One of the interesting incidents in
the closing hours of the convention
was a proposed compromise between
the Frear and Kuhio forces
1t seems that a suggestion, first
voiced by Colonel Sam Parker in his
address nominating Kuhio, in sub
stance that the six delegates to be
elected should be evenly divided was
later made by him to certain men,
bers of the Taft League. AS a result
Of this suggestion a recess was taken
in order to enable the contesting
forces to caucus separately upon this
proposit on Colonel Sam Parker sub
mitted to the Taft League caucus the
proposition that if Messrs. Moir and
Renton would withdraw a ticket made
up as below could be nominated by
acclamation. Upon this ticket were
to be the names of Governor Frear,
Delegate Kuhio, Sol. H. Holstein, II.
A, Baldwin, either r. W. Shingle or
A. l.. c. Atkinson as the Kuhio fac
ton might conclude, and c. A. Rice.
Colonel Sam Parker also stated that
they would be willing to concede the
election of G. A. Rice as National
committeeman, and that they would
support for alternates the nominees
of the Taft League This matter was
fully discussed in caucus, and in the
interests of party harmony looking to

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
WASHINGTON, April 4-From the
character of the questions asked by
members of the House committee on
appropriation, at an all-day hearing
on the Waianae-uka water rights, it
would appear that the members of
the committee are of much the same
opinion as the Secretary of War, who
believes the concession a valuable
one for which the government is at
present receiving very little; that
these water rights should not be dis
posed of, but turned to account for
the benefit of the government

Tie Sunday School convention
which came off Thursday, Aug. y,
was a grand success although the rain
kept back good many. 1t rained un-
til about eight O clock. Those that
lived far away did not get to the CON
ventiOn, that time of the day being
about the time for those people to start
from home. At any rate the crowd
was estimated at one thousand or
more. On the ground there were sew
en- lemonade stands and they sold out
everything they had The tables were
three feet wide and two hundred feet
long, and were full and packed with
good things to eat, and after all had
eaten what they wanted there was
many basketful taken back home.
On account of the rain the Sunday
schools did not all come out. The
speaking was grand. W. &. M.
Thomas, of Chattanooga, made one of
the finest talks on Sunday schools that
ever was made at Shiloh Convention.
He went way back in the time of
Christ in the teaching of the Sunday
school, and on to the present. He gave
the dates of all he sp oke of. He gave
the date of the first Sunday school con
ventiOn and where it was held, gave
the number of Sunday school students
in the United States from way back
over hundred years ago, gave the
number up to date, which went into
millions, and then said that our les
sons which we have every Sunday are
also taught to those millions.
Dr. Gardner. of Fiat Rock, Ala,
spoke to the point. r. A. Paris gave
a fine illustration of the Lost Oppor-
unity W. R. Tolman on Temper
ance," was good. He is a fine speak
er. The singing of the various classes
was good. VIM. Loach's infant class
of ffty-two did excellently. Those
lat ran the lemonade stands did a
Ahing, and it was appreciated by
l rents of the children, by treat

William Barnes. Jr, of ALBANY gave
out an interview at Washington in
which he stated that he is opposed to
Roosevelt because OF his Colum bus
speech which he holds to be- contrary
to republicanism. The Roosevelt men
have been coddling up to Mr.. Barnes
for several months, hoping that he
might land on the Colonel's side Of the
fence. Two years ago they lambasted
Barnes as the exemplitication of all
that is vicious in politics but after the
slap that Roosevelt got in the New
York election they concluded that Mr..
Barnes ism as bad as he was painted
aud even the Colonel is credited with
having said that Barnes ism I such a
