ARE FEASTING
GOVERNOR CARTER
NATIVES ENTERTAIN GUBERNA-
LUAU AT PAHALA THURSDAY.

{ Governor Carter and party are hav-
ing a splendid time on the island of
Hawaii. Reports of the progress of the
gubernatorial party were brought today
by the steamer Kinau.
Governor Carter and party arrived at
Mahukona at o'clock Wednesday
morning. They were greeted with
salute. There was a big crowd at the
landing to greet the governor. The
party were the guests at breakfast of
Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Fraser.
On Thursday the party were given
an elaborate luau at 1'shala by the ma
tives. After the feaat there were
speeches. Governor Carter spoke and
expressed the utmost friendship fol the
natives. In the evening there was re-
ception and ball at the Pahala Club.
Everybody in the district attended
The affair was big success in every
respect.
Yesterday Governor Carter and Sec
letary Atkinson met with the planters
cf that part of the island for the pur-
pose of comforting with them regarding
the KhOala ditch and other water mat
ters of Importance to that section. To-
day the party left TO inspect the no
hala ditch and other sections of the
Kohala district. The party were the
guests of Senator and Mrs. Palmer
Woods at his ranch. q.

Tender Must
Garry Cargo
VESSEL FOR LIGHTHOUSE DIvI-
SION MUST BE ADAPTED TO LO-
CAL CONDITNONS.

1t is likely that the lighthouse tender
for these Islands will be vessel spe-
cially constructed for the work Of the
lighthouse division of Hawaii. Captain
Niblack in his orders and general di-
rectons from the lighthouse board was
requested to give his idea of the char
acter of vessel that would be best suited
to the requirements for a tender in
these islands.
Such a vessel would have to be so
constructed as to be a cargo carr icr.
There is likely to be considerable build
ing done throughout the local division
and the lighthouse tender will be re-
quired to carry materials to the va
rious sections in the division. Some
time will elapse however such a tender
is sent 70 these islands.

REBATE ON
MANILA COAL
INTERESTING POINT RAISED
OVER REBATE ON TRANSPORTS
BOUND FROM PHILIPPINES.

SThe rebate on the duty on imported
coal is no longer granted. The year
during which the rebate was allowed
expired January Is, and the old law
went into effect the morning Of Janu-
airy Is. 1t has been enforced by all fed
eral collectors ever since. No coal ves-
sci has arrived at this port, however,
since that time. The duty is 81 cents
a ton. "a,
Quite an interesting point has devel-
oped recently, however, regarding the
rebate to be allowed transports on coal
burned from Manila to this place. The
Collector was asked regarding the mat
ter whether rebates could be allowed
on such coal. While the Philippines
may not in the full acceptance of the
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1904-01-23

it is thought that there win have to
be primaries. AS the regular primaries
are to occur in August this would mean
two primary elections this year.
The convention has general powers
over the party organization and the
calling of primaries would be the sig1
nal for a spirited contest for control
Of the organization. A REORGANIZATION
of the central and executive commit
tees might follow as there would un-
doubtedly be warm fight waged a
gainst some OF the present members.

CHANCE FOR A lively PRIMARY

Senator Crabbe chairman Of the Re-
publican Territorial Control Commit
tee, is considering the call of a pri-
mary election for a convention to select
delegates to the national convention.
The convention will be held in April
and will probably be given to Hilo,
which is anxious to have one of the
party gatherings.
The question of whether a primary is
necessary or whether the members of
the old convention should be called to-
gether, has not been fully settled, but

Supplies
CREW SAID TO HAVE REFUSED
DUTY AND SOME OF CROWD GOT
HOLD OF CAPTAINS SUPPLIES.

The recent trip of the British ship
Netherby to this port from London was
decidedly exciting according to reports
that have just been made public. The
vessel encountered very rough weather
off the Horn and some damage was
done the vessel, but the principal occa-
sion for excitement lay with the crew
and not with the elements.
The crew is reported to have prac-
tically mutined during the voyage
Some of them even refused duty. Sew
eral of the crew are further said to
have broached the captains supplies
and to have enjoyed a high old time,
No arrests were made however on the
vessel reaching Honolulu.

word, be American territory, still the
shipping laws will be put into opera
tion there next July and only American
vessels will be permitted to carry
freight between those islands and other
American ports. In such an event this
coal would not be regarded as being
brought from a foreign port or subject
to duty. The matter has been referred
to the Department for a ruling.
All of the transports coal at Nakasa-
xxi however en- route. In such an event
this coal comes from a foreign port and
the customs regulations would seem to
demand that the rebate be not allowed
in this coal.
