We had no clue that the Angel of death was so close to the door of the bodily home of one of the finest fathers, that being our friend, Charles P. Mahi. The English messenger of Hilo announced that he left this worldly life.
Because of our fondness for the character of this fine father, we therefore publish a little thing so that the multitudes may know of the true nature of this father. Continue reading
The native language of a people, like the Hawaiian Language for the Hawaiian lahui, is called the mother tongue of the Hawaiians. From what we know, how many Hawaiian youths educated in our High Schools and outside as well are truly well-supplied in knowledge and are skilled in the mother tongue of their land of birth?
We see these days that are going by, the children are grasping English, while they really have no desire to seek out the native tongue of their land of birth. It is very clear that because the Hawaiian language government schools have been put to an end, the large water sources [poo wai] that fed into all the water ditches [auwai] of knowledge in that language for the youth of Hawaii nei have closed up.

Hawaii’s Story by Hawaii’s Queen
Because we are constantly asked by our readers to print the story which our Queen wrote in Washington and that was just published in Boston, therefore, we are spreading the news to our readership that we will translate and print the story in the columns of the newspapers the daily and weekly Ke Aloha Aina, on the first week of this coming month for the benefit of our readers. Therefore, do take up Ke Aloha Aina so that you can see the one story written by Queen Liliuokalani and published in foreign lands, with statements full of sentiment and aloha dealing with Her overthrow. Aloha for Her.
(Aloha Aina, 3/19/1898, p. 5)
Ke Aloha Aina, Buke IV, Helu 12, Aoao 5. Maraki 19, 1898.
Here, by the way, is what the heading of that running column looked like:
