quiet. One of the best known Home
Rulers in the Territory is responsible
for this statement: I'VE are using
smokeless powder just now; the bomt

make a try to beat him."
KALAUOKALANI, SR., FOR
SHERIFF.
The Home Rulers are working
quietly in Honolulu and the question OF
a nominee for Sheriff has had serious
quiet consideration from some of the
leaders. There is a feeling that there
may be someone in the party who can
beat Brown and they have an eye on
a Hawaiian who will make the run.
An intelligent member of the party
says on the step:
I'VE have several good men in our
ranks who could make the fight and
win. I have my mind on David Ka-
lauokalani, ST., as a candidate 1or
Sheriff. and 1 believe he will win. Achi
is against Brown and he will vote for
anyone in order to beat him out at this
election. Well, if we make the kaia-
uokalani boom swell up and he gets the
nominal ton, what is the matter with
Achf throwing all of his labor vote our
way to beat Brown? Achi knows his
help will do it and he will have all the
credit for the feat"
WANTS SAM TO QUIT
The Sam Johnson coterie of politi-
clans are having laugh over Achfs
attack on the Russian in his speech
at Aala Park Saturday night His re
marks We're addressed to an audience
of supposed working men and his at.
tack was on man who is giving them
employment. This fact was mentioned
at the meeting by one voter in CONVEX
sation with one of the new party. the
latter said that it might be all right
for johnson to give work to the citi-
zens on their promise to vote as he
told them, but it was a strange idea OF
freedom. IF Johnson would put men
to work" he said without regard TO
their voting privileges, it would seem
better, and he might get more friends
and more votes when election day
comes along"
That remark is not a new one and 1t
has been discussed by members of the
party on several occasions.
The discussion came about, however,
more on account of the Road Super
visor taking the bit in his teeth and
ignoring the party leaders Members
of the county committee feel that they
are entitled to some consideration, and |
some respect. in the appointing of men
to work on the roads. They are said
to believe they may be able to turn a
few votes for their candidate friends
if they We're allowed to show that they |
had a bit of influence with the boss
+ the highway.
Auditor Bicknell is one of those who
seem deeply concerned in the selection
Of good man for the Office of the |
County Attorney. When told that John !
cathcart had expressed willingness
10 be a candidate if.the party wanted
him, he seemed satisfied. MIR. Cath

well and Cathcart would make
