The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1907-06-01

Now, fellow gubernatorial aspirants
while the collection is being taken up,
we will sing five verses of that beauti-
flu Lyman Il want To Be An Angel"
want to be a governor
And pat with Teddy stand;
Teddy Bear on my shoulder
Big stick in my hand.
I'd sing the sweetest music
That ever governor sang;
Hawaii'd shout my praises,
If 1 could head the gang.
1 want to be an angel
And with the angels stand,
A troupee on my forehead,
The people in my handl
/ want to sit as governor
And let the people stand,
And charge each man a dollar
To shake me by the hand.

much evidence of his adventures.
well known gentleman appeared down
town Thursday afternoon with a brand
new white suit, a model of neatness.
1 saw him the next morning and he
was a woeful spectacle. He had been
up all night. Take my tip and don't

of the Congressman; several hundred
cases of coughs and colds and a meet
