Roosevelt Man Opposes Third
Party Here in Interests
OF Organization

Returning from Hilo this morning
Joel Cohen took occasion to announce
that he will be a candidate. for the
Senate at the coming election. He
also declared that although he IS a
Roosevelt man, he is opposed to the
formation of third party, more parr
ticularly in Hawaii, where he declares
such move would be fatal to the suc-
cess of the Republican cause in the
Territorial elections.
Il had not intended to ANNOUNCE my
candidacy at this time" said Mr.. Cohen
this morning, but talked of my pur-
pose in Hilo, and as the news has
reached Honolulu, 1t may be said that
am in the race.
In this connection want to go on
record as being opposed to the fornia-
ton of third party in Hawaii. I am
a Roosevelt man, and wanted to see
him nominated at Chicago / believe
that he would have swept the country
for Republican victory. and / also
believe that if he runs as third party
nominee, President Taft will be the
third man in the race.
But notwithstanding my views as to
Roosevelt. / believe a third party in
the Islands would only result in de-
stroying the Republican organization
here and giving the Democrats the vic
tory The latter were never so strong
as they are now. If we had an cleo
toral vote there would be reason for
us to be interested in the national
scrap and make the good OF the local
organization subservient to the national
organization. But without such a vote
figure that with third party we
have everything to lose and nothing to
win. We would destroy ouraorganiza-
tion here without adding the weight
of grain of mustard seed to the ma
tional issue
7 I'm my opinion things should be left
as they are until the convention. when
the majority can determine whether the
party here Is progressive or stand pat !"

WASHINGTON HAS
SMALL FAITH in
"PROGRESSIVES''
By c. S. ALBERT.

Especial Correspondence, Star Bulletin. i
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June 27-
The Liberal or Progressive party, '.in-
formally" formed In Chicago. by the
delegates who refrained from voting
when the presidential nomination was
made, does not seem destined to be-
come either formidable or aggressive
in the opinion of politicians here Al
though Colonel Roosevelt was pro-
claimed the candidate chosen by this
mis-called rumot convention, it is con-
sidered doubtful whether a real as
semblage will even be held to ratify the
pronouncement made There is talk of
gathering at Denver in August, where
the Liberals or Progressives will frame
up platform and choose nominees for
President and Vice President, but the
wise ones shake their heads and say
this will never be called to order.
The old warhorses here declare that
the Roosevelt delegates met and enun-
ciated their faith in the colonel as a
salve TO his fallen pride and wounded
feelings. 1t was simply like giving a
lump of sugar TO small boy after
getting his fingers mashed 1t is said
that all the followers of the colonel
who are candidates for office on regu-
lar tickets can not afford to accept his
newly-raised standard and march un~
der it, Governor Stubs of Kansas is
mentioned as an illustration of this
maxim. He is an avowed candidate for
the United States Senate. He can not
hope for success as a bolter 1t is es-
sential above all things that he remain
in the party as now constituted and
make his fight along regular lines.
Those supporting him can not afford to
be classified as out of the organiza-
tion.

TALKS Of AMENDMENT

John r. McCrosson, the irrigation
king, returned intthe Wilhelmina this
morning from Washington, where he
has spent some months in the inter.
est of the Kau ditch franchise bill.
He comes home feeling well as
sured that the bin win become law
at. the present session. Seen at the
Alexander YouAg Hotel by. a Star
Bulletin reporter, he was asked about
the sidetracking of the bill in the
Senate, as reported by a correspond
ent Of this paper through the objec-
ton of, Mr. Bristow to taking it up
" hen reached IN the Senate.
@Mr. BristOw's objection was mere
ly on account Of the absence of Mr..
Poindexter, a member Of the commit,
tee on the Pacific Islands and Port
Rico. who was away doing politics.
1T was desirable Ito have Mr.. Poin-
dexter present, owing to q pending

Limited Capitalization.
.This amendment would limit the
capitalfzation 0f DE cBInpaHF TO So
500 .000 bonds and SIS, 500. 900 stock.
We felt that this would injure the
chances of the bill, as our intention
is to have just about half of that
amount ito build the ditch. What
would hurt us is the proposition that

Still it would injure our interests

lieve it will pass at this session j.

Mr.. K. M. Watson is looking after
the matter there.
Not Fighting Amendment.
There is no fight on our part but
merely a difference among the mem
bers of the committee. 1t is imma-
terial to us whether the amendment
goes in or, not. excepting for the one
thing that if it goes in the bill will
have to go to conference.

That seems to be the opinion Of al
