REV. WILLIAM HENRY cry WILL
SPEAK AT MEMS MASSMEETING
"The Man Who Couldn't Come
Back Subject of Address at
Gathering in Empire

Rev. William Henry Fry win be the
speaker at the mems mass meeting in
the Empire theater Sunday evening
He has chosen as his subject The Man
Who Couldn't Come back. DR.. Fry is
the superintendent of missions Of the
Methodist church in the islands and
before coming to Honolulu in June he
was pastor Of the Sunnyside church or
Portland. Ore.
Since coming 70 the city Doctor Fry
has been acting pastor OF the Metho.
dist church and will continue In that
position until new man is secured
TO take up the work left by Rev. r.
r. Smith, who is now in Portland.
Doctor Fry has attracted wide atten-
ton among all classes of people BY his
forceful manner of speaking and by his
progressive method of carrying on the
work of the church. He has been using
large space in the newspapers to at
tract the interest of the non-ehurch.
going people.
DIR. Fry is an Irishmsn by birth, but
his parents moved to Canada when he
was very young and he spent most of
his life there He has lived among the
men of the logging camps and has
spent years in the big woods, so that
he IS familiar with the outdoor life
that is so attractive to rugged men.
This has given him information and q
vocabulary that makes him an inter
esting speaker to men. While in Port.
land he was used very largely by the
YIN. c. A. in their mems meetings
He was educated at Toronto and
Manitoba universities and soon after
wards came to the states as a pastor. |
He spent some years in Idaho and
Washington and four years ago went
to the Sunnyside church in Portland. |
While in Portland he was given the
honorary degree OF doctor Of divinity !

PETITIONS TO Be
OUT IN FEW DAYS
Bull Moosers Anxious That
Party be Kept Alive Till
Presidential Year.

Nomination by petition appears to
be the only esour left for the pro-
gressive candidates for state officers,
as the result Of the failure Of the re-
quired number Of delegates to attend
the party convention held last Friday
at Fargo. according to P. o. Thorson,
local bull moose committeeman.
Mr.. Thorson said today that only
$50 members Of the party had at
tended the Fargo meeting. Under
the state law a convention nus be
attended by at least 800 delegates in
order to obtain recognition for the
party on the state ballot.
Name Committee.
After a general discussion Of. the sit
uation a committee was appointed to
investigate the feasibility Of having
h various candidates nominated by
petition. It is believed that under the
law this may be done by having each
petition signed by 800 voters.
Under this system however, it will
apparently be necessary for the va
rious candidates to run as independ-
ents, and not as members Of the bull
moose party.
The same system was followed at
the general election two years ago,
and the present situation practically
educe h bull moosers to the status
OF O new party just organized,
MI. Thorson said, however, that the
leaders Of the party regarded it as
highly important that the names of
the candidates should appear on the
ballot. in order that the organization
might be kept alive in this state until
the next presidential election.
Those who attended the convention
from this city were e. j. Lander, P.
o. Thorson, K. M. Ness, Richard Hey
ward and DR.. H. M. Wheeler.
h meeting was held at the Sons
OF Norway hall at Fargo. H. r. Tur-
ner OF Fargo, state chairman of the
party, presided.

As to our being the common butt
