W1LCOXS SILLY LETTER TO
MORENO.
Something to be Contrasted With
His Former Eulogies Of
Annexation.
The Washington NeaoS says :

reached this city. Celso Cesar Mo.
reno received two letters from friends
in Honolulu which shed considerable
side light upon the exciting events in
the faraway island-causes that led up
to them and the outlook from the
standpoint of the citizens.
Robert w. Wilcox, one Of the
writers, is prominent in Honolulu and
exceedingly well posted upon Hawaiian
affairs. These letters, together with
copies Of the latest Honolulu papers,
were laid before President Cleveland
by Mr. Moreno.
Here are the letters
Honolulu, May 80, 1893
DEAR FRIEND MORENO; Every
thing here in Hawaii is very quiet, and
the people are waiting patiently what
course the United States will take for
the settlement of the state of affairs in
Hawaii mel.
AS everybody knows, the present
Provisional Government has been es
tabished by the ex.Minster, J. L.
Stevens, with the forces of the United
States, namely, the marines Of the
United States steamship Boston.
Without Mr. Stevens interference
nothing would have taken place The
rightfu government of the Queen
would still exist. United States Min
lister Stevens took everything in a
high handed way and brought about
the detbronement of Queen Liliuokala-
nj without any good cause, but only
for the ambition of having his name
made famous. But his action is only a
disgrace for him and for the country
which he represented. Every upright
American here does not approve of
Minister Stevens conduct. Moreover,
the missionary crowd is holding the
power which Mr.. Stevens has given
them through the aid of the United
States force of arms Fortunately
President Cleveland has honored Ha.
wall with an impartial man, the Hon.
!. H. Blount, who will refer the truth
to President Cleveland. The Hon. !.
H. Bount is receiving both parties
with impartiaity.
The Provisional Government is up
held by mercenary soldiers, consisting
of deserted sailors of the lowest element
of human nature, and they are com
handed by a man of degraded morals,
fugitive from justice.
Another happy thing for the OPP
pressed and much abused Hawaiians
is the arrival of Charles Nordhof, who
is exposing the true facts in the Amer
lean press,
The Provisional Government tried
to prosecute this gentleman in order
to stop him from exposing the infamous
work of these missionary leaders of
Minister Stevens. But fortunately
Minister BIount interceded for his pro-
lection. Some socalled prominent
men of this opera bouhe government
are talking openly of assassinatlng Mr.,
Charles Nordhoff and also the Queen.
Everybody here expects that the United
States will do justice to the Hawaiians
by restoring their Queen.
As the Provisional Government is
finding out that the United States vii
not have anything to do with their an
nexation scheme, they are trying tc
throw mud on the royal family of king
Kalakaua dynasty by sending abroad
four statesmen to tell all kind o
stories-"no blue blood" etc. Kins
Kalakaua dynasty is from the island
of Maui, and sprang from the mos
5 powerful and proud family, Keawe-a
Heulu and Kameeaumoku.
This family stands as high as TIT
Kamehamehas in blood, if not higher
, with the only exception that Kameha
, meha became a conqueror without TIT
assistance of Keawea Heulu, Kamee
, aumoku, etc. Kamehameha could no
of himself have completed his grea
work, the unity of Hawaii into on
kingdom.
The Provisional Government i
very unpopular and very weak, but a
! the people are awaiting what cours
: the United States will take so tn
, Provisional Government will exist
little longer to damage the prosperit,
and the good name Of Hawaii nei.
The military officers of the Provis
ional Government have stolen tn
crown of King Kalakaua and the Pro
! visional Government pretends to hav
= no knowledge of the theft. Every Ha
, waiian stands for unity and for Quee
t LilIuokalani and for Princess Kaiulan
the Crown Princess.
The missionary faction don't wish t
work i'll the right way by educating tn
q people first towards anne Xation, NJ
, they have no idea If annexation vii
some justice about it. In short, hi
annexation scheme. is got up s. tn
J. United States will spend some million
i of dollars in Pearl Harbor, and natuI
e ally America has to by their HON,
stead. there-it is all for pelf f.
!. power also, because they could blInc
fold the United States, They hay
ost their political power. Here the
are nobody. Poor Stevens is f,r an
T. bitions sake, Poor Stevens was
