ROOSEVELT MEN PL AN ACTION
|KUHIO MAY BE ASKED TO JOIN
Progressiyes
To Work In
Hawaii

The Progressive Party. the outcome
of the Chicago convention fight, is
TO be launched in Hawaii, according
to tentative plans brought back from
the mainland by former Governor
George r. Carter and A. L. G. At,
kinson.
In answer TO a question by the Star
Bulletin this morning, Mr.. Carter
stated that advices from the organiza-
ton committee are now awaited, and
that these will determine the proceed.
ure here
I'VE have asked the organization
committee to notify us-some one OF
Ls-as to the plans of the conven-
tion, when and where it is to be held,
and we. are hoping to send DELEGATES
from Hawaii to this convention,
said Mr.. Carter.
1T is barely possible the Progress
sive convention may indorse Wood
row Wilson, the Democratic nominee.
This convention is to be held prob
ably and preferably near the end of
July.
Carrying Roosevelt badges, souve-
Mrs and emblems by the score, with
newspaper accounts of the conven-
ton, its prelude and it's aftermath, by
the bundle, and voicing Indignation
at the treatment given the Roosevelt
delegates, Carter and Atkinson came
back on the Mongolia yesterday
morning and within twenty-four hours
there are signs nointings plainly to
the possibility that the Progressive
movement here may be tied up with
Kuhio's recently announced fight
against Frear.
Want Local Strength.
Kuhio's strength is wanfed to lend
local strength to the Progressive
movement. e
Though both Carter and Atkinson
are uncertain as to immediate deyel-
opm ents locally, the StarBulletin can
state positively that already feelers
have been put out to test the possi-
bility of a combine with Kuhio's
forces.
On the same steamer that brough
back the two Roosetelt enthusiasts,
there came Charley Rice of Kauai,
Col. Sam Parker, John Wise and Al
Q. Marcallino, delegates. alternates
or onlookers at the big political show
in Chicago last month.
Stories by the wholesale as to the
convention and Hawaii's part We're,
let loose when all the politicians got
on terra firma. On one hand, thel
Roosevelt men declare with indignaJ
ton that right and justice was tramp
led on fiagrantly at Chicago. thatl
Taft is already beaten, that Roose-l
velt is sure winner if the Progress
i've convention nominates him, that
Hawaii ought to jump in the Progress
i've ranks.

RECUPERATING
IN CALIFORNIA

Allan Herbert, member of the Ha-
waiian delegation to the Democratic
convention at Baltimore, was unable to
go to the convention on account of
Illness, and, instead. went to Arrow
head Springs, Cal, to recuperate.
This news was received here by
friends of DR.. st. d. G. Walters, DR..
Walters writing that Mr.. Herbert is
showing every sign of recovering
from the strain of travelling. He was
ordered to take a rest. The news
came from California the latter part
of June and therefore Mr.. Herbert's
friends feel cetain that there is no
need for worry.
There was report some time ago
as to Mr.. Herbert's condition, but the
letter from DR.. Walters is the first
definite word that Mr.. Herbert's many
friends have had.
NJ Herbert would have been, it is
said, the oldest delegate at Baltimore.

time.''
That the vote was protest against
the steam-roller methods by which
two delegates were grabbed from the
California RooseNelters and by which
other Roosevelt men were blocked
from the convention, is said to be
only partly true, and. that Hawaii had
something else besides this In mind.
The local delegation, going instruct
ed so far as Taft himself was con-
cerned, could not jockey on the no.
mination, but could maneuver in the
other skirmishes.
The Chicago Daily News caught
Jack Coney of Kauai in communlca-
tive mood and published the follow
ing story on Saturday, June %:
There is one group of delegates on
the floor of the Coliseum who have
missionary conscience They are
the Hawaiians.
Some of the things done here look
pretty rotten to us" said John II.
Coney, member of the delegation, to-
day, when asked what the Hawaiians,
who are instructed for Taft, thought
of the proceedings at the convention.
I'VE are instructed for Taft" con-
tinued Mr., Coney, "but we don't fe.:1
we can endorse all the Taft people
do here That is why Hawaii's six
votes have been cast so variously. We
vote according to what we think is
right"
"Hawaiians have missionary con-
science" said Charles Wilcox, anoth
er member of the party. Perhaps
that explains the vote to you"
