'pREL|MINARIES
Of BIC CONTEST
Republican National Committee
CalI---Hughes Is Taft's
Probable Rival.
(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., October Is
The very first formal action with refer
ence to the Republican campaign for
the Presidency will be taken late this
week. That is the opening of the ball.
1t will be a little more than twelve
months before the ball is over and the
country knows whether the Republicans
have been successful again in electing
a President
The formal action is very little
matter. 1t rests solely with one man.
AIIe is Col. Harry S. New, chairman of
1.-THE Republican National Committee
fBut Col. New is coming all the way
from indianapolis to Washington to
make the announcement and to issue
the formal call for the meeting of the
National Committee in this city. Elmer
Dover, the secretary of the committee
whose headquarters are officially IN this
city, but who spends much of his time
on business duties in New York and
elsewhere, has also come to Washing
ton and will be here with Col. New
when the call is issued.
1t will not be very difficult mat
ter to determine when the committee
shall meet. The custom has been for
1t tc meet sometime in December
usually about the middle of the month
when Congress has come together and
the two houses have organized for bust
ness. Col. New will undoubtedly call
the meeting for December this year,
but he will consult with numerous men,
bers of the committee to determine on
what date. The session generally con-
tinues for two days.
The old stagers of the committee say
sSSat the meeting is only to choose a
time and place for the meeting of the
National Convention. They speak as
though it were very simple matter
In fact. however, a vast deal of i'm
portance is attached to the meeting
in the minds of many people. 1t IS
period for consultation and for ex-
CHANGE of views. While all of this may

PROMINENT MEN ON

Among the passengers on the Persia,
which arrived last night from the
Orient, is w. Porter Boyd, well known
in this city, and at present American
Acting Consul General at Shanghai. He
is supposed to be on his way to Wash
ington, upon business connected with
the State Department. FL. Perci7al
Dodge was formerly secretary of the
American Embassy at Toxic and is now
en- route to Honduras, where he has
been appointed American minister.
Andrew Adams, manager of the Ka-
huku plantation and F. Meyer, man
ager of the Waianae plantation, both
returned on the Persia from the ORR
ent yesterday. They have been on
vacation trips in the Far East.

HAS MACHINERY
FOR DREDGING
w. r. Dillingham; Tells About
His Trip to Coast on
Business.

Walter F. Dillingham; returned yes
terday from trip to San Francisco,
in which he spent large part of his
time arranging for machinery for the
work to be done in the harbor dredging
contract which the Hawaiian Dredg
ing Company was awarded by the gov
ernment a few weeks ago. The con-
tract itself is in Honolulu at present
and will be signed and sent off on the
Persia this morning. In speaking of
his trip Dillingham; said:
while on the Coast made arrange
ments for the machinery which will
be needed for the dredging work which
we are to do in the Honolulu harbor.
This consists principally of machinery
for handling rock for the breakwater.
which we are to build outside the
lighthouse, and will all be purchased
in San Francisco, where it is in stock

to be brought from the East, and E. ].
Lord is now in that section looking
after this part of the matter:
st also~arranged for the bond which
will be necessary. This is for s125,0OO
and was arranged for through San
Francisco people.
s'In regard to the oil business down
here it seems likely that the Union Oil
Company will enter the refined oil field
in this Territory in the near future on
a large scale. From what I could learn
it seems likely that the price of crude
oil in San Francisco will be better than
81 per barrel before long. AS the larger
consumers in this city are paying
about that price or little less, at the
present time, it seems to me that they
are doing pretty well.
s.The change in san Francisco since
was there about ten months ago is
wonderful. Before there were many
temporary buildings. but now all over
the business part of the city handsome
permanent buildings have been erect
ed and It is marvellous what has been
done. The business men are getting
hack into their part of the city once

Negotiations in the Kapaa land mat
ter have developed feature which is
probably entirely new in the adjust
ment of government land leases in these
Eislands, and it was to this feature that
consideration was being given .yester-
day.
The lands embraced in the Kapaa
lease include not only cane lands, but
mountain and pasture lands and rice
and taro lands. The lease to Col. Spald-
ing expired some six months ago or
such a matter and the lessee was left
In possession pending the harvesting of
the growing cane crop, and perhaps
pending a readjustment and new
lease But the question has been rals-
ed whether the lessee left in possession
on sufferance and that the cane crop
may be harvested, is also left in pos
session for the purpose of collecting
rents from those who during the term
of the lease were sub-lessees9 For in
stance, is the lessee still authorized to
collect rents for rice land included in
the lease after its expiration, from one
who was a sub-lessee during the term
of the lease? The six months which
have elapsed since the lease expired,
is more than enough time in
which to raise an entire crop of rice,
Under what terms, if at all, should
the lessee under the expired term be
allowed to collect rent, for rice land
after the lease has expired7 This is
a question which was receiving the at

WILL MAKE TRIP
To INSPECT KIHE|

E. PolIitZ, the well-known San Fran
cisco stockbroker, who is deeply inter-
ested in these islands in many ways,
arrived yesterday on the Manchuria,
accompanied by E. NJ. Walsh, who was
formerly manager of the Paia plan
tation. AS told in yesterdays Adver-
tiser they came down for the purpose
of examining the Kihei plantation. In
speaking of the matter Mr.. Pollitz
said:
eve have come to Hawaii to look
closely into the affairs of the Kihei
plantation. Alexander & Baldwin own
the larger part of the stock in both
the Hawaiian Commercial and Kihei
properties, and wish to see the sug-
gested amaigamation go through. They
do not wish to do this, however, with
out being sure that the directors of the
company who live in San Francisco
are satisfied, and for this reason Mr..
Walsh, being an old plantation man.

tigate.

WASHINGTON, D. c., October 49,
No positive word has yet been receiv-
ed from the Navy Department as to
whether Congress viii be asked to make
considerable appropriations for the i'm
provement of Pearl Harbor at the com
ing session. It is believed that Gov
ernor Frear and other Hawaiians will
be able to give the cause some i'm
petus on their arrival here next month.
Walter c. Smith, editor of the Pa
cifc Commercial Advertiser, was in
the city, October u and IS. He has
been making months tour of New
England, the Middle States and the
South. Although i'll in Richmond, his
health is improving, and he expects to
return to Honolulu about November /.
Former Judge Stanley is in Wash
ington, en- route back from Europe
where he has been for several weeks.
He will make protracted visit in

A NEW TURN IN
THE KAPAA LAND
NEGOTIATIONS
The Question of What About the Rent for Rice
and Taro Lands From Sub-Lessees Since
the Lease Expired.

tention of Governor Frear yesterday.
The mountain and pasture lands pre-
sent the same questions. The lease on
these as on the rice lands and taro
lands ard all the other lands has ex-
pired. Those using and occupying them
now are on government land not under
lease. And though the lessee of gov
ernment lands may be allowed to re-
main in possession of them after the
lease has expired long enough to harvest
partly grown crop, with crops that
have grown and benefits that have
arisen entirely since the lease expired,
the question is different.
George S. Fairchild, manager of the
Makee Sugar Company, arrived from
Kapaa yesterday and was at the Capitol
a considerable part of the day. But
the negotistions that have been going
on for some time and the planning that
has been done looking to an entirely
new lease of the Kapaa lands which
should adjust all relations so as to get
the highest use not merely out of the
Kapaa lands but out of all the gov
ernment lands in that locality, and
dependent on the same water supply,
were sidetraeked entirely yesterday
while the new phase of the matter was
being adjusted.
This question will be settled before
the main question is taken up. If the
lessee is holding over, it must be de-
termined on what terms he is holding
over.

This paragraph shows the sentiments
of Hon. James Mckinney, Congress
man from the Rock Island district of
Illinois, who was here with the second
Congressional party some three months
ago and is now returning on the Persia,
after trip through the Orient. When
interviewed at the Young Hotel last
night he said:
ssWhile / have visited many other
places since being in Honolulu there
has been none like your city, and this
is the only place that [ have seen to
WHICH / should like to return and stay.
Mrs. Mckinney and | hoped to be able
to stay over here for short time at
least, but find that it is impossible
and we viii go through ON the Persia.
':Both of us like your climate, your
people and your scenery, and we shall
always carry the kindest remembranees
away of the hospitality which has been
extended to us in this Territory. |
think that Hawaii has the same hos
pitable feeling that one sees in Ken
tueky.
SIN regard to Pearl Harbor, we
made a trip there when here before,
under the guidance of Admiral Very,
and were very much pleased with what
we saw. I believe that these islands
are necessary to the United States
and that they should be properly for
tilted. The widening of the channel
which gives entrance to Pearl Har-
Dor, and which will permit of the
building of drydocks, is of great i'm
portance and i shall be glad to assist
the movement in every way that l
can.
eve had very delightful visit in
the Philippines and were treated most
courteously by everyone there. VI
course we were unfortunate IN visiting
the islands during the rainy season but
we did not mind the rain and went
through everything and saw all that
we could. L am one of those chaps
who believes in never pulling down
the Flag, and the riches which | saw
in the Philippines have made me stlll
more firm in that way. They have
gold, iron, copper and coal there ami
the resources have hardly been limited

"'One of the statements which at
tracted my~attention was made by an
official connected with the department
of forestry. He told me that they
have fifteen hundred varieties of trees
there, while in all the rest of the Unit
ed States there are all told less than
five hundred varieties.
GAS regards the people they are, one
might say, still in the making, and IN
fact are hardly begun. There are many
of them who will make good citizens
and then there are many who VIII
take wears of civilization to bring up
to a proper standard.
