walking delegate and expounder o.
the doctrines of the American Union
party to the citizens of this island
Hence a meeting of the Annexation
club was called at Wailuku cou
house, Wednesday evening, the 2Sth
inst Up-country people did not at
tend as it was learned that Mr.. Carter
had not arrived as expected. Never
theless the assembling took place
according to order, and after the
acceptance of several reports ad-
journed.
Immediately afterward a meeting
OF the Waikiki branch of the Annex
alton club was called, and after much
discussion also adjourned, this time
sine die.
1t seemed to be just the evening for
meetings, for following the adjourn
ment "without day" of the branch
club, J. l.. Dumas, as temporary
chairman, again raped the gentle
men TO order and at once proceedings
were set afoot to organize perma-
nent political club. "Wailuku Union
Club" was the name adopted for the
new organization. After much dis
cussion the platform of the American
Union party was finally accepted with
the exception of the fifth clause or
principle, which was amended so as
TO read the same as the old "UniOn
Party" plauk-that Asiatics should
be admitted only for agricultural pur-
poses, and that they be- allowed TO en-
gage in no other occupation.
Then the following officers were
elected: J. w. Kalua, president; G.
Armstrong, vice president; w. T.
Robinson, secretary; and d. L. Myers,
treasurer.

tee were received, but election was
deferred till next meeting, which will

They also elected Messrs. +. Hele-
kunihi and H. z. Baldwin as their

the American Union party permit of
but one club to district, and the
Paia and Haleakala chapter are but
branches of the Makawao district
club.
There is some talk of organizing
even another chapter in the far away
