BALLOTS
THAT co
SUPREME COURT GIVES AN IN
TEREST RULING IN THE KAUAI
ELECTION CONTEST.

The written decision of the Supreme
Court in the election contest case OF
Charles Blake against George e. II.
Baker, for the authorship of Kauai,
in which the vote was found to be a
tie, was handed down in the Supreme
Court on Saturday. The decision CIV
es the rulings of, the court on two
interesting matters, the first of these
being to the effect that:
"a petition in an election contest
alleging that a certain number of bal
lots cast for the petitioner were not
counted for him by the inspectors,
and failing to allege that all the bal
lots were in the same condition as
when cast, is sufficient on demurrer. ="
The second is in relation to the
validity of certain ballots. In this
regard the court says:
In the main the rulings of ma
iority of the court upon the validity
of ballots followed those announced
in Brown V. Iaukea, Is Haw. 131;
Cornwell V. Kaiue, IS Haw. 167, and
Holstein v Young, 10 Haw. PIG. In
accordance with the rulings in those
cases the following classes Of bal
lots were held valid: where the cross
es were imperfectly formed or the
lines of the cross duplicated; where
there was a small hole at the lower
end of one of the lines of the cross,
evidently the result of an accident;
where short pencil marks appeared OPP
was small puncture at the end or
/ the crosses and as to one ballot on
one side of a cross; where an erasure
/ of a cross, although still discernible
on close examination had been made;
where there were dotted pencil marks
at the end of each line of a cross;
where a ballot was torn at the TOP;
and the following were held to be in
valid; where a cross in an improper
place was partly erased but still re-
manned perfectly clear; where a name
of some one other than that of can
didate appeared in pencil on the top
of ballot; where crosses appeared
outside of the space provided for that
purpose. One ballot where the inter-
| section of the cross was exactly upon
the line between the marking spaces
provided for two candidates for sher-
III was held by a majority of the court
to be valid for all purposes and that
it should have been counted for the
upper candidate. One ballot on which
the arms of one cross were unusually
heavy was held to be valid by a ma
jority of the court.
