which the American members
were careful to express then

Possibly the Advertiser knows
all this, hence its agitation, hence
the fear of the undeclared csmdi-

The official organ knows too much
about the neutrality record of
cowardice and treason, and hence
doesn't care or dare to go into

The Advertiser has repeatedly
talked of candidate for "A ter
ritory that does not exist" Now
it quotes from party platforms for
the benefit Of "a territory that
does not exist" and did not exist
when the partyadeclarations were
made. The organ not only fails to
stand by the full party platforms
but also evades its own utterances.
If Congress had intended to
treat Hawaii as any other terrific
ry of the United States, it would
simply have extended Federal
laws with the act of annexation.
But Congress, because it recognize
ed the American spirit OF the rank
and file OF the Americans of Ho-
nolulu, whom the Advertiser
sneers at and whom the organ
and its friends sought to betray by
advocating declaration OF neu-
trality, and because it recognized
here evils which could not be in

the appointment of President Dole

studiously what it knows to be po-

RUN We MUGwUMPs. RUN.

Reveriing into a reminiscent
mood the official organ of present
Hawaiian government quotes the
famous Blaine hoodoo as: Run,
Romauiam and Rebellion" The
organ will claim it was a mistake
of the typos, yet it is not sur
prising that such an error should
occur. The official organ is so ac-
customed to run to cover when
faced with any proposition relat =
ing to American politics.
When the official organ has
been brought to face the neutrali-
ty questiDo it has scurried to
cover.
When the official organ is asked
to name It's candidate for governor
it runs.
When the official organ is asked
why it, undecIared candidate Pre-
sident Dole has not the courage to
come out boldly and honestly, the

When the organs weak mug

Americans the organ skeedaddles
with alacri'y.
The organ confesses that the re-
vivifying run OF American loyalty

BY quoting from political plat
forms it is fair to presume that the
Advertiser is seeking some way in
which to voice Owner Thurst ,n's
remark: Hawaii for the Hawai-.
ians." lis a catchy phrase, but
what has the official organ done to
create a Hawaii for the Hawai-
ians When the franchise ques.
ton was before the Commission
how much influence did the official
circle exert, how many arguments
did the official organ bring to light
favoring liberal American policy
10 dealing with the franchise ?
What efforts were put forth to Gre
ate by liberal franchise Hawaii
for the Hawaiians ? What Her
culean fighting was done to create
in Hawaii a home rule that will
compare with that of other Amer.
lean territories ?
Let the official organ of this ter.
ritory tell the people what was
done, or what is being done to put
the rule of CHS territory in the
hands OF anyone outside the uude-
clared candidates official circle.
Point to one single incident where
it has not interpreted "home rule"
as "present. official rule" Why
should the official organ be so ard
emily in favor of home rule, when
it tacitly il not openly favored the
restricted franchise ? Party plat
forms are pointed to when Mr..
Dole's candidacy is threatened.
What about party platform refer
ences to immigration, party plat
form declarations on the tariff
party platform assertions on ship
ping laws, party platform demands
for the right of every American
citizen to vote ? This is another
story of course and the official
mouthpiece fears to face it. "Home
rule" and Hawaii for the Hawai-
isns" comes from the official organ
With what echoes of mockery this
rebounds from the acts and words
Of the official circle.
