Majority Already
Joseph Kalana called attention to
the fact that Republican majority
was already assured in the Senate, as
there were eight hold.over Senators
and one new one from Kauai who was
as good as elected, as there was no
opposition to him. For this reason the
rest of the Senators ought to be Re.
publican as well as the Represo nta-
tives, In order that the two houses of
The Legislature could work In har.
mony.
David Kalauokalani Jr. reminded
the people that the Republican party
had always fulfilled It's promises. and
said that IL would do so again II its
candidates were elected He pointed
to his past career as County Clerk and
asked for further support.
Governor Killed Leper Law
Charles Chillingworth showed the
effects of his campaigning by very
sore throat. Because there were some
haoles on the Republican ticket II
should not be downed. The voters
should vote the straight ticket; not
draw the color line. He would not
denounce the other political parties.
three were good men In both. but the
Republican party was the one which
supported the Hawaiians, and that was
why II was supported by such men as
John c. Lane. Nagaran Fernandez and
others.
Chillingworth went on to speak on
the needed amendment of the leper
suspect law. which the Republicans
would remedy. w. w. Harris. when a
Representative, had shed tears when
he saw the parting of Mrs. Makanui
at Kalihi camp from her children.
Harris had gone to the Governor and
asked him for a three days extension
of time In which to amend the law. but
the Governor refused. The whites
could not be blamed for killing the
leper bill OF the last Legislature.
Kahale. u stevedore, said that Brown
and Vida had been good to the Ha-
waiians on the waterfront; there.
fore they would stand by them In spite
OF all the, newspapers said against
them. The stevedore boss had called
the men together and asked them who
they intended to vote Tor. The men
had answered. Brown and Vida"
Outside OF that we will vote for any
one you say"

preacher of the Sunday school class"
He stated that Kuhio would carry
Hawaii. Kauai and Maui. What was
the use of electing stranger TO go
to Washington. a stranger who came
to the Islands like a proven, to feather
itself and then fly away? The Repub'
lican party had treated the people.
well and should be supported. Since
the overthrow until 1904 the people
had had no voice In the Government.
This had been given them by the Re.
publican party, who gave them the
County government. the success Of
which had been demonstrated during
the past eighteen months. He warn.
cd the voters to familiariZe themselves
with the ballots, as In the last election
500 Hawaiian votes had been thrown
out. He praised Chillingworth and
gave McCandless Il send-off for trying
his best to repeal the leper suspect
law. w. o. Smith, he had heard, and
KaleiOpu and Kanihonui had promised
to work for the accomplishment Of
that same object, II they were elected
W. O. Smith said that from Hawaii
to Kauai everyone was supporting Ku-
hio, for whom he predicted an over
