The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1856-1888, 1881-08-27

THE KING will, according to latest in
formation, take passage from Liverpool by
a steamship of the White Star Line, OH or
about the 18th of September, for the city
of New York. His Majesty's visit and
stay at Washington will of course be deter
mined by the health OF the President. His
Majesty has signihed a desire to visit the
fue stock estates of the "blue grass REGION"
and we may hear of his visiting other parts
of the South and Southwest of the United
States however, His Majesty may be ex-
pected, whether by n national vessel or a
mail steamer, about the last of October, or
early in November.
THIS issue of the ADVERTISERS closes the
first year under the present management
Of the journal, and it viii rot De inappro-
pirate to cast n glance back upon the years
discussion, and to make some statement of
views and purposes in the future.
In the August of 1SsO-and about that
time, the King was treated with scant
courtesy. Twoforeign journals in Honolulu
representing a strong disloyal sentiment,
used such language as this =" An igno-
rant, dishonest, weak, low-bred, or licen-
tious chief will ave ignorant, dishonest,
weak, low-bred, and licentious retainers."
And this WHO put His Majesty Kala-
kaua on the Throne? Not the natives"
And, Notwithstanding the treasonableness
of such allusion and statement, there were
then readers and listeners in sympathy
with such remarks. Since then, during
the space of a few months, n great Ohio

| Now, "His Majesty has won golden
/ opinions everywhere" and the ~revilers
have become the foremost flatterers. But
this journal-at and since the period re-
| ferred to-and its editor at all times-have
maintained the same tone one expressive
Of faithful support of the Hawaiian King
and People, and of Hawaiian Indepen-
dence. And the course Of this journal in
the future, under its present management
will be the same. 1t is determined hat ii
shall advocate and support the following
general principles and measures =
1. The preservation of the Hawaiian
people the maintenance of Hawaiian indie
p~endence the advocacy of a joint guarantee
by Great Powers Of a perpetual neutrality
Of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the sup

timent. The character OF Kamehameha
who founded the Kingdom, is deserving OF
great consideration. He gives character to
his race, and he exalts his Archipelago. he
placed a trustful confidence in the generous
foreign mind n true sons OF grea'
nations, which represent liberty and JUS
tice, will deem it honorable to cooperate
with the descendants of K~amehameha for
the preservation and advancement OF the
Kingdom. The son OF a nation of fifty OIL
one hundred millions can give an unhesl-
tating pledge Of allegiance to support the
King and Constitution Of this little State
without a shadow Of dishonOr.
.. This journal will shape its discussion
to flavor a continuance of the Treaty Of Reel
procity with the United States, but VII
not advocate any undue concessions tt
secure that object. Its editor opposed al
one time a eession of a harbor and territory
proposed in order to secure such atreaty; anc
he would now oppose any political conces
