THE CAMPAIGN.
The Maui Republican campaigners
including all the candidates under the
management of Geo. o. Cooper will re-
turn to Wailuku today from their East
Maui tour Their itinerary included
meetings at Peahi Huelo, Keanae, Ma
hiku, Hama. Puuiki, Kipahulu Kaupo,
Makena and Keokea (kula).
At all these places they had we'll at
tended rallies-everybody, whatever
their political opinions, coming and lis
tening as though eager to gain infor-
nation. The former lukewarm feeling
seems to have entirely disappeared
and the prejudice against Republicans
simply because they are Republican
seems also to have vanished.
