Washington Notified,
Cables and letters were dispatched to
Washington yesterday purporting to
give the records of various persons en-
dorsed by the McCandless faction and
alleging that the Territory would suf-
fer great injury should any of those
named be permitted to hold office.
Special emphasis was laid upon the
fact, it is stated, that the territorial
committee does not represent tho
Democrats of the Islands, but only one
man, and that had it not been for politi-
cal trickery, this committee would not
be constituted as at present.
The Democratic leaders are partic-
ularly indignant at the affront which
they claim has been offereL them, by
the refusal of the committee to endorse
Col. c. ]. Mccarthy, war horse of the
party, for collector of customs, and the
selection of Eddie Duisenberg for the
place. 1t is charged that Duisenberg
is Democrat of but two weeks stand
ing, that he has never been known
either in the party councils or at the
polls as n Democrat and that it would
be a great injustice to the workers of
the party to consider him under any
circumstances.
Duisenberg is put forward by Link
McCandless, in person, it is stated on
the ground that Mccarthy had snubbed
McCandless in his gubernatorial aspi-
rations. The feeding on McCandless
part, however, is said to date back but
few years when he as n Republican
was beaten by Mccarthy, Democrat
for the senate McCandless switched
shortly afterwards, but it is said that
he has never forgiven Mccarthy for
having been a Democrat long before
he east his fortune with the party.
The endorsement of c. d. Pringle
for collector of internal revenue is not
considered seriously, it is said, save
that it reflects on the intelligence of
the members of the committee and
makes the others on the list a subject
for jest.
A Sorry Jest.
, While it was generally stated yester-
day that Pringle is under federal in
dictment of violating the Edmunds
, Act, it appears that this is not the case.
lie was indicted but the case was nolle
pressed. District Attorney Breckons
said yesterday that this disposition had
been made of the charges. "It was
represented to me- he said, "that
, Pringle would not violate the law in
the future and that prosecution would
interfere with his prospects, and
, would be poor and unworthy creature
, should / cast an obstacle in the path
of man whose political career seems
TO be opening up with such meteoric
splendor."
hound Up With Link.
While under ordinary circumstances,
, it is not probable that there would be
. opposition to the other candidates en-.
dorsed for federal Offices, it is believed
, that with the feeling as at present,
the fight will be carried along the line
and they win have to sink or SWIM
, with their leader.
IT is also limited that If McCandless
fails to secure the plum he is after, no
one OF his adherents will be given a
chance to secure any governmental 20.

probable that the few adherents uf the
