For fifty years this policy has simply
been that the United States did not
desire to annex the Hawaiian Isl
ands, but insisted upon their re-
naming independent and would not
permit any other power to annex
them. This position, moreover, was
established not only by precedent,
by official correspondence with Eng
land and France, but also by the
treaty of 1887. We already hold all
the advantages of this Gibraltar of
the Pacific, without any OF the grave
entangling responsibilities, naval,
military, financial and political, that
would be involved by annexation"
Naval responsibilities are just what
the navy wants. The argument is
subterfuge calculated to enlist the
craftsmanship of the navy and it did.
The following is from the New
York Herald, February Is, 1898:
"For a Naval Station. Naval au-
thorities are so confident of the rati-
fcation OF the Hawaiian annexation
treaty that they are already talking
about what should be done toward
the permanent est Establishment Of a
naval coaling station in those islands
However, this may be,
navy officers hope that there will be
no delay in using the available funds
for dredging out Pearl Harbor just
as soon as annexation is an assured
fact. After this lie done the question
Of defenses for the harbor will be in
order. Without proper defenses
Pearl Harbor as base Of supplies
for the Pacific fleet will be WORTHLESS
in war times, indeed, worse than
useless, as it would be equivalent to
furnishing ammunition to the enemy
having superior force. This matter
of improving Pearl Harbor will, of
course, go over until the next adj
ministration but the subordinate
officials believe that the present
would be a good time to begin the
preliminary Of surveying, etc, so
confident are they that annexation
will prevail. They are also hoping
that the present Congress will make
provision for a Hawaiian cable in
order that work may be CONNIE need
during the coming summer" This
is as charming piece Of assurance
as could we'll be-. Not "the old flag"
but Pearl Harbor sand an appro-
priation."

the annexation and provisional
scheme has made trouble in social
circles, trouble in the church and
business relations, so ruthlessly have
the planter annexationists pushed
their revolutionary scheme and pur-
pose among their own class. An
American or other foreigner who
does not go in for annexation must
keep quiet or suffer persecution in
church, society, and business"
Again, "From the Hawaiian stand
point the question Of annexation
may be dismissed in a few words.
1t is unpopular with all classes.
There is but small clique Of Am
erican agitators and schemers here
who desire it"-Letter from Homo
lulu by native ten days before the
revolution, in New York Herald,
Jan. 81, 1898, quoted above). Aud
again. "From my acquaintance with
the Hawaiian population of this ISL
and-Oahu-I can assure you that
the people had no part in the plot
which resulted in the dethronement
Of their Queen. They are one and
all friendly to the United States and
desirs our friendship; but with q
very few exceptions they wish for
their independence and the restora-
ton OF their Queen X II all
means are employed to create de-
mand for annexation the
papers here publish absurd aud un-
founded rumors Of interference by
the Japanese and the foreign pow
ers, all of which are designed to
reach the United States and to influ-
ence public opinion there. Govern
ment officers, no matter how compe-
tent, must go If they do not favor
the schemes OF these men, 1t is by
no means free country here" Let-
ter from Henry @. Carter, New York
Herald, April %, 1899
Finally: The Queen of Hawaii
raises her solemn note OF protest.
"Hawaiians detest the very thought
of annexation. 1t is not antagonism
as vet IN the TTnited Stataa but IT, is
the overwhelming grief with which
our native eyes shall behold any flag
surrounding our fair shores, except
that one which is associated indel-
IDLY with the memories Of our
glorious past-glorious not in might
and battle, but in the noble efforts
of our nation to clothe itself with
the fair robe of enlighten ment, reli-
gion and commerce."

THE AVERAGE VIEW.

The average press editorial says !:
"The attempt of the Queen of Ha-
waii to abrogate the constitution OF
the islands and establish q despo-
tism, etc.," was the cause OF the re.
coil. The Queen in her protest
says: shortly after my accession l
made tour of the islands. Nothing
could be more affecting than the
loyalty of my people. But from
every side petitions came pouring
in, imploring me to give them a new
constitution. They contained thou
sands OF signatures, the names of
those from all classes who felt by
the existing constitution the natives
we're deprived of their just and in
alienable rights. / would not de-
prive one white man of one legiti-
mate right, but under this constitu-
ton any newly arrived white man,
without interest or intention OF resi-
dence, is placed as a voter over the
heads Of thousands of my subjects,
to whom God has given these ISL
ands and no other home; besides,
Hawaii is as dear to the Hawaiian
as America to it's people" Think of
that state of affairs, ye great Ameri-
can voter. Who is responsible for
that constitution The missionary
reform party" as represented by one
Lorrin A. Thurston Who is Lor-
rim A. Thurston 2 Formerly a pow
erful member OF the government,
loyal to the Queen.
As to these islands becoming the
property Of other nations, Harrison,
in his message accompanying the
illegal contract OF sale yclept
treaty to the senate, adopts the
same specious plea. " 1t is essential
that none OF the other great powers
shall secure these islands," How
fallacious this argument is, has been
shown by the remarkable letter to
the European edition of and printed
in the New York Herald, Feb. 20,
1S93-remarkable for its cleverness
conciseness and completeness. % y
