COMPROMISE HAS
BEEN AFFECTED
REFORM AND WILCOX FACTIONS
MAKE MUTUAL CON-
CESSIONS.
BOTH PARTIES AFRAID OF A
SPLIT.
Home Rulers Pass The Morning in
Recesses- Nakookoo Was Behind
With His Minutes.

At the opening of the convention Sec
Tetary NakoOkoO was absent and a re-
cess was taken until he arrived, nc
limit being set for time. Cigars and
pipes came out and the convention took
matters easily.
An understanding was arrived at last
night between the reform party lead
ers and the Wilcox faction by which
the reform party achieved a decided
victory. The amendments of the con-
stitution providing for regulations of
precinct clubs, district committees and
their proper representation will be
adopted, but the present officers, with
kalauokalani as chairman, are to be
allowed to remain. This of course is
only pending for good faith so that the
advantage scored by the Wilcox fac
tion is only a hollow conquest of a
small point. The reform party carry
their point of representation for the
electorate at last defeating centraliza-
tion.
Later a recess until II was declared
giving Nakookoo time to get UP his
minutes of the previous day. At 1856
Nakookoo arrived but Kalauokalani
announced a further recess of thirty
minutes, stating that other important
matters needed attention.

stitution and bylaws then met sanar-

FOES OF THE LANTANA SUFFRAGE QUESTION
ONE REASON FOR REPUBLICAN
RESERVATIONS.
Committee. viii Disavow Sentiments in
Favor of Further Restrictions of the
Franchise.

The remarks of Governor Dole in
Washington, before Congressional
committee, that suffrage in Hawaii
should be further restricted" than as
TO Asiatics, Is said to be responsible for
some OF the designations from the Re
publican Territorial Central commit
tee and members are casting about for
a means Of dlsavowlng such sentiments
even though they were expressed by the
Governor. w. j. COelhO is the latest
man to resign. At the asst meeting he
IS said to have had a resolution roast
ing Dole up his sleeve, but he did not
present it.
The Acknowledgement of the native
is to be Home Rule bugaboo for the
campaign. 1t is regarded by many as
the Home Rulers best war cry that
Jhe RepublicanS want to disfranChiSe
the Hawaiians and the Republicn COM
mlttee Will take some means of coming
out plainly against such a policy. A
resolution TO his effect was passed
some time ago and sent to Washington,
but the subject has come up again now
and new action will probably be taken.
John 9. Lane, vice-Chairman of the
committee, stated this morning that
he had not decided yet whether he
would remain on the committee he will
decide what to do, and the result of his
deliberations may be a letter to the
committee, in which he will take de-
clded stand on the suffrage question
and may withdraw his resignation.
Lane said this morning that the suf-
frage matter was one which the Repub-
lcans ought to consider at once. 1T
is easy to see already" he said that
the Home Rule campaign cry is going
to be that we are trying To take the
ballot away from the Hawaiians.
Though the Governor may have made
the remark attributed to him, the party
is not in favor of any such policy, and
it is the duty of the committee to come
out strongly on the subject Wilcox
is already using the proposition as a
vote-catching idea, and we are sure
to have to meet it all through thS cam
paign. 1t is enough to defeat the party
if not properly met at once. The Re
publicans are not in favor of restricting
the franchise and should emphat tically
say so without delay"
The selection of a chairman will be
one of the matters taken up at the
next meeting A G.. NJ. Robertson. one
of the new members is talked of Tor the
position. A. /. G. Atkinson has also
been mentioned. Both are recognized
as hard party workers who are on to-
the ropes. The new chairman will take
hold just as the work is beginning, ana
will have to devote considerable time
to the matter. J. +. Cooke declared in
favor of Lane, if the latter stays on
the committee.

ORIGIN OF THE 'RIKSHA
CAPTAIN F. d. WALKER TELLS
OF IT.
It's Genesis From a Courtesy to an
Invalid-The Idea Took With the
Japanese-Its Spread.

EDITOR STAR: Noticing an article
in your paper of Tuesday last, anent
the inventor of the Jinricksha in Jap
an, permit me to give you a clear ac-
count of the invention and inventor.
In the latter part of the year 1869,
was in business in Yokohama, and as
my knowledge of the Japanese langu-
age was limited to a fey words, EN-
ployed, when necessary, the Rev. Mr..
Goble as my interpreter. Mrs. Goble
was a confirmed invalid, and could
walk about only a little.
Happening to see in j. r. Black 5
auction room an English bath chair for
sale, L mentioned the circumstance to
Goble, telling him it would do for Mrs.
Goble, as a few coolies could pull it
along. L purchased it and presented it
to him. but the machine was so heavy
when it came to drag it up hill, few
extra coolies had to be employed.
Mr.. Goble was a bit of a carpenter
and possessed a fair share of .ingenu-
ity, so he took off the heavy leather
covered frame, and the forward wheel
with all its attachments, and made
two shafts so that a man might get
inside them. This reduced the weight
by two-thirds, a light awning was put
then on the body, and that answered
very we'll Olle ellldn was SuIIClent 10
pull it along and two would pull it up
Heights hill.
Shortly after he placed a front bar
to connect the shafts together.
"A carpenter who had a small place
in HomOro did the work, and that was
the first "Jinriky."
The Japanese were quite taken with
the outfit and they started in with a
vengeance, and now it is not only the
national conveyance of Japan, but also
in China and India.
Mr.. Goble was an American, born in
Massachusetts employed as a Baptist
missionary-Original occupation, a
shoemaker. But as he seldom got a
remittance from his church in Ameri-
ca he was glad to do anything to pro-
cure subsistence for himself. wife
and two daughters.
Mrs. Goble had a small school where
she taught japanese children, and Mr..
Goble, with the aid of Otormo Sada-
giro, made the first translation of the
Gospel of st. Matthew.
AS the Japanese are claiming the in

write these few remarks to place cred

BUENcAMINo AND THE PEN.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-Senor Blu
encamino, who has been sojourning in
this country today called upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt and requested the pen
with which he signed the Philippine
government bill, as he desired to pre-
serve it and eventually place it in
some public library in the Philippines.
The President already had given the
pen to Senator Lodge. but as he hap
pened to be present at the time, he pre-
sented it to Senor Buencamino. When
the latter left the White House he re-
marked that the Philippine bill initiat-
ed self-government in the islands. He
also paid a high tribute TO President
Roosevelt.

Root,o course, makes no mention or the $20,O00,OO0 originally paid to Spain, nor has he any way of figuring that portion of the cost which has been incurred by the navy department and which is not small. Last May,
 however, the secretary of the navy threw some light on the situation by sending to congress a statement the total of which aggregated, in round numbers, $20,OOO,OOO. It may, there fore, be safely stated that the Philip pine islands have cost this country
 up to date, $210,OO0,OO0, which would mean, exclusive of the purchase price, an annual expenditure of S50,O00,0O0.
 So stupendous are these figures that they convey but little to the mind of the average man, but when it is cal culated that the islands have cost ev- cry man, woman and child in the
 United States $3, or, to the breadwin- ner who has five mouths to feed, $15, some conception of the expense of be- ing world power'' can be arrived at,

Crop news is generally favorable, says Henry Clews in his discussion of the trade outlook. Rain has fallen in abundant quantities over large sec tions of the country and the condition of corn is excellent; wheat is improy- ing and cotton holds it's own we'll Thus far the crop situation is perfect ly satisfactory, and the outlook is for a good export demand, considering the less favorable accounts from abroad Should the haryests realize present promise the somewhat expected indus trial reaction may be postponed anoth- CT year. The effect of short crops has been felt in more ways thanaone dur- ing the past year, but nowhere more distinctly than in our export trade, which during the last twelve months declined over $92,OOOO0O, while our trade balance was $167, 7,S0O,OOO less than a year ago. Another season of drift in this direction might bring very l inconyenient consequences to the for eign exchange market. Our bankers have made large borrowings in Flu rope, and in the present state of cred lit expansion in the United States it would suit us much better to shir larger quantities of breadstuffs and cotton than gold Fortunately the in dications at present are that relief will come in this form.

HAD A CLOSE CALL


 I was sitting by the red-hot stove in a New England village inn when a citizen who had been out west and re- turned a week or so before my arriY- al entered the office and was at once asked to relate some of his adven- lures.
 He started off with a story about an avalanche sliding off a mountain and burying 10000 head of cattle under the stones and dirt. He was there and saw it all, and he was the one who carried the bad news to the own CT of the cattle.
 There were looks of doubt on the faces of some of his listeners when he concluded, and one of them finally asked of me:
 Stranger, do you think such a thing possible?'
 Ut is not impossible" I answered.
 "But wouldn't at least one of those cattle have got away?" Mot necessarily so. Their tails might have got twisted around the bushes, you see" ''So they might Did you see any twisted tails. Hiram?' | Hundreds of lem, but I forgot to say so.'
 'HThen that makes it all right, and hope you'll go ahead and tell us about Iniuns''
 Next morning the story teller paid me an early call, and. after shaking hands, he said: Stranger, want to thank you fo1 twistin' them cattles' tails around the bushes in the way you did. I got toe big an avalanche and too many cattle and if you hadn't clipped in as you did I might have been turned out o1 the church for liar.''

It is quite a part of the irony of fate that the republican party, which 1n-
 dulged in so much gratuitous 1evity at the lack of harmony in the democratic
 ranks, at the beginning of the fifty
 seventh congress, should find itself, at congress, more hopelessly divided than
 were ever the democrats. The message of President Roosevelt urging the re-
 publican senators to get together on his policy of Cuban reciprocity accom- plished nothing and the two confer
 ences which have followed have served
 no purpose but to more clearly demon strate to the country the hopeless di- vision of the party. It is worthy of
 remark that at neither meeting of the
 senators was there any suggestion of
 promoting harmony between the ad- herents of the sugar trust and the beet in the words of Senator Hanna, tour
 party will suffer at the polls in the coming election.'' While, at the elev-
 enth hour, MT Hanna came to the res cue of the policy of the administration, l it has for some time been an open secret at the Capitol that had the sen- ator from Ohio thrown his influence, as chairman of the national committee, l into the balance and worked for reci- l procity instead of indulging in much quiet. enjoyment at the discontinue of
 the president, the result would have
 been different. As it is, all hope of any
 action looking to the relief of Cuba at lthe present session has been aban doned.
