MORE SPEAKING.
The Portuguese band, which greet
ed the Governor on his arrival at Ma
wiliwfli at 2:S0 a. m, was again on
hand under the leadership of Director
Rapose; while music for the dancing
was furnished by Sheriff Coney's or
chestra After shaking hands with all
the people speeches followed:
Gov. Carter outlined his plan for dis
tribution of expenses under a new sys-.
tern of accounting, saying that two
hfths should go to the Territory
sIn this way" said the Governor. I'VE
could settle the dispute as to whether
Oahu gets it all. had many other
things in mind but I won't dwell on
them. 1 only want to say few more
words to the leaders in Lihue, and who
have the responsibility because OF that
fact, a dozen or more men here WELD an
influence far greater than they perhaps
realize. These men are perhaps too
prone to leave to others what they
should do themselves. It is not enough
to pay for things to be done, but it is,
the duty of these men to turn out at
meetings. The price of good govern
ment the world over is constant vigi-
lance. Unless the lower influences are
counteractetI by good influences corrup-
ton is sure to creep into Hawaii. You
are publie-spirited now I know but If
we are to keep up the standard set by
our fathers there is more that you
should and must do"
ATKINsoN's TALK.
Secretary Atkinson said II am glad
to get back to Lihue after our trip
around the island-it seems like home.
There is one thing that pleases me here
tonight and which I shall report to
Washington in my next report-that is
to see so many men and women with
children. There is no race suicide in
you have to say but we ourselves have
to talk too much. Now the best way
is to have public meetings arr 4or each
man to come and speak out his mind.
In Honolulu when an important aues-
ton comes up we have a public meet
ing in the Executive building ard when
it is over we usually are decided and
pretty strongly one way or the other. F"
