PARIS, KENTUCKY FRIDAY. OCTOBER s. 1905.
Democrats Jubilant.

The Democrats here are jubilant
over the result of Tuesdays registra-
ton, and the Republicans are down in
the mouth without word to say. The
Democrats plurality of 289, with 12O
Democrats yet to register, is the
blow that almost killed father" and
a. the same. time knocked out the talk
of opposition. After the special regis
tration days the Democrats will have
at least 400 majority and it is all nom
sense for anybody to say the Republi-
cans have ghost of chance to win.
The Republicans are realizing this
after studying the figures, and can
readily see it would be but foolishness
on their part to go up against figures
that don't lie, SO it is not all probable
that there will be opposition to the re-
cent Democratic nominees. The fol-
lowing are the correct figures, read
them and 1T will not take you long to
see that there is mo use'' to run up
against "buzz saw
The total Democratic plurality is
289, an increase of 134 over the year
1908. and 1875 over 1907. The total
registration shows: Democrats 889,
Republicans 609, Independent %. total
1880.
The supplemental registration will
increase these figures to a total of
/, 700 voters.
The tabulated report of registration
shows the Republicans got out their
full strength, while the Democrats
have about ITO yet to register, which
will increase their majority in the city
to about 400.

NAMING THE
PR|NCESSES HERE
KAUAI AND HAWAII BOTH FAIL TO
GET BUSY IN TIME FOR THE
FLORAL PARADE.

Kauai has fallen down on its Island
Princess. Hawaii has been too slow
in making up its mind. AS a result
both of these places will be filled as
advantageously as possible by the Flo
raj Parade Committee.
Chairman w. H. Mclnerny received
news from Kauai by this morning mail
In letter from Francis Gay, who il
had been understood had arranged for
a representative from the Garden isl
and, to the effect that owing to the
danger of injury to horse in shipping
1T by boat during the present rough
weather, he did not feel justified in at
tempting to ship an animal from Kauai
as a mount for the Kauai princess. Pre-
sumably some danger also holds true as
to the princess herself, for it is under
stood by the committee that Kauai does
not intend to take any further steps in
the matter.
A letter from Hawaii states that the
matter of appointing a princess to re-
present the island will be referred tt
the Hilo Board of Trade (sometime)
but when action could be expected, OF
whether any action at all would be
taken is problematical.
Since receiving the Hilo letter, Mr.
McInerny has named Miss Emma Rose
to hold up Hawaiis end in the parade,
but as yet he has not decided upon
a representative from Kauai.
At a meeting of the general commit
tee yesterday afternoon, it was decided
to ask that everyone who intends to
take part in the coming Floral Parade
in any manner, let the fact be known
just as soon as possible to one OF
the committees, or Director Petrie This
is so the committees may have some

SAILOR FALLS
OVERHEARD

The littye steamer Niihau, which
arrived this morning from Kihei, Maui,
lost a man overheard off Diamond
Head early this morning, but picked
him up after hurriedly launching boats
and scurrying around in the nearer
sea.
The sailor, a Japanese named Nj
shimura, had been sent forward to
look after the cattle, with which the
decks were crowded. While partially
on the railing and endeavoring to
force some of the cattle away, he was
pushed overheard Luckily other sail
ors saw him drop into the water and
gave the alarm. When the boats
reached the little fellow he was swim
ming bravely but was exceedingly t1r-
ed when dragged aboard.
The accident happened about 8
O'Clock this morning when the Niihau

idea as to what will have to be pro-
vided, how large procession will have
to be handled and in order that place
cards and numbers may be arranged
for and supplied.
The committee yesterday decided to
change the location of the final re-
viewing grounds from the Oahu Cam
pus to Kaplolani Park, deeming that
the College grounds will not be large
enough to take care of the big pro-
cession, these grounds having been tax
ed last year with much smaller crowd
than is expected this time.
The sum of $500 was appropriated for
the prizes and souvenirs to be given
and very handsome design for a
silver souvenir badge for the Hawai-
ian Princesses, submitted by Tom
Sharp, the chairman of the committee
on prizes, was also approved,

DENYMR.PAYNE'S STATEMENT
