OF the people. While the queen
has acted hastily and been ILL
advised, they consider themselves
aggrieved, and with the queen
would bear these grievances until
they can be righted rather than to
have their government overthrown.
A touching letter from John F.
Colburn, Minister of the Interior,
native Hawaiian, to Mr.. J. H.
CAM of St. Louis, whose wife is
aunt to Mr.. Colburn, has been
forwarded to Washington together
with one from Mr.. GAM eloquent
ly portraying their grievances from
the foreign element in the popula-
ton, who they denominate usurp-
ers. They claim they accepted
the provisional government under
protest, and because an armed
force occupied the city, and beg
the United States government to
use its power to right wrongs "and
uphold the weak and friendly
nation, that imploringly begs to be
heard in its own Defense" In his
letter John F. Colburn says:
owe have asked that the steam
er take our representatives so that
both sides of the case can be
heard, and they refuse. We will
send them later. We trust it will
not be too late. Cannot America,
the land of the free and the home
of the brave, right this great
wrong, that she by her ambassa-
dor, assisted to do? Will you use
your influence for US? Act prompt
ly, and may God assist you and
help you. Yours with considera-
ton and respect"
Special messengers from the
queen bring dispatches to Wash
ington outlining Enthusiastically the
queens wishes and these will de-
termine in a measure the destiny
Of the islands.
James G. Blaine Though dead
yet speaketh" and his statesman
ship with unerring foresight meets
the question as it comes before the
people. He said in a letter to the
Hawaiian minister in 1881:
"The United States was one of
the first among the great nations
Of the world to take an active
interest in the upbuilding of
Hawaiian independence and the
creation of a new and potential
life for its people. 1t has consist
entity endeavored, and with success,
to enlarge the material prosperity
of Hawaii on such independent
basis. 1t proposes to be equally
unremitting in its efforts hereafter
to maintain and develop the advan-
tages which have accrued to
Hawaii, and to draw closer ties
which imperatively unite it to the
great body of American common
wealths.
In this line of action the United
States does its simple duty, both
to Hawaii and itself, and it cannot
permit such obvious neglect Of
national interest as would be in
volved by silent acquiescence in
any movement looking to lessen
ing of those American ties and the
substitution of alien and hostile
interests. 1t firmly believes that
the position of the Hawaiian
Islands as to the key of the
dominion of the American Pacific
demands their neutrality, to which
end it will earnestly cooperate
with the native government.
And if through any cause the
maintenance of such a position of
neutrality should be found by
Hawaii to be impracticable, this
government would then unhesita-
tingly meet the altered situation
by seeking an avowedly American
solution for the grave issues
presented"

ANNEX HAWAII.

lust now topic Of absorbing
interest agitates statesmen OF the
United States and Great Britain
Hawaii is seeking annexation to
the United States and we must
answer now once for all. England
has wanted this ocean pearl for
two generations to add to her
terra of kingdoms. 1t is quite in
her line to annex islands and prov.
inces to increase her territory
The advantages to England by
incorporating Hawaii into her
kingdom are as great as they are
to the United States of America
Hawaii is midway in the vast
transcontinental routes Of COM
merce from the western seaboard
to the orient and Australia. Hon.
olulu is of immense Importance to
our national needs, either in a
financial way considering our COM
merce or in time of war, and year
by year the Importance of it
grows on us. Honolulu and the
Hawaiian islands are in the line Of
the natural highway of every
crossing line of commerce across
the Pacific. For England to secure
it would be to give all of these
advantages to her.
ct would give her the halfway
station she has SO long coveted
between British Columbia and
Australia and New Zealand. 1t
would give her the lacking strong
hold to complete the line of cir
cumvallation which she has drawn
around us, which begin with the
Notifications at Bermuda; the cable
thence to Halifax; the Notifications
there; the Canadian Pacific rail
way, and ending with the forti6ca-
tons at Esquimault."
Forty years ago the question
came up and opinions were freely
passed pro and con. WI. Marcy
the then secretary of state, was
opposed to it, and his letter sent
to the United States minister to
Hawaii at that time, was presented
to the United States senate few
days ago, and is thought by some
to fairly present the views of the
present administration. However
we need not be premature in de-
Gliding what our government will
do.
American citizens own 100000
of the 100000 valuation of the
islands, English capitalists rank
next The elements which have
combined>to the overthrow of the
present government are those that
control the financial and business
interests of the island. Statesmen
and hnanciers generally express
the opinion that something should
be done at once to prevent any
other power from getting control
of the territory.
A poll of the senate and house
recently taken by a correspondent
OF the New York Herald, showed
eighty-three representatives in favor
of annexation to forty-six against
it,with seventy-seven noncommittal.
Ex-secretary w. l.. Marcy said in
his letter of 1852, disappearing OF
Incorporating as an independent
state:
Il understand that the measure
proposed by the people and that
IN which the present rulers are
supposed to concur is annexation
as distinguished from protection,
and that it is their intention that
these islands shall become a part
of our territories and be under the
control Of this government as fully
as any other of its territorial pos
sessions. Should the sovereignty
of these islands be transferred to
the United States, the present
government would, as a matter OF
course. be superseded by, at least
