All Returns Pointing to A
Republican Landslide

ALL PRECED[NTs BR 0 KEA
Wilson Wins by Carrying
Unexpected Republican
Strongholds

Woodrow Wilson has been re-
elected President Of the United
States over Chas. H. Hughes by a
majority Of Is electoral votes. All
precedentS and supposed political
certainties have been smashed and
the most unique campaign in the
history of National election is end
ed, MIR. Wilson's total electoral
vote will be 27l while Mr.. Hughes
will receiye246. Early returns in.
dicated that Mr., Hughes had been
elected by a overwhelming majority
and not until late Wednesday
morning did the returns prove that
the Republican claims were incor-
rect. Inc election OF PRESIDENT
Wilson came from the fact that Re-
publican states which have always
been with the Old Guard went for
Wilson. California, Kansas and
Utah which have always been con.
sidered Republican states gave
President Wilson majorities. New
York and Indiana have never
been known to be on the losing
side of a NATIONAL campaign went
strong for Hughes. This precedent
was broken as was the precedent
that a Democratic President had
never succeeded himself.

to form National Guard COMPANY
here, but hesitate to apply because OF
tiisapproval of their parents, as not
all Of them favor, the idea, holding that
for their sons to join the National
Guard OF Hawaii would be disloyalty to
the mflxado. The young men, however.
declare their allegiance to be all for
the United States.
In commenting on this peculiar sit
uation, where native-born Japanese
youths are torn between filial duty and
patriotism for the country Of their
birth, Hawaii, the Hawaii Hochi In its
Thursday edition encourages Ha-
waiian-born Japanese to join the

There Is now q company of Hawaiizf-

There is doubt expressed by the

whether Gen. Johnson or Governor
