went to the banquet hall some one
handed the delegate memorandum
stating that some one was TO speak
on prohibition. This he took as his
cue and gave the boys very straight
talk on the subject.
Kuhio stated that he did not prac'

Tognized the fact that liquor and

Hawaiian, active men Of the city OF
Honolulu
/ Delegate Kuhio was followed by

SUFFRAGE PLANK,
ALA 1912, FOR
G. 0. ?. PLATFORM
Special Committee Divides and
Compromises on Home
Rule Theory

As the result or compromise
which followed q rather lively con-
troversy. in which the benefits and
drawbacks Of woman suffrage for Ha-
waii were pointed out, the Republican
convention committee on platform and
resolutions adopted shortly before
noon q platform plank fayoring grant:
ing equal suffrage to women.
Harry Baldwin OF Maui made 9
strong speech against the proposed
plank for the platform, while the
plank was just as strongly upheld by
DIR. e. s. Goodhue OF Kona, Rev. s, L.
Desha OF Hilo and William Thompson
Of Oahu.
LET the women decide for them
selves whether they want suffrage,
declared John Wise.
"This is a right which / recognize
as belonging to the women, and ]
favor plank giving the women their
rights. as far as we are able. Thomp-
son retorted.
One Of the Maui delegates declared
that during the seven years he has
been campaigning on the Valley
Island not one woman has come to
him and asked him for the vote.
The matter came to d head when a
compromise was affected. It was de-
.cided to throw out the proposed plat.
form plank relating to suffrage and
adopt the plank contained in the Re.
publican platform of 1912. This plank
is as follows:
Believing that the continued dis
reimbursement of women is q relic ot
antiquity that belongs to other days,
and that women never have main
tanned and never will maintain their
moral, natural or legal right save by
the process OF political rights, we
favor the enactment Of laws granting
equal suffrage to them. AS this is
q subject upon which the territory It.
self should be permitted to legislate.
We favor submission to Congress of a
memorial for an amendment to the
Organic Act by which the Legislature
Of the territory may have power to
act, or may, should such course
seem advisable, call special election
for q submission Of the question to
the voters

RECENT ACHIEVEMENTS OF
THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
Important Work Of an Organization
Which Opposes Race Prejudice.

The National Association For the
Advancement Of Colored People, with
headquarters at 70 Fifth avenue, New
York, has membership Of 10000, with
sixty-three local branches. The asso-
citation has, among other objects, equal
ity Of opportunity for the colored peo-
pie, with exact legal justice for the
race In common with all other groups
Of citizens of the United States. The
official organ Of the organization is the
Crisis Magazine, edited by DR.. w. q.
b. Du Bots, which has a circulation of
over $4,000.
The association is composed of mem.
bers Of both races, but the colored peo-
pie constitute 80 per cent Of the mem
bership and circulation of the Crisis.
The society employs nearly 800 mem
bers Of our race among its workers and
maintains q legal bureau for the con-
sideration Of cases involving discrim-
nation on account Of color.
. The association recently successfully
opposed the food Of legislation hostile
to colored people introduced into the
Sixty-third congress; defeated the at.
tempt made to segregate colored peo-
pie In the civil service of the United
States; appeared through counsel In
the grandfather cases. recently ruled
upon by the supreme court in one of
the most important decisions in its his
tory; opposed segregation ordinances
In Baltimore, Louisville and st. Louis,
carrying the Louisville ordinance up to
the supreme court, where it is to be
argued by counsel representing this
association.
It also gave publicity to the dangers
Of proposed farm segregation in North
Carolina which would prevent colored
people from buying farm land; made
an investigation of jimcrow cars and
has nearly perfected legal case to
test the Oklahoma law In order to pre-
sent the question to the interstate COM
merce commission with the object Of
securing equal accommodations for
white and black. 1t kept q film play
to which objection was made out of
two states and several cities and In

Human Brotherhood.

Human Brotherhood.
Ray Stannard Baker In a re-
cent issue Of the American Mag
azine has the following to say
about prejudice Of one race
against another:
"Why will men not see that
there can be no true civilization
while any men In the world are
left out of it and that no race and
no nation can 60 far forward
while other races and nations
lag behind?
"Let the white person again
tread the black person under his
heel! (Say. which is trodden un-
der heel after allO
1T IL not enough that we give
the alien nations our learning,
our religion. our science. What
signify all these things? Are
we hurt by giving them? Are
we not, on the contrary, the ma.
terial gamers? No; we must be
prepared to 60 further than that,
else we have not learned the
fundamental concept Of religion.
ut Ia not the great task Of any
nation that 1t shall remain pure
or white or learned or that It
shall assure to its posterity the
possession of land and comfort,
though this has been the belief
and the doom of every aristocra.
cy from the beginning Of time.
The great task Of every ad-
vanced race or nation Is to bring
more love. more light. into the
world.
"A stand for racial aristocracy
means war. hatred, barren ex-
clusiveness and finally degenera-
tion and failure; stand for ra-
cial democracy and brotherhood
means love in the world. friend

thing for Cinnamon or Hindus
or for our own poor. except the
one essential thing. Yes. educate

BIG VICTORY FOR THE RACE.
Commission Votes Down Clarence
Poe's Race Segregation Plan.

Commission Votes Down Clarence
Poe's Race Segregation Plan.
The university commission on the
southern race question, which held its
meeting at Durham, N. c., recently.
voted down Clarence Poe's proposition
for race segregation with decided
emphasis.
Mr.. Poe's proposition included three
parties to the race problem, as follows:
First, the Negro; second, the wealthy
or professional white man unaffected
BY Negro competition; third, the poor
laboring white man who does and must
face such competition. II would not
have less sympathy or thought for the
Negro, but more for the disadvantaged
white man." says Mr.. Poe In his pleas
to keep alive the flames Of race preju-
dice.
II hope your commission will study
this third factor and also inquire II
separate grouping does not encourage
better Negro leadership and communi.
V life. Also make study of mulatto
traits and achievements as distinguish
ed from pure Negro and inquire to
what extent mulattoes are increasing
