oath Of office and all the royal acts since
that was taken, by administering the oath Of
Office second time. Perhaps the whilom
Mormon Elder, w. NJ. Gibson, has had such
experience in concocting religious services that
his feryid Oriental genius is to prepare the
unique "religous service" to be added to the
civil form" No one could 50 well set off the
affair as the versatile Premier OF Primate, and
thenceforth, in his harrangues to the Hawaiian
people, and his editorials, insist upon obedience
to Kalakaua, not only as a civil obligation but
as a religious duty.

CZBSoNS RECIPROCITY poLlcy


Careful scrutiny Of this arch. .plotter's ma
neuvering since our too. susceptible King re.
paid his fulsome batteries with the portfolio
OF Premier, has laid bare the one prominent mo.
tive inspiring all his acts. Self.aggrandize.
ment is the most comprehensive term descrip.
tive of the mans principal ambition at all times
and under all circumstances, and his thorough
unscrupulousness in regard to the agencies he
| employs in securing the advancement of self,
completely strips his actions of whatever merit
his otherwise able management might clothe
| them with, and in no case has his careful pro.
lection Of self-interest been mors conspicuous
than in his management of the Reciprocity
question during his brief elevation to his
present position of fancied greatness, and not
withstanding his studious attempts at conceal
ment his trail is plainly exposed Beginning
during the legislative session when he SO sue
cessfully evaded the attempts of members to
make him define his position on this question
he early saw the Importance of establishing
himself as the sole director of Hawaiian inter.
ests in this relation, and the medium to which
all parties would have to apply for reciprocity
information. He adroitly secured to himself
the discretionary disbursement Of the increased
appropriation for foreign missions that was
voted ostensibly in he interests Of continued
reciprocity. He conciliated and made subject
to his wishes one Of his most dangerous oppo.
nents by promising him special commission
to.Washington, etc.
He probably fancies that he has attained an
impregnable position with the Planters and
others mos, interested, but he greatly over.es.
Inmates himself; he is too we'll known and his
motives too well.understood; he cannot be
trusted. Every one knows that his principal
object is to make his ministerial position more
secure and defensible. But he has gone fur
ther in his duplicity than is generally known.
He assumes to promise in the name Of the Ha.
"aiian government that absolute free trade
with America will be favored by Hawaii, and
that such arrangement Of import duties will be
made as to make trade with any other country
than America, practically impossible. Here
he over'shoo,s the mark, and plainly invites
complications which he cannot control. OIL
course such an arrangement would be highly
hattering TO Americans, and would Crafty the
wishes even Of extremists among them Mr..
Gibson has been indastriously making capital
ior himself out Of this idea, and he no doub,
'anc'es that he has made faithful ally Of the

YORI7HSN "a PtBkLC EXPEMSE.

ri PORI7XSH At PUBLIC EXPENSE.
Among the many other charges that can be
laid at the door of the present ministry is that
Of nepotsm, and Of often overstepping the
proper bounds in order to favor relative or
friend. The rights Of others in this respect are
ornment for moment thought Of We have
previously alluded to the appointment of the
" son-in.aw" to an unimportant office, the
salary Of which was raised from 5000 to ST. 500
Gus duties that could have been better done by
others. In our last two issues we referred to
the letting out Of contracts to favorites without
giving Others an opportunity to put in a bid.
Once more we must enter a like charge. The
Legislature at its late session appropriated the
sum Of So 900 for needed repairs and exten.
sions at the Insane Asylum. Bids have not
been advertised for but the contract, neverthe.
SIS, 500 which will leave very small margin
for other Improvements that may be neces.
sary. This is most reprehensible conduct on
the part of the ministry. All of the builders
should have had an opportunity to enter bid
and the one that proved most satisfactory
allowed to do the work. The ministry may
say that they took the cheapest plan, and the
organ may expatiate upon the matter with the
view of making it clear'to the dear people ;
but if other transactions of like character are
any crteria by which to judge, it is our opin.
ion that the people will pay dearly for their
whistle. The work is the peoples and not the
ministry's and should be given to the one who
would do it satisfactorily for the least money.
| short time ago it was desired to build gas
vault and pump house of brick for, the new
palace. Bids were not advertised for, but two
or three were rendered to the Interior Depart.
ment. These they refused to open and the
work was given out by the day. One bid was
for ST., 100 and another for SI,25o, both parties
agreeing TO complete the work for the sum
| given. Work has been continued on the
vault since but it is not completed, and the
expenses up to the present time amount to a
total OF $1,000. BY the time the work is
completed it will probably amount to double
what it was proposed to do it for in the bids
rejected. This as sample of the presen,
ministy's work, shows us what we may ex.

We are told that the only reason why the
present cabinet is held together, against the
strong current Of opinion against them which
runs through all classes Of the community is,
that it is doubted whether other four men
could be got together who would lend them.
selves to act in such an idiotic burlesque as the
approaching coronation. Lack Of funds at
home and lack Of credit abroad by this govern.
ment must eventually unseat the existing cabi.

rude shocks on this score, that should teach

TRUTH SHALL PREYAIL.

1t appears to be difficult matter for some
people to regard as the truth that which is dis.
tasteful to them; or if they inwardly believe it,
are not willing to admit it. The SATURDAY
PRESS and all of its contemporaries, except
those published by the Premier, have lately
been giving the public some facts and figures
that have opened the eyes of not few. That
the people of the entire Kingdom are pleased
to see this fearless exposure of wrong doing on
the part of public officials, is evidenced by the
large number of letters that we and others have
received from every island in the group. This
opposition comes from no particular class or
clique, but is the expression Of the whole peo-
pie, native and foreign. Truths that are not
palatabe to the present ministry, the organ,
not being able to refute, attempts to deny
until proofs brought forward, when it relapses
into silence. The p c. H., of Monday last.
speaks Of some ribald newspaper writer's, the
sound OF whose defamation so fills their own
ears that they fancy the people Of the country
are roaring out the same tale" This is only
an other way of attempting to crawl out of
close corner. 1t is true that the papers have
roared in the ears Of incompetent and unworthy
public servants, and it is true that the roar has
been echoed back from every town and hamlet
in the kingdom. Every assertion that we have
made has been proved, Notwithstanding the
repeated denials of the ministerial organ.

Respecting the stranding of the Niagara, it
has been asserted, upon good authority, that
with good strong tug boat to work with, in
stead of the miserable and inefficient thing
called the Pflt, the vessel might have been
readily cleared again after having struck. Lit
tie, however, could be expected to be accom-.
plished in such situation by boat that is
scarcely able to propel her own hull against a
ten knot current and a moderate breeze. The
r. c. 4. says: misfortune brings once more
into prominent notice the inadequacy of the
tug /sIe for the work ofthis port" The wicked
ministry that preceded the immaculate one
now in Office, knowing of this inadequacy,
proposed in the budget the amount of $50, 900
to be devoted to the purchase Of competent
tug. Their successors in Office however, think
ing the money might be needed for some royal
freak not, perhaps, at the time matured, saw fit
to expunge the requisition for "new tug"
But this is what the Gibson organ calls ''wisely
declining to favor the investment Of a large sum
OF money in a new tug boat" As has been
the case with many other professions of the
present ministry, they were "soing 10" subsi-
die any one that might 60 into the enterprise.
But they didn't, and never intended to do so !;
the records of the assembly show no such in.
tent, nor any appropriation therefore.
