CRABBE AS
A KNOCKER
The Knife Under the
Ribs for Jarrett
and Jones.

| Whatever may be thought of Crabb
it was not believed that he would al
| low his feelings to lead him into tn
lpaths OF the knocker. But he is
knocker just the same, according t,
the belief of Fifth District man VIII,
was never a strong supporter of tn
| late candidate for sheriff.
WHY CRABBE WITHDREW.
You do not seem to be on TO the rea
| reason for Crabbes withdrawal sale
Hawaiian Republican. Now h,
poses as a candidate for supervisor anC
| am told he never asked, nor wanted
the nomination for sheriff. His play
was for sympathy SO he would get the
nomination for supervisor He was
after sympathy-and votes. And what
is worse / believe he will get one with
the other. 1 am surprised at the state
ment ne makes in an afternoon paper
that Jones and Jarrett are the can
didates of the administra ation. He
knows that statement will hurt the
men whose names ne mentioned and he
knows as we'll as the Governor that
neither Jones nor jarrett would be
blue. Crabbe had better remain in
private life and try and get back the
friendship of the men he would knock
they might be able to help him some
day"
There was a rumor Friday night
after the convention that Vida was
losing caste in the Fifth but chase for
the source proved the opposite to be the
case. A Fifth District man said: I'VE
are going to have Henry Vida for
deputy sheriff whether the people of
the Fourth want him or not; they can
not tell US who we shall have and who
we shall not. We are satisfied to fol-
low Lane and 1T is Lane who tells us
we are to have Vida and he is the man
we viii have. Don't you imagine he
is getting weaker for he is not"
JONES AND JARRETT.
The Jones-Jarrett story sounds all
right but the truthfulness of it is queS
toned. Jones does not want the place
If there can be harmony without his
getting in. Jarrett is well liked by
everyone who knows him but he is not
generally known to the Hawaiians on
this island. Besides it is not sure
thing that he would take the place.
The Governors candidate, if he has
one, is Won Holt and he would take the
place about as soon as Rockefeller
would drop standard oil. Mr.. Won Holt
does not have to go into politics. In
the Fourth it has been suggested that
Solomon Kaleiopu be a candidate for
the deputy sheriffship. Solomon wants
to go to the Legislature but a promi-
nent Fourth District man is authority
for the statement that the Fourth
would throw its strength that way.
Out in the Second of the Fourth it
was said yesterday morning that the
only man that Crabbe would try to
beat would be Walter Dillingham;. But
why he should do Walter is not known.
Why, some of the men in Crabbe's own
do not believe he could beat
Moore, the Democratic candidate. but
there are others who hope he viii win
and who will work tooth and toe-nail
10 put him in office. His sympathy
lodge will bring results but hardly
to himself"
ARCHER AND LOW.
People out in Eva are laughing over
he action of Frank Archer in coming |
back into the fold after declaring he |
would run independently if he did not
Il
me of the missionaries of Eva and he |
Knows his people. He seemed to feel
hat his people want him in the Board |
If Supervisors and for that reason he |
oined the party after Mr. Low read /
Tim out of it Friday night. The stated
nent was made at the meeting that the
did not want him in the
,arty nor in the club so he was voted |
h. St1 6at
hat Archer had been recently elected |
O the executive committee of the club
nd that this could not have been done
lad he not been a Republican or if
he people did not want him. imme-
lately the charge was made that the
meeting that elected him on the execu-
i've committee was a secret one. But
his was not so and the club members
new it. 1t was all very funny while
lasted but funnier to see Archer walk
o the secretary after the crowd of OBJ
actors had gone and tell him what a
ood Republican he is and ask toi
e made a member of the club. That
ettled it. A statement was made by
ONE one that Archer should be doneI
or as he was putting things in thef
apers against Manager Low that were
OF true. There will be a decided
iovement made to defeat Archer next
riday night by killing his delegates
nd next to the results in the Fifth
istrict town precincts the returns
.om the Sixth of the Fifth will be
atched with greatest interest.
IN THE SECOND.
In the Second of the Fourth the club :
Fused to endorse the report of theI
,mmittee and said they would not
ominate for office any man who is
,legate to the convention. That pass
as motion and is spread upon the
inutes. This, then, effectually settles ;
e candidacy of Colonel Jones for the ,
ice of sheriff, unless he should de-
de to withdraw as delegate before S
e election. There was something of V
turmoil out in that precinct and 1t T
oks though the contest will be
