OUR ILLUSTRATIONS.

On the first page Of this paper
appears view of Iolani Palace, the
state residence of their Majesties
King Kalakaua and Queen Kapio-
lani. To the left of the Palace is
the Bungalow, in which the insur-
gents took refuge after being
driven from the field pieces.
This building is an ornate struc-
ture of wood, two stories, and
used by the King as Offices and
private reception quarters. The
Queen has also q suite of rooms in
it. There was much costly furni-
ture and articles of bric-a-brac in
the building, the loss on which from
the riflemen's fire is very great. Be-
yond the bungalow and Palace wall
can be seen the upper portion and
cupola of the Hawaiian Hotel. To
the left of the hotel but not visible
in the picture is the United States
Legation, where the detachment of
marines from the U. S. s. Adams
was stationed for the protection of
American residents. A company OF
the Honolulu Rifles was stationed in
the Hotel grounds at the rear dur
ing the day. Right behind the Pa
lace beyond narrow street called
Palace Walk are visible the square
towers of the Household Guards
barracks. Inside the wall on that
side is the powder magazine invisi-
BILE in the sketch. The Palace and
its surrounding park are enclosed
by substantial stone wall some
eight feet IN height, indented with
strong solid gates ON all four sides.
like that seen in front.
A few rods eastward on the oppo.
site side of King street and fronting
Punchbowl street is the famous old
native stone church, in the tower of
which were stationed sharpshooters
and behind ITS high stone wall q
strong detachment of the Honolulu
Rifles. Nearly opposite the church
ON King street the two-story man

sion of Mr.. j. A. Hopper, COM
handing a view of the Palace yard,
was occupied by sharpshooters. To
the left of the bungalow may be
seen the top of the Hawaiian Hotel
Stables, from which some of
the worst execution of sharp
shooters was inflicted on that shelter
Of the rebels. A little below the
Stables sharpshooters, under some
cover Of the dense foliage, posted
in Postmaster General Wundenberg's
residence all day harassed the re-
bells.
The Hawaiian Opera House is .
handsome structure of brick stu
ated nearly opposite the front en-
trance of the Palace ON King street
where the horse cars are seen in the
Palace view. In the upper story, on
the roof and in the cupola OF the
Opera House sharpsbosters were
posted, half dozen of whom be-
gan the fight for the Government.
To the east OF the Opera House,
across narrow street, is the Gsv-
eminent yard containing Aliiolani
Hale, the capitol building OF the
Kingdom, also new building
("Kapuaiwa") containing the Gov
eminent Survey and other public
offices. In the tower OF the main
Government building sharpshOoters
were also posted after its capture
from the rebels.

A great mistake is made by some
people when they look upon Wilcox's
attempted coup @etdt as similar
movement TO the Reform revolution
and justifiable by that event. We
admit that it is an open question
whether the scheme of the Reform
League was absolutely necessary
and wise-that is, whether the posi-
tive necessity of securing constitu-

tional government might not have
been obtained within n reasonable
period by peaceful agitation. Apart
from that question, however, there
are many points of difference be-
tween the two attempts-the sue
cessful and the unsuccessful-at
overthrowing the Government of the
day. In 1887 the people were re-
piled to in their constitutional agita-
ton, by threats of expulsion or
murder of foreigners, by active war
like preparations as if for the carry
ing out of such threats, and by con-
stantly aggravatiug wrongs of adj
ministration. When the League was
ready for action, after an independ-
ent press had long given warning
that serious measures would he
taken if reform was not granted
without, peaceful counsels still pre-
vailed with the agitators. They
chose to voice popular grievances in
a mass meeting, the show of force
to protect which was even called
forth by the Cabinet admitting that
it was coming out anyway. The
King ostensibly met the League
halfway by message of concessions
presented at that meeting, and His
Majesty was only further confronted
with forcible measures when he
| showed disposition to avoid his
own promises to the people but a
few days old. In 1889 we have
Cabinet that has passed the approx
al of two sessions of the Leglsla-
ture. Admitting the worst that has
been charged against the administra-
ton, its faults have been almost eXclu-
sively matters of detail. Its general
policy issummed upin the words"eco-
nomy and internal improvement"
as against the ruinous ante-revolu-
ton process of riotous extravaganza
at home and useless waste of money
upon foreign affairs. We do not
say that the errors of this admins
tration do not merit its extinction at
the polls, but we assert that they
do not call for that last resort of an
oppressed people, the violent over
throw of their rulers by arms. The
Reformers-mistakenly or not is be-
side the question-saw no hope OF
redress at the polls. The Reform
Government, judging by long cur
rent talk-not only among its out
spoken opponents from the start
but among many who believed ir
the original Reform Party's policy
only consider such has not beer
faithfully carried out--was certain
of being upset at the near approach
ing general election. Indeed, witt
a good alternative Cabinet to pro-
pose, a platform wisely drawn, and
reputable standard bearers on the
part of the Opposition, it would
have been an uncommon triumph OF
constitutional politics if the Ministry
should survive the general elections
Therefore, the attempt of Wilcox
and his Liberal Patriotic Associa
tom to remove the Cabinet an(
depese the King was essentially
traitorous, outrageously foolish, ant
enormously criminal.
