| the contestants by one vote, and Coke
tied with Kaiue, President KaIauoka-
lani casting the deciding vote in favor
of Coke.
In. choosing a epresentative-cand
date from Makawao district D. H. Au-
kai of Kula was beaten by Kekipi by
| 2 or 3 votes.
! In the choice from Molokai, F. w.
Beckley was barely beaten by D. H.
Kahaulelio and in selection for Hama
VIM. L. Hardy ran close with Kauirna-

| For Lahaina honors Geo. Kauhi

| Senator KalauokaIani presided and
was the controlling spirit of the con-
vention.
| The Republicans say that the slate
nominated last Saturday is decidedly
a weak one and it is rumored that the
Democrats are much dissatisfied with
it. Rumor has it that the Democrat
| will soon hold convention by them
selves and nominate an entire new
representative ticket. The Pauwels
Democrats are especially aroused over
| the matter.

gagged In raising horses there We're to be
found on Maui some of the best horses

Where is the
Economy :?
OF buying cheap paints.

Ever have a cheap job of painting
done on your house and find the paint
clubbing off as soon as dry and look
ing worse after six months than If it
hadn't been put on?
Whoever did the job used cheap
paints
Here are five good paints that you
can specify for the particular purpose
required. They are all perfectly rell-
able and first-class, yet the prices are
very low.

A Pleasant Event.

A surprise party was rendered Mrs.
E. Polkinghorn last Friday evening
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Holmes. The members of the
Presbyterian church OF which Mrs.
Polkingnorn has long been an active
member, assembled at the above resi-
dence and during the evening which
was spent in social conversation,
games, etc.. Mr.. r. S. Miller after a
few well chosen remarks presented
Mrs. Polkinghorn, on behalf of the
congregation with beautiful hand
painted pitcher. w. j. Cowling, in
in his usual impressive manner. sang
several solos, after which refresh
ments were served. All present en-
Joyed pleasant evening. 1t is to be
regretted that Ely should lose such
good citizen as Mrs. Polkinghorn
and all who know her wish her
abundant happiness in her new home.

Amos Sheppard Talks.

Amos SHEPPARD, superintendent OF
mines for Corrigan, Mckinney & Co..
on the Mesaba range Monday stated
that in his opinion the iron ore ship.
ments from the Lake Superior region
for the season of 1904 will be 20 pei
cent less than they were in 1903.
SIT will take until 1905 and possibly
1906 to get the iron ore movement
back on the old basis Of 1902" said
Mr.. Sheppard. This being pre-
sidential year, the outlook at this
early date is very uncertain. Booms
and depressions come suddenly in the
iron business. A year ago there was
talk, and seemingly we'll founded, that
the shipments for 1903 would reach
the 80, 900, 900 tons mark. Weall know
how the business went to pieces early
in'the fall.
"The outlook is blue now but there
is no telling how much the situation
may improve. Thirty or sixty days
from now we may all be wondering
why we were so quick to coz rdemn the
year in advance. The demand and
prices for ore may be much improved

1t Got Away.

Many years ago farmer put mark
on Il silver dollar and went to town
and spent it with merchant. Before
the year was out he got the marked
dollar back again for poultry and
spent it again with a local merchant.
Four times in six years that dollar
come hack to him for produce, and
three times lie heard Of it in the
pockets of his neighbors. The last
time lie got it in change he sent it to
a mail order house that has amassed
IA million dolalrs selling third rate
stuff. He has never seen it since and
will never till the crack Of doom.
That dollar will never pay any more
school tax or road tax for him; never
helpto build up town or country:
never help bless or brighten the homes
Of his neighbors. He sent it entirely
out of its sphere Of usefulness to him.

O'Clock Of tuberculous kidney.
lie was man 38 years of age and
was i'll for over year. although only
five weeks previous to his death he
quit work. On Thursday he went to
the hospital and on Saturday morn
ing was operated on. Sunday at noon
he began to flil and all that medical
skill could accomplish was not suffi-
cient to prolong his life after 8 O'Clock.
The funeral occurred Wednesday
from the M. e. church the remains
being taken to Tower for burial. The
services at the church were conducted
by Revs. Saunderson and Logan and
took place at 1890 o'clock in order to
reach the afternoon train. The
funeral was largely attended, the Odd
Fellows, Of which deceased was a
member, turning out in a body TO es-
cort the remains to the church .and
later to the grave, nearly fifty men,
bers of that order :going to Tower.
The floral offerings were beautiful
and appropriate, Ely Lodge No. l220
furnishing most beautiful pillow,
the Sunday school OF the NJ. E. church
the same and the Rebekahs an elegant
floral tribute. Many individuals also
rendered flowers.
The remains were taken to Tower
on the afternoon train and laid to rest
in Lakeside cemetery. The train was
met at the depot by Tower Hodge of
Odd Fellows and host OF former
friends and fellow citizens. Revs.
Saunderson and Logan said prayers at
the grave followed by the beautiful
ritualistic funeral service of the Odd
Fellows.
"Bob," as he was familiarly known,
was very popular friend among
large circle of his associates. OF a
quiet. genial disposition, he made
friends with his pure mode Of living.
He was of most generous nature, al
ways doing his mite towards helping
suffering mankind. He was a most
dutiful son and on his afflicted parents
falls the loss of most loyal helpmeet.
In truth it can be said, the world was
better for "BOb's" having lived.
The sympathy of the community is
with the sorrowing relatives.

The Modern Woodmen and the
Royal Neighbors are both defendants
in cases in District Court in Duluth
for non payment ofinsurance policies.
1t seems that one Cook failed to tell
the truth regarding his appetite
for liquor when examined for his
policy, and the lodge Is fighting the
payment of his insurance. The other
case is brought by the heirs OF
suicide against the Royal Neighbors.
In the first case, it looks very much
as il the lodge was entitled to pay
the claim as it was the duty of the
members and the lodge to reject the
mans money il they knew lie was
wrong member. After the mans
death it Is hardly fair to the widow
to refuse payment.

of the litigation, were placed on re-
cord Monday afternoon.
In the complaint, the city of Tower
sets forth the history of the two con-
tagious disease epidemics which held
sway here. The smallpox epidemic
began April 3, 1903, and ended Nov.
II, 1903. The cost Of caring for patti
ents, establishing quarantine and
placing guards was $9S3.77. Later, a
diphtheria epidemic came. In hand
ling the last contagiOn. the board of
health of the town decided upon the
use or anti-toxin, which cost con-
siderable sum.
The complaint then set forth the
municipal history of the payment of
tue $I.015.S0 by the city council. The
portion of the expense which it was
deemed by those in charge Of the work
the county should bear was arranged
in proper form and presented to the
county board, which refused to allow
the claim: hence the appeal.
