nomination of Brown would lead to
dangerous party split.
John Wise is another Republican
choice for sheriff and the party man
ayers think he could easily beat lau-
kea if named by the Republicans
A lot of quiet work is beng done by
Achi and his lieutenants to organize a
little Achi machine with which the
other parties may have to reckon
Achi's pet notions appear to be to get
revenge on the Advertiser and to in
sert knife as deeply as possible into
the political frame OF Charley Hustace.
Il have helped the Republicans every
campaign" said the politically indus
trious Achi, 'and all / got was abuse
from the Advertiser. l want to go in
to the next Republican convention and
force it to name ticket at the dlcta-
tiOn of the Advertiser. Then see how
many on the ticket would win. The
party couldn't have won before with
out me and it cannot elect anyone now.
Charley Hustace? l am in favor OF
nominating him for mayor. | will
work for his nomination, just to show
what can do afterwards. He cannot
be elected"
In other words, Achi would like to
get the nomination for Hustace in or
der to have the chance of using the
knife in the campaign.

TRUSTEES OF THE CHAMBER OF
FREAR TO NEGOTIATE WITH SURGEON GENERAL wYMAN-
PLEDGE $4,000 AS CONTRIBUTION FROM HoNoLULu-lN
TERBSTING LETTER JUDGE HATCH

The special meeting of the trustees
which was called by President Morgan
of the Chamber of Commerce for this
morning at the Chambers rooms in
the Stangenwald building, convened
shortly after o'clock, the business be-
ing finished before $3.50.
Letters were read from James f.
Morgan, president, and Judge F. NJ
Hatch, the Chambers agent at Wash
ington, and resolutions were unani-
mously passed, giving Governor Frear
full power to consult with the Surgeon
General of the Marine Hospital Ser
vice on the plan for cleaning up GER
tain parts of Honolulu that are breed
ing grounds for the dreaded mosquito
Thefollowing members were appoint
ed by President Morgan to be known
as the Naval Committee: Messrs. Car
ter, Ivers and Denison.
FROM PRESIDENT MORGAN.
Following is the letter with which
President Morgan acquainted the trus-
tees with the purpose of the meeting:
Honolulu, April IA, 1908.
Trustees, Honolulu Chamber of Com
merce.
GeDtlemen:-For some time past, I
have been considering the appointment
of a special committee from the mem
bers of this Association to be known
as the Army and Navy Committee, and
ask your approval of this course.
l believe that, where there will be
numerous expenditures for work in
both the Army and, Navy lines, we
should have a special committee to
keep in touch with these matters.
/ know that persons at the head of
these different branches here would
greatly appreciate the fact that the
Chamber of Commerce thinks enough
of them and their work to have a spe-
cial committee keeping in touch with
them.
There are also other matters that
require active work and this can be
better done by a regular committee
than by a special one.
One of the matters that come to my
mind now is the fact that all groceries
and supplies for the Army are import
ed from San Francisco, when these or
ders could be placed with the mer-
chants of Honolulu.
Another matter that affects our
trade here is the fact that all trans
ports, after leaving Manila, pay their
troops previous to reaching Nagasaki
and this money is spent there, when 1
think work done by a Committee, such
as I have named, can induce the au-
thorities to have the payments to
troops so made that the money will be
spent here.
We will continue to have larger and
larger appropriations for fortifications
under the charge of the Army, and al
so for Pearl Harbor under the charge
of the Navy, and this committee could
always be in thorough touch with
these departments, and would l feel
assured, be able to render assistance
that would be appreciated by those in
charge of the works, and which would
also prove of great value to the COM
munity.
There are a great many other mat
ters, which, think, can be studied up,
and l respectfully ask that be allow
ed to appoint this committee.
Respectfully yours,
j. f. MORGAN,
President

Whereas, though apparently entirely
free from plague and other contagious
diseases, it is desirable that every
means should be used to place the city
in the best possible sanitary condition,
and keep it so both on account of local
interests and those of the Pacific coast.
Now, Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, that
Honorable Walter F. Frear, Governor
of the Territory of Hawaii, who is
about to visit Washington, be request
ed to call upon Surgeon General wy
man, Chief of the U. S. Quarantine
Service, and request him to authorize
the immediate expenditure of the sum
of fifteen thousand dollars in effecting
a thorough cleaning up of the port of
Honolulu, and
BIT 1t Further Resolved, that Gov
ernor Frear be and is hereby author
lied to promise in the name of the
Chamber of Commerce a contribution
from the business interests of Homo
lulu of five thousand dollars to be used
for the same purpose. The eXpendi-
ture of the entire amount to be under

FROM JUDGE HATCH.
Here is the letter from Judge Hatch
Stoneleigh Court,
Washington, d. c., April 6, 1908.
Mr.. H. P. Wood, Secretary Chamber Of
Commerce, Honolulu, Hawaii.
Dear Mr.. Wood:-I was interested in
reading in the papers your report to
the Chamber of Commerce of your trip
l wish you could have remained in
Washington until today to have heard
the debate on the Pearl Harbor bill.
Perhaps it is not very accurate to call
it a debate as the speeches were all
on one side. | have never seen any
thing like it in my experience here.
You can have the satisfaction of think
ing that your work bore speedy fruit
when the time finally came for a con-
sideration of the measure by the House.
Hawaii can congratulate itself upon
the passage of this measure through
the House, even if nothing more shall
be accomplished during the session.
There is no reason to believe that
there will be any difficulty in the Sem
ate. The bill goes there with the pres
tige of practically a unanimous vote
back of it. AS Mr.. Slayden of Texas
stated on the floor, that though he had
been opposed to the annexation of Ha-
waii he welcomed the opportunity to
show to the country how political diff
ferences could be laid aside the mo-
ment a measure of national impor-
tance was presented to Congress for
consideration
Sincerely yours.

MY EASTER ISLANDS.
By w. f. SABIN.

Inspiration islands, bounded,
By a joyous, singing sea,
By an ocean ever chanting
Mysteries of melody,
Are ye not my Easter Islands,
Where the flowers of promise grow
In the cloisters of your valleys
Heavenly halls, where, to and fro
Spirits wander, soft communing,
And the angels come and go?
Resurrection isles, surrounded
By a sweeping sapphire flood
Thou art all my soul imagines
OF a wonder-world of good,
In thy glory all the symbols
All the signs of mystery
Speak their hope and full assurance
Of the things that are to be
AS I SOW in this, Gods garden,
Shall l gather presently.

It IS a year of borders and all eS- pensive silks admit a frieze that seems 10 deny the need of any further orna- Mentatlon. A particularly effective border noted in one shop window oc- cured on a natural colored rajah of hotlceably lustrous finish, against which pattern of dark reds and greens offered a harmony of colors that should have been particularly tempting to brunette.
 1 The career of the checked seems Tar rom being checkered. For over year its course of popularity has been running smooth and the advance showing of spring styles reveals the 1act that the check still occupies its 1 former place in the affection of de- signers. Particularly does the parasol exhibit this partiality and whole win 1 dows full of black and white taffeta further maintain the permanence of l the taste.
 Nothing could be prettier than the new ribbons made of watered silk, which are as fashionable for the old world 'quizzlng glass or for the fancy muff. These ribbon chains are always made in black and half-inch ribbon is the correct width: they are finished off with tiny buckles of small dia- monds on one side and the other some special charm or a miniature mono gram-the latter also In diamonds or in the same stones as the clasps.
 Many of the new shirt waist of linen are solidly tucked at front and back and are without the frills at plait and cuff edges that were so attractive and dainty last year. Instead the front box plait is made in the color of the embroidered dot. for the smartest ones are so embellished. and there is a hem of the color at cuff top and edge of accompanying jabot. the stock or turnover collar, as the case may be- finished to correspond A belt of the plain color is also provided and the wearer will be neatness personified
