To the Officers and Members of
Trecinct Clubs of the Republican
Party of the Territory of Hawaii:
Honolulu, January 5, 1914.
A convention of the Republican
Party of the Territory of Hawaii
has been called to meet in Hono
lulu on February 24, 1914, for the
purpose of revising the rules and
regulations of the party, and for
such other business as may come
before it.
The call has already been issued.
Primary meetings for the purpose
of naming delegates are to be held
on February 2, 1914, and the elec
tion of delegates on February 7,
1914.
The enactment of a direct pri
mary law by the last Legislature of
the Territory, in fulfilment of the
pledge made by our party relative
thereto, has made necessary many
changes in the existing rules par
ticularly- if the spirit, as well as the
letter of the Act, is to be observed
by us.
The Territorial Committee, feel
ing certain that the combined sin
cere efforts of our party, as rep
resented in convention, will secure
better and more satisfactory results
! in t' e framing of the new rules,
'than would the Committee actin
, alone, has deemed it wise to adopt
this method.
A full attendance at the conven
tion is urged. The revision of the
rules is important; perhaps, more
important still is the keeping alive
of party spirit. At the presevt
time, the Republican Party of the
Territory should, like that of the
mainland, b e wide awake. The
much-heralded prosperity pro
phesied by Democracy, as sure to
follow Democratic success, has
failed to materialize, and in its
place have come business depres
sion and stagnation and a large in
crease in the number of unemploy
ed, naturally leading too a growing
lack of confidence in the party now
in control of national affairs.
Hawaii has suffered more from
this lack of efficiency than anv
other part o f the country, and
united effort on our part, with a
proper organization, will undcubt
edly lead to Republican success at
the next election.
The Territorial Committee ap
pointed a Sub-Committee to draft

proposed amendments to the rules.
The authority given this Sub-Committee,
however, extended only to
drafting amendments as a basis
upon which the convention might
work. It must be clearly under
stood that the changes made by
this Committee are by way of sug
gestion, and by way of suggestion
solely. The Territorial Committee
wishes the rules finally promulgat
ed to voice the ideas and sentiments
of the Republican Parlv adopted
in a convention called for that pur
pose and aftr free, full and earn
est discussion and consideration bv
the members of the convention.
The Committee will welcome all
suggestions and will see to it tlmt
all correspondence relative thereto
is laid before the convention.
It may be noted that the suggest
e u amendments eliminate t li e
County Convention; provide for a
new method of dividing and ex
pending contributions; make mem
bers of the County Committee
elective by the members of the
Precinct Clubs and, in many other
wavs, change the existing methods
Again, nominations under the pro
posed Rules are mane in primaries
and not in conventions. The
County Convention as above set
forth is eliminated and the Terri
torial Convention meets only for
the purpostof adopting a platform.
The attention of all Republicans
should be called to these sugges
tions, and information relative
thereto secured wherever possible
Considerable discussion was had
before the Sub-Committee touch
iiif the method of selecting mem
bers of the Territorial Committee.
On the one hand it was urged that
the members of this Committee
should be selected at the precinct
primaries and that the employ ment
of such a method would be in line
with the spirit of the primary law.
As against this, it was claimed
that, as the Delegates to the Terri
tonal Conventicn, chosen by the
precinct clubs, would be charged
with the duty of formulating
platform on which the party must
win victory or go clown in defeat
they should likewise have t h
right to name the committee to be
charged with the duty of carrying
on the campaign based on the plat
form, and that by this method dis
cordant elements in the committee
might be eliminated. The Sub-
Committee, while favoring the lat
ter plan, requests earnest consider
ation of the question by the voters.
The Committee respectfully asks
your hearty co-operation in seeing
that your precinct is represented at
the convention and for your earn
est assistance in its endeavor to
change the rules to conform to the
new primary law. Whenever pos
sible, we recommend that the ex
ecutive committee of the club call
a special meeting of the club for
purposes of discussion.
Address all communications t o

Committee, Honolulu, Hawaii.

remembered it and setting forth its
charms in a manner which has
since gone to make her work a
vital medium of advertising for
these islands. The Hawaii Pro
motion Committee, with head
quarters at Honolulu, is beginning
to think the same of Kauai as did
Marv G. Bird when she wrote her
book and if the present plans of
that organization materialize,
hundreds of tourists will visit the
Garden Island, during the coming
vear.
Upon the suggestion of II. P.
Wood, secretary of the Promotion
Committee, the members, at a re
cent meeting laid plans to raise a
special fund with which t o es
tablish in Honolulu an "Island
Tours" bureau, T h i s bureau
would be in charge of an expert
promotionist whose duty it would
be to meet all incoming steamers
and urge the tourists and other
visitors to not only see Oahu, but
to make visits to all the islands.
Secretary Wood, in an interview
with your correspondent last Fri
day; said that, in view of the open
ing of this proposed bureau, Kauai
would be one of the islands which
would receive the greatest amount
. V 1' tl
o t attention, n e ueneveci, n e
said, that it the many points of in
terest on that island were brought
to the attention of the tourists in
the propel manner, there would
be little doubt but that hundreds
of them could be induced to go
there and spend at least a week or
a month. The newly-organized
Kauai Chamber of Commerce, Mr.
Wood pointed out. is carrying on
a certain amount o f promotion
work and this, with the efforts of
the proposed bureau o f island
tours, could soon make the Garden
Island the mecca of those tourists
who are out to see all that the op
portunity affords.
"Kauai has attractions of such a
class as warrants every visitor to
these islands to make a trip there"
said Mr. Wood. In addition to
some very attractive points of in
terest, the island affords the very
best of roads by which these places
may be reached.'
Mr. Wood's statement concern
ing Kauai's roads leads back to
what Goveruoi L. E. Pinkham re
marked to your correspondent the
other dav. during an interview at
the capitol. "One thing which I
notice here in Honolulu is the lack
of good roads." He said. Good
roads serve as an attraction for
tourists. I think." If good roads
will attract tourists, then, Kauai
need have no fear on that point.

by trails and miles of excellent
