WHICH
ELECTION?
MUST BE DECIDED TOMORROW
WHETHER COUNTY OR CITY
AND COUNTY.

When the Supreme Court met this
morning it was expected that decision
on the validity of the Municipal Act,
which provides for a CITY and County
Government for Honolulu, would be
forthcoming, but nothing of the sort
came. Unless a decision is handed
down tomorrow morning, when the
Supreme Court meets at 10 o'clock,
there can be nc county election, in
case the Municipal Act is declared in
valid.
This will Ieave the present Board OF
Supervisors in Office until meeting of
the Legislature may take place and a
special election be provided for.
The sixty days before the election
will expire tomorrow and if the de-
cision of the Supreme Court is against
the Municipal Act it will mean that
the Board of Supervisors will have to
issue the election proclamation under
the old County Act, or will have neg
lected to obey the Act under which
they took their oath of Office.

Frank Winter, promoter of the Ha-

gun second years active operations

deavoring to interest local capital in a
larger proposition. This is for the
manufacture of Portland cement in ad-

Samples of the cement turned out at

If it catches the favor of the market as

conclusively that the issuance cf

would, owing to these reduced rates,
