Stars Win
First Game
Defeat Kahuluis By Score
of 8 TO o.,

Perhaps the largest attendance
that has ever witnessed Il baseball
game between local teams turned
out last Sunday afternoon to witness
the game between the Morning Stars
and the Kahuluis, champions of
last years season.
The crowd anticipated good
game and the supporters of both
teams were prepared to root for
their favoritcs when the game began.
The grounds were in fine condi-
ton, in fact, in better condition
than they have ever been. This
was due to the efforts of Jailor
Welch, who having secured the per-
mission to use prison labor from the
High Sheriff has done his utmost to
make perfect background out of
Wells Park.
Supervisor T. b. Lyons has also
assisted materially in the cleaning
up and fixing the grounds and
the officials of the Association feel
much gratifyied with the support of
these officials, who undoubtedly be-
lieve in helping good sport along.
Shortly after 3 p. m. Supervisor
T. B. Lyons was escorted to the
pitchers box and threw the first
ball over the plate, thus opening
the season of the Maui Athletic AS
sociation league. Immediately Um-
pire Keohokalole yelled play BALI
and the game began in earnest. The
game ended in 60 Score in favor
of the Morning Stars.
The following is summary of
the game.

The first game was played be-

gas and Yamatos, who with the
Fugi comprise the japanese league
and will play the first game every
unday beginning at about l o clock
or earlier. The game was easily
won by the Kasgas hy a score of 2S
to 4. The class of ball played was
poor, but the japanese are taking
quite an interest in the American
national game and will in time play
good ball.
Tomorrow's game will be played
between the Kahuluis and the Hea-
lanis and will no doubt prove quite
a sumner, The Healanis have quite
an aggregation of hitters and should
they connect with the sphere the
felders are going to have quite "A

The Kahuluis are also hard at prac-

more games if they can help it.
A large attendance of fans is eX-
pected and from the interest being
now taken by the fans both sides
will have a bunch of supporters.

Enterprising
Legislators
DO Profitable Graft Business
Under Assumed Names.

Honolulu, April 13- Certain hon
orablc members of the House of Re
prescntatives are alleged to he in
volvcd IN a petty graft that casts
dlScredit upon the whole body until
they are singled out by name so as
to clear the other members from the
talnt OF suspicion. Under assumed
names, it is alleged, they have been
increasing their earnings by trans
lating into Hawaiian bills introduced
in the House in English.
This graft, y it is said, will be
publicly exposed in the House by
Representative Long unless some ad-
lustment of the difficulty over the
pay and perquiSitcs of the stcnograp-
her is reached. At least, such is
the start ling threat that is being
freely made in the lobby.
The number of useless and i'm
practicable bills introduced in the
Lower Chamber-bills that there
was no possibility of passing, or of
the Governor signing if they were
passed-has for some time been
matter of comment among those
who have kept track of House pro-
ceedings. No other reason for their
being introduced being apparent, it
was but charitable to attribute them
to the foolishness or inexpcrience of
certain of the House members But
1t now appears, according to corri-
dor conversation, that there may be
ulterior motives behind the intro
duction of certain measures. The
pay OF Il Legislator is only S4OO-
considerably less than that received !
by most Of the clerks, the Sergeant
at-Arms, and other House officials. |
And so some of the honorable gentle
men, according to the member from
the Fourth District, have been pad

OF the more remuncrativc work of
As under the law, they
cannot draw two salaries from the
Territory at the same time, they
have been obliged to resort to the
of using assumed names

Long, it is stated, threatens that
# there is any more talk of graft in
.he House, he will tell what he
knows about this particular graft.
Therefore certain of the honorable
who have been adding an
honest penny now and then to their
Incomes, are supposed to be shaking
n their shoes.

SAYS HfNFY KNEW
COULD NOT CONVICT
Fickert Says Some Defendants
Can Not Get a Fair
Trial

Gumshoeiess juries in event of his
election were promised by Charles M.
Fickert last night when he addressed
the residents of Oceanside in the hall
OF that name.
II am not opposed to the prosecution
OF graft" Fickert declared, but l am
opposed to the methods of Heney and
Burns. When you are drawn on
jury in the graft cases you find gum
shoemen camping on your trail and
prying into your private affairs. You
are abused in court. The reason is
Burns wants to drag out the cases. He
gets an auto and more money than the
district attorney, so he wants to pro-
long the trials. That is why nothing
is done. BY the present methods it
will take 80 years co get jury in the
case of a man now on trial When l
tried the first land fraud case here
got a Jury in three days and 1 got a
conviction. / venture to say / got
more convictions in one year as assist
ant United States attorney than Heney
has in five years.
''aeney has been prosecuting. certain
cases in which he knew he had no
evidence to convict. So he has failed
both by reason OF this and through his
Incompetence 4t-sI
Furthermore, if Heney keeps, on
talking as he does. he will disqualify
every man in town for jury duty. But
Heney is not going to be district at
torney because l know from the recep-
ton given me in republican and union
labor bodies will be-"
In the applause that followed Fickert
seemed rather taken aback at what
sounded like a loud and distinct hiss
ing. But it proved to be small boy
contributing to the enthusiasm with
two sticks covered with sandpaper.
Z Duboce hall, near Church street, was
f1led to the doors by union labor
meeting which gave. Fickert its atten-
ton In a speech devoted largely TO j.
Dalzell Brown.
-.Heney has been talking about equal
ity before the law" he said, but I'll
tell you what he calls equality before
the law. There is the case of rDalzell
Brown, who stole some eight or ten
million dollars from some ten or twelve
thousand depositors. Brown got Hiram
johnson to defend him. who had him
plead guilty before a friendly judge,
with the result he is now free man..
Other meetings addressed were at In
gIeside hall and Maennerbund hall. Here
Fickert said, among other things, that
he was not goingsto farm out" the dis
trict attorneys office to private indf-
viduals He said he thought the situa-
ton grave for the people when its ef-
forts were concentrated against GER
tain defendants. He promised to ad-
minister his Office impartially and give
a fair trial to some people whom he be-
lieved were not now getting it.

INDORSES MCCARTHY
Brennan Urges Workman to
Support Head Of Labor
Ticket

James Brennan, one of the mana gers
of Charles NJ. Fickert's campaign for
district attorney and a prominent re-
ert club, made an eloquent plea for the
election of P. H. Mccarthy and Fickert
yesterday at union labor midday
meeting held at Fourth and King
streets.
P. H. Mccarthy attacked William
Crocker and DIR. T. B. w. Leland, his
two opponents for mayor, and Charles

nominee for district attorney. grilled

When Mccarthy arrived he directed
that a large Autograph of himself be
lifted from the side of a warehouse to
a more conspicuous place on the wagon

Crocker had provoked Industrial war
nine years a go and had locked his meh
out. Doctor Leland was branded as an
incompetent and was charged with be-
ing too friendly with the corpora items.
Mccarthy. with his usual assurance.
expressed the belief that William Nc
Dewitt on the socialist ticket would de-
feat Crocker and Leland for second
place in the race.
The union labor party ticket, said
Mccarthy, will get more votes than
the so called republican and the so
called good government parties led by
Tim Sullivan and Gavin McNab.''
Fickert launched at once into a vim
dication of himself, an attack on Heacy
and denunciation of the News.
MY opponent comes here and tells
you." said Fickert, Il am the candidate
of Patrick Calhoun. He lies when he
says it and he knows that he lies. He
thinks he can bamboozle you as he has
the people of this city for the last three
years. When ] am elected district at
tofney I am going to be your district
attorney and not the Eired attorney of
Spreckels, Phelan or ally other man. /
am going to try every man under in
dictment whether he is a millionaire or
a common burglar
-Fickert charged that his opponents
were hurting -stinkpotS at him. After
asserting that he had always been
friendly to labor he asserted that
Heney had been the attorney for Call
houn in the streetcar strike and that he
was the attorney for the Danbury hat
company, which is fighting the unions.
James Brennan of Fickert's manage

audience, pleaded seloquently for the
election of Mccarthy and Fickert. c. A.

Mexican Consul Ornelas called at the

a conversation with Luis Gonzales de

facts before his government, and con-
irmed the statement of the prisoner
that his father was one OF the leading
citizens of the republic.
Chief Dishman arrived here yester-
day afternoon from Los Angeles, and
after viewing the police parade this
morning will leave tonight with De
Ands, who still protests that his arrest

Doctor Leland was heartily welcomed
at all the meetings.
1T is the sincerity and not the prom
ises of the candidates. said Leland.
that the voters must consider In this
campaign. The great physical issue
that confronts us is the acquisition of
the Hetch Hetchy water system. Az
candidates are speaking in favor OF the
Sierra water supply project. Why
should you believe men who say they
will do their utmost to bring water To-
the city from the Hetch Hetchy valley
when those same men refused to do so
when they were in complete power?
The citizens of San Francisco ara
more intelligent than their enemies sun
pose. and they are not going to turn
the best Interests OF the city over to the
worst people"
In a strong speech at the Auditorium,
annex Thomas Hickey dwelt upon the
work of the Incumbent supervisors to
secure the Sierra water supply sites
from the federal government and de-
nounced p. H Mccarthy for refusing to
raise his voice in protest when the
Doodle governplent abandoned the
Hetch Hetchy project.
Mccarthy" Hickey said, 'took the
E~~- ,IS
board. When the board by resolutions
abandoned the project did he protest
or denounce the supervisors for pass
ing the resolution?
And in answer to Theodore Bells
question as to why ne did not do so,
he says that he was IN Indianapolis.
He was In Indianapolis for a few days.
but as leader of the prty. possessing
inside information. he knew what was
going on between the bOodIers and the
Spring Valley water company"
In ccpclusion Hickey said that to
put the Hetch Hetchy system into the
hands of candidates OF either OF the
opposition tickets would mean that the
project would be in the hands OF it's
enemies.
Theodore Bell continued to denounce
Mccarthy as a false friend Of organized
labor and a political self-seeker.
sydney Van Wyck also addressed the
gathering IN the Auditorium and fbrief
addresses were made by deorgA A
