REPUBLICANS TO
ORGANIZE SOON
FOR CAMP AIGNS
Robert W. Single Held to Be
Chairman Until Successor
Is Elected "

Republican activities for the fall pri.
mary and general campaigns are al
ready swinging along. However, or
ganized action awaits the selection of
a chairman for the Republican terri
torial central committee and other of
ficers and executive committeeman.
Robert W. Sh;ngle is still chairman
of the central committee, according
to Republicans who have closely OBJ
served the new party rules. The par
ty rules say:
The officers of the territorial cen
trail committee shall be chairman,
vice-chairmaD. secretary, assistant
secretary and treasurer, who shah
hold their offices until a new commit
tee is elected and until their success
sors are elected. unless sooner re-
moved by an affirmative vote of two
thirds of the membership of the COM
mittee." "
It is held that Shingle remains as
chairman until his successor is elect
ed. and of course his successor can
not be elected until the new commit
tee is called together. The duty Of
calling together the committee there
fore falls upon the outgoing chairman.
The chairman of the committee is
chosen by the committee at large and
not by the executive committee, as
stated in the StanBulletin yesterday.
The chairman of the committee ap-
points members of theNexecutive COM
mittee upon the nomination of men,
bers from the various districts. The
chairman is ex-officio member and
chairman of the executive committee.
The committee is expected to be
called together as soon as notice can
he given to all the members. which. in
the case CT the outside island districts,
will require ten days. .....

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 10. -
President Wilson has forwarded In
structions to John r. Silliman, Unit.
ed States consul at Saltillo, TO inform
General carranZa that provided a
peaceful settlement Is reached with
President Carbsjal, recognition by the
United States will be extended to the
resultant administration.
Should carranza insist. on foTe'ble
entry into Mexico City, recognition
will be deferred until following the
legal election.
FOREIGNERS DOUBT PEACE.
VERA CRUZ, Mex, July t6.-For-
eign residents Of this city doubt great
ly that permanent peace will result
from the change in the administration
Of Mexico. ...
It is the prevailing opinion that the
change simply means a subsidence Of
the Anti-American feeling and tenn
porary cessation Of hostilities.
Many foreigners, owners Of haelen-
das and mines, are anxious to return
to their properties.
FOREIGN VESSELS ARRIVE.

The British cruiser Bristol has drop
ped anchor in this harhor and the Ger

approaching the harbcr.

MONTEREY, Mex, July t6.-Gen-
eraI carranza, leader Of the constltu-

ing that the advance on Mexico City
will continue unless President carbar
jaI will surrender, unconditionaIly.

MEXICO CITY, Mex, July t6.-The
results of the change in administers

BILL EXPLAINED

FREAR APPEARS TO
REPRESENT PARTIES
Requests that House Measure

Amount About $4,000

What is holding up the federal
building bill in the house,"
This is the question that has been
asked with increasing interest during
the last few weeks. The answer has
come from Washington in the report
Of hearing before the house commit
tee on public buildings and grounds
on June 10. ....
At that hearing former Governor
Walter F. Frear appeared to repre-
sent, presumably as paid attorney, de-
PENDANTS in the condemnation proceed

to acquire the Fort street frontage
for the federal site. Mr.. Frear want

these defendants would be reimbursed
for their attorneys fees, etc, during
the litigation @.. -. ....= f.
The report of the hearing shows
that opposition TO this at once arose
in the committee, the chairman rul
ing that the committee had no juris-
diction in the matter, that it was
subject for the appropriations commit
tee. -... ...5-... + s.. ..
AS result it is expected that the
committee will report the bill without
the amendment proposed by Frear.
The Senate passed the Warren bill,
which is the latest of the federal
building bills and embraces the whole
subject, on June %. Robert w. Shin
gle, who went to Washington to has
ten action on the building matter
expected that the House would pass
a similar bill the following week!
That was the general expectation
here. But apparently, the new situa-
tion developed from the Frear pro-
posal has been one factor in the de-
lay.
On June 10 the House building COM.
mittee was in session. John r. Desha,
the delegates secretary, had discuss
ed with the committee some minor
of wording in the bill.
The hearing was about to close
Chairman Clark said: .*.".l
Il do not think we will need any
further information and we will take

SHINGLE URGES
COMMITTEE PLAY
NO ''FAvORITES'
Retiring Republican Chairman
Declares Successor Should
Not Take Partisan Stand

Leading Republicans today heartily
indorsed the stand taken by the Star.
Bulletin editorially last evening that
the Republican Territorial central
committee and particularly it's chair
man cannot play favorites" between
party candidates during the campaign
for nominations at the direct primary.
Robert w. Shlngle, retiring chair
man of the Republican party, declares
that an impartial course must be TAX
en- by the party organization and its
chief if the party hopes to hold to-
gether its full strength. and win a
victory in the November elections.
Il agree absolutely with the Star
Bulletin" said Mr.. Shingle this morn
ing. The central committee and its
chairman occupy position that
should represent net one element or
faction of the party but all the peo-
pie -...@'.....
"Qur new primary law does away
with conventions as a means of choos-
ing party candidates and puts the
choice up to all the people within the
party. The central committee must
let the people make the choice. II
should not identify itself with one
candidate as against another. 4
IF the chairman of the committee
takes sides, for instance. between Joe
Cohen and John Lane or Harry Muir
ray for mayor, or between Oscar Cox
and William Sheldon for sheriff, or
Rice and .Kuhio for delegate, it will
be detrimental to party interests.
81 believe, of course, in a man bav-
ing his own views as to candidates.
He may hold his personal views with
out bringing these into the primary
campaign. He should keep these
views out of the fight. What want
to emphasize is that the spirit of our
new direct primary law - the spirit
that the Republican party believes in
and is pledged to uphold-requires
that the party organization do not
work for one party candidate as
against another. ,....- .
After the primary election comes
the general campaign. The chair
man of the Republican party and his
fellow members of the committee
must be able to give an account of
their stewardship. They must be able
to give their friendly cooperation to
the candidate nominated at the pri-
mary. How can they do this il they
have perhaps fought these candidates
during the primary campaign?
Il do not believe that the chairman
of the Republican central committee
can in fairness and in observance Of
the primary law and party principle
take sides with any one of the party
candidates for nomination as against
any other"
