over Bryan s name
Mr.. Watson spoke of what he called
an absurd statement about the name

for Vice President of the United States

local press had nothing to do with
such a report. 1t was eabled report
from Denver. Tt came through the
offer of Mr.. Kinney IS name as the per-
son selected to be a vice president of

the same honor accorded him in the
1904 convention.
Col. Mccarthy spoke briefly saying
the meeting was merely called to thank

done by them at Denver.

failing the incidents of the railroad

results of their mission. Harvey spoke

PROPOSAL For
SPEEDY STEAMER
Continued from Page One

'sThe passenger traffic between the
Islands and the Coast needs a large
steamer, and a fast steamer. Hugo
Frear, brother of the Governor, and
the marine architect for the Union
Iron Works of San Francisco, two
years ago went very thoroughly into
the design of a vessel for this trade.
He states that nine thousand ton
steamship having a capacity for 1900
tons of freight, with guaranteed speed
of eighteen knots an hour, and room for
300 cabin passengers, could be built
for $1,500,000. This was two years
ago. Cost is cheaper now, and this
vessel could be built for $3.50, 900.
Mr. Frear has figured it out, that with
an average of loo passengers each trip
and twelve full cargoes year, such
a vessel could be made to pay.
With such a vessel in the passen-
ger trade the passengers would come.
1t only needs that the public shall
know that a steamer that can carry
800 frst-class passengers and make the
voyage each way within six days and
as often as sixteen times a year, is
on the run, and they will visit the
Islands.
cit seems to me then that the op-
portunity is here. Such a vessel can
not be built within four or five
months, but it can be built within
eighteen months, so that such vessel
could be ready for the beginning OF
the sugar season in 1910.
''1f the planters who have the
freight to ship, the mercantile inter,
ests of the community, the Inter-Islani
company and the Matson company, to
gether with citizens of the community
willing to 60 into such an enterprise,
would get together, the money could
be readily raised and all the connec
lions necessary for such vessel to
be a success, be easily made. The con,
trolling ownership ought to be here
In the Islands.
"Sueh a vessel could carry the pas
sengers. Such a vessel would attract
them. Burning oil, operating expenses
would be kept down. Running on
three weeks schedule it would offer
frequent and certain means for visitors
to come here and to get away. It
strikes me that joint effort can now
accomplish what we have long wanted
accomplished, and that the passenger
situation can be greatly benefited. -

in its promise to cut up the public
lands into small holdings.
Have you read anywhere that the
Delegate to Congress from Hawaii or
the Republican administration here has
done anything to improve the land
, laws of this Territory?' queried Mr..
McCandless. What is a platform
made for? Here is a platfrom with
land plank in it that every man in
the convention pledged himself to car
~ out. IF a platform does not mean
anything what is the use of this AMI
that party making platforms? The
Republicans in 1906 proposed to divide
up the public lands, but about the same
time gave out to the newspapers that
they were going to dispose of the IS
land of Lanai to one man and deprive
a hundred Hawaiians of their lands
and livelihood. The Republicans did
that Six or eight weeks ago the Gov
ernor went to Maui and said he was
going to trade $50 acres of sugar land
to H. z. Baldwin, and then was going
to trade another $50 acres to the same
man, while the people could have some
land on the hills to plant pineapples
this by the dozen. rs the same way
dit 1C NANNY AouSuA SOAApoAy
is to get those lands. too.
HWhat you want to do is to send
a Democratic delegate to Congress this
time who will get Congress to support
the land plank in the Democratic plat
form. You want more money for
County governments IF you readjust
your territorial government then you
viii get more money for county gov
eminent.
Fred Turrill gave one of his
charac teristic Democratic warhorse'
speeches, full of ginger and pleas for
votes for the. Democratic candidates
during the coming elections.
'.For eight years in this Territory,
said Fred, 81 have been trying to get
a home from the public lands. The
only piece of real estate I own in this
country is a 6x2 foot hole in Nuuanu
cemetery. Don't try to catch mynah
birds by putting salt on their tails,
and stop chasing the Home Rule rain

Chairman Fern closed the meeting
with an explanation of the badges
which adorned his breast, which were
brought back from Denver by the dele
gates. He concluded by asking the
people to remember that only Demo
Gratis could give good administration
of affairs.
