written without even seeing Mr.. Fur
tado. This could not be given but
Pacheco went on at length and Fur
tado announced that he could not as
sociate himself with club which NOV
eu without legal action, and said he
would resign and he thought all Re-
publieans should do the same. When
he had left the room there was a mo-
ment's quiet for he was not alone in
his departure and then Pacheco NOV
ed the acceptance IF the designations
of Durao, Furtado and Freitas, another
Republican. This was agreed to and
there were some cheers.
Vivas then said that he was of opin-
ion that nine-tenths Of the members of
the club favored the Republican party,
at least in It's national principles, and
that they would like to vote with it,
even if the Fourth District commit
tee seemed to be not willing to give
them a chance. He thereupon intro
duced the resolution endorsing Prince
Cupid which went through without
comment.
/. M. A. Silva wanted discussion of the
question of representation for the
colony, but Vivas objected pleading for
time to cool off. Camara yielded the
chair and took the floor to move a COM
mittee of three to have full power to
act, to renew negotiations with the Re-
publican party. He said without SEEM
ing to make concessions to those who
had left the club, he wanted to say
that he would support the Repub-
lican platform; that while he could
not bind himself to act with that party
on every measure in the Legislature,
he would act for the best interests of
the entire people. He declared that
there might be few votes today but the
young Portuguese were becoming citi
zens very fast.
This motion ives accepted and NJ. A.
Silva, A. G.. Correa and j. NJ. Vivas
were chosen as the committee. A reSo-
luton was passed reaffirming the selec-
tion of Camara for the clubs represen-
tative. J. M. Vivas and J. B. Dias were
chosen as executive committeeman to
all the places made vacant by the res
ignations of the evening, after which
the meeting adjourned until Monday
evening next.
HOME RULERS DISCUSS MEN.
There was we'll attended meeting
of the Home Rulers last evening at
headquarters, and for more than two
hours there was a discussion of can
didates for the legislature, although no
action was taken.
The sentiment was expressed that I'M
til the arrival of Kalauokalani from
Hawaii there can be no definite decision
as to the men who will be put on the
ticket. There was however a long talk
over the possibilities The discussion
turned principally over the senators.
1t was the expression that the Home
Rulers should ask for the selection of
Makainai and Caypless for the sena-
tors. To this there was some slight OBJ
lection owing to the fact that there is
growing sentiment that Caypless
should be chosen for the leader of the
lower house. AS one man put it there
would be no difficulty in having ten or
twelve bills day passed with the haole
as leader.
There was music during the evening
and some dancing and the meeting
took many forms of a pleasant even
ing's entertainment. 1t is not thought
that final fusion will be accomplished
until next week.
FOR REPUBLICAN SENATORS.
The joint session of the Republican
committees of the Fourth and Fifth
districts will be held Monday evening
next at Progress hall. The meeting
promises to be one of harmony as the
decision of the Fourth district that the
Fifth shall have it's men, if there is
unity upon the choices promises to do
away with any discord.
The committees of the two districts
met yesterday and it was decided that
there should be no time lost in holding
the convention. The hall question was
left to subcommittee and that body
decided that it would be wisest to Sc
cure large and cool place for the
meeting. Waverley and Progress halls
were mentioned and the latter selected
as the best place for the meeting
There is some feeling that the nomi- |
nations for Representatives should be
left for later date, and this may be !
done. The exact time will be fixed
during the week, but it is expected that
the meetings will be held on Tuesday
or Wednesday evenings There are
long lists of men named for the lower
house on both sides of Nuuanu street /
and the outlook is for a lively fight
there.
The meeting of the committee of the
Fifth districts this evening will decide
probably not only the question as to
senator's, but as we'll that of the time
for the later meeting. There will be a
full gathering of the members as the
question of the men who are to be
recommended to the joint convention
has made lively fight and there prom
ises to be some close voting.
