ct, the undersigned, do hereby pro-
claim before my countrymen from the
! rising sum- Kumukahi, to the set
| ting sum- Lehua, / was a true Demo-
f! crat in the days gone by, but today
/, while writing this letter of explana-
ton of secrets which 1 found in the
Democratic party. and for the welfare
of my people and without consdera-
ton of how much money the Demo-
Gratis have given to me, I've gone back
and am now standing with the Home
Rule party, and have left the Demo-
cratic, the party which has been a
traitor to my people, and for the fol-
lowing reasons which I found in the
Democratic party:
&c. P. Iaukea, is the real Repub-
lican cadidate, and not Kalanianaole.
''2-The haoles, Democrats as well as
Republicans, in Hawaii have met to-
gether and agreed to disfranchise the
natives Hawaiians.
/ "3-The business men are helping the
Democratic party with money.
Now, call you my beloved country
men, TO stand and leave the Democratic
go back to the Home Rule party. the
only party in which We could exist and
could hold our rights to vote without
interference.
Therefore, We the generations of
t. the Mahi,' and 'Palena.' and all
'Pala-lauhala' (ol6 people), come back
all of US in one party that would
'ko-ko' (strengthen) US in one net for
victory.
Long live Delegate Kahiliaulanf,
the man that would save my people to
everlasting heaven.
II am yours truly,
STEPHEN UMAUMA.''

MAUNAELEELEs STATEMENT.
The Democratic party held mass
meeting at Waihee schoolhouse, Maui,
on the evening of the 21st, and from
the speakers came false impressions
calling Delegate Charles Kahiliaulani
Motley worthless, ignorant, and mis-
chievous, when he was Custom House
Collector in Hilo.
Therefore. before you, my fellow
citizens of ma wal cha who had at
tended that meeting of these treach-
erous Democrats, I stand and deny all
false Impressions that were said of
Kahiliaulani our Delegate. These
questions should be asked by all read
ers:
WAS Kahiliaulani arrested by a
policeman or by other government or
ficials on charge or charges made, and
was he tried and found guilty by a
Judge or Judges?
2-Where, when, what results, what
was it and who was it?
On these questions, I deny all =
Kahiliaulanis hands and heart
have not done such filthy thing as Tau
kea and Kivini Oesha) is charging
him before the public =
We have come now, readers, where
We should put questions On this sub
Ject There was a large quantity of
opium tins in the Custom House. Ho-
nolulu valued about $45, 000 These
We're lost, and brick stones We're placed
instead; Iaukea was the Custom House
Collector then. The questions are:
Where was the opium? Was there a
marvellous change in these stones?
Do consider the answers to these ques-
tions.''
