Confusions Explained.

Confusions Explained.
If the story upon which Chief Nc
Dufie is now working is true, many of
the most puzzling facts discovered after
Schooley's death are explained. In
the first place large sum of money
had been mysteriously connected with
Sehooley but the truth of this has not
been heard yet. It is almost certain,
however, that he was in possession of
considerable amount.
Among the scanty bits of informa-
ton that Deputy Sheriff Rose, who
handled the case, could discover relat-
ing to his movements on the evening
before he died, was one statement that
man seen in an automobile might
have been him. This auto was seen
going towards River street.
Most apparent now of all the clues
dug up before, however, is the fact that
the greatest mystery surrounding
Sehooley's death was the clothes in
which he was found. While they were
identified by several people as the
clothes worn by a man they had seen
about lower Hotel and River streets,
none of Schooley's friends could iden-
tifv them as his.
Lopes, about the time the murder,
if it was a murder, was committed, was
a chauffeur in charge of an automobile
belonging to Roger James, and accord.
ing to the story the girl says he told
her, he was driving it on the night in
question.
The only wound on the sergeant Is
body when it was picked out of the
stream was an abrasion on the back
of the skull, which might have been
caused either by blow or by fall
from the river embankment while
drunk. Formerly the police leaned to-
wards the latter theory. Now they re-
gard it as the index of cowardly
murder.

April H. 1t is expected that Cover

WATSON NOW
IN GOvERNORSH|P
supposing There Should Be a Big
Surprise and a Democrat
Were President?
By Ernest G. Walker.

(Mail Special to The Advertiser)
WASHINGTON, March a. These
are days for high Democratic gossip at
Washington and some of the lingering
Hawalians are getting into the game.
Suppose, for instance, there should be
a Democratic President after March 4,
next. There are lot of level head
ed men who think there will be Demo-
cratic President for four years from
March 4 next. What theni
Sooner or later the first Democratic
Governor of Hawaii Some of the Ha-
waiians tarrying here this winter are
Democrats and some, who have come
along for few days or a week or two
are Democrats. They have prIcked up
their ears at the talk about Demo
cratic President and heard the solons
say IN the quietude of calm conversa-
tion that apparently nothing can de-
feat Democratic nominee for next
November, with Taft and Roosevelt
fighting down to the last ditch.
But, anyhow, the word runs through
the ranks of the Hawaiian colony here
that Il. Nj. Watson would not be averse
to being the first Democratic Governor
of HAWAII. Somebody sprung the idea
upon Mr.. Watson the other day un-
awares. 81 would not have it under
any consideration, said Mr.. Watson
and then he bit his lip and looked as
though he wished he had not said that
Has Friends Galore.
And the word goes round that Wat,
son has Democratic friends here galore
and that he has been strengthening his
friendships here this winter during the
months of his residence in Washington.
He was formerly secretary to John
Sharp Williams and knows a lot of
Democrats who would be very infuen-
tial if the voting next November should
be their way. Certainly if Mr.. Wat
son should get busy on a gubernatorial
proposition with a Democratic admin
istration at Washington he could make
. Link McCandless and w. A. Kinney
stand around,
Republican Might Resgnl
President Taft, of course, must nomi.
nate a Governor for Hawaii before a
long time goes by and the nomination
is for four years. term. A President
can generally find way to make
territorial Governor resign, if he so
wishes. A Democratic President might
not like to have Republican Cover
nor of Hawaii commissioned for more
than three years into the term of his
administration. And yet he probably
would not interfere with Republican
Governor serving ont the term for which
he was commissioned. When the term
of the Governor of Hawaii expired,
however, the new man would be com.
missioned for another four years. Con-
sequently if there is to be Demoera-
tic administration, the Hawaiian Demo-
Gratis who talk about a Democratic
Governor of the Territory may be con-
siderably in advance, but the Office
would be good one all the same, when
the time came to I'LL it.

DAYS OF POLITICAL FAT.
FRYER ARE NUMBERED
About $4,000, 900 Spent By Both
Parties in Five Presidential
Campaigns.


Washington. Oct. 30.-With the
recess of the Clapp committee. which
has been investigating campaign
contributions although there are
many facts yet undisclosed. one
thing stands out clearly.
This is that the golden days Of
the political fat frier are over. The
fact stands revealed that vast and
apparently unnecessary sums have
been spent in political campaigns.
by means of the records left be-
hind by the late Cornelius N. Bliss.
who was treasurer of the Republican
national committee in the CAM
paisns of 1896, 1900 and 1904, the
expenditures by the committee III
t!osc years became definitely known.
and they aggregated $10.3SS,OOO. In
1908 the Republicans spent $1,655.-
600. bringing the grand total in five
campaigns to Sla,0i3,000.
.tdd to this the Democratic fig
ures for the same campaigns as dis
closed by the committee invcstiga-
tion, and the grand total for the two
parties will reach about $40, 200, 900
This does not include money spent in
the prc-convcntion contests of those
years.
