An evening paper quotes w. o.

error in judgment has been displayed
by the Judge. There is nothing dis

the size of it and about all one can

PROCLAMATION

ritory between the proposed new first
precinct and Punahou street extended
to the sea and to the mountain.
The people of the Waialee and Pu-
pukea region ask for the formation of
an election precinct in their region. At
present they are a part of precinct
that includes the greater part of Koo-
laupoko. The polling place is at Ha-
uula, and some of the Pupukea people
have to go thirteen miles to vote. While
they do not urge that thirteen is AN
unlucky number, they do urge that
thirteen miles is a long way TO go to
vote and that as there are upwards
of thirty voters in that region all Of
whom have to 60 eight or nine miles,
it is impossible for all of them to leave
the region on the same day. 1t is sug-
gested that the polling place be located
at Waialee, which, though it is not
the center of the district is accessi-
BILE, and is perhaps the only place
where a room for a polling place could
be provided. As an alternative to
this request the suggestion has been
made that the polling place of the
pI6Stub pIcciuCb US CAldHStu tfoh la
uula to Kahuku, which would be near
er the center of the precinct as it is
now constituted.
Another petition asks for a change
of polling place from one house at Ka-
alaea, Koolaupoko, to another house.
From Maui a petition has been re-
ceived asking for the establishment of
new precinct of the region between
Wailuku and Maalae Bay with a poll
ing place at the Waikapu school house.
These voters now go TO Waikiki court
house to vote. but it is a long way
and few of them have horses and q
voting place nearer is desired.
The voters of Ukumehame and Olo-
walu have asked that these two dis
triets be created a new precinct with
polling place at Olowaiu. At pres
ent the polling place for these voters
is at Lahaina which is six or eight
miles away. 1t is stated in the petit
ton that many of the voters have no
means of getting to the polling place
except by the assistance of someone
else, and that as matter of fact the
only assistance available is "interest-
ed assistance, so that a free and un-
trammelled vote is impossible.
The people of Makawao and of kau-
pakalua want to be erected into a
new precinct AS it is now some of
them have to go six or seven mites
southwark to vote, and others six or
seven miles northward.
On all these requests Governor F'reaR
would be very glad to receive sug-
gestiOns.
