! WAlLUkU, Maui, Oct. 11.--Dele.
gate kalanianaole, accompanied by
Rev. 5. l.. Desha of Hilo, arrised in
Waikiki from Hawaii per the steam
er Mauna Kea last Friday night. The
Delegate was put up at Hon. and
Mrs. A. n. kepoikai's residence,
while the Hawaiian Sturgeon" was
entertained at Assessor and Mrs j.
II. Kunewa's.
On Saturday afternoon the Dele
gate and Rev. Desha spoke at the
Waiehu church to about sixty vot-
ers. II was good meeting, and
| Mr.. Desha was at his best. The
speech of the Delegate was well re-
ceived by his Hawaiian hearers.
On Saturday evening the Delegate
and his travelling political worker
spoke again to large gathering on
Market street. Notwithstanding It
had been quite showery during the
day, when II was noised about that
kuhio was in town and that he was
to undo the harm scattered broadcast
by Link McCandless only week be-
fore. hundreds turned out to hear
the Prince.
The Prince was preceded by Coun-
ty Attorney ID. II. Case. candidate
for reelection; Glen Crowell, who is
running for sheriff. and c. Lake, the
Waikiki candidate for supervisor.
The county Ncials merely made
their initial appearance in the pres
ent campaign. AS each candidate
took his seat after making his an
nouncement, each time the evening
air was rent with loud hurrahs. But
when the Prince made his appear
ance there was immediate silence toI
hear him speak on momentous Ques-
tions OF the day, especially the pub
lie land question, which greatly con-
GEMS the people at the present time.
With forceful words he nailed the
misrepresentation that "Eliwai' had
helped pass the land laws in Con-
gress, and in conclusion he asked
why the necessity of Eliwai's max
ing such determined fight to bel
elected II he could easily help pass
/ laws In Congress in his capacity as
a private citizen. II he is more use
fnl in that capacity, why change? A
few Democrats who had 'imbibed too
freely that afternoon could not re-
main silent when they heard Eli
walls name mentioned, SO they made
their presence known just to show
the Prince that the Democrats can
showia thing or twot to the Republic
cans Ia the shape OF rowdyism. But
1t was of short duration, for the au-
dience could not tolerate any ten
dency towards disorder.
The Prince spoke in English to
satisfy the demands OF the English
speaking voters OF Waikiki.
Rev. Desha was the last speaker.
and he kept the large assembly quiet
from the beginning to the end. In
eloquent words he pictured to themt
the work OF the Delegate in Con-
gress, and then told them how the
Prince opened his home at Honolulu
to receive the hundreds who were
rendered homeless by the bubonic
plague fire. Link was there, too.
but instead OF kissing babies as he
did recently at Kona, and seeing that
the homeless We're made comfortable.
he was promenading the public
streets of Honolulu with gun to
see that none of the homeless should
get away. OF the attitude OF the
two men at that most heartrending
scene, Kuhio proved himself bene-
factor and lover of mankind be-
yond compare.
Senator w. T. Robinson was
chairman OF the meeting.
On Sunday Delegate Kuhio. Rev.
Desha and Glen Crowell went to Ka-
naio, in the Honuaula district. About
sixty greeted the travellers at the
little church at Karaio. The Prince
made deep impression there. while
Rev. Desha caused copious tears to
flow from the eyes of his hearers as
he related to them how the Prince
had opened his home, yea. his heart.
for the reception of those OF his
own people who were In deep dis.
