MEN WHO MAY RUN FOR THE
LEGISLATURE.
Fourth and Fifth Districts Have
Enough Candidates for the Senate
Damon for Representative.

politics are discussing the various can
didates for office TO be voted for at the
coming election.
|, The head" of the ticket is the can
didate for Delegate to Congress.
/ On the Republican side, Samuel
Parker is the only man with an avow-
ed candidacy. II. NJ. Sewall has with
drawn, and has given pleasant words
, for Parker's candidacy. But though
Parker has the field to himself just
now, there is said to be strong likeli-
hood of other candidates being brought
forward before the convention makes
the nomination.
There is Judge Little, too, who has
not put his lightning rod in cold stor-
age, and who may develop such
strength as to make a formidable op-
ponent.
On the Democratic side ]. o. Carter
seems to have a clearer field and more
general popular support than anyone
else. John II. Wise however is in the
field for the nomination. 1t is said he
hopes to secure such support among
the native element as to make his no
mination by the Democrats the part Of
undoubted political wisdom.
Robert w. Wilcox, is an avowed can
didate for the nomination of the Inde-
pendent party, and from outward and
visible signs he would seem almost GER
tain to get it.
Quite a number of men have already
been put forward by their friends, or
have come forward themselves as leg
islatiVe nominees, especially Senators.
Candidates for places in the lower
house are either less numerous or more
modest, as they have not come to the
} front in equal numbers as yet.
In the Fourth District including all
of Oahu south and east of Nuuanu
street, Paul Isenberg, A. G.. M. Robert
son, A. V. Gear and j. H Boyd are
fol rad Of dot 20. h..
ate. Robertson, it is said, is almost
sure to run. Paul Isenberg has been
put forward by his friends and will
probably be factor in the convention,
as will also the other two.
The Fifth District, which includes all
of Oahu not in the fourth, has for SEN
. atorial candidates three men who were
all in the late Republican convention
and all took prominent parts in it's de-
liberations. They are j. l.. Kaulukou,
who was chairman, w. c. Achi and c.
p. Iaukea.
James X. Kaulia has nominated him
self on the independent ticket for the
senate fIyrfn the Fifth District, and
Z has made a large number of other no.
mlnations, batch of them at every
place at which he makes a speech.
On the Democratic side there does
not seem to have been any candidates
l for the senate publicly put forth.
, S. NJ. Damon is one of the best
known men talked of for the house of
2 representatives. He is in the Fifth Dis
trict of Oahu, and is talked of among
2 the Republicans as a certain nominee
l of the party. Archie Gilfllan is certain
n to run in the fourth district and Clar-
ence Crabbe, another water front man.
e will probably be a candidate, if pOliti-
e cal gossip counts for anything. Both
men could poll large labor vote on
!, the front Crabbe may go for the Sen
n iG
, District man who will probably have a
|. place on the ticket. He was in the con
t vention and went to Philadelphia.
On the Democratic side Frank Brown
r is said to be a candidate for the house
: of representatives from the Fifth Dis
/, trict. There are doubtless other can
IL didates but no one has yet used me
gaphone announcing them.
l. The other islands are not behind OahI
f in putting men forward. In the SECOND
a district, including Maui, MOlokai anC
a Lanai, Judge A N. Kepoikai will be
