throwing the vote OF Illinois TO Wood
row Wilson brought about his nominal
ton. thus ending the deadlock. The
Democracy OF the entire nation
breathed a sigh of relief and hailed
the result OF the Convention with re-
ioieing.
The course ct events following the
breaking Of the deadlock by the nom
ination Of Wilson fully established
the wisdom and patriotism Of the IL
linois delegation in this party crisis.
In this election the man who brought
about the nomination of Woodrow VIII
son Is seeking TO go to the United
states Senate that he may again give
his support to this great man who
now sits in the White House.
Illinois is the first state 10 declare
for Wilson for President in 1916 and
the issue in this campaign is the APP
prevail OF the Wilson administration.
This has been recognized by our OPP
ponents who have sent into Illinois
to lead the fight against the Wilson
polio es. Theodore Roosevelt. the
man who is expected to be the candi-
date Ct the opposition in 1916.
Emphasizing his loyalty To President
Wilson, Roger C. sullivan in his state
convention speech gave the progress
sive policies of the administration I'M
qualified endorsement, pledging his
hearty support to these policies II he
shall be elected. The following eX
tracts from his Springfield speech
make clear the attitude Of MIR. Sulli-

Our readers know that he was not

concerned, he is opposed to practically
all Of the progressive policies Of Presi-

believing in the principles of Democ
racy and In thorough accord with the
policies of President Wilson, we could
not support or advise any Democrat
to vote for Mr.. Sherman.

SULLIVAA'S STAND FOR WILSON
story OF How the Deadlock In the
Baltimore Convention Was Broken
by sullivan.

Roger C. Sullivan, the man whose
influence, more than that Of any other,
brought about the nomination OF Wood
row Wilson, again seeks the oppor-
tunity to throw the weight OF his sup
port to the President In this crucial
period when the United States needs
to call its strongest men to positions
Of power and responsibility.
In the Baltimore convention Of 1912,
the Illinois delegation was instructed
by the primary vote to support Champ
Clark of Missouri for President. Tn
der the rules of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention, long established. a
two-thfrds vote was necessary to nom
mate and no nomination was possible
80 long as all the delegations having
primary instructions followed those
Instructions. The Illinois delegation
was faithful to its instructions until
II became evident that Speaker Clark
could not be nominated. and after hav-
ing been In session a full week, the
Convention seemed doomed to an in
definite deadlock. The two-thirds rule
could not be set aside, and Speaker
Clark could not secure two-thirds
vote. The whole nation looked on
with anxious eyes and Democrats
throughout the land were subject to
the tibes and jests OF Republicans be-
cause OF the inability OF the Conven-
ton to reach a decision. II was a
crucial point In the history Of the
Democratic party; its fate was hang
ing in the balance.

At this critical moment, Roger c.

DELEGATION MAY

DIRECTOR SLATE
Rumor States Business Hui
Intends Proposing Many
New Candidates

Unless the representation on the di-
rectorate is more expressive of the
wide interests Of the corporation than
low appears from the slate, there will.
be some straight talk Ut the auEuaf
meeting of the stockholders of the
Mid-Paciffc Carnival, Limited, Monday
morning. '..-.@.
Rumors are rife. today to the effect
that several prominent local business
men intend making strong effort to
break the slate which contains the
of the 1914-15 Mid-Pacific Carnival,
Limited.
Further information, which comes
from a reliable source, has it that
these business men, while not opposed
those whose names now appear on
the slate, believes that the board of
directors of the Carnival for the COM
ing year should be composed mainly
of those men whose untjring efforts
caused the 1914 pageant to meet with
such great success. 1t is understood
that the business men wlo would
break the slate have seYeTa. persons
in mind who, if they accomplish their
purpose, will be put up as candidates
fer dictatorship. They probably will
endorse for membership On the boaru
representatives of the Chinese and
japanese Merchants Associations.

Party Returning from India
Win Be Guests of Hawaiian
Board During Stay

BY the Manchuria, due here from
the Orient on Wednesday next, is ex'
pected to arrive a distinguished party
of missionaries, a number of whom
will stop off in Honolulu over one
steamer. In the party is the wife and
daughter of the late DR.. Samuel B,
Capen, who died in Shanghai, few
weeks ago, while on the present jour
ney, from a sudden attack of pneumo-
mia. Dr. Capen was president of the
American Board of Missions, and his
home was in Boston.
Others in the party are DR.. E. E.
Strong, of Boston, a secretary Of the
American Board; Miss Bodman, sec.
retary of the Woman's Board of Mis-.
sions of the Interior; Miss Bridgman,
of the American Missionary Associa-
ton; Rev. George Hall, a missionary
in India, his wife and daughter, and
possibly several other missionaries.
The main party is returning to the
United States after attending the
great missionary centenary in In
dia, held several months ago.
Mrs. and Miss Capen and DR.. Strong
will continue on to the coast on the
Manchuria, but the others named
will be guests of the Hawaiian Board

COAST SALESMAN
ISPLANNED FOR
HAWAII FARMERS
Dr.. E. v. Wilcox Proposes to.
Establish Branch Market i
in Mainland City !

Hawaii's farmers are to have a spe-
ciaI salaried representative on the
coast to look after their interests, IL
the plans of DR.. E. V. Wilcox, director
of the federal experiment station, and
of the Territorial Marketing Division,
do not miscarry. And DR.. Wilcox feels
reasonably certain that they will not.
The man who gets the job will be
thoroughly familiar with Hawaiian
conditions, as well as trained sales
man of general produce. He will be
stationed in San Francisco. and his
whole time will be devoted to further
ing the sale of Hawaiian products in
coast markets.
1t is expected that this new branch
of the Territorial Market Division will
be put in operation some time after
the present fiscal year end, which
probably means some time in July.
Dr.. Wilcox already has one or two
men in view capable of filling the bill,
but the actual selection has not yet
been made.
Il believe that this man can be Of
the utmost value to the islands," said
DR.. Wilcox, in discussing the propo-
sition. HE will be expected to keep
in closest touch with the mainland
markets, and to see that Hawaiian
shipments receive proper attention
when they arrive. He will be able to
help US out greatly in the matter Of
packing and shipping, in that we will

HAWAIIAN SUGAR
men not TOHAVE
EXHIBIT IN 1915
curtaiiment of Building Given
as Reason for Change of the
Plans by Association

The Hawaii sugar industry will not
be represented at the Panama-Pacifie
Exposition at San Francisco next
year. At least there will be no sep
arate display made by the sugar men,
and sugar will have only an incident
al part, if any, in the general Hawaii
an exhibit at the big show.
The cause of this decision on the
part of the sugar planters associa-
ton was the changed plans and site
of the Hawaii. building With the
smaller building finally made neces-
sary through lack of funds, it was
found impossible to accommodate the
elaborate exhibit d. which had been
planned by the association, and to
have carried it out at all would have
necessitated installing it in some gen.
eral building in another part OF the
exposition grounds. This seemed so
undesirable that it was decided to
drop the matter altogether. .
As previously planned, the Hawaii
an Sugar Planters Association was
taking steps to install a very large
panorama in the Hawaii building, de-
signed to show in true perspective a
representative sugar plantation of the
Territory, and to cost perhaps $4,000.
A committee headed by r. d. Mead
had been at work for some time on
the plans, and had already incurred
considerable expense in employment
of an artist and in the preparation Of
designs.
With the withdrawal of the pineap-
ple-growers from participation in the
exposition. for the same reason that
has actuated the sugar men, as ex-
planned in detail in the Star-Bulletin
few days ago, neither Of the two
chief industries of the islands will be
represented specially at the exposi-
tiOn.
