Again We fDi the following.
Under all the circumstances, the Government have

e the Treaty. hut Ia doing ~. they 10 not affect
e. conceal their disappointment at the form in which
the question j. presented, AMI they hesitate io iniursc
the measure ~ one for which they hold themselves
fully responsible.
IL Ministers are disappointed. and " cannot
conceal their disappointment" pray what it il
about? Not one of them could have framed n
treaty half - likely To- succeed or meet the
acceptance Of the American Government and
people; AMI a. for holding than responsible for
the measure. no one will presume To do -. The
subjects Of the King from Niihau to Kau will
gladly bear b. the responsibility" and endorse
the measure IA toto. And if the treaty is sue
ce>-ful. the gentlemen who have been engaged in
trimming 1t. will deserve n life pension from their
respective governments and the gratitude of the
Nation. Again the silly writer goes on
These provisions of the treaty will undoubtedly
work n revolution ia the sugar manufacture, from
the more unfortunate consequences Of which, the
opening Of u iTce trade with Japan will aflorl much
relief
Of course they will work d. n revolution in the
sugar manufacture and give an impetus to it

the country. The free trade of japan, on which

demonstrating that a trade of some kind can be
