slider, thai of the voters of the sixth

the faction that was IN favor of ex-
pediting matters and going ahead at

torial convention shall have adjourned,

At Seven-thIrty {. l.. Crabbe, chair
man Of the county committee, called
the convention 10 order. but his voice
was almost drowned by the fall Of rain
on the iron roof. Secretary called the
roll with results as follows:

ton was declared ready for business.

chair he believed the convention would

cheers and applause.

the different delegations announce the
vote of their delegations. Carried. j.
H. Boyd arose to discuss the motion to
vote by delegations but was told he
was too late as the matter had been
settled.

Breckons and his cigarette were in

minutes when committee of two was
delegated to escort him to the platform.
The tw7 men took him by the arms,
and although he hung on to the smoke
as long as possible, he really had to
drop it when he reached the platform,
so as to address the convention.
Jimmie Lloyd, Of Siberia, was made
secretary of the convention on account
of his ability to write shorthand. Then

Permanent Organization.


J. p. Cooke moved that the tempo
rarv officers be made the permanent
officers of the convention. The motion
was put by Mr.. Cooke and passed unani-
mously.
Breckons said he had prepared to say
q number of good things about them,
but he would wait until he felt they
would Justify his prophecy.
He tried to get the Delegate on the
platform, and he said "No,' but, he
said, he wouldn t until the chairman
mad Il certain speech about it all.
He knew and felt that the speech he
had carefully prepared would not need
revision when they were through. The
honest body of men which he saw be-
fore him could not 90 wrong, With the
assistance Of the interpreter, he intend
ed 10 make that speech.
The convention vigorously applauded
the compliment to itself.
The next matter is, when are nomi-
nations to be made?' said the chair.
There We're differences of opinion.
Some politicians said it should 90 over
until after the territorial convention.
He therefore wanted an expression of
opinion. He asked the chairman of the
fourth of the fourth as to what course
his delegation wished to pursue.
Wanted to Defer.
Mr.. Cooke said his delegation was in
favor of postponing all action until
after the territorial convention had met.
They could not proceed inteligently be
fore the platform was adopted The
county platform should be consistent
with the territorial platform. The dele
cation was IN favor of having the
whole business 60 over until after the
territorial convention had passed upon
its platform. after which all nomina-
tions should be made.
Mr. Cooke asked to hear from other
cha rmen and suggested a vote be taken
by delegations.
T. \. DOuthitt said many delegates
Were from the country districts at some
expense. \ platform committee could
be appointed tonight to confer with
the territorial delegates and report this
morning. He believed the convention
should 90 ahead and finish its work at
once. Applause followed this state
ment.

Kakaako Protest Ignored.

The committee held a session, at
which the protest of the sixth precinct
was ignored on the ground that the
protestants had failed at the primary
nominating meeting to put in its list
of nominees in writing. In the sew
enth of the fourth. Nihu MAMMAL was
put in the delegation in place of Chas.
Costa, absent Sonny Gay was made
proxy for De Coito on wireless re,
quest from De Coito, who is in Kauai.
Chairman Breckons said that with
one exception all names would be mem
hers Of the convention, and this would
be explained by the chairman of the
committee.
Chairman Douthitt of the credentials
committee made a brief explanation of
the sixth precinct protest, as above
shown. The report was accepted, on
motion of J. H. Boyd of the first of the

Oratory Lackin g.

Oratory was not much in evidence

political Demosthenes were put out oil

that as it may, all the speeches were

No Oratorical Fireworks.

Mr.. Breckons said it was too damp
for oratorical fireworks, and he would
leave that for tie permanent chairman.
He said. however, he had heard a re-
quest for Delegate kuhio to come up

him on the platform, but get him in the

then called for the election of a tenn

SENSIBLE PHILANTHROPY.
Twenty Thousand Dollars to Be Loan

Men OF great wealth and of philan-
thropic bent who are considering
means of doing good for humanity
will do well to read the win of the
late Peter B. Burns, of Liberty, Mo.
Mr.. Burns was not a millionaire. He
was one OF that rather numerous
class in this country the representa-
tives of which are spoken of in the
press as having "amassed a compe-
tence," generally by hard work and
close economy" Mr.. Burns died not
long ago, leaving an estate somewhat
in excess of $4,000. The terms Of
his will have just been made public.
The entire estate Is left 10 the widow

of Clay. ito be administered by the
county court in loans to men who de-
sire to build homes" The loans. 1t
is provided, may not exceed $4,000
to single individual. They are to
bear interest at per cent. They are
TO be secured by mortgage on the
real estate, and they are to be paid
back at the rate OF at least 800 a
year.
Half of Mr.. Burns estate will
amount to $4,000. Should the county
court 20 the limit in loans. under
the provisions of the will, ten men
could borrow $4,000 each. and thus
enter upon BODYBUILDING enterprise.
Should the court limit the loans to
81 600, 20 men would be benefited,
while $500 loans would enable 40 men
to make start in life as property
lcwning citizens. AS the fund per-
petuates itself. II may readily be seen
that its benefits are likely TO be far
reaching. II presents an opportunity
whereby a good many Industrious and
deserving men may be enabled 10 Sc

such assistance they could not hope
to do so.
Home owners generally are good
