SECRET BALLOT IN
THE CONVENTION
CONTINUED from Page One }

tainty in contest like this, but | am
perfectly satisfied with the outlook"
Lane supporters are hustling with
the utmost vigor, but they have not
rallied support enough yet to make
Lane specially confident. The Lucas
partisans claim more than Lane, some
of them even declaring that the victory
on the first ballot is sure, but few poll
ticians who are in touch with the sit
uation pay attention to this claim.
For the Senate the Republicans are
concentrating on E. w. Quinn and John
Hughes. both former members OF the
House, in the Fourth district Jimmie
BOYD is out for a nomination, but it
is recognized that he would greatly
weaken the ticket. Hughes and Quinn
are both tried men, and both popular
and ought easily to get nominations.
For the third member of the ticket
there does not seem to be any very de-
finite fight.
For the House from the Fourth dis
trict r. w. Single appears to be
certainty. j. c. Cohen is a new can
didate, who came into the field yester-
day and is getting lots Of support
e. A. C. Long, A. ID Castro and j. X.
lKamanoulu are other men who have
much backing in the district. Douthirt
also will be before the convention with
a very good chance of nomination.
The candidates in the Fifth are
much more backward in coming out.
For supervisors here W. Paikuli and
Pahia Maielua are named, but there
will be other aspirants. Eva leaders
demand that one member of the board
be from their end, and will fight for
representation ON the board
Walter Dillingham; has stated that
he is going away before the end OF
the year and will not be a candidate
for supervisor. Dan Logan appears TO
have a very strong support for sup
ervisor, and his nomination looks very
certain now. j. c. Quinn, A. II. X.

two. .p34 $50.

TO VISIT
FAR EAST

Mr. and Mrs. Albert Warehouse will
leave for Singapore and other points
in the Far East by the steamer Mon
golia on Monday next. They will be
absent for three months.
Mr. Warehouse goes to make an in
spection of the Waterhouse brothers
interests in two large rubber planta-
lions in the Malay States. One of
these is the Tanjong Olok Rubber
Plantation and the other the estate OF
the Pahang Rubber Company Devel-
opment of both of these plantations is
completed and tree planting Is pro-
ceeding favorably. Each has 1000 acres
of land cleared with planting thereon
In progress. The Oldest trees will be
two years in the ground next month,
covering 100 acres on each plantation.
These 200 acres of trees will be ready
for tapping in three years.
Photographs have been received at
the Office of The Waterhouse Co, Ltd,
Judd building, which give panoramic
views of miles of the ground cleared
and being planted. The rows of
seedlings come out quite clear in the
pictures. In the background are for
.est-clad mountains. The tout ensem-
bic indicates a splendid growing coun-
try.

SCHEME

The trial of the suit in condemna-
ton proceedings of the United States
VS.. Lorrin Andrews is still going on
before a jury in Judge Dole's court
and some interesting testimony is being
brought out. 1t is expected that the
case will be ended today and the many
witnesses from Hilo will be allowed to
return to their homes.
The most sensational part of the tes-
timony has come from the defendant
Lorrin Andrews when on the stand
and being examined by U. S. District
Attorney Breckons. He stated under
oath that while he was sheriff of Ha-
waii he used convict labor on the
ground in question which is leased
from the Waiakea Mill, to build roads
and to make other improvements, for
which the Territory never received a
cent. When questioned more closely
on the matter he stated that seventy
five per cent of the improvement work
had been done in this manner by con-
vict labor.
A laugh was created in the court
room when Andrews was being exa-
mined in regard to certain estimates on
which he bases his claim for getting a
high price from the government for his
land which is needed for right of way
to the breaIwater. The following con-
versation took place.
Breckons: Il can't see it."
Andrews: you can't see It? I may
be damned fool, Breckons. Well
admit the latter proposition"
Then the jurors, the attorneys and
the judge himself were forced to en-
joy the situation for few moments.

WHERE ARE YOU IN THIS list?

Wow! Anne Marie Prescott has
taken to classifying the citizens of
Honolulu and listing their names ac-
cording to where she thinks they stand,
class A or class Band the list is
what sporting editors would call a
peach. Worse still, she declares that
she could classify the women,-so look
out for trouble. The classification be-
gan with this months issue of the
Honolulu Times, wherein appears the

culated to shake the community to its

THE NEW WOMAN
IN TURKEY

In the recent rejoicings at the pro-
clamation of constitution in Turkey
many Turkish women took part. and
for the first time in history appeared
in public without their wells.
They have appealed to the Young
Turk party to abolish the harem sys-
TEN, and with it the compulsory yelling
of women. The word harem is Arabic
for anything forbidden or not to be
touched as against the rules of the
Koran. Games of chance, witchcraft
and portrait making are "harem."
In practice the word is used by Eu-
ropeans to designate that portion of a
polygamist's house which is devoted to
the exclusive occupancy of his wives
and their attendants. Thence it comes
to refer to the female portion of his
household, while the word may be used
by Westerners TO designate the system
Of plurality of wives.
In Turkey the system has been MAIN
tanned not only as a part of the Mos
lem religion, but as an integral part of
Mohammedan policy, of which the Sui
tan is the chief spiritual head, to whom
all orthodox Mussulmans look up and
to whom, as the appointer of Sheikh-
ul-Islam, all religious questions may
be finally referred.
Whether the Sultans will follow the
lead of their subjects in this matter is
very doubtful. The harem system is
so interviewer with court life and gov
eminent of a Mohammedan ruler that
it would take strong man to break
through the rule, even if he desired to
do so.
The etiquette of the harem of the
Sultan of Turkey, like that of most
Moslem potentates, is very severe and
is strictly carried out. Each wife has
her own suit of apartments, her own
bathroom and garden, and her own
body of servants, male and female. The
wives are not called by their names,
but are distinguished as Kadin Tor
LADY, No. / and so on.
The title of Sultana is given only to
the mother, sister or daughter of Sui
tan, consequently it is the Kadin who
first gives birth to an heir to the
throne who can have this distinction.
Should an odalisk, or female slave OF
the harem,' become the mother Of her
lords first born son, then she becomes
the reigning Sultana. Even then she
has little iGhuence, this being welded
alone by the, Sultans mothers the Sui
tana Valide, who controls the harem
and exercises considerable inhuencein
all court and many governmental mat
ters.-Town and Country. \
