ENDORSEMENT
PINKHAM UNANI-
MOUSLY APPROVED BY REPUB-
LICAN EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.

The executive committee of the Re
publican Territorial Committee held a
special meeting yesterday afternoon at
5 o'clock. The meeting was specially
called for the purpose Of considering
the endorsement of i. f. Pinkham, for
reappointment to the position OF Pres1-
dent of the Board of Health, and did
SO unanimously. The matter was
brought up for discussion and while
there were several who wished to, and
did express sentiments very favorable
to the gentlemen in question not a
negative voice could be heard.
The only matter which caused any
criticism was the attempt which was
made in a communication, signed by
w. r. Castle, in the morning paper to
bring in a mistaken view of the Wal
ZACH matter as it now stands. 1t was
declared that, in view of what has
been learned by the HaWaiians in re-
gard to Wallach of late, they are by
no means against Pinkham for the ac-
ton taken against the faker.

ACTION is
I'LL ADVISED

The general feeling among the bust
ness men in town, concerning the ac-
ton of the Japanese in getting up a
mass meeting to down President Pink
ham, is that they are entirely wrong,
and have no right to NEEDLE with the
affairs of an American administration.
One prominent man in talking about
the matter this morning stated that
it was getting to be a fine condition of
affairs in the Territory, should the
Governor consent to listen to the &C
lions of the Japanese regarding the
appointment of an official
Il consider that they are barking up
the wrong tree, and if by any chance
the Governor listens to the action of
the Japanese at their mass meeting, it
will surprise me very much.
IF we tried any such actions in
Japan we would soon be told to mind
our own business 1 am in favor of
President Pinkham, and l sincerely
hope that he will be re-appointed.'
George w. Smiths ideas on the maj
ter, received in writing, are here given,
he being president of the Merchants
Association:
Those who are promoting the meet
ing of Japanese citizens are, to say the
least, i'll advised. Il do not think that
a meeting of Americans, or any other
foreigners, in a Japanese city, held for
the purpose of protesting against the
appointment o. Japanese official,
would be permitted for one moment"
q, A. McInerny, another member of
the Merchants Association, in talking
about the matter this morning stated
that he thoroughly agreed with Mr..
Smiths ideas on the subject II have

on Hawaii he will be certain of the po-
sition.
Last of all comes the Oahu man, for
Cupid and Robertson are considered as
candidates at large from all the islands,
the one being Delegate to Congress and
the other National Committeeman.
This will be the fight of the day. Sen
ator j. M. Dowsett, A. L. G. Atkinson,
and Senator John c. Lane are the
three to fight, with R. W. Breckons
looming up in the background, as a
dark horse, who may be called in ii
there should be a very close contest.
Breckons has said that he did not want
the position, as, if he could be in Chi
cago at the time, all he would want
would be a seat on the floor and he
could obtain that from either the local
delegation as an alternate, or from the
Wyoming delegation, all of whom
are sure to be his old time friends.
John Lane is a new man in the
fight, but it is understood that he
wants the place and he can give any Of
the others a hard fight What Atllin-
son will do is hard to say. He has
become so accustomed to saying that
he does not want any office that many
will find it hard to take him in earnest
if he does want this. 1t looks as if the
fight would be between Lane and Dow
sete.
This matter may be settled however
without any fight in the convention, as

Fifth districts have been called to-
gether in caucus tomorrow afternoon at
