If European nations wish to hasten the annexation of Hawaii tney have only to raise objections to it. Take your hard luck as you would a pill.

Hoke Smith is the only fairly rich man thus far selected. He is worth a quarter of a mill.on and the others are worth well, the 8,000- a year salary they will receive.

In Illinois a Christian sciene apostle has been indicted for violat ing a state law by attempting to core the sick without having a diploma. The penalty is a heavy one, and as several deaths are laid to the apostle's charge the prosecution will be in earnest. A schooner is now being fitted oat at Halifax to go to the arctic regions to get ten or twelve Es qmmo families, fifty or sixty per sons in all, for exhibition at the World's Pair. Dog, fishing implements, atensils and every thing necessary to show Esqaimo life, will also be procured.

Wbde it aiay be true that farming interests are not as for advanced as usual, the beliefis universal that the year will be one of uuusual agricultural prosperity. Those who look to politics to work out a perfect and complete redemption will be disappointrd. Neither silver nor tariff legislation can bring relief to the people. They must realize that there is more profit in strong arms, brave hearts, and resolute spirits, tbau there can possibly be in any politi cal measure. It is true that Gov ernment properly regulated is an inestimable blessing. Let as trust that whatever laws tend to burden tne snoniuers auu repress me ouim of the people will be repealed, and , . i i ij . .i. .. such measures enacted aa win span our horizon with the bow of prom- ' ise.

It is especeally so in the south. Ta.k to a countryman five minutes and yon see the spirit of independence and self reliance asserting itself.

President Harbison if of opinion that the heavy drain on our treasury is a scheme to force the Government to issue bonds, whioh will cease as soon as it is learned that the Government can not be squeezed. Politics in Montana is certainly in aa addled condition when it is seriously proposed to make the chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee a United States Senator with the aid of Democratic votes. Thk meeting of Southern Gov ernors at Richmond ou April 12, to disease ways and means to advance the interests of fie South has been definitely decided upon.

As alnndiinti evident, the nomination ot Mr. Gresham to the Secretaryship oi State was a sur prise and a di-..ipp!intment to many ohl live Democrat, but wise men are graceful yielding to the inevitable, and the purpose ol opposing his comtirmation by the Senate i abandoned. The -election of Mr. Carlisle, for Secretary of Treasury is uni ei sally applauded. While the Secretary ol Scate holds the first pi, ice in the Cabinet, in the present condition of affar-i theTie isury is the more import-Hit position.
