FEOPLE fJIUST DO THEIR PART ill EXPEGTEO QUIT HIS Jl Intimation Conies from Chief Executive's Office That Territory Hay V7ithout a Usad Unless Successor Is Appoisted Soon After September First. Governor. Frear yesterday nailed another street yarn as preposterous' in the extreme. Tha rumor to the effect that President Wilson, tiriug of the Hawaiian governorship question, would withdraw the 'nomination of L. Iinkhaai rather than have tho -senate turn him down, as this would eavae a breacn whica-nugnt uoasibly to the extent of endangering the passage of the- Underwood Tariff Bill and the Currency Bill, and would then tarn about and send the name of Goveri er Frear to the senate for confirmation cs Governor of Hawaii to succeed him self.

"There is absolutely nothing to the story," said Governor Frear yesterday, "and, moreover, absolutely no indaee-ment could be offered me ai thin late day which would cause ano to chaoge my mind and dissuade me from ciag onee more into private life. Anticipating a change of adainistratios), I long ago made dans for the utnrs wiith could not very' well be set aside Believing it would aid tho admin-' istratioa aad help oat tho Territory, as far back as March last, seed to remain ia offiee up to September 1.

Mclnerny Thinks Association and Chamber of Commerce Should Have Distinct Fields. To increase the scope of activity of the chamber of commerce aiwl arrange that of the merchants association so that, the' two organizations would have separate- and distinct fields of civic work, is the proposal of vv. li. Mclnerny, a member of the joint committee of the two organizations appointed to discuss the question of amalgamation. Melnernyr-who while' open to conviction as to amalgamation is at present opposed to this scheme, says that he believes that if the fields of activity of the two organizations were more clearly marked and outlined, so that all big questions would be referred to Washington only through the chamber of and matters of more decided local interest were taken in hand entirely by the merchants' association, there would be no necessity for amalgamation.

Mr. Mclnerny also has decided viewg on the question of appointment of committee members of the chamber of commerce. George i. Carter, who was elected president of the ehamber at the annual meeting last week, found on consultinjj; the constitution and bylaws that he-was compelled to select all eom- Tnitteeraen from among the trustees only. Mr.

Mclnerny states that in his opinion this is a wrong system. Tbe best men for tue committeeships, he sRys, should be selected from among the personnel of the membership of the entire organization. 'Furthermore," said Mr. Mclnerny yesterday, "there should be no thought, "in the selection of chairmen of committees, or members thereof, as to whether this or that man represents sugar, or pineapples, or coffee, or this or that agency. The best and 'most active or best informed men on public matters, should be selected for the positions.

Tho Oovernor was equally aw positivsr'Ki--' he would do nothing at ail ntAwtil' 1 but attead to tuei rfntiaar which may crop np while he holla the lid; that he will not inangarato hay new policies for the Territory nor lo anything which he tielieves his successor should attend to as gooa as he qualifies. Ia this category may -be mentioned tbe calling of a special session and the flotation of the new bond issue. The deverner has riht along maintained he would net interfere in either case, just as be has rs- raised from making any new tarrlte-nal appointments since President Wilson sent to the senate the name of L. R. Pinkham to succeed the present Chief Executive of 1 Hawaii, except in the case of President Pratt of the board of, health which would brook no delay.

The Governor yesterday did admit that it' would be welUb Host the new loan as soon as pcsilde and gave several reasons for this view. The Hilo wbarf is now practically completed, bat it lacks the necessary shed in order to be of any use, and the Hawaii belt road commission also wants to get a hold of the-balance for the completion of tha roads which have been planned lor some time. The money to the credit of the IIaws.il commission has practically ma out and unless the further loao is obtained aad becomes available tsoi the commission will have to npeud operations, discharge' its corps of engineers, since there would be bo use keeping np the- high overhead expenses, and thereby disorganize a system which is now in good working order and has X0 GOVEBNOB FEEAE, Who would be glad to hear of the ap-v pointment of his successor. REPORT TELLS OF PROSPERITY Governor Frear's Annual Account of Stewardship Full of Cheer For Future of Territory. With a Eigh of relief the Governor yesterday wrote 'W.

These are. pictures of the new Queen street' wharf and shed and a rear" view of the same; the Hilo Union Katnehameha III School at Lahaina; Boys', Industrial School at Lahainaluna; Boys' Indus trial (Beform) School at Waialee; territorial Prison; Insane Asylum; Armory at Honolnlu, and Armory at Lahaina, all new. The introduction to the report consists of a brief extract of the whole work, containing six typewritten pages, whieh the Governor prepared specially to assist' the secretary of the interior in preparing his annual report to the President. From beginning to end Governor Frear's report is one that is replete with optimism for tho future of Hawaii, the figures showing that the Territory has closed one of the most prosperous vcrs in its history.

Federal Court Notes The Klikitat admiralty case will be taken np again Ijelore Judge Dole at ten o'clock this morning in the federal court. This case has been on trial for a number of wetkswith Captain Bruhn of the Island steamer Keauhou a number of days in the witness stand. It is donbtful if it will be concluded this week. The United States Supreme Court has dismisse'l the appeal of t'meno Shigematsu because of failure of the former appellant in not, presenting her case in printed form as required by the rules of the court. Since the appeal did not the point of icing heard on its merits the decision of Judge Dole stands and the case has been remanded to the local United states, district court for further action, if any shall be required.

M. Newman, a former "employe of the local po'jtoffk-e, alleged to have gone wrong in his accounts in the sum of. about ninety doSafs and who was brpught back to Honolulu from San some time ago, yesterday changed his plea of not guilty to one of guilty. Sentence will be passed on him by Judge Dole today. It is understood that there 'bein mitigating' circumstances the defendant will be let off with a nominal sentence.

Two habeas corpus cases, growing out of the refusal of the immigration authorities to allow the lauding of several Jatianese in Honolulu on account of illness wire before; Jndge yesterday. The hearing was Concluded after extensive argument by Deputy District Attorney Bitting leprescnting the United States, ami Attorney Light-foot, representing the Japanese in whose behalf the habeas corpus proceedings were first brought. Charles Sawagnel.i; thf hcrnsed of the Murder of Ilanae, an aged Hawaiian, at Waiaia Gulch August 23, wa cvuiniitted to the circuit court yesterday from the district court Sawaguehi was unattended by counsel and waived rmt a -considerable sum to bring it to its present erliciency. Then, again, the present seems to be just right to float a new territorial issue to advantage, since Hawaiian bonds are more than holding their own in the, big money centers of the mainland. 1 Might Quit His Joh.

Considering the Go-ernor's attitude at the present time there appears but a slim chance, and a poor one at that, lhat the new loan issue will be floated by the present Executive. At least, it does not seem very likely. 1 Se certain is the Governor that he wants to get out of office as soon after the first of September as possible, that he even intimated yesterday that -if the delay in providing him with a successor would not come to a sudden cessation Hawaii might one of these days awake to find ifaself without a Governor. In -other words, there is the possibility of Governor Frear's pstience reaching a limit, -in -which cas the Chief Executive might take the matter, finally into his own hands and step out of offiee quietly and without further apology: The Organic Act, however, provides that the Governor must remain in office until his successor is appointed, and there is probably little danger of the Territory losing its present Chief Executive until the warring factions storming Washington agree upon his successor..
