POLITICS DOING.
The political history of the week is as
follows: The Republican candidates,
Messrs. W. F. Pogue, j. K. Iosepa, A
N. Hayselden, w. H. King, n. w. Alu-
Ii and David Morton, returned from
Molokai to Lahaina on Thursday and
will be in Wailuku today, having
stumped Kaanapali Honokahau and
Kahakuloa Fourteen Home Rulers,
including all the candidates for county
honors, finished a circuit of East Maui
yesterday, having held meetings at
then at Kaupo, Kipahulu, Hama, Ma
hiku, Keanae, Huelo, Pauwela and
Paia. They spoke to Pauwela and
Paia people last night. They report
especial success at Puuiki, Hamoa.
They also state that though a joint
| Home Rule and Republican meeting
| was called at Hama native church last
| Monday night, the Republican orators
failed to put in an appearance. On
| their trip in from Keanae to Huelo, the
horse of D. H. Kahaulelio, candidate
for Clerk, fell eight feet down the side
| of pail and was saved from his
perilous position only by digging out a
portion of the bluff.
| The Home Rulers speak at Pulehu,
Kula, Mormon church this afternoon
following the Republicans (Messrs. w.
/ T. Robinson, S. e. Kalama and w. A.
Mckay, who have advertised their
| meeting at the same place just one
|
! ponents.
The last mentioned Republicans have
| just arrived from U1upalakua, complet-
| ing their tour via Huelo, Keanae, Ma
hiku, Hama, Hamoa, Kipahulu and Ka-
| upo-the reverse of the Home Rulers
political expedition.
Though early yet in the county cam
paign, the general feeling is that both
| Republicans and Home Rulers will
| split their tickets on election day,
choosing men from both states. They
say it is local affair, not like a gem
eral legislative election.
| The truth of the matter lis that the
average Hawaiian voter cannot at pres
ent, through lack of experience, under
stand the game of politics and vote a
straight party ticket. With him senti-
ment, personal considerations, come
first. Fortunately for the Republicans
of Maui they have nominated the more
popular ticket and will probably elect
more men than the Home Rulers,
| though the margin will be small
| STRAYS.
