OPENING SESSION OF
REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
CONTEST IN
PROSPECT
JOHN LANE AND DOWSETT RIVALS
FOR DELEGATESHIP TO THE MA
TIONAL CONVENTION.

The only fight which is expected in
the Republican convention tonight will
be over the election of the delegate to
Chicago from this island. This is be-
tween John Lane and J. NJ. Dowsett,
the former having all the advantage.
1t is thought that Lane will receive the
position, but that Dowsett will be elect
ed an alternate which will entitle him
to seat on the floor, probably all that
he wants.
The Oanu delegration has not made
any decision in regard to the solid sup
port of any one candidate and in all
probability will not do so but will fight
the matter out when it comes to voting.
Lane will probably have the support OF
the majority of the local delegation and
of the majority of Hawaii, while Dow
sett's friends claim Maui and Kauai for
him. If Dowsett was here himself to
look after the matter it would be a
close contest, but Lane should win out
hands down under the existing condi-
tions.
w. G. Walker, the manager of Ookala
plantation, will be the choice of the Ha-
waii delegation ana Will receive the
support of the other islands according
to custom. In caucus this morning
Maui voted to support w. T. Robinson
| to represent her, his name being placed
| in nomination by H. P. Baldwin. Joa-
quin Garcia will be Maui's alternate.
I e. A. Knudsen will be the Kauai dele
gate and all the islands are solid in
support of Kuhio and Robertson for
the delegates at large.
! That the delegates will be sent with
free hand and will not have instruc-
tions to vote for anyone, is certain,
though it is possible that the conyen-
! tion may express the wish that Ha-
waits votes on the first ballot shall be
cast for President Roosevelt, in the
! hope that he may be forced to accept a
third term. Tnere is absolutely no
chance of sending a Taft instructed
delegation as all the island caucuses
have decided against such a move. The
general sentiment, however, seems tc
be for Taft

jury is called for next Monday.
Bench warrants were issued for three
members of the grand jury who failed
to appear at 10 o'clock, the time for
which they were called. These deIin-

were sworn in and then excused until 2
O'Clock this afternoon, are as follows:

Dr. l.. E. Cofer has been appointed
by Governor Frear, President of the
Board of Health to succeed L. e. Pink
ham.
The new head of the Territorial
health department is at the present
time chief quarantine officer ana past
assistant surgeon of the United States
Marine Hospital Service, and has full
charge of the Federal Health depart
ment in the Territory Inc appoint
ment was made this morning after a
cable from Surgeon General Wyman
authorizing the proposition, had been
received.
In order to keep within the statute
requiring the board of health to be
made up Of four laymen, two physi-
clans, and the attorney general, an
eX-ofiicio member, Dr.. w. ID. Baldwin
rendered his resignation from the board
and in his place was appointed James
f, Morgan. DR.. Wayson being the other
physician on the board the changes
made makes the organization of the
Board conform to the law
1 In referring to the retirement of Mr..
Pinkham from the head of the Board
of Health, Governor Frear dictated the
| following statement:
Mr. Pinknam deserves much credit
for what he has done while President
of the Board of Health He has per-
formed his duties very conscientiously
and put his heart into the work, and
has made many sacrifices both in way
of personal service and pecuniarily
For these reasons it has been
doubly hard to make a change, but
there were many things to be consider
| ed
Mr.. Pinkham has accepted the
change very gracefully, and indeed, in
formed me when ! first came into Of
flee that he wished me to understand
that change would be perfectly salts
| factory to him whenever it seemed
best to me. regret that attacks have
been made against him, but these have
probably served to bring out endorse
ments of him which might not other.

The Territory VIII be financially the
gamer by the new arrangement, mas
much as DR.. Cofer takes the duties OF
President without remuneration from
the Territory, whereas the place other
wise carries with it a salary of 1915 per
month.
1t is generally believed that, in case
Cofer coulr not have accepted the place
Pinkham would have been re-appointed
and the opponents of the late President
who so bitterly and vindictively assail-
ed him in opposing his re-appointment,
can scarcely consider the change a
victory for themselves
The appointment of j. F. Morgan in
place of Dr. Baldwin, can neither be
considered in a move to appease any
party or faction.
Governor Frear spoke quite strongly
and made it very clear that the knock
ers have had little influence in his
action. He stated that he was very
glad to see that Mr. Pinkham had made
so many friends during his lncum-
