for common good.
The Democrats are better organized.
They are working together for the sue.
cess OF their party. There is no ap-
parent discord In the party, except
perhaps slight differences. which they
themselves are able to remedy.
The Home Rulers are watching the
political game with a great deal OF In.
terest. They seem to think that II the
Republicans do not harmonize their
differences pretty soon, they will be
able to influence certain number OF
the Republicans to join their party.
The Labor party, on the big island
seems to be dead.
According the to the general opin-
ion Of the Hawaiian voters on Hawaii,
1t is quite possible that r. X. Lalakea,
the county treasurer, and G. X. Nc.
CURE, the auditor, are certain OF their
reelection, provided, however, they re-
ceive the nomination OF their parties.
w. II. Beers, the county attorney,
John K Kai, the clerk, Sam Pua, the
sheriff, are somewhat uncertain about
succeeding themselves. At least, the
voters say so.
Republican candidates are expert
encing some pilikia through discord
between themselves and their sup
porters.
Some of the old politicians claim
that the young ones lack proper
judgment in political matters. Owing
TO these differences, the Republican
workers are divided and harmony will
not prevail until some political guild
ing hand takes the helm.
The Democrats, with David Ewaliko
the shining light, are holding their
ground solidly. They have held nu.
merous meetings at which their future
prospects politically are brighter to-
day than they were n few months ago.

they are waiting for action. One OF
the staunch Democrats, ami a leader
OF his party in Kona who did not want
his name mentioned said that he
would give his support for the cles.
