Builetin reporter he 1 furnished the information that lh« natives were perfectly ind fTerent aa to what became nf their conntrv. Aa long aa they had enough to eat they didn’t bother about annexation ona way or ovher. In regsrd i to the Hawaiian Leg;alatures, the ! fact waa that any forty-e ght ton-year-old boye picked out of an American school wouhi make better ia«s and better !egisiators than auy forty-eight Hawaiian Lepiela- ; tors.
