WALLACE GIBES
PLEASING To ACHI
Enjoys Roasting Given Cupid ct
Al.--.P0liticians Handing
Bouquets Around.

One of the most tickled men in Ho-
nolulu at the roasting that was handed
out to Delegate Kalanianaole, and Sen
ators Chillingworth and Lane on Sat
urday night from the platform in Aala
park by J. Lor Wallach is Charley
Aehi. He was bubbling over with joy
all day Sunday and yesterday at the
way the female rock specialist rounded
on the leaders of that wing of Re-
publicanism which had taken the Wal
ZACH matter out of Notley's hands and
secured a favorable vote from the
Board of Health.
Achi has taken no part in the Wal
ZACH mess. He says himself it is be-
| cause it is cardinal principle with
him to studiously avoid bringing the
question of leprosy into politics. Others
of the politicians say Achi has taken
no part because he wasn't asked to
and because they wouldn't let him,
but whatever the reason may be he
has kept out.
"And what good have Cupid and
Chillingworth and Lane and those fell
lows got out OF it?'' asked Aehi yes
terday. Here they have been tag
giag around after Wallaeh and working
him so that the Hawaiians viii swing
around to them, and now Wallach goes
and dumps the whole bunch You should
have heard him Saturday night. 1t
was great.
'fFor myself, have never believed
that that Wallach could do any good
At no time have I ever made any such
| promises to the Hawaiians as Lane
| and Chillingworth have. telling them
on the stump that they would go into
the Legislature and vote to stop send
ing people to Molokai. | knew that
such promises could not be kept and
consequently / never asked for votes
on such grounds. Whenever I propose
something, some line of policy, I always
see before I speak, that it is possible.
Some of the things l have advocated
have been the cause of blame being
given me. but no one has ever said that
I have promised to do anything that
could not be done, like those fellows
are doing
In the meanwhile, in his own little
circle. the Achi boom for Mayor Is
swirling and every day the labor leader
sees himself nearer the goal of his
great ambition. Three or four times a
week meetings are held in his house
among the faithful, called in great
secrecy and attended by STEALTH. the
mystery which surrounds them being
necessary to get the boys in line for
an organization of the Fifth. So far
none of the enthusiasm for Aehi has
been allowed to escape the Fourth nor
verv far into the Fifth, being bottled
up carefully around S84 North KING
street. Anyone who thinks that Achl
aorees with the statements made that
he is has-been is reckoning without
his host.
NO ALLIANCE WITH ACHL
The report that the Chillingworth-
Lane faction has made an overture OF
friendship to Achi, delegating John
Wise to bear the olive branch, IL
denied Indignantly by the members OF
that portion of the Republican party
which gathers on Kaahumanu street.
"Ally ourselves with eAchi?' said
Chfllingworth. Never in a thousand
wears. We would rather be beaten
with good men on our ticket than win
by the help of the Aehi crowd. We
think 1t is time now for the young Ha-
waifans to put up their best men for
office. men in whom the business ele-
ment of the community can have con-
fidenee and whom they can support,
not Hawaiians wAose names are view
ed with suspscioa gand in whose support
we cannot sp st the decent element
to come.
ct an, not running for anything at
this eIectfyn, but am working to see
that the Republican ticket is one for
which we viii have nothing to hide
and of which we can truthfully say
that 1t contains the names of good,
trustworthy men,"
DEMOCRATS RESTING EASY.
whipper-in Harry Mossman, of the
Democratic party, smiles when the
question of politics comes up. To
save the party in the eyes of those who
can be led by wallachism he has TAX
