jEncture warming Mr. Hustace To BE-
more mild in his language

Chairman Lucas arose and sah5. 81

track He is here merely to vent his
spleen and spite,
LUCAS CHIPS IN
George w. Smith then took the chaTE
and Lucas went upon the floor and caz-
tinued: Mr.. Hustace has seen fit t@
vent his spleen because he is sore On
account of being defeated and now he
comes in and blames his precinct for als
defeat. Mr.. Hustace was more shzn
confident when he went into the <0z-
yention in the race for Supervisor. Rze

his undoing. That had nothing waxaa-
ever to do with it,

Mr.. Lucas-sTh,s administration has
nothing TO do with it,
GEO. w. SMITH HEARD
George w. Smith then took the HcAr
and spoke. in part. as follows:
| II will say that I was an ardent sup
porter of Mr., Brown at the convention.
I was disappointed, but not SORE, mind
you, when he was defeated. The diss-
appointment lasted few days buf Z
thought it over and am not .now For
Mr.. Brown.
Il agree with Mr.. Andrews when he
said that only one-fifth of the delegates
/ TO the convention We're Office hoidRxz-
Mr.. Brown was defeated in open csss--
vention, but Mr.. Brown is not facisr
just now.
"a squib appeared in one of the news
papers lately. Do your own thinkingz'
There is more meat in that than yo1
/, think. We, who are engaged IN basz&-
ness every day, how many OF us are
guided by the newspapers7 But donx
be guided altogether by the newspa pexx.

IL you do not it viii surely come bach
at you at some future time with a ven
geance. The day viii come when y0az
have men you really and earnestly want
in the legislature ard the Hawaiians
will say to you that they know whak
scratching is. The foreigner has set
an example in everything, both iR Vfr-
tue and in vice. The issue here is nat
Governor Carter.
Il find in my twenty-five years resi-
dence here that our life makes our pref
udices loom up greatly. On the main
land little matters which are ne<
thought OF are always made the most
of here. Here we seem to always ,A&wa
a knife out for some one. I don't see
where Messrs. Aylett and Long we're
corrupt in the Legislature.
IF the officers OF this Territory verE
elected I certainly should object to an
ofiee-holder taking part in politics. hHG
under the circumstances with the e1sa-
GERS appointed 1 certainly can see Eun
harm in Mr.. Andrews or any one e1se
taking part. I certainly should ike IL

the founders of the American UnarM
party here years ago and we have aH-

think the position taken by Mr.. Hustagaa
is not a good one
Mr. Hustace then passed in the fak-
lowing resolution which was not Sec
onded and died on the table
Be 1t Resolved, that the Eighth Pre-
cinct Republican Club Of the Fourth
District. demand that the bylaws az
the Republican party of the Tertiary
of Hawaii, be amended by inserting
the clause that Government officials araZ
Government employees cannot bocGu1S
members of the Territorial or Dfstrfce
committees, and that a copy of fhE
resolution be sent TO the Central Corr
mittee of the Republican party, at
once, for their consideration and as
ton.
BEAL BREAKS IN -
Mr.. Beal OF the Hawaiian Trust a
Investment Company then read his adj
dress as follows:
That the Republican party is facing
a very serious condition of affairs In
apparent. A large proportion OF the
white Republican voters propose &C.
scratch the ticket and when a precinct
like the eighth, which is composer
largely of the most intelligent class of
NERVOUSNESS men-take a stand Hkn
this it certainly indicates that some
hing is radically wrong
I have talked with a great many OF
our citizens in this precinct about this
matter and I find that issue upo@
which the proposal to scratch rests in
simply this-and it would make D voaE
winning plank in any platform.
We are unaIterabIy opposed To the
political activity of all guE-
rnment officials and employees
