The sideboard is spread with

spread with a blue and white denim

adds a homelike touch to the room
and destroys the formality which a
set table gives.

Department sent to Governor Dole an

Reach the Polls-An Inspector thrown
Out.

1t is estimated this afternoon that
about $50 electors in the seventh pre-
cinct of the Fifth district will not be
able to vote on account of lack of time
The condition is unfortunate and
there is now in progress a consultat ton
between politicians as to what can be
done. The watchers of the three parties
in the precinct seem to blame the in
spectors for the trouble, alleging that
they take up too much time in getting
the voters through. In half hour this
morning practically no progress was
made. A protest was then entered by
representatives of the three parties TO
s. *. Kaloa, one of the inspectors, who
was delaying matters on account Of not
having a sufficient knowledge of the
English language. He did not under
stand enough to check off English
names as they were called off The au-
thorities sustained the protest and re-
placed Mr.. KOloa with George Kaia
Matters then ran a little better. About
1880 it was plain to be seen that not
half of the voters could get through if
better time was not made. Robert
Wilcox, Judge Luther Wilcox Abraham
Fernandez, Frank Harvey, T. McCants
Stewart and David Kanuhu, represents
ing the three parties, held a consulta-
tion and declared to recommend to the.
inspectors that a special secretary be
appointed to fold ballots. taking that
part of the work off their hands. The
request was granted and Isaac Sher-
wood was appointed.
Not much improvement was made,
| however for at 1850 only 200 votes had
been polled. There are 597 votes in the
precinct, or nearly 400 vet to comesA
