story.

he said. ''He had heard that the phre-
nologist thought of buying a horse.
He had his head examined, and his
bumps revealed surprising things.
Your tastes are the simple, home
~ and pure tastes of a farmer" said
the phrenologist, "and a farmer

The horse was knock-kneed, it was

The following is a translation of a
letter found in the Archives, written
by the old chief Kekuanaoa to the
great historian Guizot when the latter
was Prime Minister of France The
letter is remarkable as being written
10y one of a people not generation
from barbarism. It presents a pathetic
picture of a good man bewildered by
the perplexities Of his situation, and
vet is not without a sincere straight
forwardness both Of purpose and argu-
ment that gives If something of the
statesmanlike quality. Historically it
throws light on two or tree much
controversial questions of early Hawai-
ian history. The letter is as follows:
Honolulu, Oahu. December 10, 1S41.
To His ENeellency VI. Guizot, Premier
of the Kingdom of France, Greeting:
Having been informed that your Ex-
eelleney is a kind and an upright man,
and have under your charge the settle
ment of all foreign matters, I there
fore am most DESTROYS of bringing to
your knowledge some of the difficulties
we are experiencing in Hawaii.
One of the difficulties that is now
threatening our very existence is the
importation of liquors from foreign
lands In the days when this people
We're still in the dark, foreign liquors
were in common use here. The men
and women, chiefs and common people,
all drank liquor from day to day. Be
fore the importation of foreign liquors
we drank fermented sweet potatoes,
mountain apples, watermelOns, sugar
cane. and ii root. Our condition then,
however, was much better than now.
After the importation of foreign hq-
uOrs. riots became common, and our
condition most critical. Since then, |
and during the time of Kaahumanu l., |
a little light dawned upon US, and we
then learned TO write. had schools and !
were taught the word of God which /
has been brought here and which was !
the cause of our enlightenment The /
chiefs through this enlightenment then l
realized the evils of drink. and Kaahu- /
manu- and others prohibited the use of /
this great cause of evil-the selling of i
liquor as well as the use of it. This /
action restored peace amongst us.
In the year of the Lord 1882, Kaahu-
manu- I. died, and riot again became
rampant. because the cause of our
peace had gone TO her rest, and we
once more were made to realize the
great evil of drink. It was at Oahu,
here, that the most danger was. how
ever. realized, where most of the for
eigners who were selling had their
shops. This CONTINUED to the year of
the Lord 1888
The chiefs, realizing the danger if
no restraint was placed on the traffic,
again sought to make new laws which
would again restore that peace we had
formerly experienced. They ena stel
some verv widespread and stringent
laws, and the use of all kinds of lIG- /
uors was prohibited by the new Pre- j
mieF, Kaahumanu III. No liquors were /
allowed to be landed except vine. Il
Under this law we again obtained
peace, which continued to the year
1899, when Kaahumanu III. died In
the same year, in the month of July. :

ELECTION AND BUSINESS.

"No, sir-no, sir; we shall have
nothing like a return to business until
this internal election is over,' said
the man with red whiskers as the
groups of three or four were talking
about the hard times.
Well, I dunno" replied one of the
others. "They said that a presiden-
tial election always hurts business, but
l never could figure out why it
should"
81 guess there's good deal of i'm
agination about it, added second.
Gentlemen" said red whiskers, "a
presidential election knocks business
into a cooked hat, and the reason is
so plain that a blind man can see it.
Yesterday / met my friend Stringer.
" Who's your candidate?' he asked.
CT told him.
90 He ain t in it, says Stringer.
" Bet you so cents.
% EDone!'
''And we put up the money and
walked away. That money is taken
out of circulation until after election.
we got another bet of 60 cents and
another of IS, and their money is also
withdrawn from circulation to the det-
riment of business. Have I made it
plain to you2'
Three of them said he had, but the
fourth observed:
"I'm grocer, and I haven't no.
ticed any falling off in my business
In fact, it's booming"
"But I can't see what booms it.
"Oh, / IN stakeholder for three or
four bets, and to keep the money in
circulation I'm using it myself. +"

by the Popish teachers. A good many
years ago we were all worshippers of
images: but during the reign of Llho-
liho the images. tabus, temples, and
false gods were deserted. Men and wo-
men have ever since eaten together,
and of those things which were former
" tabued. Because of this act of Lii
holihO, to overthrow the old system Of
worshipping images, one of the most
influential chiefs OF Hawaii called Ke-
kuaokalani, rebelled, and battle was
fought. Kekuaokalani thought the false
gods were going to assist him in the
restoration of the old system of reli-
gious worship, and would also help aim
to take unto himself the kingdom. and
was therefore determined to fight Liho-
Tho, the son of Kamehameha l. In
tbs hattie Kekuaokalani was slam and
Liholiho was victorious. This battle
was fought in the year 1919. ami all
Oh account of the images. Since IL en-
the possession of images as we'll as the
worshipping of the same has been pro-
hibited in this country. This law was
strictly enforced before the arrival of
the American teachers with the word
of God We were therefore fearful of
the POpish teachers, because we saw
that they had many images, and il our
opinion their prayers were like o.
prayers of old. To US an image IS
synonymous with an attempt to divide
the kingdom, it is also considered an
act of hostility to the King; and those
who possessed images were severely
punished. Knowing and feeling this,
we sent away the foreigners who pray
ed to the images. They were not sent
away because they were Catholics, be.
cause we did not at that time know
what Catholics were; nor did we send
them away because they came from
France. All we knew was that their
mode. of worship was similar to the one
prohibited in our country.
Because of these things our troubles
are never at an end, and we therefore
inform you, (great and kind man that
you are) of them, in order that you
may have a true knowledge of the
facts, and thereby be enabled to do
away our difficulties. / believe it best
that new treaty be made and
this one discarded because it is so one
sided I also believe that a new con-
sui should be appointed, one who is
hIHu ana upright IHdG we may prosper,
and this nation made like unto your
own, and also that the $4,000 which
vas taken by Laplace be returned.
/ trust that the people of all nations
shall be at peace in the future. We
realize we are still ignorant and want. |
ng in many things, but we are earnest |
V striving to obtain knowlege and shall |
ieem ourselves fortunate if the con- |
slant interference made by foreign |
nations should cease for all time. There |
ire a number of foreigners here, who
ire spreading false reports of US, and
Who are trying to get possession of |
he country without our permission and |
hereby causing us no end of trouble.
With the greatest of respect to you
md your King, / remain,
Your obedient servant,
