CARTER KNOWS NOTHING
ABOUT PRATT CHARGES

4 don't know any more about the
holding uD of the nomination of Mr.
Pratt for Postmaster at Honolulu than
what 1 saw in your paper this morn
ing" said Governor Carter yesterday
And that was doubtless true. The
news cabled to the Advertiser by its
Washington correspondent took the
entire town by surprise And yet, con-
sidering all things. perhaps it should
not have done so. There has been a
long and bitter fight waged for the
Postmastership, and it was hardly to
be supposed that the friends of the
men who We're thought to have been
beaten by Mr. Pratt would lie down
without an effort to retrieve their for
tunes.
Many things may be done at Wash
ington, to an open aspirant for a gov
eminent position-and even then he
may not be beaten. It does not follow,
because the nomination of Pratt has
been withheld, that he will not get the
place in the long run
There has been a hard fight made
for the POstmastership, with three or
more properly speaking, four candi-
dates in the field although of the four
perhaps neither Crabbe nor Kenake was
seriously in the running at any time.
But Postmaster Oat whose record was
good, had the endorsement of the Ter
ritoriaI National Committeeman. with
whom it was a question of prestige to
win, while Pratt had the backing of
the Governor. whose prestige was like
wise involved and whose endorsement.
it had been openly said
