The question Of whom the delegates
should support for congress then came
up, and II. Baldwln's name was
lpresented. Mr.. Baldwin assured the
convention that under no circumstan-
ces could he consider the proposition
of allowing his name to go before the
Territorial Convention. and forcibly
urpad tho name Of Samuel Parker as
the logical candidate of the Republican
party. Mr. Parker was unanimously
endorsed as the first choice of the dele
gates elected to the Territorial Con
vention.
The Hama delegation, backed by thu
Molokai delegation then tried to rusl
through nominations for senators ant
representatives to the next Territorial
Legislature, but the majority Of tn
convention thought that it would b
wiser to await the action Of the com
mittee on platforms of the Territorial
convention before naming candidates
Iosepa and Kaleo of Hama fought har
TO push through nomination Of candi
dates 70 the legislature at once, Judg
Iosepa going so far as to say that Il tn
other delegates were not prepared t
make nominations, he himself would b
glad to name the candidates for then
The real joke involved in his PROPOSE
ton was that he was supposed to hav
4 a list of slated candidates in his poke
i, at the time. But the plan miscarrieC
and the candidates will not be nominal
q ed until after the return OF the dele
n gates from Honolulu.-News.
