One special feature of the
meeting of this club was speech |
by Mr.. ID. Logan, editor of the Bulletin, |
on the subject of annexation Mr.. |
Logan said that he had always believed |
that when Hawaii could no longer re- |
tain independence her natural destiny
was to become part of the American |
Union. There were people, however,
vino had been in this revolution from |
the start whose sincerity toward annex
alton to-day was open to suspicion.
Some avowed anneXationists were |
also favorable to more Asiatic immi- |
grafton, the very thing that was likely |
to hurt the cause OF annexation ON the |
Pacific coast. Unless annexation was
to be the outcome of the Republic, it |
would be better to have the monarchy |
restored than a sugar republic with the
prospect of an interminable series of |
resolutions.

earnest appeal to the membership to
