayed the Re
publican party and committed a crime
against the Constitution by appointing
man who by birth and schooling is
States richts Democrat. But, barring his
belief in a strict construction of the Con
Btiiution and the supremacy of the State
over the liatioD, I havu nothing to say
against Jude Jackson. As a man he is
just, able, and humane.
Representative Enloc said: "It is an
excellent appointment. Judije Jackson
is able, industrious, pure in character,
and a good judge. I have never heard
his Democracy questioned."
Representative Pierce said: "It is
fine appointment."

Howell Edmunds Jackson was born
in Paris, Tennessee, April 8, 1832. In
1840 ho removod with his parents to
Jackson, Tennessee, was graduated at
the West Tennessee College in 1848, and
tbon passed two years in the University
of Virginia. In 185G ho was graduated
at the Lebanon Law School and began

Tho Sandwich Islanders, who killed
Capt. Cook iu 1778, are now knocking
at our door, and there will bo a pretty
strong commercial influence, particularly
on the Pacific coast, favoring their ad-mission.
Hawaii contains 4,000 square miles,
being larger than AVako county, while
the others are insignificant, and some are
not inhabited. About one hundred years
ago one of the savage kings got poss esion
of the entire island, and in 1825
the missionaries got a foothold there, and
a dozau years kter the king allowed a
civil constitution to the people, which
was followed in 1852 by grant of free
suffrage. Iu 1872 the Legislature elect
ed a king for thu first time, and two years
like Kalakaua,who was said to have been
a descendant of Saracusa, an Indian chief
of Halifax county, in this State, was elect
ed King. On his death there were etn
eutes, and tho present Queen gained the
throne, now to be displaced by tho pro
gressive party who are iu favor of mote
civilized methods of administraiiou than
the semi barbarous people of the Island
desire. Tho polities of tho Island hinge
on the sugar iutorest, and on the relative
influence of Great Britain and of this
country.

THE ANTI-OPTION HILL
PASSES THE SENATE WITH AMEND
MENTS.
The anti-option bill which passed the
House last summer passed the Senate
last week which takes it back to the
House for concurrence. Tho main pro
visions of the bill are as follows:
The first section defines the word
"option" to mean a contract or agree
meiit for the right or privilege to deliver
at a future time or within a designated
period any of the articles mentioned in
section 3.
The second section defines "futures"
to mean a contract or agreement to sell
and deliver at a future time or within a
designated period any of such articles
whon the party so contracting was not
the owner of such articles or had not
agreed for a right to their future posses
sion, i lie act, however, is tot to apply
to any contract to supply national, State
or municipal governments with any of
such articles, nor to contracts by farmers
and planters for future delivery, nor o
agreements to pay or deliver a part i
the product of land as compensation I r
its use or as compensation for work 1 1
labor done or to be dono on the same, ) '
to agreements with farmers or plant i
to furnish such articles for use or coi.
sumption; provided that such contracts t r
agreements shall not be made or settled
fur ot any board of trade or exchange.
The third section specifics the articles
to which the bill i.s to apply, as cotton.
(raw or manufactured), hop?, wheat,
corn, oats, rye, barley, pork, lard and ba
con.
The fourth section imposes special tax
es as follows: Dealers in "options" or
"futures" at $1,000 a year license fee and
5 cents a pound on cotton, hops, pork,
lard or bacon, and 20 cents a bushel on
grain.
Sections 5 to 14 relate to the details
for enforcing the tax, and section 15 pro
vides that the act shall take effect ou the
