Liberals Issue Manifesto.
London. Dec. 2.-The National Lib
eral Federation late last night issued
a manifesto to the country, which may
be regarded as party rallying call
for the elections. Il concentrates at
tention entirely on the constitutional
struggle between the house of lords
and the house of commons. The mani
festo says:
IF the present action OF the peers IS
not repudiated swiftly by the people,
the rights and privileges won so dearly
by our forefathers in the great strug-
giles for freedom are all surrendered"
The manifesto declares the peers
power OF veto must be restricted. so
that the last word on legislation and
finance will rest with the house of
commons. Otherwise, it says. no lib
eral ministry again can assume the
responsibilities of office.
Fight Il Forced.
"In the fight forced upon us" the
manifesto continues. the electors will
have TO decide whether they wish to
govern themselves or be governed by
second hand by a few hundred heredi-
tary peers, who have thrown the con
stitution into the melting pot in order
TO shift the burden Of taxation from
wealth. land and liquor to food and

Of
THE WALKERS

Entries for the fat mans and We
terans' walking races will be received
at the offices of the local newspapers
until tomorrow night, after which no
entries will be accepted. The condi-
ton in the heavyweight race is 210
pounds and in the veterans event sixty
years.
Sullivanfi Kaoo and Ayres are all prac-
Using hard and the championship will
be fought out by these three walk
ers.
Sullivan is the youngest of the trio
and possesses remarkable endurance
and a very fair turn of speed. 1t is
extremely likely that he will lower
the record for the course of 1924,
held by himself, next Sunday. Some
time ago he made a statement that he
expected to cover the distance in as
least 14:25, and if he can do this the
race must be conceded to him. 1t
will be pretty tall walking, however.
Kaoo is improving under the train
ing of Ayres and is walking fairly and
suuarely and with rare turn OF
speed. In last Sundays race he got
no use out of his arms. Since then
he has learned to use them in such
way that they not only increase his
speed but keep him from breaking.
Ayres has been over the course two
or three times this week and is show
ing some of his old-time form. His
wind, the thing that has troubled him
in previous races, is improving, and
he is gradually working himself into
a state of fitness.
All in all it looks as if the race next
Sunday would result in one of the
most exciting contests in the annals
of pedestrianism in Hawaii.
The veteran race and heavyweight
contest will start at p. m. and the
open race half an hour later.
The Hawaiian band will play at the
Waikiki Inn from 2 till A o'clock.

successful starts.
The distance was six furlongs and
the horse was ridden by Merepal, an
apprentice who was having his hrst

81 pounds The race was ru in I:16

MALES ARE
STILL STRONG

The soccer games tomorrow will be
Males vs. High School at two O'Clock,
and Punahou VS.. Iron Works at 3:15
p. m.
The Males should win from the
High School, though the game should
be a god one The Males seem TO
have the same clever combination
which has won them so many cham
pionships and which should cary them
successfully through the present sea-
son. They play the game every time
and what is frequently termed the
Males luck is, as a general thing, any
thing but luck; rather the result Of
hard practice and intelligent coaching.
The Punahous should get away with
the Iron Works pretty easily, The
former team looks to be the second
strongest in the league and the one
which threatens most danger to the
wearers of the green and gold.

SPORTS
WEBER AND
THE Major

According to reports from Hilo great
interest is being taken in the match
race between Weber and Major Col
ler which takes place for a purse OF
$1,000 on New Years Day.
Weber is a little lame while Major
Collier is working as well as a good
sound horse could be expected to. Web
Der only beat Major Collier half a
length in the Merchants Stakes on the
Fourth of July and then Collier had
seventeen pounds the worst vi the
weights.
One thing is certain and That Is that
Weber cannot be lame and beat the
Major. If Weber gets over his trou-
BILE, however, he is certain to make
things interesting for the Horner
horse.
Another interesting match will be
between Colin McLennans Pocohonto
and j. T. Moir's ]. 4. The distance is
a sprint and the winner is hard to pick
for it is doubtful if two worse horses
could be found anywhere. Pocohonto
is by Galveston and ran last in every
one of his starts at the Coast, where
he was owned by G. S. Mckenzie,
usually with odds of 500 to 1 offered
against him. He has not yet started
on a local track.

BOTH MINES
HAVE CLASS

Interest in the coming series OF base
ball games between the Diamond Heads
and the Japanese Athletic Club is
growing space and the series promises
to be one of the most exciting ever
played on local diamond.
Bert Bower will umpire and this is
good news for the fans for it ensures
the first-class work that they demand
when important games are played.
Both teams are practicing for the
struggle and the players of both sides
profess the utmost confidence as to
the issue.
In the past it has been the proper
thing to talk loudly of the class of the
major league teams as compared with
that of the minor league mines. Just
what they meant by "class" would puz-
zie eight out of ten of the upholders
of the senior league mines to define.
There is such thing as class, how
ever, and it is going to cut vital
figure in the coming games. Knowl-
edge of and timely application of the
latest fine points of the game, improv-
ed signals and coaching, obedience
and discipline, training and keeness,
all go to make up that hardto-define
word class
Both the Japs and the Diamond
Heads possess elias, though in just
what degree the coming series can
alone prove.

Rights by Fanlt.

Cincinnati, May 4.-The National
Baseball Commission today gave out
the following notice to all national
agreement clubs and players relative
to the revised national agreement:
Some weeks ago the commission
promulgated the revised national
agreement and had incorporated tllsre .
in various requests and changes that
had been agreed to between the com.
mission ana the representatives Of the
National Association and American As
ISOLATION and the Eastern League in
Cincinnati in January last. asss sH3,gsi
This revised national agreement
was submitted to the presidents Of the
American Association and the East
ern League, with the suggestion that
both these leagues ratify and approve
it. Neither one of them has done so
and for that reason a notice is now
issued by the commission that said re-
vised agreement is set aside as an een-
tirety and the commission will operate
in the future under the national agree
ment as in force and effect previous to
the meeting of the National Commits
sion in Cincinnati in January last; and
that no league or club operating under
organized baseball will be required to
pay attention to any of the new fea-
lures embodied in the revised agree
ment herein referred to. 49,.
