OF the island representative in Congress
Prince Kalanianaole. OF Hawaii. has served
the longest, having been elected fve times
by popular vote In the Hawaiian Islands.
He is probably the only heir to a throne
who ever graced the halls Of Congress.
Notwithstanding the fact that the ruling
family was overthrown and the Republic
Of Hawaii formed in 1893, Prince Kalania-
naole's personal popularity is attested by
the fact that In each Of the five elec-
tlons as delegate his vote has exceeded the
combined vote OF the other two candidates.
Delegate Kalanianaole is a cousin Of King
Kaiakaua and of Queen Liliuokalini. As
there was no direct heir TO the throne he
was created prince by royal proclamation
in 1884, and would have succeeded to the
throne had the kingdom continued. He is

Within a year the delegates in Congress
will represent only the far off possessions
Of the United States. The last territory
within the nations borders passes out of
existence with the admission to statehood
of Arizona, for New Mexico took its place
as state on January 6. and duly elected

A delegate in Congress may introduce
bills; he may interrupt the sessions Of the
House TO make a speech, move the passage
OF a bill or make a point of order against
a member; he has the franking privilege;
has an office in the official Office building,
and regularly draws the full salary and

represents, do not mean that the Islands

They believe that the problem can be

about six years the Filipino republic will

The position of tho Delegate in Congress
has always been source OF trouble. When

territories more numerous. the Delegates
wore frequently In controversy with MEM

could exercise.
AS a matter OF fact. although the Consti-
tuticn OF the United States provides only
for Senators and Representatives from
states, and does not mention Delegates
from territories. the Delegate was author
ized by the Continental Congress in 1857,
two years before the Constitution was
adopted.
