AND DEMOCRATS GIRD ON THEIR
ARMOR FOR THE FIRST AMERICAN ELECTION

by one of its leaders echoed the stir
ring nomination speech of the man
who placed the stalwart Hawaiian's
name before them, and in the end, with
one mighty shout and with enthusiasm
such as Honolulu has rarely known be-
fore. a unanimous vote was cast for
Parker as nominee for Congress.
The Convention before adjourning Sc
lected it's Territorial Central Commit
tee. The names Of the committeeman
were proposed and offered by each dis
trict in turn, and they represent a
good set of men. There was no discus
sion over their merits and everyone
seemed satisfied with the personnel

tee. which was seconded by Judge Kau-
lrkou. w. ]. Lowrie OF the Third Dis
trict (MauD moved the nominations close
and that the election of Mr.. Hendry be
made unanimous. The chair announced
the selection of Mr.. Hendry as his right
hand man during the preliminary affairs
OF the convention and the gentleman took
his seat on the platform.
A. B. Loebenstein of the First District
moved that the chair appoint a commit
tee on credentials consisting of one
me mber from each representative district.
The committee was appointed as fol-
lows: A. B. Loebenstein, First District:
HI. Holstein, Second District; NJ. H.
Reuter-, Third District; Andrew Brown
Fourth District; George F. Renton, Fifth
District.
Upon motion OF Judge Kaulpkou a re-
cess for five minutes was taken to allow

Vaudeville and politics were mingled
at the district convention of the Demo-
Gratis at the Orpheurn last evening. It
was rather hard to tell where the poll
tics ended and the vaudeville began,
for the proceedings savored Of opera
bouffe throughout. '"To keep the peo-
pie in a good humor during the recess"
a number of the Orpheum stars had
been engaged and they danced and
sang for a half hour or more to the de-
light of the convention.
1t was evident that the proceedings
were cut and dried. Scarcely any con-
cealment of that fact was attempted.
The nominations had been prepared be-
forehand by the politicians that control
the Democracy Of the city. They had
even been set down on typewriter
sheets; everything went as had been
had been chosen to make the nomina-
tions sat in front close to the platform
and they gave out the names, consult
ing their little leaflets at intervals
while the mass of the convention sat
in the rear and took it all without pro-
test. From back in the house w. A.
Kinney ventured a mild remonstrance
to this sort OF machine work, but even
then there was little modification of
the program and most Of the nominees
were placed on the ticket by ten or a
dozen of the ring.

districts of Hawaii. Six districts were
noted by placards, commencing with the
First and Fourth directly in front of the
platform; next in order were the Second
and Fifth. and lastly the Third and
Sixth.
Some surprise was manifested when the
seats of the Sixth District were found to
be vacant. Not a member of the Repub-
lican party from the Island of Kauai was
present. Not a proxy was received and
Kauai showed plainly that those who rep
resented the Republican party in the first
Republican convention held last May had
backslided and left their party in the
lurch. The following notation on the
slip containing the official list of names
of delegates evidenced the lack of sup
port which the party leaders have to ex-
pect from their Kauai brethren:
