HAWAIIAN DIFFERENTIATION.

Opium. lottery. whiskey. leprosy. in
dolence. and inability to rise to the de
mands of modern civilization. seem to
he working out the same results with
the native Hawaiian as with the .Ameri-
can Indian. The 100000 natives which
Captain Cook found a little over a cen
fury ago have dwindled to $1,000. The
appearance of the ambitious and ar
Cressive Saxon upon the scene seems
to have driven all spirit and energy out
of the native Hawaiian. Thcnceforth
he was simply an Idle and curious locker
on in his own land.
The royal party attempted IL revive
the pristine race feeling in 1865 by intro
ducing the old heather religion and en-
deavoring to undo the successful labors
Of 40 years of Christian missionary labor.
A body of several hundred medicine
men was created for the purpose of sub
jecting the people to the fear and con
trol of the sorcerers and the crown. In
1874. King Ktlaukaua elaborated the
sss''Ai VI nv
enish practices. revived the worship of
the fetiches and higher divinities. and
became himself a head sorcerer and
god. He caused the legislature Of so
late a date as 1856 to create a Hawaiian
board of health" composed of sorcerers
organized to spread the practice of idola-
try.
Even the late queen seems to have
secretly encouraged the heather prac-
tees and protected the medicine men in
order to retain hold on the natives. She
also is charged with conniving with the
lottery and opium rings. both of which
have a strong hold upon the natives. At
length the whites have grown in num-
bers. wealth and power. until they are
stronger than the natives. 4 minority
of the latter have embraced the civiliza
ton which has come upon them and will
be borne along with its fortunes. but
the majority courts inevitable extermina-
ton by clinging to the ancient heather
dom.
The Chinese are saved from the temp,
tations of civilization by habits of un-
firing industry and economy. The Jap
anese add to the industry a Iove for
Saxon enlightenment. But the average
Hawaiian. like the average American
Indian. unable to embrace "a life of hum
drum toll and tame knowledge. seems
doomed to the inevitable determination
of the savage. The few survivors
even are liable to lose their indenfity
and be gradual, merged in the ail-con-
guerinr race.
