KUH|O'S FORCES
FORM FOR FIGHT
ALL BIG LEADERS PRESENT AT
SECRET MEETING AT YOUNG
HoTEI-PARKER TALKS.

That the Kuhio crowd is prepared to
fight through to the bitter finish the
scrap for control at the coming conven-
tion, was made mighty plain at an i'm
portant meeting in Cupid's headquar-
tiers on the second floor of the Young
building last night. Most of the promi-
nent faithful were there-the good,
tried and true wardogs of the faction,
with their belts buckled tight and
their faces set mighty grim.
1t would be like calling the roll
of the Cupid Political Blue Book to tell
all who were present, but among them
were such as Bob Breckons, Bob Shin
gle, Jack Atkinson, Charley Achi, Sam
Parker, Carl Widemann, James Holt,
John Lane and his faithful brothers,
H. Z. Murray of automobile fame, Eli
Crawford, F. w. Beckley, Robert Par
ker, John X. Motley and about sixty
others.
Large gobs of harmony oozed and
trickled on the gathering. Every one
was smeared with it, like small boys
! at jam fest. But just the same there
was not little trepidation evidenced
by the wise ones present who had been
following "events since the primary"
Sam Parker jumped into the Quaker
like stiffness that marked the prelimi-
naries, with volley in Hawaiian, ad-
dressed to Hawaiians, present and alb
sent. The burden of his song was

give proxies; go broke, but DOM give

chords to the time, but that was tht

incorporated. This, however, says
Desha had nothing to do with politics.
1t is quite true that members of the
board and others have written him adj
vising him to drop out of the Kuhio-
Frear fight, but this, says Desha, they
did only as friends, and there was no
threat made by them. Desha says that
he told them that he is not a 'fhaole-
hater,'' as he had been accused of
being, and that he himself deplored that
the color line was being drawn, and
would do all he could to eliminate all
race feeling from the convention. AS
a matter of fact, he had advised his
Hawaiian followers to place ON their
states some white men, provided that it
was certain that they were Kuhio men.
He had even suggested Terry, who was
known to be dissatisfied with the ad-
ministration, but it had been urged that
Terry had so many friends in the Frear
camp, that it was likely that he would
be won over when he came to Honolulu.
His name was therefore not placed on
the slate.
Board Not in Charge.
Desha added that while the Hail
Church stood on ground owned by the
Hawaiian Board, he had himself, while
in Boston, looked into the documents
relating to this matter, and had foun6
| that the church could not be ousteC
from this place, provided it continued

fathers. Furthermore, the Hawaiian
