nothing but Cinnamon and japanese.
de has said that the reason he gave
contracts for work to Chinese was
that he had no bids from white men
or natives. 1t is a lie. | know that
he did receive bids from white men.
he was not satisfied to only swindIe
the Government, but must organize
a construction company to rob the
shareholders of the railroad COM
pany; and one member of
the construction company has
placed more mortgages on the
property of natives than any other
man in this community. Now, this
pious man is asking for the votes of
Workingmen, when he is in favor of
bringing labor from India that will
be paid about fifteen cents a day and
allowing the Portuguese to starve.
This man is allied with missionaries,
with pious people, blacklegs, boodlers
and opium smugglers. If you want
such a man for your Representative,
vote for him. It has been said that
the Liberals are opposed to the sugar
industry; it is not so. If their laws
are for the good Of the country we are
with them; if they are not, then they
sugar barOns to bleed US and swamp
this country with cheap coolie labor.
This piOus man charges So. 80 q ton to
transport poi from Pearl City to
Honolulu; his road owns nearly all
the cattle ranches on Hawaii, and has
taken advantage of that, and has
raised the price of beef from % to 5
cents pound, and want you to re-
member when you sit down to eat
that you are paying tax on food to
that very piOus benefactor. Dilling-
ham runs milk dairy for his health
he says 1T has not paid a dividend in
twelve years according to his state
ment, and | would be truly sorry for
him only his milk tastes so strong of
water. This piOus man wants to go
to the Legislature to get Doodle and
to rob the Government of more land
for his greedy railroad. What can't a
man get with $4OO,O0O when he bought
so much from Thurston for $500.
Pious Dillingham; and his road are
trying to run the politics of this cOun-
try the same as railroad corporations
do in the United States. Now if you
want the railroad, missionaries,
bOodlers and blacklegs to trample on
y
his companions. Regarding the
treaty with the United States that I
defeated, will say that if L had not
done so this meeting would never
have been allowed in this city; they
would have landed marines enough
from the Pensacola to dispense the
present gathering. The missionary
gang hate me for the attitude | took
towards that Objectionable treaty,
and even now are in negotiation for
another such treaty that will afford
me pleasure to oppose. l am not OPP
posed to treaty that would pay us a
bounty for our sugar, and am morally
certain that they will not do that
without annexation. A new treaty
with the United Estates means that
we must cede Pearl ::Harbor, but
will not submit to it unless we are
granted something in return. Thurs
ton is anxious to sell Pearl Harbor,
and considering that he gave Homo
lulu harbor for $500, what will he
want for the other? In conclusion L
will say that hereafter Thurston will
be known as Hon. Railroad BoodIer
ThurstOn. Dillingham; will be known
as Hon. Milk and Water Dillingham;.
They are good pair and if they are
the kind of men you want, vote for
them.
r. w. WILCOX was the next speaker
He roasted the men, in English, who
were on the outside interrupting the
meeting. He then drifted into Ha-
waiian and gave a characteristic adj
dress; the most interesting portion
was announcing the next Cabinet.
He said that Bush, Wilcox, Ashford
and Marques were the men.
One or two other candidates made
short speeches and the meeting then
adjourned.
NOTES.
While the meeting was in progress
there was a great deal of amusement
caused on the outside, much to the
disgust of Ashford. The latter was
interrupted all through his speech by
one or other of the following sallies:
How about that insurance, Ashford?
What did the Colonel do with the
$4,000?
Didn't you get all your money from
the Chinese?
Cries of put him out; cheers for
Dillingham;.
Groans, Kisses and other things too
numerous to mention.
