rate the signing of the first Constitu-
ton of Hawai-. have had the same I'M
der consideration and upon investiga-
ton find the following facts in re the
first Constitution of Hawaii.
Previous to the PRONUNCIATION of the
first Const Tuition the declaration of
rights was signed by the King ON June
Z, 1873 This declaration may be con-
sidered as the Magma Charta of Ha>
waiian freedom. During this year.
1889, the first draft of the Constitution
was drawn up in the Hawaiian lam
guage by the Kings Council at La
haina, assisted by some of the gradu-
ates of Lahainaluna. 1t was not pro-
claimed, however, by Kamehameha III.
until October Sth, 1910, when he did so
at Lahaina Maui.
The rights noted were the perpetual
ton of the officers of kuh nanui and
the four Governors as instituted by
Kamehameha l. whose duties and pow
ers We're defined. A legislative body
was provided for consisting of fifteen
hereditary Mobiles and seven Represen-
tatives who sat in one chamber and
met annually This body had the ap,
pc ntment of four judges and together
with the King and the premier formed |
the Supreme Court of Final Appeal.
The tide to the land on which the |
monument would be erected IS vested |
in the Territory and is now the site
of the Government school at Lahaina |
1t seems proper and suitable that |
