HOIST WITH IT'S OWN PETARD.

The Advertiser of yesterday
quotes the following from Todds
Parliamentary Government in Eng
land, which it truly styles work of
unquestioned authority:
Upon the resignation or dismissal
of manistry, it is customary for the
sovereign to send for the recognized
leader of the Opposition, or for some
other person of known weight and
influence in either House of Parlia-
ment, who is capable of leading sue
cessfully the political party to which
he belongs, and to authorize him to
undertake the formation of a new
administration.
1t is constitutional necessity that
the first minister of the crown should
be able to assume full personal res
possibility before Parliament for the
appointment of every member of the
administration.
The sovereign has, indeed, an un-
doubted right to express his wishes
in favor of the introduction or exclu-
sion of particular persons, but by
modern constitutional usage he has
no authoritative voice in the selec-
tion of any one but the prime min
lister. 1t is true that, in this as in
other matters, the expression of a
strong personal feeling on the part
of the crown may have great weight
in excluding person from Office, or
including him, at least for a time;
but even this consideration must
ultimately yield to a regard for the
public interests, and the sovereign
must be prepared to accept as his
advisers and officers of state those
who have been chosen for such func-
tions by the premier.
We thank the Advertiser for the
quotation. What more exact des-
cription of or stronger justification
for the Queens actions in the pre-
sent crisis could be found than in
the above quotations? What has
she done but send for "person OF
known weight and influence" in the
House2 "The first minister of the
crown" is liable to assume full per.
sonal responsibility before Parlia
ment for the appointment of every
member of the Administration.
"The Sovereign" is no doubt "pre
pared to accept as advisers and Off
GERS of state those who have beer
chosen for such functions by the
premier" And yet the Advertiser
makes these very extracts the basi.
of an argument that the Queen has
directly opposed British precedent
and practice in this matter. Go to
neighbor! learn to understand Eng
lish when you read it, and you Won
make such fearful breaks.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1892-09-13

by men who enjoy the confidence of
the majority. without mention
ing names we think we may safely
believe that they are to man of
that class who desire to abandon the
independence Of this country and to
seek annexation to the United States.
Suppose, now, that at the time of
the dissolution of the British Parlia-
ment, the leader of the opposition
were an advocate for a transfer of
the sovereign power from London to
Paris. What would happen? In
the first place no such traitor could
be leader even of faction. But
do we suppose for moment that
the sovereign would consult such
man in forming a Cabinet, even
granting that by some chance he
should temporarily be leader of the
victorious party2 He would be shot
on his way to Windsor. Mr. Glad
stone is as true an Englishman as
Lord Salisbury. They take different
views of minor subjects, but should
there be question of forfeiture of
independence Wings and Tories alike
would cease to know their differences
and would rise like one man in the
defence of national Independence
and honor.
In Honolulu it is different. The
Advertiser and its friends are more
than willing to sell the fairest birth
right of this or any nation for mess
of porridge. 1t is idle to speak of
such men as possessing the con-
fidence of the nation. They do not.
1t is idle to compare such Doodle
politicians with Gladstone, who
loves his country and her freedom
before all worldly things. The Ad-
vertiser's Gladstones remain in the
country only so long as they are
compelled by circumstances. They
would leave tomorrow if opportu.
nifty served, and on their return they
would pose as Gladstones. Such
comparisons bring ridicule on all
concerned. Let the Sovereign act
slowly, it is wiser so to do. But lei
her not be induced by sophistica
similitudes into the belief that the
procedure of England may be liter
ally followed in Hawaii. Let th,
Advertiser pause moment and re
fleet upon the consequences of it
unfair, misleading, and dangerou
line of policy. Let the people of th
Hawaiian Kingdom remember tha
the warnings which emanate SO fre
quently and so solemnly from th
Advertiser office are, when analyzed
found to be by no means matter fo
alarm or even uneasiness. And lie
r them rest assured that in spite o
this bird of i'll omen Hawaii vii
maintain her independence and no
barter it foy gold that may neve
5 come.

THE DAILY BULLETIN.
TUESDAY, SEPT. 13, 1899.

Tomorrow the Ministry will meet
the House. The members who think
of voting against the Cabinet have
a grave responsibility on their hands.
Those of them who are in touch with
our business community know how
grave it is. If the present members
of the Ministry have that business
support which is necessary to tide
the affairs of Government over the
present financial difficulty, and the
members of the House are satified
that they are able to carry on the
business of the country and intend
to do so honestly and honorably for
the equal benefit of all, they should
vote to keep them in Office. Members
must remember that -ly state of
unsettledness Injuries business of
every nature, and they should not
allow private or party feelings to in
fluence them into voting in any way
which will injure the community
Let us have stable government
and some work done.
