Why Hawaiian National Guards
should waste Taxpayers gunpowder
in honor OF great American pa
triot passes all understanding. They
will want to salute Garibaldi next.
Tha Government must have plenty
OF money to burn and waste. 1t
had better first pay its lawful debts.
This is cringing the neck and fawn-
ing the knee in spirit of the rank

ing the threats of the "family COM
pact" that unless the United States
would annex these islands they
would be offered as cast off refuse to

during the present Legislature, and
which the administration doesn't
know how to tackle, while the ques-
tion OF annexation is hanging FIRE.
There is one item which ought to
have the attention OF the Govern
ment and the Legislature, even il
annexation in their minds is assured.
Hawaii ought to be properly repre-
sented at St. James, fact which
must be obvious to everyone familiar
with existing conditions. The late
Consul-General Manley Hopkins,
held no diplomatic position, and
since his death no appointment has
been made to fill even the consular
position. We believe in having Ha-
waii represented by an official with
diplomatic rank in England II
that has been the case now, the
vexed question OF the claims by
foreign citizens would have been
settled long before at less expense
and to mutual satisfaction. The
fact Of Hawaii being non-represent-
ed in London is simply another.

TOPICS on The DAY.

The radical" members of the
Legislature declare openly that
they will oppose the appropriations
suggested by the administration for
the settlement of the indemnities
demanded by the British and other
governments. Should the Cabinet
be defeated on its policy in this
matter. it will have good reason to
step down and out. Mr.. Dole would
meet some difficulty however in
finding any suitable citizen, willing
to form cabinet, the first duty of
which would be the dealing with a
British ultimatum.

THE GOVERNMENT AND THE
LEGISLATURE.

This mornings Advertiser strikes
key note in regard to the relations
existing between the Government
and the Legislature, and both bodies
should seriously reflect upon the
thoughts uttered, presumably, by
the ex-Minister and not inexperienc-
ed politician who is responsible for
their utterances.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-22

As the writers of The INDEPENDENT
have repeatedly pointed out the
blame Of the present very inconveni-
ent situation OF affairs is due to the
one.sided character OF our rulers,
the oligarchs, and their practically
self-elected Legislature. The people
have had no hand in the selection Of
either the Government or the Leg
islature. These have assumed power
at the nominal request OF about one
seventh of the voting power of the
people, and consequently while
welding nominal majority are
opposed by an immense majority in
opposition to their views.

The laws OF God and man are
seldom continuously violated with
impuuity, aud there are two other
laws of higher import to the human
race than either, and they are more
relentless to the "man who waits"
than either the moral or civil code,
and they are the laws of revenge
and retribution.

As it is not generally underst ood
or remembered by curb stone po-
liticians that cabinets can no longer
be ousted by votes of want OF con-
idence, The INDEPENDENT recalls to
their memories the fact that the
constitution provides that the Cabi-
net shall be "remouable only By the
President With the consent of the
Senate" and further that the Presi-
dent can remove one member OF his
Cabinet with the approval OF three
members OF the Cabinet" Another
interesting fact to be borne in mind
also is that "the President shall not
be bound to follow the advice OF the
Cabinet, except in the instances
where by this Constitution, the
approval OF the Cabinet is required
as prerequisite for his action" 1t
may we'll be asked what is the differ
ence twixt tweedle.dum and tweedle-
dee, the oligarchical republic and
the monarchy. If annexation should
be defeated during the present
session Of the Legislature it might
be wise step to make some pro-
vision for converting Constitu-
tional Convention to remodel and
amend the peculiarly framed
primary law called by courtesy a
Constitution.

An almost unanimous majority in
legislature, unless faced by an
active and intelligent minority, is
the most dangerous support that a
Government can possibly have. Its
very strength makes it cumbersome,
unwieldly, tyrannical, and eventually
careless and treacherous. The time
comes when it becomes absolutely
unmanageable, it then disintegrates
and rebels against its legitimate
masters through the pressure OF the
public will gradually percolating
with increasing force in it's ranks
through the units of its organization.

The history of politics in every
country proves the truth Of the
axiom that the best government for
a free and liberal people is strong
government with a strong opposi-
tion. The one is the life sustaining
blood of the other. In Hawaii at
the present juncture we have neither
one nor the other, nor shall we have
either until the people speak their
will through the ballot boxes next
year.
BY 1899 the political conditions
will be ripe for the atmosphere clear
ing thunderstorm OF an election.
We shall either have been annexed
or the troublesome and wearisome
anticipation OF annexation will be re-
moved from the field OF politics.
By that time also the errors Of sour
best government" and OF its own
peculiar Legislature will be putres-
chile, and as Denis Kearney used to
somewhat coarsely say "will stink in
the nostrils of high heaven and the
people, and even the man in the
moon hold his fingers to his nose in
disgust"
