He was halfway back to the south

The Election and It's Significance

The Election and It's Significance.
The State Democratic primary
election which ended Tuesday night
at 7 O'clock was remarkable in many
respects.
There were extraordinary claims
by tn" partlsans of tn" candidates
for tn" office of governor and for
III" United States senate.
With som" exceptions local candi-
dates Wrr" ovrrsIladoW"d by tn"
l"agrrn"S, and the interest CENTER
ed in tn" contest for governor.
As indicated by the results, Mich
81 has failed TO secure the majority
ne had expected in New Orleans.
Instead Of being about fifteen
thousand it approXmatrS eight
thousand, while Hall has exceeded
the eStimar of his frirnt% by sew
eraI thousands.
In the face of these facts, Gan
ddate Michel who must contest
with Judge Hall in th. second pri-
mary on February -. is already a
defeated man.
And there o. . gcasOn which is
plain.
As Judge Han 10 leading Michel
in the State and with the votes

friends of Aswell and the votes he
will receive from hundreds if not
Thousands of the supporters of San
dcrs who were aligned with Michel
Sanders friends will be justified in
resenting his betrayal by thousands
IOf the Michel men in New Orleans
who voted against him as candi-
date or the UIHted States Senate.
And there are hundreds 10 moi
thousands who not being oScE bur
dcnrd with principles. align as a
rule on the side which is the strong
est. All these will desert %swell.
On brief with Michel defeated and
with Hall as governor there will
come the redemption Of !h" state
from the rule of BOssism.
4 There will follow a new departure
in politics. There will b" retired
the Icrchrs and barnacl"s which
have been feeding from the public
crib for years. The Bosses who
have dominated New Orleans anC
who were striving to fasten their
grip on the State will be compelled
to obtain their living as other men
who must toll for their earnings.
With Hall as governor the State
will be rcgenerated and the rule of
true Democracy will be restored to
all the people.
The defeat Of Candidate Michel is
not altOgethr personal. He is the
representative of political system
which is OdiOus to all men who have
tired of machine ring boss rule.
There should be great rejoicing
over the destruction of this Boss
rule machine.
The political Bosses have been ir
power so long that they have grown
insolcnt in their defiance. but the
end has come and the people, pat
lent and conservative have risen
in their power and have determined
TO be free.
But the contest must be pushed
with vigOr. All the voters who favor
a government by the people, for the
EpeOple must renew their activity
their zeal and their determination
to annihilate beyond the possibility
of redemption the political machine
at the second primary on Tuesday
February q.

Governor Sanders Defiance

One of the many mistakes of Gov
ernor Sanders politically, the great
est is his edict, issued on Monday,
the day preceding the election.
In this edict, wherein he discredits
the ruling of the Attorney General
of the Stae and of the district at
torney of Orleans, he invited the
preparation of perjury and of fraud
on the part Of partisans who while
capable of preparing their ballots
would call on a commissioner or
clerk of the election to assist them
in making out their ballot.
tt is assumed that Governor San
ders was instigated to this extraor-
binary action through the persist
ance of some of the Bosses. who an
ticipated the reapiEg OF results from
purchasable voters, but this edict
was received with disapproval by all
good citizens who would uphold law
and order. It is computed that he
lost thousands of votes throughout
the State from this unwaranted and
unnecessary dictation, this defiance
of the law as expounded by the At
Itorney- General and the district at
torney of the parish of Orleans.
Senator Foster Defeated.
If Senator Foster is defeated, as
is indicated by the returns of the
election, there viii be greater cause
for rejoicing than in the shedding of
tears.
In a political serse. as summarize
ed from his record, he is as good
a Republican as Payne and Aldrich
Besides he has been aligned with the
political machine in New Orleans
since he became governor Of the
State.
Senator Foster is credited as be-
ing the greatest political schemeI
! in Louisiana and as being practi-
cally the brain of the Boss ring rule
of New Orleans.
The time has come when the
whole people should rejoice in the
retirement from public life of meI
such as Foster and others who have
profited from the system of Bossisn

WILLlS-WILLIAMS
Fight At HILO
This week
Lightweight Championship of
the Islands Will Be Decided

keenly Anticipating the Min

Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
.HILO, Aug. 5.-Both Jockey Willis
and Barney Williams are feeling good
for their fight next Saturday night
when they will battle for the light
weight championship of the Islands.
The scrap will come off at the Arm
DRY, starting at eight O'Clock, and it
should be great fight.
Willis is well known to all the Hilo
fans, and can always be depended on
to put up q good showing. He is
quick on his feet and knows how to
use his hands. He also has a habit
OF making things uncomfortably warm
for many of his opponents.
Williams, although not known to the
fans here, comes with clippings and
photographs of himself from the New
York and San Francisco papers that
show he is some class. He has been
sparring partner for Freddie Welsh on
more than one occasion, and has
bumped up against several good boys
on the mainland. *
Besides this, he has won the anna
teur championship of New York, and
1t Is the opinion of the fans who have
seen Wits In the ring, and who have
also seen Williams at work, that the
Jockey will have hard time to win
out in this fight.
The greatest interest is being taken
In the fight round town and large
crowd Is expected at the armory.
The preliminary between All Fook
and Joe Sylvester is practically guar
anteed as being good. This will make
the third time the boys have met and
as the verdict has been draw on
each OF the other occasions there IA
certain to be something doing before
the final gong rings on Saturday
night. Both boys are training hard
and as Sylvester has joined Williams
camp he will more than probably step
into the ring with some new wrinkles
that viii make Il mighty hard for An
Fook 70 set the better OF him. !.
Plug Milne, the wen known preli-
min4ry scrapper Of Honolulu, will
open the proceedings with Manuel
Richardson of Hilo and this 60 should
be one that will get the fans well
warmed up for what is to come later,
