.KUMALAE ON
MAUI STUMP
Says Republicans
Plotted Ills
Arrest.

MAUI. oct. i5.-Prince Kuhio ar
rived at Lahaina last night and Will
proceed to make a stumping tour OF
the island.
with Beckley running as an inde-
pendent candidate for representative
and Kaiue as an Independent candidate
for the senate, political prophets on
Maui are in a muddled condition.
j. L. Coke Is making a most agrees
sive campaign In his running for sem
ator, but he has four formidable rivals
in the field.
1t is rumored that some of Coke's
Wailuku Republican friends are think
ing of scratching Kalama in favor of
Coke. Such course of procedure will
do more harm than good. Kalama' s
friends threaten to retaliate and
scratch Hayselden for White. Wisdom
lies with neither proposed course of
action.
Tuesday the 18th three Home Rule
orators addressed a meeting at the Pu-
lehuiki (Kula) Norman church. They
were Charles Motley, Jonah Kumalae
and David II. Kahaulelio. Though
Kahaulelio attacked Fred. Beckley
rather sharply and warned the thirty
men and women present against sup
porting Beckley's cause, Kumalae was
the hero of the occasion and his ora
tory seemed to have been much appre-
ciated. He made fierce attacks upon
Kuhio, Sam. Kalama and the Repub-
licans in general. His criticisms of the
prince We're concerning his life in
Washington, his arrest there and his
supposed harsh treatment of his Sec
rotary. His explanation of his (Ku-
malae's) indictment by the grand jury
was that it was all a Republican plot.
They knew he was going to leave the
party and had him put in Jail, fear
ing lest he would reveal party secrets.
Though Kumalae's political methods
would not appeal to the "haole," they
are quite effective among the Hawaiians
who dwell in the outer districts.
This party of Home Rule campaign
ers left Kula for Wailuku intending to
take the Kinau for Hawaii at Maa-
laea in the evening after holding a
meeting at Waikapu.
Col. C. p. Iaukea came to Maui in
the Kinau of Tuesday night and will
stump East Maui next week.

more fertile, so that the crop of cotton
or wheat or corn or potatoes planted
next year is many times larger Thus
the rotating crop the year following in
oculation derives an equal benefit from
the incubation. For instance a crop of
crimson clover, not inoculated, added
to one acre of land 4.3 pound of nj
trogen a crop of crimson clover, ino-
culated, added to one acre of precisely
similar land 1887 pounds of nitrogen,
an increase of 331a times; a crop of ino-
culated hairy vetch added to one acre
Is times more nitrogen than a crop of
uninoculated hairy vetch.
Cotton planted after an inoculated
crop of red clover gave an increased
yield of 40 per cent, Potatoes, after an
inoculated crop, yield an increase of 80
per cent, the oats 300 per cent, and the
rye 400 per cent. The table below
shows the effect of inoculated legumes
on various crops.
The germs can be used in any
climate. 1t must be clearly understood,
however that our leguminous plants
beans, clover, alfalfa, peas, lupin
the nitrogen-fxing bacteria. Where
the soil is rich in ntrates, the crop
is not appreciably increased by the use
of the inoculating bacteria; but where
the soil is poor, the harvest Is increased
many times.
There is not section of the United
States which will not profit by DR..
Moore's discovery. Nearly every State
has its wornout farmingland bringing
de spair to the economist who laments
our careless handling of the fields and
who wonders how the country will sup
port the hundreds of millions soon to
be ours. The bacteria means intensive
cultivation with a vengeance, and
should given him hope. 1t is impos-
sble as yet to calculate by how mucn
they will enhance the yield of our
crops and of the worlds crops, but the
results already achieved prove that in
time the gain will be enormous.
