Hawaii’s Commissioner Discusses
Mr. Blount’s Action.

A BLOW AT ANNEXATION.
Er. Carter Still of the Opinion That Po-
.Eltical Union Is Inevitable—Our Repre-
sentutivc’s Attitude Criticized by Friends
and Foes. .
WASHINGTON, April 15.-—Up td‘the hour
of closing the department of state yester-
day no information had been received rev'
garding the action of Commissioner Blount
in Ordering the United Stats flag removed,
from the government buildings in Hond-
lulu. This, at least, was understood to be
the case, but it was noted that the cable
officers of the navy department who usually-
handle the state department’s cipher disL
patches were very busily engaged. -
Iu'the course of the afternoon Mr. Cars ,
tor, the annexation commissioner from .
Ilawaii, had an interview with Secretary
Gresham, which he said was “quite satis;
‘a:tory.” He reiterated his statement that
the removal of the flag was due to the.
condition of affairs in Honolulu, which no
longer warranted its floating over the gov-
ernment buildings. “The provincial gov:
crnment can and ought to sustain itself,”
he said. “I am not at all discouraged
over the situation and believe we shall
' come out right in the end. I do not think
’ it means a reversal of the policy of the
government as expressed by the late ad-
ministration. Secretary Foster’s attitude
was satisfactory to the annexationists, and _'
he promptly disavowed the protectorate. .
”What We all regret is that events have
made it necessary to pursue that course.
we had hopes when it once was hoisted
that annexation would be accomplished
a. thief; it might new again be healed
‘1 S
get this is‘Mr. Carter’s sincere belieifi
I». _e out by the fact that he is arranging
to? make a tour of the south to investigaw'
iii “abject of negro labor and the proba- f
blades of securing a supply from that;
section of the country for Hawaii. He i
says in explanation of this trip that the
knowledge is necessary to his government
and to the people of the islands, for if an- }
nexation with the United States is con»
summated the present contract system, by .
which Chinese and Japanese laborers for l
the sugar and rice plantations of Hawaii "
are secured, must be abandoned, and
southern negro labor will be the most
available substitute.
The news was received here with regret
and dissatisfaction by almost everybody,
outside of official circles and the few ultra .
opponents of annexation. Mr. Blount’s ‘
opponents say he is a narrow minded poli- _
iician who was conspicuous in congress
for his opposition to all progressive ideas
for the development of the commercial in—
terests of the union, and was to be found
among the non-progressive class on all .
public questions. Long before he was
selected to be commissioner to Hawaii he 1
had emphatically declared his Opposition -:
to annexation and criticized the action of
Minister Stevens. ’,
On the other hand, it is held by leading
Democrats that Commissioner Blount has
probably carried out his instructions in
ordering the United States flag to be -
hauled down and the flag Of the Hawaiian
monarchy to be run to the mast head.
This, they say, is what Minister Stevens
should have done immediately after his
action in assuming an American protector:
use was repudiated by the United States
government. The flag being an emblem
oif sovereignty, our flag should not have
been permitted to float over the govern-
ment buildings at Honolulu one moment
after United States sovereignty over the
islands was disclaimed.
The provisional government is now left
in entire and independent control, and the
future relations of the tow countries are
left to deliberate and intelligent negotia-
tion.
