A PATRIOTIC HAWAIIAN.

Colonel Iaukea's speeches at the con-
vention of the Fifth District mark him
as one of the rising politicians in the
Territory. His remarks upon the neces-
sity of purity in elections bore fruit in
the resolution which elected Judge Will
cox and DR.. Hubby, and threw out the
original cotestants, Messrs. Stewart,
Sims and Holt.
The position taken by the custodian
of the actual ballots cast at the regular
meeting of May 49, is certainly curious.
He refused to have them examined by
the Central Committee. However, the
matter is now of small Importance, The
only trouble is that the stigma of hav-
ing stuffed a box with ballots remains
upon the Republicans Of the seventh
precinct of the Fifth District, and some
one or other knows that he has done
the deed, and is anxious to hide the
crime.
The position of Colonel Iaukea is an
unassailable one. He believes in Re
publicanism and intends to bring as
many of his countrymen as possible
into the fold. But he believes in honest
Republicanism, and is averse to any
political chicanery. What Colonel Iau-
kea did at the assembly of delegates
yesterday was to show that any tricks
at the polls will not be tolerated. Our
elections must be pure. 1t is what we
have all advocated, and the first depar-
ture has been sternly censured.
That this censure should come from
an Hawaiian is singularly appropriate.
That it should be levelled at gentlemen
who are not Hawaiians, is unfortunate
for them. But the incident should be
one which will show that the native
Hawaiian is perfectly able to care for
himself, both politically and socially,
and that he has strong party feeling.

FOR DELEGATE.

The choice of Benjamin f. Dillingham;
as a delegate at the Philadelphia COM
vention would be a good one Mr. Dill
bingham is one Of the most progressive
of our business men, and can apply the
same energy to politics as to his many
enterprises. 1t would be fitting honor
to bestow upon Hawaii's railroad mag
nate to represent Hawaii at the first
Republican convention in which she
will have a seat.
When enc glances over Mr.. Dillng-
hams career i'm connection with the
railway, one can realize what indomita-
BILE courage. and what thorough faith
he had in his venture. In the eighties
Mr.. Dillingham; was looked upon as a
dreamer; a man who was utterly Wis
ionary, and whose schemes would come
20 nought. Today the railway extends
from Honolulu to Kahuku, and its
shares sell for nearly double their par
value, while the prospects are that In
few years it will double again.
The railway has made the develop
ment of the large plantations possible.
eva, Oahu and Honolulu, are the direct
children of the railway enterprise. Be
sides these large developments the rail-
way has opened up an avenue for minor
Industries, which will grow as our pop
ulation grows.
The railway is boon for tourist trav-
el. The enterprise Of hotel at Waia-
lua, which offers such attractions to
those who visit the Island, and who
need rest and recreation, is directly due
to the railway. In fact, both directly
and indirectly, the railway has been a
principal factor in pushing forward the
prosperity Of the Island of oahu. 1t is
perfectly right that one of the delegates
should be an oahu man, and B. F. Dill
bingham is the man upon whom the
choice should fall. We want our Ter
ritory to be represented by bright and
successful men who have carved their
own futures, and showered prosperity
upon hundreds and thousands.

Senator Clark Of Montana has played
a neat trick. Timing his resignation so
that it should reach the hands of the
Lieutenant Governor, and not those Of
the Governor, the former promptly APP
pointed Mr. Clark to succeed himself.
AS far as the legality of the appoint
ment is concerned there is nothing to
be said. 1t is entirely a different posi-
ton from that of Quay of Pennsylvania.
But how is the Senate going to take
such a step? There may or may not
have been good reason to bride in Mon
tana it is not the first time that man
has bought his way into the councils
of a nation with good intentions. Mon
tana is by no means inhabited by an
ideal community, and its Legislators
are many of them made of very poor
material. 1t may have been, and prob
ably was, a case of money fighting
money Had Senator Clark's opponent
got in, the objections to him might have
been as strong as to Senator Clark. But
the Senate is not likely to consider this
Bribery has been proven; the Senator
lost his seat on account of the exposure,
and 1t would be a most extraordinary
thing to now allow him to take his seat

THE FIGHT.

1t is extraordinary how much interest
centers in a prize fight. The result of
Jeffries- Corbett fight was of far more
interest in a large majority than the
capture Of Kroonstadt by Lord Roberts,
on peSce congress, a temperance rally
in the States or an ecumenical synod
in Rome. The modern Anglo-Saxon is
not so far removed from the cultivated
gentlemen who used to attend the
arena in the imperial city. 1t is ques-
ton of degree.
The gentlemen and ladies who atted-
ed the gladitorial games were not so
far wrong in their love of sport as we
consider them. AS long as the game
was played with fairness, there was
not so much to be found fault with it.
But the element of unfairness was in
troduced, and the lust of blood was
pandered to, and instead Of fair fight
ing the shouting multitudes were treat
ed to mere massacre, whether of beasts
or of men. The hopeless result of the
modern Spanish bull fight is the sur
vival Of the debauched gladatOrial
games, born OF the. Latin race.
On the other hand, the Anglo-saxon,

The speeches of Secretary Root and
Senator Lodge are construed to mean
an aggressive war spirit. 1t is not nee
essarily so. But undoubtedly both
the statesmen want to impress upon
Congress the necessity of keeping pace
with the world powers. There is no
greater certainty of maintaining peace
than being prepared to enforce it. A
navy cannot be created in a day. 1t
was only the patient preparation of
years that gave the United States her
supremacy over Spain. With territory
in Asia, in the mid-Pacific and the Gulf
of Mexico, a considerable fleet must be
kept up and the prospects of a long
guerilla warfare in the Philippines de-
mands a military force of much larger
dimensions that sufhced formerly. II
is this state Of preparedness to enforce
words when uttered that the Secretary
and Senator are aiming at.

ROBERTS SUCCESSFUL.

Roberts is showing his military skill
by the adroit way he has handled his
troops. He has won his victories more
by maneuvering than by direct lighting.
As far as the Orange Free State is
concerned, as an Independent republic,
il has ceased to exist and the war is
over. The Orange Free Staters have
given up the struggle and are returning
TO their homes, while the Transvaal
Beers have retired into their own terri
tory.
The Orange Free Staters made a SER
ious error, led into it by President Steyn
and the little oligarchy which surround
ed him. The dream was a Dutch en-
pire in South Africa, and for time
there was a vision of it. The Free Stat
tiers had absolutely no quarrel with the
British. They had been living on per-
fectly amicable terms. Many of the
Free Staters were of English or Scotch
descent, but they were overawed by the
Transvaal Beers.
1t looks very much as if the latter
part of the campaign might be conclud-
ed in a comparatively short time. The
long wait at BloemfOntein was made in
order to gather transport, and fit out
the soldiers with winter clothing. When
his army was thoroughly ready, Lord
Roberts began his final move and it is
being made unchecked. No minor con-
sideration or side issue has been allow
ed to interfere with the main plan. The
Beers might carry on raids. They might
cut off outlying forces, but these were
minor details; the blow to be struck
must be crushing. 1t must be abso-
lutely decisive, and it is such blow
which Lord Roberts has prepared. AS
! things are now it does not look as If
there will be a long defence of Pre-
/ toria.

The latest news from Mafeking has
set all the world admiring the skill and
determination Of Baden Powell and his
little band of heroes. To have captured
an attacking force was indeed Won
derful piece of work. The latest rumor
is that Mafeking is relieved. But re-
lieved or not, Baden-Powell has won for
himself a niche among the military
heroes of the age. He has fought gal
liant fight against great odds, and has
inspired his subordinate officers, and
the rank and file with his own endur-
ance and determination. 1t is one thing
to have courage ones self, and totally
different thing to keep it in others on a
diet of handful of coarse meal and an
ounce of meat a day. Hunger is a ter
rible sapper of courage. y.
