When a man meets with adversely,
he is then sorely tenn pted to stray from
the straight path on which he has
walked, and the Lottery bill is now
the tempter-it is great danger and
a terrible temptation that the people
of this country are faced with the
Government is under a severe trial.
When a man does not know what is
in store for his family he is sorely
tempted. But it behooves every
citizen to stand for principle, no mat
ter what the consequences may be. We
should not harbOr a favorable feeling
for the Lottery bill, as it would not
be right to ourselves, our wives or our
children. It is of the utmost import
ance for the stability of our homes
and government, and we must stand
for principle, and not be led away by
the glitter of the lottery gold
Hon. c. w. Ashford: During the
last campaign [ took a determined
stand in favorof the Liberal Party, as it
was for representative government
and now we do not want boss to take
the government out of the hands of
the people-as affairs have turned out
we have found ourselves attacked by
a clique TO take the government out
of the hands of the people and place it
in the hands of one. We find that
this man proposes TO usurp herights
of the people, and L for one protest
here and on the floor of the house.
All people must promote Che reign of
law and the will of the people, and
we unite on this question. Are the
people TO reign or one man with his
satellites? The principle of upholding
the rights of the people must be up
held, if anything at the present time
is essential it is to stand on this ticket
We will elect the men, there is no doubt
as to their being elected as their
regulations are sufficient guarantee
that they will form good government,
The serpent that threatens US now is
in the shape of personal government.
do not consider the lottery question
as paramount one. And if good gov
eminent is to be carried on, the peo-
pie should elect these two candidates.
We are for good government and pro-
pose to stand for it at all times.
Hon. r. W. Wilcox - Heretofore I
have worked against the Reform
party, and want to explain my posi-
ton at the present time. We have al
ways been bitter political opponents,
and the reason L am with them now
is because I think they want good
government, and that is the reason /
am working hand in hand with them
to elect the two candidates. You all
know that before the last election
there were different parties. The
| National RefOrmers went to the Re-
form party, and solicited their
vote. We all know that certain
Liberal members have gone back
on their platform. There is an at
tempt at present to have a one man
government, and the public have to
| submit to his will We must have the
| government in the hands of the
representatives of the people, other
wise you will have to bow
| your knees to King Bolabola.
| tell native Hawaiians to elect
| intelligent men in order to
keep the reins of government in the
hands of the people, make your choice;
/ If you elect these candidates, the bal
ance of power will be held in the
hands of he people. Drop all talk of
party quarrels and unite, and elect
| the proper men TO the House. If the
| one-man government comes to pass
we will have stable boys and others
Of that ilk appointed to the Ministry,
and we do not want that tc happen.
I don't want the people to think that ]
have abandoned the Liberal party, but
in This instance we are united on one
principle-and that is for good govern
ment. Withdraw your support from
the National Reform party-they used
you simply as a stepping-stone to
power; we wish to be united, and
earnestly endeavor to elect our men.
The men on the opposition ticket
are supportd by the opium Ding, elect
men who will purify the present dis
graceful state of affairs.
Henry Waterhouse: This nomina.
