Hilles Said to Have Assured
Rice of, Governor's Recess
Reappointment
Governor Ftear is to be given a re
cess reappointment by President Taft,
according to promises made to the Ha
waii delegation that went to the Chi
cago convention. .
The storj" came back that Secretary
Hilles, secretary to the. President, had
personally assured Charles A. Rice of
Kauai, member of the delegation and
now national committeeman, that the
reappointment would be made during
the congressional recess. Mr. Rice was
asked yesterday as to this story, and
while declining to discuss it at any
length, did not deny the essential par
ticulars. The report was not confiden
tial, for other members, of the delega
tion also confirm it,v and, furthermore,
the reappointment of Governor Frear
turns out to have played an important
part in the maneuvering during which
Hawaii's delegation voted for McGov
ern for temporary chairman.

or those members who have returned,
feel quite certain that the Governor is
slated for reelection, and that Secre-
t-tary llilles .has made the -absolute
statement that 'he ": will, be reappointed.
The antl-FYear men express almost
equal confidence that : Taft will not
name Frear again. Colonel Sam Par
ker is said to lelieve he holds the
personal assurance of Taft that Frear
is to he overlooked in the naming of
a governor.
- Incidentally, members of the delega
tion say that the story that Hawaii's
representation may bo cut from six .to
two is very wide of the mark.;
"The delegation can not be tut now,
because the convention itself adopted
the apportionment plan which gives
Hawaii six delegates." said one of the
loeal'delegation today. "It is quite true
that Hawaii was in danger of having
its representation cut to two. - The del
egation saved this by its handling of

Hind was reported to be in Honolulu

A grazing lease ordinarily does not
