The campaign ended last night. The
battle of the ballots began this morning
The Republicans closed their cam
paign in a blaze of glory. A monster
torch light procession through the down
town streets ended in the biggest cam
paign meeting of the year at Capitol
square. Chairman Clarence Crabbe
presided. Gov. Dole and others were
, on the platform. Speeches were made
by Col. Sam Parker, Robert N. Boyd,
Clinton j. Hutchins, Judge Mahaulu,
w. w. Harris, William Aylett, Lorrin
Andrews and Prince Kuhio. The latter
was cheered TO the echo. There were
, large and successful meetings elsewhere
also, one of them being at the Kalihi de-
tention camp.
The Home Rulers closed their cam
paign with a meeting on the ruins of
the old Kaumakapili church at which
Wilcox, Ng Mon War and others spoke.
Ng Mon War was frequently jeered by
the natives.
THE EARLY MORN.
Republican headquarters proved a
quiet spot first thing this morning in
cOntradist stinction to the Home Rule
camp. Men came up quietly and pos
sessed themselves of what they needed
to go out quietly and quickly to work
again. There were no loungers, no con-
sultations. Everyone knew what was
needed to be done and what part he had
to play and was out doing it,
At Home Rule headquarters throng
of natives stood around the official lists
and argued over their names. 1t gen.
orally took each individual three or four
minutes to discover his name on the
printed rolls and often he mistoOk some
one elses and an argument followed be-
cause it was spelled wrong. The party
leaders were not present
IN THE FIFTH.
The Eighth, Ninth and Tenth pre-
cincts of the Fifth Districts all showed
a good early vote. The Eigth, in 4-chi' s
warehouse, had a line of citizens on
hand when the polls open, large pro-
portion of them being natives. Cupid
buttons We're in evidence everywhere,
however, and the Republican watchers
viewed the situation hopefully. The
voting went on steadily and quietly.
The same conditions prevailed in the
Ninth and Tenth precincts. The latter
is at the corner Of Kuakini and Nuuanu
street, where the vote was largely white
There was a line of voters at the booth
all morning. Voting was rapid.
In the Aala warehouse voting was not
so quick, but all was harmony. Judge
Kaulukou watched the proceedings
most of the morning. There were Cupid
buttons galore, among the natives who
came to this precinct.
FIRST OF THE FOURTH.
"Nothin doing wasthe report at the
first precinct of the fourth district. Sc
far as any incidents" and rows were
