a PLEBEsoITE.

Do our esteemed contemporaries
really believe what they say when
they assert that there is a chance
for the Hawaiian Republic to be an
ne1ed to the United States of Am
erica? Has it ever dawned on their
microscopic minds that Hawaii will
never be absorbed by the great
sister republic without the people
OF this Paradise OF the Pacific signi-
flying their Willingness to dispense
with their independence, and replace
the standard of Hawaii nei with the
Stars and Stripes. The British
Union Jack has waived over these
islands and it was pulled down.
The Stars and Stripes were hoisted
over our official building aud down
they went. Whether they are to
be hoisted again is a matter for
the people of Hawaii to decide, and
the people are not composed Of the
small minority who for personal ad-
vantage follows Mr.. Dole and his
satellites.

We are pleased to notice that our
subsidized contemporaries are adopt
ing the views Of The INDEPENDENT, in
advocating the appointment Of E.
G. Hitchcock as Circuit Judge for
Hawaii. II the good people OF Ha-
waii really desire the appointment
of local jurist, they will naturally
be pleased with the eventual nomi-
nation for the Office of Mr.. Hitch
cock. We don't know whether the
gentleman in question is willing to
accept the Office or not. We simply
speak in the interest Of the large
majority Of Hawaiians who, leaving
politics out of question, think that
Mr.. Hitchcock would be the right
man in the right place. Colonel
Little, who is being very much ad-
verlised by the Hawaii Herald is OF
course impossible as candidate for
the judgeship. Mr.. Gardner Wilder
for whom we have the most friendly
feeling, is too energetic and active
to seek an Office which seriouslv
would interfere with his activity.
AS a sheriff, Mr.. Wilder would feel
in his right element and we believe
the people of Hawaii will feel salts
fed by having Hitchcock as their
judge and Wilder as their chief of
police.
