Through the combination of the rapidly declining Kanaka Maoli population, powerful missionaries, and the strategic positioning of haole businessmen in the Hawaiian government, US interests were increasingly served by new laws regulating the sale of Hawaiian land which almost exclusively benefited American-owned sugar plantations (Silva 2004, 39–43).	cache/fpq-3089.pdf	txt/fpq-3089.txt
