No Democratic Primaries to be Held
Story About Resignation in
Favor of Minority Proves
Canard.
A Bulletin reporter caught D. P. R.
Isenberg as he was hurrying through
tho streets In a hack this morning.
The reported Democratic nominee fot
delegate to Washington smiled, said ho
knew what was wanted and then con
tradicted himself Immediately by ask
ing what was wanted.
"Have you been nominated by the
Democrats as their delegate to Wash
ington, Mr. Isenberg?" asked the re
porter. "The first I heard of tills whole thing
wns when I read one of tho morning
papers."
"Well, But hasn't anyone said any
thing to you about running ns tho Dem
ocratic nominee?"
"No, sir, not a word, and to tell you
the truth, I am so much excited over
the whole thing that I leave for Kauai
In the W. G. Hall this afternoon to get
calmed down."
"Then, you have not accepted tho
nomination?"
"Now, seo hero young man, didn't I
Just say nothing had been said to mo
auout running. You can t catch me
that way."
"One more question, Mr. Isenberg,
Would you accept tho nomination If It
wns offered to you?"
"I can say nothing on that point. It
has not been offered to me yet. Good
bye, I'm off to Kauai."
Apropos of this reported nomination
of Mr. Isenberg, a prominent Democrat
said this morning: "Welt, If Iscnber
Is nominated, we won't do a thing to
htm."
Undoubtedly Mr. Isenberg Is tho
choice of one faction of tho Democratic
party and undoubtedly ho Is not the
choice of tho faction represented tho
Democrat Just referred to. If ho is
nominated, thcro Is bound to be a 1)U
split up In tho party. This was sug
gested to tho Democrat referred to but
It did not seem to mako uny difference
to him. He Is bent on fighting I'aul
Isenberg.
For somo reason, occult or other, the
tonauts of tho Democratic wigwam nt-e
holding a pall of mystery over their
powwow of last night. Several who
have been, seen refused evcn"to give the
name of any member of the committee
appointed to wait on Mr. iBenberg and
ask him to stand as candldato tor De'
egate to Congress.
It was possible, however, to tha.v out
the reticence of ono small group of
braves enough to release from them the
Information that a systematic cam
paign for tho propagation of the Dem
ocratic faith on the other Islands Is
about to begin.
John E. Bush and J. M. Hlnib are tho
apostles for Kauai, leaving In tho

The Hawaii came In from Hllo today
with later news in regard to the recent

a Bulletin reporter:
"We sailed from Hllo on Salurda.
morning last. Just previous to depar
ture we heard of the rearrest of the two
sailors from the schooner Okanogan
who were suspected of having commit
ted the crime. You will rememb".- that
they were released about u week ago
because no evidence against them coulo
be found ,
"It now turns out that a Portuguese
hack driver has Identified th" two
men and that It was on hli evidence
that the men were rearrested. Ho stat
ca to police authorities that, on the
day of the murder, he was engaged by
the two men to tnko them out to the
track.
"Upon arrival there, they wanted
him to .turn Into a secluded spot. The
ho refused to do, scenting trouble In the
tono of voice the men used. They In
slstcd and, upon he again rofuslng, tho
men called him u vile name and, ns
he turned around, ho caught sight of
an ugly looking knife in the hands of
one uf them,
As the boy was speeding away, he
saw the two sailors ball a Chinese hack
that wus coming up the n.id. They
were soon Inside and the driver was
seen to turn his horse toward the Olia
road.
"It has turned out further tbnta wit

"Fortunately, two other men were
coming along from behind at tho time.
Tho sailors In the carriage Jumped ot't
and then tlio Portuguese whipped up
his horse und mado for Hllo. The men
wero not seen but their stature was
well marked and the evidence uloas
this line seems to tally well with thai
given by the Portuguese hack driver."
