Ths main ppliUeal mbt ol the gov~ emmeni is being miae aganittthe m* tire raee. Now is th|e time for #rery honest ioreigner to €mdeavor to award native Hawaiiane tike politieai jhs' tice denied them as a raee by thoir professed "kaole &iēdds ,r o! the lam-ily-coiapact! ! A slight npple in the form o! a ramor that many govennent Totes wiH be trans!erred !rom |Achi to a more available candidate roffles the serenity o! the political surface. The only available candidate lor representative from the fifth distriot is the nominee I of the National Hefōrm party for that j office. 1 The minister of the interior mshes iuto print occasionally with campaign documents. These sorties of his excellency might be considered by those tainted with national reform tenden- | cies as*somewhat political. And this vieW wou!d obtain some jugtifiuation from th<: fact that these ministerial vindicatß n$ always contain denuncia* tions of ';ational reform candidates. Poor *Diogenes! With his httle candle in hand he has.been moving among men until he finds no honesty, no integrity, no fairness, except in hifi own little self.—Advtrtiser. It is quite evidont from the above, as we have long expected, that "poor Diogenes ,, has been issociating almost exclusively with the mem.bers of the govp.rnmfint party for the last two years. We heartily congratulate "poor Diogones" on lately getting on the people's side, where we hope he will stay sufiiciently long to cultivate the political virtues unknown to the pai*ty of promise-breakers!
