(Davey Bishop Museum) THE FEDERAL COURTS AND THE ANNEXATION OF HAWAII BY HON. SAMUEL P. KING T he Hawaiian Islands became part of the United States of America at noon Hawaii time on August 12, 1898. A formal ceremony for the transfer of sovereignty took place with the unfurling of the largest of several American flags raised over the central tower of Iolani Palace exactly on the hour. As soon as all of the American flags were in place, United States Minister Harold M. Sewall read a proclamation to the government and people of the Hawaiian Islands continuing the existing govern- ment of Hawaii, except for foreign relations, until Congress provided otherwise. The event was received with varying emotions among different groups in the local population, covering the spectrum from joyous elation to sullen resentment. Most Hawaiians and many Americans viewed the loss of sovereignty as the passing of a loved one. Hawaiians generally had remained at home, lonely and sad, their windows and doors closed. There was grumbling among some participants over the arrangements. Rear Admiral Joseph N. Miller, Commander in Chief U. S. Naval Force, Pacific Station, and Minister Sewall, had their orders to keep it simple, and this they did. An Annexation Club member expressed the Club's dissatisfaction: We have been led to believe that the rank and file would be given an opportunity to assist in some way in the consummation of the act we have been to some degree instrumental in bringing about. Now we learn at the last minutes that it is all to be solemn and straightlaced as a Scotch prayer meeting and that it's to be red tape only and stingy measure of that from beginning to end. There is no use having a holiday. The affair will be a touch and go matter of ten minutes. We may be sentimental and it may be that in five years and a half we have absorbed too much Samuel P. King is chief judge emeritus of the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii. 2 WESTERN LEGAL HISTORY VOL. 2, No. I enthusiasm with the idea that we would be allowed to explode on the great day. But it's to be strictly quiet and like a high church wedding. After it was all over, the consensus was that what had been done was dignified, appropriate, and sufficient. Even so, there was still much to be done. Hawaii's consent to annexation was by way of a Treaty of Annexation signed at Washington, D. C., on June 16, 1897. The senate of the Republic of Hawaii ratified this treaty on September 9, 1897, but the treaty languished in the United States Senate. Proponents could garner a majority vote in each house of Congress but could not garner a two-thirds vote in the United States Senate.

    AMERICA's ANNEXATION of HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE

    A LUSCIOUS FRUIT: AMERICA’S ANNEXATION OF HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE HOWARD JONES, COMMITTEE CHAIR JOSEPH A. FRY KARI FREDERICKSON LISA LIDQUIST-DORR STEVEN BUNKER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2012 Copyright Becky L. Bruce 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation argues that the annexation of Hawaii was not the result of an aggressive move by the United States to gain coaling stations or foreign markets, nor was it a means of preempting other foreign nations from acquiring the island or mending a psychic wound in the United States. Rather, the acquisition was the result of a seventy-year relationship brokered by Americans living on the islands and entered into by two nations attempting to find their place in the international system. Foreign policy decisions by both nations led to an increasingly dependent relationship linking Hawaii’s stability to the U.S. economy and the United States’ world power status to its access to Hawaiian ports. Analysis of this seventy-year relationship changed over time as the two nations evolved within the world system. In an attempt to maintain independence, the Hawaiian monarchy had introduced a westernized political and economic system to the islands to gain international recognition as a nation-state. This new system created a highly partisan atmosphere between natives and foreign residents who overthrew the monarchy to preserve their personal status against a rising native political challenge. These men then applied for annexation to the United States, forcing Washington to confront the final obstacle in its rise to first-tier status: its own reluctance to assume the burdens and responsibilities of an imperial policy abroad.

    A Murder, a Trial, a Hanging: the Kapea Case of 1897–1898

    esther k. arinaga & caroline a. garrett A Murder, a Trial, a Hanging: The Kapea Case of 1897–1898 Kapea was a 20 year-old Hawaiian man executed by hanging for the murder of Dr. Jared K. Smith of Köloa, Kaua‘i.1 Kapea’s 1897–98 arrest, trial, and execution in the fi nal years of the Republic of Hawai‘i illustrates legal, political, and cultural dynamics which found expres- sion in Hawai‘i’s courts during the critical years preceding Hawai‘i’s annexation to the United States. In 1874 David Kaläkaua succeeded Lunalilo as monarch of the Hawaiian Kingdom. Aware that Native Hawaiians were increasingly dispossessed of their land and were further disenfranchised as disease drastically diminished their numbers, Kaläkaua set out to have his cabinet and legislature controlled by Native Hawaiians. Inevitably, he clashed with the white population, primarily missionary descendants. A duel ensued between a “willful Hawaiian King and a headstrong white opposition.” This was a new “band of righteous men,” who like earlier missionaries, felt it was their moral duty, the white man’s des- tiny, and in their own self-interest to govern and save the natives.2 In 1887 Kaläkaua’s reign began its swift descent. A new constitu- tion, forced upon the King at “bayonet” point, brought changes in Esther Kwon Arinaga is a retired public interest lawyer and has published essays on early women lawyers of Hawai‘i and Korean immigration to the United States. Caroline Axtell Garrett, retired from 40 years in higher education in Hawai‘i, has been publishing poems, essays, and articles since 1972.

In the 2016 Electoral College, one of Colorado’s electors violated Colorado law by attempting to cast his presidential ballot for a candidate other than the one he pledged to vote for. Colorado removed him as an elector, declined to accept his ballot, and replaced him with an alternate elector who properly cast her ballot for the winner of the State’s popular vote, consistent with Colorado law. The removed elector later sued Colorado for nominal damages. The questions presented are: 1. Whether a presidential elector who is prevented by their appointing State from casting an Electoral College ballot that violates state law lacks standing to sue their appointing State because they hold no constitutionally protected right to exercise discretion. 2. Does Article II or the Twelfth Amendment forbid a State from requiring its presidential electors to follow the State’s popular vote when casting their Electoral College ballots.

  • Annual Report

    Annual Report

    Message from the Chief Justice After thirty-eight years as a judge in Idaho I will retire sometime this coming summer. Having worked in every level of the court, serving during the tenures of seven governors, and enjoying the association with the Legislature during four decades I hope to bring forward some insight on the future of the courts in Idaho. Last year the Legislature took an unprecedented step in adding four new magistrate judge positions and two new district judgeships. With the public pounding at the courthouse doors for resolution of its legal problems this was a tremendous step; together with the senior judge programs it translates into timely justice. The agenda that the Court has this year is short, but the consequences are significant for the future. To the extent funding and personnel allow, the drug courts will continue to grow. There is a consensus on the validity of these programs both in terms of human values and in terms of economy. We will renew our requests for legislation to insure the stability of the judicial retirement fund. There have been no changes in the Court of Appeals since its creation. With a caseload over three and a half times greater than when it began it operates with the same number of judges. We have initiated a study to determine what may be necessary for the long term. Recently we began analyzing the idea of moving the law library that the Court maintains. There is the potential to create something unique in the country – an apprentice program that opens the doors of the legal system to undergraduates who may learn and benefit – a system that allows advanced students at the law school to learn at the highest level.
  • Crisis in Kona

    Crisis in Kona

    Crisis in Kona Jean Greenwell October 22, 1868. Awful tidings from Kona. The false prophet, Kaona, has killed the sheriff. Entry from the Reverend Lorenzo Lyons' Journal.1 In 1868, the district of Kona, on the island of Hawai'i, made headlines throughout the Kingdom. Some of the many articles that appeared in the newspapers were entitled "The Crazy Prophet of South Kona," "Uprising in Kona," "Insurrection on Hawaii," "The Rebels," "A Religious Fanatic," and "Troubles on Hawaii."2 The person responsible for all this attention was a Hawaiian man named Joseph Kaona. The cult which arose around Kaona typified what is known as "nativistic religion." Ralph S. Kuykendall says: From the 1820's onward there were among the Hawaiians, as among other peoples, occasional examples of what anthropologists call 'nativistic religions,' commonly consisting of some odd form of religious observance or belief under the leadership of a 'prophet' who claimed to be inspired by divine revelation; frequently such religious manifestations combined features of Christianity with old Hawaiian beliefs and customs. .3 Kaona was born and brought up in Kainaliu, Kona on the island of Hawai'i. He received his education at the Hilo Boarding School and graduated from Lahainaluna on Maui.4 In 1851, in the aftermath of King Kamehameha III's great land Mahele, Kaona was employed surveying kuleana (property, titles, claims) in Ka'u, on the island of Hawai'i.5 He also surveyed a few kuleana on O'ahu.6 Later he was employed as a magistrate, both in Honolulu and in Lahaina.7 He was a well-educated native Hawaiian.

    Former Governors of Illinois

    FORMER GOVERNORS OF ILLINOIS Shadrach Bond (D-R*) — 1818-1822 Illinois’ first Governor was born in Maryland and moved to the North - west Territory in 1794 in present-day Monroe County. Bond helped organize the Illinois Territory in 1809, represented Illinois in Congress and was elected Governor without opposition in 1818. He was an advo- cate for a canal connecting Lake Michigan and the Illinois River, as well as for state education. A year after Bond became Gov ernor, the state capital moved from Kaskaskia to Vandalia. The first Illinois Constitution prohibited a Governor from serving two terms, so Bond did not seek reelection. Bond County was named in his honor. He is buried in Chester. (1773- 1832) Edward Coles (D-R*) — 1822-1826 The second Illinois Governor was born in Virginia and attended William and Mary College. Coles inherited a large plantation with slaves but did not support slavery so he moved to a free state. He served as private secretary under President Madison for six years, during which he worked with Thomas Jefferson to promote the eman- cipation of slaves. He settled in Edwardsville in 1818, where he helped free the slaves in the area. As Governor, Coles advocated the Illinois- Michigan Canal, prohibition of slavery and reorganization of the state’s judiciary. Coles County was named in his honor. He is buried in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. (1786-1868) Ninian Edwards (D-R*) — 1826-1830 Before becoming Governor, Edwards was appointed the first Governor of the Illinois Territory by President Madison, serving from 1809 to 1818. Born in Maryland, he attended college in Pennsylvania, where he studied law, and then served in a variety of judgeships in Kentucky.

History 154 The Hawaiian Monarchy became so enamored This research paper discusses the causes and with Western technologies; they began to displace consequences of land dispossession that occurred their own people through foreign affairs. During in the Hawaiian Kingdom from the time of King the reign of King Kamehameha III, new laws were Kamehameha I in 1810 to 2019. With the power formed which changed the ways of the Kanaka of perspectivism, it is important to look at the past drastically. In the year 1848, the Great Mahele oc- of the Hawaiian Kingdom to understand its future, curred, dividing lands throughout the Hawaiian as much has been documented about the Hawaiian Kingdom. The Great Mahele and Kuleana Act Kingdom from both foreign and Hawaiian per- made Native Hawaiian commoners, who were spectives.

This displaced many of the Kanaka from the denationalization of Native Hawaiians in the their homelands, as they did not have the monies Hawaiian Kingdom, third, the illegal annexation necessary to exchange for the properties, which had been their main source of livelihood.
