wAILUKU, Maui. August At is
neither ZIG to T. nor imperialism" that
Is agitating the minds of members of the
Independent party on Maui, but it Is the
restoration of Liliuokalani to the throne
Of Hawaii. This is the most prominent.
plank In their party platform.
Recently an influential leader OF the In
dependents of Wailuku, in conversation
with well-known native Republican,
stated that the natives would control the
next Legislature and that the Legislature
would restore the Queen to her throne
The political attitude of this leader, vino
is a man Of intelligence and good charac-
ter. indicates the political sentiments of
the rank and file of the native party IF
Waikiki and probably of all Maui
In answer, the Republican, who pos
sesses more than ordinary political wis
dom. told the Independent how utterly
foolish and futile the proposed plan was
and also advised him and his political
friends to join with the haoles In either
the Republican or Democratic parties, Tor
though the Hawaiians may have the ma
jority in the rext Legislature, in several
years from now the haoles would surely
have and continue indefinitely to hold the
control of affairs. and IL the natives did
not show the haoles any consideration
now, they could expect little favor of
them later on.
