meeting yesterday evening, which
was largely attended, President j. A.
Kahoonei presiding.
The subject for discussion was
proposed by Mr.. j. l. kaulukou as
follows: "Resolved that the subject
for discussion be, Repubicanism in
Hawaii" This was seconded and
carried, notwithstanding a PROPOSE
ton by Hon. VIM. White of Lahana
that the subject be deferred indetin-
itely, owing to premonition he had
that a heated discussion would ensue
which might lead to serious trouble.
The motion being carried, how.
ever, Mr.. Kaulukou spoke at some
length concerning certain rumors
prevalent that republican form of
| government was desired in this coun-
try. For himself he respected and
revered monarchy and would always
advocate independence for Hawaii
and her dominions. The speaker as
member of the Hui Kalaiaina adj
vlsed it to put down and aside all
notions of republlcanism. He was
well aware of the inconsistency of
such state of affairs with Hawai-
ians as he had always known the
race from his youth to advocate an
Independent and monarchical govern
mtnt. On retiring he said that
though he proposed the subject those
present did not think or believe that
his ideas were for republic for Ha-
waii.
Hon. r. w. Wilcox interrupted
the previous speakers remarks, say
ing that he considered the gentleman
was black sheep and coward, and
would not in the long run live up to
his remarks. Mr.. Kaulukou was
similar to Satan and was trying to
convince all through the wiles and
intrigues of the majesty of sins.
Late foreign papers contained art-
cles supposed to have been written
by the National party in Hawaii re-
garding the favorable views of
Hawaiians toward republicanism.
Local A,ters were corresponding
with Celso Caesar Moreno with re-
gard to this great subject. AS for the
present administration he thought it
was rotten, and Chas. B. Wilson the
Marshal was carrying on high jinks,
running it. Now as to The Marshal's
capabilities as a mathematician, he
wouldn't be in it in contest with
any of those present, not even in
fractions. A gentleman (referring
TO Kaulukou) at meeting of the
Sons of Hawaii yesterday evening
had said some hard things against
Bush and Wilcox, including an
opinion that they ought to be landed
in prison. The speaker challenged
the gentleman (Kaulukou) who was
present, saying he would not dare
make the same remark in his pre-
sence, partly perhaps because he was
in fear of being booted out the win
dow. (AppIause.)
Mr.. Kaulukou denied ever utter
ing the remarks laid to his charge at
last nights or any other meeting of
the Sons of Hawaii.
Mr.. Wilcox said it did not matter,
as he believed his informers in pre-
ference. Then he went on speaking
about the government and again re-
ferred to the Marshal and the opium
rings that he said were infesting the
country. Now, it was notorious
fact that opium smugglers we're walk
ing the streets as unconcernedly as
if there was no Marshal in the King
dom. Did the Marshal consider this
vigilance and did 1t not have sus-
picious aspect? The speaker, in re-
ferring to Her Majesty, said he
thought it best that monarch should
be taught to respect the wishes and
desires of her people, and if right
and justice were unavailable through
that issue the bayonet would do it.
Those who went before an audience
and said that the present administra-
tion was good enough, he considered
bordering on lunacy. The govern
meut was rotten and loose from top
to bottom and it was disgrace to
Iawaiians to allow it, If he was a
Minister the most influential arsto-
crat in the city could not commit Il
crime aud escape judgment.
Mr.. j, Bipikane thought this dis
eussion OF republicanism was all
nonsense and did not h0de any good
to its introducer, Perhaps Mr.. ka-
ulukou was sailing under false oolors,
For himself he was for monarohieal
government in Hawaii now aud for
all time. He felt that To strengthen
the peoples confidence in their
Queen, Her Majesty should come and
meet them face 10 face IN public
meeting, aud II such an occasion was
imminent II would stop all this olamor-
ing for republic IN Hawaii,
Mr. ! l'ae regarded the republican
talk as The fruit # the Aahle fran.
