CORRUPTION FUND
NOW WIDE OPEN

Bulletin, Dem. side: The sack of the
saloon and the gambling joints has
been opened with vengeance the past
forty-eight hours. From score of
different sources word comes in that
the money back of a wide-open town
is loose and doing its work. If there
has been one there have been a dozen
prominent Hawaiian Democrats that
have come in to Democratic headquar-
ters in the past forty-eight hours and
stated that Democrats are being ap.
preached TO act as lunas for Brown and
Vida. Some have accepted the money;
others unquestionably have accepted
the money and fallen into line to do
the bidding of Brown and Vida. Men
have been paid as high as $40 nominal
~ to be lunas. virtually for their vote.
Inc reader may say it is incredible
that $40 should be offered for single
vote: such persons should sit down and
attempt to figure out what saloons and
the gambling joints can afford to pay
for immunity in fleeing the public
without restraint OF law or police su,
pervision for the next two years. The
saloons and gambling joints alone can
afford to pay $4,000 to keep Brown in
and then make a handsome profit as
against the profits that can be made if
they are to keep within the law the
next two years. You citizens of Homo
lulu are up against it! This does not
mean that we give up hope 1t does
mean that each man who stands for
Law and order ~ list put his shoulder
to tire wheel actively and energetically
1t means further that the few like "
O. Smith, who are lending themselves
to untold mischief. should receive ab-
solutely no comfort or support in their
inane talk for a straight ticket.
