The above Is the ticket which
was evolved amid the chaos of the
Democratic convention yesterday af-
ternoon and evening. The session
lasted much longer than was antici-
pated. owing to the confusion, which
was. however. due not so much to
contesting factions as to the fact that
the hall was so crowded that the del
egates 'perforce had to tumble all
over each other whenever It became
necessary for them to leave their
seats to ballot.
The session was not wanting in
spectacular features, as, for instance,
when George Lowe. running for
County Clerk, was denounced as a
bad man" by his own precinct,
which. as a matter of fact. gave him
practically the only opposition Offer
ed his nomination.
Another interesting feature was
contributed when the balloting for
four Supervisors from the Fourth
District revealed the fact that Vida,
Gandall, and Peters had tied for the
fourth place with sixty votes each.
The great question was whether vi
da would get in or not, some leaders
being strongly opposed to his candi-
dacy, as they believed that he would
weaken the whole ticket, while 9th.
ers were anxious to enlist his I'M
doubted strength among the Hawaii
ans. 1t must be said that even the
leaders who were opposed to his can
didacy, though they believed that a
recount would bring Vida In. agreed
to a recount rather than another bal
lot. and were much surprised when
this elected Peters.
Fern for Mayor
r. H. Trent nominated Joseph ].
Fern for Mayor. Nominations closed
and Fern was nominated by a unanl-
nous vote.
Fern made short speech thank
ing for the nomination, stating that
he would, II elected, take the advice
of his party brothers.
The Chair called for nominations
for four Supervisors from the Fourth
District.
Moore nominated Ed. Ingham,
stating that he deserved the nominal
tion on account of his work for the
party.
Supervisors Nominated
Palau nominated Jesse Uluihi.
Antoine nominated O'Brien, but he
withdrew.
Juen nominated J. W. Iona.
Pakele nominated Tom Gandall.
OBrien nominated w. II. McClel-
Ian.
Ashford said that II was the duty |
Of the Democratic party to nominate
good Supervisors, and It seemed to
him that 1t was very desirable that
Fern, as Mayor. have on the Board
an old comrade and friend like Frank
Il. Harvey, who, he hoped. would be
that 1t was his duty to
run Tor Supervisor. Ashford wound
up by nominating II. T. Moore.
Other nominations were made OF
V. Peters, M. Il. Sila, and Henry
Vida.
lngham stated that he would, IL
defeated in the ballot for Supervisor,
lecllne to accept nomination for any
)ther Office.
The candidates were then pledged.
II. 7. Moore announced his with
travail as candidate for Super
,isor.
1t was found that Gandall and
ona were not present. and 1t was
'uled that as they could therefore
lot be pledged. they could not be
'oted for. Later Gandall showed up
n time to save himself.

Their Candidates In

and Keawehaku were appointed
judges of election.
Confusion Reigns
A period OF the usual Democratic
Tower of Babel confusion followed,
the delegates being In the dark as to
the method to be pursued. and clam
oring vociferously for enlightenment.
Some delegates wanted each district
to vote for its own Supervisors. 9th
ers wanted the two districts to vote
first for four Supervisors from the
Fourth and then for four Supervisors
from the Fifth. Still others wanted
the two districts to vote together for
all the Supervisors at once. Finally
there were others who did not know
what they wanted. but managed to
waste considerable time by talking,
nevertheless.
Watson moved that the Fourth
vote for Its four and the Fifth for its
three candidates and that each then
ratify the elections made by the 9TH
er. This carried, and the Chair call
ed for nominations for three Super-
visors from the Fifth.
The following were nominated: J.
kuhia. J. j. Dias, ]. X. Paele, II. N.
Crabbe, and Geo. Holt.
Another general talkfest followed
without rhyme. rule. or reason, the
convention at this time coming dan
gerously close to resembling a mix
up.
Finally the elections were carried
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1908-09-24

kuhia, Paele, and Dias were con-
sequently declared elected.
Jarrett for Sheriff
watson nominated VIM. p. Jarrett
as the man who had made the best
Deputy Sheriff and would be the best
Sheriff Honolulu had ever had. He
was nominated by a unanimous vote
and rousing cheers.
1ngham nominated Geo. X. Lowe
for County Clerk.
lokewe nominated r. w. Cathcart.
calling attention to the fact that
Lowe was absent.
lngham produced letter from
Lowe wherein he pledged himself to
abide by the platform and the result
OF the convention.
Strong Attack on Lowe
A Hawaiian delegate said Lowe
was bad man.
The Chair ruled that loves writ
ten pledge was sufficient.
O'Brien stated that Lowe was n
very unpopular man In shis own pre-
cinct. which would not vote for him.
Vida said that those In charge of
the convention had wanted to rule
out because he was absent.
Now you reverse your ruling IN
the case Of Love-" he cried. Prob
ably because he is a friend Of some
OF you. What is sauce for the goose
should be sauce for the gander."
The Chair ruled that In this case
Lowe had filed pledge. which was
sufficient.
AT this point II was decided to
vote for County Clerk by q rising
vote. which resulted as follows:
Lowe ..120
Cathcart ......... 26
Lowe was declared elected.
A recess was taken until 1880 pm.

were opened for County Attorney
and named Judge Edings. His nom
ination was made unanimous. also
by a rising vote.
Three for Auditor
c. w. Ashford nominated Fred.
Turrill for Auditor with speech
which was received In silence.
John Anderson's name was pro-
posed by Kane. and 1t was moved
that nominations close. The ap-
plause with which Anderson's name
was received augured well for him.
Ashford here brought up the point
that Cathcart had been named as a
candidate at the caucus OF the even
Ing before. and his name ought to
come before the convention. T. s.
Martin nominated Cathcart.
Fern Wanted to Talk
Mr.. Chairman" said Joe Fern,
when recognized. II have no candi-
date to propose. but l want to make
a speech"
He was at first called out Of order,
but later allowed to speak. which he
did, as follows: "Mr. Chairman and
Gentlemen Of the Convention: We
have had three candidates named,
and will second the nominations
and bring the matter to a vote"
An objection was made that Cath
cart was not present to pledge him
self. A Hawaiian delegate objected
that George Lowe had been nominat-
ed during the afternoon for County
Clerk without being present to
pledge himself.
Howell reminded the convention
that Cathcart had pledged himself
earlier In the day to support the
ticket when his name was up for
Clerk.
Mr.. Cathcart's eligibility was al
lowed. and the others took the Gus
tomary pledge.
Anderson Nominated
Anderson was nominated BY an
overwhelming majority In the ballot
ing. the result being as follows:

Committee. By motion. the forego-
Ing were made the nominations of
the party. 1t was omitted to require
the pledge.

THE STORY.

&c OLOM0Nl Solomon Breath

getting no response, she raised her
voice and cried:

and as she rushed into the palace

OF her voice awoke the echoes. and
the seurrying feet OF the servants

her presence.

peared. For an instant she contem-
plated the wondering servants as they
gathered before her, and then com
manded them sharply

A scurrying Of feet and again the
woman was left alone.
''The king has promised" she ex-
claimed as she paced nervously to

Adonllah's cause was strong.
David was old and greatly en-
feebIed. Certainly ne did not
court another rebellion. How
was It. then, that he could act
with such precision, such posi-
tlveness, such boldness7 It was
faith. Nothing in the world
could have pulled David togeth-
er and revived his waning facul-
ties but the sense Of the ohllqa-
tion which he owed God and the
consciousness that Gods will

face Of the plottings Of man.
What a grand thing II ls to
see an old nan whose strength
and inspiration Is the Lord.
What have we after all to lean on
but cod7 As earth Is slipping
out from under our feet how
blessed II ls to feel and know
that the eternal purposes Of God
are still to be wrought out in
the world.
In this incident Of Adonijah's
graspIng for the kingdom and
the final triumphant coronation
Of the young man Solomon we
have prefigurement Of the uI-
Innate triumph and coronation
Of Christ the King Of kings and
Lord Of lords. The world would
put self upon the throne, but
God has other plans and in the
fullness Of time "Jesus shall
reign where'er the sun doth
his successive journeys run.v
Nothing can thwart the prom
lses that were made to the
Son when in the beginning
he offered himself as the worlds
Redeemer, and nothing can in.
terfere with the glorious fuI.
fillment Of the Divine will.
As the youth Of Solomon in
many ways prefigured the youth
Of the Christ, so in his trium-
plant coming to the kingdom and
his glorious reign we find a hint
or suggestion Of the coming alo-
rious reign Of the Christ.
And he (Aconljah) came
and bowed himself to King Sol.
omon." This outward act of
reverence and submission 10 the
newly-crowned king reminds US
Of the Scripture which saith:
Every knee shall bow to me
and every tongue shall confess
to God" However rebeIlious
and wicked the heart may be,
there Is coming the time when
every knee must bow and every
tongue confess to God. Christ
has not yet come into his own,
but the day ls coming when as
King he shall take possession Of
the Kingdoms Of the world, and
then many a knee which has
refused to bow TO his rule will
be forced to recognize his power
and authority and be brought
low before him.

Malvina.
In his courtly sympathy Col. Wilds

fact that as the thicker veins Of coal
become exhausted 1t is necessary to
work the thinner veins and the ir-
regular seams. This means greater
danger, and the scarcity of lumber
means that props will be more ex-
pensive and the tendency will be to
use smaller number of them. The
miners are VIGOROUSLY careless, and
many of the owners and foremen
must be closely watched in order
that the lives of those who are
working below may be safeguarded.
The government has chance to do
q most important work in this line.
The pitiful scenes enacted in min
