MAUI POLITICS
CALL FOR PROTEST $
Supporter Of Baldwin Is
Excited Over Wells,
Case & Co.

Editor Evening bulletin
The primary nominations held here
last evening in the 5th precinct, at
Waikiki. Maui, for delegates to the
Territorial, District and County con.
ventions. was carried on successfully
by the Wells. Case 4 Co. machine"
under the banner of reform. much to
the disgust Of citizens who ever have
honest and clean politics at heart
Nominations were made by Wells.
Case & Co. In writing, placed upon the
desk OF the chairman and not read to
those present till after s O'Clock p. m,
when the nominations had closed, thus
Independent, honest, clean and con.
sentative citizens and voters were
side.tracked and those who are the
thrust upon the voters and Republican
party. That voters and party men
should be called upon to elect men OF
questionable character and who are
much less lat least some of them"
than a staggering and vulgar lot of
frauds, simply to aid and assist Wells,
Case Il Co. to ventilate their spleen
and vengeance against II. p. Baldwin
for some real or fancied grievance, Is
an outrage and an insult to public In
telligence and honor. There are no
end Of Lessons" to these tactics. II
Wells, Case & Co. thus propose re.
form and they are to find moral sup.
port, 1t should at least proceed from
men OF clean, honest ana dislnterested
purposes.
II will not do for few men OF the
Wells, Case Il Co. type to work up a
pretended reform" movement and try
TO give II character by putting a lot
OF misguided candidates before the
public as their sponsors and prophets,
likewise II will not do to thrust upon
the Republican party a group Of
Qnacks, pretenders and self seekers Of
the Wells. Case 4 Co. type. The Re.
publican party Is not edited, nor It's
support won by such material as can.
didates to a convention nor by such
machine tactics.
All the serfs. sponsors and proph.
cts Of Wells, Case & Co. nominated
last night lack honesty Of motive.
there Is not one among them who
either directly or indirectly has not
an axe to grind or grievance, how.
ever slight. against II. p. Baldwin,
thus the welfare and progress Of the
Republican party Is sacrificed to sat,
lsfy the within Of these pretenders Of
reform.

Baseball and Boxing
Will Be Sports =
For Tars

The amount of sport planned for
the time when the Fleet will be In
port here Is small compared with
what was held during the stay of the
Atlantic Fleet. 1t will be confined
practically to baseball and boxing.
The baseball will be between teams
from the various ships playing
amongst themselves. and between
teams from the ships and from the
local leagues.
The Honolulu Baseball League Is
the first to take up officially anything
In the nature Of cooperation with the
Fleet athletic officer, Flag Lieutenant
Protect Of the U. s. S. West Virginia,
In the arrangement Of baseball games.
Games In the regular schedule OF the
Fleet had been planned during the
run down here from the Coast. and
these will be held, probably every
afternoon. at Aala Park. But the
plans of the local league can be made
to ft In with these original plans
WY well, oo tudt thcy Will uOt iutcT-
fere In the least. and so that the
games at Baseball Park during the
time the cruisers remain In port can
be always with the tars piling up
one side of the score.
Boxing Is not exactly In the same
boat. as II is probable that the plans
which were made some time ago for
carrying out In Honolulu by the men
OF the Fleet will be changed some
what to fit In with those of the local
promoters. The shows which Paddy
Ryan and Jack Scully are going ia
give will In all probability attract
the talent of the Fleet, and pictur-
esQue II not very broadly outlined
plans Of holding bouts on the docks
for purses to be put up by the sailors
out of their pockets, will probably
not stand the strain Of an attractive
place for the bouts. Il well-planned
house. and something which has the
real smack Of the boxing game about
| It.
In fact, baseball every day and
boxing Saturday evening and Mon
day afternoon will probably about
complete the round of sports for this
first stay of the Pacific Fleet In port
