Hawaii Holomua, Volume III, Number 165, 17 July 1894 — Failure No. 2. [ARTICLE]

Failure No. 2.

It wems that tho government is d**siroos of getting into a row. We b.tve tried to uvoid the cl«sh whieli mnst ultimntely happen if the present line of policy »nd tho present tone of the official papers «ro t•» be continned. Euongh has b**en said as f«r as the jury is concerned. Mr. Hatch !i«s fnlly rec<'gmZed his ins«ne standing, and he admits tli«t his spite against the editor j of the Holomua, g<»t the bost of his eommon sense. The Hamakna term is virtnally ;»nd the c«ses whieh were to be tried before a Hawaiiau Jnry h »ve gone over to the Hilo term —six months frora now. j # i As st«ted before the Court in Hooolnlu, has beeo unahle to get » panel of jurors to serve at the ’ term next month. Mr. Match has raade hu egregious ass of himeeli and be knows it. We are j ready and willing to help any | combin«tion that advances the prosperity of this country. We l»ave used eommon sense in oor eude«vors to frustrate tho fal.se id»*as advocated and circulated | by Mr. Bush and corap«ny, but every etfort of oor. every struggla and every attempt to “smooth” | things over, have beeu cancelled «nd put to naught when the proj»osition was made to try Hawaiians before a foruign Jury. lf this pnneiple was applied to i both sides, we might say nnthing [ «gainst it. Foreigners will not be tried by a Hawaiian Jnry nor 1 wiU Haw«iians be tried by haoles. J It is a grent pity that the footishness of Mr. Hatch—a man withoot foresight, withoot polit- I ie »1 seuse and without ordioary decency, shoold previal. AU that we h«ve tried todo,in establishing a st«ble goveruraent, is lost. Tbe ' uucertamty ānd strife eome to tbe fore again. The Haieaiiane • tcill die hefure they give up the i 1 right to be tried bg their countrg- | r nen , aod we don’t hlame tbem !
