WHAT THE BALLOTS
DISCLOSE
Continued from page one).

ballots and that any and all the Coun-
ty officers of Oahu may be ousted from
office because never legally elected, is
the proposition raised in the Supreme
Court this morning and apparently re-
garded with considerable approval at
least by one of the justices, in the cleo
ton contest of Fernandez VS.. Adams.
Judge Edings, as counsel for Fernan-
DEE, claimed that under the law there
should have been separate ballots for
each office, and Justice Wilder intimat-
ed that he was disposed to hold the
same view. This would mean that none
of the ballots are legal, and Fernandez
recount would fall to the ground at
once, but the way might be opened, it
is said, to contest by quo warranto or
other proceeding, the right of any sup
posed County officer to hold his office.
Incidentally, the recount promises to
disclose a number of sensations. The
first bundle of ballots opened is a very
interesting one, though it did not dis
c.ose a possible gain of enough to bring
success to Fernandez in the present
contest, if it is an average bundle. 1t
showed that A. NJ. Brown lost more by
rejected ballots than did Fernandez and
it showed that some very extraordinary
ballots were allowed to be counted. The
bundle is that of the first precinct of
the Fourth district, in which the cleo
ton officers were A. F. Clark, s. X. Ka-
maiOpili and j. K Kaohi.
The ballots which were counted by
the election officers are not before the
court as evidence, but they are open to
inspection just the same as the reject
ed ones. An examination OF them
showed three on which not a mark was
made for any candidate at all. There
is no way to tell for whom they were
counted, but at least it is clear that
they were not voted for anyone at all.
Other ballots counted have the voters
crosses very evidently in the wrong
places.
There were SO rejected ballots in the
precinct. On examination of them this
morning it was found that were for
Adams or for neither and 16 were claim
ed for Fernandez. The vote for sheriff
showed Brown IS, Poepoe Z, Henry 5.
Two ballots were for both Brown and
Poepoe and had been rejected on that
account, and one was without any mark
for sheriff.
Most Of the ballots had been rejected
Lecause toe many marks had been
made on Il en-. In eleven cases thece
were votes for four district supervisors,
though Only three were to be ele9'e6.
In other cases the voters had voted for
both Adams and Fernandez, for TWO
county sherlffs, clerks, deputy sheriffs
or some other officer. A few of the bal
lots were utterly spoiled. The ques-
ton before the court and on which a
ruling at two this afternoon was prom
Used during the morning session, was
whether the election officers were right
in rejecting ballots for these reasons.

If the ballots are good the court will
undertake a recount and credit the can
didates with what they are entitled to-.
On the other hand a ruling in favor OF
Judge Edings' claim that none of the
ballots are good, means an end of the
recount, though it may open the way
to proceedings which would turn all the
County officers out altogether. 1t is too
late, it is said, for the starting of new
election contests, but the matter Of the
right of alleged officials to act might
be brought up in some other way
When the case was called this morn
ing in the Supreme Court, Judge Ed
ings, appearing for c. w. Ashford, ask
ed for a postponement, as Ashford was
busy before De Bolt. Douthitt and
Milverton appeared for Supervisor
Adams. Douthitt said he would not OPP
pose continuance, but the court did.
After considerable consultation with
the other justices, Chief Justice Frear
said: THE Court is of the opinion that
the case should proceed now"
Edings wanted to withdraw, saying
the case was Ashfords. The Court said
that every postponement had been at
the plaintiffs request and that the set
ting of the case for this morning had
been to suit his convenience. The court
thought Ashford should have been pres
ent. Ashford was sent for, and Chief
Justice Frear told him he should have
been present in person, as he had had
the caes set. Ashford pleaded his other
engagement, but the court refused a
continuance. Ashford then turned the
matter over to Edings, much to the
evident disgust of the latter, and the
court ordered the hearing to go ahead.
Chief Clerk auckland of the Secre-
tary's Office was called as a witness
and he produced the ballots. The open
ing of the bundles then began and after
the examination of the first bunch, the
court heard argument on the question
of reflections.

A large part of the floating debt is

fact that the outstanding bond issue

seems has been done, or at least the
negotiations have reached a stage
where it is considered necessary to Sc

finances of the company will be great
ly simplified, and the progress out of

A claim that it is "cruel and unusual
punishment to march a convict along
the public streets and make him work
in public, clothed in convict garb, has
been advanced in the Supreme Court by
L. M. Strauss & Mossman, in support
of a petition for a writ of habeas cor
pus for Wong Lung. The hard labor
gangs of Oahu Jail are marched to and
fro in public every day and If Wong
point is well taken there will have to be
a very radical change in Oahu prison
methods Wong is under sentence of
six months for receiving stolen goods
and recently begun a habeas corpus pc
tition before Judge De Bolt, who de-
MED a writ. The grounds urged before
De Bolt, that the complaint on which a
conviction was had failed to charge any
offense and that High Sheriff Henry
was not the officer authorized by law
to imprison Wong, are urged again in
the new proceeding filed today, with
the cruel punishment proposition added,
as follows:

The final result is a gain of $50 Ha
waiian voters and a gain of only 81 of
all the others together. This is be-
lieved to be due more to the register
ing of Hawaiians who didn't take part
in the first Territorial elections than to
the growing up of new voters. Their
gain of $50 in one election gives the
Hawaiians $3.50 voters and the total
of all others is 1898.

DOG SAVED LITTLE MISTRESS
Example of Reasoning on Part O,
Household Pet

"P'S VI reasoning on Fart OF
Household Pet.
The intelligence and faithfulness OF
a dog probably saved the life of Ber-
ina Lackmer, ten years old, by its
strange actions before the child's
mother, says the Chicago Chronicle.
The child had gone in the fields
around her home to gather blackber
r1es, accompanied by her pet dog
Nero, and had wandered several
blocks from home. She was about to
cross the street at Harvard and SEQ
vile avenues, when she stepped into
the opening of a catch basin which
mad been completely covered with
weeds
The rains had filled the bottom with
water to the depth of a foot, and this
probably saved her from severe iniu-
ries. Nero whined around the edge
of the basin and barked frantically
but the child had strayed so far away
from any houses that neither the dogs
bark nor the childs screams were
heard.
At last the dog started on a run for
home, and reaching there. ran up to
the child's mother, who was on the
back porch, and barking at her.
turned around and ran in the direction
OF the accident. When Mrs Iackmer
did not follow it returned and repeated
