Hawaii Holomua, Volume III, Number 256, 5 Iulai 1893 — Untitled [ARTICLE]

Tiie Fourlh of JUly was properly and euthusiastically celebraitd yesterday as being the 117th birthday ofthegreat American Republic. W e eompiimenl the different comraittees on their great success, and especially on having allogether eliminated everything whieh might be construed as bemg Hawaiiau politics from the celebration of their nalional day, and we desire particulariy to compliraent the Kentuckv orator, Lueien \oung for his masterly address, whieh in spite of the necessary sprinkling ol' spread-eagleism was one of the best ' and most sensible speeches it has vet heen in our lot to hear from a fourth of July orator. In spite of the great temptation he also braveIy kept out of Hawaiian politics, altbough he got as near to the hne — skirts we mean—as he eonveniently could without colliding with prnpriety and us. We finally forgive Mr. P. C. Jonee for the latest resurrection of his esteemed forefathers and uneiea, and hunker Ilill. His audience took it all in good part and we have not heard anything about an increase in the death rate m town this morning. We trust that the revered deceased take the annual use made of them in as friendly a spirit as we do. in Mr. Jones’ now eomewhal shopworn Bunker Hill epeeeh.
