THE CAMPA
Frankly Regrets Defeat, but
the Land Issue Is Still
a Live One.

EET hoped to win, and / am frank tx

l.. McCandless yesterday. "But aside
from The fact that I did not win there
are number of things that are q
source of satisfaction to me in the

fFThe important thing in the cam
paign just closed, however, is that the
Democre tic party introduced real issues
in the campaign and fought the cam
paign on those issues. The land issue
was the prominent, though not the only
one. in the fight for The delegateship
and though / was defeated, the issue
was made and was not defeated. The
He1aiLhcans admitted the correctness
of the Democratic position when it lmi.

the interests of the plantations any

TISERS WANT
WAIALUA BLOOD
Rampant Runners Repeat Re-
suIt---WiII Render Rati0nS
for Restless TiSerS.

Politics are done with and now there
is chance for some sport. The 'Tisers
are getting very sassy and feel the
effect of political prunes. They are in
fact rampant and want to do some
thing.
The Eva bunch do not feel like TAX
ing them on, so far as can be aseer-
tanned, so old man Boisse states that
his peerless aggregation must do some
thing soon or bust.
Jim Williams came out of the dark
room the other afternoon and took hold
of the jingler by the coat sleeve
'FSay," he said, "what's the matter
with a return match with that awful
Waialua bunch7'' The jingler rubbed
his arm and said, Nothing"
Word went round the printing ma,
chimes and all the other Machinarum
foo-foo, - and the reply came back very
decidedly. ''We will play Waialua
again and we will beat the .stuffing out
of them
This is no idle boast. Everybody
knows about the sad events that hap
pened in the neighborhood of Haleiwa
few weeks ago. The whitewash bar
rel was stolen from the freight car and
the willy burglars of Waialua put it all
over the innocent 'Tisers.
There is an account to be wiped out
and it is going to be wiped out. The
'Tisers challenge the weary Waialuas
to another game and will guarantee to
remove the taint that has been sploged
all over their escutcheon.
Out there where the meanings of the
tireless waves are heard on the wind
swept diamond, where the whitewash
tub is broken open and the insouciant
visitors are rolled all over the field,
there will be another baseball game.
1t will be a game such as we never
saw before. A tireless and intrepid
gang of 'Tisers will descend on the
field of Waialua and wipe the earth
with the sassy sons of the plantation.
Yes, election time is passed and the
'Tisers are rampant. Look out now
you Waialua chiefs. Before you know
what has happened the terrible Tisers
will be rushing like wolves on the fold,
or words to that effect, and there will
be no more Waialua baseball team.
A special iron-bound freight car has
been constructed. In that car there
will be a dynamite proof safe and in
that safe there will be tub of white
wash. Guarded by a squad of husky
and armed 'Tisers, that tub will be
carried aloft to the Waialua field and
there spilled all over everything.

CHAMPIONSHIP
DECIDED TODAY

The tennis doubles championship will
be decided this afternoon on the Bere-
tania courts. Cunha and Warren, the
winners of the late series, viii go up

the holders of the championship for

Both teams are very anxious to win
and have been practising assiduously.
There win be great exhibition of
tennis when they get together, and the

The chief jingler viii be there ac-
companied by a small army of minor
poets and, surrounded by his army of
protection, will root for the winning
'Tisers.

dress of the mere manager is "Old

Nothing has been heard of the News

dead or only sleeping9 The Bulletin

Let US hear from the Bulletin. So far
