BROWN IS WEAK.

THE game is lost, in my opinion -
said prominent Republican from Ha-
wall yesterday Brown killed himself
in the convention by his open advo-
cacy of John Cathcart for county at
torney. 1t is probable that he is a bet
ter man than Long for the position but
Brown should not have pledged his
support to Long before the convention
was called to order and openly worked
against him after roll call. The Prince
noticed Brown interceding with the
delegates for Cathcart and, 1 believe,
commented upon it. I do not think
Brown made any friends by espous-
ing the cause of Bicknell against Ku-
newa who is a mighty good man. 1t
looks to me as though Brown will have
defeated,
Now that is one side of the question
and it expresses the views of a Ha-
waiian Republican who has always
ed pledges of the Sheriff are hurting
him and he is chafng under the mass
of condemnation he is receiving on ac-
count of his action. A man from the
Fifth District, Republican with lot
of influence at that. said in answer to
a question relative to Iaukeas chances:
A CLOSE FIGHT.
"It means the closest fight Brown
has ever experienced and L have grave
doubts of his election. AS a strict par
ty man I suppose I will be expected
to vote for him and use my influence
for him but it is going to be very hard
to do. Brown was instrumental in
throwing down a Hawaiian to place a
white man and there is no use talking
the Hawaiians do not enjoy it,
This would indicate a color line fight
but the gentleman denied any such in
tention. The voters of the Fifth, that
is the Hawaiian voters, ask only rec

THE FIGHT
FOR SHERIFF
Machine Now Working

Rulers.

Opinions seem to be divided on the
question of the success of Sheriff
Brown at the election. The announce
ment by Mr.. Iaukea that he would be
candidate was something of sur
prise to both sides and disappointing
to the Brown runners.
