The House Still Wrestling With the
Hawaiian Question.
THE OPINIONS OF MEMBERS.
The Federal Elections Repeal Bill Is at
Last on In Earnest In the Senate.
ADay’s Proceedings In Both
Branches of Congress.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—At the opening of
the session of the house today, Mr. Ellis
(01x) asked unanimous consent for the con-
sideration of the senate bill to extend the
time allowed the Umatilla Irrigation com-
pany for the completion of its canal across
the Umatilla Indian reservation in the
state of Oregon, and the bill was passed.
After the call of committees for reports.
the Hawaiian debate was resumed, Mr.
Outhwaite (Dem., 0.) taking the floor in
support of the McCreary resolution.
He took the position that Minister Ste-
vens, in ordering the troops ashore at the
an act of war; that in betraying the gov-
ernment to which he had been accredited
he had been guilty of treachery, and that
in scheming with the sugar interests to
overthrow a weak monarchy with a view
to annexation he had been guilty of cow--
ardice.
He devoted much of his time to adduc-
ing proof tending to show Mr. Stevens’
complicity in the alleged conspiracy of the
sugar planters to bring about annexation
in order to secure the benefit of the sugar
bounty of the United States.
He analyzed the events of the revolu-
tion itself to show Mr. Stevens’ zeal on be-
half of the revolutionists. The subsequent
attempts to rush the Hawaiian Islands into
the United States, he said, were marked by
mock heroism at Honolulu and mock pa-
triotism in YVashington. He hoped when
the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Johnson)
wrote his comic opera he would not forget
to blaze on the banners of the chorus girls
$12 per ton on sugar;
“I might include your speech,” inter-
rupted Mr. Johnson. amid a ripple of
amusement. “It would certainly prove a
laughable feature of any comic opera.”
Mr. Outhwaite challenged the produc-
tion of a single scintilla of evidence to
prove that Mr. Cleveland, in the inaugu-
ration of a. policy which had for its pur-
pose the righting of a national wrong, ever
contemplated the use of force.
BIr. Culberson Speaks.
Mr. Culberson (Tex), chairman of the
judiciary committee, followed Mr. Outh-
waite and was listened to with great at-
tention. When Mr. Cleveland was in-
augurated, said he,'an extraordinary con-
dition of affairs with reference to Hawaii
existed. A treaty of annexation had been
negotiated and sent to the senate. The
transaction was incomplete.
The treaty was based upon the report of
Secretary Foster. It was Mr. Cleveland’s
right and duty to investigate that report,
already questioned. All the considera—
tions of national honor demanded that he
exercise that right and discharge his duty.
The main question before the house was
whether the evidence furnished demon-
strated the falsity of the report. If: it were
false, and the fact could be made to appear
that the revolution was accomplished by
the lawless act of our minister, then the
negotiation of that treaty was an inexcus-
able blunder, and Mr. Stevens’ action was
a. crime against the United States.
All the evidence, he went on, showed
that Secretary Foster’s report was errone-
ous and unreliable; that Mr. Stevens was
a revolutionist and a couspirator, and that
the landing of the troops to protect Amer-
ican life and property was a mere pretext
and disguise to make possible the success
of the projected usurpation. Long after
the defamers of the president shall have
been forgotten, the courage, patriotism
and devotion of a Democratic administra-
tion will stand as a monument to the hon-
or of the United States and the enlight-
ened justice of the world.
Mr. Sto rer (0.), a Republican member of
the committee on foreign affairs, said
that what occurred in Hawaii in January,
1893, was a small matter compared with
What had occurred in ll‘ashington since
March, 1893.
Mr. Blount’s mission, he said, was pure-
ly a political one. He was sent to make a
case against the last administration and
made it, added Mr. Storer, but he would
have made a better case if he had not made
so good a case, if he had been more careful
about expressing his own opinion.
Mr. Turner of Georgia, discussing the
Hawaiian resolution, made a vigorous de-
fense of Mr. Blunt. He was followed by
General Sicklcs of New York, who made
the first speech on the Democratic side in
opposition to the McCreary resolution.
In the Senate. .
The bill repealing the federal election
laws came up immediately after the pre
liminary business in the senate today, and
Senator Hawley (Rep, Conn.) took the
floor in opposition to the bill.
“Everybody knows that'this bill is to
pass,” said be. “In fact, immediately after
the triumph of the Democratic party at
the polls at the last election it was known
that this law would be repealed. This
marks a. distinct era in the history of the
country, at least as regards the ballot. It
marks a new interpretation of the consti-
tution upon provisions of the constitution
supposed to have been settled beyond
doubt for 100 years. The very preamble
of the constitution is sufficient to indicate
that the power to make laws for the regu-
lation of congressional elections is vested
in congress.”
Senator Hawlequuoted the constitution
providing for the election of members of
congress and said: “There can be nothing
plainer than this. James Madison, one of
the greatest interpreters and expounders
of the constitution, said that this power
in the national government was necessary
in order to prevent its own dissolution.
“He said that this power was necessary in
order to perpetuate the national govern-
ures; that they have not succeeped. N 0
law has ever succeeded in preventing of-
fenses. The work of nullification of the
right of sovereignty is in a sense triumph-
lng in the south. The work of nullifica-
tion in the north is progressing. There
have been audacious crimes committed
even in the last year in the north.
“When we consent to the disfranchise-
ment of citizens, we need not say we can'
confine it to the south. When the people
see the United States congress treating
with disrespect any attempt to protect
their vote, how easy a thing is it for them
to suppose that the end shall justify the
means in New York or St. Louis or Hart-
ford orBostonl”
