care was taken to see that they came IN
contact with no person not representa-
tive OF the Dole oligarchy. The mis-
sionaries and bankers and members Of
the sugar growers monopoly dine
and wined them and looked sanctimon-
ious and talked of love for the United
States and loyalty to the flag. They are
all adopts IN the art of hypocrisy ana
smiled at the ease with which the COM
mission was deceived.
No greater mistake in government
was ever made than the reappointment
of President Dole. That act confirmed
in pow handful of monopolists who
despise the government upon which
they call for protection. 1t made II
impossible for any new capital to en-
gage in business in the Islands or fo-
any enterprise for the benefit of all the
people to be established.
Under the Dole regime the loyal and
true Americans engaged in trade dare
not say that their soul is their own.
for every man, woman, child and an.
dutsry on the Islands may only live Or
exist at the pleasure of President Dole
and the sugar barons, half dozen IN
number.
Not only are commercial travellers
not wanted on the Islands and are

dozen men, and President Dole DOES
not wish the monopoly disturbed. Vt

election in the Islands when Mr.. VIII

The natives have been oppressed n.

permitted to engage in business by tn,

To rebuke these tyrants in trade ant

That Is not desired by majority II
the Islands, but 1t Is certain that thu

have more real freedom and indepen
