The police, he said. had nominated
the Republican candidates. aided and
abetted by Sam Johnson's road gang.
Even today the police We're negIecting
their duty to try and get people to
attend the Republican meetings. On
account of this state of affairs many
good and reputable Republicans had
declined to take part III the present
campaign.
Brown had said at Iwilei that if Tau
kea was elected he would do his duty
This was what he would take the oath
to do and the least he could do as a
man was TO respect his oath.
Brown had put up $4,000 bond to
do his duty. yet, despite this, the town
today is overwhelmed by wave OF
immortality and drunkenness The
County Attorney, if he did his duty
would bring this disgraceful state of
affairs to the eye of the law.
If elected he would close the bawdy
saloons and the brothels. He asked for
support for his deputy so that both
might work hand in hand for the well
fare of the town.
He pleaded for support for the can
didates for Supervisors and County At
tOTney. Ii the Republicans elected
their Attorney and he asked him for an
opinion. it would be easy for the Coun-
ty Attorney to procrastinate and equiv
0cate. to the defeat of the ends of jus
tice.
The speaker was personally friendly
with Brown. but the wide-open state
of the town indicated something radi-
cally wrong in the state of Denmark.
Whether the onus of wrong-doing lay
with Brown or someone else, he pre-
ferred not to say. Great cheering)
GANDALL AND CONTRACTS.
Tom Gandall promised that if elected
he would do all he could to see that
all Government jobs We're let out by
contract to the lowest bidder. The
only job he remembered the Republic
cans to have put up for bids was the
Aala Park bandstand.
STALWART SWINTON.
H. Swinton said that he was a very
old Democrat and as much Democrat
today as ever he was. He urged the
support of Iaukea and all the other
good Democrats on the ticket.
Discussing the dement's of Sam John
sons machine, the speaker asked what
had become Of Sans automobile.
"Nalowale shouted the ladies pres
ens, in chorus
You bet it's lost" exclaimed Swinton,
and the county has lost several hun
dred dollars over the DEAL
The Cuban issue deserved close at
tention. McClanahan as opposed to
Cuban annexation deserved the support

crowd.)
That McCianahan is a capable man, |
said Swinton, is shown by the fact that
he is attorney for Charley Motley and
the Kapiolani Estate.
M'CLANAHAN'S WORDS.
McClanahan's arrival was the signal
for remarkable demonstration of en-
thusiasm.
He dealt at length with the Cuban
issue. saying that the Republican party
would be the ones who brought about
he annexation of Cuba, if it was ever
brought about.
Such annexation would mean that
tuba would produce all the sugar used
N the States, at prices which would
,ut every mill in Hawaii out of COM |
mission and work untold hardships on
LII classes of the community.

l0d so were the Republican candidates. |
They, unfortunately, however, belonged |

with all the disaster it forebode to |
Hawaii.
The Democratic party was opposed |

After McClanahan had been speaking |
