Americans had been taken into the cabinet

overtopped their idea Of duty and gratitude

The missionary party grew into powerful
organization that kept forcing itself forward
until In the end 1t had practical control OF the

and the Hawaiian people a constitution that
was favorable to It's own interests and under
this constitution the king had virtually no
power. but was forced to sign whatever meas
ures the cabinet brought to him. 1t was known
the 'bayonet constitution because of the
absolute forcing of 1t upon the king.

occurred in 1891 and which was the result of
broken heart. Although succeeded in ridding

The armed forces of this government made
the overthrowing Of my government possible
and deprived me of these lands.
my REIMBURSEMENT of authority stated that
Il yield to the superior force of the United
States OF America and not to the forces of
revolutionists; and now to avoid any collision
of armed forces and perhaps the loss of life,
do. under this protest and impelled by said
force, yield my authority until such time as the
government of the United States shall undo
the action of its representatives and reinstate
me in the authority which claim as the con-
stitutional sovereign of the Hawaiian islands.
This | did in 1898, when was induced to sur
render my authority in order to avert blood
shed. That action was represented to me
proper temporary step.
II am now reconciled to the change of gov
ernment In Hawaii but l am too loyal to the
United states to be willing to be the occasion
of reproach to this great nation when future
historians shall tell how the government was
enriched by accepting, without compensation,
land 1t had assisted in taking from a weaker
sovereign. Hawaii has cost this nation moth
ing: but besides adding valuable lands to this
nation by its acquisition. 1t has been source
of cash revenue amounting to over $40 0OO, OOO
Il do not want to end my days knowing that
my Hawaiian people will always feel that this
nation respects only the right of armed force"
