build them. (Applause.) If Wilcox goes
to Mckinley, who Is the source and CEN
ter of all suggestions and is very excel
lent gentleman, do you suppose that Nc
] Kinley Is likely to grant his requests
He will be received cordially, but you can
be certain that Mckinley Is not going TO
| tumble all over himself to carry out any
II his propositions. He may give David n
better recognition because he would rec
ognize in him a descendant of royalty.
When Parker goes to Mckinley to make
suggestions about these improvements of
ours, Mckinley will not only give him
the glad hand but the warm heart and
we will have plenty of prosperity.
1.-THE Independents have thrown out
| the banner of Kamehameha and by
that banner expect to succeed. 1t Is my
pride that history boasts such great
man as Kamehameha l. for he was a
great soldier and statesman. He never
taught the lesson that Wilcox and his
followers are teaching now. If he did,
what would 1t have been? He would
have said to Maui, to Oahu and To
Kauai, BE Independent and organize
yourselves But he said nothing of the
kind. What he said was this, We are
geographically so located that we
should form one great Hawaiian ma
tion,' and 1t was made one nation. You
remember that the Territory of Hawaii
| is not q government by itself. Hawaii
stands related to California, to New
York and to Ohio. 1t would be the
same as If California was told to be in
| dependent and to organize for itself,
and the same for New York and the
same for Ohio. Kamehameha said, Let
each Island break down the line OF
separation and form one great nation,
He acted upon this and united all the
islands of Hawaii under q single ban
ner
1.-THE Democratic party is now engag-
ed in an effort to disfranchise the col
ored American voters. If the dark
skinned people of Porto Rico, the Phil
| ippines and of Hawaii want to have the
| fun privileges of American citizenship
they must support the Republican par
/ ty."
The next speaker was George r. Car
ter one of the legislative candidates.
He apologiZed to the audience for not
being public speaker, and stated II
was an entirely new experience for
him. He said he felt very much like
Hanlon, the great oarsman, when after
rowing race TO victory he was taken
up on the shoulders of the crowd and
carried to a building and placed In a
prominent position, from which he was
expected to make a speech. Hanlon had
a speech written which reposed In his
inside pocket. His friends urged him
to speak, but he could not. At last they
got him to his feet, and he went
through the motions with his lips of
speaking, but not a sound did he utter.
He gestured and made much ado in this
manner. Afterwards q reporter rushed
up to him and said, that 1t was great
speech and that he would like to have
1t in full. Hanlon replied certainly.
and pulled out a written speech from
his pocket. Mr.. Carter stated that he
would much prefer the reporter OF the
morning paper making up speech for
him and printing 1t, rather than that
he should deliver one.
I'VE are entering our first campaign"
said he, under American auspices.
Politics are generally of a personal ma
ture, and antagonisms and factions
have been created. / hope that no such
conditions will arise In the present
campaign. Harmony prevails in the
party and we are now ready to buckle
down to hard work. II is to be cam
paign OF education. We want every ma
tive to understand the principles. of the
Republicans party. We want the United
States and everyone to know that we
are not an ignorant set of people here
and not able to control our affairs. This
is the first and most important matter
