Then.

IL ILO, Hawaii, Nov. 3.-The final mass
meeting of the Republicans will
be held Monday evening, says
the Tribune, and is intended to give ev-
cry voter the right tip such a few hours
before the election that he won't forget
it. The brass band, which is Republican
to the core, will shatter the volumes of
Democratic and Independent haze which
the vaporings Of the leaders of those par
ties, especially Wilcox, has created. These
clouds of false doctrines will be dispersed
Ike the dew before the morning sun or
a Japanese mob before the valiant cud-
gels of Hilo's police force Golden ton
gued orators, with asbestos larynxes and
brazen threats, will meet the multitudes,
the band and the wise virgins with oil in
their Republican lamps, at the F'ishmar-
ket. and there tell them many things they
ought to know, and which, If they are
wise, they will lay to heart. Among the
speakers of the occasion will be A. B..
Loebenstein, Judge G. F. Little, Carl S.
Smith, c. w. Blacow, Harry Rycroft, j..
ID. Lewis, Chas. williams. Jas. Nation,
j. U. Smith, Geo. Kaihenue, and possibly
other oratorical celebrities. Everybody
come. Admission free Seats for ladies
in the parquette.
| The people of Hawaii have made up
their minds, that the Territory is not to
be disgraced by sending to Washington a
freak like Wilcox, whose sole field of use
fulness is in dime museum. Everybody
On whom rests responsibility for the well
fare of Hawaii, and they include every
citizen, should show his sympathy with
TINS purpose by turning out Monday night
at the rally and Tuesday at the polls.
REPUBLICANS LYING LOW.
Hawaii must be a very doubtful part of
the Territory, says the Hawaii Herald.
Brother Wilcox has made two personal
efforts to win votes and Prince David and
his spellbnders are having their second
spasm. The Republicans are like Brer
Rabbit-''jes' layin' low" The Hawaii
ans are the brightest of any race of peo-
pie, excepting only the Anglo Saxon. They
have read what the Democratic party has
not done for people with dark skin and
have searched the Scriptures without find
ing any truthful account of what the par
ty has done for the Improvement of their
people or the condition of the poorer
| classes. They are satisfied 10 vote the
Republican ticket though they may be

palgn orators who come up from Homo
TINS Island to a great extent is dependent
upon the development of new enterprises
and the Herald knows of several that will
re brought into life in the event of a con-
tinuance of the Republican party in DOW
err The Democrats will tell YOU that
while this may be true, it is due to the
TACT that capitalists lock their money in
their vaults merely to spite the Demo-
cratic party. That is insinuating that ALI
wealthy men are Republicans Capital
lists DO not bury their money through
spite but through fear; they are unwill-
ing to invest their money during the adj
mlnistration of political party that dis
organizes trade through its desire to
make changes, not because changes are
needed but merely because the authority
Is vested in them to do so. 1t is absolute
folly for this Territory to send to Con-
gress man whose political views are not
IN harmony with the administration and
the Hawaiians realize the fact that Pres
lcent Mckinley will be reelected and
that the Republican party will have
majority In both houses of Congress-
TURNCOAT EMMELUTH.
The greatest objection the Independent
party has to the Republicans is the fact
that they are supposed to be annexation
lists, says the Hawaii Herald And now
comes John Emmeluth, one of the most
radical men in the overthrow of the mon
archy, and allies himself with the party
whose orators refer to all haoles as
snakes and cockroaches." Evidently all
is grist that goes to the Independent mill.
According to Mr.. Emmeluth I'm 1893 the
Hawaiians would have to go, but in 1900
ne swings in the circle and goes over to |
the party whose slogan is Down with the |
haoies! Hawaiians should have no diff |
Ecuity in judging now what sort of stuff |
the independent party is made of.
