ing, from Honolulu. They we're met at
the landing by Messrs. w. F. Pogue
and A. N. Kepoikai from Waikiki and
a large delegation of Lahaina Repub-
licans. That same evening the Prince
delivered a most effective and con-
vincing speech to the many hundreds
who were eager to hear him and no
doubt many converts were made by the
simple force of his logical arguments.
On the following morning CWednes-
day. the party left for Honolua. the
magnificent country home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. r. c. Searle, making speeches en-
route. The party was entertained to
most sumptuous luau that evening
by Mr.. and Mrs. Searle.
On Thursday the Prince and party
passed through Honokohau and Kaha-
kuloa and Waihee, arriving in Waikiki
that afternoon. The Republican party
of this town had prepared a big luau
at the Waikiki skating rink to which
all we're cordially invited, and which
almost the whole town OF Wailuku
and vicinity attended. Special trains
were run from Puunene and Paia that
night to convey people to the speech.
making and return the same night.
It was a tremendous gathering that
greeted the Prince as he entered the
hall at about o'clock p. m. Long Ia
bles were laid across the building. All
were heavily laden with catables OF
Ii. To n1l and
big and small and of both sexes were
seated on either side Of the long ia
bles, and the bright and happy coun-
tenances they wore gave assurances
of their affectionate feelings and real
genuine aloha for the Prince. a member
OF the royal house which they revere
, so much.
Most of Wailuku's leading citizens
all Republlcans-were there with their
families, and none were more enthu-
siastic over the utterances of the
Prince as he explained step by stem
logical Republican principles, than the
ladies themselves. The Prince address,
ed the big audience for nearly an hoir
and his remarks were well received.
The audience was surprised at the
nuency and the oratorical powers OF
the Prince for II was the first time they
, had heard him in public and they had
no idea that he was such a Uglral,
1 deep thinker. free from innuendoes and
personalities and depending on winning
his audience by simply using straight
forward. common sense utterances.
and heaping no such abusive epithets
as "cockroaches" on his opponents, as
his antagonist Bob" Is doing.
The Prince explained at length the
EVIL that will come by transferring the
custody of the leper settlement to the
Federal government. He told them Of
Wilcox's attempt to. make Caypless
Third Circuit Judge Of the First Judi
cial Circuit, which spoke for itself OF
Wilcox's great "aloha for the Hawa'
iians." The Prince told them that the
country is full of capable men-haoleS
and natives alike-who can fill that
Office with honor; but no, WILCOX
thought that not even the Hawaiians
we're competent enough. and so an adj
venturer like Caypless was recommend
ed for the place.
; He told them that neither Wilcox mol
his Home Rule Legislature ever &C
complshed anything for the country
and for the people. While the Home
Rule party had the majority in the las
Legislature, none OF their party evel
got into power. All they did for thu
, countr was to make caricatures In thu
: legislative hall, and make playthings o
their constituents. He urged upon hi
I, hearers not to heed what the Hom
Rule leaders were spreading broadcas
with the cry OF down with tn
a, haoles." That was dangerous and un
wise and only done as bait to catcl
votes.
