Fifth District Men.
Two of the former members of the
house from the fifth district are. almost
certain Of denomination and reelection.
These are kaleiopu, who has done good
work as chairman of the land commit
tee, and Correa, who expedited the
work of the last session by presiding
over the printing committee. Both are
good, clean men and deserve reelection

ways, wants to run on the Republican
ticket. He is one of the oldtime Ha-
wanans and politician of note
Frank Archer, formerly a supervisor
is also In line for nomination.
Frank Fernandez, who was elected
to the convention from the eleventh of
the fifth with Sam Dwight, the only
two on their ticket to pull through, is
also candidate for the house. Fer
nandez has been one Of the strong
party workers in the fifth for years and
stands well among his associates. He
has progressive ideas, one being that
the city ought to be allowed to bond
itself for three hundred thousand dol
lars Tor permanent improvements. an
other that the district magistrate ought
to be elected and not appointed by the
supreme court. He also favors extend
ing county control in many things, es-

Senatorial Aspirants.
There are three long term senators

A. +. Judd is believed to stand good
chances of landing one Of the four
nominations. The only objection voiced
against his candidacy comes in the
tact that he is in the same precinct as
Amana and Correa, who expect to get
on the ticket. There is a n1urmuring
against one precinct getting too much
