TALKED OF PANAMA FAIR
If Only One Exposition BE Held
He Favors Having 1t on
Pacific Coast.

SAN FRANCISCO, May l2.-There 10
great rejoicing here over the favorable
reception by President Taft of the
claims of San Francisco as the suitable
place for holding the Panama EXPOSE
tion in 1915, although the President left
loophole in his endorsement should he
have need for advocating the holding Of
another exposition IN any other city in
celebration of the opening Of the Pana.
ma Canal.
The President was the guest at dinner
last night of the San Francisco delega-
tion at Washington, at which the claims
of this city were urged upon him. In
his reply he stated that if it be decided
to celebrate the opening of the Panama
Canal by the holding of a worlds fair
in any one city, he believed that San
Francisco was the city that should be
selected. 1t was logical that such q
selection should be made, he said.
The question is one for congress to
decide, the President said in conclusion,
but if congress thought best that only
one celebration should be held, his in
fuence would be counted upon to have
San Francisco named as the place for
that celebration.

The organization of the prohibition
party is proceeding systematically, the
workers including many of the most
prominent men in Honolulu. A com
mittee of one hundred is being formed
and upon this committee viii devolve
the work of carrying on. the campaign,
which is TO be actively entered upon
before the beginning Of June.
The committee includes leaders
among the Hawaiians and the haoles,
prominent church members and leading
citizens without church affiliations,
prominent politicians, members 81 the

merchants, plantation managers, CAPT

Rev. M. SNakuina is on the list and
Abraham Fernandez will represent the
Mormon community, while scores of
others have agreed to serve.
The women of Honolulu are also ac-
lively organizing. for two.fold pur.
pose; they will work to bring out a
strong vote among the men who favor
prohibition, for the regular polling, and
they will work to secure as full a poll
as possible of the women at their own
straw vote election some day before
July 26. The twenty-seven women q
organizations that petitioned congress
to allow them to vote at the pleibiscite
are to combine in the straw balloting,
and the effect of their plebiscite is
expected to be felt very materially
when the voters decided for or against
the saloons on plebiscite day.
Almost without an exception, the re-
ports received in town from the other
islands are to the effect that prohibit
ton will carry with good majorities
on every island. with this to reassure
them, the prohibition workers on Ga.
hu are going into the fight determined
to bring Oahu into line with a big
majority also and have the vote by
islands unanimously against the con.

ing desperately but silently. There's is
not side that can be openly defended
very well. Antiprohibition leaders
are naturally retiring and the most
noise has to be made when any ex.
pressions favorable to their cause can
be obtained from someone outside OF
the business. AS matter of fact, the
saloon business has not yet found an
open defender in the Territorys There
are those who do not believe that the
best method of suppressing saloons is
found in prohibition and their opinions
are heralded forth to support the
saloon.
