| The Democrat-Home Rule parties
have all returned from West Maui and
are around Waikiki today renewing
old acquaintance. Judge J. w. Kalua
spoke at Waiehu last evening. He has
been around East Maui following after
the heels of both the Republicans and
Fusionists hoping thereby to undo the
good the Republicans have wrought
and plant in its stead seeds of dis.
cord.
r. j. X. Nawahine. one Of Judge Ka.
lua's opponents, spoke at Waiehu last
evening. He told the Hawaiians pres.
ent that under the Territorial form Of
Government the Republican party could
not be overthrow. He himself Is a
member Of the executive committee
Of the Republican County Committee,
aud did not foresee the waning power
Of the Republicans until after the de.
feat of Kalua at the Convention.
Nawahine told his dupes that since
the Territorial form of government is
no more in Hawaii as the County Gov.

Territorial form Of Government, he was
at liberty to raise dissensions among
the Republican party hoping thereby
to be ousted ANONYMOUSLY out Of the
party for the stand he has taken, and
that he would rather take pride II
such steps were taken towards him.

and Molokai. Kalua talked quite q

elected Sheriff Of this County. He
talked very plain to those present and

years. He could not see why Hon. II
