Another Reverend q

1t was Of course to be expected
that any clergyman who could be
admitted to Mr.. B.ouuts pre-
sence would belittle the Hawai-
ians and al the foreigners who
befriend the Hawaiians We
have in former issue dealt with
the so-called reverend S. E.
Bishop and we will today quote
a few Of the statements made by
another so called reverend the
manager Of the North Pacific
Pastoral Incubator DR.. (0 {. VI.
HYDE. We wall remark that Mr..
HYDE whose instincts are evidently
are more gentlsmanly than those
of his above mentioned collie
ague's does not indulge in
quite so much personal abuse
as does the. reverend, but
confines himself to abusing the
Hawaiian race as a whole. He
says among other things, In all
my intercourse with young Ha-
waiians l have met only one
whom | would call worthy the
name of student, capable of
abstruse thought, the study of
principles, the acquisition of
scientific and philosophical ne
thods." That certainly if true
speaks very badly for the teachers,
but we are inclined to believe
that none of them, decidedly not
the reverend Doctor q, have ever
required themselves, any seienti-
fc and philosophical methods or
are capable of any thoughts,
except how to get houses, land
and money. The Doctor (O blows
his own tin-trumpet by saying, Il
have shirked no responsibility nor
any burden of toll and care in
doing all / could for the Hawai-
ian people" If he. as he claims,
has done all that he could-and
the result is as bad as he says
his ability and general capacity
as teacher and preacher must
certainly be very microscopic in
deed. OF course the Hawaiian
Jury system is condemned. Moth
ing is said about the foreign
ilries whose records are decided
" at a par with those of the
Hawaiian. The reason why the
Doctor % objects to Hawaiian
iuries can be seen in the follow
ing remark. I'VE cannot,
SAYS he, trust business interests
to the decision of a Hawaiian
jury. La the management
of the Kamehameha estate, of
which | speak from personal
knowledge as one of the trustees
under the will of the late Mrs. c.
r. Bishop, we are forced to put
up with an inefficient administra-
ton of much of the property
because no Hawaiian jury would
be likely to give US a verdict ac
cording to the law, and evidence
that means in favor of the
Hyde bound estate.
The Doctor O. received con
siderable attention in his Chris
tian CD crusade against Queen
Liliuokalaui aud the indepen.
dence of the country which has
fed and broad-clothed him for
nearly twenty years from one of
the Congressman who spoke on
the McCreary resolution. The
Hon. Mr.. McDannald closed his
excellent speech supporting Pre-
sident Cleveland by the following
remarks:
There is one more point to
which desire to call attention.
/ approach it with difiidence, and
yet constrained b. my sense OF
duty as representative of my
people on this floor. l believe.
it is the duty of every citizen to
defend his country against unjust
accusations. 1, moreover. believe
il is my duty to expose here, the
tiimsy pretense, that the present
usurpers of authority in Honolulu
stand in any sense for the Chris
tian sentiment of this country.
| know there have been gentle
men rushing before the public
and claiming to represent the
Christian church while defending
the acts of lot of land
grabbers. l know, too, that
one gentleman has been quick
