NEXT DELEGATE
Party Leaders Predict He Will
Beat kuhio BY Substantial
Majority

A spirit of conservative confidence
peryades democratic political circles
today anent tomorrow's general cleo
ton. Everywhere II is predicted that
the 3ourbons will effect clean
sweep not only on Oahu but on the
outlying islands. l.. L. McCandless,
candidate for delegate. il is asserted,
viii poll a vote substantially stronger
than at past elections. His chances
of being sent to Washington, party
leaders declare, are better than ever
before.
Bryan Gives Expression
The Democratic county committee
feels every confidence that the party
will carry the county of Oahu with a
substantial majority for Mccandless,
says Chairman ". A. Bryan. This
also includes the senatorial and rep
resentative tickets. Reports from
precinct workers show that the former
Republican vote among the Hawaiians
is swinging to the Democratic Hist. Our
voters are satisfied with the ticket
selected at the primary and are pre-
pared TO vote ii straight The various
nationalities of voters are<pulling to-
getner in perfect harmony.
The island of Hawaii undoubtedly
will show the largest gains for Nc
Candless over the former votes of
that island and, together with the
large Democratic vote from Oahu and
Kauai will give our candidate for
delegate the desired majority through
cut the group"
Ambrose Wirtz, candidate for the
senate on the Bourbon ticket, thinks
that the Democratic candidates will
poll very large percentage of the
votes not only on Oahu but through
out the territory. Today he would
make no prediction regarding the vot-
ing on islands other than Oahu
McCandless Expects to Win
McCandless is confidentxof beating
Kuhio by substantial majority. He
said today:
Il feel that We will carry Oahu by
a large majority, and also Kauai. This
is not including Maui. Hawaii and Mo-
kai, but from reports received by
the central committee we are assured
that many men who have supported
kuhio in past elections have openly |
declared themselves in favor of me-
or course, the Republicans are |
everything in sight, as they |
always do-that we Will. only carry |
one precinct on this island, which, in /
our opinion. is like all the work TIE |
Republicans do, and have done in the |
past; that is to preYaricate This is /
a sample of it. We feel fully conf /
dent Of success, and we have stated I
SO, but this thing of telling the other
man that we haven't look-in is en-
.ireiy wrong and men who make those
statements should not have the sup
port of the people.

With the exception of few changes, /

SECRETARY DANIELS
ORDERS ANOTHER EXAM.
For Candidates for Midshipmen to
Enter Naval Academy.

Secretary Daniels has ordered an
other examination for entrance to the
Naval Academy this year, with a view
to taking advantage to the fullest ex-
tent practicable of the recent act of
Congress increasing the number of
midshipmen. and with the purpose OF
supplying the officers required for the
ships of the new buibling program at
as early a date as existing laws will
permit.
The examination is scheduled To take
place July 81 BY this means il is
hoped to secure about two hundred
more midsh!pmen for this years class.
This would mean that when this years
class graduates four years from now
the Navy will have at least 120 more
officers than would be the case if such
additional examination were not held
When the recent act was passed in
creasing the number of appointments
of each Senator and Member of the
House of Representatives from two to
three it was realized that little time
remained before the April examination
to permit Senators and Members of
the House Of Representatives to select
young men TO fill the vacancies ami at
the same time allow sufficient time for
the candidates to prepare for the en-
trance examination.
BY holding another examination il
July, advantage will be taken of the
new law to the fullest extent practi-
cable to accomplish its purpose of pro-
viding more officers for the Navy.

WRIGHT FOUND GUILTY
VIOLATEDELECT|ON LAW
Sample Ballots Proved Material
Aids in Picking Out Names
On Ballots.
OTHER CASES TRIED.
Alleged Bigamist Sentenced to Eighteen
Months in House Of Correction.

The use by Republican voters. par
ticularly among the colored popula-
ton, of sample ballots, which proved
very material aids in picking out the
names as placed on the official ballots
during the gubernatorial election last
fall occupied the time OF the Circuit
Court today. when Charles A. Wright
was found guilty of violating the e!ec
ton law in using a device which led to
his arrest in the polling house of the
Fourth ward, this city.
The State did not press for any se-
we're punishment of the accused. the
desire being more to establish TIE fact
that such sample ballot gotten OUT
with the candidates names arranged
Just as on the official ballot and spac-
ed like the official ticket, constitutes
violation of the election law.
Therefore. after adjudging the man
guilty, Judge Brashears suspended
sentence. 1t was felt that the Crgani
zatior or men who had the sample
ballot printed and distributed was real
~ more TO blame than the negroes to
whom it was issued to ahi them in
voting.
Other cases tried in the Circuit Court
during the past few days include:
William F.Husselbaueh,c charged with
bigamy in having married Addie Il.
Purdy on November %. when his first
wife, Mary E. Husselbaugh, was still
living. Plead guilty and sentenced to

rection.
