The Honolulu republican. [volume] (Honolulu, T.H.) 1900-1902, 1901-09-12

What does all this mean? Why should
the ungrateful and dish0nored Hankey.
the tool of Thurston and his meek and
lowly Bar Association followers ask for
more time?
The malicious and libelous Thurston-
ian organ, the Advertiser. offers no ex-
PLANTATION. Ii says that Humphreys is a
liar; but this is an old time sobriauet
given by the Advertiser it has also
called Humphreys a criminal: it has said
that he was a dead dog in pit il has
expressed grief that Humphreys didn't
die in Chicago hospital it has said
that titse was a new Richmond on the
way armed with affidavits that would
crush Humphreys beyond repair: it has
told all about the rapid manner in
which Humphreys would be unceremoni-
ously kicked out of Office at the COM
mand of Thurston and his malicious.
cowardly gang.
But the organ of Thurstonian malice
fails TO inform the much amused pub
lie by it is that Hankey. the migrate
the tool. earnestly requests five DAYS
in which TO file brief in reply to Judge
Humphreys statement before the At

sweet pleasure amid the pools of their
own making that reek with the product
of the sewers of malice. Let them rise

garbage of rancorous spite.
The Bulletin will not attempt to ex-
plain why Hankey was so earnestly SOL

citizen. however. Il appears that Han

capitol: that il is not so much a ques-
ton of when Humphreys win be removed

preside over the Territory of Hawaii as

And what of Humphreys defense? The
Bulletin fails TO note that Humphreys

for giving these schemers. defamers and
