POLITICS ON MAUI.

nous editor of the Hawaiian Gazette
is extremely exhilarated, because
the Minister of Interior published
the famous Sect. 102 of the Election
Law In the same issue as my cores
pondencc to you in regard to Gov
crnmcnt. officers in politics appeared.
The reason why said publication
took place is not unknown even to
Maui people. Not word is said,
though. in answer to my remarks
in regard to The appointment of the
Inspectors of Election. These APP
pointments are made not alene con-
trary to the spirit, but also. contrary
to the wording of the law. a board
consisting of Mr.. Ross, the heal
luna:of Spreckelsvillc, Mr.. Wilder,
the boss in Kahului, and Mr.. Moss
man, the Collector of Customs, is
only made for the purpose of init
midating the workingmen in Sprcck-
clsviic and kahului. This little
dodge may not prove successful,
anyhow. There is fortunately very
independent spirit ruling in the vot-
ers this time. 1t is ridiculous TO
hear the great Reform men of 81
curse the day that they gave the
franchise to the Portuguese. This
nationality cannot he handled as
easily as at the last election.
The ticket for Mobiles representing
the National Reform Party for Maui
consists of the following names:
w. ii. Daniels,
VIM. Goodness.
Antoine Borba,
J. Kamakele,
&. O. Berger,
Daniel Logan.
The two lastnamed gentlemen are
moi residents of Maui, but have been
requested to represent this island.
Mr.. Berger is the sOn-in-law of the
kamaaina on Maui, Mr.. Widcmam.
His interests and views are so nearly
connected with those of Mr.. Wide
mann, that we all feel assured that
he will prove himself a most dcsir-
able representative for the interests
of Maui.
Mr.. Logan is, as one of the edit
ors Of the most popular newspaper
IN the country, well known to most
of the voters through his writings.
His nomination gives general salts
faction, and we are confident that
he will as legislator prove himself
a staunch and able friend of the
workingmen. The men who before
elected for Maui w. II. Castle,
Widemann, and Kawainui, are ridi-
culing the idea of having Honolulu
residents on our ticket. There is
plenty able and good men in the
National Reform Party on Maui, but
financial circumstances prevent
nearly everybody from sacrificing
time and money to serve the coun-
try as legislators. 1t is an absurd
lty that the men who make the laws
are not paid enough to enable them
to leave their business for few
months for the welfare of the coun-
try. The Representative for the
different districts supported by the
National Reform Party are:
Wailuku-John w. Kalua and l..
w. L. kanealii.
Lahaina-J. Nazareta.
Hana-P. Kamai.
Molokai-A. =. kapaehaOlc.
For Makawao the Party intend
cd to support Mr.. w. fl. Halstead,
but as this gentleman is reported to
have become-quite suddenly
Baldwin man, the Party has lost in.
terest in him. We hope that all
voters in sympathy with the Mocha
MICS and Workingmen's Union and
with the Hui Kalaiaina will do all in
their power to elect the men above
mentioned. The Government No

because they cannot spend theil
money in bribery this time, withOu,
