upon national confidence. They are
themselves, by three-fourths mai
GRITTY, less identified with the native
race than great many of the people
whose claims to voice in affairs
they affect to despisc. 1t is doubt
full if three out of the four members
of the Cabinet are not destitute of
sufficient patriotic attachment to
hold them in the country after their
deprivation of office. Scores of
people whom they have the audacity,
by their spokesman, to taunt with
gratuitous meddling in Hawaiian
affairs, arc identified much more
closely with the progress and devel-
opment of the nation than them
selves. Not few foreigners who
have neglected the national franchise
have yet become linked in even
closer union with the realm by in
termarriagc with the native race.
Some have invested fortunes in the
development of local industries, and
literally bestowed their means upon
the civilized institutions of the coun-
try, being especially generous to
those designed for the elevation of
the native race. Is it in the capacity
of the present rulers of the kingdom
to say that such people as these have
no claim to respect for their views
upon national politics?
The Government clacquers, how
ever, 60 even further. They as
sumo that the foreign electors
opposed to the Government leave out
of their calculations all regard for
the welfare of the native element !;
that their own selfish interests are
alone sought to be promoted in
efforts to overthrow the Ministry.
When it is considered that a very
large proportion of the foreign cleo
torate is identified with the national
life in similar degree to the class of
non-voters described above, it must
be concluded that the resources OF
assurance have been balikrupted to
produce such gratuitous insinua-
ton. This conclusion is emphasized
by the fact that foreign gold pays
the expenses of promulgating those
mischievous assertions, designed tc
poison the minds of natives ant
supplemented foreigners agains
that portion of the population which
constitutes the mainstay of Hawaiian
civilization, industry, commerce anc
general national progress.
