Good, common-sense Republicanism
was talked to large assemblage in the
Portuguese Social Hall on upper Punch
bowl street last evening, and although
Prince Kuhio was unable to appear as
planned, yet deep impression wasl
was held under the direction of Robert
N. Boyd, ably seconded by ]. f. Durao,
the Portuguese orator. w. W. Harris,
Frank Andrade. ]. F. Durao, Robert
Boyd, L. L. McCandless and S. F. Chill
Mngworth spoke.
Those who could not get seats in the
hall stood upon the porches and peered
in through the windows-,and demon
strated their approval by frequent
bursts of applause.
w. w. Harris spoke upon the general
the business depression which had re-
suited in Hawaii because of the inaction
of the Home Rule legislature. He urged
the voters to look well to the future and
vote the straight Republican ticket.
L. L. McCandless dwelt on the fall
ures of Home Rulism and spoke earn
estly for the support of the Portuguese
voters for the men on the ticket who
would stand for good government and
make good their promises to the peo-
pie.
Frank Andrade made two speeches
during the evening, one of Republican,
ism in general, strongly urging the peo-
pie against voting scratched ticket,
and more particularly against voting
for an Independent candidate, referring
to Camara. Mr.. Andrade spoke against
the Wilcox leper bill, indicating the re-
suits which would attend the making of
Molokai national lazaretto, and the
effect the name would have upon the,
rest of the world The Hawaiian ISL
ands depended considerably upon the
tourist trade which would be driven
away in the event of the Wilcox bill
ever becoming law. The address was
applauded.
r. F. Durao made an address in Por-
tuguese in which he eloquently referred
to the past history of the Portuguese
nation and it's glorious achievements In
discoveries and commercial prestige.
The glory which accrued to the Por-,
tugllese nation in the past through the
efforts of Pedro was accomplished by
principles which today could be con-
sidered neither more nor less than those,
of Republicanism The Portuguese peo-
pie had passed through a period or
darkness owing to leaders who had led
them in the wrong paths. Now was the
time when they could emerge from their
darkness by voting the Republican
ticket, straight through, for it was the
Republican party in the United States
which was now making the great Re-
public the greatest on the globe. He
urged the voters to vote for Andrade
and told of his qualifications for the,
office of a legislator. He was young
man we'll known, who had the conf
dence of the Republican party which
had seen fit to place him on the ticket
above others put forward, and he knew
he would do what he could for the Por-
tuguese people in the legislature.
S. F. Chillingworth said for man
of his age to get up before an audience
and tell them TO vote the Republican
ticket was worthy of consideration, for
he was not the one to attempt to lead
the people into wrong ways. His stand
in furthering the principles of the Re
publican party emanated from the base
of all good things, the family. 1t was
a duty he owed his family to vote for
good government. He asked what the
Home Rule legislature had done and
voices shouted from the hall, Moth
ingi" All they did was to spread out
the session as long as possible and
draw their salaries. The speaker re-
counted Wilcox's failures at Washing
ton and his f1imsy excuses to his people
here and again his falsehoods to Con-
gress as to the status of the party
which sent him there. Congress could
see right through his attempts TO lie
and he had therefore accomplished
nothing for the Territory, except to
separate $1,000 salary and expenses from
Uncle Sans strong box.
Robert n. Boyd made a stirring ad-
dress on the duty which all owed to the
Republican party on the mainland by
sending Prince Cupid to Congress as
the representative of the people here
and urged all to vote the straight Re
publican ticket.
KUHIO AT MOILIILI.
Prince Kuhio appeared before the vot-
ers of MoiIiili last night and held them
to every word he uttered in behalf OF
the Republican party, himself as the
nominee of that party for delegate TO
Congress and for the legislative ticket
When the meeting was about to be call
ed to order, which was long before the
Prince arrived. Camara, an independent
seeker for votes, came at the head of
band of musicians and two kegs Of
beer.
