A very lame excuse is made by the
Advertiser this morning in its opposi-
tion to the most popular of the Home
Democratic Senatorial candidates
AS chairman of the House Committee
on Public Lands and Internal Improve
ments, Jesse p. Makainai had no more
to do with the shelving of the alleged
Loan bill than others of his party. We
believe the treatment accorded that
measure was right, just and proper to
public interest. Had the Government
felt that loan was necessary TO inter
nal progress, 1t should have introduced
such measure in the beginning of the
session. But no, instead of that, it was
held back till the eleventh hour, after
the Governor and Secretary Cooper had
antagonized both the House and Senate
with bribery charges, improper En-
glish composition, right to intimida;e
The legislative body with the presence
of an official, and so forth, and as last
resort, tried to force loan bill. To
blame one man for the defeat of such
measure is TO impose upon the people
false impression as to the pigeon
holing Of such an imp!ous measure. A

In reference to the past, we may be
able to overlook them, but it's Nigh
ty hard matter to forget them. The
treatment accorded the people by
haoles whom they befriended, nursed
and fed, cannot be too soon nor easily
forgotten, and yet the whites say why
do we say of them as we do, although
they are those who have made the coun-
try what it is. Be that as it may, they
have enjoyed the benefits of the coun.
try, and for gratitude they have robbed
us of country, independence and ma
tionality, and have brought us down to
our status of today, subservient peo.
pie without being listened to. And
now, these same people are crying at
us to look and see that their interests
are not ruined. Did they think so at
one time? They gave the people no
thought, only their own aggrandize-
ment, and now they are believing like
roaring bulls.

that no employer has the right to de.

otherwise. And il laborer, in order
not to loose his job, acquiesces in the

of his more popular rival and opponent
for legislative distinction. AS far as
Makainai is concerned, we can safely
say that he is true blue.

So it is with capital, which go hand
in hand with the employer who in
vests capital in any undertaking thai
he does to benefit himself and the
amount of capital he may invest in
such an undertaking. But could such
capital invested get on without labor?
Can any employer get along without
the employment of labor, or in other
words, without laborers? Nay, nay;
capital and labor must work hand in
hand in order to get along well. When
labor is employed, the laborer is bene'
fitted as well as the amount OF capital
invested by the employer. One eau

As already stated herelnaDove,

and so he has over his politics. Aside
from himself and his employers in.
terests, he must look after the inter
ests of the state who offers him pro.
lection in the enjoyment of living as
a law-abiding citizen. And of course
in doing so, he must look after the in
terest of his home and of his family
But when a man disregards this God
given right by abusing it as well as
abusing the rights of family and Of
home, then it is that he has lost all in
terest in the enjoyment OF these priv
ileges.

roaring bulls,

AS in the past, so will the Hawaiians
do at the present. Whatever is to the
interest of the country is to their own,
most of whom are poor and of the Ia
boring class. But of the future, they
must seek it themselves with the aid
of friends. They cannot expect it
from the capitalists and employers,
as these have enjoyed power too long,
but who now fear of loosing their grip.
In this grand attempt of the Hawaii
ans to rule themselves and their coun-
try, they must stay firm. The day is
not far distant, but it is surely COM
ing when Hawaiians will again enjoy
self-government in spite of the opposi-
tion and the insincority displayed by
our leading capitalists and employers.

In the counting of ballots on election

ital or in the length of his pocketbook.
An employer may urge upon laborer
the necessity of his voting according
to his interest in politics, but he no
more has the right to dictate to such
a laborer which way he should vote.
We contend that an employer may
have the right to suggest to a laboreI
how he would like him to cast his vote
and that an employer may act the
part of a political evangelist in trying
to convert laborer over to his way of
thinking as to his own personal and

We are not in opposition to capital
nor to any particular employer. We
would like to see more of them come
to the country and make investments.
We believe their interests would be
just as safe as it has been in the past,
but our laborers must and shall be as
well considered too, and don't loose
sight of them nor forget them either.
Hawaiian laborers and voters are
here to stay and they will stay too,
whether ali the whites leave the coun-
try, for they know no other country
than this country which they dearly
love.

PLATFORM
Or the Democratic Parry Of The
Territory Of Hawaii.

The Democratic Larty of the Terri
tory of Hawaii re-affirms the princi-
pies of the platform of the party adopt
ed in convention in Honolulu, H. T.,
October 8, A. ID. 1900:
And because the political history of
this Territory since that time has
shown the peculiar aptness and the
wisdom of the position taken by the
Democratic party on the issues local
to this Territory, we repeat the fol-
lowing:
The Democratic party, as the pro.
nounced and trusted friend of the la
boring classes, declares itself to be in
favor of an eight-hour labor law, and
he giving of all Government work to
citizens OF the Territory of Hawaii,
not, however, to the exclusion of male
Hawaiian residents of European ma
tionality who, because of their inabil-
ity to speak, read and write the Eng
lish or Hawaiian languages, are denied
American citizenship.
We favor the appropriation, by the
next Legislature of the Territory of
Hawaii, of liberal pension to the ex-
Queen of Hawaii, as just acknowl-
edgment due her for her great loss.
We favor an appropriation by the
Congress of the United States to COM
pensate the ex-Queen in an equitable
sum for the deprivation suffered by her
Of the Crown Lands.
We favor the payment of all proven
and just claims resulting from loss by
fire incurred through the suppression
of the recent epidemic of bubonic
plague.
We favor a revision and a modifica.
tion of all existing license laws.
We favor the enlargement and com.
prehensive development of all the har-
bors of this Territory.
AND FURTHER WE DECLARE:
That we favor the immediate enact
ment by the next Legislature of laws
creating out of the Territory of Ha-
wall, counties, towns and municipali.
ties.
That we protest against the assump.
ton of power and authority arrogated
10 itself by that creation of Governor
Dole known as the Executive Council
and declare the same to be absolutely
un-Amerlcan.
That we protest against the employ
ment of Asiatics as laborers or other
wise, either directly or indirectly, by
the government. or upon any work or
contracts to be done, and paid for,
by the Government of the Territory
of Hawaii, or any government or board
constituted hereunder.
That we oppose all efforts to dis.
franchise the Hawaians.
That the powers OF the Board OF
Health be limited and defined by leg
slative enactment.
On this platform with the ticket al

Works, will be asked to step down aud

The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1902-10-28

Capital cannot go it alone in this
world, although a capitalist may be
able to live without work. Nor can
labor go it alone without seeing to its
own interest. Therefore, capital and
labor must work together in harmony
for the common good and they must
strive together hand in hand. But
when capital seeks to override labor,
then it is that labor resents such
treatment and will work for the great
est good to the greatest number. There
are only a few capitalists and en-
ployers, but laborers predominant, aud
as the prcdominating force they de-
mand some recognition to rule and TO
enjoy the benefits of this world as
long as they are in it.
