The Hawaiian gazette., 1902-08-19

okalani were on TIE street yesterday
after their return from Maui where
they held "a series VI meetings and nam
ed the candidates who will struggle fo-
election o. the legislature. Delegate
Wilcox gald that he was perfectly sat
isned with conditions and that his
meetings we're entirely to his liking. At
the convention at Waikiki on Satur-
day the following were nominated for
the legislature:
For Senator-William white.
For Representatives-F. W. Beckley.
c. l.. Kookoo. Solomon Kawaihoa,
Wailehua, J. X. Hihio.
ATTACKS IAUKEA.
The current issue OF Home Rule the
Wilcox organ. thus opens up on Col.
Iaukea:
THE little snake of Waialua talks
with wish-bone in his mouth. He
says he takes issue and resents the
statement that the electorate tmeaning
. thereby the Hawaiian voter is ire
sponsibe'; he says, / know you will
point to the utter incompetence and
failure of our Delegate to properly
maintain the high position of his Office.
on this score I have no defence to
offer. with heads bowed in shame, l
language from this little snake. as he
is nothing but a white-washed Hawai-
ian; he cares not for this country and
people.
He is one of those animals that has
a rope tied to his nostris and is led
here and there to suit the field. He is
one of those that will give up his birth
right for the sake of a few beans. If
l am not mistaken, he has already done
so.
Now all this talk about the Dele
gates incompetency is all 'bosh.
Delegate Wilcox has done a great deal
for this country and people, and has
done a great deal now. What has this
little white-washed Hawaiian done for
his country and people, can any one,
tell? He boted away from the ones
who showed him up to the world and
who educated him and who put him in
high positions; he loves nothing but the
Almighty Dollars, this ungrateful be-
ing. He never thanked the ones who
put him in high position and gave him
a name as he was not known in days
gone by but as n retainer for some of
the Chiefess now living, but the King
fancied him in his younger days and
took him up and made something Of
thought he was little god, and ran
Off where he is now. a white-washed
Hawaiian. No Hawaiian cares for him;
no Hawaiian talks good of him, as he
is a snake to his countrymen.
Delegate Wilcox got the franchise
for his people. Was it this little snake
of Waialua? Delegate Wilcox got five
Senators elected for the Home Rulers.
Was it this little white-washed Hawai-
ian of Waialua?
Delegate Wilcox got the commission
ers to come down to the Territory of
Hawaii to investigate every thing in
the Territory. Was it this little snake
Of Waialua!
Delegate Wilcox was the first one
who wanted the municipal and county
governments in the Territory. Was it
this little Hawaiian snake of Waia-
lua?
He better keep perfectly cool, as he
is nothing but a traitor to his country
and people. This little whitewashed
Hawaiian had better look into the
Congressional records of Washington,
d. c., and put his eye-balls on the
pages Ind look for Delegate Wilcox's
name aid find out what he has done
for his people and country, and not
talk through his hat. He has an idea
that the Capitol is small place and
that it will take but a day to get ac-
quainted with all the members of both
Houses. 1t takes a long time to get
introduced to the members, as they are
so many and they are always busy.
IT presume he is so ashamed of the
Delegates inocmpelency because he
fought for his country and his rights.
and for justice, and also he fought to
restore his Queen on the throne. Oh!
what a shame!
IT could imagine seeing him hanging
his head with shame on account of the
Delegates incompetency.
Delegate Flynn has told several
people here during his stay that Dele
gate Wilcox has been faithful man
to his country and people, and has done
all he could at Congress, and even on
his sick bed, and that he thinks that
the Delegate has not been treated right
by the people here"
WILCOX'S MAUI SPEECH.
II went to the United States Con-
gress, as has been explained by my
secretary, as your Delegate. 1t was the
only one of the 355 members of that
august body that came beyond the
seas. This body represents eighty
millions of people. so you can see the
most exalted position in which your
Delegate was placed and the great hon.
ors conferred upon him. When l was
thus honored you We're also honored.
My enemies have been raising the
cry that Wilcox is a failure and they
are and have been trying In every pos
sibe way to injure me. They do this
because they are jealous of me and
the most envious position that l hold
through you. They hate not only Will
cox but they also hate you, for to hate
Wilcox is to hate you. They sent dele
gates of their own to Congress to him
der. obstruct and in every possible
way to injure me, but the results have
been in every instance they came
home as failures, weeping before your
