the charges OF manufacturing twi pes
and illegal selling OF same was fined
$3.50 by Judge Estee ON the former
charge. A stay OF proceedings was
granted for five days TO enable bim

argument by the attorney for the
defense, Il. w. RJbinson, the
cases against the two women we're
nolle pressed aud the second chsrgs
against Kahanauapo was dismissed.
The maximum foe for each offense
is $500 but in view OF the plea OF
counsel and as the defendant had
never before been convicted OF any
public otfsnss a 6ne OF the stated
amount was imposed. The young
attorney, who wa, only admitted to

congratulations from his older

THE POLITICAL POT.

The voters in the Territory real
ize more and more, that they must
send men to the next Legislature,
who will plainly show the Presi'
dent and his government, that the
Dole regime must be brought to
an end, or the official business Of
the Territory to a standstill. The
President is too good an American
to ignore the will OF the people
ia any part OF the United States,
and his retaining OF Governor Dole
in Office is simply the result OF his
lack OF understanding OF the true
situation in Hawaii. He is told by
the faction, composed OF the tools
OF our missionary millionaire, that,
as long as the government OF Ha-
waii is in the hands OF the plant
ers all will be we'll, aud no heed,
need be taken to the protests and
mutterings OF the great majority
of the voters who, through an un-
fortunate error, were granted the
franchise by the organic act. Mr..
Roosevelt knows little or nothing
OF Hawaii and cares less for our
internal affairs, but he listens cour-
teously to all the bores who talk
Hawaii to him, and urges them to
go home and try to get along un-
der existing conditions a little
longer. So Dole remains in Office
and enjoys tbs confidence OF the
President, whatever that may
mean, and the President sprinkles
eau de cologne over his desk aud
says wearily that settles Hawaii,
let in the Cubad delegation and
their grievances"
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1902-06-14

1t behooves the Hawaiians and
the many foreign voters, who are
opposed to the Dole regime, to Sc
lect and elect men to the next legis
lature, who will work in the interest
OF their tituents, and, as their
first duty, will fad means and take
steps to demonstrate, beyond all
doubt, the want of confidence the
people have in Mr.. Dele. Let the
Legislature show the feeling OF the
people in such a manner that the
President, even il he wished to, can
not avoid realizing that his
choice for governor OF the Territory
is unwise and to the Hawaiiaus, un-
just. 1t is human to err, but to
persevere in the error is criminal
and we believe that Roosevelt 10
man enough 10 admit his mistakes
which undoubtedly were uninten-
tional, by at first appointing and
now white washing governor, who
has not even the support OF the
political party to which he belongs.
Lst the voters remember that they
must send strong men to the naxt
Legislature, men who cannot be cor
rupted by the unscrupulous bribe-
givsrs whom the Republican party
may send forth. Let the next Legis-
lature be composed OF o solid
pbalanx of men, who, once for all
will eXterminste The family compact
