MOrenO's Letter 20 HouhE
Wilcox, the Revofutionist.
WASHINGTON, March 81 Celso
Caesar Moreno, late Premier to
King Kalakaua, writes to-day to
young Wilcox, the revolutionist, as
follows:
WASHINGTON, d. c.,
March 81, 1890.
My DEAR WILCOX; Your letters
of the 18th of February and of the
18th of March are at hand and their
contents read and digested. Yes,
I am of the opinion and warmly de-
sire that you should be Cabinet
Minister, and with the firm resolu-
ton to entirely deliver your coun-
try and countrymen from the grasp
of greedy and INSCRIPTIONS mis-
sionaries and their accomplices,
who conformity preach in their
churches on Sunday and do all
kinds of worldly tricks and traffic
in their shops through the week
and meddle with politics all the
year round. Besides, they monop-
Olize the commercial finances, all
the Government Offices, justice, the
police and have grabbed all the
best land of the kingdom. The mis-
sionary fraternity in Hawaii is a
| calamity worse than leprosy for the
Hawaiians. My fervid wishes are
for your success, out | fear that you
and your native colleagues will fail
in the end.
The missionaries and their con-
federates are too deep, too acute,
too intriguing, too able for you and
all your native Hawaiians to sue
cessfully contend with them. You
Hawaiians are too good-natured,
too honest, too timid and too gener-
Gus. The sentiment prevails to
reason, interest and to everything
else, while in the missionaries. your
antagonists, the interest and greedi-
ness reign supreme Next May,
when the Hawaiian Parliament
meets, you yourself must without
delay and without reserve make
motion of want of con-
fidencc in the present m s.
sionary Ministry, followed by
another for the impeachment of the
Ministers, Chief of Justice Judd and
Rev. Mr.. Carter, Minister of Ia
wall to Wash ngtOn, for having be-
trayed the confidence of the Ha
waiian King and people in framing
and proposing treaty in 1889 to
the American Government for the
annexation of the Hawaiian Islands
to the United States. Minister Car
ter is the public laughing stock in
Washington, and his principal aim
in the aforementioned treaty of
| annexation was to become himself
and his brother-in-law, Judd, both
Senators to the United States Sen
ate in Washington from the State
of Hawaii, and he, Carter, and his
missionary wife have been for sew
eral years boasting of it among
their friends.
I have good reason to believe
that President HARRISON and Secre-
tary of State Blame not only did
not give any encouragement to
Minister Carter in his annexation
scheme against the will of the Ha-
waiian King and people, but they
and the Republican party will pre-
vent any other nation, as it was
done in Samoa, taking possession,
therefore Hawaiian independence
and neutrality are assured for the
present, much against the will of
the missionary ring in Hawaii. If
you Hawaiians are determined to
be your own masters in your own
country you must be united and
repudiate all Hawaiians who in the
past have been the tools of the
missionaries, such as the spy and
traitor Iaukea, for the reason that
the missionaries retain solely their
tools, their money and their lands
for long time. In your success you
must be modest, just and benevo-
lent, even generous, but firm with
friends and free to listen to no non
sense, gossip and calumnies. Other
wise, the missionaries will begin
their old work by sowing the seed
of discord among you and your col
leagues, as they did in the past,
especially in August, 1880, with
Bush and Jones, and after few
weeks or days you and the other
Cabinet ministers will become enc
mics of each other.
Then King Kalakaua will as ever
be a victim of the shrewd MISSION
aries and side with them and the
missionaries again like vampires
will rule and ruin tho Hawalians.
Our friend, John E. Bush, ought to
be a member of the new Cabinet,
provided he will comprehend that
any intercourse between himself
and the missionaries or with their
underlings, no matter how long or
short. will be fatal for him and for
