SENATOR HOAR EXPLAINS TO
AN HAWAIIAN PORTUGUESE

THE following correspondence be-
4 tween a Portuguese resident of
Hawaii, and Senator Hoar. of
Massachusetts, explains itself:
Honolulu, T. H, Jan 10, 1902
Hon. George F. Hoar, United States
Senator. Washington, d. C.
My Dear Sir-I have just received
the Portuguese newspapers of New
Bedford and Boston, Mass From the
latter l am a citizen, and a graduate
from her university. In these newspa-
pers 1 have read the following state
ment:
The senior Senator of the United
States Senate, Hon. George F. Hoar
has maliciously assailed the manhood
of the sons of Portugal, qualifying
them as unfit TO enter into the Ameri
can continent"
l read this statement with great as
tonishment and sorrow, made from a
man of letters. and from a man to
whom 1 have had great respect, and
occupies an exalted position, whose
purpose ought to be only to advocate
the interests of equal rights to all
American citizens, composed of all ma
tionalitieS.
Permit me to say. as a Portuguese,
I protest against such arbitrary and
imprudent language against the Por-
tuguese people in general. On special
occasions / have been an active instru-
ment among my people helping the
Republican party, of which / am a
true believer upon principles, and your
honor is our representative from the
grand State of Massachusetts. From
it has been born great men, whose
names are the living stars in Ameri-
can history, and have honored their
fellow citizens with the best ability
in Congress. On several occasions L
have heard your honor and your col
leagues. as well as other great men
from the State of Massachusetts, but
never have 1 heard or read such state
ments as yours. forgetting that the
Portuguese people fought like heroes
during the civil war. sacrificing their
lives for the liberty you and 1 and all
are enjoying.

MANY WANT TO
RUN A KAMAAINA

There promises to be a fairly lively
meeting of the Republican Fourth Dis
trict Convention this afternoon at 3:3o
o'clock at the headquarters. owing to
many differences of opinion as to the
course which should be followed in the
matter of a nomination.
There are now several names mention
ed of men whom it is desired to run for
the place in the event OF a nomination.
There has been quite a boom for John
Hughes, OF the railroad company, but he
is thought TO be ineligible. from the
same cause which has put Prince Cupid
out of the running.
Yesterday there were many republicans
who were inclined to think If fight has
to be made il should be carried on by
some kamaaina, ike Mark Robinson or
John Ena. There seems a probability
that the plan of delaying action until
there has been a canvass made will pre-
vail, especially as the Home Rulers are
waiting as well.

GOSPEL TENT
COLLAPSES

During the wind storm which came
up last night about IL o'clock, the Cos
pei tent on Fort street was subjected
to it's full force, and soon the sides
gave way, being torn from their fast
enings. This allowed the wind to have
a free range of the interior. and in
a few minutes the ropes holding the
tent to the pole broke, and the tent
buiging and Tapping came down as far
as the yardarm, where it caught. The
wind played havoc with the interior
arrangement of chairs and tables. A
couple o. men worked their way in un-
der the canvas and managed to drop
the tent to the ground. where it swish
ed around during the night.

1 am sure that the echo of your
thrilling words have excited the good
spirit of the Portuguese people.
through all the colonies of the United
States, even in these islands of the
Pacific. where they have worked in
such a way that the American people
have become rich, through their honest
labor. The Portuguese people are not
assassins, or thieves, or even vaga-
bonds, to be unfit to enter the Ameri-
can continent and it's possessions. Let
the official statistics of the State of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Illinois,
California and others speak for them
selves, and your honor will not find
their names recorded as breakers of
the law. OF course, in all nationalities
there are exceptions.
We deplore such misleading state
rnents from a statesman, as your hon
or is credited, against people who
have shown up their propriety, and
who deserve to be entitled to the credit
of the glory and American freedom.
Mr.. Senator, 1 am waiting for ex-
planation concerning your statements
in writing, as you may desire to your
justice. I am, yours sincerely.

NV Dear Sir-I have your letter of
January 18th. The story to which you
aIlude is absolutely absurd and pre-
posterous. 1 have a letter from very
influential Portuguese gentleman in
Boston who had done a good deal to
excite indignation in the minds of the
Portuguese people in consequence Of
what 1 had said, expressing his regret
and that he is satisfied that the whole
thing was mistake. The story came
from an interview with me sent by

was printed, putting in some commas
which utterly changed the sense.
