COUNCIL CHAMBER,
Honolulu, October goth, 1903.
AT meeting of the Executive and Advisory
Councils held Oct 10Th, 1893, the following
letter was presented and read:
DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS,
Honolulu, October 10Th, 1893.
SIR:-Referring to the immunity from off
cial duties which | have enjoyed during the
past few weeks by the consideration OF the
executive and advisory council, take pleasure
in informing the council that it is now agree
able to me to again assume such duties
In this connection ! wish to call the atten-
ton of the council to the proposition which
has been made by the cabinet to separate the
offices of president and minister Of foreign
affairs, and thereby relieve the president from
the management of the foreign office, and &c
ask their careful consideration of the proposed
change.
Although the state Of my health renders
this measure somewhat important to me at the
present time, | desire that the question shall
be considered impersonally, with the view OF
making the office of president as well as that
Of minister Of foreign affairs as useful and
effective as possible.
have the honor to remain,
Very sincerely yours,
SANFORD B. Dole,
President.
FRANCIS NJ. HATCH, ESQ.,,

In accordance with the above letter and by
vote of the Councils at said meeting, His
Excellency Sanford b. Dole has resumed the
duties OF President, Minister Of Foreign Affairs

The willy trlcksters who are using the
Hawaiian name to secure themselves
another chance at the public treasury,
apparently think this picayune showing
is enough to base claim of political

intrinsic difference between such de-
mand and one Of men owning less than

for control of the business and the
plant Shall the weakest of minorities
averawe the strongest of majorlties
when it comes to deciding the policy
Of such a business enterprise as the
control of the Hawaiian Islands has
always been? There is very little Of
politics about any Hawaiian Govern
ment, past, present or future, except as
incidental and supplementary to the
great business concerns of The group.
What the Government shall do or
shall be is always and ever a
matter Of supreme business moment,
particularly to Americans. 1t might
be measureably different if the
natives were capable of srlf-government
and were Influenced by patriotism and
love of country, but it is obvious that
the most they care for in life is day-to-
day substance and creature comfort,
which is a question Of business, also,
with which, in the helpless aboriginal
condition, foreign capital and enterprise
have most to do. Business now rules
in nearly all countries where the mass
of the population cannot govern itself
1t rules India and Egypt in the name
of the British investor, and properly SO.
1t controls and will continue to CON
troll Hawaii in the name OF the Amer-
can investor SO long as he retains his
majority interest over all adverse com
binations.
