blue wrapper contorted in the shade of
one of the nearby bagnios, the crowd
applauding each performer.
SMITH ALSO SCORNFUL.
W. O. Smith spoke at length in Ha-
waiian, extolling the work of Kuhio
and the merits of the party. He con
Guided in English, speaking as fol-
lows:
A certain party styling themselves
the Civic Federation has issued a
list of the candidates they will sup
port and whom they ask the people
to support. What is this Civic Fed
Grafton? I do not know any such a
party. 1t has not been elected. The
members of it have a right to their
own opinion. but by what authority
do they put themselves up in judgment
for others9
They have put my name on their
list for endorsement. ] do not thank
them for that endorsement. l do not
know them. / have been told by two
representative men belonging to the
organization that there had been no
meeting of the members and that there
had been no authority for the two
or three signing the list to issue it.
&c do not want to be mistook. l
am making no attack upon any one.
But l do mean that there is no place
for such party as the Civic Fedora
ton. In our government we must have
parties and recognized parties and the
members of these parties must stand by
their party The Home Rulers are
making a mistake because there is no
Home Rule party on the mainland. Will
cox found that out and Kuhio knew
that by joining the Republican party
he was doing what was best for his
country
CHILLINGWORTH IS MTRTHFUL.
Leleiwi, McCandless and Waterhouse
spoke, each making some reference to
the Civic Feds. They were followed
by Chillingworth, who urged the cleo
ton of the ticket without any con-
sideration of the color line in the vot-
ing He said that he wanted such
men as W. o. Smith and McCandless
with him in the Senate. AS for the
Civic Feds their endorsement couldn t
hurt anyone, nor could their disap-
prevail. If it amused them to make
up a list they were welcome to do so.
ANOTHER REASON SPRUNG.
A. S. Kaleiopu, who followed J.. L.
Paoo, advanced another reason why
Brown should be elected as Sheriff. 1t
was because he had refused to enforce
the Sunday law when High Sheriff and
had therefore been replaced by William
Henry by Governor Carter. This made
hit.
THE BEER APPEARED.
The speeches of Joe Kalana and
Mrs. Kikaha were marred somewhat
by a fight between a drunken woman
and a drunken man, in which a chair
was smashed. At this stage of the
game the sound of the beer maIlet was
also heard at work and there was a
surging of the crowd towards that
point of the compass. Then the re-
freshments were passed around among
the men and women on the benches
while as many as possible crowded up
on the steps of the Japanese house and
around the flowing kegs and demf-
johns. There were several disgraceful
scenes at the orgy which closed the
meeting, some of the men appearing to
have lost whatever 4anse of decency
they may have had.
DEMOCRATS IN KAKAAKo.
Two things of Importance cropped
up at the Democratic meeting on
Queen street in Kakaako last evening
" hlCH Caught the IditcY Oh the crowd
The first was r. H. Trent's illustration
Of the manner in which the Repub- |
lican's treat the Hawaiians before elec-i
ton and the manner in which they are
dumped" the day following. |
The other feature was the declaration |
of W. w. Thayer, candidate for County !
who said that the liquor law !
was drafted in his office. as stated by /
4 In IL nd hi
partner, Mr.. Hemenway That law, as
it left their office. was a model law
and would have been a credit to the
Territory, but after it left the Repub-
lican Legislature and was enacted, it
bore no sCnblance to the fabric created
by Mr.. Hemenway and has become the /
shame of the Territory.
TRENT'S wHEELBARROW.
Mr.. Trent, candidate for Treasurer of
the County, in opening said that the
Democratic Treasurer (himselD had
paid out 100 cents on a dollar to all
wage earners of the county almost from
the time he took office, while the Ter
ritorial Treasurer discounted warrants
for months afterward. |
At this moment Trent espied a wheel
barrow nearby and he seized it to IL
ustrate the methods of the Republican
party.
Before election the Republicans give
the Hawaiians rides everywhere salu
ne. They give you plenty of beer ana
booze C"Sure," said voice-) They
give you anything you want. NOW
his is the way they treat you.
Suiting the word to action. Mr.. Trent
oaded a couple of Hawaiian boys INTO
he barrow and trotted around With
hem before the applauding audience
Now this is the way they IL DO Oh
November 8. If they're elected TINS Is
what they'll do on November a. Ana
amid laughter, the two boys
we're turnbled out of the barrow.
Mr.. Trent said there were some sooo
naa1, on, the Ran,lhlicar ticket. but they
