An Experiment
Stable Government

With what pleasurable sentimen
and what lively hopes for the future
of the Republic of the Single Star
did We read only a short time since
of the election OF President Palma
as Cubas first executive, and how his
progress to the capital was through
an atmosphere redolent of fusome
speeches, and over path strewn
with flowers by his admiring fellow
citizens. And now they are actually
talking of impeaching him. What is
the trouble, Nothing, only that Pal
ma didn't understand the Cubans.
and the Cubans didn't understand
Palma, and neither of them knew
much about running a free and rep
resentative government, anyway. The
president innocently thought it best
to make q cabinet out of mixture
Of all parties, and the consequence e
Is that they are all by ears and the
president and his policies get no
solid support from any part of the
5angling mass. One particular source
of the trouble is over the proposed
loan of $S5,OO0,0O. 1t began with a
demand for $4,000 900 to help the. su,
gar planters, then every department
wanted more added for it's own dis
bursement, and the revolutionists
wanted lot divided up among them
selves, until the stampede for the
cash made it impossible to agree on
anything. Palma proposed a compro-
mise, and his secretary of agriculture
resigned in huff, Above the babel
of voices is heard the demand of one
faction that he be impeached, and of
another that he resign and quit the
oountry.-S. F. Argonaut.

MAINLAND ELECTION REsuLTs

According to Mainland election news
just to hand, the results so far as
known give the Republican party the
control of the next Congress. The Re-
publicans have the Senate by a major
ity of eleven and the House by ma
jority of twenty-five, Just sufficient
working force in both branches of the
thing that should not be lost sight Of
and that is the Democratic party has
made great gains in both houses, ma
terially reducing the former heavy ma
jority of the Republican party, confirm
ing our remarks of the other day that
the Democratic party will surely make
a strong headway, and that they have
surely shown. And instead of control

have somewhat materially changed its
complexion to slight working major

Hawaiians should learn good OBJ
ject lesson from the recent Mainland
elections in the fusion of the Labor
Union party with the Democratic par
ty. Why? Because the Democratic par
ty is recognized as the party of the
people and of the masses. 1t is the
party of the laboring poor, and not of
the wealthy aristocrats and plutocrats.
No Labor Union organization is known
to associate with the Republican party,
as it is party in antagonism to the
direct interest of the laboring masses.

Yes Jonah made his choice by be-
ing forcibly impressed into it through
business necessities and for purely

made a grand success for the party OF
his implied choice, when, at the elev.

him in his choice, for he has shown
great stamina in swallowing mud" in
those who overthrew his royal aunt
and thereby he and his brother lost
possible and probable crown and
throne; those who bartered the life of
his country for probable two-cent
bounty on our sugar production; those
who imprisoned him with many of his
misguided people, clothed him in pris-
oners' garb along with his fellows,
treated him like felon and would
have been only too glad to have got
rid of him, knowing that he would yet
be thorn in their sides. Having sue
ceeded and brought his one-time ene--
mics to their mettle, we yet have hopes
to see him rise like a phoenix out of
the ashes of the ruins made and
brought about by them, whereby he
and his countrymen lost independence
and nationality, and since have be-
come subjects and unwilling citizens

Delegate-elect JONAH once Home

turned adrift from being with the then
predominant party, naturally carried a
certain following along with him in
the younger element which the faith

nize. and which was proven on cleo
tion day. The party that he organiz-
ed, after being cut adrift from the
Home Rulers is only nondescript of
an unknown quantity and which did
not cut any figure whatever in the
elections. But the personality alone
of the leader brought many of the

But of the gain that gave the Dele
gate-elect majority of nearly 1000
votes, it must have come mainly from
among those who voted for the former
Democratic leading candidate and
from those who yet lean towards the
"alii' and from among the younger ell
ement, this latter the new force and
power in future elections. Still Home
Rulers have the credit of giving him
many votes and we believe 1t to be so
now, for there are yet many among
them who have leanings toward the
young man, knowing his personality
and character so we'll as that of true
born son of the SOIL although of the
upper crust by chance, and that is well

We are somewhat drifting away
from our subject, and to return to 1t,
the Republican gains have been from
among certain decent" Democrats
who, for purely business reasons, de-
serted party at the last home stretch,
and from the recruits through naturali-
zaticn and otherwise. Comparing the
figures of the last election with those
of the one just passed, conceding to
the Republicans the whole Democrat
ic vote given to their candidate for
Delegate at the former elections, to-
gether with the increase in newly.
made voters, is just about the major
ity received by the leading Republi-
can candidate with hardly any loss to
the Home Rule party. Although 1t is
claimed that Home Rulers voted for
the Republican tickets. which may be
truly so, but figures do not show 1t.
unless the Home Rulers, through a
misunderstanding with the local De-
mocracy, gained some votes from that
source as we'll as from others.

LESSONS TO LEARN.

According to the summary of our
recently held elections, it is plainly
seen in the figures that the Home Rul-
ers have not lost anything, but instead
they have remained stationary and
have somewhat gained in strength,
particularly in the votes cast for Dele
gate Wilcox. And they have them
selves to blame for losing, in their dec
lination of the fusion proposition,
which we had strongly urged its con-
summation, with the weaker party in
this Territory at the present time, but
of more potential force in our now ma
tional affairs. The Democratic party,
although admitted to be the weakest
party here through prejudicial reas-
ons and causes brought about by the
former activity of certain parties OBJ
jectionable to the masses, evidently
holds the balance of power. Had fu-
sion been accomplished, not in a half
hearted measure as was shown lately,
both together would have made a bet
ter showing and given the Republic
ans some rubbing to do.

We do not seem to take the proper an
