Palmer WOODS
REIIRES FROM
POLITICAL arena
Will Return to Hawaii and
Take Up Affairs Where
Previously Left Off !.

Palmer Woods is expected to leave
for Hawaii tomorrow morning and
take up his affairs where he left off
when he came 70 Honolulu to try for
a political position under the new adj
ministratio1.
He intimates that he will take no
further active part in politics for the
time being. He declines to comment
on the rumor that he may later take
the stump for Prince Kuhio, though
his friends, commenting on it, say he
will not. The prince and Woods are
old and close friends, but of differ
ent political faith.
Governor Pinkham did not wish to
state at greater length than he did
yesterday the position he was forced
to take in the matter of Joshua d.
fuckers refusal to resign as land
commissioner until March 4, 1915,
when his commission expires. The
chief executives statement yesterday
was simply that the commissioner
had refused to quit, and that he could
not be forced to quit. This meant
that Palmer Woods hopes are gone
as far as that place is concerned.

THE MERIT SYSTEM.

The MERIT SYSTEM.
The Republican party firmly believes in the APP
plication of the merit system in the administration
of our citys affairs All persons applying for APP
pointment to office should be judged and appointed
alone upon their qualities of efficiency and char
acter. ~.
We therefore pledge our candidates for the sew
eral Offices of the city and county of Honolulu to
this policy, thus assuring the people Of city
better and more efficient government -.
The manner in which this plank was handled
by the convention was not only remarkable, it
was unprecedented.
There was not a single word of opposition
to this program that will put every Republican
municipal candidate on record as opposed TO
the patronage system" of doing politics "a
less dignifed and more exactly expressive term
for il is the ''piecOunter SYSTEM
Every delegate upheld the spirit and the let
ter of the plank as it came from the platform
committee. 1t passed unanimously. Half a
dozen men at once moved the adoption of the
plank.
The two outstanding features of yesterdays
convention and platform are the insistence on
efficiency in city government-to be gained by
the sub0rdination of the pie-counter way of hir-
ing employes-and the emphasis placed on good
roads The good roads plank pledges the mu
nicipal candidates il favor of the frontage-tax
or local improvement plan.
In place Of the dilly-dallying of the present
Democratic board, its painful hesitation and
apparent inability to grasp the necessities of
the situation, the Republican candidates go on
recorl boldly for q fair and equitable admins
tration of all street and road work under the
frontage-tax plan.
Yesterdays convention was also distinctive
for the makeup of its membership. 1t was a
body of average citizens, useful citizens, with
out a lobbyist or wire-puller in the bunch.
Strangely enough, practically nothing was said
~ hat fh<aco fho
vention wanted to get was a platform that
would assure TO Honolulu civic improvement,
cleanliness, health, economical and effective
financing. Relieving in a municipality fully
equipped with powers to carry on all its bust
ness, they adopted plank fayoring a grant to
Honolulu of the right to fix its own tax rate in
city and county. And in asking for larger
powers, they demand internal administration
of character to measure up to the larger re-
Eponsibilities
The county platform is a good one, and even
better is the spirit in which it was drafted
This platform and this spirit will be two
strong factors in Republican success this fall.
