PENNSYLVANIA.

According to the best advices here
the Republican machine in Pennsyl
vania will be overturned again this
next November and the Lincoln Repub-
lican and Democratic candidates elect
ed. The great political enigma is New
York state where, from all the best
advices one can get here it is a toss up
as to which party viii elect the gov
ernor and gain control of the state ad-
ministration.
There may be surprises in the state
elections farther to the west, in Colo
RADIO and Minnesota. for instance, the
governor who has been renominated,
but in the choice of local officials most
of the bitter fights are east of the Al
leghanies.
There continues to be lot of talk
about Democrats winning the next
House of Representatives 1t is con-
ceded to be q possibility, but the wise
old observers in Washington think it
quite improbable. All the tendencies
seem to be the other way. The only
real sign there has been came out of
the Oregon elections, where the two
Republicans were elected by greatly re-
duced majorities, but there were local
troubles in Oregon, sufficient to have
wrecked almost any party except the
Republican party.
LABOR DISAFFECTION.
The Democrats are pinning their
faith to the disaffection of the lator
vote and in fact are announcing that
their two chief issues will be tariff re-
vision and labor. There are few evi-
aences yet that the country is much
stirred up about tariff revision, al
though there is undoubtedly quite a
feeling that some of the schedules

FAIRCHILD HAS
HARD ROW TO
HOE ON KAUAI
Path to Senate for Him Is Bestrewed With
Rocks---Senator Lane on Oahu Making
His Mark as Leader.

And Kauai is to have political COM
plications of it's own. Manager Fair
child has risen to attack the claim of
Senator Knadsen to the senatorship
from the Garden Isle and the people do
not propose to stand it. Eric has
friends galore on the island and they
want to see that he is returned to the
Senate. At least this is said to be the
feeling down in his baliwick.
FAIRCHILD OR KNUDSEN.
Fairchild is a man of plantations ex-
elusively; Knudsen is man of means
generally and the people on the island
prefer the man who has a smattering
of diversified interests to one who has
his eggs in one basket. This is particu-
larly the case where the handwriting on
the wall indicates a breaking of the
is TO launch himself on the political
sea it is asked why he does not try it
first on smaller waterway. For in
stance, when Knudsen went into poll
tics he began in the House and won his
spurs. Now he proposes to enter the
Senate for another record. Very Welt
is a place that falls to the average
plantation manager: chairman of a road
board, not a political place, except in
the old days when it was made SO dur
ing the career of the Republic and
cumulative voting As Fairchild has
not distinguished himself, particularly,
unless it be in the handling of the
Molokans, it seems that he should be
satisfied to begin below the line of
Senator.
But that is not the only reason why
some of the people of Kauai are willing
to turn down Candidate Fairehild.
There is little matter of leases for
the Kealia Plantation Co. which will
expire during the term of Mr.. Fair
child. should he be elected Senator, and
the voters feel that he should not be
on hand to act upon them. OF course,
this may be only in imagination, that
he would be influenced in his action in
considering the matter of renewals
when it is brought before a committee.
Fairchild' g friends would say 1T would
not Some of them believe he would go
back to Kauai, or out to Waikiki, While
the case was up for consideration. But
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1906-08-20
his enemies say they believe he would
stand pat and demand renewals.
NO ROAD BUILDING.


NO ROAD BUILDING.
These are some of the reasons why
the people of Kauai do not want to SEE
Fairchild take the place knudser
seeks in the Senate. Another one is
because of the anxiety of Col. Spald
ing to have him get there. The
Colonel, just now, seems to be buckine
the Territorial tax authorities on the
one hand and the county of Kauai on
Sugar Co., he disputed the assessment
of the tax officials and has refused to
pay either income or property tax for
eighteen months. The usual suit fol
lowed after the loss of the case before
the appeal board. Again the planta-
tion lost, The matter has been whip
saving about in the interval and yet
no payment has been made. Of the
amount, something like eighteen thou-
sand dollars, half goes to the county
when the Colonel decides to pay it.
The nine thousand dollars are needed
by the county. The absence of the
sum, or the fact of the money being
locked up in the vault of the planta-
tion, has caused the Kauai supervisors
to stop work on the roads and no i'm
provements are being made at this
time. The county needs the money and
wants it but there seems to be no way
of getting it until the Colonel is willing
to loosen.
Down ON Kauai the rains come in
punches about December and if the
roads are not put in shape now they
will be impossible when the rainy sea-
son sets in. The belief is that the
county will be a-begging for the
money from now until after election
and if Fairehild happens by any freak
to go to the Senate they will be beg
ging for it until the time the leases
expire For why2 Because it will be
a menace to the people of Kauai if the
Colonel should hold up that amount in
bank notes and remark that planta-
tion is pretty good provider; without
it you will have no roads and then he
might say something about the advisa-
bility of renewals. Of course the peo-
pie of Kauai say this is a possibility
but it may never become a reality. 1t
is probable that Colonel Spalding is
holding back the money now, while the
county is so much in need of it, merely

The Wanderers Return
BY B VI J.

II wa, their last night at the old
farm. Tomorrow they must move
out-out Of the house that had been
their home since their wedding day,
and let >trangers take possession of
the dear old rooms all filed with
haunting memories of happy past.
No wonder they were sad, these two
old people who sat with bowed heads
snd ..asped hands by hearth soon
70 Auow them no more
They were silent, both thinking of
the -ame thing, their adopted son,
their Maynard boy, Allen, whom they
had taken when a child to raise rs
their own son. He had been the
7 idol Of their hearts and both thought
Allen would stay on the old farm
when he grew up and cultivate the
land that they loved.
But Allen Gordon thought differ
ent He was ambitious, he longed
for a wider field where he could de.
ycIop his mind and broaden his ideas.
He had an artistic temperament. 4
beautiful sunset, picturesque land
scape often brought tears to the boys
eye, and a longing in his heart which
he could not interpret.
Tie stayed with them until he was
twenty, then one day the mail wagon
stopped before the farmhouse door
while a slender delicate looking youth
climbed upon the seat trying yainly
to force back the tears that would
come as he waved farewell to the man
and woman standing together under
the old cedar tree
And so Allen Gordon went to the
city tceming with whirlpools of temp
tatons To seek, he scarcely knew
what. And the years rolled by one
by one until FIVE had linked them
selves with the endless chain of those
forever departed. Allen wrote often
to the old folks until suddenly his
letters ceased aud they could hear
nothing of their boy.
At last their anxiety grew unbear-
able and Mr.. Gordon to ease his own
anxiety and satisfy his his wife went
to the distant city to see what had
happened to keep Allen from writing.
There a terrible revelation awaited
the old man Allen had been work
ing in bank until one morning he
left the city taking a large sum of
money with him. And that was the
last they heard of the boy they had
taken to raise.
Some years before Mr.. Gordon had
mortgaged the farm, pressing need
of money forcing him to do SO. The
mortgage had been foreclosed, the
house was sold and the old people
sit in silent grief passing their last
night at the old home.
How quiet the old rooms seem. II

night wind signs through the closed
shutters, a requiem for hopes depart
ed, hopes they had had for Allen,
their Maynard boy.

ing silence is broken, a step sounds
on the walk, quick elastic step that
strikes a vibrating string in their
hearts as they listen The door is
flung open and man in black pauses

wanderer to her. All the grief he
had caused her is forgotten.
