M0TT-SM|TH'S VIEWS
Concerning News From
the Hawaiian Islands.
UNCLE SANS WITHDRAWAL
Will Afford England or Germany
Chance to Step in.
UNCLE SANS WITHDRAWAL

BosToN April In an interview witt
the Hawaiian minister, ). Mott-Smith, a
his home here, he was asked for an eXpres
sion of his views on the Hawaiian ques
tion in the light of the latest news from
the islands. He said that the Withdrawal
OF the United States protectorate over tn,
islands opened awide range of possibilities
Ii seemed To him that an impregnable po
sition had been surrendered, and that TIA,
United States could not now protest il
case of an uprising OF the discontenteC
and lawless element there; the provisional
government should appeal TO the Englisl
or German or Japanese minister, and thu
latter should give assistance and perhap
occupy the very position which this coun
try has inst abandoned.
What Hawaii Needs
is a stable government and IL would no
be surprising If now the provisional gov
ernment should turn 90 some other quartz
to secure it, He failed TO understand VIII.
the protectorate had been withdrawn. |
would still be necessary TO negotiate with
the present government of the islands, ant
the question Of the protectorate had no
affected and could not affect the negotia
tions. He did not see how the new condi
tion Of affairs could give any encourage
ment to the royalist party. The overthrow
of the old government was the logical out
come of years of development.
The Recent Revolution
had simply brought about the inevitabl,
result somewhat sooner than IL was ex
pected. But that result had now teeI
ncquiesced in by Queen Liliuokalani
Princess Kaiulani, and all the Intelligent
population of the islands. Besides, the
provisional government is amply strong
enough to maintain itself, and if it can.
not secure a stable form of government foI
the country by annexation To the United
States, it can appeal to England or Ger
many, either Of which powers would un
doubtecly be glad to respond to any over
