BOSTON, May 2.-Goyernor Sanford
Il, Doe, whose administration of the
Territory of Hawaii has recently re-
ceived the fun approval of the Presi-
dent, arrived in Boston Sunday. He
went at once to the home of his nep-
heW, Rev. Charles r. Dole in Jamaica
Pain.
When seen by a reporter he said that
the result OF mis- conference with the
President was eminently satisfactory.
Regarding the situation in Hawaii
Governor Dole said that before the an
neXatiOn the suffrage was based on
a property qualification, and there was
AnO trouble. Now there is almost un
| limited suffrage the weakness of which
was shown in the friyolities of the last
session of the Legislature, which spent
the whole session in passing impOssi-
Bile acts.
The future is probIematical," said
the governor but l am inclined to
think that the matter VIII work itself
out satisfactorily. There is large
number Of young men growing up to
suffrage with American Institutions.
This will make for good among US.
Then too, We are having many aces
sions from the United States. These,
as a rule are good citizens, and may
be depended upon to uphold good gov
ernnieut. With so many forces work
ing for a betteTment of conditions the
turbulent element must be queIled.'
Governor Sanford b. Dole, of Hawaii
addressed the congregational club, OF
which he was a guest, at its dinner in
Lormer Hail Monday. lie was intro
duced by President Henry NJ. Moore,
| and spoke briefly on the present condl-
/ ton of the islands. There are, he said,
about 5000 Hawaiians ana Portuguese
on the islands who were voters and
about 1000 Anglo-SaXons. He said Bos-
/ ton did not seem to understand Hawai-
| very we'll probably because the Ha-
Waiian trade was largely with san
I Francisco and New York. Missionaries
90 to convert the natives, but besides
doing this these same missionaries
. have introduced the Fourth of July
! with all it's human significance. Ha-
/ wall has accepted the friendship of the
! United States, and now it wants every
thing in sight from the United States
| every best influence. 1t should be born
| in mind that Hawaiians fought in the
/ Civil War, ana some Of her younger
soldiers had helped capture Fort Fish
er She also gave the North General
Armstrong, land now We've given you
| the whole country"
He said a little money was needed
for harbor improvements, docks and
public buildings, but, more than any
thing else, what was needed was the
recognition of the American CiViliza-
ton which is growing up in the Ha-
waiian Islands, and which today Is
hard at work to carry out American
principles and make them permanent.
