LITTLE CAME
Mandates Taking Steps to Find
Out Where They Are at
in Politics.

Republican voters Of Manoa, College
Hills and Punahou, residing in the See.
ond Precinct, Fourth District, are Just
now from Missouri. They want TO know
the caliber of the men who may be
chosen to represent the precinct at the
Territorial and County conventions. and
Just how those men viii vote in the con
ventions.
just because the precinct club neld
meeting in July, under circumstances
that were rather indefinite as to time
and place, and a 'slate'' of officers
from president down TO the last name
on the executive committee was handed
in by a lamp trimmer of the road de-
partment and run through, and just be
cause the voters Of the detached see
tions of Manoa and College Hills knew
little or nothing about it, an informal
meeting of the Mandates was held at
the car waiting station at the junction
of Manoa road and Kamehameha ave.
nue. on Thursday evening, to discuss the
situation.
A committee, including Judge Weav-
er, Fred l. Waldr0p and De Freest
was appointed to confer yesterday noon
with Eugene Buffandeau, president of
the precinct club, and deputy clerk OF
the County Clerk g Office. and ask that
he sign call for caucus meeting for
Monday night next, which he did.
The Mandates are taking interest IN
the coming primaries and want to know
all that is going on. There are thirteen
delegates to be sent from the Second
Precinct to the convention, and, as it
is understood that a deal is on to throw
the weight of the vote of the road de.
partment into the nominating meeting
so that as many as possible of these
thirteen delegates will be of the So
called Browne athcaxt faction, they ask
TO be "let i'm just far enough to see
what kind of slate is being fixed up
AT the July meeting for the election
of club officers, lamp trimmer Male
handed in slate of officers which went
through nicely, with Buffandeau s name
at the head of it as president. The
meeting was held on Buffandeau s
premises, and not at the empty store
on Beretania avenue where meetings
are usually held. Feeling that more
'tslate' proceedings of this nature
might take place at the coming meet
ings the Mandates eft al suddenly de-
termined they were from Missouri and
want to be shown, and incidentally
have representation in the convention.

Spouse. The object is one of unique
merit, and in past benefit affairs for
the Settlement, residents have respond

The appearance of Madame Arral will
undoubtedly prove drawing card. The

her, especially in the mad scene in
Hamlet, and three scenes ia Mignon.
She will be assisted by Mrs. Charles
B. Cooper and Mrs. Sidney NJ. Ballou.

chises large number Of these. There
are abundant other reasons why the
Act is void. -
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-08-22
Wherein City Act Fails.

First-An attempt on the part of the
Legislature of the Territory of Ha-
waii to grant TO a corporation special
and exclusive privileges and immuni-
ties without the approval of Congress.
Seeond-That it requires other and
different qualifications for the electors
under the Act than are presented aud
provided for in said Act of Congress;
and disqualifes and disfranchises a
large portion of the duly-qualified
electors Of said Territory and said
County of Oahu.
That the said Act is unconstitution-
al in
That there are numerous private ag-
ricultural corporations embraced within
the boundaries of said municipal cor
poration, not subject to control on the
part of the Territory, except in the ex-
ercise of the police power, their con-
tracts being contracts within the mean
ing of the contract clause of the Fed
eral Constitution which the States and

that the said act of the Legislature of

That the said respondents, the said

the same TO the several Boards of In

such proclamation TO post in the manner
required by law as required to do by
Section SO Of said Act, and they, the
said respondents, the Board of Super

any time to issue said proclamation and

and believes, and so alleges, issue said
proclamation at least sixty days be-

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-08-22
Why Municipal Act Is Void.

That the said Act is void for mas.
much
First-That municipal taxes may be
imposed on lands strictly rural in char
acter and therefore not capable of res
ceiving the benefits or advantages
usually derived from municipal organ
iZatien.
Second-That the boundaries of said
municipal corporation as sought to be
established by said Act are inaccurate,
indefinite and uncertain.
And your petitioner further shows
that he is duly-qualifed elector of
said County of Oahu and eligible to
any of the offices created by the said
Act entitled "An Act Creating Coun-
ties Within the Territory of Hawaii
and Providing for the Government
Thereof, - and has lawful right to
have said respondents issue said proc
lamation as aforesaid and transmit
copies of the same to the several
boards of inspectors throughout their
county, as aforesaid, and to do and
perform all acts and things required
of them by said statute.

COL Frank H. Hyland Of Devils

A Priest with the Christ Spirit.

From the Telegraph.
A Denver priest the other day received
a letter from a man saying that he was
going TO kill him. Following fresh upon
the assassination OF Father Heinrichs.
there was reason to fear the threat and
to guard against the fulfllment.
Instead Of calling the police to his pro-
lection, or giving the Letter to the news
papers, the priest the next day followed
his usual way to church and came upon
a man lurking behind a tree. Going up
to the man the priest pvt his hand on
his shoulder and said to him: ''You are
hungry. my friend. come With me and
eat scr
And the mAnswent with him. and when
he had eaten the priest took him 20 q
s~anitarium. engaged a good room for him
and paid In advance for the care and
treatment which 1t is hoped will restore
the mans mental poise.
1T was nothing the priest answered.
when news of the incident reached tho
public. The man was hungry; hunger
sometimes goes to the brain 1t had
gone TO the brain OF the assassin OF Father
Leo. for the assassin being poor had eaten
nothing I'm four full days.
THE bravest are the tenderest." but
there was more than bravery In this name
less priest. There was courage. the cour-
age to 20 to one who needed human SYM
patty and the help OF brotherhood, on
the chance OF losing his own life.
Soldiers do such. things In the passion

incidents are rare. Instead of bread we
offer a bone, and we call Tor the execu-
tion OF the poor demented In atonement

The remarkable manner In which. the

creeps UP around the stills until the
