The Memorial.
1.-The Hawaiian people are moved with the
deepest concern In view of the delayed and
uncertain condition of affairs in Hawaii. and
kalso of the active hostility that seems to
have suddenly developed in the United
States against the policy of your excellency
and the American administration regarding
our unhappy little country, and the JUS,
restoration of our national monarchy"
1t then reproaches the newspapers OF
America for their unchivalrous and un-
truthful abuse of our queen.
1t asserts
l. That through Ministe. Stevens con-
spiracy the Hawaiian people have been de-
prived of their political rights.
2 That the inhabitants of Hawaii are now
living under an arbitrary rule.
j. That the people have lost all confidence
in the administra ton of justice, as the Su-
preme Court Is now filled with adventures
L. That the public funds have been squan-
de-ed for the maintenance of an unneces-
sariiy large army. composed entirely oi
aliens.
8. That all the native and foreign royalists
have been disarmed A...ls.
9. That foreign clubs and leagues COM
pOScu HOSlly OI GerHlanS, portuguese and
Scandinavians have been called into ex-
istence for the support Of the revolution
airy government.
Z. That these clubs have threatened mur-
der, violence and deportation against those
not in sympathy with them
The memorialists say that though the
principle Of monarchical government NAV
be distasteful TO the radical democracy OF
America, it is the chosen and preferred
form of the Hawaiian people, Therefore
they say in conclusion:
I'VE now pray the God of a common
faith that. right, Justice and honor prevail
ing, Hawaii, our home and country be again
allowed to enjoy the blessings of an indie
pendent autonomy and constitutional re-
gime, Which was so UNANIMOUSLY subyerted
