tho government of the Territory of
Hnwnll provides:
"That n Delegate) to tho House of
HeprcRetilntlvcs of the United Hlnt"R,
to servo during each Congress, shall

Section 0 of that Act provldi-H:
"That the laws of Hawaii not Incon

Section r,5 of Bald Act. which set 11

ninllflcd to voto for members of tho

lature, Tho tlmo ror holding hiicIi
election Is fixed by Section 14 ot thu
Organic Act, but neither In that Act
nor In tho laws of tho Territory In
tliero any definite procedure fur tho
conduct nf such election. Therefore
tho Secretary or thu Territory was
obllgfil to (ormulnto entirely new mid
Independent rules nnd regulations ror
the election or n Delegnto, or lo so ad
just mid supplement Its present elec
tion Inws nnd mnchlncry ns to ncccim-plisl-

Under tho Hawaiian election law It

lo correct those mistakes by removing
the numbers from such ballots before

liefniP they were opened mid credited
lo Ihe several candidates, or these bal
lot Irom which the numbers wero
removed then were 2.200. leaving 2.

conlrRleo in their briefs nnd argu

that the 2,200 hnllotn from which llio
numl.ers had been reihoved wero valid
nml should be counted With .his eon
elusion jinir committee can not ngreo.
If the 2.927 bnllots from which the
Viiinil ern were not removed were void,
we nro of the opinion that thn 2,200
from which the numbers wero remov

cast when they wero deposited In tho
boxes, nml If void then nothing which
the election officers did nlterwnriM
