visit. as the representative of King
KaIakaua, to all the courts of Europe.
| (Applause.)
The introduction of Mr.. Iaukea by
the chairman was the signal for a gen
erous applause.
IAUKEA
The speaker referred to the issues OF
the day. The most important is the ad-
ministration of affairs in the Sherif's
office and he asked the audience if they
believed it right to keep in office man
who used it in serving his selfish po-
| litical ends He appealed to them as
| honest men to vote to retire Brown,
that the police department might be
made clean that resorts where boys
are made drunkards and young girls
| debauched, might be closed. Il do not
believe you want this state Of things
to continue-if you did you would be
/ supporting the machine"
Iaukea spoke of the determination Of
| the Democratic party to work for an
amended election law which will be
| factor in securing capable officials. He
swore to enforce the law and said that
while his opponents tell you ne is not
cut out for a policeman, that he has
been given an education above it, be
| promised to put down the brothels, and
he would not use the police department
to do politics. He said Governor Car
ter had appointed inspectors who would
give a fair count and the ballots Will
be so simple that a child can mark
them.
| Mr.. Iaukea was followed by Chas.
Rose and Frank Harvey, who spoke
in Hawaiian. Some of the other sepak-
ers were expected, but they were de-
tanned at kamoiliili.
DEMOCRATS AT MOILlILI.
| A Democratic meeting was held at
| Moiliili last evening near the church.
1t was not largely attended and was
| more of a neighbors' gathering than
| anything else. Among the speakers
were Frank Harvey, Charles Broad,
| w. W. Thayer, Mrs. Puahi, r. II,
Trent, Kiakiahi, Jesse Uluihi, John
Emmeluth, William Jarrett and Chas.
Kauwe, the latter officiating as chair
man.
Mr.. Thayer inquired whether the Re
publicans had really given the county
good government in the last two years.
He called attention to the array OF
crime in the last four months. He
asked whether it was good government
to have the police spending their time
doing politics for their chief. A. M.
| Brown, or did the people believe it was
better government to have the police
| seeking the thugs and burglars that
| now infest the city. Assaults on the
highways were becoming common.
He referred to Gears promise of Civ
ing jobs to thirty-five more people on
tie police force. There were plenty
of policemen now on the force to keep
the town clean, but the trouble is that
the men are set to do politics instead.
He said it was logical to believe that
this was a scheme to make the police
machine even stronger than before, to
| benefit the interests of Brown and as
sociates
Mr.. Thayer then referred to the
| liquor law and again spoke of the
original law having been drafted in his
own office by his partner, Mr.. Hem
enway, but had been so cut and slash
ed by the Republican Legislature that
when it really became a law it was
worthless. 1t was a good law as it
left Mr.. Hemenway's hands.
CHARLES BROAD.
Charles Broad referred to the state
ment of Republicans that he was a
traitor to their party because he had
left it and Joined the Democrats. 1t
leaving party, that had not been
straightforward in it's dealings in the
last convention, made him so, and he
assorted this to be the fact. He said
the Republican party at present was q
rotten institution and he could not re-
main in it. He was for good, clean
politics.

posing party's candidates, but to give
facts. He then brought up the ques-

reported TO be stranded on the main :
