tale he (Kalaukoa) told
was fatty contradicted by every
other witness. On behalf
of the leading Chinese citizens (?)
of Honolulu emphatically deny the
truth of the committees statement,
and 1 defy them to show that it is
substantiated by the evil
dencc."
Ii Mr.. Sing will please look in the
Legislative report in the BULLETIN
for Wednesday, September 18th, I'd
column, line as from top, he will
see that "Luhiau admitted he re-
ceived $50 from Chinese, etc" ."
Was it SANDER or fact, Mr.. Sing?
The talk about preconceived notion
on the part of the committee is
gross insult, not only TO the gentle
men, of which this committee was
composed, but to the whole Legis-
lature. Likewise is il an insult to
every member of the Legislative
Assembly when he accuses them of
not caring to ascertain the truth. |
| judiciously say every member, be-
cause the vote on the first recon-
mendation of the committee stood
So ayes, 0 noes. That the "tale"
of Kalaukoa was fatty contradicted
is not true, no more than the asser-
tion that none of the witnesses adj
mitted their bribe as coming from
Cinnamon. That Mr.. Sing "defies"
the whole Legislature is natural
enough, but it is only TO heap insult
upon insult. He may speak for the
leading citizens Presidents l under
stand them to be) of Honolulu, but
if they are to be measured by the
actions of those of them that were
mentioned in connection with the
bribery case, they must be very
corrupt set, which |, however, hope
or believe is not the case.
Is Mr.. Sing going to be the ''In-
FAINT terrible?" He says; "These
men (haoles) belong TO set, who
are well accustomed to putting up
campaign funds when they think any
political point is to be gained, and
have for years past found the
sinews of war for election contests,
and last year for the league" Few
of them appear but they
can be relied upon for the funds
when they are needed.
Who are they, Mr.. Sing? Give
us names, prove what you assert.
This is worse than the bribe for vot-
ing contra Amendment" it is
treason! If you cannot prove it,
you will be liable to be called a
slanderer and lying. Who of them
gave the money to Kauhi as you say
they most likely did? Do you think
that the lands you are paying rent
for now would be idle if you &C
away? Oh, no! don't think that,
there are men and families enough
here ready to occupy your places,
Mr.. Sing says: But our y
enemies we can meet and deal with
The Chinaman is an important fac
tor and it will yet b,
found that lie is not to be triheC
with in impunity by anyone" Mr.
Editor, when Mr.. Tam Tow (Tou
Cow, as "P. G. A." has it) in the
mass meeting of the Chinese, threat
ems Hawaii and says it is believed
the Chinese authorities will take
steps to render help, and when he il
the same speech sneers at little Ha
waii, nobody paid attention to it
