REPUBLICANS
HOLD A RALLY
HISTORIC CORNER OF BETHEL
AND HOTEL STREETS THE
SCENE OF A GATHERING.

The Bethel and Hotel street corner
was the scene of an enthusiastic gath
ering Of Republicans on Saturday even
ing when at 7:.o the NEE ting was call
ed to order by John G.. Lane. He made
a brief speech calling on all loyal Re
publicans to vote the straight ticket
and then introduced Samuel f. Chilling
worth. Chiilingworth took up the SUBJ
ject Of the candidacy Of Aylett, de-
Tending him from the many attacks
that had made Oh him. Aylett he said
may have erred at one time but when
he had thoroughly understood the re-
suits to be achieved he had been on the
side Of good legislation. The special
session had shown what the legislature
could do when put to the test. Quinn,
the speaker looked on as a representa-
tive working man thoroughly worthy
Of support,
The new Deputy High Sheriff, W. C..
Rawlins was next introduced. He
took the platform he said to thank
those who voted for him last year for
County Attorney. He spoke of some
of some Of the benefits to be derived
from Republican rule. He cited the
fact that settlers on government lands
in out of the way districts, may con-
truct roads for themselves without
waiting for the government, and re-
ceive a deduction in the price of the
land equal to the cost to them of
building the road He ended up by
urging that a straight Republican
ticket be elected as that would insure
ic1 do
while the Legislature is in session and
so it behooves us TO get one that will
do the best work in the shortest time.
Ed Towse made a most effective
speech. The Republican party had
built up the system of protection and
the navy-the two great things that
Gre of value to us here in Hawaii He
then spoke of Kuhio Cupid has done
more in the two years he has been in
Washington than has any new member
OF Congress in an equal length Of time.
He should be given an opportunity to
go on with the good work In regard
to Carter, Towse was not there to de-
fend him Carter needs no defense
Speaking of the Democrats he said that
they simply propose to Investigate"
which only means costly waste of time
and even more costly stenographers.
Harry S. SWinton and Bernard Kele-
{kolio spoke both English and Hawaiian
and were well received.
Tom Quinn made rafting address.
Andrew Jackson he said was the great
est American president and Roosevelt
was following closely in Jackson's
footsteps. They both have the quail
ties of promptness and decision in a re-
marka BILE degree. He went on to show
how all the machine politicians advised
the president not to expose the frauds
in the Postoffice with a Presidential
election drawing near. Roosevelt per-
sisted, however, and is the stronger for
it. Governor Carter is nobly follow
ing Roosevelt's example and is only
doing the right thing. Would have
stuffed himself If he had waited UNI
til after the election. There should not
be a Democrat in the islands. Our
whole prosperity is wrapped up in the
the tariff system and no one should be
such a fool as to vote for party whose
policy is inimical to our interests.
Several Hawaiian speakers followed
using the Hawaiian language and the
meeting then broke up with rhe usau
cheers.
