WOMAN HOME RULE LEADER
PLEADS REPUBLICAN, CAUSE
Mrs. Fannie Sebo Declares Prince Kuhio Will
Carry island of Kauai by Big
Majority.

Before 1 go I appeal to you all to
vote for the Republican ticket" With
these words Mrs. Fannie Sebo, two
years ago chairman of the womans
section of the Kalaiana Society, closed
a speech at the Kalihi camp last even
ing which reused the three hundred
men and women in attendance to a
pitch of enthusiasm not before reached.
although she followed able and eloquent
pleaders for the cause of progress
1t was a fitting close, for the people
had heard her before, knew she had la
bored hard for the cause of wilcoxism
and that in her change of heart there
was much that meant strength for the
cause of Prince Kuhio. Mrs. Sebo said
that she came of her own free will,
without solicitation, to speak for the
cause of Republicanism. She told of
being in caucuses of the Home Rulers
when measures had been decided upon,
but the majority members of the last
legislature had been unfaithful to the

people. They had promised much but
had passed only the Lady Dog bill. She
said that in her home, Hanapepe, there
were none but Kuhio men, and that Re
publicanism would sweep Kauai from
Hanalei to Lihue. The people she said
were disgusted with Akina, Puuiki and
the others, and that they would be left
at home. In every sentence of her ad-
dress were words Of cheer and she was
applauded to the echo.
Kaeo, the veteran wharfmaster, as
well pleaded with the people to stick
close to the Republican ticket. He said
ne had been called father to the work
ingrnan. and he wanted them to help
MIN elect the entire Republican ticket.
These were only two of the notable
addresses which marked the Kalihi
Camp meeting. All the candidates
spoke of the necessity of electing leg
islature which would work for the good
of the people, and of sending a man to
washington who would have friends all
around him to help in securing benefits
for Hawaii. The meeting was largely
attended and exceeded IN enthusiasm
any yet held in the Camp.

Dear Sir:-Carroll D. Wright has no
doubt reported to you the delivery of
your message to me last Monday and
my statement to him that / should take
your suggestion under advisement, al
though I did not look upon it with fa-
vor.
Since that time I have consulted with
our district presidents, who concur full
ly in my views.
We desire to assure you again that
we feel keenly the responsibility of our
position and the gravity of the situa-
ton and it would give us great pleasure
to take any action which would bring
this coal strike to an end in manner
that would safeguard the interests of
our constituents.

ON the conditions we suggested in the
conference at the White House we be-
lieved that we had gone more than half
way and had met your wishes.
1t is unnecessary in this letter to re-
fer to the malicious assault made upon
us in the response of the coal operators.
We feel confident that you must have
been impressed with the fairness of our
proposition and the insincerity of those
who maligned US.
Having in mind our experience with
the coal operators in the past we have
no reason to feel any degree of conf
dencc in their willingness to do us JUS
tica in the future, and inasmuch as
they have refused to accept the decision
of a tribunal selected by you and mas
much as there is no law through which
you could enforce the findings of the
commission you suggest, we respect
fully decline to advise our people to re-
turn to work simply upon the hope that
the coal operators might be induced or
forced to comply with the recommends
tions of your commission.
As stated above, we believe that we
went more than half way in our pro-
posal at Washington, and we do not

agreement has been entered into
among the 1900 employees of the Chi

provides that none of their number

This action has just been taken with
the hope of Its being extensively imi-

example is followed by the laboring
men of the entire country, the reign Of
high prices In meat will speedily end.
and that this article OF food Will re.

who are pushing the movement argue
that the eating of meat Is more OF

habit at that, and that with the pres
