Diphtheria on Maui
There Is no longer any doubt now
as to the presence Of diphtheria In
Waikiki and Puunene. Some time
last month Chinese lad died from
what is supposed to have been diph.

nation of the bacilli in Honolulu did
not show the presence of the diphthe.
ria germs and so was pronounced not
diphtheria at all. Yesterday a broth
er Of the same Chinese lad who died
last month was taken sick and the
Government physician has pronounced
II diphtheria. There Is also another
case In this town, and there Is report.
cd one case at Puunene. The infect.
ed houses In Waikiki have been plac.
ed under strict quarantine. Owing to
the prevalence of whooping cough
among some Of the school children at
the Wailuku public school. that public
institution has been closed for several
weeks by order Of the Government
physician.
Celebrate Victory
Three memmoth luaus have been
given on Maui during this month by
the Republican party to commemorate
Its victory ut the polls on election day.
The first one was given ut Lahaina on
the 10th inst. Waikiki gave one at
the Waikiki Armory on Saturday. the
17tn inst. and was attended by nearly
L thousand people. The luau commit.
tee consisted OF W. T. Robinson, c. b.
Wells, c. ID. Lufkin. s. Keliinoi, w. L.
Bal and d. II. Davis. The doors were
thrown open at 2 o'clock sharp, and
the feast lasted until 9 o'clock. Dane.
Ing followed the luau. About $3.50
was subscribed by the Waikiki Re-
publicans for this luau. and, consider.
ing the fact that nearly a thousand
people were fed and still two barrels
of poi and large amount of kaluaed
pork were left over. yet a luau on a
similar scale, II given in former times
would have cost over $500. Last Sat.
urday the Hamakuapoko Republicans
followed the wake of the Lahaina and
Waikiki Republicans and monster
luau was given In one OF the ware.
houses. where hundreds OF people.
Home Rulers, Democrats and Repub.
leans, were entertained In a style
seldom seen there. Manager II. A.
Baldwin personally superlntended the
luau and he saw to II that even the
dainty native dishes were provided
for ut all the tables. The absence of
strong liquor at all these luaus was
most favorably commented upon by
eminent citizens, for, were the Home
Rulers and Democrats as well.to-do as
the Republicans. and could afford to
provide spirituous liquors at their
luaus, fifty-three gallons Of wine would
be too small. Fifty times that amount
would be something like Home Rule
luau II they could pay for II. but the
Republicans tried to reach the reason
and the inner soul OF the Hawaiian
voters with straight, sensible Repub.
iican talk rather than by saturating
their system with hogsheads of gin
and whisky to benumb their senses,
and thus steal away their votes. The
Republican party could have flooded
Waikiki streets with gin. but the
leaders being men of the highest In
tegrity and honor, they would not con-
descend to such low, dishonorable tao
tics, but no one would vouch as to
what the opposition would have done
had they the same ready command OF
wealth behind them.
