for it, and left the fight to Hilo for
what was left. Delegate Estep made a
two-minute speech in presenting the
name of Charles Williams, referring to
the fact that Williams had in his veins
the blood of Hawaii as well as that of
Revolutionary stock, and that he had
risen by his own efforts to his present
prominence; had fitted himself alone
and over midnight oil to practice law,
and that he was Republican in prin-
ciple long before there was ever any
Republican party in Hawaii, or any
prospects of there ever being. and also
that he was q native as well as English
scholar, as was evidenced by his work
| in interpretingfor the convention. None
OF the other names was put forward In
a set speech. When nominations were
closed the following were before the
convention: Charles Williams of Ha-
makua, James Nation of Laupahoe-
hoe, James Lewis of Hilo, Koahou OF
Hilo, Harry Rycroft of Puma, and Kea-
wehaku of Hilo. When the vote was
counted Williams had 40. Rycroft 80,
Lewis and Nation each 35. and koa-
hou and keawehaku each z. Keawe-
haiku came forward and made a neat
speech in moving that the nomination
of the four highest be made unanimous,
and pledging himself to support the
| ticket. Mr.. Keawehaku was unknown
to many of the delegates before the vot-
ling commenced, or he would no doubt
have made better showing. By ju-
dicious grooming and mixing" for two
years he would no doubt land the nomi-
nation in 1902 with ease.
The candidates present made speeches
of thanks and placed themselves solid
| ly on the platform. Lewis was not
present On motion the secretary was
instructed to cast the vote of the con-
yention for j. d. Paris and H. L. Hol-

This was matter of form, as the whole

tend. 1t was whispered rather loudly
that Mr.. Smith would have to do con-
siderable explaining before he would be
very deep in the councils of the Repub-
licans of his own district.
The platform was then read, and amid
enthusiasm. fully adopted and candi-
dates required TO stand on it.
Nominations for Senator were then
declared in order. Mr.. Walker placed
the name of A. B. Loebenstein before
the convention, and John CT. Jones per-
formed a like duty for C. r. Blacow.
Il. ID. Baldwin made a speech in plac-
ing before the convention the name of
s. L. Desha. and in seconding the nomi-
nation John u. Smith informed the
delegates of the citizens meeting of
Hilo and it's desires. Judge Komau, of
Puma, said he was sorry to hear of Mr..
Desha's name going in; that he was
sure il was not best for Mr.. Desha's
interest, or in the interest of his church
and cause, as the HALL Church was
composed of members with all shades
of opinion. and the only possible result
would be discord and dissension in the
church, and he begged that the
proposer OF his name would withdraw
it. Other Hawaiian members spoke In
the same vein, but Mr.. Baldwin stood
by his guns and refused to be STAN.
peded by anything but votes. The chair
appointed Charles Swain and Judge
Komau tellers. and the vote proceeded
and resulted in Loebenstein's receiving
! "a, Blacow 20, and Desha Il votes. Or

stein was made unanimous. Blacov
made speech thanking the convention
for the honor, pledged himself to stans
