The correct answer is C

Sanford Ballard Dole was a lawyer and jurist in the former Kingdom of Hawaiian Islands who eventually managed to become president of the new born republic of Hawaii after the coup which overthrew the monarchy.

While being president, Dole advocated the westernization of Hawaiian culture and politics. His main service as president was to secure the annexation of Hawaii by the US.
