Fate of the Hawaiian newspapers? 1889

[Found under: “NU HOU HAWAII”]

With the publication of the newspaper “Makaainana” this past Wednesday, it is understood that it was its last appearance as a newspaper, and that it would be at rest for all times. There have been many and a multitude of newspapers started in this era by Hawaiians, however, their conclusions have been in devastation. And it is as if the demise of the many newspapers established by Hawaiians has become reason for Hawaiians to waver and not support new newspapers that are started.
