RATrRWAflTTfW OUAftANTKBP OPPOSES ANNEXATION Thr Guardian of Princess Kaiulahi Spoaks Qtrotaiy3 Against It Bars tho Unitod States Cannot Conscientiously- Absorb tho Tho guardian of Priucosa Kaiulaui during her stay in England, H. Davie", accompanied by his sou, George H. Davies, reached tho city yosterday and is staying at the Palace. When soon by a Call reporter last (tracing he denied that the Princeos, who is expected horo tho first part of tho nook, it coming foi? any political purport. Ho said: "If I had thought there was any political in tho visit of the Priucess and her father to Honolulu I should havo advisod against it. "The Princosa has no thought df politics in this trip. She is simply going back to her home, whioh she has not aeon for oightyoais At the time of the revolution a residence for her was in the course of construction, and it is now finished. This sha will occupy during her stay in tho islands. "She, with hor father, A. S. reached New York on tho 16th, on which day, by the way, tho Princbss was 22 years of age. Thoy spent two or throe days in New York and then went to Washington. When they will reach hero I do not know. "I am not here to raeot the Princess, bub on my regular trip to the islands to look after my BUgar business. While I am not in any way interested in tho politics of Hawaii and the present officers of the Government are my pergonal friends. I am opposed to annexation as I have always been I don't think it would be good for the United Status or the Hawaiian!), and I cau't sto how the United States has the moral right to annox the islands. In faco of tho nppeal of the natives I don't goo how it can bo done conscientiously without further investigation. "I believe it would bo a serious stop for tho United States and don't eon huw American statesmon with Amorinan principles could think of it. The natives want their own flag and tho English in Hawaii are for tho most part opposed to annexation. Those who desire it are chiefly those eugaged in commercial and agricultural pursuits. Tho movement was started ou account of a revulsion of fooling against the corruption of the Government, which, I regret to Ray, was great, as it is in all governments. Howover, I feel that the remedy sought for the evil is the wrong one. If it is done, and the United States has power to do it, in my opinion it will be for political purposes and not from reason." S. F. Call, PrinceBB Kaiulanl and tho Crown Lands of Hawaii. Princess Kaiulaui, who arrived here late Tuesday night en route from England to hor uativo land of Hawaii, would not personally discuss hor goneral plans or her aspirations yostorday, but left tho statement of her position to hor father, Mr. Oleghorn. In response to various inquiries he said, when interviewed in his apartments at tho Occidental Hotel: "My daughter and myself are not going to tako any part in politics. No, wo shall not' go to Washington to oppose annexation. The Princosa onterod her protest several years ago. It is of record aud was protty generally published at tho time. "We aro on our way to Honolulu to rosido at our old homo on a placo of about eighty acres, four milos from town. "My daughtor was a ohild when she loft Hawaii eight and a half yoars ago, Sho is now a young woman. The peoplo wish to soe her. "The reason for having boon takon to England to bo educated has been misconstrued. She is no more English in spirit to day than is a It was thought best to havo hor education progress in a country governed as a constitutional monarchy that in lime sho might bo bettor Gtted to rulo Hawaii. It was with tho advico of Mr. Dolo and others of the present Government of Hawaii that she was sent to England to bo educated "As to tho extent of tho Hawaiian crown lands I cannot speak with certainty. All tho lands of tho islands belonged originally to King He and his immediate BUceeoHors to tho throne gave certain tracts away for different purposes I know that when King wanted to raise money by selling somo of tho nrown lauds ho alwajH had to obtain tho signaturo of tho heir appareut before the deed of sale was considered complete. "At the time of tho overthrow the crown lands were bringing in only about $50,000 a year, because they were poorly and incompetently managed. I do not know if (here are over 1,000,000 acres, but I know that much of th land is rich and is very productive, if properly handled. "Since tho overthrow the Dolo Government has assumed control of these lands. Where tho title lies you may judge for yourself. "Certainly I am opposed to annexation. I am in spiiit a Hawaiian, for I went thoro as a boy of 15. All the Hawaiiaus, the natives, object to annexation, It would be bad for the Hawaiian and bad for the Americans. "This country would gain nothing by it. The Unitod States already owns Pearl Harbor, an untqualed haven for a station, and this country has 95 percent of the trade with the island. I cannot tea what tho United States would gain. "If tho country should come into possession of the islands the expenditure of millions and millions of dollars would b required to build necessary fortifications on oaoh of the seven islands with thoir extensive seaboard." Princess Kaiulaui and her father will sail from hero next Tuesday in the steamship Australia. The will occupy one, of the bridal chambers. S. F. Call, October SS. NO CHOLERA HERE..
