consented to run on condition that no
white man could be secured as a candi-
date. However, he did not want to
accept the nomination and resign his
position where he made hundred and
fifty dollars month, and dispose of all
his business in which he made $3.50
month, unless the convention was unan-
imously for him and every delegate
would get out and work for him.
Fern s speech aroused much enthu-
siasm and all other nomination being
withdrawn, his name will be presented
to the convention as the unanimous
choice of the caucus.
The Other Aspirants.
The nomination of William Paul Jar
rett for sheriff, Trent for treasurer,
George K Lowe for county clerk were
quickly made and without opposing
candidates. For County Auditor, Fred
Turrill, J. C. Anderson and R. w. Cath
cart were named and Chairman Nc
Carthy kept up the era of good feeling
by ruling that as the delegates were
not bound by the action of the caucus
there would be no vote taken on any
offices.
For County Attorney E. NJ. Watson
and W. w. Thayer were nominated and
each asked leave to withdraw his name
on the ground that his situation was
such that he could not afford to accept
the office c. w. Ashford was nominted
and took the opportunity in declining
to make a warm speech secondlng the
nomination of Judge W. S. Edings. Wat
son made a speech to the same purpose,
and Fern made a warm speech IN
Edings behalf, especially addressed to
the Hawaiian delegates.
Charles Rose was the only nominee
for deputy sheriff. Emmeluth moved
that as the Fifth District had the can
didate for mayor it be given three SUI
pervisors while the fourth be given
four. This carried.
Nominations for supervisors, and for
representatives were quickly made and
the caucus adjourned, Fern urging all
delegates to come to the convention
sober and not disgrace themselves as
some delegates in the Republican con-
vention had done.
