WEST HAWAII IS
FIRMLY REPUBLICAN,

H. L. Holstein writes denying the re-
port from Kona that there is great
Home Rule enthusiasm there. He says
that West Hawaii will pile UP a ma
jority of 400 for the Republican ticket
and adds: I'VE would like to have
Messrs. Robinson and Beckley UP here,
but believe they have their hands full
in Honolulu; that it would be unwise to
alter their plans, and while West Ha-
waii is not deficient of speakers and
organizers in the Republican ranks,
still such orators as you have there
would be welcome to our County meet
ings, as they may give us some pointers
as to how meeting should be con-
Quoted.
There is one thing we are certain
of up here, and that is. if Oahu County,
Maui County and East Hawaii can be
as sure of Republican gains and Sue
cess as West Hawaii. there would not
be that discouragement as seems to per-
wade the political atmosphere in the
former places mentioned"
