now THE CONVENTIONS VOTE.

In the Republican convention, pre-
cedent has established that ma
iority vote is sufficient TO nomi-
nate. Division of State votes is
also permitted by custom.
The Democratic convention is
governed by the "two-thrds' vote
and that "mit system" that is.
two thirds is necessary to vote, aud
tile votes of individual state dele
cations must be- cast en- bloc. This
practice dates back to the 1892 con-
yention, When Jackson invented it
to force Van Buren's nomination as
vice-president on the ticket with

Riskine A Reputation


Honolulu is justified III a vigorous protest to Wash
ington against the dscontinuarce OF federal medical
inspection for vessel arriving here from Pacific coasi
ports.
The arguments for and against this inspection are
too wel-known to need repetition. The Star-Bulletn
recited them when the suggestion made recently
before the Promotion Committee that this safeguard
the public health should be swept away. 1t appears
that the II S. Public Health Service in Washington
would discontinue the inspection only on american
vessels arriving from American ports the Pacific,
bun since these arrivals constitute the bulk of passenger
steamers touching here, the main safeguards against
the admission of dangerous disease viii be. if not
wholly broken down, at least very much weakened.
Hawaii has no more potent argument in building
up great tourist traffic than the that these
islands are free Of disease-scouges In tropical and
sub-tropicai countries eternal vigilance is price of
1eahhs This port has fought for many years to win,
establish and hold not only the reputation Of being
clean port but the reputation Of being vgilant port

Democratic orators and Democratic papers have
been twiting Candidate Hughes because he has been
pledged the support of German American organiza-
tons and has been given the praise of German Amer
lean citizens since his nomination
The twitters have tried make political capital out
of this declaring that Hughes had won such support
by silence upon the issue of professional hyphenis
They obviously sought to create the impression that
the Republican candidate sbordinating patriotic
viction to- political expediency, would not deneunce
unneutral plots in the United States as President Viii
son has denounced them
q The Carnegie Hall notification ceremonies last night
afforded Mr. Hughes his first opportunity for speech
upon the big campaign issues. How he seized this
first opportunity is shown in the following teegraphed
extract from the speech:
We denounce all plots and all conspiracies formed
in the United States in the interest of any foreign
countries. We regard it as utterly intolerable that
our soil should be made the breeding place of such
alien intrigues Every American must unreservedly
condemn these practses and must rally to the support
of the government in any efforts it may make to sup
press them.
