Now that our country is much agi,ated with
the question OF what sort of government we
are to have, and our government has displayed
utter disregard for the wishes of its people in
selhshly holding on to those whom the nation
has branded with its disapprobatiun, some
fearless souls among our own people have
uttered important thoughts which il is well for
US now to consider
We would suggest and urge is not this a
suitable time TO get up meetings Of citizens in
each electoral district, for the purpose OF pet.
toning the king to do away with this cabinet,
for the many reasons we have previously sci
forth TO our counirymcnl This is a good time
for the nation to rouse itself and cast off our
treacherous leaders, who aredrawing us towards
the bad, and will ere long plunge US into sea
of trouble.
This government has been disgraced before
the whole world by the actions of this cabinet
The purposes of our government, as displayed
by this cabinet are utterly abhored. The king
has been made to appear contemplate by these
ministers. Our government has been robbed
10y the iniquitous expenditures Of this cabinet,
so that the treasury is empty. The ministry
have been very active in making extravagent
and useless expenditures of public treasure.
The ministry are now engaged in raking in the
funds Of the department Of education into their
ruthless hands and so it will be until all is
gone.
1t will be very disastrous for us to sit ind.
dolently by while such wrong is being enacted,
until we are driven completely TO the wall
This (idiSJes Iaije) might answer If ii were
possible for us to regard with compacenoy the
proposition for annexation that is now being
raised in America-and the present cabinet are
not unfrendly to this move, Gibson would by
no means be the last to enter into such plan,
for he is well versed in deeds of treachery.
Before he (Gibson) and the whole cabinet has
time TO bring about such an iniquitous scheme,
we ought to nip it in the bud. For that reason
il is wise for us to hold such meetings as have
been mentioned.
We set forth this thought anew and shall
dwell upon il again. Let us carefully select a
body Of strong, fearless soldiers to stand on the
side of the nation in the legislature of 1854,
soon to come, let them be thoroughly true and
independent. Let us stand firm like soldiers,
fearing nothing, and strive to overthrow this
iniquitous cabinet. Like the voice of Napoleon
appealing to his soldiers and saying "who burns
to follow me as go TO subjugate the Aus
TRANS, building bridge Of solid rock over
which to march to victory over our enemiesl'
a." and a." and a." and so on until a
strong company of soldiers is raised, with which
to repel the enemy. The result wouldbe victory,
and the attainment OF the object of the leaders
In truth the desired points were carried, the
armies Of France were victorious.
Bad ministers are the enemies of Hawaii,
and the nation ought to stand ever ready, and
to provide body Of true soldiers for the defense
Of Hawaii.
The Pae dina asks who is true patriot,
and lover of his nation, let him stand up and
prove himself soldier for his country by his
deeds, who are the men who would say 81"
and a." and 81" until the number of 2S
strong men is complete.
The Pae dina predicts that the victory will
rest with Hawaii. Do not tire, nor give over,
nor stand idle.
Rise then Hawaii of Keawe Rouse your
self Maui of Kamalaawalu. Stand up Oahu
of kakuhewa. Come Kauai of Mano. Join
in Molokai of Hina, and let lis be of one mind
then there will be no doubt of our success and
victory, and traitors shall be rooted out OF the
land-God save Hawaii'-Ha7Ouii Pae lima,
