End of the Campaign.

The end OF the campaign last
night was not pearly so lively as
had been expected. Aside from the
great Home Rule meeting at the
Orpheum, which filled the place to
OVERLOOKING, necessitating a street
meeting; Republican meeting at
Palace Square, and plenty Of free
Republican boozs at the drill shed
under the supervision of zsalous Of
fcers OF thu National Guard-there
we're no really lively features, A
great deal OF excellent campaigning
was done in a quiet way, however,
that must be showing itself today.
The Republicans began the even
ing by toroh.light parade. Not "a
many voters as had been expected
turned out. 80 all the small boys
that could be found were mustered
into the line and given torches.
After a parade of the streets speak
ing was held from a platform at the
corner OF Richards and King streets.
The greatest meeting OF the cam
paign was held by the Home Rulers
at the Orpheum theater. Standing
room was entirely out OF the ques-
ton and an auxiliary street meeting
had to be held for the benefit OF the
immense crowd.

McDuffie Knocked Out.

A rough house was attempted by
High Sheriff Browns henchmen,
the police and members of the Pa
lama fire station in the Seventh
precinct OF the Fifth District this
morning which ended, however, dis
astrously for the perpetrators. Big
Officer McDuffie is in the shop for
repairs and will require few new
teeth; other rascals concerned in
the affair were properly called down,
and only the opportune arrival of
Attorney. q eneral Andrews, who sat
on the hoodlum policemen, prevent
ed big riot.
The voting booth in Palams is of
the lane at the Waikiki-resr end Of
the FIRE statiop,and entrance is gain
ed to it through the lane. There
being so many voters iu the precinct,
the lane was quickly crowded and
remained 80 all the morning. Hood
lum Birbe, who is chairman OF the
Board there, dropped on to the plan
OF admitting known Republicans
through the FIRE house and the rear
Of the booth, after which they were
voted. The meat of the dirty scheme
was, of course, to either tire out the
Home Rule voters IN the lane or else
detain them there until it was too
late to vote. In this project Brbe
was assisted by Detective McDufie
and other policemen, who picked
out known Republicans and put
them through.
1t was during the process OF this
unusual and illegal business that a
certain Home Ruler presented him
self and demanded the right to also
go in the back way. McDutfie stop
ped him and tried to throw him out
1t was then that the voter landed

Marcum lost his life. Tn fact, politics has always played a prominent part in the Kentucky vendettas. Marcum, a member of the Cockrill faction of the Hargis- -Cockrill feud, was shot down while standing in the doorway of the Breathitt county courthouse at Jack son, Ky. He had filed motion for the reopening of certain contested election cases in which the Hargises were vital ly interested, and it is asserted that this was the direct cause of his assas- sination. Although a number of men were near him at the time of the killing the slayer had little difficulty in es, caping. M
 A practical joke was responsible for another feud of long standing-the Howard -Turner-when a lighted match held to the face of sleeping man started an enmity which stirred up all Harlan county, Ky, and resulted in the loss of at least fifty lives. Yet another sanguinary feud in the Blue Grass State was started last year between the Bent leys and the Rameys two large and in-s fuential families. Politics, moonshine whisky and women were mixed up in this feud, as they have been in so many others. The Martin Tolliver feud, with its death roll of twenty-three, was chiefly remarkable because one of it's chiefs, Craig Tolliver, was undoubtedly the most desperate man who ever led feudists. Also worthy of mention as being the first feud of importance in the state was the Hill-Evans vendetta, which began in 1929 as the result of dispute over the ownership of some slaves. This lasted for twenty years.
 Some notorious feuds of other states have been the Chadwell- Morgan in Tennessee, the Malone-Tyler in Georgia and the Barnard Sutton in Tennessee. The first two were strilxingly similar in that both were accompanied by mur- ders committed in churches. In the Chadwell- Morgan trouble forty Chad wells and thirty Morgans have been killed, the crowning horror occurring in 1901, when a Chadwell party attacked the Union Baptist church at Big Springs, Tenn, where the Morgans were attending services. Tn the pitched battle that followed both sides lost heavily.

Baker had been captured in the mountains by a squad of ,militiamen and taken under guard to Manchester, where he was confined in tent in the courthouse yard, surrounded by troops Half an hour before his case was to be called he stepped to the tent entrance. a shot rang out from the house of Sher- if White, across the way, and Baker fell back dead in the arms of his wife, who, before his body was cold, gathered her ten children about it and made them swear to avenge their fathers s death. Since then the feud has been raging intermittently, the latest inci- dent being the killing of Sid Baker a little over a month ago in a roadside battle with William McCollum. At one time the various factions hired a num- Der of men to fight for them, paying each man $1 a day and supplying him with food and ammunition. One of the leaders in this notorious imbroglio was Jim Howard, now under sentence of life Imprisonment for the murder of Gov ernor William Goebel. The Towards have always supported the Whites, while the Bakers have been identified with the Garrards.
 Probably the most expensive feud Kentucky has ever known was the French -Eversole affair, another in- stance of a feud within a feud. It be- gan with the killing of the head of the Confederate family of Gambrills by the Union Eversoles during the civil war, and fighting went on in desultory way until 1884, when Fulton French came from Virginia to Hazard, ky, and opened a store in opposition to Joseph c. Eversole. Trouble soon followed The Gambrills sided with French, and the feud was on again in deadly ear- nest. It is said that French and Ever sole have spent about $150,00O to carry on their warfare, thirty-eight lives be- ing the cost in human blood. One of the feud's many brutal features was the unprovoked killing in 1894 of aged Judge Joshua Combs, who was shot from behind a fence. His only connec- ton with the trouble, it is said, was that he was the father-in-law of an Ev- ersole.
 The French Eversole dispute was largely tinged with politics, and 1t was owing to political feud that Lawyer

IN k kS1 more focused atten- N-ZAzeSYCSl tion on the feud GGS2 SSN0 states of the Union Whatever the reason, the fact remains that in the border counties of Ken lucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and West Virginia men are today to be found imbued with the same spirit that prompted the Scotch border raids the spirit of repayirlg real or fancied wrongs by declaring war to the death upon all connected in any way with those who they deem have injured them and of bequeathing to their sons, gen. eration after generation, hereditary animosity which can only be appeased by the extermination of their enemies.
 The story of the feudists is a ghastly narrative of murder and rapine, of ar son and ambuscades, of cruelty beyond description. As in the Marcum case, assassination by the bullet is the feud ists' favorite method of procedure. So widely recognized is this that when a feud county factionist is riding through a piece of woods or a mountain defile lie will drop the reins and, with re- Nolver in each hand, be on the alert for possible attack.
 Undoubtedly the. most sensational feud in the history of the country has been that of the McCoys and the Hat fields, an interstate affalr involving Kentucky and West Virginia. Like most feuds, it originated in very triv- ial dispute, a quarrel between old Ran daIl Mccoy and Anse Hatfield, better known as Devil Anse." over the own ership of a pair of razorback hogs that would not have brought $S in the open market The dispute finally got into the courts. and after the trial Hatfield witness was mysteriously slain, pre- sunably by one of the Mccoy boys. Three of them were arrested, tried and acquitted. War then began at a rate that promised the speedy extermination of both families. From 1882 to 1884, when the two states were aroused to a realization of the situation, killing and burning went on unchecked.

six feuds on his hands at the same time. "Blood is thicker than water'' is 8 popular cry in the mountains, and the feudists consequently take up the ven- dettas of their relatives and friends with the ardor they display in settling personal accounts.
