Small Pox Scare,

There iP considerable small pOx
through Oklahoma and Kansas City,
II has done no particular havoc 80 far,
but in places some people are fright
ened so that we may look for runners
of almost any sort here. In fact there
have been rImors Of 1t In Hutchinson,
but only rumt RS, and DR., Stewart, the
county physician, conlradicts every
thing Of that sort In X insas City the
trouble seems to be confined entirely to
the negrots
There Is Il case at Pretty Prairie
which appears to be the real stuff.
There are also other cases at King
man and other stations further down
the line Of the II. & S. branch. DIR.
". NJ. Stewart and DR. Raster, chief
surgeon of the Santa Fe, took q trip to
Oklahoma to investigate, Friday, but
we're met with such strict quarantine
regulations that they had to return
without seeing any of the cases. They
say 1t Is undoubtedly small poX, though
Il very mild form. Such 1t seems to be
all over the country. The cases on
this side the State line are mostly of
railroad uen, but they are now quar-
antined and so isolated that there is
no danger of the disease spreading.
The reason the disease has become
so well spread is the fact that II is so
mild as to occasion little alarm, men
frequently losing but two or three
days work. 1t is probably the same
thing Topeka has been wrestling with
under the name Of "Cuban chicken
poX."

THE TRIO AT WAIANAE.
A Hundred Natives Hear Speeches
IN the Church.
Especial Correspondence.l

WAIANAE, June l9.-About one hun
dred native men, women and children
gathered at the Waianae church this
evening at o'clock to listen to the
speeches of j. X. Kaulia, Kalauokalani
and Bob" Wilcox, the leaders of the
Independent party.
j. X. Kaulia presided and opened the
meeting by calling on S. b. Hui, an ex-
deputy sheriff. for a prayer. Follow
Ing Hui's invocation. Kalauokalani took
the platform and delivered himself of
an eloquent and interesting address.
He explained TO the gathering the prin-
ciples of the Independent party and
dwelt on the purport OF Territorial law.
He reviewed the report of Bob" Will
cox upon his return from the States
and urged Hawaiians to stand up for
equal rights with everybody. He spoke
at length upon what the mass meeting
OF independents had done at the drill
shed and urged upon those present the
necessity of identifying themselves
with the Independent party of Hawaii.
When Wilcox took the floor he prac-
tcally repeated what he said at the
drill shed mass meeting not long ago.
j. X. kaulia read the platform of the
Independent party to the assembly af-
ter which he dilated upon the respective
merits OF the three leading political
parties of this Territory: Republican.
Democratic and Independent. He said
the Independent was to the other par
ties as the weight-registering bar of a
weighing machine is to the rest of the
apparatus. The Independent party
showed results and that was the point
to be considered.
In speaking of the so-called anti-ha-
ole sentiment. Kaulia said that the par
ty was not responsible for any of this
sentiment which might exist Rev. s.
E. Bishop, he said, was responsible for
the feeling on account OF certain artl-
cles he had written in United States ma

Railroad Line.

PEARL CITY. June 19.-Three native
politicians who represent the Native
INDEPENDENT Party OF Hawaii addressed
a mass meeting here at 10 "A. IN. The
trio we're Robert Wilcox, j. i. kaul!a
and kalauokalani, and they plan for a
trim of several days covering most OF
Oahu. Their idea Is to bring all the
natives into the fold of their party and
to urge them to continue at once
against the other parties
The meeting was called to order here
by Kalauukalani who said that the OBJ
jects of their coming were the same as
stated in the mass meeting at the drill
shed some days ago. When Kalauoka-
Iani BEGAN there were few under one
hundred and fifty men, women ana
children present, and they listened at
tentively He was brief and Robert
Wilcox succeeded him on the platform
which was erected in the open air near

port of his journey to Washington and
his accomplishments there as he did In

in the drill shed meeting.
tive party and said that the purposes
of the party were for the good of all.
Kaulia wLo at the drill shed had eX-
claimed, xiii the snake!'-meaning
the haole party-talked in a different
vein at Pearl City. He particularly ad-
dressed himself to the women. He ad-
yised them to influence their husbands
to do right to everybody and said "If
your men should not act in the proper
way. leave them forever and if you
have not money to carry on any suits
in court, | will be your attorney at no
expense to you" He drew many hearty
laughs from his audience despite his
seriousness.
Many stood up. William Moffman
announced that he was a candidate for
the legislature and so did John Poe and
+. NJ. Keone. They had hardly finished
pleas for their own recognition when
up rose an old man, Kahukumakalani
and denounced them as unfit. He said
that the self-nominated candidates
were not the men they wanted AMI pro-
posed that legislative candidates be
named by the central committee of the
native party. The words of the old man
whose name means THE Lord In Heav-
en-" were received with cheers and his
suggestion was adopted unanimously.
The meeting then adjourned.
