DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES
For the guidance of the candidates presented and supported at the next election in the island of Oahu, H.I., by the combined political Associations, the Mechanics’ Union and the Hui Kalaiaina.
--------
1. Our candidates are required to promote and defend all measures for the advantage of the working classes and to oppose whatever might be subversive of their rights and interests, not forgetting however that all classes in the nation being alien entitled to consideration and protection, any legislation must be made for the majority of the people, on the basis of equality for all the civilized races here settled, and no longer perverted to the designs or purposes of any clique, faction or colony;
2. Our candidates are emphatically pledged to maintain the absolute independence and perfect autonomy of the kingdom and agree not to support any kind of treaties or measures which might lead to the practical annexation or absorption of our country by any other power; but, for the purpose of obtaining a still more formal recognition of our independence, with a definite guarantee of our mutual rights, they will favor a special appeal, not only to America, but also to all the Great Powers who have hitherto protected us and made treaties of friendship with this kingdom; they will also countenance the continuance of the present Reciprocity Treaty with the United States of America, under this reservation however, that, in the event of an abrogation or alteration of their present tariffs, Hawaii must be at liberty to adopt measures to meet the contingency.
3. Whilst deprecating any ill-considered tampering with the present Constitution, we think that---from its having been framed very hastily—it is necessarily imperfect, and that a healthful revision of it might be obtainable in calm council without undue outside pressure. Such a revision—made in a progressive and liberal spirit, keeping in view the political and social advancement of the country and carefully guarding the people’s liberties,--would be the most efficacious and satisfactory method of eradication for ever all ideas of retrogression which at present no intelligent man, native or foreigner, can entertain without fear for our future safety and independence.
4. Our candidates will support a liberal modification of the present law on the property and income qualifications now required of electors for nobles, in order to include in that voting privilege a worthy class of natives, small land owners and mechanics, who are now unjustly deferred. It might also be well to consider whether a more satisfactory status of the legislature could be obtained by dividing it into two separate bodies, instead of sitting together, as at present, which is an anomaly not to be found in any office in any other constitutionally governed country.
5. We believe that certain public offices might be satisfactorily filled by election of the people and recommend the question to the thoughtful consideration of the legislature. At any rate, we expect that the appointments to all the public offices will, in the future, give to the public better satisfaction than they have done hitherto, and we are in favor of the adoption of a judicious civil service and equitable pension law, to protect the really efficient and faithful public servants and secure them from arbitrary removal with every political change;
6. We decidedly favor the most rigid economy in the expenditure of the public funds; and one of the most practical proofs of that desire can be given by the suppression of all unnecessary offices, now used for the purpose of favoritism and by the reduction of many excessive salaries, while at the same time, the humble and indispensable public servants, who, at present, barely exist on a starvation salary, should receive a just increase.
7. As the strength and wealth of a nation are built on the partition of the soil into numerous small farms rather than into a few large estates, our candidates will endorse all practicable suggestions for augmenting the efficiency of the Homestead Act, and consider the ways and means of obtaining and devoting more lands to the purposes of that act. Concerning immigration generally, it must be the duty of the government to devote special attention to the question of repopulating the kingdom with suitable people and of facilitating their settlement.
8. Our candidates will unconditionally endorse and further by all means, the earnest wish expressed by our Political Associations, for immediate and stringent measures against the Asiatic Hordes who threaten this country, supplanting and starving out the Natives and driving away the foreign Workmen. Chinese laborers seem evidently indispensable to our planting interests and planters must have the proper facilities for procuring at their expense and obtaining as many as they may need, but these must be strictly kept on the plantations and must be returned to their homes as soon as no longer used for plantation labor. For that purpose, proper restricted constitutional legislation must be enacted without delay. Moreover, in connexion with this asiatic question, we insist on these points:
A)—that neither the government nor any public officers or government contractors should be allowed to use Asiatic labor on public works;
B)—that no newcomers of asiatic races should be allowed to engage in trade or mechanical occupations, the present licenses being gradually canceled on the natural disappearance of the actual owners.
9. In the special interests of the laboring classes, Hawaiian and foreign, we favor the following suggestions:
A)—that no finished materials that can be made or procured here on reasonable terms be imported for government use-so as to protect local industries.
B)—that in consideration of the heavy subsidies paid to the Queen’s Hospital from public funds the government should insist on its trustees modifying their regulations, so as to make of it a truly available institution more accessible to the destitute of all nationalities.
C)—that the present Sunday law be liberally modified, so that the people be allowed healthful recreation on that day;
D)—that a more equitable assessment of property and a just revision of the tax laws be obtained;
10. Regarding the “liberal policy desired by our Associations about public improvements having for object the development of national resources and giving greater facilities to the foreign and domestic commerce”, we specially recommend the following measures;
A)—the immediate improvements of Honolulu Harbor, to accommodate vessels of the largest tonnage and the increasing commerce of the port;
B)—The extension of the railroad around Oahu, which will not only give occupation to laborers but also facilitate the settling of the island and promote the cultivation of its rich lands;
C)—the adoption of a better and more systematic road system, and the opening of new roads in the remote districts where the local road taxes are insufficient and where the local road-taxes are insufficient and where consequently the lands are now accessible to settlement;
D)—the improvement of harbor and landing facilities on all the islands, and the construction of all necessary wharves and bridges;
If, to carry out the above contemplated improvements, or for the refunding of the present national debt, a loan be necessary, we recommend a proper utilisation of the Post-Office Saving Bank;
11. Due attention must be given to the general education,--with liberal support of public schools,--to the health of the country at large and to the general education,--with liberal support of public schools,--to the health of the country at large and to the sanitary conditions of the city of Honolulu in view of preventing the recent excesses of government centralization, a cautious study must be made of the feasibility of local self-government and finally, we demand a strong and rigid administration of the laws and a more impartial prosecution of delinquents, opium smugglers, illicit liquor-sellers and vagrants.
Hoping that these brief views,--formulated in no partisan spirit, but with the most earned desire of serving the interests of the country at large as well as of helping the cause of the people and of the working classes,--will meet with the approbation of the people in the same way as they already have been endorsed by our candidates, we earnestly call on the voters to manifest their adhesion at the polls.
