Gathering of National Reformers,
Liberals and Sons of Hawaii.

Liberals and Sons of Hawaii.
Notice of only few hours brought
together a gathering, for the greater
part of native Hawaiians, numbering
about two hundred, at the Queen
street Armory last night. Hon. Jos,
Nawahi, leader of the Liberals in
the Legislature, presided. The meet
ing was in the interest of the candi-
dates of the National Reform, Lber-
al and Sons of Hawaii union-C. b.
Male and Chas. l.. Hopkins.
Hon. l.. w. p. Kanealii was the
first speaker. He was going some
time before an interpreter in the
person of Hon. Antoine Rosa was
called forward on entering the hall.
The speaker wished to call attention
to the champion of the native rights
in 1S90-R. w. Wilcox-and his
course this year. The other night
that man had said Hawaiians we're
foolish in looking for new Consti-
tuition, the thing he had two years
ago declared he was ready to shed
his blood for. Hawaiians should be-
gin anew that night and carry for
ward the demand for new Consti-
tuition, keeping it up till the last
Hawaiian generation if happily they
might then gain their end. Mr..
Wilcox said now that the Constitu-
ton of 1887 he formerly denounced
was the best the Hawaiians could
ever expect, and that the only trou-
BILE with it was that it was above the
intelligence of Hawaiians. Such was
the half-caste who had been edu-
Gated abroad at the expense of the
Hawaiian people. Then there was
John E. Bush, another former pro-
fessed patriot, who was advocating
in his paper the election of Water
house and Robinson, so that we
might have closer relations with the
United States. All that party want
ed with the United States was two
and half cents extra on sugar.
Some of them wanted annexation
with the United States. If the coun-
try wanted any annexation it should
be to the British, whom history had
shown to have always had a fatherly
feeling toward this country.
Mr.. j. G. Quinn on being calico
forward said he hadn't expected tc
be asked to speak, but being a mem

denied these rumors. They hat
nothing to do with Brown. The,
all knew Brown, he had been brough
up here, and they knew that Brow
was for Brown all the time. Mail
and Hopkins were the unanimou
choice of the committee. In 1891
the National Reform party won sucl
victory as was never won here be

That was enough to make one
