SATURDAY AFTERNOON
AMONG POLITICIANS

Those who have taught the voters
here to scratch their tickets will be
sorry for it at the coming election. It
has been preached to them that they
should vote for the best men and not
for any party's nominees and they win
remember the lesson, but the best men,
TO them, will be the men who are best
to them and not perhaps the best men
for the country
This was the sentiment expressed
Saturday by Senator John c. Lane.
who has commenced this early in the
campaign to preach the virtue of vot-
ing the ticket. the whole ticket and
nothing but the ticket.
The only way to have this country
properly governed is on straight partv
lines" he continued. In other places
you may be able to get good results
by advocating the scratched ticket, but
not in Hawaii. Such organizations as

scene recalled to many those lovely
Hawaiian days when royalty ruled.
The young men were noticeable, also,
as they carried their ladies' colors,
such as the lima, forget-me-not, lehua
and carnation leis, interviewer with
the sweet MALE, around their necks

that Charley Achi had called a meet

and slate had been evolved. The re-

at his office nor in his accustomed

in one form or the other to the amount
of $203. 303.0S last year, or nearly $4,000

as follows: Waimea, 71,12o.15; Koloa,
$37, O5S.5O; Lihue, $42,922.S9; Hawai-
hau. 500, 900. 33; Hanalei, $94o3.21; total,
$685. SOLOS
In addition to this sum the amount
of $12, 721. SO was collected in Honolulu
for income taxes paid by Kauai cor
porations, making grand total of
1896, 223.06.
Besides these amounts the Kauai Tax
Assessor has also collected $19,802 in
road taxes within the county and placed
them on special deposit for the road
districts as distributed below: Niihau,

GAMBLING RAID.

The police hauled in a few gamblers
again last Sunday. There were four
of them and they were caught here in
Lihue. Three of them put up SIS bail
to be forfeited but the fourth, who
probably had been cleaned out by his
fellow sinners, had nothing of value
about his person at the time of arrest.
He was let go on the promise of turn
ing up in court the next morning, a
thing which he, of course, failed to
do. A bench warrant made him pro
duce the v and an extra dollar.

CEMETERY QUESTION.

Complaint is being made in regard
to the installation of a Japanese ceme-
terry at Hanalei within the confines of
the village and in close proximity to
residences, the Garden Island says. This
menacing condition is farther aggravat-
ed by the fact that the whole region
is low-lying, sandy and undertake with
water near the surface, and that it is
more or less the custom of the village
people to secure their domestic water
from shallow wells. Such condition
of things is a standing menace to the
community.
Unfortunate cemetery locations have
come down to us from the past, the
days of ignorance of our fathers, but
they have become vested interests, pro-
tected by hallowed associations and
sensitive feelings, so that it is very
difficult to make any change.
But It is different thing in these
enlightened days to establish new
cemetery, and one likely to be largely
used, where it will be a standing men
ace to the community, and especially
too bad to faint the pure air of Ha-
naiei in such a way.
