Prejudice Plainly Shown.

Ills strong prejudice against the reform
party is shown by his comments on the
constitutional amendments, which kalaksna
was compelled to accept in 1887. He shows
no appreciation of the magnanimity and
fo,bearance of the leaders in that move
ment, who allowed the King to retain the
throne and revenues which he had forfeited
and did not touch single right of the
natives. He entirely ignores a most i'm
portant article of the revised constitution;
viz, that No exectiye or judicial officer, or
any contractor or employe Of the
government, or any person in the receipt OF
.alary or emolument from the government,
shall b. eligible to election to the Legisls
ture of the Hawaiian kingdom, or to hold
the position Of an elective member of the
same And no member of the Legislature
shall, during the time for which he Il
elected, be appointed TO any civil office TN
der the government, except that of a mem
Der of the cabinet This struck at the root
of the Kings use of his patronage to con-
troll Legislatures. The power 10 appoint
mobiles was taken from the King and vested
10 electors possessed of moderate prop
erty qualification. Thus the control of
the pper House was taken from an ire
,pousible, semi barharous despot, and
ven to the better class Of natives and
y hites. 1t was the only way in which the
property and intelligence of the country
could be assured Of any voice in national
affairs. Colonel Blonnt would apparently
be in favor of leaving all the great interests
of the country to the unrestraned mercy of
an ignorant portion of the population, which
pays about one tenth of the taxes and is
largely controlled by demagogues of the
lowest type.
The frat free and fair election by secret
ballot for twenty Years was held after the

Opium ana Lottery Rings Ignored.

Passing over minor points. it IL surpris-
ing to ind that in his sketch of the leRi sla-
tive session of 1892 he does not allude
to the protrscted struggle between the
friends and opponents of the lottery and
opium rings, allied with the crown, or
to the final passage of the lottery
bill, only ooe white man voting for it, and
the appointment of a cabinet from the ranks
of its supporters. This lottery bill. which
was forced through by wholesale bribery
and tn. personsl Influence of the Queen,
was expected to be source of revenue
which would render her independent of
loans. 1t was also believed that the lottery
company, b4ing outlswed in the United
States, could be relied upon to counterfeit
American influence in the islands. The
virtual sale Of the kingdom TO this piratical
organ zation might well he denounced as
an act unfriendly to the -oited States, and
the omission of any reference to it by
Colonel Blount is significant.
AS thu fret half of Colonel Blount's re-
port proves on examination to be the re-
verse of a Through aud impartial rev. "
of the facts. it might be expected that hi-
account of the revolution of last January
would be equally g,rbed and partisan.

constitution shows how much che dreaded
the effect of its publication, but its main
points are well known. It would hav.
gwen the Queen the power of appointing
the mobiles and would have DISTINGUISHED
nearly all white voters. An important
amendment, omitted by Colonel Blount,
was one to Article Al. to the effect that the
ministers were to hold Office during her uill
and pleasure. No special pleading on his part
can cloak the revolutionary character of her
act. Her two attempts at revolution during
her brothers reign snd her false and tresch-
erous course in regard TO the lottery and
opium bills had destroyed all trust in her
word. so that her alleged retracion. pub
