In January, 1890, the National Reform Party was established in opposition to the Reform Party, drawing from the group Hui Kālaiʻāina and the Mechanics' and Workingmens' Political Protective Union.[1] It was regarded as moderate political party and supported Queen Liliʻuokalani and native Hawaiians, making themselves favored when she formed her cabinet which were all members of the National Reform Party. The other two main parties were both critical of the queen. The conservative Reform Party said she was too liberal and the Liberal Party accused her of being too conservative.

Successful candidates included John Adams Cummins and Paul Neumann.[2]
