There were several conferences dur
ing the stay Of Prince Cupid on the ISL
and, but these seem to have amounted
to nothing. The prince was not reaay
to declare himself, and the people con-
tented themselves with asking ques-
tions. When Prince Cupid left Waikiki
in the Claudine for Hawaii, accompa-

he announced that he would return and
then announce his decision.
KAUAI REPUBLICANS ACTIVE.
Kauai is in better shape for an ag-
gressive campaign now than ever be-
fore. Since the election two years ago
there have been added to the list of
voters nearly 200 names, and these in
clude some of the best men on the
Garden Isle. in the way OF campaign
work. Among this number is Francis
Gay, who will be tower of strength.
There Is a belief that S. W. Wilcox will
be the selection for Senate. Friends OF
w. H. Rice are said to be urging him
TO take the nomination. but is hardly
probable that he will do so.
When it comes to the lower house,
there are a number of men in the fight
for places. All are good men, men who
can be depended upon to make a hard
fight, and the convention promises to
be one worth while. At the head of the
list perhaps is John GandaH, of I.lhue.
while others mentioned are George
Munden, Kappa, Messrs. Kinney and
Werner, Hanalei, Eric Knudsen and ].
Armstead, c. A. Rice and Francis Gay
of Waimea and Henry Yeager of Hama
pepe Many OF the men named are not
making a canvass for the places, but
are being urged by friends who are
anxious to have them get into the fight
because OF the strength they would
bring to the ticket.
Perhaps the most remarkable point
in the campaign is that on Kauai,
where the Republicans made a slow
fight two years past this time the work
is most advanced. There are long lists
| of voters, great enrolment upon the
club rolls, made for the purpose of get
ting at the primary lists, and most
careful and active work being done
among the Hawaiians. This work Is
being aided by the dissatisfaction In the
ranks of the Home Rulers, caused by
the renomina ton of the old ticket, there
being many directors as well as other
candidates for the places, whose friends
are now ready to knife the ticket. The
most encouraging feature is that the
Republicans are hard at work. They
claim every one of the new voters and
H. Rice out among tie natives urr: nS
them to support the Republican nomi-
nees, there seems hope for the success
of the entire ticket
