Smith IN TO be enyied for his oppor-
tunities. lie will meet a man who Is
to go down into history as one of the
greatest of the Presidents. Mr.. Hatch
paid a splendid tribute to Mckinley.
speaking as a Democrat. wishing him
GOd-speed and good success.
Hon. w. q. Smith arose and made a
few remarks about our interest in the
general question of expansion.
President Dole called for MIR. Irwin.
whom he described as perhaps the
most successful business man In the
country. Mr.. Irwin responded In a
modes. and well-chosen speech voiclngI
the high opinion of all present of Hon
Alexander Young.
Mr.. Dillingham;. as the next speaker.
covered the subject of railway develop
ment in brief and earnest words and
thanked the native Hawaiian Legisla-
ture for granting him his first fran
chise. He concluded by saying: There
are none among us who do not know
that We can take nothing out of the
world but good name: and those who
mike M this business community Will
surely take that for in honor. self
sacrifice and good repute. there is no
community more deserving than this
one. He also spoke of the value to
whites OF the generosity and hospital
ity of native Hawaiians.
Hon. l.. A. IhurstOn was called for
and awoke much enthusiasm by his
plea for good relations not only with
the native Hawaiians but with the
new corners. Honolulu is advancing
with tremendous strides. We shall be
a city of $1,000 and 100000. 1t would
be great pity If old-timers and new
c0mels should divide into hostile
camps. There are lively people COM
ing, and unless we welcome them as
an American community should we
shall have serious trouble. We are
facing the time when We must formu-
late a municipal government. This
will soon be brought home to us. We
ought to begin to prepare for munich
pal charter; there can be no better
work on the part of the press and of
individuals. The United States is de-
veloping along these lines rapidly, but
We should take the best of the wisdom
of England as well as of America. The
municipalities of England and Ger
many should be studied. 1t Is business
to do so-nOt politics. Mr.. Thurston
spoke elOQuently of Mr.. Smiths serv-
ices during the long strain Of Island
politics and expressed his, thanks to
him for his able work and his stick-to-
it-iveness.
The host then called upon Mr.. Xaulo-
kOu. That gentleman spoke in Hawaii
an and Hon. w. o. Smith interpreted.
He said most of you present are. white
men,. either born here or having come
here to cast In your lot. The CONNER
cial interests of the country are pros
porous, but unless certain important
matters are considered harmony and
prosperity may be undermined. You
gentlemen who represent the high in
terests of Hawaii must not remain ST.
lent but talk and act for the interests
o. all. There will not only be conflicts
OF industry and commerce. but other
matters that must be considered. IL is
vitality important that the races should
work together. The foreigners must
work with the natives. The latter are
not wealthy, but there is a power in
them which should be recognized.
have faith to believe that you will
work for the common good SO the Ha-
waiian interests and your interests will
harmonize. There Is debt due to the
native Hawaiians. The greatest re-
sEonsibility is upon kamaiinas. There.
fore believe Mr.. Smith will
not only represent you but will
represent all, the natives as well as
the whites. There is latent Ill.
feeling among Hawaiians, put in the
hands OF you gentlemen there is great
hope for the future. But for the con,
sentative influence of Mr.. Dole ant
those with him in the time of tria

have been patriotic and wise. Mr.. Kau
lukOu paid some personal compliment:
to the guest of the evening. He sale
that Hawaiians depend largely upoI
those who have cast their lot here fol
counsel and assistance. He endorsed thu
sentiment that more men should go L
Washington.
Justice Frear responded for th'
bench and bar. He wished that Chic
Justice Judd might have been present
He said that the Judicial Department
Of Hawaii had always preserved III

ments, Legislative and Executive. haS
sometimes gone astray from the patti

Our bench was organized out of thu
ancient system. Seventy-fye years
ago the Kings and Chiefs introduce,

that the independence OF the Islands
was recognized. Justice Frear spok,

courts would he modelled upon thOsl
of States rather than OF Territories.
