THROW ACHi?

with his friend Lucas out of the run

| find a place to alight in the event that
his enemies capture the Supervisors
| and so get the appointment of Road
| Supervisor away from him.
Sam, however is coy about jumping
| into the sea before he knows Just how
deep the water is. Maybe he will try
and mend the hole in his fences where
Jack Lucas got through before he turns
his attention to anything else. By the
way, it is said that Achi tried to make
| second hole in Sans corral fence by
offering the Road Supervisorship to
Tommy Cummins. in the event that
| that gentleman would abandon Harris
and work for Achi for Supervisor-at-
Large but Cummins was loyal and put
the tempter behind him
The Lane Sunday school class. of
course, would like to land Nigaran
Fernandez in the Board from the Fifth
District, and if the thing is left to the
Fifth they may succeed in doing it.
Also. Jim Quinn still has hopes, al
though Charlie Coster has lately re-
fused to compromise" with Brother
Jim on any basis that would cause
Coster to get in behind his foe. But
neither Nigaran Fernandez nor Brother
Jim has a lot of love for Sam Johnson.
TALK OF HUSTACE.
Another candidate for Supervisor in
the room of Lucas mentioned about
town yesterday was Charlie Hustace.
Chairman of the Republican County
Central Committee. Charlie is a good
man, and would be representative of
the business interests. but it would
take lot of sedative medicine to hold
him down for a period of two years
Sedatives are going to be expensive,
this year, too.
The Board of Supervisors is not a
thing that the Republicans can afford
TO monkey with very much, because
Democrat Moore is still in the ring and
it is said would proba bly, slip in if
weak sister We're put on the ticket
Anyway he would try. Indeed, more
than Democrat Moore may Slip in this
year, if the cards fall just right.
For instance, there's Co onel Iaukea,
who is playing his hand pretty close
to the table right along. and studying
that part of the County Act which
treats of the office of Sheriff If it is
either Brown or Crabbe, Curtis cher |
ishes we'll grounded belief that it will |
be neither.
DOUTHITT MAY RUN.
And a new development is said to be
that Eddie Douthitt is not SO much
out of the running for County Attorney
as he has been thought TO be. In fact,
there are rumors that County Attor-
ney Douthitt would be perfectly will
ing to succeed himself. And, if he would,
why, it only remains for Frank An
drade to go back and sit down in the
Legislature, where he would be most
useful. Mr.. Andrade has done good
work there and can do it again. He
is needed, in fact, as chairman of the
judiciary Committee, and his expert
ence makes I'm one OF the most valu-
able men that the people could send
to represent them.
The Portuguese Republicans are de-
manding that Antoine Perry be given
a legislative nomination this year. but
if Perry is not named then they would
accept the nomination of NJ. a. Silva
and let it go at that.
FAIRCHILD ASPIRES
The Garden Island prints this bit of
political news:
Mr.. Geo. Fairchild has announced
his willingness to serve Kauai in the
capacity of Senator for the Sixth Rep
District at the next session
of the Legislature 81
He thinks that it is possible that

Knudsen, who also has come out as a Il
candidate for the same honors, would
serve the island better by going to the
House. 1t is said that the Oahu people
would like this arrangement; another
question is it whether the Kauai peo-
pie would fancy it. Honolulu wishes
and the interests of the outside is
lands very seldom run in the same
channel" Il
Mr. Fairchild will not get the Molo-
kan vote. of course, but that will not /
cut much ice He can get away with
Ill the Molokans that come, one down
another come on. Il
The Danes are different, and if Mr..
T<nudsen has made up his mind to go
o the Senate, Mr.. Fairchild would as
Veil turn his ambition to some other :
direction. Fer what Knudsen, Gays,
goes, on Kauai-and the result of the ,
light for the Speakership in the last {
House would indicate that it also goes 6
| good deal farther.
BALDWIN NOT IN IT. tS
Mr. H. P. Baldwin has disappointed {
lis Maui friends by refusing to con-
ider the Delegateship. That takes
cry formidable fear out of the heart
f Kuhio-but that gentleman is not :
ue to get a-many nights of peaceful 9
lumber nowadays. For, though Bald
vim will not run, there is still Alex
robertson to be considered; and there
re some other persons, moreover, who -
rould not hesitate long in making the N
ace. For instance. there is Senator n

rould make strong run for Delegate

He is a good man. But he would Il
