The Rev. ]. Nua Of Kawaiahao in

Il suffered from kidney trouble,
which was. l believe, caused by my

Pains in the small of my back were
one of the symptoms of my complaint.
My trouble extends back to the time
when l was % years of age, and as
am now 40, that is a considerable Pc
riod. During all this time / was sub
ject to pains in the back. They con-
tinued despite the fact that i consult

Gus remedies. No relief thus gained

quite satisfied with the result, and

in the Fourth. 1t was explained that
this was when the understanding was
that M. II. Robinson was to be the
nominee for the Senate.
j. II. Craig then moved a substitute
that there be no declaration until all
nominations had been made. Hipa
again took the floor and made in Ha-
waiian his former speech in English.
He extended his remarks at length ex-
planning how necessary 1t was to have
ticket that would appeal to the voters
at the polls The substitute motion
was carried and Immediately Craig
moved that when the committee ad
journ 1t go into executive session,
explaining that an attack had been
made on a member in an evening paper,
which also carried.
Chairman Oooke then declared that
nominations were in order and on mo-
ton it was decided that nominations
be made by precincts beginning with
the first precinct w. c. Roe for the
first precinct opened the ball with six
names submitting the following list:
Robertson Brooks. Aylett Kumalae
Andrade, Lucas. Wilson from the sec
ond added to the list c. A. Long and
Craig that of w. w. Harris. Gedge
from the fourth precinct added the
name of S. f. Chillingworth. Roe put
up the name of Atkinson and upon
representations from the fourth precinct
withdrew Robertson. This made nine
candidates for the nominations.
There was some discussion over the
name of Robertson and Richard Ivers
declaring that the party owed it tC
Robertson at least to give him the
chance to decline to make the race
therefore renewed the nomination
which was allowed to stand making
ten candidates.
II. C. Phuger moved a ten minutes

large owing to our population and rela-
tions with the United States, which lat
ter made ii necessary for US to make
payments at San Francisco. This was
a burden and is so today, as the coin
could not be transmitted there for pay

much as possible under the monarchy
and the Republic and much of it retired
later. The United States gold was the
standard and the silver was always a

increased for our relations with the

between crops when there are no suga
drafts obtainable in the natural course
the money would be shipped, but this
cannot be done. In the banking busi-
ness our customers deposit silver and
when checks are presented and our
clerks tender silver the check cannot
! be paid but in god. This creates a
growing silver reserve. In the First

Bank Examiner refused to consider Ha-

remittance goes to the Postoffice and
f deposits his money and receives an or

these come to the banks and we take
them to the Postofiice ask for gold and
often have to take Hawaiian silver"
! Senator Mitchell: Does the govern
ment of the United States take Hawai-
ian silver in payment for orders on the
/ mainland?"
Mr. Damon: II certainly believe so.
! By an agreement with the Postmaster
we take from twenty-five per cent to
fifty per cent Hawaiian silver and the
rest gold. If we refused to take it from
him he might refuse to take 1t from
the customer and might thus create a
debasement of the currency"
Senator Mitchell How much is now

Mr. Damon: II think at least one
tenth must have disappeared. say $3.50,
900 to 100000 still in circulation. Take
one more example. There Is paid into
the treasury considerable amount in
licenses, fees and SO on. These small
amounts aggregate a considerable
amount. II there should come about

serious condition for under previous

(From Wednesdays daily)

In n session which was full of en-
thusiasm. the Fourth District commit
tee of the Republican party, last even
ing at Castle & Cookies hall, nominat-
ed the ticket for representatives. There
was no feeling but that of pure Re-
publicanism and the sentiments ex-
pressed by the delegates were those of
devotion to the party.
When Chairman Cooke called the con-
vention to order the roll call showed
fifty-one members present out of fifty
five in the body. A communication
from the Portuguese Political club was
read. The special committee acceded
to the conditions imposed by the Dis
trict committee and presented for nom
ination the following names: j. NJ.
Camara, NJ A. Silva, M c. Pacheco,
a. G.. Correa and j. NJ. Vivas. The
committee especially recommended the
naming of Camara.
When the letter had been translated
Chairman Cooke said that before action
was taken the committee should have
before it letter from the Portuguese
Republican club. There was applause
| and when the resolutions which APP
proved the Republican platform and
! then asked that Frank Andrade be
| placed on the ticket were read there
was more applause.
| James Mott, Jr., moved that the com
munications be received and placed on
file which was adopted, and this cleared
the decks for action.
Capt. Nahora Hipa got the floor first
and said that before the committee
| proceeded to vote on candidates ht
would move that the ticket consist OF
| three Hawaiians and three foreigners
j. II. Craig said that he was opposed
to the drawing of race lines, every one
present being American citizens. HI
thought there should be every one.
Nahora Hipa said every one was ar
| American but he considered half-Ha
waiians are white people because on,
of their parents was white. HI
thought there should be three real Ha
waiians. If four or five white candi
dates We're put up there would be mucl
kicking, while If three Hawaiians ant
, three white men We're named ther
would be good feeling on every side
He said he was for harmony.
Mott said that he understood tina
the Hawaiians had been holding con
ferences and they had agreed that the.

only increased capitalization on account
of improvements out Of earnings.
Senator Burton called attention to the
fact that Mr.. Cooper had not mentioned
white labor on the plantations and ask
ed if there was no amount of such
labor Mr.. Cooper said there We're no
white men on the plantations as field
hands. After some questioning Senator
Burton got at the meat of his Conten-
tion thus:
with the door closed to cheap labor
here and opened to cheap labor in Gu
ba, with reciprocity there as well, Ha-
wall would face serious condition,
is that not the case?"
Il think we would" responded Secre-
tary Cooper.
1T would amount to almost a prohi-
bition of your product, would it not?''
asked Mr.. Burton.
THAT is my opinion" was the reply.
Il would like to ask Governor Dole
If he agrees with the statement and
opinion of Secretary Cooper" then
asked Senator Burton.
II do" emphatically answered Gov
Dole
There was then some talk of the let
ters which Secretary Cooper was asked
to submit to the commission, when he
interrupted to say:
There is one word on the matter
of the Lepers which l wish to say
now | believe this matter is one which
we should retain entirely in our owr
control This is a misfortune to oul
people with which we have always cop
ed. There is a deep set sentiment con-
nected with these unfortunates and
think we should not ask for Fedora
aid. We all feel a lively interest IL
their welfare and they have been vel
cared for and will always be so pro-
tected Federal control might lead tc
the coming here OF lepers from the
mainland and this is a stigma with
which we should not be branded"
Committees of the Portuguese resi-
dents on Punchbowl, Messrs. Vierra
and Durao. and from the Republican
Central Committee, consisting of Sena-
tors Carter and Crabbe, A. l.. c. At
kinson, T.. c. Winston and Col. j. ii
Fisher, were introduced. When the lat
ter came in and presented their com
pliments Senator Burton asked e
which faction they belonged, laughing
ly, and was told that there was no fac
tion. that all were Republicans. Sena-
tor Mitchell spoke up quickly, how
ever, saying: 1T does not matter about
factions, any Republican committee Is
good enough for anybody"

John G. SAKE, the poet wit, attended
flag raising at Greenbush, little
place across the river from Albany,
during the civil war and made an elo-
Quent speech in which he praised the
young men of .Greenbush for showing
their patriotism by exerting themselves
to procure the star spangled banner.
This did not altogether please the
chairman, who whispered to him that
the young ladies of Greenbush had
also been instrumental in raising funds
for the purchase of the flag. ......
Thereupon SAKE, addressing the
young ladies. made them a graceful
and gallant apology for not including
them in his praise. 81 don't know how
came to make such a mistake" he
explained, ''save as l may have been
laboring under the impression that the
young men of Greenbush embra ced the
young ladies of Greenbush."
