WILL GET
OUT VOTES
Republicans Work
to Cast Full
Register.
VOTERS MUST BE
AT POLLS EARLY
Young Men Plan to Use Their
Time in Urging Elders
to Ballot.

Republicans are perfecting their or
ganization for the purpose of seeing
that every vote is cast by the members
of the party. Wednesday is steamer
day and the fact that there may be
mail by the transport the day before,
promises to keep every business man
at his desk until late. The Fourth Dis
trict committee has issued a call for
every Republican to vote early, so that
there may be no failure to vote before
the close OF the polls.
In this work the Young Mems Re-
publican Club is expected to have
large share. The young men are pre-
pairing to give part OF the day to the
vide the city that every man. who
might forget to cast his vote through
business demands upon his time, shall
be waited upon and solicited to vote,
and conveyed to the polls and back to
his office in the very shortest possible
time. The men who will take up this
branch of the work expect to be able
to secure many scores of votes for
Harris by this means. They have car
riages at their disposal and will strive
to have the business men leave their
desks for the polls early in the day SO
that they will not be in danger of be-
ing beaten out by the chance to vote
later.
The meeting of the Republican COM
mittee yesterday morning was large
and there was an amount of enthusi-
asm in evidence. The committee on
meetings reported that there would be
three meetings this evening, at Pauoa,
Manoa and Kew alo. where there will be
some rivalry, both parties having
meetings advertised for the first and
last places. The men who have spoken
before will appear at these meetings,
though the definite assignments have
to be made.
The Home Rulers held a short meet
ing yesterday, but did little owing to
the fact that there is a large number
of meetings advertised for this even
ing, the places and speakers having
been given out Saturday morning. The
Democrats held an hours session and
discussed what they are to do in the
fight. The meeting was only fairly at
tended. The members canvassed the
speakers they could send out on the
stump to aid in the fight. There was
not a sufficiently full meeting to justi-
fy the making of a list, and this was
put off until the meeting of the COM
mfttee today at which there will be
complete list of speakers made up and
sent to the Home Rulers.
Candidate Dreier, like Cincinnatus.
will be called from home to public life
if he is summoned, for both parties
have signified that he does not need
to make any fight. that they will make
il for him.
There has been published an address
which gives his assent to the platform,
which declares for the Republican Ma
tional Administration and reflects upon
the Governor. Mr.. Dreier said last
night that he had neither written nor
signed any such declaration He said
probably some of his friends who knew
of the sentiments he had expressed
during the past week had written the
address, which appealed to him as
good one.
