TO MAKE IT NATIONAL.
Treasurer Sheldon Will Be Guided by
New York Publicity Law.

New York, July 10.-'I have always
believed in publicity with respect to
campaign expenditures" said George
r. Sheldon. the new treasurer of the
Republican national committee. before
leaving for Hot Springs to confer with
Mr. Taft. He added:
I'm the approaching campaign I will
be guided solely by the publicity law
In Mr.. Shelden's opinion publicity at
this time will do good in dispelling ex-
aggerated ideas on this subject. "Of
course he said. there are objections
on the part of many givers to having
their names published. The reason is
that they Immediately become a tar
get For the same reason that many
large donors to charitable objects are
unwilling that their gifts should be
known to the public. / am not alarm
ed over the outlook for raising money
for our expenses in the coming cam
paign. They told me 1 could not raise
money for the Hughes campaign, but
did. I got all we needed"

After scene in court which might
well be styled a comedy of errors, the
Supreme Court this afternoon declar-
ed the contest between George Baker
and Charles Blake for the Office of
auditor of Kauai to be a tie, each con-
testant receiving AIS votes. A new
election will be held.
The case was continued yesterday
afternoon till ten o'clock this morning
for a decision on the motion of Blake's
attorneys that they be allowed to sub
poena the election inspectors of one
precinct. Instead of taking this mat
ter up in open court the justices re-
tired to chambers and recounted all
the ballots. Decisions were made in
three cases, one of which was in favor
of Baker and two in favor of Blake
When the court met at 2 o'clock
Chief Justice Hartwell announced that
one ballot was very heavily marked
for one candidate, and the court was
in doubt whether to count it or not.

PIPE IS ORDERED
FOR .KALIHI PARK

Superintendent of Public Works
Marston Campoell has ordered the
pipe which will be needed for irri-
CATION purposes at the new Kalihi
Park. For several months past the
gang of prisoners which High Sheriff
Henry has had at work has been put
ting the park in condition and two
months ago had the trenches dug for
the pipe but there was none forth
coming.
Now Campbell has taken the matter
up and will see that the work is COM
pleted. He has obtained $50 towards
the needed money from a fund raised
some time ago and which is in the
custody of A. L. C. Atkinson. The
other money needed will come from
the department funds.

ISBELL TO MANAGE
HAWAIIAN WIRELESS.
NEGOTIATIONS A. BALCH WHO HAS HEARD THE
CALL OF THE MINEs-wIREIEss COAST TO
SETTLE AFFAIRS PREPARATo RY TO TAKING CHARGE HERE
WILL HANDLE AUTOMATIC TELEPHONES

There is pending change of man
and Telephone Company, formerly the
Wireless Telegraph Company, a change
that will be regretted because of the
going out of Manager j. A. Balch and
change that will be welcome, since
Balch has decided to seek other fields
of usefulness, in that Arthur A Isbell
Wireless Wizard, is to take charge OF
the system, system that will some
day embrace all the Pacific, if present
signs materialize.
1t was the intention of the controll-
ing interests not to announce this
change, but the information comes
through one who is to some extent in
terested in wireless stock and one who,
while he is consoled by the fact that
none other than Isbell Is to take
charge, deeply regrets the contemplated
departure of the present manager, j..
A. Balch, from these islands and from
the management which he has so well
conducted.
Isbell, he who installed the more
than successful long-distance wireless
station at Kahuku, this island, left
here in the steamship Claudine last
Friday and took the S, S. Lurline from
Kahului the following afternoon for
San Francisco
Isbell it is reported, went to the
coast to close up his business affairs
there and to prepare to return to Ha.
waii to take full charge of the Hawa;-
ian Telegraph and Telephone Company
upon the retirement of j. A. Bach.
Balch is financially interested in the
local wireless system and is, 1t is said,
now awaiting the closing of a deal by
which his stock is to be purchased
Wireless stock has doomed since the
inception of the system in these ISL
ands, and, necessarily, there is more
or less delay in reaching an under
standing as to the price to be paid
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-12-24

Balch is mining engineer and has
hattering offers from a Nevada min
ing syndicate to manage large inter
ests there. He feels again the call
of the mines and, as much as he dis
likes to leave his host Of Honolulu
friends, feels that fortune awaits him
on the mainland.
At any time the deal which buys out
Balch is likely to be consummated. 1t
is understood that Berry, the banker
who came here some weeks ago with
President Clinton j. Hutchins, of the
Hawaiian Telegraph and Telephone
Company, is the man who is negotiat-
ing for Balch's stock.
When Isbell returns from the coast
he will in all probability be accom-
panied by Chief Electrician Hanscom
of the Mare Island Navy Yard who
will come to survey for Naval wire
less stations in these islands.
Isbell may buy into the company,
but in any event he will assume the
management Ol lue WlTtlcSS III NueSt
islands and of the automatic telephone
system which is to be installed on
Oahu by the same company.
With the automatic telephone it will
be a simple matter for anybody on this
island TO ring up wireless headquar-
ters and send a wireless to any point
on the mainland coast or to any ship
in reach, and to receive messages from
friends on other shores and afloat.
Balch's management of the wireless
has been historical not only in these
islands but in the world, for it was
under. his regime that Oahu reached
out and talked with the world and II
is owing largely to his careful and
energetic enterprise that the genius of
Isbell had opportunity Of expression.
As previously reported, Hutchins, as
president has many wireless schemes
in view which someday may embrace
the South Seas

After three hours deliberation the
jury in the suit of Carl Waldeyer VS..
the Wailuku Sugar Company, which
has been tried before Judge Kepoikai
in Wailuku, a verdict for the defen-
dant was brought in last night. The
suit was for $35,379S in 6damages for
alleged breach of contract.
The trial of the case commenced on
November 20, and has continued with
out pause ever since. The firm of
Kinney, Prosser & Anderson repre-
sented the defendant and Judge Quarles
and ]. Lightfoot the plaintiff. w. A.
Kinney has spent his entire time on
the case in a most painstaking man
ner, the thoroughness with which he
has examined every detail being shown
by the fact that he spent nine days in
the cross-examination of Waldeyer
alone.
The suit arose through alleged
breach of contract on the part Of the
Wailuku Sugar Company, who Wal

REOPEN CONTEST FOR MAYOR
New Election For
Kauai Auditor

He refused to say for whom it was
but asked for argument by the attor-
neys on their views of the matter
Peters and Davis held that the ballot
should be counted and Watson and
Thayer that it should be rejected. The
vote, after a short recess, was decided
on as valid and then the attorneys
found that each side had argued
against it's own client. Naturally
mere was laughter
The court decided that the costs of
the recount should be equally divided
between the two contestants and ad-
jorned after being wished a Merry
Christmas in the name of the local bar
