Mr., Rufus Choate, fifty Years ago, in
a speech before the Massachusetts Con-

know nothing ABOUT the parties; every
thing about the case He shall do
everything for justiee nothing for HIM

his patroni nothing for his sovereign.
If on one side is the executive power,
the legislature and the people-the
sources of his honors, the givers of his
daily bread-and on the other an in
dividual, nameless and odious, his eye
is to see neither great nor small, at

Kamaaina. Though a large portion of
his active life was spent on the main
land, yet he returned to the Island Ter

years prevented him from taking an
active part in the affairs of the Ter
ritory either professionally or POLITICAL

his worth and his ability. He was a
worthy and able representative of the

Crop Bulletin.

Week ending April 81, 1908.
The past week was cool and cloudy,
with light rainfall. At the central
station the daily temperature was five
degrees below normal, which was
about the average deficiency for the
state. Light to heavy frosts, with
some ice, were observed on several
mornings, and traces of snow were re-
ported at a number of stations on the
18th. The extent of damage to fruit
can not be ascertained at this time,
but it is probably not heavy.
The general conditions for farm
work have been somewhat better than
during the preceding week. The soil
is slowly drying, though there is still
great excess of moisture in fiat and
undrained fields, some of which are
not likely to be seeded or planted this
season. Seeding of small grain Is
practically completed, except in por-
tons of the north central and north
east districts. Early seeded fields
generally show good stand, though
the growth has been retarded by cold
weather.
Wherever the land is sufficiently dry
blowing for corn has been vigorously
pushed. In few favored localities
in the west and southwest planting
has been begun. Reports indicate
that the soil is generally heavy, and
more than the usual amount of labor
is required to put it in good filth for
planting. With the restoration OF
normal weather conditions the crop
outlook will be good.

NOTES.
The report of the committee on the
primary system, which report was laid
over until this year, was taken up and
by call of townships the report was
adopted by vote of about two to one.
The committee that prepared the rules,
G. w. Cosson and W. c. Elliott, was
continued to make any necessary
changes to make the rules applicable.
We will republish these soon.
John Lovelace generously moved to
make Mr.. Motifs nomination uuani-
nous, congratulating his opponent and
proffering his support. The same act
ion was taken by the candidates on the
other offices.
John Weighton's speech in opposit-
ion to releasing Leroy delegates from
their instructions, was good one.
His reply to O'Connell's Interruptions
and his criticism of O'Connells act
ions was enjoyed by most of the con-
vention. Mr.. Weighton did his Job
artistically and kept an even temper.
Mr.. Copeland had rather trying
place for a few minutes, but his decis-
ions were fair. He is good parlia-
mentarian. The convention never had
better secretaries than Shelley and
Esbeck.
The ticket was the evident choice of
Audubon county republicans. While
there is disappointment on the part of
defeated candidates and of their
friends, there is no indication but
that nearly all republicans will fall in
line. 1t is generally accepted that the
nominees have been competent and
honest officials. There is no doubt of
their reelection.
