Residence Damaged by Fire.

The Barker residence on North Gar

one of the editors of the Journal was
discovered to be on fire Tuesday night
about 10 o'clock. Mr.. and Mrs. Merrill
were away from home at the time, and

a dresser. The furniture and house
were damaged to the extent of about

THE REPUBLICANS
Will Probably Nominate Candidates
for the Legislature

There is some speculation in local
political circles at present as to
whether the Republicans will put out
candidates for the Legislative and
county offices. From what can be
learned, the opinion seems to prevail
that it would not be advisable to
oppose the Democratic nominees for
county offices, but candidates will
probably be put in for the Legislature.
There will be a meeting of the Repub-
lican Executive Committee next Mon
day, at which time the matter will
be brought up.

The Democrats are not prepared just
yet to be swallowed by Wilcox. He is
carrying on the tactics that were
outlined in these columns sometime
ago. He is willing to sacrifice anything
if he can get the endorsement of either
of the great political parties for the
delegateship. He has absolutely no
political honor, and no political princi-
pie. He would sacrifice Kalauokalani,
Caypless, and any others who have
been useful TO him, if he can only get
the nomination of others than the
Home Rulers. He has offered himself
on the same terms to the Republicans,
as he has to the Democrats, and was
promptly turned down. Even If the
representative heads of the Democracy
here were to swallow WilcoX's bait,
which is more than doubtful, they
would lose a majority of their rank and
file and this is clear TO such an astute
politician as Colonel Mccarthy. He
knows better than the theorists the
true feeling of the ranks, and he knows
WilcON's weakness.

Nothing shows the tergiversation Of
Delegate Wilcox more thoroughly than
mis- attitude over the fire claims. He
returned from Washington some time
before j. c.. Pratt, the special commits
sioner to that city from the Chamber
OF Commerce and told his own story.
MIR. Pratt yesterday afternoon told a
very different tale. 1t is interesting to
recall what Wilcox has said here upon
the subject and to compare it with
what Mr.. Pratt has said.
In his first address at Foster Hall,
which Wilcox made almost Immediate
ly after his return, he denounced the
fire claims as an imposition upon the
Federal Government and said it was
a scheme Of the "black hearted" mis-
sionaries. However, as he found out
later that the money was to go into the
pockets of 1.-The poor Hawaiians," he
was willing to put his conscience in his
pocket, and would work for this APP
preparation. After he had been here
for some little time, and had discover
ed that be could not hold his own par
~, which split because Of his dishonest
dealing, he began to see he had made a
mistake about the fire claims. He had
neglected his work in this direction, as
he had in every direction, and another
had labored hard to get the appropria-
ton through, remaining at his post,
when Wilcox was rushing back to in
sure his reelection. Such thing as
the facts being against him was not
going to trouble the delegate from Ha-
wall. If the facts did not agree with
his statement so much the worse for
the facts. He has stated that he could
make the Hawaitans believe anything,
and he thought he would try it once
more.
a complete change Of face was neces-
sary. New reasons had to be found.
In his later statements and in those Of
his otherself, his secretary and also Of
mis- hanger-on Caypless, he believed
in the fire claims. They were just in
every sense of the word. The fire
claims were all right, but the black
hearted missionaries had thwarted
him. He asked for three millions, and
the B. H. Missionaries asked for only
a million. Look at the liberality of
Wilcox, shouted young Kalauokalan1,
the secretary. He would have carried
his measure, but he was prevented nv
missionary tactics. Pratt had not sue
ceeded because, he had not worked
through him. Wilcox. Congress would
listen to no one save through the dele
gate. If ever man got "hoka" Pratt
was the man, &c, &c, &c. Why re-
peat the sickening details of speeches
made without truth or honesty.
But mark what Commissioner Pratt
has to say. His report to the bodies
which he represented, and who sub
