candidates nomination papers were

Quoted the case for the state, referred
to the signers as political polyga'
mists" in the argument.
Just last week Mr.. f. B. DubiSSon
candidate for Attorney General was
compelled by law to withdraw from the
race OIL account OF it being violation
of the law for a candidate to run for
an Office in the Bull Moose party when
he had taken part in democratic prl-
mary. If we are correctly Informed
Mr.. 7. S. Plunket of Elton, a candidate
for Police Juror in Ward four, did the
same thing that Mr.. DubmiSSon had to
do.
And now allow us to advise our
democratic friends to steer clear of such
political plights as has befallen these

Parker'S Perfidy To Hall And League.

The Parker press takes great pains to
show that National Committeeman
Robert Ewing is a traitor to certain OF
his promises, but this is Of negligible
Importance in comparison with the poll.
tical perfidy shown by Mr.. John NJ.
Parker himself in his deSertion of Gov,
Hall and of the Good Government Lea
que cause, thereby causing the latter
the loss of its city fight following the
election of 1912, and permanently dis.
abling its organizing, says the West
FeliCiana True Democrat, warm sup
porter of Gov. Hall.
These are grave charges against Mr..
Parker'S SteadfaStness of character
and good faith that can never be salts.
faCtOrily answered, and must forever
raise doubt as to his fidelity in any
political enterprise.
What he did to Gov. Hall is alone Suf.
ficient to Offset any charges made
against a Democrat OF high or low de.
gree. Through his representations.
Judge Hall, newly elected to the bench
for term of eight years, relinQuished
this desirable position for the cover.
nOrShip. The arguments used by Mr..
Parker to induce Luther E. Hall to take
course so inimiCal to his pecuniary
interests, must have beenindeed strong
Gov. Hall has never divulged the
terms of the understanding that led him
to take the step, and being game loser
has never complained of the treatment
he received at the hands of MIR. Parker.
However it is known that Gov. Halls
campaign expenses were to be paid-it
was so understood by the Good Cover
nOrment League in general-but short
ly after the campaign Gov. Hall had
to put second mortgage on his home
to meet his campaign expenses. 1t is
not meant to intimate that Mr.. Parker
should have paid those exSenS9S from
his own purse, of course, but he should
have felt it a moral obligation to see
that Gov. Hall was reimbursed, through
a general appeal to, and subscription
by, league members. No appeal was
made, and after leading Gov. Hall into
this labyrinth Mr.. Parker hied mer-
rily away, leaving his ampaniOn with
no thread 10 guide him out OF the maze.
1t is therefore indicate to talk of
the perfidy of any one else when Mr..
Parker himself has shown that he was
unequal to the demands Of entire faith
fulneSS to the man and the faction to
whom he stood pledged.

LEADS WOMEN BOWLERS
Puts Across a Score of 26o in Duck
pin Singles at Camp Emery.
Mrs. Ackman Second.

The final rolIing-off of ladies' night
at Camp Emery occurred last night,
Mrs. George Iseman taking first place
in the duckpin singles with Mrs. Ack-
man and Miss Edna Eckhardt each
one pin in rear of the other. Mrs.
Iseman's score for the set was 26s.
Mrs. Ackman 26S and Miss Eckhardt
followed with a 267 set.
The much-disputed first position in
the candle pin singles was decided
last night when Miss Eckhardt re-
rolled her set of candles and was
ousted out OF first place. On wednes-
day night when the candles were roll
ed Miss Eckhardt through mistake
used the duckpin balls and when a
protest was made readily agreed to
reroll the set. Too much cannot be
said of the sportsmanship on Miss
Eckhardt's part and should the same
spirit prevail with the men in the flu
ture the game is bound to reach its
height. Practically all the scores in
the duckpin singles were punched
one pin separating the majority of
the contestants. The scores:

Tigers romped home with a victory
over Georgetown yesterday, the final
score being 1 to 0. In the seventh,
after two had perished. SCully sent
one of the Georgetown twirlers
shoots to the center-field stands for
triple and when Shea, who had prev

poked a single to right, the winning
run shot home.
Up to this point both pitchers had
been the masters of the situation and
but for these two hits, no doubt the
teams would still be fighting. Muir

eleven men. was in top form today
striking out eleven of the opposing

American Citizenship Exempts
Oscar Nordman From Fate
of Other TahitanS

News that his two brothers. Paul
and Edward Ncrdman of Papeete, Ia
hiti, are pow in Australia with sew
eral hundred other men of Tahiti in
training for the front, has been re-
ceiyed by Oscar Nordman, porter of
the Oceanic liner Sonoma
Compulsory military service went
into effect in Tahiti few months ago,
and as result Nordman's brothers
and $50 other Tahitians were required
to go to Australia for military train
ing. They left Tahiti on the Moana
and were disappointed not to find him
on his steamer at Sydney.
Il hope to be able to say goodbye
to them in sydney said No-dman the
other day, ''as they will be in training
at Noamea, New Caledonia, for three
months, and hope to be able to go
before they leave
Nordman is . naturalized American
citizen, although born in Tahiti, a
French possession. This renders him
immune from compulsory military
duty in the French army. Nordman
is staying in Honolulu awaiting his
trial on an opium smuggling charge
Of which he declares he is innocent.
He says he is proud to be an American
citizen.
