Delegate Kuhio speaking TO q fairly
large and extremely interested audi
ence at the Fourth district Republican
rally last Saturday night, gave an en-
tireIy new tone to his campaign for
PREDICTION. The new tone is one OF
cancellation and reconciliation. and
from his words and manner 1t appear
Z ed that the delegate wants TO put past
differences with certain elements aside
and work in cooperation In the future.
/ Though he declared that the Ha-
waii delegation that went to Wash
ington to fight against free sugar had
/ ignored him, he did not follow this
statement, as he did many times in
the primary campaign, with an attack
ON the planters He declared that per-
haps mistakes had been made on both
sides, that perhaps he himself had
made some mistakes, and that this
should not prevent the people of Ha.
vail from getting together to fight
against the removal of tariff protec.
ton on sugar. 49,.
His entire speech was an appeal for
cooperation and for support at home
and he pledged himself, If that sup.
port be given, To furnish his best eff.
forts in Washington 3D.

tIon OF L. L. Mccandless, Democratic

wv. r. Castle for Kuhio. ~ g..
| w. r.. Castle followed Griffiths. He
touched upon the aaIstory of the Repub

national and local politics, and !. de
clared that the yemocratic national
party has neglected Hawaii, whereas
the Republicans have always paid par
ticular attention to these islands. 4;
i Turning to the delegateship, he said
/ There is just one thing for US &c
do-to vote the Republican ticket from
1.-THE candidate for delegate down Nov
we all know that there may be dissat
Eisfaction with SOME of those on it
but this is a case where it is of para
mount importance that Hawaii repudi
ate the Democratic doctrines entirely
A vote for George Carter is a vote
for McCandless. Unless the Repub
/ licans stand solidly back of Kuhio. Nc
L Candless will be elected and Hawai-
will send a Democrat to Congress. ..
we should stand, as well, by the
i result of the primary balloting. Give
the straight ticket your support" =

house, spoke strongly on behalf of the
Hawaiian candidates on the ,Republi
can ticket. He made special appeal

| fifth precincts of the fourth district tc
get out on election day and vote fol
every Hawaiian candidate on the tick
i ct. He praised their record in the last
Legislature, declared that they stood
for good government, and asserted
that it is not fair play for the 'haoles'
to scratch the Hawaiian candidates al
the polls. :. .,.s.sss.
