Over week ago Sammy Kama

republican rooter for pelf and now

kipi pursuasion, had the good horse
radish sense of Withdrawing from
the fst as candidate in the Fourth

Democrat who lately returned to
the country after being exiled from
it for connection with the 1896 up
roar. now think that the Prophet
is a wise man OF a wise school and
religion, and all honor to him for
being 80 unselfsh as TO give way to
wiser counsels and sober thought.
Hip, hip, hoorsy for Sam!
There was Dave Motley to have
been called of for much better and
stronger man, but that is now out
OF the question, in order that those
corporation controlled Republican
candidates OF thu Fourth may be
defeated, providing they can be
easily showed under and forever
downed. 1t was thought that an
other Democrat might likely have
been found to accommodate aud
help Home Rulers out of dilemma.
But feel perfectly cory that my
friend MCCARTHY withdrew out OF
the fight. Still l believed that there
were others, for he's not the only
pebble on the beach But that
is now all out, as Motley, the
Mormon convert and one who knows
too much for his own good, will
have to stand and be voted down by
those he is opposing, orselse, win.

of the organization. There are now
thirty-one societies with a total mem
bership of over 1000 which it is hoped
to increase to 1000 this year. One OF
the societies formed during the year,
was that at South Kona, which now has
200 members To work for others
seemed the motto of all the societies,
which is the true spirit. The badge
banner which is awarded to the society
which best memoriZe and locate the
miracles of Christ was won by the Ko-
hala society which had one hundred
per cent. Kawaiahao had ninety-five per
cent and the japanese society in Ho-
nolulu seventy-one Fer cent.
The Presidents report was in Ha-
waiian and the banner was then pre-
scented to the Kohala society by Pro-
fessor Bristol of Kamehameha schools.
This is the third time that Kohala has
won the prize.
All the officers nominated at the
morning meeting We're unanimously
elected by the delegates as follows:
President, NJ. X. Nakuina; secretary,
Florence P. Yarrow; treasurer. Lyle A.
Dickey; vice-president for Oahu, Frank
Atherton. Maui and Hawaii are also
given vice presidents.
Rev. D. Scudder addressed the con-
vention on Christian EndeavOr"
pointing out the aims and endeavors
of the societies and relating instances
of Christian Endeavor in China and
Japan. 1--WE should make our whole
lives one of Christian Endeavor love
for Christ, said he. But the strength
of true Christian Endeavor in ev-
cry act of your life and when you are
gore from this wor:G upon your tomb
stone can be the Inscription HE was
Christian EndeaVnrer."
Upon motion of NJ. K. Nakuina. Rev.
z. S. Timoteo was elected as delegate
at large to visit the different societies
of the association.
Upon motion of VIZ. Richards the A.
ciety decided to send greetings by cable
to the International Convention which
will be held in Denver July Sth. Mr..
Richards said that preparations were
being made in Denver to entertain 90
600 people. The convention was closed
