OPINION Of GOVERNOR
FROM KONA KAMAA|Nl

his policy and the course he has TAX
en-. 1t seems to me as II he adopts
similar policy as Wilhelm the End.
when first coming on the throne of
Germany. The reverse from the old
rule OF the iron hand Of Bismark he
bent his eyes to the poorer classes OF
his people and lent helping hand to
them for their betterment and thereby
gained the great victory which he en-
joys today over the whole of his coun-
try! Yet at the time the world pre-
dicted the downfall Of the same.
Our young Governor in the prime
of life seems from my observation to
adopt this same policy as well as our
most praiseworthy President, Mr..
Roosevelt. and 1t seems that better
ment of all conditions is standing be-
more active men on the head OF adj
ministrations The rich and over-bear-
ing may look on this present policy as
being destructive while not far-sighted
enough to see their own benefit.
What can the rich and powerful dc
when the poor are suffering? Where
is prosperity In country when there
is suffering among the multitude Of its
population which the poorer classes
constitute?
Therefore we are to be delighted tc
see our young Governor taking thu
steps he has so far shown in his triI
around Hawaii. May we hope he vii

trust towards Its administration ant
