tee that it had no prerogative to
or legal power to. grant the petit
tion as above set forth, giving to
the committee a letter containing
the opinion of the Attorney Gen
eral on the question sustaining
his position which is hereto at
tached.
On motion made and seconded,
which was carried, the chair re-
quested Mr.. D. R. Johnson to
present his claims to the COM
mittee.
Mr.. johnson in presenting his
claim stated that unless the COM
mittee had a legal right to grant
the petition, that he would re-
quest it's withdrawal, and did so
request that the committee would
consider the petition as with
drawn.
/ A motion was then made by
Mr.. R. B. McNiel and seconded
by Mr.. w. M. Thompson, that
such withdrawal be accepted,
which motion was carried.
The following resolution was
then introduced by Mr.. W. T.
Reeves, proxy for J. D. Bryan:
Resolved, That F L. Kincan-
non, candidate for circuit clerk,
and John Stevens, candidate for
| treasurer of this county, be and
they are hereby declared the par

the secretary of this committee is
directed to have their names
placed on the ballots to be voted
in the party primary to be held

didates for these Offices"

ton of this resolution, which was
seconded by w. w. Trice.

lowing resolution as a substitute
for the above:
Resolved, That the secretary

hereby directed to place the
names of IL. Kincannon on the

Opinion Of Attorney General.

Department of Justice,
Atty Genl's office,
R. V. Fletcher, Atty Gen.
August 18th, 1907.
Hon. Geo. T. Mitchell,
Tupelo, Miss.
Dear Sir:-I have your tele-
phonic request for an opinion
upon the following statement of
facts.
1t appears that in Lee county
in the races for county treasurer
and circuit clerk no nominations
were made at the first primary.
The county executive committee
after canvassing the returns of
the first primary declared the two
highest candidates entitled to en-
ter the second primary. Since
this declaration of the executive
committee the second candidate
for each of the above Offices has.
withdrawn from the race leaving
the first candidate for each office
unopposed. It is now suggested
that the county executive COM
mittee has the right to convene
at this time and place on the
ticket for the second primary not
only the name of the remaining
unopposed candidate, but the
name Of the one standing third
in the race, as shown by the re-
turns of the first primary. / am
asked for an opinion as to wheth-
er this may be done by the county
executive committee.
Section 3705 Of the Code of 1906
provides that after the first pri-
mary the county committee shall
meet and announce the names Of
those candidates to be submitted
! to the second primary.
Section 3700 of the Code pro :
vides that if no candidate re-
ceives a majority Of the popular
vote in the first primary that the
two candidates that receive the
highest popular vote shall have
their names submitted as candi-
dates at the second primary. It
is perfectly clear to me that no
candidate is entitled to be voted
on in,the second primary unless
he be one Of the two persons re-
ceiving the highest popular vote
! in the first primary. In other
words all but the two highest
candidates were defeated on the
first Of August and such defeated
candidates have no interest what
ever in the second primary. The
selection Of the two highest for

a1ER SPEAKING IN CHURCH.

1 Mr.. Patterson's statement as con
| aimed in the Bulletin of last evening
Is libelous in the extreme" said Attor.
Eey General Peters when interviewed
last evening.
1t was late in the afternoon wher
the article was called to my attention
and most of the office force had left
Tor the day. ] Immediately sent out
for Mr.. Patterson, but he could not be
Iound And it was only after waiting
| for him personally at his place of bust
| hess that 1 was able to learn some
Risg sRisgs- the nature of the charge
made.
AT first Mr.. Patterson absolutely re.
fased to say anything about the mat
ter. but Nhen- presented with the al.
terna tive of telling me who the person
was who had made suggestions to him
or relating the facts to the grand Jury
he stated that the representative of
the department to whom he referred in
his article lived on Wilder avenue, but
that he did not know his name
"Mr. Fleming lives on Wilder avenue
and upon communication with him I
ascertained that some two months ago
Mr.. Patterson was employed by Mr.
Trent to do some carpentry work on
Mr. Fleming's home, and that while
there complained bitterly that under
present conditions in Honolulu a white
man could get nothing to do, and Mr.
Fleming in response suggested that the
de21and for mechanics in San Francisco
was in excess Of the supply, and that
under such conditions lucrative EN-,
ployment could be easily obtained.
THE suggestion by Mr.. Fleming, 1
am sure, was made in all kindness, and
natural one to make upon the COM
plant made. And it seems to me that
Mr. Patterson's statement in view of
Mr.. F1eming's explanation is reckless
in the extreme
1.-The only explanation that I can
make in view of the circumstances is
an undue regard by Mr.. Patterson OF
his own personal Importance, and the
by him that his knowledge
of the conditions concerning which he
obtained some notoriety in connection
with his position as an inspector on
the Nuuanu dam was such, that those
affected might desire its suppression by |
eis absence. Our department Is GER
