Based on these facts. the scientist
succeeded In making some luminous
photographs for bis own amusement.
First. he colored some salt under
the cathode rays: then he proceed.
I'd 70 make . Photographic plate OF
the salt The easiest way to do this
was to spread some OF the colored
salt ON . giass plate. then place over

would stay In positlon. Thus be had

A photograph was taken IN the or
binary way. with q short time ex
posture. The daylight striking the
plate faded out the color from the
salt wherever II struck the plate. and
In place Of the color left a luminous
effect This was the luminous pho
tograph.
BY careful selection Of all mate
rails the scientist succeeded In max
ing photographs that gave nne
phosphorescent picture when viewed
In the dark: and the pictures prov

induce some Republican nominees at
the charter election next Tuesday TO

if the Republican party was consider

reports received yesterday, is that
where the Republican candid 2tes out
number the Democratic nominees
some of the Republicans should with
draw from the race. For example. in
the eighth precinct of the fourth dis

ed. A. V. Peters, Charles }. Lund and
Lorrin Andrews, chairman of the Ter
ritorial Republican Central committee,
are the Republican nominees, and
Jesse Uluihi is the Democratic candi-
date.
If the plan proposed is to be carried
through, then it would be up to one
of the Republican candidates in this
precinct to withdraw. If the orders
came from the territorial committee,
then it would be expected that An
drews would be the one to withdraw,
setting a good example for the Repub-
Leans in the other precincts. At the
non-partisan meeting in this precinct,
Peters, Andrews and Uluihi were
nominated, Lund filing Independently.
In the first precinct of the fourth
district three Republicans are running,
while two Democrats are running
either independently or as the candi-
dates selected at Democratic char.
ter election meeting in that precinct.
Three Republicans are the candidates
Of the third precinct of the fourth
district, and Francis J. Green is the
fourth candidate. He is Progressive,
and three delegates are to be select
ed. In the twelfth precinct of the
same district, three Republicans OPP
pose three Democrats. :*''
In the sixth precinct of the fifth dis
trict, Fred Meyer withdrew from the
race when he failed to receive the
nomination at the precinct meeting
after he had filed. In this precinct
j. K. Kupau, Republican, and H. P.
X. Malulani, a Home Ruler, are the
candidates and only one is to be elect
ed. Four other members of the Home
Rule PARTY are in the charter race.
