MAUI QUIET
: IN POLITICS

Hawaiian village AT f1ohohahoV "N
in the morning continued their run
away tour. but were arrested at kama
kuloa Monday noon and taken by the
police back to their ship. Deputy COL
lector w. o. Aiken is also commissioner
of immigration, and in that capacity
having been informed of the facts by
the captain of the Fort George, ne
communicated with Sheriff Saffery,
who had the men arrested at hahaRu-
loa. The runaways were all foreigners
two Australians, one FTenchman and
enc German, and as such are not al
lowed to land on American soil with
out certain formalities.
POLITICAL QUIETUDE.
Politics il still in quiescent state
on Maui. Not long ago a representa-
tive of the Republican sub-executive
committee toured the county and on
his return reported that the party vot-
ers of the various sections generally
seemed satisfied with their present
county and legislative officers, and
hence he recommended that the whole
slate be renomnated for the November
elections.
There is a gentle complaint from
Waikiki Home Rule circles that Su-
pervsor II. NJ. Church too often turns
down propositions introduced at board
meetings by Supervisor w. Fl. Corn
well. All this, of course, is a natural
consequence of party differences, Mr.
Church representing the Republicans
and Mr.. Cornwell the Home Rule
Democratic party. Mr.. Church, how
ever, is very popular in Makawao dis
trict on account of his wise and busi-
nesslike course of action as a Super
visor. and will easily be re-electel next
November If he cares to accept a re-
nomination. Mr.. Cornwell seemingly
is also popular with his party, for it Is
reported that the Home Rulers Of Maui
intend to nominate him for Senator T.
b. Lyons to run in Cornwell's place for
Supervisor from Wailuku.
Saturday afternoon the 9th Precinct
Republican Club held meeting at Ma
kawao postoffice and appointed a COM
mittee of three to obtain new rolls of
members in the different sections-one
for Makawao, a second for Waiakoa
and third for Keokea. The 10th Pre-
cinct Republican Club will soon hold
a meeting for a re-enrollment of MEM
bers and on the same occasion listen
to an address by Hon. John Kalino on
recent legislative doings. Mr.. kalno
during this last week attended the
meeting of the Hawaiian Evangelical
Association in Honolulu.
Another good Republican candidate
for Senator is being mentioned-R. A.
Wadsworth of Wailuku. but his bus-
ness interests may prevent any con-
cidnra pf the mnttar nv him
REVIVAL OF RACING.
The Maui Racing Association, so II
is stated, is taking on a new lease OF
life, and will soon renew, so 1t ic hoped
the palmy days of 10 or 20 years ago
when the racing stables of Cummings
Gay, Cornwell, Fred Horner, Ballan-
tine and others used to render Spreck-
els Park so attractive on the great ma
tional holidays af the past. Quite a
number of prominent men have recent.
ly been elected as members of the or
ganization and the future of racing OF
the island is looking bright.
l.. Won Tempsky, a member both OF
the association and the MakawaO PUlc
Club, is trying to arrange a most in
teresting event for the Fourth, polo
pony race between some of the fast
island horses The best animals in tn,
county have been bred in California
on Kauai, on Hawaii, or on Maui It,
self. Now il the fastest representa-
tives of these different regions can b.
entered for the proposed contest th'
event will be most exciting, for Mau
owns quite a number of ''crackerjack'
ponies. OF course, the race will be {
half-mile dash, for a $50 cup, each ami
NAL to be a bona fide polo horse and t
carry $50 pounds, there being no stipu
iauon whatever as to whether III
owner shall either enter or ride hi
pony.
