without cerogating from the dignity of
the exalted position which he occupies.
He had let it be known that he was
not candidate for the nomination,
that he would not raise finger to OBJ
tain it, that he was well content to re-
main where he is, and his perfec. sin
cerity in all this has been abundantly
proved by his behavior, which in every
respect and at all times has been quite
impeccable. Never in the history of
the country has such an impressive in
stance been presented of the office
seeking the man.
And what is the explanation of this
phenomenon? How has it come about
that man without a personal follow
ing, and whose name is not enc to con-
jure with, has received the high honor
which has been bestowed on Justice
Hughes and has been named the stand
ard bearer of the great party upon
whose restoration to power the future
prosperity and well-beingof the country,
as we believe, are contingent? 1t is
because the people are satisfied that
Hughes is man whom they can safely
trust; because they have unlimited con-
tidence in his integrity, in his good
sense, in his administrative powers,
in his patriotic devotion; because
they are very sure that he will
make an efficient, broad-mind-
ed, impartial executive and that
he will discharge the duties of the
Presidential office with a single eve to
the fulflment of his official pledges and
to the conservation and promotion of
the honor and welfare of the Nation,
Such were the considerations which
created the popular demand for Hughes
nomination, to which the action of the
Chicago convention was a response.
Such are the considerations which will
attract to the Hughes candidacy so
strong a support as to insure a Re-
publican triumph on the day when the
will of the Nation is expressed

British censorship prevented the

Woods told his story to the Star-Bul-

FIREDESTROYS
REAR PORTION
OF LUCAS Mill
Actual Loss about $4,000,
and Big Contracts Hampered;
to Rebuild of Concrete

Fire which broke out in the Homo
lulu Planning Mill, 655 Fort street, at
about 5 o'clock this morning, destroy
ed all of the back portion OF the mill
before 1t could be put out by the fire
department. The cause Of the fire is
unknown.
John Lucas, president and manager
Of the ,miil corBpkny, said TINS morn
ing that he will rebuild Immediately,
erecting fireproof structure in place
of the former sheds, which were Of
wood and corrugated iron. He places
a rough estimate on the actual fire
damage at somewhere between $4,000
and $4,000. with an additional loss OF
$4,000 from contracts which he will
be unable to carry through as planned.
Insurance to the amount OF $4,000 or
$4,000 was carried on the burned por-
ton, which Mr.. iAcas said today was
not insured as high as the front OF
the mill. The entire mill carries In
surance of $4,000. %-
Productive Part Ruined.
"The damage is to, the most produc-
tive part Of the mill, however said
Mr.. Lucas, land it will be hard to es-
innate the resultant loss by being url.
able to fulfil certain of our contracts.
Besides large amounts Of lumber
and the mill structure itself destroyed
there are many portions of the ma.
chinery, betting and shafting, band
saws, a sandpaper machine OF much
value. carpenter shop. store room and
tools"
Mr.. Lucas gave orders to keep NOV
ing when he arrived on the scene this
morning. and work started soon in the
front and unharmed portion, which
also contains much machinery. Mean
while workmen are clearing out the
blackened ruins. How the fire starte.i
Is a mystery. The alarm was turned
In by a marine from the naval statioB,
who signaled from Box "a at Fort and
Allen streets. He said that when he
saw the blaze first he thought II VAS
a pile of rubbish, but realized soon
after that the mill was on fire. 3" 'ss
Central station engines and hose
carts arrived on the scene first, fol-
lowed soon by the Palama stat;oh.
which answered to a second alarm,
Makiki station coming down to re-
lieve Central. "---- ~
The structure was practically gone
before the alarm reached us first.
said Fire Chief Thurston today, "and
as We left the station at Fort and
Beretania we could see the reflection
from the flames lighting up the sky.
1T was a real fire" declares the
chief, "one of the biggest we have
had in a long while. The new en-
gines worked beautifully in this first
big tryout, in fact they saved the day
and kept it from being worse"
The new building, which will be
fireproof and larger. with arrange
ments under the most modern fash
ion, will be made Of concrete, accord
ing to Mr.. Lucas. The company has
been in its present quarters since
1873. Three or four small fires have
occurred before, but with little dam
age. >~..'.:. ..-
Contracts amounting to nearly
100000 were under way by the COM
pany. Among these are work at Fort
De Russy amounting to 100000; Ii.

Daughters Home, $25,000 and Leahi
