WASHINGTON LETTER.

licans seem on the verge of getting into
row and the Democrats of getting togeth-
err, the Republicans get together aud the
Democrats get into row. 1t has been
the case with the prospective fight for the
control of the Republican delegation in
New York There has been more inter
nal strife over this thar has appeared on
the surface. There never has been much
question that the real fight for the con
troll of the delegation would be between
Secretary Taft and Governor Hughes
Governor Hughes was not admittedly a
Presidential possibility till few days ago
Then he came outlin response to an ap-
peal from the Hughes League of the
State and said frankly that if he were
wanted by the party for the Presidential
nomination, he was not going TO dodge
it. He was perfectly willing to be can
didate, in fact appreciated the honor that
would be shown him in such selection,
but he was not chasing around looking
for delegates and support. He intended
to stay at home and continue to be Gov.
ernor of the State of New York to the
best Of his ability and if his friends
wanted him as a candidate for President,
they would have to do the hustling and
hunt up the delegates
This was rather blunt way of putting
it. but then Gov Hughes has way Of
playing politics, and the announcement
was just about what might have been
expected from him At least it had the
effect of clearing the air and leaving no
room for doubt that there would be a
Hughes boom to reckon with in lining
up the New York State delegation. The
candidates on the Republican side so far
number six. counting Hughes Each OF
them is s''favorite son" of some State
There are Hughes, Taft. Fairbanks. Can
non and Knox, each of whom can pretty
safely count on his own State delegation
on entering the nominating convention.
Foraker may split Ohio with Taft but
tudt IL ny uO tnCduS SSItdlu.
Now the administration has cen look
ing to the New York delegation as part
of the Taft support. but Secretary Taft
has come out in very frank letter saying
that he is willing for pre.convention pur.
poses TO concede the New York delegation
to Hughes and that he will not make any
state fight of it that will endanger the
harmony of the party. This is not only
personally generous. but it probably is
good politics and horse sense as well
Nobody expects the Republican nomi
nation to be made on the first ballot and
it is just as we'll for the purposes of har
mony not TO pull on any internecine strife
but to concede the New York delegation
to New York man. that is if the dele.
cation is willing to go that way, which il,
probably is. There is strong movement
for Hughes not only in New York but
in many other parts of the country
Whether this sentiment will be strong
enough to land the nomination for him is
question but there is little doubt after
his own declaration and the announce
ment OF Secretary Taft that the next meet
Of the State Committee in New York will
declare for the Hughes candidacy.

Dances Most Pleasant.

Although large dances compliment
tarv to the feet sometimes lose attrac-
tiveness by repetition, this did not APP
ply to the affairs given at the Seaside
Hotel at Waikiki beach. A large dane
ing platform was built beside the surf,
under royal trees, and there reception
and ball was given for the officers and
two dances for the men. The best peo-
pie of Honolulu attended both The
prettiest girls waited with the blue
jackets. Petty officers bought ices and
coffee for their partners with as much
enthusiasm as they turn to their tasks
at target practice. The success of the
affair plainly showed that the best in
Honolulu was none too good for the
men behind the guns.
Many of the excursions led the visi-
tors past the wonderful sugar plapta-
tions which are the backbone of Ha-
wall s prosperity. From all the islands
of the group rich planters came to Ho
nolulu with their families for the fes
tivities of feet week. CHARTERED at the
Alexander Young Hotel or at the
Moana, at Waikiki, ir in their own
town houses, they joined in the enter
tainment of the naval guests. The
sugar industry may at some future time
be rivaled by the fruit growing. Pine
apple cultivation a few years ago was
regarded sceptically. but wonderful sue
cess has attended it since. and some of
the capital from its profits will prob
ably be turned into growing

expected.

HONOLULU, Hawaii, July 81, 1905.
80 Hiking down Alakea street at one
o. clock this morning, their last liberty
in Honolulu at an end, party of blue
jackets sang Justify and all ON the key
Love Me and the World Is Mime 1t
meant they liked Honolulu and re-
GREETED to leave after their seven-day
call. The song, if they sing at all, upon
departure from the rare port they do
not care for, is usually "Take Ne Back
to New York Town. although the ma
jority hail from inland States, from
farms and small cities. Comparatively
few ever saw Herald square, which the
song names as the longed-for native
heath.
Floating down from the ballroom roof
atop the Alexander Young Hotel at the
same hour could be heard the last
music of the last dance given for the
officers. The native musicians were
singing HAloha oe,' most beautiful of
Hawaiian songs, the plaintive melody
of their voices and stringed instru-
ments making a dancing music unlike
that heard anywhere else in the world.
Officers of all ranks from captains down
to the newest midshipmen were taking
leave of those who for six days had
made it delightful for them in this port.
'fYou are the fifth officer who has
told me tonight that you wished you
could stay month, and I believe you all
really mean it, one young woman was
saying. She was the daughter of a
prominent planter who came to Hawaii
in the days of the monarchy, married a
native, participated in several revolu
tions, and, believing the manifest des-
tiny of the Islands was annexation to
the United States, worked steadily to
shape conditions to that end
Having known the navy all her life,
from the days when cruisers rushed
over from the Coast TO protect Ameri
can interests during the death throes
of the picturesque monarchy, this par
ticular young woman was typical rep
resentative of the class of people which
has made Honolulu one of the favorite
ports of call for the navy. Near her
were American-born men and women,
most of whom would tell one
that they had been here ten or
eight years, in other words, that they
had come from "home' Immediately

Honolulu's Hospitality Best.

The efforts which the eight thousand
citizens of Honolulu, assisted by the
Asiatic and native population, made to
entertain officers and men were so sue
eessful that expressed regrets at de-
parture were more emphatic than at
any port in the long cruise around
South America, and so far as the feet
as whole is concerned were more gem
eral than anywhere during the success
sion of parades, garden parties, ban
quets and flower shows going up the
Pacific Coast.
The explanation of it all unquestion-
ably lay in the moderation OF official
entertainments. When, as in some
cities the feet visited, formal func-
ton is planned for each day, no time
remains for officers to follow their own
inclinations. If dinner is on the
schedule, the flagship signals, for in
stance: 1.-THE captain, ten wardroom
and five Junior officers will 60 to the
dinner tonight; uniform special full
dress. This takes practically all the of
ficers not on duty, and go they must, for
orders are orders, and private engage
ments may not stand in the way The
night may be hot, as, for instance, it
was at the Foreign Minister'S dinner
in Rio, and the prescribed uniform I'M
comfortable, but no matter. Those who
planned the program in Honolulu
caught sight of this possible menace to
thorough enjoyment and curtailed their
official entertainments. Governor Frear
gave a dinner to the commander-in-
chief, divisional and commanding of
ficers, and after the parade and a re-
ceptional dance the formal functions.
were practically at an end.
Captain Corwin P. Rees, command
ant of the naval station here, and Mrs.
Rees gave garden party at the Pleas
anton shortly after the feet arrival,
which served as a meeting ground for
old friends and the making of new
friendships. The delightful part about
it thereafter was that time enough re-
manned for the officers to see something
of these friends.

shrubbery and trees well trimmed, but
all the shutters are up and no one but
caretakers are in evidence. 1t is the
home of Claus Spreckels, the sugar
king, whose successful ventures in Ha-

business here caused him to leave Ha-
waii twelve or fourteen years ago with
vow never to return. but he still owns
the house, and it is fully furnished
