duce anything quite as startling as
the row in the Manoa precinct in
Honolulu, the precinct at Kukuiha-
Gle, the twelfth, seems to have been
able to stir up a little excitement
of its own.
Last week Hilo was RECALLED with
report to the effect that there
were two Republican precinct clubs
in that precinct, and that each one
Of these had nominated set of del
egatcs to the territorial and to the
county conventions, with the inevi-
table result that two delegations
, from the same precinct would ar
rive ut each convention. This
caused some excitement, but no de-
tai of uhe matter were learned
before the following letter OF expla-
nation was received from the presi-
dent of the precinct club by Chair
man of the County Committee
Beers:
"HOnokaa, Hawaii, Aug. 20, 1910.
"Wm. II. Beers, ESQ.,. lIiio, Hawaii.
My Dear Sir:--Just few words
to write TO you in regard to what
Is now happening among our club
members.
"On the night of the 2Gth inst.
u meeting of our club was held at
NuRuihaclc cchoolhouse, and made
nominations for delegates to the
Territorial and district and county
! conventions: when | was told that
some of the members were notified
Of no meeting that night, for rca
sons could not understand This
rumor for postpOncment prevented II
good many from attending. Any
way, l held the meeting and made
nominations with few attendance,
about eight in number.
ON the following night, MIR. VIM.
Homer and his crowd held their
meeting; whether they organized a
new club can not tell you for sure
at present; but one thing can tell
! you for sure, that they made nomi'
nations for delegates of their own

! place as ours.
There shall be some confusion
when that time comes am afraid.
II have heard that new roll
book has been sent to Mr. Horner
for registration of those who wish
/ to become members of the club.

along.
My intention IN this: as both
parties will vote for their delegates
at the same time and place. | will
have my judges of election ready at
the polling place and be ready ia
receive those who have already reg
istered in our old roll book; other,
wise their votes will be thrown out.
Or, II they vote for different dele
gates than those who were noml-
mated at our meeting by MS, we will
| reject their ballots.
AT the opening of our meeting on
the Goth, our roll book was opened
mp to the close of our meeting. But
/ in order to meet with the require
ments of our rules and regulations,
! advised our secretary to keep 1t
open accordingly! Up to the pres

II am of the idea that no more
registrations are allowed until the
election of delegates will be over.
What shall | do In this case? Al

ulations OF the Republican party as
far as our club work is concerned,
