There was an absence of bustle at
Democratic headquarters in the
Walty building, In the early hours of
the polling, which merely betokened
that the hustlers were out on the fir
ing line. Now and again strains of
soft harmonies floated through the
corridor, from a lei-bedecked female
glee club stationed at the top of the
tairs. It was expected that the
tuneful body would be given a round
of the polls about midday, to cheer
the workers and lure votes to the
cau.e with guitar and voice. This
depended on there being an automo
bile to spare at that time.
B. G. Rlvenburgh. chairman of the
county committee, was at headquar
tehs by 6:30 a. ra.. but there was not
much doing until the autos rolled up
to report for duty and were sent to
Ibeir stations.
"We have plenty of autos, Mr.
Rlvenburgh said. "There is one for
every precinct and in some cases
two. We have twenty-five machines
altogether."
A captain , was allotted, to every
precinct, in some cases having an al
ternate. It is not every precinct in
the United States that will have the
distinction of the second of the fourth
here today, whose Wilsonian captain

Sails .Without Husband on; the
v v Sierra' for Home : in
The San ;Francisco Bulletin of, Oc
lober 23 ' contains , the following ' story
that J8 of local interest:
' The Oceanic steamer .. Sierra , slip
ped Into, the, harbor between' showers
this morning from Honolulu with the
loneliest honeymooner who baa ever
arrived at this port. : v ' ; ; :''.''., ,.;
The-.'newly wed ;, :was Mrs. "Horace
Keelor, a. former trained 'nurse at ' the
Queen's Hospltal,;in, the Islands,; who J
was married to one or Hawaii s pros
perous undertakers - at 9 o'clock on
Saturday morning, the sailing: day ,"of
the r Sierra and who departed , at
noon, three hours. later,-f or her home
at Pocatello, Idaho. :.-,
Mrs.r Keelor .hung far' over the
iteamer'8 rail waving good-bye and
tossing 'kisses to her ...husband : until
the Sierra, had. pointed its nose ; to
ward the open seas, and passed out of
sight of Diamond Head. ,."
The husband .was left standing, a
forlorn figure on. the wharf, a tear on
either cheek, and with nothing but his
empty undertaking . parlor to go back
to.' . He must remain until such time
as he can dispose of his interests in
and about Honolulu, when .he, too,
will purchase a ticket and hasten
across land and sea to his blushing
bride. .
The . wedding event brought to a
happy close a romance which sprung
up last April between Miss Louise
Whipple, then a nurse at the hospi
tal, and Horace Keelor, who came to
have his ' appendix removed. When
Keelor was nursed back to health he
very graciously gave the credit to
Miss Whipple. . Then. he popped the
query ever old, ever new
At nrst tne nurse declined, navmg
In mind the rule of the hospital that
no married nurses need expect to
hold a position in the institution.
She said she was undecided whether
to marry and settle dow-u or remain
as a nurse. Keelor x not have
this, and his plea fina.y won Miss
Whipple's consent
That evening she was told that
while the hospital authorities had to
part with her, it was only with a great
deal of regret and a sincere desire
that she have a happy married life.

year."
Of the total registration of 446 a hal
lo of hid been cast at 2 p. m. This
is the largest precinct in Honolulu, yet
voting has progressed in such order
ly manner and so rapidly that only !::
bfllots remained to be cast in the
iLst three hours of the day. The in
spectors were kept constantly atjWorK
and the booths were filled steadily
during the first four hours.
The only voters remaining, it was
ngured, were, the Honolulu railway
employes, who will vote during the
last hour, as they return home from
their work. This is the city s most
congested district where trouble is in
variably anticipated, but despite the
big crowd around the polling place
nothing untoward had occurred. Dem
ocratic partisans were making a de
monstration nearby, with a band and
campaign oratory. A noticeable feat
ure this year at this point is the ab
sence of drunkenneis around the poll
ing booth.
Seventh Precinct. Fourth District.
At 10:30 o'clock this morning 11?
out of 310 registered votes had been
cast in this precinct i The polling
place is at tne Doara.ot, neaitn Duua
ing in a booth under a banyan tree.
At one time this norn frig there were
twenty or more of the' candidates in
sight, most of them claiming indivi
dual victories. Mayor Fern, Charles
Hustace, John ' Markham, John W.
Cathcart, Joe Cohen, CoL McCarthy
and others were busy watching the
"Kakaako bunch" In the sixth and sev
enth precincts.
Eighth Precinct, Fourth " District
The election moved smoothly in the
Eighth of the Fourth, thepoinng-place
for which is on EmmaSquare. By
11:45 181 votes had been marked on
the sheet, more than 50 per cent of
the total i registration of 33d. The
straight Democratic ticket- was mak
ing a good run; according to ' rumor,
while the Republicans were getting a
spilt-vote.."x'; - '.V.-'f'
Several members of the police force
put f in an - appearance shortly :i before
noon, and asked It there; was amy thing
for them to'.do in the way of quelllng
rjots; but the' election officers .gave
them the laugh, the voting during the
morning being about the most quiet
arid 'orderly on .record. .' There were
no- fights of any kind, and the work
ers for both parties confined their ar
guments entirely to moral suasion,
' At 1:50 this afternoon the total vote
polled was 246. 1

253 votes had been polled at -12:25

Barron that John Townsend should be

From - a straw vote taken of those
who were willing to talk over their
ballot, it ' seemed that ; McCandless
was ' making, a strong; run. The Demo
crats claimed 70 per cent of the vote
cast, for. tbe head 'of, their: ticket K
H. Paris was being knifed, according
to polling place rumor.
Tenth Precinct, Fourth District "
There was very little stir around
this polling place, corner Nuuanu and
Bates streets, the registration being
small and confined largely to the resi
dence district . The vote came fairly
strong in the early morning, and then
fell off toward the noon hour. It Is
expected that there will be some late
votes in just before the polls close.
The total registration in the tenth
of the fourth is 156, and of this num
ber 79 had castithelr ballots at 11:30,
and 91 at 12:20. What electioneering
was being done around the polls' seem
ed to come from the Democrats, their
badges being more in evidence than
those of Republican workers.
Eleventh Precinct, Fourth District.
Waimanalo A telephone message
from that precinct to the Star-Bulletin
at 1 : 30 p. m. stated that voting is slow
and light, only a small number of the
registered vote being cast up to that
hour. Republican prospects reported
very bright there.
Twelfth Precinct, Fourth, District
This is a Punchbowl preciiftt, the
booth being on Punchbowl street near
the Pauoa stream bridge. It is con
sidered by the Democrats as their
strongest precinct in proportion to to
tal vote, but Republican workers
claimed to be doing better than they
expected. At noon L. L. McCandless
put in an appearance in a big motor
car, and made a short speech that
was received with -cheers
Republican candidates made fre
quent trips to this precinct, and
throughout the morning there was a
steady stream of motors carrying office-seekers
of that party. The Dem
ocrats seemed serenely confident of
sweeping the precinct, and a good
many of the candidates gave it the go
by altogether.
At 12:10 this afternoon 134 votes
had been polled out of a total registra
tion of 336.
At 2:25 this afternoon 262 votes had
been, polled out of the total 336 reg-
istered- At least fifty more are on J
the lists to be 'voted after 3 o'clock.'

It appeared as if tbe Republicans
were doing the hardest work ia every
precinct, an air of lassitude being evi

While of conrie each side made boasts
in only one or two cases did the work
ers put forth obviously ridiculous pre
