Men In official Ufa are still pondering over tHe recent statement of ex-Senator. Obwlca ,yowne, former consul to TK6 King' tif Korea, who declared that war between the United States, and Japan was Inevit able. Senator Towne said that the Japanese, self-confident Bnd ambitious, need more territory for expansion and and that they will start a fight for the supremacy of the Pacific when the time comes. Voters of a speculative turn of mind have been Interested In figuring Just tim rhanee of the average candi date for commissioner to e elected June t. There are 77 candidates ana rour to h elected. This means that the aver aga candidate has one chance In 19 to be elected, and n cjmnces out o'i' that he will not be. , It now Heems likely that the 17 can dldates for commissioner will divide the vote pf less than 60,000 people, Seventy-five - thousand, approximately, have registered, and It Is expected that the unusual lntewst In the election will brine out at least two thirds oi tnem, Fifty thousand divided by 77 gves 049 representing the number of first choice votes the average candidate may ex pect. " If ho receives an" eo,ualnumber of , second and third choice votes, it will mean a total of 1947 for him. There is, of course, k great deal of difference between 1298 first and second choice vqtes that tha average candidate may expect and the 25,001 votes defined as a majority necessary to election under the commission charter ir ea.uou people vote; and this perhaps' indicates as graphically as anything ela could Just wnat Is tho average canoiaates cnance for election. It la, to be remembered that to be elected by first choice votes or first and aecond choice votes added, a majority of the people who vote must vote either first or second choices for the candidate. If It Is ..found that no candidate has a majority when first or first and second choice votes are added, the four candidates for commissioner having the highest number of first, second and third choice votes are de clared elected.
