The article reproduces a contentious speech criticizing the Dole party for seeking to hand Hawaii to enemy powers and urging neutrality for the territory. It cites calls to declare neutrality like Portugal and Spain in colonial contexts, and notes reactions from speakers and the press as the declared platform is debated.

A condensed note tracing Lorrin A Thurston’s December 16 1898 paper in The Advertiser. It discusses Hawaii sugar wages from palmers to laborers and warns of Japanese labor and Italics supply cuts. It notes Dole government policy to permitJapanese importation to prevent bankruptcy and criticizes carpetbagger government.
A message from team captains informs all players of their rugby football clubs to meet for a practice session tomorrow at 4 o clock at the Makiki baseball field.
