Misunderstanding about the date.
CANDIDATE FOR DELEGATE.
| S. X. Kaloa, on a motion to have {
committee to nominate a candidate To-
Delegate to Congress, made fiowerN
speech that obviated that formality
He nominated Prince David Havana
Lakoa as the candidate. II seemed I,
him as II the stars had started to shin'
brighter as he rose to name their be
loved young prince. Heaven, tn
speaker thought, smiled down on TIL
nomination. Their nominee would
under the Constitution of the Unite,
States, be more than king. He woul,
serve his country faithfully and well a
Washington, in harmony with the sill
ver-tongued President who would b.
elected. In conclusion he called 70
three cheers for Bryan, which wer'
given with enthusiasm aided by tn
band.
Col. Cornwell seconded the molten
a score of delegates arising spontaL
eously, while were heard exclama
tons: I'VE all second It," Make 1
unanimous" 1T is unanimous"
Chairman Mccarthy announced witl
great pleasure the unanimous nomina
ton of Prince David Kawananakoa
and the convention rang again will
applause.
