Presidential Possibilities

Political circles are becoming
somewhat agitated over the person
ality OF Presidential candidates 10

gouaut 1t is we'll understood that
the friends of President Roosevelt
propose to land another term forhim
and that they are encouraged by the
general p ,pularity which the Pre-
sident s-secured. 1t is also com
ing to the surface that the trust
interests OF the country will prevent
his nomination if they ca1, their
initial move being to defeat any anti
trust legisla ion hs may propose
1t is also belevei that the csnd,-
dates being aonsidersi by the trust

TUESDAY. JAN. 6, 1903.

Again the Hawaiian people, we
mean that portion connected with
the Mission of he Roman Catholic
Church in these islands, ara called
upon to mourn the loss of another
turn, true, tried aud trnsied friend,
in the passing away OF the Right
Reverend Gulstan Ropert, Bishop
of Panopolis. During The many
years OF his ministry in these Isl
auds before his elevation 10 the
Episcopate, he had spent the most
OF that time among the people of
the country, visiting them and ad
ministering to their fpiritusl wants,
aud in euch au intercourse, whsn he
was elevated, a warm fountain OF
aloha had sprung up between him
and those to whom he ministered, !,
which waa always kept up till death
claimed him and his spirit went to
the Master thst he served faithfully
while life lasted. In heir days Of
dire adversely, his counsels we're
always sougb. for by the people
and we're always willingly and graci-
ously given. Although OF retiring
nature and disposition, he always
had good word for all those he
knew to be in trouble. whsther OF
his paticular faith or not, and when
advice was sought for, it was un-
stintingly givsn.
To his successov, whoever he may
be, We hope the same lot may fall to
him of being embalmed 10 the hearts
of the Hawaiisns.
