■ 8068 Wūndenberg is not altogeth©r happy—he is un c ertain! GovERyMgNT reform»—bruken promises! Government policy —new promises! Thebe is still another five hnndred dollar retainer whieh was received, bnt for whieh no work was ever done! We have not as yet heard of its being re* turned to the government! What did yoo do with it Mr. ? Mr. Dillingham, we take pleasore in informing you of yonr nomination on the government ticket. Please let ns know as soon as possible whieh eletaent of the ticket yon belong to~whisky, sugar or prayers ? The "125 intellig<*nt voters" on th -> government side t who met at Ihe old • armory last night, compare rather un* favorably with the 500 native voters, who met there * few nights ago to listen to Messrs. Marques, Lucas, and Wilcox. Ip the question as to what mmst done about the Chinese question *' cannot be deferred" and 1 'delay only adds to the difficuity and periF' is troe, as stated by W. O. Smith, the sugar man on the whisky ticket, why did his party coolly delay action for two years by killing the former amendment? It seems the governinent party eon* vention in Honolulu played Messrs. Young, Bchuman and Halstead the same political trick the Hilo govern~ ment party convention did the Inde* pendent ticket in the island of Hawaii! The Advertiser laments the <( bolt" in H&waii, and hopea the >k split will not prove a permanent one. M If Memn. Young and Bohuman had cast their lot with their rightful brothers in the National Reform party, their namee would now beupon thepeoples* iieket and honorable victory would be their poxiion at the hands of the people. Thdae two typioai rep* reeentatives of ihe radastrial olasses now onjustly sc3er unmerited poliiieal disappointad, as the result of ma* ohine poHticB! \

Certainly, jnst so; of conrse Mr. Marques is on the wrong sider~every body in the govemmentparfy says the same thing—but some of the independent i( boys" are not so snre that he is on the weak side. * By the way, good Advei*tiser and fair sir, Senhor Gonsalves» havt» you not both a iaint- remembranoe of lateevsnts? Bememberye not,good politioal knighisl that the other evening Mr. Marqnes spoke to sundry 500. electors atasimpie ward or district meeting he!d in the old ar mory? Kemember ye ndt,good sirs,that Sam Wilder's brothey threw political mnd for the amusement of 400 govern* ment officials and sympathizers on the same evening at a grand mass meeting of the five districts! €k>od gentlemen, yon are qnite right; M*.

It is ptresamed a man going to register as | a voter iskeeping within the lines of I the law and is not to be treated by smart government boys as if he were on oontraband bnsiness.
