winter at Wiesbaden.
Speaking about her and her plans,
Mr.. Davies said "There has been a
great deal said and telegraphed about
the position the Princess bears toward
the Queen. They talk about the
Princess being willing to take the
throne. Now the position is simply
this: The Princess is perfectly loyal
to the Queen. There can be no ques.

the Queens lifetime except at the
Queens request, SO all this talk to the
contrary is entirely unfounded. 1t is
question that has never arisen and can

anything but carry out the Queens
wishes. She has been represented as
heading some other party. There is
only one party of Hawaiians and they
are represented by the Queen and the
Princess, as her heiress. The Princess
went to Washington, not in her own
interests, but in those of the Hawaiian
throne and nation"
AS to the future of the nation, SO far

"protect" Hawaii, unless satisfied that
the nation wants it. Every official of

him with the belief that justice is in
