the "cuckoos' could say was that the Cnlleu
States has no right to NEEDLE with the domestc
AFFAIRS and concerns OF Hawaii and that the
House of Represe natives had already passed "a

domestic concerns Of Hawaii" without dwelling
upon the fact that the Democratic Admnlstra.
ton had been interfering for months in the most
offensive manner III the domestic affairs OF that
country by trying to restore a savage queen u
the throne.

vocated or attempted TO justify such interference
except the Administration and its CUCKOO sup
porters In Congress. nor did Admiral walker

in strict harmony with the second resolution
adopted BY the House Of Representatives nearly

SOME DEMOCRATIC COMMENTS.
The commeIRs of many other Democrats were
of different sort. but most of them preferred
not to be quoted. on the ground that they did
not desire ito add anything to the load the
Administration already has to carry on account
