BISHOP SPEAKS.

Republican party.
BISHOP SPEAKS.
E. Faxon Bishop remarked that he
had little TO say. Now that everybody
had had their chance to ballot for their
favorites, he expected everybody to go
in and help out the three winners. I'VE
three (referring to Messrs. Dowsett
and Lane and himself), feel pretty
high up just now, but there is hard
work for US all during the campaign.
If elected I will do all I can for the
good government of this Territory. I
will be ready to listen to complaints
and suggestions and will do everything
TO comply with the wishes of my con-
stituents." (Applause)
DoWsETT'S PLATFORM,
J. NJ. Dowsett said: II find it hard
to express my appreciation for the
honor you have conferred upon me. I
think this is a double honor. First as
my friend Thompson said, because am,
or was, the unknown quantity in this
canlpaign-that is great honor-and
second, for the honor of being elected
to fight for the greatest political party
on earth-that is an honor to be proud
of. (Applause.)
II pledge myself, gentlemen, to sup
port the platform as adopted by the
Republican convention at Hilo. I en-
dorse it from beginning to end.
Il pledge myself to support Governor
Carter and his administration (proIong--
ed applause), and heartily endorse the
nomination that has been given to
Prince Kuhio for Delegate to Congress.
I'VE have before US strenuous cam
paign. We have got hard fight ahead.
1 pledge my best efforts to carry the
party to success, but with your un-
divided support we can wipe our oppo-
nents off the board. 1 want to do one
thing for this Territory. Harmony is
the first and last motive of this cam
paign. We want harmony in our own
ranks. and then we viii be sure to go
forward to victory. There ought to be
but one party in these islands, and
, that full of harmony (Applause).
The joint convention then adjourned.

FIFTH DISTRICT NOMINEES.
The Fifth district caueussed after
the joint convention and after deal
of talk settled down TO the business of
bailoting. During the time nonina-
lions We're being made, Judge Kaulu-
kou arose and put in nomination the
name of Jack Kalakiela. He said he
was not of the same precinct as Kala-
kieia, but had been requested to make
the non1ina ton. As the name of kala-
kiela had been withdrawn previously
from the race, in favor of Shaw, some
surprise was manifested that Judge

Gus in this manner.

Kaleiopuu 18th precinct), AZ.
Sol Mahelona 9th precinct, 40.
