SMILES OVER GovERNORSHIP
fFrom saturday,g Advertiser.l

Washington in about three weeks, al
though he may not be present at the
opening of congress.
The Prince is still little doubtful
about the vote of the fourth district
for Lane The morning after election
he said some hard things about the
haoles of that district, and particularly
of certain precincts, having thrown
Lane down. When asked yesterday if
he had gone over the figures to see
whether he was justified in his state
ments, Delegate Kuhio said he oouldn It
see yet how the figures could be con-
strued differently, yet he was not quite
so certain as he was on that date. From
what the Prince says on this matter, he
spoke on that morning before a COM
plete ANALYSIS of the votes had been
made, and was of the belief then that
it was haole votes which hod thrown
down the mayoralty candidate of the
Republican party Yesterday the Prince
was. not so assertive about the matter,
but still Is inclined to believe the haole
vote had something to do with the ele-
walton OF dropping of certain candl-
dates.
He referred to the case of Towse and
in himself in Towse's district, where
Towse had more votes than himself.
That makes him incline to the belief
as expressed on Wednesday.
However, the Prince is feeling gen.
orally very pleased, and he asked The
Advertiser to express his thanks to all
the voters who cast their ballots for
him and all those who worked for his
interests. He is still anxious to get
the full returns from Kau, where 9
fight was early made on him, and yet
when he visited the place he was re
ceived with every demonstration OF
loyalty.
Forget It." Says Davis.
Judge George A. Davis believes to-
much has been made of the statement
credited to the Delegate and Shingl
regarding their split-ticket remarks.
S'On the morning of the ninth
November Just after it had been learn
ed that John G. Lane, the Repubhcal
candidate for mayor, had been defeat
ed at the polls, Robert w. Shingle, cit
and county treasurer-elect, who wa
worn out and excited, started to max
a speech to the assembled Republlca
workers. said the Judge last night

! remember them, he said;
(" Fellow Republicans, we have jus
returned from the fourteenth precinc
of the fifth district, the last to be hear
from. and must concede Lane S defea

Lane, Mr.. Cox, jim Quinn and Mr.. )

You did your duty. | have not bee
able to make any analysis of the n
turns of the fourth district but from
eursory examination | think they sho
that Lane and some of the county cal
didates did not get the same suppoi
at the polls that the legislative tick'
received, but after all, boys, we haV
elected six Republican supervisors, an

the offices to be filled for the nel
biennial period and you are entitled

these supervisors will stand by you an

uMr. Shingle also said that /
wished to say in addition that he te
SO bad about the defeat of Lane thi
he would far sooner have lost his ow
election than that the head of the nun
cipal ticket should have gone down

party and the ticket,
''Shingle was much moved and vii
bly, affected, but | think that he d
not make the remarks which were a
tributed TO him as he knew at the tin
that the fourth district and especial
the haole districts had stood loyal
beside him in the fight and his gra
tude for that support had been c
pressed to me three or four times
referring to the different precincts

"The Delegate spoke in Hawaii
