kick over the representation And
will meet and decide what to do re-
garding the ticket for Supervisors.
NOTHING SETTLED.
1--WE have held no caucus as yet
said Jack Lucas to a reporter for the
Advertiser, land until we do there is
no telling what the move will be. /
hear that Curtis Iaukea will be the
candidate for Sheriff against Brown.
and if he is it will be harder for Brown
to get in than if it was someone else
That may be correct, but if there is
to be no fusion and the Home Rulers
nominate a candidate there are not
enough Democratic votes to land Iau-
kea. He will have support from lots
of the white voters in the Fourth and
Fifth and he will draw some of the
Hawaiians, but it is not sure thing
that there will be enough; in fact, it
is doubtful in the extreme Crabbe is
to be aided for Supervisor against Wal
ter Dillingham; and the rumor that he
will go for the nomination for the
lower house is not supported by any
facts. 1t is not at all likely, so say
the men behind the votes, that two
railroad men will be voted in. Dilling-
ham is not now a strong candidate and
he may withdraw when the time
comes. The Fourth will dictate to the
Fifth in spite of the resolution that
provided several things for the district
on the Eva side of the stream.
A DAY OF PROTESTS.
Yesterday was busy day for Chair
man Hustace of the County Commit
tee. Three different protests We're
placed in his hands and they will be
heard at the regular meeting of the
committee tonight. The first one was
filed by Albert Waterhouse, A. w. Van
Valkenburg, Frank K Archer, e. B.
Mikaleni, Noa Mahi, J. p. Keppler, J.
K. Luka, P. K. Kapau, G. w. Nawaa-
koa, Manuel Phillips, John Travis and
c. H. McNally. In this it is charged
that two men were allowed to regis
ter and vote illegally in the Sixth Pre-
cinct of the Fifth District. The pro-
testants declare the act was illegal in
that the vote of Frank Archer was
thrown out after being accepted and
placed in the ballot box. L. A. Thurs
ton is attorney for the protestants.
This is the sequel To the Low-Archer
fight that has gone rounds and rounds
for several months. The row seems to
have grown out of the refusal OF
Archer to comply with the request of
Low to build certain pieces of road.
There was filed yesterday with the
Board of Supervisors paper bearing
upon the matter and which is a part
of the records of the suit of Armstrong
VS.. the o. r. & L. Co. Manager Low
and L. L. -McCandless were in consul
tation with the Supervisors yesterday.
McCandless says Archer has been do
ing a little Supervisor work on his own
account and the paper filed Is merely
to bring him to time.
A protest was also filed by w. c.
Achi and sixteen others of the Eighth
of the Fifth against the election Of A.
S. Kaleiopu, John Kanae, D. Kan. Cap
tain r. Waipa, Jim Cook, N. Fernan-
DEE, H. Kahale, r. NJ. Duncan, Lot
Lane, J. Kapano, H. ]. Aud, z. w.
Kawafaea, r. G. Lane, Sam kaIola,
Nawehi j. K. Maunakea, S. w. Spen-
Ger, Lonokaiolohia. They charge that
the judges, Anton Fernandez, kalei
Aona and Charles Dudoit. violated
section of the rules Of the Republican
party by depriving the defeated cand1-
dates of a watcher, Or secretary, or
allowing one of the candidates to be
in the room where the election was
held for the purpose of challenging the
votes of Illegal voters. They allowed
ballots to be marked by persons other
than the voters. The judges are said,
also, to have allowed ballots to be given
them by n. Fernandez twice, after the
opening of the polls, and said ballots
We're used. It is also charged that the
right to vote was refused in several
instances.
In the Seventh of the Fifth there is
more trouble brewing and there seems
to be determination to throw out the
delegates who received an elective vote
at the primaries. Sam Luahine, of that
precinct, protests with sixteen others,
against the admission of all of the
delegates including Henry Vida for the
