FOR HAWAIIANS.
Rev. S. E. Bishop Says Annexation
Would BE for Their Benefit.

Star Newspaper:-Jud Hart does
me the honor to quote some good
words ! am glad to have written about
the Hawaiian people-just when / do
not now remember.
| hope that l am not less their true
friend than those persons who are
constantly inflaming their minds
against annexation as being robbery
of their country and nationality.
I regard annexation to the United
States as the safe harbor of refuge of
indispensable necessity to the native
Hawaiians. AS long as Hawaii re-
mains an independent state the neces-
sity of maintaining strong govern
ment will tend to increase the natural
tendency to push the weaker and less
capable Polynesian race to the wall.
AS "A state or territory of the great
Union that necessity for strong gov
ernment will cease, and American in
stitutions will guarantee and secure
10 the native Hawaiians all equal
rights and franchises. 1t do not see
how any wise and intelligent friend
of the Hawaiian race can fail to urge
them to seek at once the protection OF
the Starry flag.

caster has been it beats all how MANY dry
opinions there are on such damp subject
The latest plan advanced here is TO go up on
the narrow point near the ScOol house. drill
enough wells to supply the town. put on
enough windmills to pump said wells dry.
Dulld a reservoir To hold said water. and lay
pipes 70 conduct it down town This scheme
Is well worth looking over. The place is a
narrow ridge and we would only have to
drill about $50 feet, it wouldn't take more
than about So wells and windwills to get an
average of 6O.00O gallons of water a day that
would be at least half as much water az we
need the water standing in tanks would be
NICE and warm in the summer and nice and
