corporation, but he hoped the day was
at least not far distant when every
city town and hamlet would have lis
own corporate government. He was
glad TO seee the recommendations of an
adequate allowance to Her Majesty the
eX-Quecn to assuage the sorrows of her
declining years. In conclusion he
adapted the good old story of the farm
err and his two sons and the woodchurK
calling the boys Sam, David and
Bob-to illustrate the respective atti-
tudes of the three local parties. Bob
was an Independent because he wanted
the woodchuck.
The band played rally while the
speaker received hearty applause.
T. McCANTs STEWART.
T .McCants Stewart was introduced
as one who was always gladly hear l..
Reverting to the record demonstration
made at the Mckinley Roosevelt rati-
| fcation here, he attributed the vigor
and tn enthusiasm of Honolulu people
| in public affairs to the combination OF
the active influences of the east, mid
die and west of the United States in
these Islands. Similar combinations Oi
vigorous elements gave Alexander tSe
Great his fame. The vigor of the Re-
publican party was due to its young
men. People of this Territory had a
problem to solve in the choice of which
of the three parties they would follow
and support. Independent parties mai
been started by able men in the States,
but, even under such able leaders as
Butler, Greeley and others, you would
search national history in vain with 4
double magnifying glass to find any
useful impress made by Independents.
The present day Butler, he Of North
Carolina, had to turn to the Republic
can party when he desired to effect
anything for his constituents. He
placed Prince David alongside of VIII
cox, under existing circumstances, as a
useless man to send to Washington.
Telling of natives of the West Coast OF
Africa masquerading in plug hat or a
Prince Albert coat. and with no other
apparel imagining they were well
dressed, he said that the election q;
Prince David or Wilcox would be sim.
ply the sending of Prince Albert coat
or plug hat to Washington. We
wanted the United States to erect pub.
lie buildings and start public work;
here, when Americans. Hawaiian and
Portuguese, all United States citizens
would have employment in public posi-
ton and upon public works. Arguins
that Prince David would have It'll.
If any more inuuence at Washington
than Mr.. Wilcox-against whom nj
his motives he had nothing to say--ht
went on to say that. fully respecting
the Hawaiian love of independence, nc
would nine times prefer to have the
United States in possession Of Hawai-
than to have Japan at its throat. Lou
applause and calls of That's right. o"
Wilcox was not following the exampl,
of Kamehameha l., who fought fo
the unity of the Islands. That grea
Hawaiian stood not for segregation bu
for naturalization, and II he lived a

Hawaii with the United States. III!
speaker then reviewed Cleveland's ad
ministration to show that II was char
acterized by hard times. Before thu
election the Democrats gave the Ha
waaians the glad hand but after th'
election would give them the marbl,
heart. II ever an attempt were MAD,

party. They were engaged today IL

/, with laughable anecdotes, Mr.. McCanti
Stewart closed with reasons why Re-
publicanism should he adopted by tn,
people of Hawaii, giving statistics T.
show that the workingmen Jared bette

amidst great applause.
GEO. X. CARTER.
