Il think that the method of cam
paigning used by Link McCandless,
by promising things which he will
never be able to fulfill, is most repre-
hensible. He knows very well that
neither he nor anyone else would be
able to carry out these promises. I
have done as much as anyone in this
Territory to have the lands of the
Government given to the people, but
| would never stultify myself with
the kind of promises which Link is
making today.
The interests of Hawaii lie in the
success of the Republican party, and
that means not only the election of
Kuhio by handsome majority, but
also the election of our Legislative
and Supervisorial tickets. l have
never known the people of Hawaii to
go backwards. and Hawaii to many
of us, especially those of us who
were born here and were brought up
here, is Il country that we are proud
of. and whose success means our own
individual success. We want to
prove to the world at large. and par
ticularly to the rest of the United
States, that we are capable of gov
erning ourselves. The success which
our fathers made before us should be
succeeded by our own success.

men had missed leads, Moran took
the aggressive and did all the work,
with rights and lefts to the head.
Hanlon seemed powerless and only
stalled. There were frequent clinch-
es. The second was a repetition of
the first, Moran shooting straight
lefts to the head and whipping the
right to the body at will, with Han
lon stalling.
Moran hammered Hanlon all
around the ring in the third. Hanlon
seemed to be dazed. He opened the
fourth with three good leads for the
jaw, and everybody cheered. Moran
rushed him to the ropes with body
blows and near the finish was rock
ing his head.
Hanlon Took Chances
From this round on to the tenth
Hanlon fought harder. Apparently
he realized that the Britisher did not
have terrific punch and took many
chances. His favorite pastime was
to rush Moran around the ring and
swinging both hands for the body,
but while he did this the Englishman
kept busy measuring him with his
left and landing with his right.
From the tenth to the Fifteenth
Moran gradually beat Hanlon down.
He was strong all the time and APP
parently did not take any chances.
He fought his man from a distance,
showing plainly that he was fearful
lest Hanlon come in with a hay-mak-
Ell that would do some damage. Mo-
ran preferred to chop away with his
left and use his right whenever he
saw chance for an opening.
Thrives on Punishment
Strange to say, Hanlon seemed to
be gifted with new lease of life
along about the fifteenth, and, though
several of Moran's blows staggered
him, he fought all the harder. Ev-
cry cry from the gallery spurred him
on, and after his head wobbled from
the force of punch he invariably
rushed In and took a chance.
The thirteenth was one of the
best rounds for Hanlon. After Mo.
ran had rocked him with rights and
lefts to the jaw at the opening, Han
lon dashed out for the body and made

During the balance of the round he
fought strongly, but Moran soon be-
came wise to his tactics, realizing
that It was but the hopeless squirt OF
Il defeated man.
After the sixteenth Hanlon was
through. He had saved the bets OF
his friends and was satisfied with
that. He did not fight like a man
who hoped to win, but rather like one
who was just logged and game
enough to go through with the gan

Moran was not to be caught nap

throughout. and although he was
aggressive enough he managed to 60

opponent as at all dangerous he
danced around and jabbed at long
range. Hanlon's face was covered

HanI0n Beaten Easily

The Call has to say of the Moran
Hanlon bout: Outpointed, outgener-
aled, and outfought at every stage of
the 20-round mill in the Coliseum
last night, Eddie Hanlon stayed
gamely to the end against Owen Mo-
ran, the British featherweight cham
pion, and, although he lost the de-
cision by a city block. he won the
plaudits of the spectators for his ex-
hibition of pluck. There was never
minute during which he appeared
to have the ghost OF a chance. and
had Moran been possessed of a knock
out punch the fans would have been
on their way ere the tenth round.
Not In many a day has any fighter
taken such a continuous, merciless
drubbing as Hanlon received. Both
of Moran's busy hands kept playing a
tattoo upon his head and body round
after round, until the crowd wonder
ed how he managed to weather the
storm. But though he was tagged at
times, he seemed to grow stronger as
the finish neared.
Moran's on Points
As regards points. more uneven
| fight has not been seen here in many
a moon. The Britisher was the ag-
gressor. the ring general, and the
master of ceremonies combined. Many
thought that he stalled near the I'm
ish when he saw that victory was
within his grasp, but apparently he
was doing the best he could to slip
the pill of sleep to the native son.
The opinion of the spectators may
be summed up in sentence: Moran
was a disappointment and Hanlon Il
surprise. Nearly every one of the
wise members was there with bet
that the Britisher would crush the
local lad ere the seventeenth round
was at hand. They were mistaken.
Hanlon may have been nearly in, but
his gameness carried him through.
Lacks Knockout Punch

means of transport in her rivers and

among the masses, lack of enterprise
and of capital on the part of her

the development of her agriculture.
The soil is merely scratched by light
