THE ELECTION.
Gin is King and Gibson is
Premier.
The Government Beats the Tax
payers of Honolulu Almost
Two to One.
THE OUTSIDE DISTRICTS.

Election day has passed; the battle
has been fought, and the Opposition
of Oahu have been defeated As a
party, the Opposition has made a
brave stand in Honolulu against tre-
mendous odds, and the odds have
beaten, as they will continue to beat
as long as political campaigns are
fought by the Opposition party upon
the abstract merits of the peoples
cause. M
Early in the day the town was alive
with hacks and 'busses conveying vot-
ers to the polls. Tents, for headquar-
tiers, were erected at different places
in the vicinity Of the polls. Gin was
freely distributed from the Palace yard
to the outskirts of the district by the
leaders of the Government party. The
Kings soldiers we're marched to the
polls in squads to help overwhelm the
taxpayers cause Such thing would
not be tolerated in a free country.
During the early part of the day it was
thought by many that Carter and Wa
terhouse would be elected, as the ma
tives were scratching both Baker and
Lilikalani, but toward evening it be-
came current rumor that the whole
Government ticket was elected, which,
later in the evening, turned out to be
true, About six o'clock in the after
noon word was received from the out
side districts by telephone, which an
nounced that the Opposition had car
ried Eva and Koolauloa, while the
Government had carried Waialua and
Koolaupoko. The following are the
returns for Oahu as far as learned, and
which are in the main correct:

THURSDAY FEB. 4, il
a SAD SIGHT.

1t was sad sight yesterday, to the
humane outsider to see the dying rem
nant of the native race being publicly
debauched with gin by an unscrupu
lous foreign Administration aided by a
few native politicians. A gentleman
who lately arrived in Honolulu from
the United States, and who has spent a
life in political work in the great Re
public, remarked in the Government
Building ground yesterday, What is
to become Of the Hawaiian Monarchy
if this debauchery Of the natives con
tinues7" What indeed We repeat, it
was a sad sight to see the native voters
bartering their birth-right of Hawaiian
Independence for glass Of gin. 1t is
not part Of prophecy to declare, by
the testimony furnished in the pages of
Hawaiian history. that, if such de-
bauchery is kept up, the Hawaiian
Monarchy will be, in few short years,
a thing of the past. The facts must be
looked in the face; it is nothing to us
in one sense, but in another it is. AS
an historical and logical deduction
both the native race and the Hawaiian
Monarchy are doomed; the law of the
survival Of the fittest practically applies
to the future of Hawaii: but granted,
that the ultimate end is absolute, we,
who have made Hawaii our home,
have SO identified our interests with
the welfare of the whole country, that
1t becomes our patriotic duty to pro-
long the lives Of the natives and the
form of Government under which our
interests and theirs have grown and be-
came consolidated.
When good Queen Emma died and
was hid away in the tomb, the natives
cried aloud in their grief and foretold,
their hope and stay being gone, that
they must perish if they we're not saved
from decay by other hands than their
present rulers. Poor Queen Emma
she died without power to save the
people she loved from the Government
that was poisoning them with gin in
order to retain the right they had
already wrested from her. 1t now re-
mains for strangers to save the remnant
of her people, if such a thing be posi-
BILE, from total extinction, which is be-
ing threatened, by the enemies of the
natives, in the form of political gin.
