and scratch his head. IaughterJ
Gentlemen, II can hardly be contended
that the provisional government, and We,
representing the supporters OF that gov
srnment, have submitted our rights to cS-
ist to Col. James Blount Of Georgia ZAP
plause). The president OF tho United
States had an undoubtcd right, so far as
we arc concerned, to examine into the
status here, the situation OF tho country,
ETC., as bearing on the question whether
or not he should continue negotiations
pending when he took his place. That
was ostcnsibly the object for which Blount
was sent TO these shores. Up to this point
there has been no judicial investigation
in which both parties have bcen
given an opportunity to be heard.
"Waiving all these considerations, there
remains this fundamental one, that no
court of arbitration would have tho right
to ignore the great question at issue: that
is, whether or not Liliuokalani had vio.
lated the constitution: had thrown II to the
dogs and had put herself beyond the pale
and protection of the laws. To ignore all
that, and to decide this great issue upon
the purc techicality whether or not Stew
cns recognized the power of this commun-
ity five minutes too soon. or not. was
not in the power of n Judge. Great
applause). repeat there has been no sub
mission TO arbitration. Let MS therefore
challenge all false assumptions, contle-
men, and let that challenge 90 OH record.
Let US hold the president TO tho true issue,
and then, If the legally constituted power
of tho United States, a power which has
the right under the constitution to declare
war, overpower Us, we will go down, our
colors flying and with no misrcprcsenta-
tion possible. Let it be known to the
world that IL that event takes place. II
will bc because the United States has ex.
ercised its power, but not its right. Let
us hope that the showing We can mako
will have an effect on congress in shaping
it's course, and that il will also have its
effect upon the distinguished secretary of
state and the chief executive
After tho undecided character OF tho
news received BY the China, the opinion
prevailed until the arrival of the Australia
that instructions would be received by the
latter vessel for immediate restoration.
Pending the Australis's coming several
important cabinet and council meetings
were held. and il was determined 10 meet
the proposed restoration of tho monarchy
