last night, meetings being held at the
corner of Wyllie and Nuuanu street and

patches of the day the full account of
the Mohonk conference in which Ger
ham D. Gilman. w. N. Armstrong and
other former residents of Hawaii adj
vocated the alienation of the Hawaiian
and asserted his incompetency for the
suffrage. Mr.. Waller deprecated such
treatment and asked if such men as NJ
P. Robinson, Palmer P. Woods, Frank
Harvey, Judge Kepoikai and other in
telligent men of the Hawaiian race were
to be placed in such a category.
He further said that for the conduct
of a comparative few Hawaiians, all
were not to be condemned. Mr.. Waller
repeated this speech at the Kalihi meet7
ing and the Hawaiians received it with
deep attention AT the Nuuanu meeting
the other speakers were Madeiros, Jar
ret. Nauha and Trent, candidates for
Representatives from the Fifth District.

even good-by Pierce made inquiries
and learned that he had gone to Homo

now that he has returned Pierce de-
termined to have him arrested. De-
