HONOLULU, June 10, (£>). —
Sanford B. Dole, president of the
Republic of Hawaii, when the n
ited States annexed it, died today.
The anexation of the Hawaiian
Islands to the United States was j
due more to the individual efforts .
of Sanford Ballard Dole than to
J any other leader. He had been
t)
one of the outstanding figures in
the islands during the latter years
of their monarchial government
and the decade following their an
nexation to the nited States. He
served as the first and only pres
* ident of the Republic of Hawaii,
whose existence from 1S94 to 1900
is now all but forgotten.
Mr. Dole was born in Hawaii
April 23, 1S44, the son of Daniel
and Emily Ballard Dole, American
missionaries. He was educated at
Oahu College, Hawaii, and Wiliams
College at Williamstown, Mass. He
studied law at Boston and was ad
mitted to the bar there. Returning
to the Islands he engaged in the
practice of law at Honolulu, and
entered politics as a member of
the Hawaiian legislature in which
he served from 1882 to 18S6. He
became a leader of the reform
movement among the foreign ele
ment in 1S86, which forced King
Kalakaua’s signature to the so
called bayonet constitution which
caused the king to resign many of
his royal prerogatives.
t
Elevated to the Supreme Court
in 1887, he served until 1893, when
he became head of the provisional ‘
government which was set up by
the reform party after a success
ful revolt against Queen Liliokal
ani, who had succeeded her brother
Kink Kalakaua on the throne.
This revolt resulted from an at
tempt of the queen to restore a
«t more absolute monarchy and dis
y enfranchise the foreigners.
The queen sought the protection
of the United States and in re
sponse to her protest President
Cleveland sent James H. Blount of
Georgia to the islands as “commis
sioner paramount” to investigate
conditions in Hawaii. A demand
^ was made on Dole to relinquish to
Queen Liliuokalani her constitu
tional authority, but Dole and his
backers denied the right of the
United States to interfere and re
fused to comply with the instruc
tions of President Cleveland that
the provisional authorities reinstate
the Hawaiian Quene.
With the decision of the United
States to go no further in the way
of intervention the Republic of Ha- '
^ waii was established and Dole be
came president, serving until the ‘
V annexation of the islands to the
