MORE LIBEL SUITS

two new libel suits against rne Hawai-.

The declaration in each of these suits
is identical with that in the suit begun
on Monday, except as to the publica-

One of the suits complains of the
article concerning Catheart which ap-
peared in the Sunday Advertiser, and
the other complains of the article con-
corning him which appeared in the Ad-
vertiser of Monday. In each case the
damages alleged are $4,000.

Holt Is the Tail.

Chris Holt, candidate for deputy
Under Wise as Sheriff, said that if the
people voted for John Wise they should
for him also, because he was the tail
end of that part of the ticket. When
the people wanted an animal, using
figure of speech, Holt said that the
most important part of an animal was
the tail, to brush away the flies.

perity which we enjoy in the Hawaiian
Islands is due to the Republican ad-
ministration of affairs. He referred to
the protective tariff on sugar which
was bulwark to our main industry.
The islands received a benefit of over
$50 a ton for our sugar, and for the
1907 crop of about 100000 tons there
was almost a net profit of SO a ton.
"Our Democratic friends tell you
that Bryan will be elected said Mr..
Single. ''He will not. Taft will be
elected. [ have recently seen letters
from San Francisco parties of much
prominence in which they say that the
betting is now to l in favor of Taft.
Locally, the Republican party is
proud of its nominees on the ticket for
representatives, and particularly so for
the Fourth District, for, of course, L

spoke favorably of each candidate and
then said: GAS for myself, the reason

what L can. You viii make no mistake

Castro and Garfield.

A. D. Castro, also lower house can
didate, said he was up as a candidate
not only to represent the interests of
the Portuguese but the entire commu-
nifty. He felt that a member of the
Legislature cannot represent just par
ticular element of the community but
must represent the interests of the PEG.
pie at large.
GAS a member of the last Legisla-
ture I feel that ] am justified in com
ing before the people for their support
for reelection. I believe my work and
that of my colleagues was above board
and done in a way to reflect credit
on the Republican party. The record
of the last Legislature is one that has
entitled it to recognition on the main.
land, for it was not long ago that Pres
ident Roosevelt sent a personal mes
senger to Hawaii and he delivered a
message to the people that if the af-
fairs of this country were properly ad-
ministered in the future, the Islands
would be entitled to be enrolled as d
State.
"When a man like Roosevelt sends
such a message to the people of Hawaii
through such a brilliant young Amer
lean representative, the Hawaiian peo
pie should certainly recognize the fact
that the work performed by the mem
bers of the last Legislature is some
thing being recognized abroad as work
based on best principles of govern
ment.
"When the next Legislature meets,
some important measures are to come
up. The matter of taxation, which
will involve the report of the Tax
Commission appointed by the Governor
to consider the present taxation laws,
will be important, and if the next Leg
islature is not Republican | fear that
the work that is costing great deal
of money will go to waste

Jarrett Soft-Hearted.

John Wise said that as far as Jar.
rett. the Democratic nominee for Sher'
iff, was concerned, he was too soft
hearted for the job. Wise said he was
not of that caliber, and that if elected
Sheriff he would give a strong enforce.
ment of the laws.
Edgar Henriques, candidate for the
Senate, dwet largely upon planks in
the platform, dealing especially with
the one referring to a public admin
istrator He pointed out the advan-
tage of such an official and the benefit
the people would derive from his exer-
else of administration of estates. It
would he his purpose, he said if elect
ed to the Senate, to present such a
bill for consideration.
Mr. Kamanoulu. candidate for the
House asked for vote for the whole
ticket. He said he would take pride
in giving a good example of himself,
if elected to the House, and he felt
he could carry out the will of the
people.
Jim Quinn. candidate for Supervis-
or, the "Good Roads Candidate, -
spoke on his favorite theme, good
roads. He spoke iocularly at times,
and carried the audience with him. His
reference to macadamized roads and
the manner Of its Interpretation, made
Quinn look like a favorite.

Democrats a Failure.

Joe Cohen compared the history of
the two great parties ON the mainland.
The Republican party had made more
for the prosperity of the country at
large than the other party dreamed of.
Legislation by the Republicans was, al
ways wise. Whenever the Democrats
came into power they made failure
of government The only good issues
they ever took up were those cast aside
on the dust heap by the Republicans.
Locally, the Democratic ticket was
composed in such manner as to indi-
cate that it could not carry out the
promises it has made IN its platform.
cit is a cinch that the Republican
party will be successful in the States,
said Mr.. Cohen, "tand that the next
Senate and House will be Republican.
He argued that it would be folly to
send a Delegate to Congress who was
not of the same political complexion as
