Solid Business Men Opposed to
the Leper Bill and Hawaiian

That Honolulu people aro watching
with very keen Interest the political Is
sues of tho day can be doubted bj no
one who was present at the Ucpubll

for there was a good attendance ot
substantial pcoplo of tho city nnxloun
to hear what there was (o bo said on
the Wilcox leper bill and the disfran
chisement proposition of A S Hart
well. While the meeting was distinctly Re
publican, the attendance was by no
means confined to members of that po
lltlcal faith. Leaders of tho Democra-, Wc hae tIl0Ugan(I nt tho settlement
