Eloquent Defense of the United States Supreme Court and Constitution. After a session lasting three days, the Virginia Bar Association, which has been in secsion at Newport News, Va., adjourn- ed last night to meet next summer in the mountains, it being the custom of the asso- ciation to alternate between the seaside and mountains. A brilliant banquet mark- ed the close of the convention, which was attended by the state's leading lawyers, The principal feature of the session yes- terday was the address delivered by Sena- tor Hoar, which was pronounced to be a most profound effort. He said in part: “The duty of the American lawyer is to the American people to submit ali grievances to the arbitrament of law— If the law be righy to enforce it; if ft be wrong, to chang Experience has shown that the ears rae the judicial de- cisions require no revolution or disorder or violence for their remedy. “The power of the Supreme Court of the United States to declare void acts of the national legislature which it should deem in conflict with the Constitution, cannot anywhere be claimed ever to have nm en undue or a dangerous restraint on the power of self-government. “When I declare-that the power of our greatest tribunal to keep the legislative power within its appointed bounds is a power in aid of liberty, protected by the been wisely exercised from the . and that In every case from the beginning of the court has been right, has done what the framers of the Constitution would have done, what the people who ac- cepted the Constitution would have done, what the great Virginians of the elder day id have done, what Virginia herself n und always would have done—I am , I belleve, of your unanimous assent, save so far as It 1s to be roaltied hy “We must agree that the Supreme Court of the United States has scrupulously kept elf aloof from political co kept off the domain which be! political power of the country. been a few persons- now, I think, ver with the opinic h Mr. Jefferson ex- pressed under the excitement of his contro- versy with Chief Justice Marshall, that it never was intended that the Suprem Court of the United States should hav authority the attempt Seer power on the grour s in Conflict with the Constity But I suppose with few and rare ex- students and pa- ericans are glad that the Con- as so been interpreted, and are @ also that the necessity for this jud al interposition has been so infrequent and and tion. ceptions all thoughtful at the court h: n sparing and seru- palous in the exercise of this great power. “But we need to be taught the lesson of which the American lawyer is the hest possible icher—that everything which is permanent ts of slow growth.

His father, Mr. R. E. Smith, resides at 3007 P street, is a well-known Grand Army man, and formerly a Meutenant in the Old Gvard. The son went out west some years ago, and located in Oregon, and at the first call for troops enlisted. He sent several letters to his home people before starting, and while at Honolulu wrote one, which reached its destination but a few days ago. In it he says: “The last view of my native land was at sunset as we passed out of the Golden Gete at San Francisco. The sun was just setting behind the mountain of Waianae as we entered the harbor of Honolulu. Words cannot describe the beauty of the is:ands. Our reception at Honolulu, for sin- cerity, enthusiasm and generosity could not have been greater among our own dear friends, were we just returning home from the war. All of the boys realize that after they leave Honolulu their life will be a hard one with plenty of fighting, but that dces not seem to dampen their patriotism in the least. We are going to make his- tory, and we hope that many people for generations to come will have cause to bless the day that the American soldiers, sailors and marines freed them from the Spanish yoke.” Mementoes of the Visit. Inclosed with the letter were several in- teresting mementoes of the visit of the trcops to the islands. Every soldier was given a silk white ribbon badge, upon which the flags of America and Hawati were crossed, while printed in blue ink was the following: “Aloha to the boys in blu Honolulu, H. I. 1898."" The following is a copy of a dodger dis- tributed broadcast, showing some of the amusement provided for the visiting troop- First, this ers: “Attention, U. S.

A sister of Mr. Smith also received an in- teresting letter, written in English, from one of the natives of the islands, who is of American parentage. The letter 1s as fol- nee: 1, H.

American Paper's Comment. Another souvenir sent home by Mr. Smith was a copy of the Pacific Commer- celal Advertiser, an American paper pub- lished at Honolulu. A souvenir number was gotten out for the occasion, headed in type resembling the American flag—“Boys in Blue edition.” One-half of the page was printed in red ink and the other half i blue, which, with the white paper, gav our national colors. At the top of the first page was a two-column cut of the Amer- lag, while beneath was the inscrip- tion, “This is what is going to Manila. In the lower left-hand corner was a two- column cut of Admiral Dewey, and, as the foot line states, “he holds the fort.” Th paper bears the date of June 2, and in big headlines announces, “In the Hands of Americans. The First Manila Expedition. 2,500 Men Are Now in Honolulu.” The opening paragraph reads: “The town was set in a fever of excite- ment when, at a little after 4 o'clock yes- terday afternoon, the boys at the central office conveyed the message to thousands of anxious people in ‘the city that there were three foreign steamers off Walman- alo, The message had come from the other side of the island, and it was impossible to tell at the time what the vessels were. Just three columns of smoke floating away to the southeast could be distinguished. it was not many minutes after this when the message came that the steamers could be seen by Diamond Head Charley, and that they were the City of Pekin, the Australia and another steamer that could not be seen very distinctly. The fire whistle sounded immediately the signal of five whistles and instantly fiags all over the city went up and carriages and crowds of pedestrians went hurrying along toward the different wharves. They had a long wait, but they were not in the least fatigued, for they were on the tip-toe of expectancy and talk- ed gaily. There has not been in many years such a commotion in this city as the news created.” Ths account then continues to describe the hearty reception given the transports and how each person in the populace en- deavored to outdo the other in cheering, and how many baskets of delicacies and other needful things were collected and dis- tributed among the troops on the different ships, no man being allowed ashore the first day. iu” Kapiolani's Aloha, In another portion of the paper there ts an account of Kapiolani’s aloha, which reods: “The Queen Dowager Kapiolani will today present to Captain Glass, on board the U. 8. S. Charleston, a large silk flag made by the Hawaiian women. Princes David and Cupid and a number of ladies will be in the train of the Queen Dowager. The gift is made on account of Kapiolani's aloha for the cruiser which brought the body of the late King Kalakaua from San Francisco. The flag will have for storage a beautiful calabash and an address goes with the presentation.” Editorially the paper says: “Hawall wel- comes the advance guard of the American legions moving across the great tranquil sea to the southern latitude. It is the first movement of American bayonets across the equator and beyond the western mar- gin of the continent. The cause in which they move js a noble one. Hawail covers the boys in blue with hervleis of flowers, and to them all gives her greeting: Aloha.” ee To Retire Commander Kellogg. The Senate passed a bill yesterday after. noon to retire Commander A. G. Kellogg of the navy account of inca} suiting from long and faithful service. The Measure Became a Law Last Evening. President MKinley, at % "o'clock last evening, appended to the resolution an- nexing the Hawaiian, Islands: “Approved, July 7, 1898. WILLIAM McKINLEY.” The ceremony took place in the cabinet rcom of the White House, and was wit- nessed by six persons. At twenty minutes "before 7 o'clock Alon- zo H. Stéwart, assistant doorkeeper of the Senate, arrived at the Whiie House with the engrossed copy of the resulution signed by Vice President Hobart, and Sereno E. Payne, Speaker pro tempore of the House, and George B. Cortelyou, assistant secre- tary to the President, receipted for the resolution ia the usual form, and then noti- fied the President that it had arrived. The President said simply that he would sign the resolution immediately, and a few min- utes later a little group was gathered about the cabinet table to witness the comptetion of this important legislation. Those who comprised the group were Mrs. McKinley, Secretary Cortelyou, Mr. Stewart, Capt. B. F. Montgomery of the Signal Corps, who is in charge of the war rcom at the White House; Capt. Charles Loeffler, the President's confidential mes- senger, and George B. ifrease, postmaster of Canton, the President's home city. Before rising from the cable, President McKinley also approved the general de- ficiency bill, the last of the great appro- priation measures passe] by the present Congress. The President presented to Mr. Stewart the pen with which 42 had signed the Ha- waiian resolution, and i: will be preserved by him as a souvenir of an act that will make history for the United States.

The China steamed ahead of the Zalandia, Co- jon and Senator in order to load coal and clear the wharf before the other vessels. The big steamship received a warm wel- come. Brig. Gen. Greene immediately sent his adjutant to the wharf with his compli- ments to United States Consul General Haywood aud President Dole, who were on the wharf, and invited them on board. At © o'clock the soldiers were allowed to go ashore. It w: aifite iate the same day when the other vessels reached the harbor. Crowds on the wharves cheered the vessels.

He is Expected to Reach Santingo Early Next Week. Maj.. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army, accompanied by his staff, left last night for Charleston, 8. C., where the party will embark for Santiago. The party consisted of Gen. Miles, Gen. J. C. Gilmore, adjutant general of staff; Gen. Roy Stone, Col. C. R. Greenleaf, surgeon; Lieut. Cols. J. W. Clous, M. C. Maus and A. S. Rowan, Maj. John D. Black and Capt. H. H. Whit- rey. At the same time Lieut Col. Michler and a large staff of headquarters clerks who have been in Tampa will come north to Charleston and join hte party. The start will be made from Charleston on the first steamer after the general and his staff ar- rive. It is expected that the party will be at Santiago the early part of next week.
