TOPICS OF THR DAY.

A report is current relative to Can
ddate Iaukea, that he has advised his
Waialua friends to vote for him alone
and then to do the same for the rest
on the Republican ticket. This is
!. hard to believe, yet where there Is
smoke, there must be fire smouldering.
Should 1t be found to be true, what do
the Home Rulers intend doing with
him?
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-10-29

Republican newspapers are taking
desperate chances in fighting labor
unions merely because Roosevelt is the
enemy of the unions and W. R. Hearst
their friend. "The worm may turn" Is
an expression as true as 1t Is old, and
God help the party upon which the lab
oring men of the United States turn!
In this matter the Republican press is
duplicating the example of the beast
that turns and madly bites it's own
flesh. Hearst, the great friend of the
common people, will, in all probability,
receive Hawaii's support in the next
Democratic convention despite the
boosts Senator German is receiving
from the local Republican newspapers.
We have to admit that our CORE
spondent, Ahuimaia, knew what he was
talking about when he treated our
readers on the subject of Woman Suf-
frage" over week ago. Arthur Brown
is really popular with the gentler sex,
and, in support of this, we personally
noticed an incident in this wise: Just
prior to going down the road Tuesday
evening, about half dozen or more
flower women pounced upon him and
decorated him heavily with leis. What
more is there to be said regarding
such a popularity and, of surety, he
had to dig. Further evidences were
noticed down at the Peninsula, and of
that we need never say further and
give him away.

Tax Assessor Pratt is said to be still
using his clerks as spies in the county
campaign They are sent out to polit-
ical meetings, public and private, and
required to report the happenings at
headquarters. Besides that, it is stated
on good authority these spies are made
to shadow persons believed to be in
opposition to Pratt and to report their
meanderings and doings. That is pol
itics up to the handle, eh? And 1t is
accomplished by over-working the en-
ployes of the bureau.

us a stranger!

To substantiate our remarks rela-
tive to the boycott and coercion now
being used by Republicans we have
another for Sam Johnson, the boss"
of the Fourth. Quite few of the
scavengers have rooms In a house be-
longing to Rep. Jonah Kumalae, and
the report is that they have been told
to remove from there or else get out
of work. And the same method is en-
ployed with the beer saloon in the
same building; they must not patro-
nize that, but must go to leased sa-
loon of two employees under him-E.
Devauschelle and Chas. Costa. These
Russianized methods cannot work
here long, for we do not believe in be-
ing exiled to another Siberia for differ
ences in political opinion. But Mr..
Johnson informed us the other day
that these same people come and tell
him these things without being there
to urged. Pela paha?

the whole story.

John Gandall dilated much upon the
name his native mother gave him,
that of Kamanu (the bird). But, pray,
what bird was meant? He said that
from the feathers Of birds many beau
tiful things have been made, but it is
also said that it's "a foul bird that
spoils its own nest But we think his
mother must have mistaken his fra
ternal surname to be that of a gander,
male bird of the goose species, and
named him "the bird" after such a
fowl. Who knows? He didn't tell his
native auditors how the name was de-
rived. And who cares! But poor old
man, John is being used by those here
to further their own ends, and, al
though old, he is yet sturdy, lusty and
strong. There's heaps Of good yet in
that old and gaunt body.

Representative John Gandall, of Ka-
uai, is doing excellent work for the
Home Rule party. His nightly
speeches range all the way from forty
five minutes to an hour and more in
length. Audiences are getting on to
the alleged Silver tongued" and when
he gets up to speak those in the front
row yawn and sink into slumber,
while those fortunate enough to be in
"skipable" positions take sneak and
a car at the next corner for home.
Gandall's all right.

The morning press is already out
with slate for the Federal judgeship,
and mentions Governor Dole, Henry E.
Highton and General A. s. Hartwell
together with the three dead horses,
we suppose) as desirable names. We
believe that, as far as possible, local
men should be called upon to fill local
Offices; but in the important Office of
Federal judge there should be a man
absolutely a stranger to Hawaiian pol
itics, and Independent of and apart
from its family compacts. 1t was that
very thing that brought Judge Estee
so close to the people at large Cover
nor Dole and Judge Hartwell in no
way fill the bill. No more objection
able men on the face of the earth could
possibly be suggested. Highton is a
renegade politician and has but recent
ly bowed the suppliant knee to the
golden calf of Central Union church.
Deliver us from all of these and give
us a stranger!

Former Judge Mahaulu, deputy as
SCISSOR for Waialua is strenuous Re-
publican worker. Was formerly a Re-
publican, but was kicked out when he
became a Home Ruler, losing his
judgeship in the bargain, and went
back again into his former fold be-
cause his princely friend had become
one. When it came to giving him a
position, in his present situation his
Republican friends did not want him,
but had it not been for the aid given
him by certain influential parties, he
would not be where he is today. We
fail to find out wherein he finds much
comfort in his place now, which is
likely to be short lived, yet he banks
his faith upon his chief to come out
successful, although it seems doubt
full in the end.
