PLATFORM CARRIES WEIGHT
The discussions of the conference
are by no means confined 10 those who
are designated to address the assem-
bly, on topics assigned them. Discus
sion from the floor is always welcomed
and often some Of the best ideas are
developed in this manner. After full
discussion. the Committee on Platform
brings in its report, which is discussed
and finally passed as the unanimous
opinion of the members Of the confer
ence.
1T will be easily seen that from the
representative character of the mem
bership OF the conference, including
many members of Congress Of national
renown. the care with which subjects
are discussed and the necessarily con-
servative expression of the views of the
conference in order to have the vote
unanimous. the final expression mas
great weight with Congress in shaping
legislation. The debates are taken IN
shorthand and published and distrib-
uted to congressman and senators,
heads of departments and many 9TH
ers. Quotations are frequently made
in Congress from these published re-
ports.
In view of all this. I consider 1t
very fortunate for Hawaii that the i
conference should recommend that our
voice should be heard in Congress ana
needed more largely than ever before |
whenever matters of interest to Hawaii
are before that august body OPPOSE
ion by single member of the confer
ence to any plank in the platform

and store petroleum by means of pipe. The
petition charges that ever since its organi-
cation, in 1856, II has been member of an
Illegal combination known as the Standard
oil company It operates in six counties
In northwestern Ohio and charges p cents
per barrel for the transportation of oil any
distance. Such charges, It Is said, are only
nominal and are imposed to prevent others

equal facilities for use of It's pipe lines, and
that the charges should not be more than

for an alternative writ of mandamus and
that the defendant provide for the public
