believe the best policy is that when you
find weak spot the proper thing to
do Is to strengthen II. The party Ia
safe in Honolulu. 1t is not safe on
Hawaii. The Republicans there need
TO be taught the lesson of cohesion and
the necessity Of working with the party
at all times. II is a good idea to go
over and boost them up. II. as has
been said. a convention at Hilo will
mean a paper convention, 1t is unfor.
tunate. II II is to be a convention of
proxies II will be bad to be sure. But
II Is the duty of good party man to
go to any amount of trouble for the
benefit OF his party. Any one elected
~ delegate should go to Hilo. II you
decide to strengthen aNweak fence you
must go over and do IL. You must
show your loyalty"
A. @. NJ. Robertson made the most
logical plea of the evening in favor OF
Honolulu. What will do the most
good for the Republican party" said
he. Our fighting ground is in Homo
lulu. II there is any weak place in the
Republican fence Il is in the Fifth Dis
trict Here will be the center OF the
fight Hilo is as far from the center as
Nawiliwili or Hanalei. II we want to
do good with the convention let US
hold II here, where II will not be made
up OF paper proxies. but where II will
be filled by ablebodied voting delegates.
To hold the convention In Hilo will do
Hilo no good; II will be of no benefit
to the Republican party and the Demo-
Gratis will hold an enthusiastic conyen-
ton in Honolulu and gain where we
lose.
However. II the convention goes to
Hilo | shall endeavor TO be there. But
In order TO boom the party, to build up
and strengthen the party, the conven-
ton should be held In Honolulu where
teh Fifth District is In need Of more
attention
Sam Parker said that four years ago
he took somebody's advice to work In
Honolulu and let the outside districts
look out for themselves. II was running
FOR Delegate. They told me to stop In
Honolulu and have been stopping
here ever since"
McStocker spoke again, favoring Hilo
more strongly. He said: III the COM
mittCe should decide to work on weak
srots then Hilo is the place. over
there Democrats have no strength to
speak of yet and the Home Rulers are
al sea. The Young Mems Republican
Club Is active and claims to have gath
cred in good many mavericks from
the doubtful districts. You can make
gains in the Fifth District by other
means. The convention should be held
In Hilo."
The vote was In favor Of Hllo. 10 to

TO SEND MESSENGER
FOR LIBRARY BOOKS.
Library Managers Not DESTROYS OF
Taking other steps Now.

Library Managers Not DESTROYS OF
Taking other steps Now.
The committee having in charge the
collection of books taken from the Pub
lie Library by different persons and
not yet returned, was last night in
structed to employ a messenger and
send him around after the books. The
board of library managers decided on
this action at their regular September
meeting.
Those at the meeting were Messrs.
A. A. Lawrence, H. c. Cunningham,
Thomas Gamble, Jr., and Mr.. Otis Ash
more. The subject of the books still
held out was at once taken up and
the committee reported that there were
between thirty and forty persons in
different parts of the city who had not
yet returned their books. After some
discussion, the messenger plan given
above was decided upon, the board of
managers not wishing to take any
more serious step at present If this
method fails, however, legal action will
no doubt be instituted.
The report of the chairman of the
Library Committee showed that dur
ing the month of August there had
been total of 1856 books taken out.
These were distributed among the diff
ferent departments as follows: Philoso-
ply, thirteen; religion, twenty-three;
sociology, seventeen; natural science,
twenty-one; useful arts, thirteen; fine
arts, seventeen; literature, siXty-one;
history, 240, and fiction, 4,461
During the month there have been
$3.50 visitors to the reading rooms,
making the total for the year 52,254.
A total of 1872 cards were issued dur
ing August. There have been $50
volumes catalogued. The Library Com
mittee has made seventy-eight visits
to the library. The income from fines
and reserve notices amounted to $3.50.
After transacting several other mat
ters of purely routine business, adj
journment was taken, the board Of
managers having been in session for
less than an hour.

SPRINKLING STREETS
WITH HOUSE SALT.
Unique Experiment Being Conduct

Unique Experiment Being Conduct
ed On Habersham Street by City.
The public works department of the
city is now trying to get rid of the
grass that has grown up on the paved
streets between the vitrified bricks by
putting salt on it.
An experiment is being tried on
Habersham street now. and the salt
will later be put on the other brick
streets where the grass has grown,
ii the plan proves successful.
A coating of salt almost an inch
thick has been scattered over the street
grass is very thick between the car
tracks. 1t is thought that the salt
Will not only kill the grass that is
there now, but will so permeate the
earth between the bricks so it will
never come up again.
cutting the grass only makes it
grow the faster, and it can not very
well be chopped up with a hoe, as it
is growing between the bricks. The
salt was therefore resorted to. 1t is
bought for almost nothing, the re-
fuse product from the packing houses
being secured. The grass greatly mars
the beauty of several of the paved
streets, and every effort will be made
to get rid of it.
The grass on the unpaved streets is
being cut. and chopped up. Gwinnett
street, between Abercorn and Haber-
sham, has just been cleared of grass.

MOVING DAY WILL
SOON ROLL AROUND.

Unprecedented Demand for Houses
From Newcomers This Season.
Furniture vans piled high with
household effects will be due on the
streets very soon. for prudent movers
will not wait until Oct. to get team
and wagon to carry their effects from
their old to their new home. If they did
somebody would be sure to be left.
Moving day this year will be on Sat-
urday and for those who wait until that
day to move there will be a Sunday of
confusion little COMFORTING with the
quiet of the day.
With the steady growth of Savannah
hundreds of new houses for residence
purposes have been recently completed,
or are now being rushed to be made
ready for occupancy. The greater part
of these are built for rent and the
rental business consequently is -four
ishing.
While there will be a considerable
number of changes this year the pro-
portion will not be so large as for the
year before. An encouraging feature
is the numerous calls for houses from
those who are preparing to take up
their permanent residence in Savan-
nah.
I'VE will have from fifty to seventy
five families who will move this sea-
son." said Mr.. e. w. Demmond of the
firm of Youmans & Demmond. This
will be somewhat in excess of last
year. Many of our customers will
keep their present houses. There has
been considerably more demand for
houses this year as compared with
last.
The demand this season is for a
good class of houses, renting from $50
up. We are well satisfied with the
outlook. OF course we will have a
few houses left over and if we didn't
we would have to close up our rental
department. The record this season
speaks well for the growth of the city"
Mr.. Carl Mendel said on the same
subject:
"a very small number of my GUS
toners will change this year. In fact
/ cannot recall but two of my tenants
who will move on Oct l. Almost with
out exception my tenants have kept
their houses for another year.
"A noticeable feature of the rental
business this season has been the in
fluX of strange people. I have receiv
ed ten times the number of applications
that did last year. The demand is
unprecedented in Savannah. I believe
1 could rent fifty medium sized houses
in a week if it were known that 1 had
them on hand. The outlook for the real
estate business is beautiful this year."

PROVOKED ASSAULT.
Master of TiIlie Baker Denies
Charges Made by Sailor.

Master of Tillie Baker Denies
Charges Made by Sailor.
Capt. Henry Sprinkle of the bark
Tillie Baker denies most emphatically
that there has been any cruel treat
ment practiced on sailors on his craft,
and says the blow administered by the
mate on Sailor Joe Dewey, who COM
planned to the United States commits
sioner, was administered under the
most provoking circumstances.
According to Capt. Sprinkle, Dewey
was guilty of conduct that was toler-
ated much longer than it should have
been. and was only struck by the mate
after he had used the vilest language
repeatedly. The master of the bark
says it is not true that Dewey was
kicked and that when he signed he
had a sore leg. Capt. Sprinkle says
several members of his crew have
signed with him several times, which
is evidence of the fact that his sailors
are accorded fair treatment.

Repairing is Now in Progress, But

The asphalt streets of Savannah,
which are now being repaired, are in
better condition than at any previous
time when the repair gang went to
work, the director of public works says.
The streets were repaired only a
few months ago, and they have worn
very little since then. The public
works director says there is no trouble
at all now in getting the asphalt re-

The Barber Asphalt Paving Com
