one, and he answered that he felt sure
that II was. as DOuthitt. when he left
for Shanghai, had announced that he
intended to remain there, and as n
consequence he would have to stay in
Hawaii for two years after his return
before he could qualify as n voter.
McGurn Thrown Out
A somewhat similar point was raised
against Albert McGurn, one of the
candidates for the Office of deputy
sheriff on the Republican ticket, when
he was this morning turned down by
the Board of Regis ration on the
grounds that he had been living on
Maui for fourteen months, and had
not been in the County of Oahu for the
ninety days preceding the election pre-.
scribed by law. This leaves McGurn
out Of the race. much to his disgust.

dignantly this morning when he was
asked II the report of his backing out
was true, Il ans going to run, and

Both on the Fence
Among those who are uncertain as
to whether they will run for the House
or the Senate are Quinn and Kalciopu
Quinn stated today taht the announce
ment that he had made up his mind
was utterly untrue. He could not say
us yet what he would do. Kaleiopu Is
being urged by some of his friends Il
run for the Senate. but he himself l:
said to prefer the House, where he ex
lpects the most strenuous battles o.
the Legislature will be fought
Ell Crawford Is said to be wishing
for nomination for the House, bu
that eminent statesman will not sa!
anything about the matter.
Shingle for Treasurer
II. W. Shingle is having many hon
ors thrust upon him, but has not de
cided what he win do. While he wal
urged to run for the House some tim'
ago, a number of his friends have nov
asked him to run against Trent fo
County Treasurer, and the Morgan
precinct has passed resolution en-
dorsing him for that position. II Il
conceded that it would take yer.
strong nan to defeat Trent. and Thu
Republican leaders are inclined Il
think that Single is just that man.
Wanted for Chairman
Shingle Is also being much Spoken
of as chairman of the County Com
mittee. but he Is unwilling to sa!
anything about this matter at thu

whether an outsider can be elected TO
that Office has arisen in his case
Most of the authorities believe that h
will be ineligible for this reason.
