WHAT CANDIDATE SHALL / SUPPORT ?'
NO. 1.-THE SENATORIAL FIELD 4.

Seven Republicans four Democrats, one Pr
gressive and one Home Ruler are candidate
for the senate, seeking the support of the voter
of Oahu at the coming primary election.
Out of this array the voters can choose
very good trio, three being the number to b
elected
The Republican candidates are Alfred l.. Cas-
tie, A. d. Castro, Charles f. Chillingworth,
p. Correa Edward K LiIikalani, John r. Lu
cas-, Edward W. Quinn.
This is ticket of political and Legislative
veterans Castle has been in the house, Castr
likewise Chilingworth has served severa
terms in the senate Correa has been in TIN

ritorial government was established. Jack Lu

been in the senate.
Taking them in alphabetical order, Castle i
a desirable type of young man in politics
alert, progressive, taking a personal interes
in public affairs, conscientious in his public
duties, strong with all classes of voters. As I
member of the house, he was chairman Of thu
Judiciary committee and his record there was
good. He worked hard and kept his committee
working hard. Since then he has been chair
man Of the liquor license commission and ful
filed the difficult duties of that office more
than acceptably. The commission did very
good work under him.
He is resident of the Fifth district, lib
eralminded and fair-mnded man, and If be
is elected to the senate he will give splendid
service sek1
A. ID. Castro is Republican who has served
with credit in the house. is a student OF the sci
ence of government, widely Informed young
Portuguese American, and one devoted to the
advancement of his city, his territory, his party
He was an advocate of the direct primary law
even at the time when it was regarded as a
dangerous issue. He is a student OF parlla-
mentarv affairs, he is close to the people as
an officer in very large benevolent society,
he IS ambitious and deserves well at the hands
Of the electorate.
Charles f. Chillingworth has served several
terms in the senate. Though the record shows
that he has generally been found on the side
Of good government, there have been excep-
tons. He voted for the Moore liquor law
amendment bill, referred to yesterday, and that
black mark stands opposite his name today in
the eyes of those who believe the Republicans
ID 1909 should have stood squarely by the plat
form and refused to make any material change
ii the liquor law. Among those who have
served with Chillingworth in the senate there
exists the feeling that he is hard to figure on. "
While his familiarity with legislative affairs
and procedure is recognized, his plausibility
IS not always convincing that he is entirely
Doblic-spirited in his acts and actions. A col
|s6eue-a man who is careful in his statements
and who served with Chillingworth long
enough to know him from the sort of intimate
.110aintance that comes with day-by-day at
tendance at the legislature up Chilling
worth III this estimate: eff you will look at his
votes, you will find that he has generally voted
1ht. but It has taken lot of hard work to
.t| him to support good measures when they
were likely to be unpopular. You cannot be
certain that he will fight for the right because
lie has the courage to do it. =
81 p Correa is a veteran house member, his
work there being. largely connected with the
duties Of the printing committee. He comes
rom the same precinct of the Fifth district as
does Castle He is clean and ambitious. His
candidacy will probably be put up against that
of Castro by many voters, which may cost him
some votes. In point of breadth of knowledge
of governmental affairs and in point of famili-
arity with the progressive trend of the day, Mr..
Castro will lead, judged by his public activities
A number of good Hawaiian candidates are
onf for office and deserve to be nominated at
