Free Delivery Superintendent Will
Inspect System Installed
in Town.

]. w. Erwin, assistant superintendent
of free delivery of the postal service,
will arrive here from San Francisco on
Friday to make an inspection of the
free delivery system which was in
stalled in Honolulu a year ago. Mr..
Erwin was hopeful then that the bene-
fits of free delivery would be appre-
ciated by the residents of Honolulu, and
it is believed that his report to his de-
partment will be encouraging.
Since Mr.. Erwins visit here last year
he has given a number of lectures on
Hawaii to audiences on the coast and
in the interior states, accompanying
the descriptive part by colored slides
of scenes of the islands. Several per-
sons who have been present at these
lectures state that Mr.. Erwin has
neither exaggerated nor praised too
highly the tourist attractions of Ho-
nolulu and the outlying islands. While
here he will probably give lectures, one

TREASURE CRAFT

Honolulu People in the Scheme
Get Schooner Herman Out
of Trouble.

There is joy on the treasure-hunting
schooner Herman, and according to a
sailor on the vessel there's more
money in the cabin than the captain
can shake a stick at"
All this prosperity on the Herman
is due to the fact that the libels held
against that vessel by various Homo
lulu business firms for goods supplied
to the schooner have been settled, and
the craft can now proceed to sea, to
treasure island. or any other place, for
all anyone here cares.
Back of the settling of the libels
against the vessel there is story to
the effect that the money TO settle them
was secured in Honolulu, through sew
eraI people here becoming interested in
the treasure-hunting scheme and ad-
vancing money to the schooner.
It is whispered that the treasure
scheme has been explained to several
people here, and that they have con-
sidered that chances of big gains out
weigh the risks they run in putting up
the money.
The Herman will now sail within a
few days. ostensibly for Sydney, but
possibly while making the trip there
will take in the island where the treas
ure is said to be buried.

the situation in, the Philippines, and
concerning the death of James Sims.
DR.. Lindley is in charge of the Santiago

here, en- route home on the Buford.
The latter is dated July %. DR.. Lindley
says: "The situation is grave indeed.

the water supply of Manila had become

among 1000 prisoners (natives) confined
in Bilibid prison, and some of the
wards have two and three guards sta
toned in them. Americans in many
parts of the city have been infected.
We received seven In twelve hours on

thought he might pull through, but the
disease was too much for him. A
heavy typhoon is on today and with
the accompanying hard rain it is hoped
cholera will disappear. If not, there is
no telling where it will end.
None of my employees have become
infected, though I have nearly a hun

This exemption requires constant
vigilance, and is no doubt due to the

hoped by taking up the matter nearest
to them he would win them to the par

one which would bring the greatest

he had two years ago been a member

platform and then gave way to the rep

did not attribute defeat to the equivo-
cal position then taken, but he thought
such action again would mean defeat.
He did not want to take the onus of
making the mistake of trying to keep
the people from having their wish,
though he had misgivings as to the
results of the enactment of such laws.
He said it might mean greater taxation,
but if so he was willing to undertake
the payment for if the Republican par
ty did not give the people what they
wanted, they would get it some other
way. AS to the claim that a triple set
of officials would have to be maintain

made were sufficient to give TO each ISL

The central government he declared,
was here on sufferance. He said the
Congress had simply permitted it to
exist until the people might provide
for a better system, and if the people
lid not do it, it would be done for them.
The existing system he said was that
which had been ruling for the past
half century, the only change being in

exist in America he declared and the
change must come.

Fifth District Committee Decides to
Request Clubs to Work

Suggestions as to Nominees for the Various
Legislative Nominations Are Requested
From People to Aid in Selections.

from the Fifth District as Representa-
& tives of the Republican party, and
Whereas: We believe it to be in the
interest OF our party to appeal to local
pride and to stimulate local work, and
Whereas: We believe that by the mu-
tual assistance of all the precincts each
can succeed, now therefore be it
Resolved, That we recommend the
following appOrtionment of the six rep
resentatives among the various pre-
cincts, based upon the Republican
strength as shown at the last election:
First. From the first and second pre-
cincts, one representative.
Second. From the third fourth and
fifth precincts one representative
Third. From the sixth precinct, one
representative.
Fourth. From the seventh precinct,
one representa- tive.
Fifth. From the eighth and tenth
precincts, one representative.
Sixth. From the ninth precinct, one
representative.
And we further recommend that each
precinct club shall, on or before the
5th of September, meet and suggest a
candidate for the House and a first and
second choice for candidates for the
Senate on the Republican ticket, all of
which may or may not be accepted by
the District Committee.
In support of his resolution Mr.. Nc
Candless said that the following was
the Republican vote two years ago, as
used in the preparation of the schedule
of the new divisions: first and second
precincts, 109; third, fourth and fifth,
122; sixth, 1O2; seventh, 172; eighth and
tenth, 1S9; ninth. 149.
There was considerable talking be-
fore the resolution was finally adopted
as given, and the remarks were ali di-
rected at making it so read that the
precincts should not be led to believe
that the men so named would be placed
upon the ticket without question. Sena-
tor Carter, James Low and J. L. Holt
each took hand in perfecting the
resolution, and it went through with
out a single vote against 1t.
AS soon as this was done the prin-
cipal business of the evening as set
forth in the call was brought up by
J. D. Avery. He had prepared a series
Of resolutions, which set forth that the

After two hours debate last evening
the Fifth district committee placed up
on it's executive committee the task OF
stirring up the various precinct clubs
to activity, so that when the delegates
to the Territorial convention shall come
together next Monday, they will have
a series of resolutions before them,
which may aid them in the framing of
a platform.
This result was attained only after a
bit of sharp talking. in which an at
tempt was made to declare in favor of
the fourteen propositions submitted,
with a resolution that the planks should
be contained in the Territorial plat
form, in the opinion of Fifth district
committeeman. The sentiment finally
prevailed that this kind of platform
making was outside the province of the
committee, and that the only power
to take such action lay in the hands
of the clubs which chose the dele
gates.
The work of the meeting, which was
very fully attended, every member be-
ing present in person or by proxy, was
all along the lines of getting closer to
the people. The only definite action
was that which will result in the bring
ing the work of the party into the
hands of the precinct clubs all along
the line. There was no discussion of
candidates, despite the fact that many
members of the committee came to the
meeting feeling that there would be an
airing of the senatorial situation. The
only thing in this line was the passage
of the resolution which asks the various
precincts to recommend the names of
candidates for both the upper and lower
houses before September 5th, for the
consideration of the committee, when
it shall meet as a nominating conven-
ton.
There was some little amusement fur
nished when the meeting was called to
order, and when Judge Kaulukou pre- 1
sented two proxies. Later proxies were
presented however which left the tenth
precinct man without any standing in
the meeting, and he spent the evening
in looking on. After the disposition of
the matter of the Portuguese confer I
ence committee, and the report from
the committee on rules that a rough /
draft had been made but no finished
rules were ready for the committees
action, L. L. McCandless introduced
the following resolution, there being
several suggestions which were en-
bodied in it and accepted by the maker:
Whereas: The responsibility falls up
IN this body of selecting six candidates

votes in the Fourth, would agree to
this, as Lane has SO many personal
friends that it was believed that no
other from the Fifth could have the
nomination and yet keep such a de-
gree of peace as to insure the entire
vote coming out. Some of Huddy's s
friends have threatened that they will
bolt the convention if he was not nam
ed, but this was not taken seriously.
Yesterday afternoon, however, it de-
veloped that the fight on Achi had
reached such a stage that the Huddy
people announced their ultimatum
that the fight would go into the con-
vention unless Achi withdrew, when
they would take down the doctor.
There are still negotiations going on
for the Fourth district members do not
like to have the troubles of the Fifth
sent over to them for settlement.
McCandless' friends declare that in
the event of a declaration on the floor
of the joint convention that if Huddy
and Lane are not both nominated nei-
ther one will accept, this will mean
his nomination for the senate. There
will be no settlement for some time
but the leaders do not despair Of get
ting the contending forces together
and maintaining all of them as Repub
licans to the end.
CUPID MAKES MANY FRIENDS.
Reports of the progress of the cam
paign of education being carried on on
the island of Hawaii by Prince Cupid
and his committee are of the most en-
nature to mis- followers here.
Senator Kanuha, who came back, says
that everywhere there is the greatest
for Cupid, and that the
people are anxious that he viii de-
clare himself for Delegate.
The executive committee of the party
1ow has arranged for a meeting on
evening, at which the Prince
nay make his report. There will be

Election Matters.

The latest development in the city
election matter has been the serving
of n notice ON the election board,
which consists Of the mayor and police
judge, against the issuance of election
certificates to the successful candi-
dates. The point made is that the
election is Illegal because of the
swearing In of voters when the char
ter makes no provision for this but
insists that voters shall be registered.
On the other hand it is claimed that
this requirement Of the charter Is un.
constitutional. The board will issue
the certificates The instrument in
question is merely a notice and carries
none of the weight or authority of an
injunction.
