al Congress appropriations for the i'm
provement of our harbors, the erection
of public buildings and for other pub
lie needs.
9. We favor the employment on all
public works of only qualified voters
and citizens of the Territory and we de-
clare that eight hours should constitute
a days work on all public works of the
Territory or its political subdivisions.
10. We favor the continuance by the
Legislature of a permanent settlement
upon eX-Queep Liliuokalani.
IL. We recognize the Importance of
diversified industries and shall endeav-
or to secure from Congress the protec-
ton of the same from foreign ccmpeti-
ton
H. We demand the revision of the
Legislature with view of adjusting
the public burden so as to be least felt
by the poor.
Is. We do not favor legislation tend
ing toward the conducting of the liquor
business by the Territorial government.
IA We earnestly request the Con-
gress of the United States to amend
that portion of Territorial act which
provides that the English language
only shall be used in the legislative pro-
ceedings, so as to permit the use of the
Hawaiian language.
Is We oppose all trusts and monop-
olies and all combinations tending to
control supplies and prices.
16 We demand liberal appropriations
for school buildings throughout the
Territory, to provide ample accommo-
dations for all children of school age.
H. We urge liberal appropriations
for the Improvement and maintenance
of the public highways throughout the
Territory.
is. The only manner in which the
country can receive the benefit of Re
publican principles is through the cleo
ton of Republican candidates. To sue
ceed at the polls it is essential that the
party be fully organized and thorough
1y united. The best method of securing
organization is through the institution
and maintenance of Republican clubs
covering every election precinct in the
Territory. We deem it therefore the
duty of every man who believes in the
doctrines of the Republican party to
become a member of the Republican
club of his election precinct and the
duty of every Republican club to
heartily and unitedly support the nom
inees of the Republican party
Relying upon the wisdom and support
waii and the guidance of Divine Provi-
dence, we shall earnestly strive to carry
out the foregoing declarations and to
do whatever else may be necessary to
perpetuate upon our soil "a government
of the people, by the people and for the
people"

To the Chairman and Members of the
Third Republican Territorial Con-
vention of Hawaii
Your committee on platform beg leave
to submit the following platform for
adoption by this conventions:
Platform of the Republican Party of
the Territory of Hawaii:
The Republican party of the Terri
tory of Hawaii, in convention assem-
bled, hereby make the following declar-
alton of principles, to the support of
which we and our candidates are pledg-
ed:
1. We proclaim anew our adherence
to the traditions and policies of the Re
publican party and announce our un-
swerving allegiance to the principles of
that party as contained in it's national
platform adopted in Philadelphia in
1900.
2. To President Roosevelt we accord
our most cordial endorsement for his
mastery administration of national af-
fairs and the faithfulness with which
ne has carried out the principles of Re
Lublicanism and we are proud of his
ability, his courage and his sturdy
Americanism.
3. We believe in the equality of all
men under just laws of their own max
ing and we shall emDhatically and un-
compromisingly oppose any restriction
or limitation Of the suffrage which we
now enjoy under the Organic Act.
f. We demand the passage of an act
by the next Legislature establishing
county governments in Hawaii model
led after the most advanced and popu-
lar systems elsewhere and containing
a clause submitting the act to the vot-
erS for ratification at special election
to be called for that purpose; and we
further demand the passage of a gen
eral municipal government act by
which such municipalities as so desire
may establish cities, towns and vii
lagos.
5. We urge Congress to appropriate
such an amount as will pay the awards
of the fire claims commission and
pledge ourselves to use every effort to
obtain such appropriation.
6. We urge continued liberal appro-
priations for the maintenance of our
unfortunate fellow citizens segregated
at Kalaupapa and Kalawao, Molokai
and for the erection and maintenance
of a suitable home for the non-leprous
children of leprous parents.
Z. We shall as speedily as possible
endeavor to secure statehood for this
Territory.
s. We demand more speedy improve
ment of our harbors, wharfage and
landing facilities throughout the Terri
tory to meet the requirements of our
rapidly increasing commerce and we
shaH strive to secure from the Nation

not only by members of the club but by
prominent Democrats of the city, the
trend of the discussion was so apparent
as to what the club wanted that men
like s. NJ. Damon, E. B. McClanahan.

ways placed principle above opportun-
ism, declared they could no longer act

would vote for and stand for Wilcox
through thick and thin. That was the
true spirit of the true Democrat. He
was glad they had fused with Wilcox,
for it meant victory. 1t meant to him
the combination of the people against
the autocratic clique who, under the
head and name of Republican, is tyran-
nizing the Territory" The Democrats
and Home Rulers would stand by the
ticket to demonstrate to Washington
and all over the United States that
these special, paid ENJOYS who have
gone to Washington and belittled the
Home Rulers and us CDemocrats), are
nobodies."
1T has been said that Wilcox did not
accomplish anything at Washington:

publicans from Boston, where the mis-
sionaries here spring from"

!, wilcox went as neither Democrat
nor Republican, but he went after beat
ing the Democrats and Republicans.
He could not affiliate with them, be-
cause they could not take him up.
Next time, however, he will go to
Washington with the support of the
Democrats and Home Rulers, and will
then have something to say
Tom Lucas said he was born Demo-
crat; that was his only reason for being
one now. He said he did not dislike
Wilcox. Wilcox was not a bad man.
He apologized for Wilcoxs failure to
get anything for Hawaii on the ground
that it was his first session and he did
not know the ropes. He understood it
was a Democrat who introduced Will
cox tc Mckinley. Mckinley was bet
ter Democrat than a Republican, in his
opinion.

Ger. ]. L. Kaulukou seconded the mo-
tion. Holstein was elected and upon
the appointment of Chairman Robert
son was escorted to the chair by Judge
Kaulukou and W. H. Rice The ap-
pearance Of Mr.. Holstein was the signal
for applause and the convention was
quite in humor to hear his opening
speech. He said:
CHAIRMAN HOLSTEIN'S ADDRESS.
Fellow Delegates and Fellow Citizens
II want to thank you most sincerely
for this distinguished honor. 1 believe
and know that it is an honor. It is a
great honor to be a temporary presiding
officer for the Republican convention.
/ shall not detain you long in what lit
tie | have to say; only to tell you that
you all know what the Republican par
ty is You all know what it has ac-
Complished; you know what are its
leaders; you know what it can do and
what it expects of each of us; and
therefore, gentlemen, we are here on
business and we must expedite busi-
ness. 1 want also to tell you that the
Republican party in these islands is
young, strong, conscious of its power,
united, popular, and growing; and, in
my best Judgment, the Grand Old Par
ty here was never in better state or
more determined to win than at the
present time. (Applause)
There is every incentive for success
and every promise of victory. The
battle cry is now for an intelligent.
economical and business-like legisla-
ture, and we claim that it can only be
effected through the medium of the
Republican party. (Applause.)
We have had Wilcox and his gang
for two years and it strikes me that
it is about time to take a tumble to
ourselves. Wilcox has been a failure
throughout. We knew at the time he
was elected a candidate for the Home
Rulers and we even went so far as to
tell the Home Rulers so, but they have
had their belly full of him. We could
bring up innumerable indictments
against that man for his ISLANDERS
against US, as well as Democrats, and
for more or less causing the Hawaiians
10 believe that the white men are their
worst enemies. All this has had a
tendency to show what the man is and
always will be-nothing but a poor and
simple demagogue. He has failed to
accomplish anything in Washington,
because, in the first place, fellow dele
gates. he did not belong to either one
of the great parties in Congress. In the
second place he was not endowed with
enough ability, we fear; and, whether
his failure lies in the fact (as he prides
HIMSELF, on his resemblance to Napol-
con so much, I do not know. In the
third place, he has always been damn
ing the missionaries, to which category

Democrats Decide to Become Home
Rulers for the Sake
of Offices.
Many Conferences Result in an Agreement to
Consolidate the Two Parties on
Spois Basis

II nMocRAcE 1o practically changed
its name last night to Home
@- Rulism, when the local party of
Democrats adopted the report of
a subcommittee through it's chairman,
Col. Mccarthy. to effect a fusion with
the Home Rule party and place r. w.
Wilcox at the head of the van as their
standard bearer. This morning q COM
mittee consisting of Col. Mccarthy,
Frank Harvey and Fred Hayselden will
confer with committee appointed by
the Home Rulers to agree upon the rep
resentation that each party will have
upon the legislative ticket Robert
Wilcox will head the fusion ticket for
delegate to Congress.
The Democrats held a meeting last
night in Waverley hall to hear the re-
port of the subcommittee appointed by
the general committee on fusion, and
adopted the report to fuse with the
Home Rulers, without much dissent. In
fact, the Democrats claimed that the
Democratic and Home Rule parties
Wilcox, if elected by the combination,
would have good deal to say in Wash
ington next session despite statements
70 the contrary thar the delegate from
Hawaii would have to be in harmony
with the Republican party which was
now in control of the administration.
When the meeting was called to or
der, Col Mccarthy for the general COM
mittee arose and stated that the sub
committee had practically effected
fusion with the Home Rulers, and ask
ed for the rejection or adoption of the
report. DR.. Noblitt moved that the re-
port of the committee be adopted, and
it was carried. The Democrats, who
had previously lambasted Wilcox to the
best of their ability, then arose and
began to tell how much they had al
ways admired him, both personally and
politically.
Col. Cornwell stated his position in
the matter, saying that the fusion with
the Home Rulers was the only thing
the Democrats could do, and although
he was a good Democrat, yet he saw no
other course open than to endorse Will
cox.
Fred Terrill said he had opposed Will
cox, but if the Democratic party join
ed~with the Home Rulers he would tell
every Hawaiian that it was the best
move that had ever been made. He
said the Republicans had taken Ian
tern TO look for a man to head the tick
ct and were doing anything Ito beat
Wilcox" To him this was insincerity.
He said this was not for the benefit of
the Home Rulers. He said the Repub-
licans had gone to Cupid and asked
whether he would run on their ticket
to beat Wilcox He wanted to know If
this was sincerity to ''us." The admin
istration at washington had promised
a Republican victory in Hawaii this
fall, and to that end have been looking
for candidate to beat Wilcox. He
thought Wilcox was the man for the
Democrats, and was an eminently prop
er man to head their ticket.
Frank Harvey spoke in similar vein
saying, when the wind blows we must
follow the wind in order to win the
day"
Charles Creighton said he heartily en-
dorsed Cornwell, and like Cornwell, the

Territorial Central Committee, thanked
the gentlemen assembled for their sup
port since the beginning of the organiz-
alton and expressed a trust that they
would turn the organization over to
their successors in at least as good
shape as they had received it. The
large attendance proved that the Re-
publican party was alive and vigorous
throughout the group. AS there was
much business to be done he would now
call for the election of temporary
president
AS soon as Mr.. Robertson called for
nominations Senator Achi was on his
feet and at once placed in nomination

can who was heart and soul in the
fight and that he was thoroughly ca

CONVENTION CALLED TO ORDER.
The convention began with applause,
for the appearance of Chairman Rob
ertson of the Republican Central Com
nlittee on the platform to call for order
was the signal for a reception. Mr..
Robertson after the reading of the con-
vention call had it translated for the
Hawaiian members.

ties are actuated with the same motive,
the same resolution, and the same de-
sire that has brought US together, and
that is to- devise ways and means
whereby Wilcox may be buried forever.
(Applauss) Since my arrival here I
have been doing little missionary
work among the Home Rulers. From
what I have seen and from what 1 have
heard, I can truthfully say that you

and the people demand, a change, and
they are going to get this change, and
when it comes to a question like this,
and g. very important one, fusion be-
tween the Democrats, the Portuguese,
the Kuokoas and the Republicans is
desirable, and 1 hope that our friends
in the minority will defer to the will
of the majority, SO that the defeat of
Wilcox may be accomplished.
