IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH.

The events of Tuesday, July 3Oth
and the state of affairs several
months prior, should have the effect
Of uniting all friends of good gov
eminent. The condition prior to the
Both was one of unbridled and furi-
Gus license. Those who do not read
the native press can have but little
idea of the incendiary character of
much that it contained. The EleIe
and Ia Olaio, have done their best to
excite that worst of passion, race
prejudice, with what results, a walk
through the streets listening to the
conversation of the natives, will best
show. The instruction of Tuesday
was attempted for the purpose of
restoring the old order of things.
This meant, the Capitalization of
power in the King, irresponsible
government, fa7oritism with its evils.
extravaganza in expenditure, arbi-
trary and increasing taxation, oppres-
sion and corruption, lack of proper
protection to labor interests and to
the vast amount of foreign and other
capital invested in the industries of
the country, and speedy ruin. The
demagogue will not tell these things
to the people, and they go unlearned
till bitter experience teaches the
lesson. The revolution of 1887
gave US Constitution not without
faults, but far better than any
thing Hawaii ever had. By it, con-
st1tutional representative govern
ment is assured. The King is no
longer the prime factor in the gov
ernment, and he ought not to be. |
His position is intended to be sim
lar to that of the sovereign of Eng
and. This position is to be main
aimed. 1t will not be abandoned:
t will not be overthrow OF defeated

traitors to His Majesty King Kalakaua
in his constitutional rights.
The Elele pledges itself to support His
Majesty King kalakaua, in ali his con-
stitutional rights against all parties,
whether they beforeigners or Hawaiians
and will also support His Majesty and
the Hawaiian people against making
Hawaii republic for the convenience of
the clique, who now run Hawaiian
affairs. In all OF which we solicit the
assistance OF the Hui Kalaiaina; who,
time will show, to be the champions OF
Hawaii's independence"
This is only specimen of much
that has appeared in that sheet. It
implies that the present constitution
is hated instrument and oppres-
sive. Also, that an attempt is being
made to deprive the King of his con-
stitutional rights, and that the Cab
met are traitors and secretly work
ing to create republic. Alas! we
are not fit for it
The Hawaiian gazette., 1889-08-13

We publish in another column, the
decision rendered by the Judges of
the Supreme Court, in the matter
referred to them, respecting the
authority of the Cabinet in executive
matters, acted on by the Ministers.
The decision is unanimous. and
leaves no doubt whatever that the
Ministers alone are to be entrusted
with and held responsible for every
executive act of the government. By
this decision the King is relieved of
all responsibility, though giving his
official signature to every document
that requires it. The Constitution
will thus become a power to unite
our cosmopolitan people.
This is the system of government
laid down in our Magma Charta, OBJ
tanned by force in 1887, like that of
the Barons at Runnymede, and re-
sembles the system established by
that great corner stone of British
liberty more nearly perhaps than
any other country. Queen Victoria
never takes part in the details of her
government. She leaves all these to
the various executive branches to
organize and execute. It should be
SO here, and we congratulate the
King in divesting himself Of the
vexatious details and cares of his
Government. and throwing them
wholly on to his Ministers. Like
his great Imperial cousin, he can
now trust his Government and his
people with a more abiding conf
dence, and they viii always be more
ready to award him credit for every !
meritorous act he may do.

ert Wilcox or those who are behind
him. Continued revolutionary at
tempts and commotion can have but
one result, the prompt extinction of
Hawaiian independence, for our for
eign neighbors will maintain order
here if we can not. The prompt
suppression of the revolt of the Both
shows the strength of the present
government and this strength should
be maintained. No doubt the revolt
was encouraged by a misconception
as to the Spirit which lay behind
much of the bitter comment in the
English paper for sometime past.
1t is evident that smaller personal
matters must be put aside and all
honest persons must unite in main
tanning constitutional government.
1t is certain that people will unite
for self protection.

Our attention has been called tc
the following statement made in the
Oiaio, published by Mr. j. E. Bush,
In the DAILY ADVERTISER, published
on Friday last, it is stated that ten for
eigners were killed and five were
wounded.
This is a fair specimen of the
falsehoods uttered from time to time
in some of our Hawaiian newspa-
pers, the sole object Of which seems
to be, in this instance, to satisfy the
desire among the baser class for re
venge for the deaths in their own
ranks. No such statement as that
quoted has appeared in the P. c. A,
nor was there a single foreigner
killed and but one, a stranger,
slightly wounded in the fray.

THE ELELE'S POLITICS.

In its issue of August Sd last, the
Elele says that our comment as to
the injurious nature of much which
has appeared in its columns. is an
unqualified and malicious lie. We
spoke of melting race prejudice and
of the attempt to foment trouble on
account of the present constitution
and government. No better llIustra-
ton can be given of the truth of our
comment than to quote from the
Elele. In its issue of said date it
translates from its issue of july
q, 1889, as follows:
"Never before in the history of Ha-
wall, was an organization so important
as the Hui Kalaiaina is, at the present
time. It's platform cries aloud to the
Hawaiian people to come and save the
nation OF their forefathers, to come and
save their King Kalakaua, His Majesty
His Throne, and His people are sur
rounded on all sides by enemies. even
those for whom His Majesty has made
many sacrifices, are to-day, arraved
against him. Not only are foreigners in
league with Hawaiians, trying to under
mine His Majesty's Throne, but it seems
as though, all the spoil-hunting crowd
are on His Majesty's track. He is
ignored on the one side by His Cabinet,
who are the head of the Reform Party.
The constitutional rights of His Majesty
are trodden under loot. The
people have constitution now, which
was forced on them nevertheless, they
must submit to it, till they elect Legis-
iature which will as sure as day regulate
all the grievances the people have. |

and Hawaiian elements of this Kingdom |

FRIENDS AND FOES.

An editorial in the Bulletin a
short time since, in commenting on
the recent emeute spoke of its utter
fooishness, because that, among
other reasons, the present Cabinet is
certain to be overturned at the com
ing election, and q little patient
waiting would have accomplished
the result. The same article speaks
of the present Cabinet in favorable
terms. 1t is hard to reconcile the
apparently contradictory terms of
the writer. This is however of little
Importance; the real question is.
what are the issues to be presented
to the electors next February? Is it
not fact, that the vast bulk of the
unfavorable criticism which has
filled the papers for months past is
of personal nature? What are the
issues of a character vital to our
political, commercial or social well
being upon which the present Cab
met ought to be defeated? Observers
must be convinced that no small part
of the virulent attacks upon this
Ministry comes really from those not
in accord with the principles of the
present constitution, and who would
gladly see return to the old regime
and to personal government with its
evils.

THE FLOWER PERFUME INDUSTRY.


In some countries a remunerative
industry has been developed in the
manufacture of perfumes extracted
from flowers; and a similar indus
try has now been started in the Fiji
group.
A few years ago the industry was
begun in several of the West India
islands; but the flowers having been
manipulated by negroes, the ex-
ported essences retained negro
flavor that condemned them in the
London market Whether this in
dustry will be crushed in Fiji from
a similar cause, as colored labor is
also employed there, remains to be
seen; but would it not pay whites to
perform the necessary manipuIa-
ton?
There are large areas around
Honolulu, and indeed all over the
islands of the Hawaiian group.
where any kind of flowers can be
cultivated at little expense. Many
Of the areas are almost useless for
other profitable cultivation; but
roses and other flowers, yielding the
best perfumes, can be grown in al
most any soil and with little care.
The chief question is, of course,
whether the industry would pay
sufficiently, and the answer is that
it has been found to pay well in
other countries. The work of ex-
tracing the perfumes is easy and
simple, and females are usually en-
ployed to do the gathering, squeez-
ing, and handling of the flowers.
1t may be important to give this
matter some consideration, by those
whom the industry would suit and
have land for the purpose Of cult
waiting the flowers.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1889-08-13
THE POSITION OF MATTERS.

Comment has been made, that
when the instruction Of July Both
broke out, the Government was sur
prised, and that there was a general
state of "unpreparedness." Europe
is fully armed. Each nation is
standing, like bulldog showing its
teeth, and glazing at each other.
Whether a general disarming would
operate as well to prevent war, is an
open question. But it is certain that
the constant state Of armed prepare
ton is a sure preventative Of war.
Whether required or not every thing
is complete and ready. We are not
Europe, nor a European nation, but
experience has taught US that we
must be alert and prepared. What
then can be thought of the policy in
accord with which, all of the Gals
sons belonging to the eight large
brass field pieces have been returned |
The Hawaiian gazette., 1889-08-13

to the barracks? As field pieces the
guns are Of little use without them.
If necessary to use them at any time
they ought to be at hand. It may be
said that this assumes a difficulty in
getting them from the barracks if
required. 1t certainly is open to
that assumption. All of our arms
and ammunition, worth keeping in
the country, ought to be kept in a
well built arsenal which should be
constructed near Honolulu.

The general commanding the dis
trict which includes Portsmouth
was appealed to by the Lords Day
Observance Association to stop the
Sunday playing of the military
bands He replied that nothing
would induce him to order a band
to play on Sunday, but as it was all
done voluntarily and afforded great
pleasure to many people who
couldn't getit on week days, nothing
would induce him to stop it.
