From Ihoiwaiul to lifleen hun
dred people gathered ul the Hono
lulu ICitles Armory yesleiday even
iiu;, on tliu call for a thlnl ' district
Meeting of the National Reform
Party, whopo candidates were mi
uoitnccil to speak.
Mr. Robert Morn presided and on
calling the meeting to order staled
that It wm convened to hear candi
dates on the. platform and their pur
posed if. elected.
Mr. 0. J. McCarthy Haiti the Na
tional Itufonn Party repicsenletl the
wotkingmcn of all nationalities and
thu Ilawaiians, whose interests
were identical. One plank of the
platform on which ho laid .especial
stress was that promising n reduc
tion of 'l lie property qualification for
voting 'for Noble's. Having been
horn in the United Slates, whore
the vote of a man earning one dollar
a day was as good as that of the mil
lionaire, he wanted to live under
laws of similar equality, lie- did
not agree wllh foreigners who told
1 1 i in the Ilawaiians under a re
duced franchise would vote in a
solid body against foreigners. When
did thu Ilawaiians do injustice to
foreigners previous to the past six
or seven years? (Applause.) His
F.veellency I.. A. Thurston at the
Reform meeting the previous night
had represented the National He
form Party as being opposed to a
continuation of reprocity with the
United States. When the Minister
of llie Interior said that he lied ami
lie knew it (applause). The plat
torm of this party supports the con
tinuance of the present relations
with llie United States, only with
the reservation that, Hi case the
United -Slates nullified our advan
tages under the treaty, we should be
at liberty to make new commercial
alliances elsewhere. WJiat he said
in quoting Ricn.i's address to the
Unmans the, other -night was true,
notwithstanding thai it was ridicul
ed by their opponents. Lastsession
the Government did not dare to ini
tiate -anti-Chinese legislation, but
got a private member to do it, be
cause they were afraid of losing
their seats. He did not believe
Minister Thurston, when he proriiis
ed to suppoit Iho Chinese amend
ment. When he had hoard Mr.
Thurston in this hall say that he
was prouder of being a private in
the Rifles than he was of being a
Minister of the Crown he lost all
confidence in his voracity.. (Ap
plause.) Hon." II.. A. Widemann" said, lie
had not intended to speak to-night,
but his attention was called to the
speech made by His Excellency L.
A. Thurston last night. Ho Im
mediately paid live cents for a copy
of this paper (P. C. A.). Mr. Thurs
ton said that "a number of men in
llie Opposition ranks were in the
country and participated in these
matters, but they liave forgotten it
all." The speaker said lie was in
this country at the time to which
Mr. Thurston referred, Ho was
here in 1813 when II. R. M. S.
Carysfort was hero with .Lord George
I'au'let as commander, when the
Hritish flag was waving over the
islands. Tic was also here when
the French warship was here in
1819. He had lived in these limes
and remembered them. Mr. Thurs
ton could not possibly remember
them, for he. was not born then.
Referring to the French, Mr. Thurs
ton said: "As a finale the French
took the private yacht belonging to
aiuehameha III. and sailed it to
Tahiti. It lias never been heard of
since nor has any compensation ever
been made for it." Mr. Widemann
said he landed in Lahaina, Septem
ber, 1840.; The first trip .between
the islands he over made was in this
schooner, the Kamchamcha. Thorc
was not the slightest doubt the
French took this schooner away.
Whether Thurston has misread his
tory or intentionally' misrepresented
facts lie did not knoiy. lie (Thurs
(on) said no compensation had ever
been made. If thorc had been a
statesman at thu head of the French
cabinet at that-time of the calibre of
Mr.'Thur.ston, the case m'ght have
been different. A statesman of Mr.
" Thurston's calibre would have offer
ed compensation of oiic-fourlh of
the vessel's value direct. Great na
tions do not readily admit the faults
of their olllcers. Rut now the French
Government did admit they were
wrong admitted it by facts. They
scut in 18.' 1, or thereabout, more
than the value of the vessel to the
palace here. The speaker was
aware of the fact from the late
Willliam Webster, who was the
King's agent. The Government
sent a pair of handsome Ormolu
clocks, that the speaker saw at the
time. There wcro many people in
this room who had seen those clpcks,
A full set of BJIver table'1 ware- whs
cent to tliqi 'palace ab'tlio sa'ine lime,
also' a magnillccnt pair of silver can
delabra. He did not know "what else
was fent, but these things ho was
aware of personally. Tho French
( Government never said 'thesb pre
sents were a 'compensation for the
vessel, bill (hey wero so neverthe
less, Mr. Thurston liirlher Raid,
referring to the Opposition, .PThey
havcMcarned nothing" He did not
know whether Thurston had learned
nothing, but for himself (Mr. W.)
he. had learned (o speak the truth.
Then hu said, "Now they have llie
cold impudence lo come forward and
talk iiboitt giving the United Stales
the go-by and going to France for
protection ; through our distrust of
the intention of tho United States."
Now I will tell you what, is thu in
lonlion of all thu candidates on this
platform. Wn fully recognize all
Ihal the United States ImsTilnnu for
this country, and emphasize il
doubly, anil' trebly, and qtiadruply.
All wherein we differ from Ills Fa
cellency is in this, that wo inlend to
stand for the independence of this
country forever. We understand
that to be the policy of llie United
States so far as il has ever been re
vealed lo us. Gentlemen, 1 thank
you for your attention. I advise
my friends on the other side not to
scratch any ticket. (Laughter). I
give you the Bame advice. Go to
the polls shouldc! to shoulder and
deposit the full ticket. For scratch
ing is dangerous. (Laughter and ap
plause). Mr. K. C. Macfarlane said Mr.
Thurston, in his unique speech last
night, had referred to the National
Reform platform as a mere formali
ty, because none of thu candidates
said anything about it. 1 propose
lo discuss this platform, and, for
the benefit of Mr. Thurston, to put
myself on record upon I. We l.ivnr
a system of immigration that will
introduce a desirable class of set
tlers, and for that purpose will ex
pect the Government to pursue a
policy that will lead lo thu re popu
lation of the country. The best '
class of labor for repopulation is the
native Hawaiian, who arc llie best
adapted for all classes of work.
Next to the Hawaiian we must look
for a class of foreigners that vill
support modern civilization. Next
lo the Ilawaiians the Portuguese are
(he most desirable class of laborers.
For years past llie Portuguese
have contributed largely to llie Hade
and industry of the country and as
sisted lo built up the nation.
Therefore we favor 'a liberal policy
from "the Government which will in
duce more of these people lo come
and stay. Anyone who has read
recent. Hawaiian publications must
see that, the question of the proper
ty qualification is one that must
force itself upon the next Legisla
ture. The present limit was no
doubt thought to bo a just one, but
when so many intelligent Ilawaiians,
in the police and other public and
private service, arc shut out by it,
there can be no doubt that a great
injustice is being done to these in
telligent classes. As was well said by
Mr. McCarthy, llie restriction may
have been necessary in 1887, but
such a necessity is no longer ap
parent. While I am no advocate of
universal siiffrago'l believe in giving
those men their rights who arc now
so unjustly debarred. In the mat
ter of public works the little that
has been done 'so far has only deve
loped the necdof pushing improve
ments as far as can be dono consis
tent witli elllciency, and business
like methods. The great "wauls of
the country arc good roads, good
bridges, and good landings. The
recent development of railway en
terprise marks a new era of ad
vancement and opens the way for a
rapid settlement of hitherto unpro
ductive lands and . the development
of a large and healthy immigration.
Tho introduction of railways will
largely develop the resources of the
country. In connection, with this 1
would advocate a national scheme
of road making and irrigation. If
this can be done without turning a
stream of money from the public
treasuiy into private pockets, it
would provide for a new population
of the kind required' and would
immensely stimulato Iho develop
ment of new and varied industries.
We advocate deepening Honolulu
harbor and increasing our wharf fa
cilities, so as to accommodate the
commerce of the world. , Wo would
advocato, if necessary, a system of
sewage, the building' of good roads
Into tho country districts, the build
ing of good bridges and gootl land
ings all over the islands. All these
tilings are of such importance that
I would recommend the employment
of a competent and thorough engi
neer, even if Ids salary required to
be the hlghosl under' the Govern
ment. The kind of public works
wc havo been getting proves that
these men, more than technically,
know nothing of their business, and
for this reason I would go in for a
competent " engineer. Neither llie
electric lights, the water works, nor
the postollicc should bo treated
merely as sources of revenue, but
rather in the line of public benefits.
In the matter of sanitation, while
we do not complain of what has
been done', wo believe that a plan
of sanitation could have been laid
out on broader grounds. This mat
ter of tho public health is a most im
portant one, if we arc to attract
tourist travel. These islands have
natural . advantages that should
make them a- leading sanitarium,
and it seems wo have not taken ad
vantage of our unrivalled position.
Largo (owns are built up In Califor
nia on tourist travel atone, and it
would bo worth while going into
this business even if we have to get,
Government assistance. -Tlierc can
be no doubt in tho minds of think
ing 'men thai tfio'''f(iUiro of. this
country is dependent upon those of
.us who nre'iipou the scenu of action
to-day. If, as Mr. Seward predict
ed, tho Pacific is tp be the theatre
of the woild's contnicree in tho fu
ture, it, Isnbout time thai we should
be getting our house in order. This
most burning question, however, is
Dial of immigration for labor, and
is one lhat calls for the best thought
that can lie brought to bear upon
the subject. The most rabid agita
tor t)iv tho Chinese question would
not limit immigration for purposes
of labor within a point that would
cripplu development. Those engag
ed in the large t'lilui prises must sym
pathise witli llio'ie engaged in lesser
ones ami endeavor so to arrange
matters with regard to immigration
of laborers, thai the greater good
may come lo the greater number.
While wo desire no conflict with
those who have done so much to de
velop thu leading interests of the
Kingdom, we would bo recruant
to the best interests of those who
have given such a heaity alligeance
to the National Reform Parly if wo
did not say (o them lhat the power
lo shape legislation is in their hands,
and to sec to It that they retain thai
power.
Mr. John Phillips said he was not
piepared to make a speech, because
a speech took lime lo prepare, just,
as Phil. DcmarcM required time to
make his wares (laughter). The
object of the National Reform Parly
was good Government. There were
as many different ideas as to good
government as there were in religion.
The Protestant and Catholic, Mo
hammedan and Hebrew, were all
seeking the same end. The National
Ruform Parly and the Reform Party
were seeking one object. The differ
ence was that tho National Reform
Party, instead of being directed by
a clique, would try to obtain gootl
government for all the people. They
did not believe in leveling social
conditions by law, but in giving the
workingmeii justice in public affairs.
In old limes it was the custom lo
keep a family jester in aristocratic
houses. One of these jesters was
named James. Fleming. One morn
ing he entered the breakfast room
willi a long face. His master asked
him why he looked so glum. He
answered that he had had a bad
dream, he dreamt hu was in hell.
And what were they doing there?
his master asked. Oh, just the
same as they arc doing here, taking
in the rich and leaving out the poor.
(Laughter). This was about the
state of nll'airs under the presold.
Government. He recollected the
present Attorney-General, speaking
in this hall on June SO, 1887, quot
ing from .Scripture to represent Mr.
Gibson "gathering all things lo him
self." Now, if this is not what the
present Government has been doing
he kniyv nothing. They had heard
a great deal about what the present
Government had been doing. Now,
when the Government took oflicc,
we did not expect that they wcro
going to build any more men-of-war,
or have any more missions to Sa
moa. We expected that they .would
build gootl roa'tls, gootl school
houses, etc. Now, they have veneer
ed some of the roads. We are told
by carpenters that many of the new
school houses arc already falling to
pieces, and the reason -is thai the
estimates are made on such a picay
unish basin that competent mechanics
cannot compete. '" We have sonic
gootl fair weather . roads one up
Punchbowl and a gootl fair weather
ditch on Punchbowl. But the pros
pects arc that on tho first heavy rain
the road will be washed into the.
ditch, and the contents of the ditch
will roll into (he town. The reason
was that it was no use to send a boy
on a man's errand, and to have pub
lic works done properly you mu
have men competent therefor. The
Government boasts of the electric
light. Now, who introduced the
electric light? (A voice The King.)
Yes, the King had the Palace and
the Hotel lit up with electricity be
fore this Government was thought
of. When this Government came
in they said they would have
nothing to do witli the King's
plant. They first got an appro
priation of' $o0t000, with which
they lighted part of the town. This
was soon used up and $20,000 addi
tional asked for, with which the
Minister promised to give light to
houses, and gel a revenue therefrom
instead of its being a burden. Do
not be surprised If it proves that
the lighting has cost double the
SoO.OOO appropriated, and yet the
tiling is only a gigantic experiment.
Thu plant has reached the limit of
its capacity when only a few houses
have been furnished with Die light,
and piobably a large appropriation
will be asked next session lo pro
cure an efficient equipment. The
speaker closed by saying the Na
tional Reform Party felt assured,
notwithstanding the boasting of their
opponents, that they could give the
country aiii improvement on the
present government. (Applause).
Mr. T. R. .Lucas was proud of
this for a ward meeting, and glad to
seo tho Minister of Interior present,
so that he could see where thu peo
ple were. He was also glad Id see
some of the Reform candidates for
Nobles present, as they could not
get up meetings for themselves, It
was a p.ity the National Reform
Varty'hud not taken hold two years
and 'a half ago, -so as to have saved
the country from the rule of a family
compact, and to have put competent
men' h do' tho counlyy'a services',
Mr. Litems went on',' amidst roars of
laugliicr, to play on tho references,
iri tho Reform campaign sheets and
meetings, to tho "little red lion of
the fourth ward." He wasgoUig to
have another mectiiig'in the fourth'
district next cveniug, and not have'

Reform Parly. Hu ii.ul heard dur
ing the day of a man promised the
position of Poll Suivuyor if lie vot
ed the iicfonn llck"l, but this parly
hail no positions lu oll'er.
Mr. A. M'liques said the meeting
had originally been intended as a
npeeial one 'for the third ward. Hu
had had the pleasure of meeting llie
Portuguese and Ilawaiians separ
ately several times. As the hour
was late, and much that hu had in
tended to say had been uttered by
previous speakers, he would not de
tain them long. Ills biography had
siilllciently been presented by an
opponent who is reported to grow
every day Wilder and Wilder. The
only thing he would say was that
the Government party were so shoil
of arguments, that (liey were intro
ducing into politics questions entire
ly foreign to the issues. It was t lie
first occasion in a meeting held last
night when, in any civilized coun
try, a Minister of the Crown ever
came forward to insult a friendly
nation for the purpose of making
political capital (applause). In the
history of Hawaii there hail been
difficulties between the P.nglrsh and
French, but they were always due
to the misgoveriimcnt of the Mis
sionary Part' of this country. If
there was one countiy to which we
owed thu recognition of independ
ence, it was precisely to France,
who was insulted last night, and to
Kngland, for the United States did
not join in thu first treaty ever made
lo recognize the independence of
countries in the Pacific. (Loud ap
plause.) In 18."!) Kngland and
France wanted to make a new treaty
to secure more firmly the independ
ence of these islands, but America
again refused to join in such a
tripartite treaty. Hu was ready lo
recognize what the islands owe to
the United States, but he wanted
justice done to the two other friend
ly nations, Kngland and France. If
the Ministry honestly wanted as
they pretended to secure our inde
pendence, there were documents
now in the Foreign Office lo show
that, if approached, Germany anil
Kngland would join in :i treaty as
suiing our independence, in which
doubtless France, Russia and Italy
would be willing to co-operate. If
they wanted to provu. their as
sumed love for the country and
make its independence and neutral
rights secure forever, instead of
throwing the country into the hands
of one nation, now would be the
time to get all European Powers to
unite in an agreement to respect our
independence, on the principle that
a joint security was surer than an
isolated one (applause). He wanted
to live and die here, ami wanted to
die a free Hawaiian, and was there
fore against any annexation, he
was in favor of a free and just gov
ernment, did not belong lo any
party or clique; but was independ
ent, and ready to vote, if 'Elected,
for right and against wrong, on
whatever side it might be. (Ap
plause). He had plcdgctl himself
lo the National Reform platform,
because he considered it an honest,
sincere, and full programme, and, if
elected, should try to carry out the
provisions of that platform as fully
and as sincerely as possible. lie
would specially remember that vhc
had had the. honor of being salutc'd
by the workingmen, as their repre
sentative and protector. In con
cluding, Mr. Marques reminded the
electors of the ward Hint there were
only two candidates for Representa
tive in this third ward and any votes
for another man would be thrown
away. Ho should not follow his
opponents in abusing the' opposing
candidate. Mr. Gonsalvcs was a
gentleman and "friend" of k his, and
the only thing he had against him
was that ho was on the wrong side.
Mr. Gonsalvcs had told him ho was
forced to run. ' Any man who was
forced to run, would be forced to
vote as he was told. (Applause. )
Mr, R. W. Wilcox spoke in Ha
waiian without interpretation, ami
was loudly cheered throughout his
remarks. Mr. Rosa: having entered,
however, was asked to interpret,
and on coming forward was received
witli loud applause. Mr. Wilcox
said lie had been reported in the pa
pers that he would put all foreigners
out of ollice. He would not have
the right to do such a thing and it
was no part of his intention. If
they got into power-tliey would have
the offices filled with competent men
no matter of what color. lUit-if
dishonesty on the part of officials
was discovered it should be their
duty to have the guilty ones dis
missed. Much had been rumored
in regard to wrongdoing in various
departments. He knew that some'
of these, rumors wero true, and if lie
was elected it would be his endeavor
lo sift llicso matters and expose the
facts to the public. Appointments
lo olficc should not be made on the
ground of influential relationship
but entirely on that of competency.
Much had been said in the Daily
Times vilifying him, representing
that if he hail the power he would
put Ilawaiians in office regardless, of
capacity or Illness. TJda was un
true, as hiq, a would bo lo have
p.nly clhoieiit public servants, ap
pointed froiiHiion who were identi
fied with the country. It was false,
also, that he had consigned his peo
ple who went against him lo, being
food for sharks. He had talked
freely regarding the 'unequal deal
ings with Ids people. It was with
regret that he read the report of
Minister Thurston's speech, where
FEBRUAUY
lift said he did not know thu differ
ence between metres and feet. He
went to school with Thuislnn at Ha
leakal i, and often had to correct
Tliiii-bton's sums. They had run to
gether as children, and ho could not
understand how Thurston was so
bilter against him, as he had no
such fueling against him. Wli.il- !
ever Thurston and Kinney said
against him on the platfotm or in
the pre3s, they could lie a-sured I
