roads.
KINNEY HITS G. o. P.
W. A. Kinney added largely to the
speech of Mr.. McCIanahan, explaining
! many points of it in Hawaiian.
He also spoke of the fact that the
Democrats have prevented numbered
! ballots from being used at the coming
election. Their protest at such ballots
which were used in the last election
was sustained. He spoke Of the contest
of Kanealif on Kauai, who after being
elected a Supervisor. was not permitted
to be seated by legal action brought
against him by the Republicans and the
Government. He fought his way
through the courts and was seated.
This was done through the action of
the Democrats taking up Kanealii's
cause. He said the Democrats were
also in favor of a simpler election law
and proposed to change the election
law if elected to office.
You see what the Republicans have
done in the past" said Mr.. Kinney.
They come before you with great
promises They have gone into office
and then throw off their promises just
as they do their rain coats when they
reach home after storm.
FERN AND THE MACHINE.
Joe Fern spoke in Hawaiian, English
and Portuguese and made quite a hit
in the latter language. In English he
said: If you don't want to have a
good government in this city and ISL
and then vote for the Republican par
ty. If you do you will have the
-,
Democratic ticket from top to bottom
VOTES AND BOOZE.
NJ. A. Silva the Portuguese orator,
spoke in English. He referred to the
Republican meeting on Punch bowl,
when their luau was given. "On that
OCCASION he said. we find that one
of the best men they thought they had
was sitting alongside Vida That was
the same Mr.. Smith who says he does
not know that booze is being served at
meetings. At that luau they had gal
Ions and gallons of booze.
We are not coming before you to
make drunkards of you as the Repub-
licans are. The Republican party
knows that you will not vote the
straight Republican ticket unless the
people have lost their senses and that
they will through their booze. You
will not sell your votes for a lousy
glass of beer
DEMOCRATS ON LILIHA. !
The Democrats held a large and sue
cessful meeting last night under the
big ohai tree a the corner of School,
and Liliha streets.

ing their appreciation of points made
by the various speakers by loud and
frequent applause
The presence of quintet club added
to the pleasure of the occasion.

speakers.
KOLOA STARTS. !
s. X. Koloa opened. He was of the
opinion that Mechanism could do
more at Washington for the Hawaiian
people than Kuhio. He had been
through the other islands with Me-
Clanahan, who had had to make his
,wn fight, the fusion candidates stand
ing aloof. His first meetings were so
successful that thereafter the other
candidates f1Ocked with McCIanahan,
having seen their mistake. The fact
that the Republicans had called the
natives jackasses and monkeys show
ed their real feeling toward them
TRENT ON BEER.
Trent said that the Democratic party
mad always favored the Hawaiian peo-
pie. The Republicans accused McClan-
ahan of being a malihini When he got
TO Washington he would be no mali
aini. He counseled his listeners to cut
he malihini question out and vote for
good men irrespective of whether they
we're haoles, natives, malihinis or ka-
naainaS
The Republicans had put up some
good men and a whole lot of bad men
and had told the voters to take the
mixture straight. II was a pretty bad
lose
The Democrats had a good ticket,
consisting of good haoles and good ma
lives. The Republicans We're trying to
blind voters with beer in order to have
them vote the straight Republican
ticket. They had not given away any
Deer during the last two years until
'ecently and after election there would
De no more free booze.
The speaker urged those present, if
hey got good and drunk on Repub-
lean beer. to be sure to sober up in
inc to vote the straight Democratic
;cket.

ion law which is to be. He SAID that
