KA LEO O KA LAHUI.

"E Mau ke Ea o ka Aina i ka Pono."

 

The Injustice in the Constitution

     We have endeavored in all our efforts to show to the public, that our new Constitution was an outrage upon the rights of the natives, and was constructed with the view to rob and take away all the power from the Hawaiian people, and through the influence of wealth to boycott the vote of the working classes.  Teh division of the Legislature to-day is a fair sample of the working of the Constitution.  Of twenty Nobles there are only four Hawaiians, the remaining twenty-four being haoles, and they are the body to approve or disapprove any nomination for successor to the Throne of Hawaii, which the Sovereign may nominate.  This shows the sense of justice and Christianity, which prompted the leaders of the revolution of 1887.  Under a thin excuse the Government was overtured for no other purpose than to rob the King and Hawaiian people of their rights which they enjoyed as a free people.  Now, a successor is soon to be nominated, and that person is to be approved, or not, by such men, as Nobles.  Von Tempsky, Walbridge, Marsden, Anderson, and others of the same iik, some of them a few years before they came into this country were broken-down miners and ploughmen & c, and men who were elected as Nobles through the exclusion of the native by a high property qualification, for voting for them, and under patronage and influence of wealthy missionary sugar planters.  The outrage and the barefacedness of the intention of the parties to the movement, which brought about a new Constitution, is so obvious, that the more honorable minded of the leading element that took part in it, are heartily ashamed of the share they had in the matter, and of the injustice which has been done to the rightful people of the country.

 

THE ABSENTEES.

     The want of respect of the public for the decisions of the four little kings of this country, has been very plainly shown to our lamented Alii's funeral, and thus the event has proved how fully right the LEO O KA LAHUI was, about the "discontents."  The persons slighted in the programme of the ceremony, and to whom the ministers refused to give satisfaction, have been conspicuously absent from the cortege; and, although we are glad that some of the LEO'S suggestions were acted upon and did prove as successful as we expected them to be we onluy regret all the more that all our propositions were not equally accepted, therby preventing all friction and helping to make the ceremony more unanimous, respectful and solemn.

     The adoption of our suggestion about giving to Admiral Brown a place in Hon. Cleghorn's carriage was not only a courteous token of respect and affection to the Admiral and through him, to the people of California, but it also rendered possible the presence of the representatives of Portugal, England and France who would otherwise have been absent.

     But the just claim of the Legislature based on undeniable constitutional precedence, was stubbornly disreguarded by the officials who only respect the second Power of the Kingdom when they fear its sessions, and as a consequence of this, only six nobles and three representatives followed in the procession, these being probably less anxious of the dignity and rights conferred on them by the People than of the vanity of parading in public; all the other members appear to have very properly taken the only course left to them in the circumstance, viz., abstention.

     And so it was with the members of the Privy Council and of the Consular Corps, whose absence from the place assigned to them was very glaring.  The members of the Bar, twenty in number, had assembled in the morning with the intention of walking up in a body, but as none of the officials in charge ever ga e them any attention, they quietly disbanded and mixed up with the public of lookers-on.  The Ladies of the Court as well as the officers of the men-of=war, were, in an identical way no to be seen at the place indicated on the programme.  In fact, the end of the procession recalled to memory the latin verse "desinit in piscem."

     One agreeable improvement was noticeable, in the fact of the LEO'S suggestion having been acted upon, of separating the Royal Hawaiian Band from that of the Charleston.

     And all this goes to demonstrate that the advice of the LEO is always sound and worthy of being taken into consideration, even by our four little kings; and ignored, the consequences may be anticipated, from the fact that the old adage claims that the LEO of the people is the LEO of God.

    

     History shows that, on the people and the rulers God intends to chastize, he generally first brings confusion upon  Judging from the confusion reported in the different branches of the government, chastize ment must be very near at hand hers.  Each head of department is said to be pulling along individually and giving orders irrespective of the others, as witnessed by a certain holiday given to the schools on Monday, on account of a supposed public reception at tghe Palace, which turned out to be only a private one for Admiral Brown and the Diplomatic Corps.  In a similar manner, it is said tha the Premier, in fact that there is no premier, but that every body wants to be boss, ignoring the only tru master, who is denied the right of bossing.  If there be any truth in such reports, the LEO can oly say one thing:  study up the Bible, gentlemen, and be wise!!
