Telegram from Hawaians to American President.—"WE would be U.S."


THE ANTI——?

Your aid let me ask in a difficult task, Mr. Punch, with the greatest submission;

To win for my name a well-merited fame was always my ardent ambition,

And clearly to-day the least difficult way is to send an appeal to the papers,

To form an intrigue for creating a league against fashion-designers and drapers.

Thereby shall I reap an advertisement cheap, and writers, with much perseverance,

Will furnish as news their apocryphal views on my appetite, age, and appearance;
