Secretary Fisher Says At End of
Hearing He Knows What He
Will Report; Belief Frear Is To
Be Recommended For Reap-
pointment
Ending with three notable state -
iunts, in one of which Gov. Frear
opened his heart , and talked with an
e'oquence and a frankness that moved
his hearers deeply, the Fisher investi-
Ration into Delegate Kuhlo's com
plaint came to a close at 1 ; 15 o'clock
thin afternoon.
From Q:30 o'clock on the secretary
tf Hie interior sat in his chair in the
senate chamber closing up Lis investi
gallon. At the end, after Governor
Krear and Attorney C. W. Ashford had
made "Short but strong statements as
the investigation and what it nas
accomplished, the secretary of the in
terior gave a very brief talk in which
he told the people of Hawaii that they
nmst work with taeir. governor and
-work -with him for HaVaii.
He declared that Gqvernor . Frear
has Lad to play too much of a lone
band; in the same breath' saying, that
.perhaps that la partly due to the gov-
fnor;, disppsltjon., iatxoJcetyEcPx -r?

tlcally made ttp as to what his recom

appointment" is to be, but that v he
" could not, of course make it public
now. f But to those who remained un
til the end of the session today and
heard, his closing , words, Mr. Fisher
seemed plainly intimating that he
will recommend Gov. Frear's. reap
pointment. That he will also recom
mend many changes in governmental
i methods and in laVs here is also em
pected. v.
Practically 'all of-the 'sensation of
the closing day was packed Into fif
teen minutes at the end., The Secre
tary had heard from L. A. Thurston
on a number of points, Mr. Thurston
being almost two hours on the stand.

campaign, testified before the Senate
investigating committee this morning
that Dr: Hanna, Geo. W. Perkins and

That Roosevelt's campaign in 1904
was backed almost exclusively by the
