all over the island. Tonight at wal
Iuku court house a general conven-
ton of the Maui Union Party will be
held for the purpose of nominating
candidates for three Senators and three
Representatives. According to the
edict of the Central Committee, La
haina and Maui are entitled to three
delegates, Wailuku three, Hama three,
while Makawao is to send four. The
Iabaina people have expressed pre-
ference for w. Y. Horner as a candi-
date for Senator, and Rev. A. Pail for
Representative. Both of these names
have already been endorsed by the
Waikiki and MakawaO clubs.
Last night the Waikiki Union Club
nominated in addition to the above,
HIP. Baldwin and James Anderson
for Senators, and S. L. Kaleikau, OF
Waihee, for Representative.
During the same evening at Hama
kuapoko the Makawao people instruc-
ted their delegate to vote for 1osepa, of
Hama, and p. A. Dias, of Honolulu, as
REPRESENTATIVES What the Hama Club
will recommend is a matter of conjec-
ture, inasmuch as they, when last
heard from, were unable to find suita-
BILE men who were willing to become
candidates.
The probable ticket OF the Maui
TTnion Party is Mes rs, w. Y. HOrner,
II. p. Baldwin and Mr.. - for SEN
ators and providing that the Hama
people present no new candidates,
Messrs. A. Pail, S. L. Kaleikau, and
p. A. Dias.
As Mr.. Anderson will undoubtedly
refuse to run as Senator there is much
doubt in regard to the nomination Of
the shird man. 1t is possible that
some citizen of Honolulu will be
named and endorsed.

by striking against a mango tree.

from existence
However, it is reported that the
suger company will make good the
damage inflicted, by giving kama

taro patches.
The reservoir was a natural one,
formed by placing a dam across a ra-
vine, and was situated a short distance
up the mountain, mauka of the plan
tation mule pen.
