Statehood in Ten Years.
r. w. Single made hit by pre-.
dieting that Hawaii would be a State
of the Union within ten years, while
if the people here showed that they
knew how to govern themselves as
well in the future as in the past, there
need be no fear of government by COM
mission. eff you want statehood, vote
for Kuhio and the Republican party,
but if you want government by COM
mission, vote for McCandless and the
Democrats, because if you vote against
the Republican party now, after what
it has done for you, you will be TAX
ing the first step TO show that you
have not the wisdom to govern your
Selves
Shingle referred to an interview he
had had with Captain Parks to show
that no Orientals nor non-citizens were
at work on local Federal works. 1t
was at this juncture that he was in
te11upted by the chairman and some
what of mix-up resulted although
this was Strengthened out without any
harm being done.
The chairman's speech was inter-
esting and to the point. 6There is a
scrub in the custom house who is en-
ploying bunch of Mongolians over at
Molokai, - he said. FsThis is an Amer.
lean Territory and we want American
citizens here, not bunch of heather
doing us out of making an honest liv-
ing and run by a scrub who doesn It

10000 men at Pearl Harbor and that
will mean city down there of thirty
thousand people, and they will be
American citizens and not bunch of
Chinese run by a scrub. -
Long on Education.
E. A. G. Long made good address
on the work that the Republican
party has done for the cause of edu-
cation in Hawaii, referring to the ap-
p1opriation of 100000 made last ses-
sion for teachers salaries and the
large appropriations for new schools.
/! Towse Strong for Taft.
Ed. Towse predicted the election of
Taft as President and based an appeal
to the people here to support Kuhio
as Delegate On that prediction, stat
ing that it was due Kuhio, the Terri
tory and the party that he be sent
back to Washington to carry on the
work ne has done so much IN starting.
In getting down to local issues, the
speaker compared the three candidates
for Mayor. Achi was a discredlted
person and unworthy of support, while
Fern had not had the advantages to
fit him for the position. Of the three,
Lane was the logical Mayor and one
who could fill the position credltably.
It was necessary to elect a SOLID he
publican delegation for the Leglsla-
tu1c.
OF the three candidates for Sheriff,
he said that Iaukea was a perfect lady
and Jarrett a good boy, but neither
of them was fitted to play the man s
part in the office, while Wise had been
tried and found strong, courageous and
eager to do his duty.
Mr.. Towse was the last speaker, the
chairman referring feelingly to the
fact that Colonel Parker, who was to
have spoken, was in sorrow and
trouble, in which he had the sympathy
of the community.
Three cheers were then called. Tor
and the meeting broke up.
Big Crowd at Waialus.
An exceptionally large crowd col
lected at Waialua last night for the
Republican rally. People streamed IN
from the surrounding country until the
space in front of the platform was
black with humanity.
Andrew Cox was the first speaker
and was forced to wait several minutes
before the cheering subsidized. He was
followed by John Wise, who was
also enthusiastically received. When
Prince Cupid mounted the stump the
applause was deafening and he was
forced to wait a full five minutes be-
fore he could make himself heard.
A special train brought people IN
from Kahana, Punaluu, Hauula and
Laie, while the special from Honolulu
picked up crowds at each stop on the
way to Waialua.
Those present state that it was one
of the most enthusiastic Republican
rallies they have ever attended, and
