THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The result OF agitation here on
behalf OF the men belonging to the
different political parties in the
States must have proven to Repub-
licans as we'll as to Democrats that
the majority of the voters in this
territory is not yet ready to take
sid-s in political matters which in
volve national issues. The Adver
tiser may claim that the Hswaiians
are being misled by us and that
their salvation lies in voting Tor
Thurston, McCants Stewart and
other ardent republicans. The
Democrats. who haven't got an
organ yet may attempt tn induce
the voters to support their ticket,
and even thePopulists, Prohibitioniet
and other parties may "orsanize"
and ask the Hawaiians to vote with
them.
