ACHI PLOTS
AND SCHEMES

press Hustaee even after his own
nomination, with the idea that his
(Aehi 50 nomination is only to keep
his men in line and that at the crucial
time. just before the polling. he viii
withdraw in Hustaee's favor. When
the time comes he will forget to with
draw. however, and he hopes in this
way to land himself in the position Of
first authority in the county.
This NAV sound ridiculous to those
who minimize Aehi s strength, but from
more than one reputable source comes
evidence substantiating the plot as
above reported On the Koolau side,
for instance, the voters almost TO a man
are prepared to back Achi and follow
his lead. while among the fshnlarket
workers and the runners. along the wa
terfront are those who are accepting
wages from candidates in the open and
are secretly working up the Aehi sen
timent.
Tommy Cummins is of the idea that
he has the old road machine grinding
away in favor Of Hustace. who got him
his job. and Tommy is probably sincere
in thinking that he thinks right. Only
be has another think coming. Philips
Rivers Is the one who is doing the real
work among the road gangs and he is
for Aehi. while Rathburn. Just on the
payroll. is getting in some might swipes
for the hapapake whose lieutenant
he is.
It is said that Hustace is in great
disfavor with the Hawaiians. For the
past several months, ever since it be-
came evident that ambition was stir
ring around under his hatband. those
who are preparing to knife him have
been collecting material against him.
Every time he dropped remark against
. the Hawaiian race-and in his moments
of anger Hustace Is apt to say almost
anvfhing-the remark was duly noted
for future use; every time he stepped
on the corns of a Hawaiian, that was
recorded. and every time he put on the
brake and stopped some expenditure on
the board. that was noted as something
to use against him. Thus ii Is. so the
reports go. that although he NAV land
the nomination and have a majority Of
the Hawaiian delegates at the eonven-
ton in his favor, he viii be down and
out at the voting 50 far as the Ha-
waiians are concerned.

and the two of them are in with Cath
cart. Friends of Wise are trying to
persuade him from making the cam
paign, however. either as Achi s lent
enant or otherwise 1t IS repeatedly
pointed out to him that the hundred he
draws down now as easy money ought
to satisfy him and he had better keep
the bone and LET the shadow be grabbed
for by someone else. The party lead
ers have bunch that Jarrett viii beat
the man with the coat Of many coiors
and they want to get him out Of the
running. Even those who are on 10
Aehi 5 little game fear that Wise Is q
dead one politically.
There is some talk now of John Lane
coming out for sheriff, relinquishIng
what hopes he may harbor for the
mavoraltv in Hustace's favor. This is
regarded as a good political move, Lane
being a man whom many would get be

to beat Jarrett than Wise would, at any
rate.
Archer for Treasurer.
Archer is in earnest IN his desire TO
be the County Treasurer. He has been
chairman of the finance committee in
the present board and has dealt with
big figures-with Hustace's help-and
now he wants TO handle the actual
cash. In this he will also get Achi's
support and it is stated that he has
the support of Goodale and the Waia-
lua branch of the party. together with
some substantial local support. He is
willing 10 try conclusions with Trent,
at any rate.
Achi counts on his help. Oscar and
Andrew Cox are in the same game and
they are supposed TO be at work in the
Waialua district. while Archer is
working Eva for the combination. The
news that Cox signed the roll of the
La Dor party last week. given by the
Advertiser. which Achi promptly de-
MED, was in fact the tip that resulted
in the unmasking of Achi and His
bunch.

Studying Domestic Science


 From the far-away Montezumas comes Mime Guadalupe de Haro (who is proud of her Mexican nationality to New York to study household arts. By the course she is taking at the University of New York she will be fitted to follow pro- fesslon which was suggested to her by our American women. Finding herself help less by the death of her husband and being forced to earn her own livelihood, she accepted the offer made by the Mexi- can government to have her come to New York and make study of domestic sci- ence
 In an interview Nine de Haro says:
 q am enthusiastic over American wo- men," she said. "They are beautiful souled, intelligent active-and they have taught me that it is not a shame to work. Work with the head or the hand, and always with the full heart, is glo- rious The position that women hold here is wonderful and inspiring. I was here in convent school as a little girl, and again as a rich woman of leisure, when my husband was alive but now I find new side to American women. I have
 
 structors in many schools and institu- tions. 1 have seen them as trained nurses and as teachers of nurses. Everywhere they are glorious, supreme and womanly. We have our own domestic science, handed down through generations of peo- pies from the time of Cortez and Monte zuma, and I know something of European domestic science, but I think that noth- ing can be ahead of America's system the system you are teaching and practc- ing in your schools and homes.
 ''We have three classes in Mexico, and the work of our homes Is done mostly by the middle classes. They have many beautiful customs. ways of cooking and caring for the home. The Indians, who constitute the lower class, live humbly, but well. Their primitive way of making bread, for instance, is exactly like that practiced by the women of Pompeii. They grind the corn, make the loaves, and bake it all with earthen utensils and the result Is a pancake that is delicious be- yond anything that you can dream. Yet we think that modern ways of cooking should be taught them in the wonderful schools that Mexicao is everywhere spreading"

About Mosquitoes

So much has been said and written on the subject of the mosquito that it would seem there was very little more to be exploited. Yet, just at this season the mosouito Is a very formidable enemy and his punishment is a thing that every one is interested in. This has to do with the well-known variety of house, or rain barrel mosquito (culex pipiens).
 Most advice on this subject is rather serious; this is not, as the reader has probably already observed, or will later, and does not begin with the rain-barrel end of the proposition.
 AS matter of fact the rain barrel Is not the main point at all-but the house in which one lives. The observation Is made by 8 writer on this subject (and remember this article is not to be taken to hear), that only two people of real importance ever lived in rain-barrel namely Diogenes and Huckleberry Finn. Those living around rain barrels are vast ly in the majority, though not of as much importance as the aforementioned n- dividuals. However, let's hie ourselves to the 'Rambler's Directions of How to Get Rid of Mosquitoes"
 Observe the rules laid down:
 Always cover up the ice-water pitcher, or. better. do not use water at the table. Go to the faucet when thirsty.
 Never keep water in your sleeping room, either in a flower vase or the pitcher.
 Do not while washing, allow water to lie in the marble bowl-,ise running water.
 Carefully wipe off the nic6ei plumbing twice a day
 DO not water the lawn during hot weather.
 Never light a lamp or burn gas at night.
 Keen all doors and windows tightly closed-pipiens laugh at screens.
 Follow these few directions and the mosquito will be met at his most vulner- able points.

Be Careful With Tea

No more popular or palatable drink for summer consumption is known than iced tea. Few realize the importance of the care that should be taken with this drink Anne Rittenhouse, who is a we'll known writer on such subjects says:
 ''If you are drinker of iced tea be careful of the kind you imbibe.
 "Never touch 1t if 1t has been allowed to stand il. tin or granite or galvanized iron. This develops deadly poison. The tannin in the tea and metal produce a chemical that will make anybody des- perately i'll.
 If you prefer the kind of Iced tea that has been left to cool all day in the refrigerator, be sure that 1t has been poured into pitcher as soon as 1t was made. Better still, do not drink 1t at all unless it is freshly made, then poured over the ice and lemon in the glass while it is steaming hot.
 'This is genuine iced tea; more re- freshing and more palatable than any other kind.''

HADLEY TALKS ON
 THAT BIG OIL FINE

Denver, Col, August 2O.-The second annual meeting of the national organ ization of attorneys general opened at the state capitol here today with rep resentatives from over half the states or the Union present. Herbert s. Had ley of Missouri. president of the asso- ciation, made the opening address.
 The programme as arranged includes addresses by several attorneys general who have been prominent in the fight against corporations and dishonest mu- nicipal and state officials
 President Hadley, in the course of his address. referred indirectly to the $29,0o0.000 Standard oil fine. "The judge" said he, "who cannot see the Standard oil company of New Jersey in the Standard oil company of Indi- ana and who cannot see through both of the legal factions to the real own CTS and the real offenders, John D. Rockefeller. H. H. Rogers, John Archi- bald and others, is either blinded by prejudice or an unfortunate disposition to obscure the merits of a controversy by strained and irrelevant technical ities.
 'To assert that men may, by the objection of a puppet corporation, es- cape the proper measure of punishment for their wrong doing is to give to the legal faction of the corporation great CT rights. privileges and immunities than those which belong to natural persons.
 This case should serve as an impress sive argument as to the necessity of the national and state governments en- acting law to the effect that no judg- ment in criminal or civil case sh ould be reversed unless the court could af- firm upon the entire record that the Judgment was for the wrong party and but for the error complained of, a different judgment would have been recommended"

AMERICAN CAUGHT
 BY HONDURANS

Washington. August 20.-The arrest Of Lee Cannon, said to be an American citi- zen captured by the Honduran forces ir the department of Valle, is confirmed in a dispatch from Minister Dodge at Sal vador today. In communication to the state department he says that Consu! Alger, at Teguoigalpa, reported this ar rest to him, stating that Cannon would be brought to Tegucgalpa. Cannon was sent, however, to Choluteca for trial. but the minister had received no com, munication from him, and at the time of writing did not know whether he was en- titled to claim the rights of American citizenship. Cannon, he says, was chief of police at San Miguel, and, being under suspicion shortly before the outbreak of tse revolutionary movement in Honduras, was ordered to go to San Salvador on parole, but instead of doing so he fled to Honduras.

 To those who prefer down pillow to one made of clover blossoms or balsam, a nice suggestion is to scent the down with sachet or perfume. Among the best scents are orris root or violet. When the violet is used a pretty idea is to have the pillow embroidered in vioets also,
