II Motley were sent to Congress the
Congressman would send here to as
certain Notley's record while he was
Collector of Customs at Hilo. He re-
membered when Motley, Sr., left his
seat In the Legislature In despair when
he heard the news concerning his son.
Mr.. Desha told another story of
| captain OF a steamer on the great lakes
I'm the United States. The steamer
had no compass and the captain told
| Mr.. Desha that he steered by the direc-
ton of the smoke. First. Iaukea was
given every honor by King Kalakaua
and Queen Liliuokalani. He was sent
TO England representing the monarchy
and then attended the coronation of the
Car, but when Queen Liliuokalani was
dethroned, Iaukea was among the very
first to sign the roll of the party which
! 4 1,
Government and Republic were organ
tied he did the same thing-followed
the way the smoke blew. He was an
annexationist Then he Joined the Re-
| publican party. In all cases he steer
ed his craft as the smoke blew. Wheh
the Territory was organized and the
Republican party was In authority
Iaukea steered his craft into the Re-
n,blican haven. The day they franz
ed their bylaws he jumped to the
Home Rulers. He claimed he was fore
ed out of the Republican party by the
white men. Lastly, he steered his
craft, without compass, and only by
the smoke on the political horlZoh "
the Democrats. Uaughter)
Where were Motley and Iaukea dur
ing the great fire of 1900. Kuhio gave

In conclusion Mr.. Desha praised
Prince Kuhio and the Republican
ticket. The latter was like fish COOK

bottom and sides and all through.
DoUTHITT TALKS.
Attorney f. A. Douthtt made a good
speech dealing with national and local
issues. He spoke in praise of Roose-
yelt's achievements and asked what
| would happen to the Hawaiian islands
If the Democrats won and applied their
policy of free trade. The local sugar
industry would be dealt a terrible blow
If Iaukea We're sent to Congress he
would be like scared cat in strange
garnet. He would be a stranger in
strange land. The voters should re-
turn Kuhio to Congress as he is In
touch with Congressman.
The speaker said he had yet to hear
from a Democrat that Carter's ad-
ministration has been anything but abb
solutely upright and honest. Cap
plause).
He is putting men in office to run
the government economically, efficient
ly and honestly. That is the kind OF
man the voters want and the kind OF
men that should be sent to the Legis-
lature to support and aid the Cover
nor.
= LEWIS ON CARTER.
A. Lewis, Jr., was the last speaker
After dealing with the two parties or
the mainland and the achievements OF
the Republican party, he spoke OF
local issues.
The Democratic platform was full OF
abuse of the Executive in power. II
was like a corporation which says to
people to get in on the ground floor
on promises. When the floor gives way
the victim finds himself in the cellar.
The Democrats condemn Carter for
trying to run the government econo-
mically and because he goes around
the islands to learn the peoples needs
| he is abused. He is condemned for
anything he does

cratic party (Kinney)," he continued
"a hawk leading under his protecting
wing the meadow lark Uaukea) to the
police court to put in prison the Home
Rule candidate In his attempted flight
to Washington"
Mr.. Lewis asked for full support OF
