| AS showing the fight which is being
made for the Delegate, the following
tletter was published recently, not only
lin the Kukoa Home Ru1a but as well
on a dodger. on which also was includ-
ed some of the exposes of the MONACO
complishnent of duties by the repre-
sentative of his people. The letter is
dated Washington, June nth. and the
article reads as follows:
I'VE are in receipt of our letters from
the Delegate and his secretary where
in they state that the Congress or
| America will adjourn on the 18th OF
the present month. and that they will
return Immediately upon the adjourn
nent of Congress if matters viii per-
! init, and expect to arrive by the 9th
of this month in Hawaii Nei. We also
/ by IL learn that President RooseVelt
| has signed the Delegates Senate Dill
for the apportioning of Senators. five
| Home Rulers and three Republicans
This has been a puzZling question 10
and those who hurried to Washington
with the request that four Home Rule
| Senators and four Republican Senator'S
| be seated, failed to pass. Now We say
! this, that the Delegate has been sup
| ported, while those of the other side
have no support or recognition. His
letter says:
! 1.-The bill for damages. the bubonic
plague fire claims, has been postponed
to be taken up at the next term, when
il will meet with success. The Secre-
tary of the Treasury was willing to
support this measure but has not met
with favor with Congress. for the rea-
son that bills are being forced in over
Others out of their regular order.
