Governor George R. Carter delivered
the great key of the City of Honolulu
to the Southern California Editorial AS
sociation in the robin s egg blue room
at the Capitol building yesterday at IL
O'Clock. The key was handed over to
Edgar johnson, secretary of the as
sociation, and he will open the way
to all his fellow visitors from the
garden belt of California.
The much-heralded and long-expected
delegation of Southern California
writers, men and women, arrived on
the Oceanic Steamship Alameda early
yesterday morning after voyage of
five days and sixteen hours from San
Francisco, voyage that was altogether
pleasant, due in large measure to
the courteous treatment of Captain
Dowdell, Purser Smith and all the of
ficers of the Pacific ferry boat.
The delegation was met outside the
channel by the general committee of
the Promotion Committee and Homo
lulu newspapers and its members COW
cred with leis.
The first day of the visit here was
one of successive and pleasurable sur
prises to the press men despite the en-
deayor of Jupiter Pluvius to upset all
the well-laid plans. Old Sol won out
finally and the morning and afternoon
supplied the usual fine weather Homo
lulu always has in store for visitors.
From early morning until late last
night the day was round of pleasure
terminating in grand reception and
ball where native Hawaiian music
thrilled the hearts of the Californians
and quickened their already fond i'm
pressions of the city as they stepped the
measures of the waltz and deux temps.
All in all, Honolulu may be con
graduated upon receiving into its
midst such a delegation of solid
knights of the pen from the distant
shore of California
