JEMES. ~ NJ. Nov. 12.-The cleo
ton is over and that great Jemes feast
day known as the feast Of San Diego.
is thing of the past
The former was n very quiet affair
here the republicans carrying off the
laurels (this place is not behind the
times) the latter was as quiet an affair
as could be expected. There were on
" FIVE drunken people out of thous-
and who were present and there were
only two fights. which did not reach
large proportions. The gambling ele-
ment came out from Albuquerque the
same as last year. but as permission to
set up their dives in the plaza was re-
fused them. both by Mr.. Reagan the
government farmer and by Mr.. Angus
tine Recot. the governor of the Jemes
pueblo. they returned to Albuquerque
a disappointed set.
After being beaten twice here it
would seem that the tough element of
the above mentioned city would keep
clear of this place in the future. The
governor of the pueblo is to be COM
mended for the stand he took in the
interests of the pople.
The weather is fine and dry. Ii has
not been very cold here yet though
"Balda" has secured snow cap twice
already this fall.
The Indians OF Few and sveral from
this place are hunting in the south
western part of this territory at mis-
writing.
An American who passed through
here on the day of the feast got drunk
and had to be taken care of by an In
dian. How is that for US civilized
Americans?

SPRECKELSVILLE WILL
BE MOVED FIVE NILES
The New Town Will Be Situated More
Advantagsously Back of
Kahulu.

In little more than a year the town
of Spreckelsville will be no more. It is
to be wiped out almost entirely. and
post office and all it is to be moved to
a point in the midst of the cane fields
about five miles from its present loca-
ton and something less than a mile di-
rectly back of the port of Kahului.
Not only is the town to be moved
away but 1t is even to lose its name and
the name Spreckelsville will no longer
have a place on the map. For the new
town is to be called Kahului for it will
in effect be part of Kahului, or rather
Kahului will he its port.
The spot where the new town is to
rise is an unlovely one at the present
item. A stretch of bare brown hillside,
not tree in sight. nothing but brown
earth and dust and great red boulders.

will be the mems club house, a trim

removed from Spreckelsville until the

MAMMOTH SPRECKELSVlLLE DITCH IS FINISHED

scarcely an acre of level ground in all its

seemed absolutely necessary.
Once seized with the idea of securing
water for the higher levels Mr.. Lowrie
lost no. time In going over the land with
the plantation engineer, Z. L. Van Der
Neillen. to see whether IL was feasible or
not 1t took long time to ascertain
that il undertaken the work would cost a
vast sum for there were gulches by the
score, hundreds of feet deep, to be crossed
and ridge after ridge, numerous as the
waves of the ocean, to be pierced.

But there was nothing in the way that
pluck and energy and science and dol
lars would not overcome, and Mr.. Lowrie
thought of those COCO acres of rich cane

Maliko gulch. Anyone who lives the
vindward side of Maui will tell you what
lit is. 1t is known for the awful length of
the road which twists up and down its
precipitous sides, for the cocoanut grove
in its bottom, for the tiny little harbor
at its mouth where the Haiku Sugar Com
pany used to ship it's sugar years ago,
but most of all 1t has been known dur
ing the last year so and will be known
for many years to come for the immense
siphon which crosses it to convey the
waters of the Lowrie ditch. When Mr..
Van Der Neillen planned that siphon most
of Maui said it couldn't be built but Mr..
Van Der Naillen and Mr. Lowrie said it
could and should be. and IT is
! 1t takes a man with strong nerve to
stand at the edge of Maliko gulch and

lbreezes sweep down from Haleakala and
shake the kukui trees until they rattle
their stiff branches. Straight up and
down are the sides, with scarce room
along the faces of the cliffs for the waving
sourgrass to grow. Yet down the sides
of that canyon, $50 feet and more were

is that in two years more this plantation

1t next year if it were not for the shortage
OF labor and other things that have him

WHAT CANAL WILL DO.
"All of the six thousand acres which
we have reclaimed will not be cultivated
each year by any means. BY getting it
under cultivation we get just that much
more land for our operations. We could
not cultivate each year all of our available
land, some must be left to grow up again
in 'rattoon' or second growth cane, some
must be left fallow and given year or
so of rest and so on. But by the aid of
the new ditch we shall double our output
in two years more and we shall likewise
cut down to large extent one great item
OF expense-the operation of the pumps
Our coal bill is something enormous an
nually, and most of 1t goes to supply the
pumps. Their consumption of coal costs
us about $240 per day when they are
VIC rking. and even then they send the
water only to the $50 feet level. Besides
that the water from them is slightly
brackfsh and the cane on the lands which
, they supply with water needs mountain
water to refresh 1t and this the new ditch
will give. In the future we shall only
use the pumps in the dryest seasons when

At Spreckelsville there was great re-
joicing on Thursday when it was made
known that the water was flowing
through the canal and that all was well
with the undertaking. In the evening a
mammoth luau was given the employees
Of the plantation by Mr.. Lowrie and near

nected with the place. who could come
to Spreckelsville, attended. 1t was served
in the dance hall and was in true native
style, with poi in poi bowls made of ii
leaves and fish and pig cooked in ii leaves
in an earthen oven heated by white hot
stones. There were other and smaller
1uaus at different camps on the plantation
so distant from Spreckelsville that the
employees there were not able to come to
the big luau. The news of the ditch's
completion was telephoned all over the
