IRRIGATION MEETING
WAS HELD SATURDAY
Three Directors Nominated but two OF
Them Refuse to Accent

Alittle meeting was held in the city
hall last Saturday by Messrs. Grif-
fiths, Magee, johnson and Murray.
There was some audience present at
the morning session but it dwindled
sorrowfully before the afternoon
call. 1t was a small meeting, but
very elaborate and a very preten-
tious one. 1t created a machine as
formidable as that of a national
convention. Mr.. Magee made Mr..
Murray temporary chairman and
Mr.. Johnson temporary secretary.
Mr.. Griffiths and Mr.. Murray and
Mr.. Magee made Messrs. Griffiths,
Murray and Magee the committee
on Rules, Order of Business and
Organization. The committee On
Rules, Order of Business and Or
ganization which was Griffiths, Ma
gee and Murray, made Murray and
Johnson permanent organization.
Grifiths, Magee and Murray were
also the committee on Platforms
and Resolutions. Then Magee
Murray and Grif6ths created cam
paign committee consisting of Ma
gee Murray and johnson. Now
what was all this elaborate machin-
cry for? 1t would seem that the
great purpose was to nominate
three directors for the Pioneer Irri-
cation District who would be quite
acceptable to Magee, Murray, John
son and Grifhths. Magee, Murray,
Johnson and Griffiths thought
themselvee abundantly qualified to
name such men as Magee, Murray,
Griffith and Johnson could approve.
For precinct No. I, they selected L.
w. Rhodes, most excellent gen
tlemen, therefore he declined with
many thanks, intimating that he
was a man of peace, endeavoring to
so conduct his life as to warrant
him in the hope of his souls saliva

Why This Delay.

From all parts Of the proposed
Payette-Boise project are beginning
to be heard mutterings of discomfort
at the delay in beginning work, or
rather at the paucity of information
as to whether construction will be-
gin or not. In the minds of those
who have watched proceedings
closely, there is but one conclusion
to be arrived at, and that is that
there is a screw loose somewheIe in
the reclamation service. The di-
rectors have worked increasingly,
and all their doings have been given
all the publicity possible. With
only few exceptions they have
been warmly seconded by the land
owners, and they have had the
hearty support of every newspaper
in the two valleys. The reclama-
ton service has had the same sup
port from the people and the papers
but they have given US absolutely
no information, except as to the
fact that they are not ready yet to
60 ahead. What is the reason for
the delay7 Does the fault lie with
the department, or with the high
salaried experts" it employs?
Does the trouble lie with the people
the board, the engineers. or with
the department? Why can't the
honorable board of consulting engi-
neers tell us what's the matter, if
they know, or tell US what they are
trying to find out, if they don't
know? Are they holding back
good news because they are afraid
some OF good citizens might drop
dead from an excess of Joy, or bad
news because the opposite condition
might cause our sudden demise?
In either case we pray them to de-
sist from silence. All of us can
stand adversely and grief, and some
Of US might stand prosperity. Per
sonally, we have never tried the
latter yet. but are willing to take
the chance, and we believe there are
others of the same mind. Please
give us little light on the subject,
so that we may return to earth
once more, for at the present time
we are hopelessly up in the ait
Parma Herald.

ton. Mr.. B. w. Sower, another
most excellent gentlemen, was
named for precinct 2. He, also, was
very appreciative, very grateful,
and very, very determined not to
accept. He probably felt that he
dared not enter where so good
man as Rhodes feareo to tread.
w. L. Parrish, who is a nice
young man closely allied to Griffith,
Magee, Murray and Johnson, was
put for No. 3 and will probably
stay put in fear and trembling.
The meeting of Grifiths, Magee,
johnson and Murray was singularly
harmonious in its earlier stages,
but the campaign committee had
not begun to collect sinews of war
yet. When tbs exchequer begins
to flourish, there may come un-
pleasant understandings. Mean
time Grif6ths, Magee, Johnson and
Murray are leading the strenuous
life. They are fired with a mighty
zeal to promote the welfare of the
human family to the end that the
affairs of the human family shall
be entrusted to Grifiths, Magee and
Murray. In which event they will
cheerfully immediate themselves on
/ the public altar. Johnson might be
induced to take a secretaryship,
Magee a superintepdency and
Grif6ths, let us hope, would for a
mere 500 a year submit to being
retained as legal adviser and pleni-
potentiary: Murray would make
any remaining sacrifice that the
public veal demanded.
In due time GriA6iths, Magee,
Johnson and Murray adjourned the
the Gm i'm meeting and went on
their way, very sensible of a mighty
good they had wrought for the
human family, viz: Grifiths, Ma
gee, johnson and Murray.

So Caldwell and Nampa are to
receive electric energy from the
Trade Dollar Power plant. Power
is generated by the waters of Snake
river, about IS miles southeast of
Caldwell. All the surveys have
been made and the conducting line
will be built as soon as material can
be procured. 1t is expected that
power and light will be furnished
at prices within the reach of all.
The new grist mill will be run by
electric power which is to be fur
nished by the Caldwell Power plant
until the new plant is established.
1t is understood that Mr.. w. R.
Sebree has made arrangements
wherby his company will control
the local situation. Those who
know Mr.. Sebree best warrant that
the people of Caldwell will be given
a square deal, and, therefore,
strength to his arm.

FIRE DESTROYS BARN
OF HUSTACE, PECK & CO,

An alarm of fire from Box 81, corner
Alapai and King streets, at 2:53 p. m.
yesterday called the department to
Clayton street, in the Kewalo section,
where the feed barn Of Hustace, Peck
& Co. was on fire. The alarm was not
turned in until the building was all
ablaze. the telephone at the stables
failing to work. so that man had to
run to the fire box on King street.
When the department arrived 1t was
too late to save the barn, but the
adjoining buildings were all saved
The horses in the stables were liber-
ated and none were lost. The feed
BID n was a total loss, but was insured,
the policy having expired only last
Friday and having been renewed. In
the barn We're about 500 bales Of hay,
come loose hay, a large quantity OF
grain, barley and oats. also some
plows, windmills and other hardware
belonging to the Pacific Hardware co.
The cause of the fire is a mystery, but
it is supposed to have originated from
cigar or cigarette dropped in the
hay. However, it was stated that no
one had been in the barn since morn
ing. Spontaneous combustion is an
other theory.

WILL HELP
The VOTERS
Boards to Sit for Those
Who Have Changed
Residence.

Yesterday Governor Carter gave or
ders that the Registration Boards
should sit on the day of election so
that voters who have changed their
places of residence since the last cleo
ton may have a chance to have their
transfers recorded, and not be obliged
to lose their votes The Honolulu
Board will sit for this purpose in the
hall of the Capitol building.
The Office force in the Governor IS
Office, or in the Office of the Secretary,
rather, is still busy getting out election
supplies and preparing all things for
the coming struggle at the polls. Chief
Clerk Bucklanu, in fact, is as busy
as two men. And this is particularly
true in the matter of proofs. For
there is a lot of printing, proclama-
tions and tickets and posters and
what not, incident to an election, and
the proofs of all this matter, the print
er's proofs, must be passed upon by
the Chief Clerk.
The printer, being served by the
devil, is not a respecter of the Sab
bath, which explains why Clerk Buck
land did not have perhaps as restful
a day on Sunday as some other public
servants. Buckland, indeed, read proof
in his office until well along in the aft
ernoon. Then he started down town, to
get a breath of fresh air, and was met
by printer IS boy with proofs just as
he stepped out of the Capitol grounds.
He took the proof.
They re waiting for that!' said
the boy, with something of a threat
in his tone.
Clerk BuekIand continued serenely
on his way down town, but had not
reached Fort street when printer
hailed him with a vociferous demand
to come and read PROOF. This was an
other printer. The clerk fled back to
his office, but was overtaken by still
another boy with proofs before he got
there. Then he went home, and found
a printers s boy waiting for him with
proofs. This one went away appeased,
and the clerk laid down in a hammock
and was awakened twice within

RECEIVES BAD NEWS.

J. n. X Keola received a wireless
from his wife at Makawao,
Maui, last night announcing the death
there of his infant daughter, Lilly,
aged fourteen months. Mr.. Keola came
to Honolulu last week on account of
the death of his mother.

half an hour by boys with proofs.
Dinner time brought no relief, but it
brought more bovs-two more. And
with the dessert there came in the
proofs of the journal of the last Legis-
lature to be read.
And then Buckland struck. In fact,
it is not of record whether that last
proof was read at all, because the
Chief Clerk will not talk about it
and nobody has seen the boy.

fight back. Carter is a fighter, and if
he thinks he is in the right will fight
like a tiger-in the full faith that he
will be sustained from Washington,
even in defeat. if that comes.
CHANCE FOR THE OPPOSITION.
Now, this is the chance for an in
telligent opposition. Mr.. Brown did
not carry Oahu in the last county
election with anything to spare. There
be those who say that he did not carry
it at all, although the returns showed
that he did. A good strong man, it is
argued, could under the circumstances
take the prize of the shrievalty away
from the Republicans. Why, then,
should the opposition enter and take
part in a Republican family quarrel,
when it could advantage itself so mu II
more by making a straight out fight?
1t is the worst kind of politics.
There is probably nothing in the
story about Lyle Dickey being named
by the Civic Federation for District
Attorney. Theodore Richards said yes
terday that the Federation had not
considered the name of anybody yet
for any position. There had been
some individual expressions of prefer
ences, but nothing more. And there is
no good reason to advance why good
citizens should not support Douthitt
for attorney. He is in every way
qualified.
The Republican campaign will open
with a whoop on Wednesday night.
There will be meetings at Kakaako
and Aala park, and the candidates will
be rushed from one to the other so
that all the voters may See them. OF
course there will be music and bon
fires and all the rest of it. From that
time on the campaign will be in full
swing, and on Thursday the Republi-
can candidates will start on tour of
the island. When the fusion campaign
will be/opened is not stated. The anti
Brown forces, however, will know on
Wednesday night what they have to
do

RAwLINs's CHANCE.

On behalf of Rawlins, it is claimed
that he will have the administration
behind him, and that he has great
strength with the native HaWaiians.
He was born in the islands and made
splendid race for District Attorney in
the last campaign. And his record in
the office of Deputy Sheriff is without
spot or stain. He has proven his pos
session Of the very qualities needed to
the successful conduct of the Sheriff's
office. These are the claims of the men
who are behind him.
Hemenway has not been mentioned
in connection with the office of sheriff
heretofore, and has not been consulted
with reference to the mention that was
made of him yesterday. But there is
no question that he will be very Sc
riously considered by the Civic Fedora
ton. And whoever gets the endorse
ment of that body will find that he
will have most enthusiastic backing.
1t may be Rawlins, it may be Hem
enway, it may be some man whose
name has not yet been mentioned
but it will not be Fred Wundenburg
That statement was made, in effect,
by a member of the Federation yester-
day.
The Republican county committee is
virtually in session all of the time
now, the office on Fort street being
never deserted. That means that no
effort will be spared to pull through
the ticket named at the Progress Hall
The managers recognize,
indeed, if the outside shouters do not,
that it is going to be pretty hard
fought campaign.
The Democrats have an office to fill,
that of County Attorney, E. NJ. Watson
not having accepted the nomination.
No one has been mentioned for his
place.
CANDIDATE QUINN'S OPINION.
II don't think Brown can be beaten
even with the new developments look
ing TO a Civic Federation candidate for
the office of Sheriff. said J. c. Quinn,
candidate for Supervisor. Il was a
Crabbe man before the convention, but
when the convention nominated
Brown. 1 pledged myself to support
him and all the rest of the candidates,
and I'll keep my promise. If it was
the administration that. i putting up
Rawlins for Sheriff, according to street
talk. just to oppose Brown, then the
should have said it
lidn't want Brown before the conven-
ton opened. That might have settled
