DISTRICTS AND PRECINCTS.

'Citizen," who probably repre-
sents many, wishes to have the
boundaries of the electoral precincts
described. They are laid down in
the Election Proclamation published
in this paper once week (Satur-
day). The Government issued maps
of the city in 1887, showing by col
ored lines and figures the districts
and precincts. There are not facili-
ties in Honolulu to get up n news
paper map, without greater expense
than any office can afford, for show
ing the metes and bounds. How
ever, we shall try to describe them
verbally, in words different from
that of the proclamation, so as to
help out an understanding of that
document in this particular.
