MAUI, June 10-A review of the
present Maui political campaign TO Sc
cure the election of county officials
will perhaps at this time be apropos.
The Republicans well-organizei in
every precinct are supporting the fell
lowing candidates:
| w. E. Saffery. for sheriff; l.. NJ. Raid
win. for treasurer; Chas. Wilcox. for
auditor: D. ii. Case. for attorney, and
w. F. Kaae, for clerk.
On the other hand the Democrats
and Home Rulers, with little or no
organization, and with much party
dissension have placed in the field the
following fusion ticket composed OF
one Democrat and FIVE ex-Republicans:
T. B. Lyons, (DemocraD for sheriff;
Clement Crowell. for treasurer; d. H.
Kahaulelio. for auditor; j. M. Vivas.
for attorney, and Geo. Cummings for
clerk.
1t Is rumored that d. II. Kahaulelio.
who recently returned from Honolulu,
brought with him letter from the
Home Rule headquarters there, in
structing Maui Home Rulers to sup
port ]. w. Kalua for Sheriff. in place
of T. b. Lyons. This of course has
caused friction.
Ex-Judge ]. W. Kalua has declared
himself as an Independent Republican
candidate for county sheriff. So ire
fight is on between Saffery, Lyons and
Kalua. Republican politicians state
that Kalua will draw away many
more votes from Lyons than from SAT-
ferry.
The Republican candidates who have
recently returned from Nolokai report
that everything there seems favora pie
to them politically and that the differ
ence between the several Republican
clubs on Molokai has been settled with
the selection of J. II. Mahoe for deputy
sheriff and T. T. Meyer for supervisor.
In the different districts the state of
political affairs is as follows:
In Waikiki, the Republican candi-
date for supervisor, II. p. Baldwin, is
opposed by the fusion candidate, w.
H. Cornwell, and S. f. Keliinoi. Re-
publican candidate for deputy sheriff,
has against him, Tom. Clark, Demo-
crat.
In Lahaina, VIM. Henning, Repub-
lican candidate for supervisor has no
opposition. and C. r. Lindsay. Repuh-
lican candidate for deputy sheriff, has
for rival the known VIM. White.
In Hama, ]. Halualani, Republican
candidate for supervisor, is opposed by
! j. X. Hanuna, independent Republican
and F. Wittrock. Republican candidate
for deputy sheriff. has j. Fl. S. Knleo.
Independent Republican, for an oppo-
nent
In Makawao, since Geo. Groves and
p. n. Kahokuoluna have withdrawn,
Thos. NJ Church Republican canGi-
date for supervisor, has no opposition.
Edgar Morton, Republican candidate
for deputy sheriff. will make iunning
against w. z. X. Maikai, Independent
Republican.
On Molokai, Mahoe is opposed by F.
w. Beckley, Independent and T. T..
Meyer by Uahinui, Home Ruler.
REPUBLICAN SPLIT.
1t is to be noted that an independent
Republican party seems in process of
formation ON Maui and 1t is also
worthy of remark that the Republicans
are certain of at least two supervisors
out of the five.
on Tuesday night last the Republi-
can candidates, Messrs. Saffery, Bald
win. Wilcox, Case and Kaae. returned
to Lahaina after successful stump
! ing tour around Molokai. On Wednes-
I day night, reinforced by Hon. w. j.
/ Coelho. Edgar Morton. T. NJ. Church.
/ Manuel Daponte and others, they spoke
to large audience in the Hamakua-
poke native church.
On Thursday the same speakers
with the exception of Mr.. Case held
Z meetings at Pauwela in the morning
