.,otod that at two o'clock in the after
,on five hours before timo for closing
ths polls, the election board opened the
ballot box and began the cou' ting of

tho ballots of others as thsy came in.
The ballot box could net be lawfully
oraped aud the count began until after

# was also said that number of illegal
votes we're received by the toard, but
this may turn ont TO be mis- axe. 1t
is also reported that in the outside pre-
cipct at Palouse serious irregularity
was permitted. When the count was
finished the judges found that one more
ballot had been cast than had been
counted Ia skirmishing about an I'M
voted ballot, marked, was found in q
booth and was allowed in the count.
This was most serious blund3r on the
part of the board, as il gave splendid
opportunity for the purchase of votes n
that one ballot.

arose over the capabilities Of Luke
Rawls and his prospects of election.
Gustin expressed his opinion OF Rawls
incompetency and illiteracy in unm;stak-
able tones. Edwards punched him in
the face and the fun began. For few
moments some professional work IN the
Singing line was INDUCED in and In
the end the ropulist called ''enough.'
The neighborhood is worked up over the
encounter.
There have been wild rumors of duel
between well-known parties of this place
since election day. 1t seems that a

Doctor M. Makalua.

In fit of what the Advertiser
terms generosity. the councils
yesterday voted the sum of $500
for the return passage of DIR,
Makalua. 1t is not at all clear
that the offer of this paltry
pittance towards his expenses out
will induce Doctor Makalua to
quit a country and people where
the shade of q mans skin is no
more social b rrier than the color
of his hair or eyes. The AdUer-
tiser is generous in suggesting
a second-class passage for the
kanaka" in preference to a
steerage one, but how about his
wife; daughter of a Colonel of
the British Army and their child
rem.
Doctor Makalua has attained
high distinction in MS profess ion
and moves In the best society,
and is possessed of means sufh
cient to come out and return.
For the peace of mind of himself
and wife we would advise him to
remain in England; but memory
dwells fondly over ones birth
place, and his countrymen want
him among them; Mr. Damon.
also, who at the risk of offending
the crowd Of medieos who coasti-
tute about tenth Of the foreign
population is resolved to tempt
DIR. Makalua to come.
The Advertiser never raised a
howl over the expenses-whicb
ran into thousands-incurred In
bringing DIR. Aiming. Lutz and
others out here, and in the case
of these two gentlemen named.
the causes which led to their
departure were eminently dis
creditable to the Advertiser
party, and injurious to the credit
of the country.

A WARM GRASP.
A Most Unique Address.

A delegation from the Amer
lean League boarded the Mari
posa yesterday and Drawing the
imminent danger of sinking the
vessel by the following heavy"
article presented their address to
w. G.. Smith the departing editor
of the Star. 1t is difficult, but
interesting conundrum to solve
at whom the address is directed.
The warm Grasp of friendship
is pretty good for Tim
Gentlemen: A few of US have
assembled here to bid farewell to
an admired and valued friend. To
Mr.. Smith [ say, on behalf of
the American League. that we
feel we are losing fast friend
and earnest ally. His departure
leaves a distinct vacancy. We
shall miss his presence, his voice
and his pen. There leaves us one
whose blows we're heavy, whose
thrusts were clean, whose every
effort In our cause was well
directed and effective.
In leaving these Islands Mr..
Smith creates deep and wide
interval in the ranks of those
battling steadfastly, persistently,
courageously and uncompromis-
ingly for the cause of annexation
and Americanism
All of you are familiar with his
record among us. He has been
the moving, active genius OF
those principles dear to Us. he
has been foremost in the struggle
for liberty. He has been leader
In the movement TO secure for US
those privileges for which our
forefathers nobfy bathed the soil
of the United States In blood.
He has been aggressive. faithful
and untiring. strength to our
cause.
To the worth of such a friend
we are able. unfortunately. to
pay Int slight tribute. We can
offer him only the warm grasp of
friendship and tn e best wishes of
the heart.
In the expressive tongue of
this favored land We say to him
Aloha, Aloha Nui. May be
prosper as his talents and his
merits deserve.

generally stated-and never

it.

Explanation Wanted.

We are not trying to be chronic
howlers. or to find fault with the
government without good reason,
but We must say that the slip
shHd manner in which appropri-
atoms are made, and heavy
amounts are expended deserves
criticism. That is as long as they
are not explained in better
manner than now is in vogue.
Among the appropriations
yesterday by the Councils we find
the following item.
Expense of placing
loan of 1898 $50. 500 90
Now, what loan" has been
placed in 1898 that has justified
an expenditure of $40. s60l When
in fact. has eny loan been
placed since the English loan
was censumated by Colonel
George W. Macfarlanea II isyet
fresh IN our minds how Mr. Mac
farlane was abused and insulted.
because the expenses of placing
q two million dollar loan amount
ed to 5000. And remember
well that the loan negotiated on
behalf OF Hawaii by Mr.. Macfar-
lane was the frst foreign financial
transaction OF this country. That

TWICE DEFEATED.
Thurston Isn't Wanted

We noted the significant defeat
OF Lorriu A. Thurston IN our
Yesterdays issue when We re-
ported that bis impudent request
to Ice given the freedom of the
floor. IN the Constitutional
Convention was voted down by
an overwhelming majority. Later
in the day his friends made an
other attempt to get the celebrat
ed Snowman ON the floor by
attempting to elect him to the
vacant seat in the Advisory Coun-
Gil Even there Mr.. Thurston
met his Waterloo. The great and
good patriot wouldn't OF couldn't
give ~ his salary to serve his
country. The sincere, intel
Igent, honest and unselfish
statesman who at one time pub
licly declared that he never
(hardly ever would take Office
Insists now in being fed at public
expense.
The Councils couldn't see it
though. The members kicked
and held thnt { Thurston wanted
his salar, he conldn't have the
seat. If Ire wanted the seat let
him give up the salary.
The always servile friend of
Thurston. the learned Attorney
General objected. In his whiu
ing although heavy voice he
called the attention of the wise
men to the fact that Thurston
bad not been IA financial success
during the last year. "Bllly's'
words fell on the floor with a
deep. solemn thud, but somehow
the Councillors were unmoved
Several claimed that they hadn't
been great financial successes
since they, in . weak moment,
joined the p. z. but still the tax
payers did not pay them anything
for their services. La spite of
Smiths protestations, in spite of
the alleged popularity of Mr..
Thurston, in spite of the vast
expenditure of soft soap. gas and
other Inducements, the little tin
Jesus of the p. g. was hoored
once more and J. A. McCandless
went in with flying colors. We
cannot help admiripg the Coun-
ellis for their manly and extreme
~ proper action. If the members
are consistent they will discon
tiuue the salary of Thurston. in
case he should prefer to loaf
around on honey moon trip in
Hawaii instead of attending to
his duties in Washington. Chas.
J. Carter got a surprise and so
did the Thurston clique. but the
country looks with a little more
confidence atthe Convention than
it did previously to this utter
defeat of Lorrin Andrews Thurs
ton.

MORE SWEARING.
Another Oath Needed

Of The provisional government

the honor and integrity of them
selves. Another oath Is needed
The wisemen who constitute the
convention have tn pledge them
selves once more to abjure. alb

They have ali sworn before.
Taking an oath IS as frequent a
habit with them as taking a
drink, bat they can't get enough
--oaths we mean. All of them
have been sworn and sworn sgain
and again. but wiseman Wilder
waited more swearing and he
got it This is the latest oath:
Il do solsmuIy swear in the
presence of Almighty God that |
will support aud bear true ailegi-
ance to the Provisional Govern
.nent OF the Hawaiian Islands,
and will oppose any attempt to
re-estsblish monarchicaI govern
ment in any form in the Hawai-
ian Islands. and will faithfully
perform the duties of member of
the constitutional Convention. "
OF course. the community can
have no objection to the swearing
habit, but we would ike to know
why our esteemed friend John
". kalua opposed the latest form
of pledge. He has never been
very particular III that respect.
Sometimes he would take an
oath to oppose the government
and then he would break it.
Sometimes be would swear o, IF
and take a pledge to Frank Judd
and then he would smile. .
At other times he swore solemnly
to support Queen LilIuokalani-
and then he joined the p. G.
and swore to uphold the
cause of annexation, and to
down the monarchy. Why
one more or less oath should
worry the honorable" gentle,
man from Wailuku. we are unable
