MR.
D.
HAMILTON JACKSON
AD-
DRESSED
A GATHERING IN SUNDAY
MARKET LAST NIGHT
and dealt with
the
quaestion
of the form of
government
suitable
and
desired
in
these
islands
representing
it
as
that the oppressors
of
the
people
avored
a
retention
of
the
present
form which
he strangely
enough
complimented
in
many
respects.
The
speaker
agreed
'
that
the
sponsors
for
the
present
form
of
government
are
correct
in sayiog
that the coiony can-
not bear
its
own
expenses
even
now,
but
expects
that
the
same
aid the
Fed-
eral
Government
is
now
extending
will
be continued.
He
did not know whether
or not the $200,000
a year granted
us was
absolutely
necessary
but he thought
we
had the same right to look for
it under
a
chanzed
administration.
The
weather
which had
been rainy
all day interrupted
the meeting
which
was
dispersed
by
a
shower
just after 8.30.

to this island
