TWO RALLIES
IN THE CITY
SUBURBS
Democrats Heard in
Waikiki and
Kalihj.

An audience composed largely of
ladies. young and old, was in Joe Alas
yard at Waikiki last night to hear the
Democratic speIlbinders. Mr.. Moore
was the lone haole Democrat and after
the president of the precinct club, Da-
vid Kauwe, landed a few body blows
on the weak places in the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Moore turned his thoughts to
the labor question, telling the audience
that there are men with trades work
ing as laborers in the road department
with pick and shovel simply because
there is no opening for them as car
penters and painters, the Asiatics and
contractors, having been given prece-
dence over the capable Hawaiian me-
chanics.
There is man." said the speaker,
posing as a friend of labor. asking
your votes to send him to the Senate,
and yet when it was within his power
to give citizen labor employment in the
construction of building for which his
money paid turned his back upon you
and took the bread out OF your mouths
and placed it in those of the Japa-
nese. You can not misunderstood me.
You know that l refer to Link Nc
Candless the Republican candidate for
Senator What he will do for himself
privately he will try to do for others; If
he does not care enough for you to give
you employment, / do not see how you
can care enough for him to give him
your votes"
FERN AND THE WIVES.
Joe Fern spoke in Hawaiian and af-
forwards in English. He said: II am
here before you to express my opinion
of the three parties, but l can cut
it to one and tell you that here is
the Democratic party with the best
men, And he named all of the candi-
dates. They are the best of the young
Hawaiians. the best that have been
on any ticket since 1900. It is for you
to say who you believe should hold
the offices. You are to say who you
want by the ballot you cast I hope
You will vote the Democratic ticket
from top to bottom. Now, you ladies.
L want you to talk to your husbands
on the way home and say to them, My
dear, you must vote for the Democrats,
and don't forget J. J. Fern and the
rest of them If you will do that you
will have good government for the next
two years"
MOSES AGAIN
Moses Palau called attention to the
fact that he had been regularly nomi-
mated last September and had a per-
feet right to ask them for their votes.
Then Moses lapsed into his long suit.
leprosy, and made unfriendly illusions
to what he termed the Board of Death.
and asked What in h they were
here for, anyhow" He dwelt princi-
pally upon the failure of the govern
ment to cure leprosy and blamed it for
sending to the Settlement Hawaiians
with bent fingers and crooked mouths,
saying if that course is to be followed
the Hawaiians would soon be no more.
THE LABORING MAN.
Tom Gandall, a mechanic and friend
of the workingman, spoke on the labor /
question and said if he was fortunate |,
enough to be elected he would do his |
best to have the wages of employees
of the road and police departments /
brought up to a living rate.
MR.. ROSE TALKS.
Charlie Rose addressed the audience |
in Hawaiian and was well received. /
Charlie is getting accustomed to the |
duty of spellbinder and shows great !
Improvement. He called upon the men /
to vote the Democratic ticket because |
it would give the young men a chance
to show what they could do. He did
not approve of the plan of giving young /
HawaiianS an education and then put
ting them on the docks to shovel coal !
Encourage us by your votes,'' he said,
and you will see good results
Chairman Kauwe introduced Joe XII
akahi as a wire talker'' and he show
ed the crowd what a man with good,
clear voice can do. His speech was a
roast of the police department for al
owing gambling to be conducted open
ly and for permitting the existence of
place like Joe Clark's, where young
girls are debauched and young men
ruined He retired with applause.
ASHFORD ON THE STUMP.
c. w. Ashford was then introduced. |
lie said he had always spoken on the
SIDE of the poor man and would do so
now He asked the people to compare
the two tickets as to the candidates
for county offices. He drew attention !
to the color line drawn by the Repub-
llcans in their nominations only one
Hawaiian being named. while on the
Democratic ticket there are but two
white men, and they have covered
themselves with glory.
OF the four Supervisors on the Re-
publican ticket, there are three haoles: |
the Democrats named but one, the
other three being Hawaiians. He would |
say nothing against the Republican
candidates further than that politically
and officially they have been weighed
