THE AWAILAN QUESTION
STILL OPEN.

Commissioner Blount has been
made Minister to Hawaii, Mr.
Stevens having insisted upon the
acceptance of his resignation. 1t
is fortunate that Mr.. BIount's
anomalous position in the Sand
wich Islands has thus been re-
duced to tangibility. He had been
sent on purely private errand by
the President, and it was question
able whether he was exercising his
functions constitutionally. Now,
he has a recognized and legal
status. Not a single clue has been
given as yet to the attitude of the
Cleveland administration towards
Hawaii's request to be brought
within the jurisdiction of the Uni
ted States. Meanwhile the oppo-
nents of annexation have been
working desperately to create an
adverse public opinion. We have
only one further word to add at
this time to our former discussions
of the subject; If the United States
shall definitely refuse to accede to
Hawaii's request, this country
must not stand in the way of Ha-
waits pursuing any further course
that she may choose. Let US play
no disgraceful dog-in-the-manger
part. England, at least, appreci-
ates the incompatible advantage
of Hawaii as a point of call be-
tween Vancouver and Australia,
and while England realizes the
priority of the natural claims of
the United States and is willing
that this country should OBJ
tain the islands, she will not feel
herself compelled, in case of our
refusal, to turn a deaf ear to the
overtures that will doubtless be
made to her by Hawaii. England
will be perfectly Justified in accept
ing Hawaii's proposal, and she will
proceed at once to fortify the isl
ands as impregnably as Bermuda,
Malta and Gibraltar. 1t is hard for
a person of some information and
some sense of national duty and
honor, to read most of the news
paper arguments against annexa-
tion without wrath and disgust.
Mr.. Blount's report will be awaited
with extreme solicitude. Mean
while, Mr.. Lorrin A. Thurston, a
very prominent and highly estim-
able citizen of Hawaii, has been |
to relieve DR.. Mott |
Smith, as Hawaiian minister at |

was reopened, Mr.. McChesney should
be allowed to bid again.
MIR. Waterhouse thought the bids
should be reopened.
Mr.. Carter said, in justice, Mr..
Porter should stand by the bid or,
if not, it should be given to Nc
Chesney.
Mr.. Carter said it would be best to
let McChesney have the option.
The matter was referred to Presi-
dent Smith, to act as he thought
best.
President Smith brought up the
matter of the new quarantine build
ing, and explained why he and Mr..
Carter, Of the building committee,
with the advice of the executive
council, had ordered the building to
be erected. 1t would cost about
$1,000, and would accommodate all
the immigrants expected June Goth.
An effort to have interested persons
aid had failed. Therefore, with the
approval of the cabinet, the building
had been commenced, and would be
paid for out of the appropriation for
the maintenance of quarantine build
ings. II the appropriation ran short,
as the necessity was great, the gov
ernment would be obliged to make it
good. The board of immigration had
not helped because their appropria
tion was almost out.
G. B. Reynolds said the building
was separated from old buildings.
Mr.. Carter thought the appropria
tion could be used. The auditor
general had agreed that such use was
legitimate.
Mr.. Waterhouse moved the presi
dents action be approved. Carried.
A letter from DR.. Henri McGrew
was read asking for leave Of absence
for three months from July L, as he
wished to travel abroad for his
health. Granted.
Action was deferred after discus
sing as to the appointment of his
successor.
The matter of tenders for supplies
vas referred to the executive officer,
he secretary of the board and presi- |
lent for report. They will meet this
morning to compare the bids.
At AIS PM. the board went into
session.

Little or nothing has transpired
here regarding the contents OF
Minister Blounfs reports to the
United States government. Some
time ago dispatch was published
in the Eastern press intimating
that Cleveland would favor a pro-
tectorate over Hawaii. The Phila.
Record of May Both published a
dispatch, dated at Washington the
day before, which contains the fol-
lowing reference to the subject; :;
"The reports sent in thus far by
Mr.. Blount from Honolulu con-
firm the Presidents view that a
protectorate rather than annexa-
ton is most desirable in our future
relations with Hawaii. The pres
ent attitude of the Administration
appears to be one of watchful nom
interference, with a determination
that no other Government shall
in Hawaiian affairs. The
Provisional government at Homo
lulu will be recognized as long as
it maintains itself"
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-06-20

The vote which was taken lately
by the natives in the Hawaiian
Evangelical Association, on a reso-
luton to call on the Provisional
government to show their respect
therefor, proves that the more the
natives are brought into connection
with civilization and christianity,
as mentioned by Minister Blount,
the more they learn to appreciate
the responsibilities of citizenship.
And these natives are not slow in
seeing the necessity for upholding
the temporary form of government
which precedes its permanent
establishment. Had the ex-queen's
power of attorney to Mr.. Neumann
been published before the vote in
question was taken it would doubt
less have been unanimous.

Speaking of the estimation in
which lotteries are held in civiliza-
ton, and remembering Papa Nord-
hoff's Endorsement of the ex-
queens lottery scheme lately, we
cannot refrain from quoting the
following conservative comment on
the Ensenada lottery scheme made
by a leading coast paper; "At
least some of the men mentioned
as engaged in the Ensenada lottery
scheme have been held heretofore
as respectable members of society.
If they have now concluded to for
felt that reputation, the lottery
project must promise big money to

The New York Herald has a new
editor-in-chief in the person of E.
s. Drone. He has been connected
with the Herald for many years. 1t
is said his appointment is
the result of Mr.. Benefits newpol-
icy to recognize publicly the long
service of his employees. Mr..
Drone is 81 years of age and before
his connection with the Herald was
a lawyer of some local distinction.
1t is just probable that Mr.. Drone's
appointment may mean that Mr..
Bennett intends to withdraw his
personality still more from the
Herald.

Charles Foster, ex-secretary OF
the treasury under President Har-
rison, repeats the old financial
warning that is so often sounded
and so seldom needed. Mr.. Foster
permitted himself to run into debt
by indorsing business schemes
which he was unable to personally
oversee, and found himself unable
to call in his assets when difficulty
came. A careful reading of the
history of his failure, as published
by himself, shows there is no
ground for the attack made upon
the ex-secretary by the New York
Herald for political capital.

The cable returns to the United
States from Europe show there
will be considerable shortage in
crops there this year. Great Bri-
tain, Germany and France will
fall short in cereals, while Austria,
Holland and Russia have promise
of fair crops. In the case of Rus
sia, however, little can be expected,
as the bulk of her crop will go to
make up the reserves used during
the recent famine there. The out
look at present is that the crops of
America and India will be in de-
mand at sellers prices.

coURTsHIP AND MARRIAGE
an American Writes Suggestive
AI1eeoEy.

|
! AI1eeoEy.
| Mr.. EDITOR: Have we not all OBJ
served that a young lady, however
beautiful, attractive and in every
way desirable she may be, if she
lets it be seen too clearly that she
strongly desires to marry particu-
lar person, makes it less probable
that she ever will marry that one?
We who know Hawaii best are of
the same opinion as those who have
seen her but few times, or who
have only had glimpses of her
that on the whole round globe there
is no other manageable lady more
pretty or winsome than she.
There came crisis lately in her
young life. She had great reason
to fear, from the fate of many of
her young friends, that she would
be taken by violence and forced
into an unwilling union with some
robber king-a union which would
be disgraceful to her and ruinous
to her reputation, because not the
outcome of courteous and honor
able love; because her consent
would not be asked Gas theirs had
not been in the case of her friends)
and, above all, because it would not
be an honorable marriage, and
would be consummated against her
will.
In this real peril she went in
haste to the one friend whom she
had admired, loved and had been
most intimate with from her child
hood, because he had first loved |
her. This friend had educated her,
brought her to be Christian and |
greatly enriched her. He had, in
fact, bestowed upon her millions of
his own wealth, spending freely
81, 100000 upon her education
alone. She now went quickly to
this friend and proposed that they
should be married. Her friend,
whom she believed to be also her
lover, seemed to be ready and made
definite proposals; then he began
to hesitate and finally drew back
the proposals he had put forward
said he would think about it more
deliberately and would inquire how
large a dowry she could bring him.
So she had been kept in embarrass-
ing and awkward suspense, while
an inventory of her property, house,
lands, servants and so forth is being
made.
In the mean time her fears have
oeen justified. As soon as it be-
came known that she was in some
crisis the dogs of war of her preda-
,ory neighbors began quickly to
orowl and growl around her. If
she had not been protected by the
powerful friend to whom she had
some one of them would
undoubtedly have carried her off
,y force. Many fair maiden less
young, beautiful and
lefenseless, had been carried into
captivity by them.
She herself had twice been taken
aptive for a short time, but had
he rare good fortune to be set free
gain, owing, undoubtedly, to the
interest her near and strong friend
7as known to take in her. This
tate of unsettled suspense, which
as continued since January, for
We months and more, is becoming
umiliating, and in time may be-
ONE disastrous.
1t is increasingly evident that it l
J time she were married to some
ne, to avoid the evil fate of her
-iends. If Hawaii's nearest neigh
or is so very doubtful whether he
-ishes her, would it not be well for
er to let it be known that she may
BON seek an honorable alliance
sewhere? HAwAn-PoNoT.

The armored cruiser New York
has outspeeded the best record by
a knot an hour. Vessels of the
same class have been designed in
the. British navy to steam %
knots, but they have thus far
failed to accomplish the feat. The
cruiser Blake, which attracted so
much attention at the naval re-
view at New York, was one of
these, but her speed fell below
20 knots. Prominent among the
vessels of other nations are the
Russian cruiser Admiral Korniloff,
with record of 19 knots; the
French cruiser Tage, with 20knots !;
and the Spanish cruiser Reina
Regente, which, before the advent
of the cruiser New York, beat the
world with a record of 204 knots.
The New York has gone the
Spaniard a knot better, notwith-
standing the fact that she carries
five inches of armor and heavy
protected deck. The splendid
speed attained by the New York is
likely to put England and Europe
on their mettle in naval improve
ments.

The royalist campaign seems tc
be degenerating into one of person
al abuse, if the ex-queen's news
papers are evidence in the case.
The course being pursued of late
strongly suggests to the pub
lie that the supporters of ex-
royalty are endeavoring to
cover the inherent weakness
of their cause under the dust of a
personal counter attack. 1t would
please the average citizen much
more if the two leading, or mis-.
leading, royalist newspapers would
drop the 'sneer and the lie," and
begin with an argument and a
fact-that is, if they can produce
such sustaining the ex-queen's al
legged cause.
