Governor Calls For- ;
. Expression of
Independent Thought
Tor the purpose of. securing lnilw -
lnudeiit opinions In regard to tbc best
method of procedure In tho present
tlnanclal situation," said Governor Car
ler this forenoon, "Secretary Atkinson
mid 1 liae selected tinea men ct but
lncb3 In tho city, whose opinions wo
nt present know nothing of, to meet
with us and talk over tho Territory's
difficulties.
"Tho Hnunclal situation Is a serious
une and I feel that we should view all
sides and hear all suggestions.
VI want to hear tho views of men
who are not especially Identified wllu
any particular policy, business men
who will freely express their opinions
and discuss needs and remedies,
"Consulting with men whose opin
ions are well -Known would not prove
the same aid to arriving at a solution
of the present difficulties, as will a
comparison of Ideas and exchange of
thought with men whose attitude In
ccitaln matters has not been known
to all.
"Yes, a discussion of the present sit
uation will naturally Include a consid
eration of whether It Is necessary to
call the Legislature In extraordinary
session.
"Independent thought In this mat
ter will greatly assist tbo administra
tion. I want to get nt what the busi
ness men and others, non-partlzan as
far as my knowledge of their opinions
Is concerned, think the best thing to
do under the circumstances,
Understand, of course, that' this ,
conference is merely a discussion for
the sake of developing plans and hear
ing suggestions, whatever opinion Is
arrived ut by the gentlemen Mr. Atkin
son and I have asked to meet us, Is
not necessailly a conclusion, Is not a
bcltleiuent of the matter; Is not neccs
surlly final by any means.
"Should we fall to derive! any satis
faction from the conference 'with the
three gentlemen selected; should no
definite opinion be arrived at, then we
will probably ask a larger number of
lepresentatlvc men, men whose opin
ions are now unknown to us, to meet
find put forward their Ideas.
"I don't want, In a matter of this
Idnd, so much to consult with men
who will say: "We're with you Govern
or) Go, ahead, wo agree with you!'
us with those who. Irrespective of pol
Icles or set principles, will Independ'
vntly volco their own sentiments on
, tho proposition and state the reasons
lor their convictions. So will the ad
ministration bo asststedln rcitchlng a
conclusion In regard to how to go
ahead.

Fred. W. Macfarlane, who, when an
Hawaiian exhibit at the St. Louis Ex

Impression that within the next fow
days somo action would probably bo
taken by representatives of the bust

prlatc manner at the World s Fair this
year at St, Louis.
A question as to what Mr, Macfar
lane thought of Captain Berger's prop
osition to take the band to St. Louis
at tho expense of the Exposition,
brought forth a remark to the above
effect.
"On the midway," said Mr. Macfar
lane. "thero will be the Inevitable hula
dancers and "This way for the Hawaii
an exhibit!' will be the cry.
'If there Is no legitimate, really rep
resentative Hawaiian exhibit, natural

"Such a show will do the country
more harm than good. People will not

other Inducement than thj Impression
that we are all hula dancers downhere.
