King Kalākaua

... that one of the goals of King Kalākaua's world tour (Kalākaua pictured) was to save the declining population of Native Hawaiians?

Source:"estimated population of native Hawaiians when Cook arrived was 800,000. The official 1878 census showed only 44,088 individuals who claimed Hawaiian ethnicity" has two sources - McDermott - Andrade book pp=5–6 and 1881 Hawaiian almanac, census figures p. 10; "I will speak to you of one of our great questions, which is the supply of people, not only to meet the requirements of all our industries, but to assist in the increase of an Hawaiian population." sourced His Majesty on Kauai in his speech.
