traitors to their country, this being at time
when the ministry were only few days in
office, and the members of the ministry had
not come to a mutual understanding. The
great reason for this failure Ito call special
SESSION. is the fear that if they were to lay this
proposition before the Privy Council and it
were to be negatived, it would be evident that
confidence was not felt in them, and that
they must leave. But if, on the other
hand the plan was to be approved by the
Privy Council and the Legislature should meet,
strong efforts would be made in the Legislature
to depose them from their seats, because the
people have been enlightened by the many
thoughts set forth in the newspapers that are
published each week. For this reason, the
actions of the tickle were uncertain. ia

AT the present time this Cabinet is being
driven to the wall by the blameless onset Of
the newspapers, which is showing up their
worthless actions. So that our accusations
against this Cabinet formerly set forth, showing
why they should not have confidence reposed
in them are verified, for we have with us many
witnesses to the right on our side.
For under the administration Of the present
Cabinet there is beginning to be great outcry
by the people, there are many complaints by
the taxpayers in numerous districts, the office of
assessor in some districts has been transferred
to the tax collector who has made new assess
ment; in some districts the amount of the taxes
has been greatly reduced; there has been
attempts made recently to raise loan Of $500,
600 and not dollar was obtained there has
been rupture in the relations between the
Premier and the French Minister; important
new public works started to close the mouths
OF the members of the Legislature have been
allowed to lie still such one and such a one
is about to begin operation on the Pail roads;
but it is to lie over for thirteen months through
rainy season; the health of the people is an
obscure thing to these men; the honor of the
office has been dehled; the only thing that
speeds with them is the squandering of the
public money on useless works; our King is
reviled on account of the deeds of this ministry,
because the people Of the land do not put
confidence in them, neither do foreign govern.
ments respect them.
AT the present time we suspect that Gibson
is conducting the government on the line along
which he tried to lead Pilipo and Nawahi in
1873 at the Hawaiian Hotel, and along the
same route as that followed by certain one
whose history, which we have read, narrates
that he went on revolutionary expedition
among the Pacific Islands, and came near
involving the United States in war with
Holland, from which this government barely
extricated itself; and then he was sent on
a mission to Hawaii mel, and failed; and
perchance there is in his secret thoughts an
dream prompting him to realize
in the future what he failed to accomplish
in the past.
But we ask who shall care for Hawaii?
Birds Of this sort of feather? No.
Hawaiians, let US jealousy guard our own
country, and shield it from these venomous
flying serpents.-Fae dina. sd.
