NATIVE VICTORY.

1ndependen ca d ate for Delegate to
CaaSress Wins in Hawaii.
HONOLULU, Nov. ., via San Fran
cisco, Nov. l7.-Robert w. Wilcox,
the independently oyalist candidate,
has been elected Hawaiian delegate to
congress by = small majority over Sam
uel Parker, the Republican candidate.
Much depression has resulted among
all whites, as Wilcox was strongly op-
posed By Republicans and Democrats
alike. His campaign was an anti
white canvass, with promises on the
part Of some Of his campaign workers
that if he was elected Queen Liliouka-
lani should be restored to the throne.
The result of the vote shows the native
bitterness over annexation to be still
alive. 81, - 49,. %s- 49,, .>s-.. ~ ..
Republicans carried Honolulu and
the island of Oahu for Parker by PIG
plurality. The Democratic candidate,
Prince David Kawananakoa, receive4
only about one.third as many votes as
Parker. It ia reported that ex.Queen
Lilioukalani secretly
Threw Her Influence to Wilcox.
There is much bitterness against her
among the Democrats who hoped that
even if they did not elect their man,
they would at least so divide the ma.
tive vote that Wilcox would be behind
Parker.
The Independent.Native party has
carried the house Of representatives by
a large majority. They will have 104
members OF the house, with 9 Repub.
licans and Independents and Demo
Gratis. In the senate there will be 7
Republicans, Independents and
Democrat.
1t il likely, as result Of the election,
that congress will be asked to establish
some limitations upon the voting priv
ilege. Many Of the whites want a
property qualification for voters. It is
argued that in voting upon simple
color line many of the natives have
shown themselves unfit for universal
suffrage.
