on the mainland there We're always
Home Rule parties, or parties actuated
by the same principles as the Home
Rulers here. The Republicans had told
their leaders on the mainland, that the
kanaka had got the best of them the
first time, but that now they controlled
the islands and had the money, brains
and tricks. and would carry the cleo
tion sure. Dole and Cooper had been
called to Washington, he said, to ex-
plain why they couldn't make the Ter
ritory Republican, for the party wanted
all new States TO be Republican. They
had been sent home and now they will
try to carry the election with money,
and if not money. then by coaxing or
threatening or with tricks and if all
else fails they will steal the ballot
boxes. They are back in the field
now" said Caypless. land if the Re-
publicans don't win this time, the little
Republican boys will be taken over
the knees of the big Republican papas
and swatted good and hard"
Caypless was greeted by cries of
spupule,'' and sit down" by men in the
crowd but continued Gov Dole is
so we'll satisfied that the Republicans
will lose and that he will be spanked
that he carries a. shingIe in the seat of
his pants right now Caypless said
further that Senator Thurston was not
Senator and had been sailing under
false colors, as he was nothing but
lobbyist. Then he had fought the ditch
bill in Washington and yet Wilcox
passed it over him, though the dele
gate was sick in bed all the time. This
he said proved that Wilcox must be a
much greater man than Thurston In
conclusion he predicted that there
would be a great landslide and rain
with flood in November, and he
Home Rulers would float out on top,
while the Republicans would be left in
the mud.
Asa Kaulia, an uncle of the late Jas.
Kaulia, said he was willing to go to the
legislature and was fit to take the place
for he had been deputy sheriff and tax
assessor. J. K. Prendergast explained
the tramsways BILL saying that he had
to introduce it because of the petition
of 1900 voters presented to him. The
crowd chaffed him considerably about
the bribery charges but Prendergast
took it all good naturedly.
Rev. Mr.. Oil of Waialua said he had
been a minister for sixteen years but
was not a missionary, and said he
wouldn't sell his body and soul to the
Republican party or to the mission
aries who had stolen the lands. He
suggested also that he would make a
good candidate for the legislature.
S. K. Mahoe, who had left the Home
Rule party with Cupid, said that he
wanted to come back and run for the
legislature as he couldn't join the Re-
publicans.
M. (. Nakuina attributed the pres
ent financial condition of the Territory
to Dole, who he said had not asked for
sufficient appropriations.
Ng Mon War spoke in English, Poe
poe interpreting for him. He said that
Senators Burton and Thurston had
spoken at the Orpheum denouncing
Wilcox, but afterwards they had come
to him and told him to tell the Chinese
citizens to vote for Wilcox, as Cupid
was too young. If the Home Rulers
elected the Legislature they could pass
thescounty bill and sweep the mission
aries all out of office.
F. w. Beckley said he had just re-
turned from Molokai and the island
was solid for the Home Rule party. He
said there was no Republican party
here and that Tom Fitch had been paid
for his speech He stated also that the
Home Rulers wanted to abolish vac
c1nation but the Governor refused
to sign the bill The Republicans had
used up all of the $50, 900 for jury ex-
penses and now there is no money left,
and the Jurors We're not paid. The
Republicans also had violated the or
ganic act and nominated a man who
could not read or write English. Beck
ley said that the natives were dying
because the missionary doctors gave
them pills, which killed them.
Wilcox, for whom the audience had
been impatiently waiting all evening,
finally appeared at the front of the
platform about eleven o'clock. ION
Wednesday we will have a meeting to
pick out the candidates for the legisla-
ture,'' he said. II have already picked
the men who are before you this even
ing, and you are to say if they are good
men on Wednesday. We have but six
ty days now and must work quickly
before election. We are anxious to get
city and county government which is
the very thing that the missionaries
don't want, for when we get that the
Home Rulers viii rule and not the
missionaries. When the Senatorial
Commission first came down here they
found three parties, Republicans, Dem
ocrats and Home Rulers, but they
nave studied over the situation and
now say there is no Republican party
here but just land-grabbers.
These missionaries came here years
ago with a Bible in their hands and
holes in their trousers. They stole the
land from sea to mountain. Now we
are the missionaries and they are eat
ing off the fat of the land.
THE Republicans had a law passed
that every man in the legislature must
be able to read and write English, and
now they nominate a man from Puma
who can dorneither. When they got to
nominating a deIegate they had plenty
of candidates, but instead they picked
out man from the Home Rule party,
Prince Cupid. We didn't need the Re
publicans, though, they are nothing but
land thieves. They are afraid we will
win this time for the few native Re
publicans are only those who are hold
ing office If we do get a majority in
both houses there viii be no more mis-
