recent campaign. One of the promises
was that there should be luau and be-

would every pledge of the Republicans
be kept in word and spirit. The poolas
or wharf workers had been told by the
Republicans that they would try and
get for them all the WORK along the
water front. The employers Of labor
ers along the water front had been n
terviewed by the members Of the COM
mittee Of the party and everyone had
been asked to give the work to the Ha-
waiians and not aliens. The outlook
was very good that this would be the
result.
Senator Achi said that he wished
everyone to feel that the Republican
party was the friend OF the people.
This would be found to be the case
after the session OF the Legislature.
The speaker was heartily applauded
upon concluding his speech and then
the natives wended their way towards
home.
AS has been stated. the feast was
prepared under the immediate direc-
ton Of +. c. Winston, J. A. Gilman and
r. n. Boyd with the assistance of such
men as Senator Achi Charles Clark
