whether the Civic Federation endorsed
him or not, but he intended working
for the straight Republican ticket, and
asked general support for it.
He wanted to know why the Civic
Feds cid not put up a ticket of their
own, instead of selecting from the
various parties. 1t only led the Ha-
wajians astray-
HE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND.
Leleiwi said he couldn't understand
the Civic Fed methods. He thought
the Civic Federation taught one to
stand by his party, but instead it ad-
vocated splitting up the tickets. He
said the issues reminded him of the
old Hawaiian lady who sent her boys
out to gather a certain kind of bread
fruit. She told them it was the kind
with a wax clinging to the outer skin.
They finally brought back what she
wanted and the people were saved
from starvation. The Republican party
was like this breadfruit. for it saved
the people.
BlCh NELI'S 100 CENTS.
Mr.. BicknelI, candidate for County
Auditor said that Democratic County
Treasurer Trent was not entitled to
the glory of having instituted the pay
ment of 100 cents on a dollar on all
payments made by the county. The
Supervisors, he said. ordered payments
and he as Auditor drew up the war
rants, which was authority to the
Treasurer TO pay 100 cents on a dollar.
Bicknen said he had been endorsed by
the Civic Feds, He claimed that he
had not sought such endorsement.
SMITH AND SCHOOLS.
w. O. Smith gave a calm, heart-to-
heart talk on the methods and for
nation of governments. He said that
county government gave opportunity
to the people to elect their own Off
GERS As to Delegate Kuhio, Mr.. Smith
said that, with his own eyes, he had
seen at Washington just what Kuhio
had accomplished for the Territory and
it was right to send him back again.
The Republican party advocated an in
crease in the number of schools, where
all the future voters of the Territory
could be educated. In order that these
measures could be carried out it was
necessary to elect Republicans to
office.
REPUBLICANS AT PAUOA.
The crowd at Pauoa last night was
not so large as has been the ease at
the average Republican meetings. w.
o. Smith was the first speaker. He
he n
party, saying: II want to call your
to the three parties. The
Home Rule party can accomplish moth
ing. We belong to America, that great
country to which people come from all
over the world. There the Home Rule
party is unknown, but the Republican
party is supreme" He repeated his ref
erences to slavery and the abolishing
of it by the Republican party. His
speech was a repetition of the one
made during the past week.

Legislature Mr.. Hughes made u
straight plea for the support of the
ticket, saying the voters would thus
and their children He reminded his
audience that every promise made by
the Republican party two years ago
had been fulfilled to the letter and
those that are made now would be
kept as well. He quoted Judge Dole
and added that he did not want to
drink Americanism from a better
source" He touched the Democratic
party, criticising it for failure to dis
cusS national politics and combining
themselves to local affairs only and
damning the machine. He called upon
the voters to cast a ballot for the
Republican candidates because it is the
party of progress, the party of the full
dinner pail.

Senator McCandless addressed the
audience in Hawaiian, expressing the
same sentiments that have marked his
speeches during the campaign. He
touched the Federation but slightly.
1.-TWO demijohns filed with Pauoa
water were on the ground in front OF
the stand. One of the audience drank
from them and to show his disgust
poured a quantity over his head.)
McCandIess went after Moore for
failure TO pay his poll tax. He hoped
the Democrats would not get in on ac-
count OF the many changes that would
occur. He roasted Moore again in an

said the only reason Moore did not
hire japanese was because he was not
i'm business where he could hire any
body. Link made a strong appeal for
votes and the orchestra sang Every
