s. h kaloa, one of the best OF the
| Harvey His remarks were along the
same lines as have already been re
| ported
John Richardson told of his trip 10
Washington and how he had decided to
withdraw from politics. When he heard
of Wilcox trying to bamboozle the peo-
pie he then thought il his duty to get N
and fight him. He feared If Wilcox had
his way there would be another reyolu-
ton. as Wilcox was leading the natives
astray How can Wilcox call himself
independent when lie is assCSiating him
self with the white people who dragged
him to Jail? Wilcox had stated that men
in congress had told him to come here
and run as an independent candidate.
This was not right. Don't believe what
Wilcox says. If you want TO vote for
republicans. vote; if you want TO vote
for democrats, vote. but don't vote for
the Independents. The people of the
United States have but two parties.
Why should we have more?
When Blount was sent here by the
United States he ordered the American
flag pulled down and the Hawaiian flag
raised again. Blount was sent by the
democrats. This shows the respect the
party had for the natives and so the Ha-
waiians should support the democratic
party.
Wilcox claims TO hate the white people,
but who are his closest friends? They
are Caypless and Moreno. both white
men. The Hawaiians are bound TO work
along the same lines with the whites
Wilcox wants 10 go to Washington 10
work for the claims of his wife and moth
err Ii he should succeed in these claims
will he return and distribute among you
HawaiianS who he is asking to support
him? No.
How is at that Wilcox has taken on
the independent ticket Emmeluth, who
helped put him in Jail?
f. Il. McClanahan, the next speaker
met with an ovation.
Political parties are like men. for by
their works you shall know them" said
the speaker. You don't have to label
a man nor a party TO know it. | am
going to describe the two parties 20
there will be no need to name them. One
the party of the man.
when / say that the republican party
is the party of the dollar and the demo
cratic party is the party of the man |
describe the fundamental principle of the
parties. The republican party has al
ways in this campaign refused to dis
cuss anything but the money question.
In 1858 the republicans declared that al
men We're free and equal. In the lare

republicans should be ashamed on &C.
connt of the way they have treated the
Filipinos and there should not be one
vote east by Hawaiians for-the party.
The right of the American government
or the president to send soldiers to the
Philippines has never been approved BY
the American people and | believe that
when the votes are cast and counted on
November il will be found that the

pines. When he knew that the Filipinos
were fighting for their liberty he did not
act honestly with them to get them %
fight with the Americans against the
Spaniards and then turn on them to try
and make them q colony.
No wonder after this treatment that
the republicans try and dodge the real
issue and talk about money. l deny the
truth of the statement made the other

IL you send Parker 10 congress you send

Interest in the States on the way Ha
