BROOKLYN, May 1.-Two ships

wipe out the Dewey fleet that
whipped Spain. The Florida, built
in the Brooklyn navy yards by
Uncle Sam himself, at a cost of
S6,000,000, is the highest type of
the 20 new battleships that have
been built since the Spanish-Amer-
lean war.
The forward strides of the Amer
lean navy have been so rapid that
the average citizen does not fully
realize them. Since the Spanish
war the fleet has been rebuilt. or
rather, replaced by vessels vastly
larger than the fighting machines
that Dewey used so successfully.
The Florida weighs 10000 tons

Now comes Mccarthy and other Democrats who were
with MCCandess in the convention when he framed his plat
form, and declare they will not support that Democratic plat
form. They say they for their own platform,
one contained in MCCarthys statement.
How many platforms have the so-caIed Democrats any

What assurance have the people that these men calling
themselves Democrats will not have platform and
promise next week, and then if they should have the
good luck to be elected by all that holy that they
had no platform anyway and were free to run their secret

Not single Intelligent man In the

fact that such a chain OF power as the

the good name of the llawaian-Amer-

Islands, hold up the industries and

Honest men of this city who have
come in contact with the conspiracy
of the Democratic organization have
stood aghast at the trickery, the dis

to be perpetrated upon our govern
ment.
But this is no time to stand around

Citizens of Honolulu don't let your

Don't fool yourself.
The facts are absolute facts, and the
most alarming feature about the
whole affair is sthat otherwise rep
utable men have allowed themselves
to remain associated with the Demo-
cratic organization that is now
brought into the open in its true char
acter, not only as an enemy of the
prosperity of the Territory but an en-
envy OF honesty in government.
If you vote the Democratic ticket,
you vote for dishonesty in govern

That's the long and the short Of it.
No Democrat with the record Of

No supporter of honest government
can vote for Democrat who has

the city and county a good. clean
ticket. at that convention the Hon
orable John W, Cathcart was nomi-
mated for the otflce Of city and Coun-
ty Attorney; when his name was
presented to the convention, any del
egateT sitting therein had the right
to take the floor and object to his
nomination; there were no objec.
lions, and his nomination was unan-
lmous, and he has behind him I'm this
contest the Republican party of the
City and County of Honolulu; he is
a broad-minded man, and an able
lawyer; he has filed the Office of
Deputy Attorney General of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii, and the strongest
men in the legal profession have to
acknowledge that he is foeman
worthy of their steel; he has Sc
cured the conviction of violaters OF
the law from one end of the Terri
tory to the other, and IL he errs at
all, IL is on the side of mercy. II

error on the side of mercy is not

tice demands extreme measures
under the circumstances of the case,
public opinion approves of merciful
acts. and ass the object of criminal

crime, rather than punishment, the
object is attained when public

life and character of men is open to
criticism, hut there are certain can
vases which are not permissible
under angi code of political ethics,
and some of the canvasses used
against Cathcart are unfair and un-
worthy of any respectable politician.
Upon his record as City and County
Attorney for the past two years he
goes to the polls, not upon any part
of that record but upon the whole
of it. He should be judged, and we
should be slow to condemn man
who has tried Ito do hfsswhole duty,
sometimes under trying circum-
