NDiWithsianding all that has becn nid and
written upon ihc necessity u change IN the
administration ~ this Government ere this
community viii be- satisfied and by this com
munity W. include the residents II the other
islands, fot they are one with us in sentiment
there is little evidence, 10 fnf, of any desire 10
acccdc Ia this popular demand that ha, been
made, although the people have long borne
with the glahng evils of maladmini,ira,ion.
There IL 10 be- seen, rather, . determined op.
position to any aud everything shown TO be
desire N the people The indications of q
natural ouigfowth of the inconpuous and
irresponsible nature u the present cabinet,
and when they bring the crisis upon Themselves
il will be no matter of credit 10 the King that
their places be given to men who will honor
their positions and bc an honor to the country
and its King, from the fact that there will be
no alternative. This people will be satisfied
| with no other
We can conceive Of no logical reason for
this set opposition, when the constitution
recognizes the rgh, Of the voice of The people
in the administration of government, that for.
bodies aughi but ILL., not only to the country
bu, the administration itself, and il is for this
cause we have been plain in our speech, IN the
hope tha, the evils which threaten Us may be
avcrtcd. n, as the organ Of the Premier has
stated, these protests Of the people have but

then so much the more reason have We FOR ~
appeal to a source that will gran, an abused
and law.abiding people their rights. II tn,
, people, so far, have asked and looked in yair
them an administration that will rule for III,
good Of the land, to whom shall they look, O
to what state shall they be driven in their dcs
pcraton'
False fla,tercrs have gained the royal ear an'
the cry Of the whole land is said to be simpl
, that Of few " disappointed outs" Does tn
, willy one presume for moment to 50 laud tn
, ability Of the "fcw outs" to create the uniyer
I sal cry the whole length and breadth Of tn
landp Does the King believe this for on
moment2 Just analyze such a situation and Sc
h the possible results with such following
, Were those who desire to see new cabine
placed in power actuated by moiety Of tn
& base motives they are charged with, we woul
not have borne with patience up TO the presen
stage Of proceedings. Men with such bas
motives generally employ base methods t
carry them out, and with the people as a uni
on this question of dissatisfaction at the prescn
, irresponsible ministry and the growing tenden
cies Of autocracy would not have asked, as tn
press of this land has asked week after wee
for months, but would have taken more speed
measures.
There is yet an opportunity for the King t
, elect to bring strength to his government
the appointment Of the best men that can b
found to accept portfolios. He can do il Il
day if he desires. In doing so credit comes
himself; confidence comes to the government
the stigma Of dsgraceful conduct in publ
places will have gone with the participant
constitutional ministerial responsibility will t

people will be satisfied. Blu, with anythln
!, short Of this they will not be. 1t is not muc
- that patient, law abiding people ask Of the
King, and all the interests Of his kingdom d,
mands that they be heard. Does the King b
;, retaining the present obnoxious cabinet inf,
his inability to receive them2 or does he pref,

! can be quickly solved, but for the honor Of II
throne we would prefer to see the King nvi
men of right principle to govern with him an
thus accede to the popular demand.
