~ @EPURLICANS last evening, in the
- precinct clubs of the Islands
~ nominated their delegates 10 the
Territorial convention, and the
members OF the various district COM
mittees. The meetings in the main
were harmonious and the little differ
enees which were apparent earlier in
the week were buried when it came to
the putting up of candidates and there
was degree of unity which was suff1-
cient to give great hopes for the fu-
ture.
There were several fights which look
ed ugly early in the evening, when
some of the inconsiderate of the MEM
bers who had found that their friends
ened fight. and in one instance man
I-who went into caucus pledging him
self to support the ticket there named
permitted his name TO be put on the
ticket and some of his friends even
narned him for the Territorial conven-
ton. The Fifth district was expected
to furnish evidences of some heated
discussions, but all quieted down and
the nominations made are only occa-
sionally based upon factional lines, but
as many good men as possible were
put on the tickets, so that the voters
would have q great latitude OF choice.
From the indications there will be a
convention on the first Monday of Sep
tember which will be composed of
many business men, but many more of
the younger bloods of the Territory
The tendency is for the young men to
come out and make fights for the seats
where their fathers sat a few years ago
and this element must be dealt with
in almost every precinct of the Island
OF Oahu.
The factional lines have been SO near
iy wiped out that in some of the fight
ing districts there were men put on
the tickets whose leanings were not
known to those who named them. and
the results were that the conventions
will be made up of as many men who
have heretofore taken no part in po-
iiticaI fights as of those who have been
active. Some of the men who have
recently resigned from the Republican
Territorial committee are again candi-
dates for seats therein, but in other
instances they are content to stay out
Keunedy refused to have his name be-
fore the meeting of the second precinct
ofsaae fourth district and Stewart was
equally insistent that he be left out in
the seventh of the fifth. Wright Is a
candidate, as is Lane

The meeting of the first precinct of
the Fourth district was held in shell
ter tent at the corner or the WMklh
road and King street The members
of the club were out in force and there
was a long discussion over the metnoos
of procedure Some urged that there
shoIld be in no case men put on both
ricketts,. and had some backing In
this But the members had no great
bias on the subject and it died nat
urai death and ambitious ones were
still TO get into the neid eVery "heFe'
