Spanking at the Liliha street meet
ing last night, the Democratic candi
late for the board Of supervisors, E. II.
f. Wolters, prophesied that the former
Republican stronghold of Laie, on
Oahu, would no more stay
within the fold of the G. o. p, but
that this year the party founded by
Jefferson would bring the Laie-ites
within its ALLOWING embrace.
He next paid his attention to Col.
Sam Parker, whom, stated the speaker,
the Republicans had put up to oppose
Joe Fern for the mayoralty. "Sam
Parker is my friend and / like him
but he spends half his
time in California and the States,' is
the way Wolters described the Union
geographically Did you ever hear of
Sam Parker giving luau for the com
mon people? No! He gives them for
the bon ton; the rich; the powerful. ~
The legislature came in for a share
of the supervisorial candidate caustlc
remarks. Governor Frear got all he
wanted from the legislature; all he had
to do was to ask, and it was handed
to him on a silver platter He re-
ferred to the recent Waialua meeting,
where, said the orator, the management
had provided "a shed which went sixty
yards and was covered with canvas,
where a bounteous luau fed the we'll
fed, but we, the leaders, of the Demo
cratic party, hundred yards away,
held our meeting under the rain, and
two small Napoleon armies could not
keep our friends away; they stood by
us and stuck by us, despite the luau
and the rain
There were several hundred people
at the meeting, and several of the Dem
ocratic candidates made the mountain
walled Liliha countryside echo with
their peculiar kind of Jeffersonian ora
tory.
Down in Kakaako.
The Kakaako meeting, held just
across from the famous Magoon block
was also well attended and noisy, to
say the least, for many there had looked
upon the cup that inebriates before the
meeting came TO order, and half the
time the speakers could not be heard
though most of them had good lungs
and made better use of them.
NJ. c. Pacheco said if the Democrats
got a vote for every banana plant the
Republicans cut. the whole push would
walk into office after election day. He
said that at Waialua he had been in
invited by three Republican friends to
ride in their auto into town and ac
cepted the invitation, but at certain
point the car, driven by Quinn, had
toppled over. but he was not killed
Couldn't kill a Democrat who was
slated to be elected November .. He
was the Kahuna Nui The interpreter
made much of the story, and the wahint
section of the meeting seemed partlcu
larry pleased with it. He closed WITT
brief address in Portuguese.
Sheriff Jarrett spoke briefly in Ha
waiian. He did not say much, and nee6
not have said anything, for the crowo
was with him and he was cheered into
silence.
Waialua Plemer said he had worked
eighteen years for the Waikiki Sugar
Company, five years at Waialua as head
overseer, and the last six years hac
made sodawater for the good Waialua
people. If elected he would do the best
he could.
Other speakers made their sci
speeches but said nothing new; they
all felt confident of victory, especially
since the straw votes lately taken il
the city had already made victory sure
for them.
