matters Of strictly Hawaiian signifi-
canoe there is but little doing these
days at the national capital. Never
theless there have been impressive
events here in recent days. The rear
guard OF host Of Grand Army men is
just disappearing, after a weeks pro-
gram OF historic interest. The decision
of the veterans to meet next year at
San Francisco will not be without mo-
ment to Hawaiians for II brings one of
those great encampments within a few
days travel OF Honolulu. The Califor-
MIA people came here to make deter
mined fight and they won handsomely.
II is sixteen years since the Grand
Army met on the Pacific Coast and al
ready plans are being made to assure
this next encampment being a grand
affair.
Interest is quickening decidedly in
the congressional campaign, as the
election is now only three weeks dis
tant. The nominations for both par
ties are now made and the issue is
squarely Joined. The Democrats are
fighting with great earnestness and APP
parently they have more hope of win
the chances are generally against them.

Delegate Dennis Flynn, of Oklahoma, |
who, some weeks ago, visited Honolulu, !
was in Washington yesterday on his |
way TO Connecticut, where lie is max |
ing several stump speeches. Since re-
turning from Hawaii he has been
stumping in Oklahoma where they have
q vigorous campaign, in which state
hood for the territory is ar important
factor.
Several of the Delegates friends were
highly entertained by his accounts of
his trip to the mid-Pacifc territory |
and Of the splendid hospitality of the |
people out there. TT is the most de- |
| Ightful spot i ever visited" said he, !
"and the people are the most hospita |
bic. We made a distinct acquisition to
the United States, when we annexed
those islands"
Mr.. Flynn told with much detail his |
trip to the mouth of the volcano on an
automobile and how much he enjoyed |
that trip. He noted many facts re- |
gardng the Industrial developments of
the islands, although his visit was not
Yrimarily for that. Il was struck with |
the difference of opinion there regard |
ing the Orientals. On the Pacific coast |
the people are hostile to the Cinnamon |
and friendly to the japanese. In Ha
wall the people have little to say in
praise of the Japanese as laborers but
feel very kindly towards the Chinese" |
OF politics in the islands Mr. Flynn |
had some observations to make. Il
told them" he declared, that l am
friend of Delegate Wilcox but / also
informed them that if they want some
thing done for Hawaii in Congress they
want to elect n straightout Democrat
OF straightout Republican. Tnde-
pendents and others who do not belong |
to either Of the great parties cut no ice
in the American Congress-
Delegate Flynn is member of the |
Committee on Territories of the House |
and has been consistent friend of the |
Territory of Hawaii. He has recently |
brought his family here from Oklahoma
and put mis- children to school here.
