WILL FREAR Hold
CARIfR'S OLD WHIP?

Next to the question as TO what the
new Governor is going TO do in the
way of appointments, the question
that is causing most speculation
around I've Territorial Offices is
whether Lr not he will ask his de-
partment heads to hand in their un-
dated designations.
These undated designations" are
the whip which the present Governor
has held over his subordinates. When
the recent Legislature was in session
they formed the subject of excited dis
cussion in the Senate and came near
causing a. first-class row between the
Executive and the Legislature; In the
end Carter bluffed the Senators clear
off the boards, and their threats OF
what they would do to him fizzled out
into nothing.
In view of the strong feeling against
the undated resignation scheme for
making the department heads toe the
line, 1t is hardly probable that the new
Governor will require his appointees
to give him this hold over them. But

one of the forecasts was correct, al
though some of them thought they had
all the others sized up to fine point.
The official committee did not have
such very hard time of 1t because all
those interested were satisfied to ac-
cept the Bulletins office count as
far as it had been made. Hence un-
less close vote called for a recount
the committee decided to count only
those votes cast since the last of July.
This meant going over more than a
million votes.
The committee and those interested
were on hand at the B bulletin Of
flee promptly at $50 Saturday even
ing. The count had hardly begun be-
fore telephone messages began to come
in asking who won.
Admiral Beckley represented the
Hawaii contingent. Fred Turrell and

L. Callie Lucas interests were prop
erly looked after. Jack McVey was the
representative of Hester Lemons

on the figures for Miss Aloiau and
George Mundon dropped in occasional
ly to see that all the votes were in for
Miss Mundon. There were ten votes
for Miss Mundon in this mornings g

The Bulletin Office was filled to
capacity. The count went forward
without a hitch. All being satisfied.
the committee accepted the B u ! e.
tt n count so far as it had been pub
iished, agreeing that should the result
be very close a general recount would
be made.
The most surprising development Of
the count was the forging ahead OF
Miss Mundon and the falling back OF
Miss Todd Being at the bottom, the
friends of the former were determined
to win. Being at tho top, the friends
Of the latter were apparently over con-
fident. Previous to the ballot box being
opened the predictions were freel,
made that any candidate with more
than three hundred thousand votes
was we'll within the safety line.
Shortly after 8 o'clock the commit
tee thought ii had finished, but ther,
was batch of votes, an overflow from
the ballot box which had been sent
