M
iumor Has It That the
Wailuku Convention
Will Be Asked to Set
Kuhio and His Aspi
rations Aside to Make
Room for the Sugar
lagnate.
' A report has come floating across
channel from Maui to the effect that
IT. P. Baldwin would not be averse to
rounding1 out his career of distinguish
ed public service with a term as Dele
's ate in Congress from this Territory.
And, if the report be true. Kuhio
jwould better get ready to begin to
tremble. Mr. Baldwin, is a man who
does things with a considerable de
gree of earnestness, when he does
them. ,
The Territorial Convention, as
is well known, meets this year in Wai
luku, on the island of Maui. Now, it
is a well known fact that although
Cornwall beat Baldwin for Supervisor
in the last county election, that was
a fluke and Baldwin can have anything
from the Republicans of Maui that
he wants. It follows, that if he wants
the delegation to the convention, he
can have it. . ,
FEELING AGAINST KUHIO.
There is also, as everybody knows, a
strong undercurrent of feeling in high
Republican circles against Kuhio. A
great many leaders object to what they
call "the broken pledge to Robertson."
A great many others believe that the
SS ' - f A , -
" SUPEEVISOB JACK LUCAS.
Delegate in Congress snows be a man
who is really representative. ,
The pressure for Kuhio, of course, is
largely race pressure. The native Ha
waiians have got the idea that the
delegateship belongs to them and In
that view have been inclined to flock
to the Delegate without much regard
to party lines. So strong is this feel
ing that"' it has been more or less
openly asserted, although never by the
Delegate himself, that Kuhio would
run whether he were nominated by the
Republicans or not, relying upon his
own people to elect him.
If any white man could break the
back of this kind of combination, it
would be H. P. 'Baldwin. He has al
ways been the friend "of the natives,
and has always been able to get pretty
much what he wanted from them
again barring that fluke by which
Cornwall beat him for Supervisor.

The Honolulu Aan Says
That His Private Busi
ness Will Not Permit
Him to Devote Any
More of His Time to
the Service of the
Public.
"I am out of it," thus spoke Super
visor Jack Lucas to an Advertiser man
yesterday. -
"I- will not be a candidate for re
election to the Board of Supervisors of
Oahu county. I have had enough of it.
It is time for me to consider my family
ajj mj' private business."
"Understand me," went on Super
visor Lucas. "I am not afraid that I
will not be nominated, nor that I will
not te elected. I believe that I could
win in the primaries, and that I could
w-in afterwards at the polls. But what
does it mean? I have served this peo
ple faithfully and done my duty to the
best of my ability siace I havo been in
the Board. I have not missed one
meeting of the body to which I was
elected, and I have done a lot of Work
for the county outside of Board hours.
Let somebody else put his shoulder to
the wheel now, and keep the business
of the public going.
''If I were to stay in the fight, it
would mean three months of hard cam
paigning before "the election. I do not
care to go into that.
"After the election, I would have
two years of hard work, with not much
in return for it but kicks and criti
cism. 1 nave nau my snare. J-ec some
body else take the brunt, j
DEMANDS OF BUSINESS.
"And, as I said before, it is time for
me to consider my family and my pri
vat business. My family has always
opposed my going into polities at "all.
I have a hard year's work ahead of irv
in a business way, some very important
mr.tters that demand my entire time
and attention, and that I eannot afford,

not. absolutely, be a candidate before
the convention for renomination. This
is definite, and final."
, So passes out of the actie arena of
local politics a picturesque and interv
esting figure. Withal, Mr. Lucas has
been a useful member of the Board of
Supervisors, and one against whom no
charge of wrong-doing has ever been
made to stick. He has done his duty,
ag he saw it. And, while he will not
himself be a candidate, there is no
doubt that he will continue to take an
interest in public affairs. He would
not be Jack Lucas if he did not do it.
SOMErOSSIBLE EFFECTS.
Of course, his withdrawal from the
field will bring many candidates for the
Boai 1 of Supervisors to tae front ac
tively. Also, it will create a great stir
among the politicians. Lucas was con
ceded, with Sam Johnson's active help,
to be practically sure of- nomination
Now, Sam must rebuild his fences and
re-align his forces. What he will do
about it remains to be developed, but

li. K. Bonine, who has been in the
Territory for some time taking moving
picture views and lantern slide scenes
for the Thomas A. Edison company, of
Orange, X. J., is delighted with the
success he has met with on Hawaii and
he has secured a score
interesting kinetoscope films
and a large number of views.
"When I first came htre," said Mr.
Bonine last night, "I was on my way
to Japan and had not intended to do
any work except in the city of Hono
lulu and the immediate neighborhood.
But I saw that there was a good
chance here to get some pictures that
would be most interesting, and ac
cordingly cabled that I was going to
put some time in here and would cut,
out the Japanese trip. I

got a number of most interesting

GENERAL STRIKE
(Associated Press Cablegrams.)
WARSAW, July 25. The railroad employes are prepared for a
general strike on Saturday.
SENTENCE CZAR TO DEATH. ,
ST. PETERSBURG, July 24. Death sentences have been pro
claimed by the Douma on the Emperor, General Trepoff, Pobiedon-
ostseff, head of the Russian church ; Orloff and others associated with
the present ruling element.
Members of the Douma have been outlawed. They have re
turned but have not been put under arrest.
MASSACRE OF THE JEWS.
ODESSA, Russia, July 24. Massacres of Jews are in progress
in this city.
The afternoon cablegrams said that the Douma had decreed the death of
the Czar. The answer of the Emperor i3 to put his army on a war footing, and
order the Governor of St. Petersburg to crush the enemies of society, and re
store order. The line is therefore drawn between the Czar and his people. It
is, however, questionable whether the Governor of St. Petersburg can restore
order in the capital.
