Politics.
Campaign ia Full Blast
PrOhibitioniStS Slew.

JOnn IL. WISE, euluOr Vi tue Ne
auhou, arrived in Wailuku Satur-
day evening last and made a short
speech on Market Street against pro-
hibition.
Senator Coelho was the first speak
er and held the crowd for an hour
and a half, speaking mostly of the
work he had done in the legislature
the past years, and also against pro-
hibition which he denounced as a
scheme of the missionaries to deprive
Hawaiians of their rights and force
the Countryt o government by com
mission.
In addition the Senator gave out
printed handbills giving an autobio-
graphy of himself and a record of
his legislative doings. The handbill
was illustrated with four wood cuts,
one a portrait 1.-THE senator, the Sc
cond represents the senator as a
fisherman clothed in marc, and
holding up a squid in one hand and
a fsh-spear in another, in the third
cut the senator is represented as sit
ting on "a dump cart heavily loaded
and hitched to small mule, the
last cut depicts the senator in the
garb of broncho buster, with SOM
berrero, buckskin breeches, and
cartridge belt but no revolver; and
is intended to represent the senator
as hunting for the shy voters in his
balliwick.
The senator puts forth plea that
he is poor man living in proverty,
and puts himself forward us pool
mans candidate for the Senate.
At the completion of John II
Wise's short address, he and Tom
Clark got into an automobile and
were whisked over to Waihee, where
another anti-prohibition meeting
was in progress.
Monday Senat II Coelho accompanied
by Dan Mahuka, the Waihee demo
cratic leader, left for another stump
ing tour around the Island of Maui
The party will speak against prohi
bition, and incidentally Senator
Coelho win push along his senate
rial aspirations, killing the proven
bal two birds with one stone.
The Maui Prohibition League ex
poets to have ex Senator w. White
otherwise known as Oily Bill stuml
Maui County in the interest of tn
league. He was expected Tuesda.
evening last but failed to show up
Judge Kalua, one of the prohibi
ton leaders, who went over to La
haina to welcome Mr.. White and t,
start the campaign reports the tow
of Lahaina in furor of excitemen
over the conversion of Mr.. Whit
to the prohibition cause. The ex
senator's former boon companion
refuse to believe what is being sal,
about the Lahaina champion, ;an'
think it great sight to have Bill
on the dry dock. All hands claim t
come from the famous state of Mis-
souri, and wants TO be shown befor
believing.
There are those who think tina
Billy White is after the senatoria
toga and will make the most of tn
prohibition campaign to advance hi
own interests and aspirations for
return to the senate.

Racers Are
Coming In
John O'ROurke's Four Horses
at the KahuIui Track.

The most important news item a
mong horsemen this week is the ar
rival of John O'Rourke's four hors-
es by the Claudine last Wednesday.
These were Weber, Harry Hearst,
St. Avon and sorrel mare. These
animals have been kept in training
in Hilo, and will have finishing
touches put on at the Kahului Track,
so that by July 4th they will be in
excellent shape.
In the named trotting race there
will probably be four entries: Cy-
clone, Maui, Revetta and Harry
Hearst. This race promises to be
very interesting. The mile and a
quarter will have at least sour en-
tries, and possible five. Major Col
lier, Weber, Warning and st. Avon.
Among some of the horsemen it is
rumored that there is another dark
horse to be sprung on when entries
close.
There are now about twenty horses
on the track at kahului preparing
for the big day. This in itself is an
assurance of some good sport. The
Secretary reports that he has had
any amount of inquiries concerning
the Mule and Cowboy races. While
the purses for these races are always
small, yet the races have always
proved interesting and in many cases
comical. To see as many as eight or
nine cowboys start of for half
mile stretch and change bride and
saddle twice, each time taking a
different horse, in all their anxiety
to get started as soon as passible, a.
midst shouting and cheering from
the grand stand, has always been an
opportunity of much amusement for
the spectators.
1t is stated on good authority that
there will be in the neighborhood of
900 excursionists to come fromHono
to spend the Fourth ON Maui. These
lucky Two Hundred can consider
themselves fortunate in having de-
cided TO spend that day on the Val
ley Isle. They will see some good
sport. All of Maui's hest element
have laid down all other cares in
the hope of making the Fourth a
glad day, and from present indica-
tions it will be one continual round
of pleasure.
Mr.. Won Tempsky, an old MEM
ber of the Maui Racing Association,
and one of its principal standbys,
went to Hawaii last Saturday by the
Claudine. Mr.. Won Tempsky will
no doubt encourage lovers of horse
flesh on the big Island to either en-
ter any racer that they may have,
or to come and witness the big day
On this Island, and see just how
differently people are treated when
they reach the shores of Maui.
The Maui News is in position to
congratulate the Maui Racing AS
sociation for its efforts in pulling of
as successful an occasion and is ex-
pected for the coming Fourth. Horse
racing has seen so many downfalls
ON the other Islands, while Maui
has kept it up steadily ever since the
Kahului track was erected, that ere
dit is due the members of this AS
sociation for their part in keeping
up the sport, more particularly on
clean, square, business-like basis

Resolution

Resolved, by the Mayor and Coun-
ell of the Borough of Wildwood that it
is the duty of those who have In charge
the construction of the Inland Water
way to press the completion of the
work from the point to which it has
been dug, Holly Beach bridge, through
to Atlantic City; that to divert the
funds which have been appropriated,
to a partial construction north of At
lantic City, would serve nobody-giv-
ing no communication either North or
South of that great resort, and would
defeat the purpose of the Legislature
in its Acts and Appropriations on the
subject.
Resolved, that we appeal to those
who have this great work to do, that
the digging be done ~consecutively and
SO as TO make it a real connected water
way that will serve the most people,
doing the greatest good to the greatest
number.

pany. 1t will occupy a space 90f200

Inland Waterway

Much surprise is expressed by all
who are acquainted with the route oil
the Waterway authorized and being
constructed by the State, that the work
between Cape May and Atlantic City
is not being done; aud that there are
those who are urging that digging be
pushed between Atlantic City and Bay
Head. In view of the facts that the
capital invested and the patronage OF
the resorts south of Atlantic City are
ten times greater than between Allan
tic City and Bay Head, and that the
waterway has already been dug from
the Harbor at Cape May up past Wild
wood Crest, to the bridge ove the
Turnpike at Holly Beach; and that to
complete it through to Atlantic City is
of many times greater i'm portance and
to vastly more people, than to dribble
out the funds appropriated by digging
north from Atlantic City, and thereby
serving nobody; for in that way no
connection is completed anywhere.
1t is a ~perversion of the purpose of the
Legislature in authorizing this great
public utility and appropriating money
to construct it. 1t cannot be that At
lantic City favors such a folly, for her
interests lie in immediate and easy ac-
cess to the thrifty and energetic resorts
on the Coast of Cape May County; it
means millions to her to have water
u with all Of them; why y
then this uncertainty and delay?

END COMES IN sANITARIUM

]. w Hunt, 70 years old, many times

hotel in this city, died in sanitarium
at Dallas, Texas, yesterday almost on
the eve of securing a final decree OF
divorce from his beautiful young wife'
who was Miss Harriet Babcock of De-
troit, Mich.
Her elopement some time ago with a
scion of English nobility while soJourn-
ing in Paris is said to have broken the
old millionaire's heart, and although a
reconciliation was affected and they
lived together for awhile, the wound
caused by his matrimonial troubles
never healed. Mr.. Hunt brought suit
for divorce after she had left him for
the second time.
They had been married nine years,
and the final decree of divorce was TO
have been granted within a few weeks
in New York. An interlocutory decree
had already been granted.

With the view of reducing the large
import trade of Japan, H. Ando and
Y. Kagami, Japanese agricultural and
horticultural experts, have arrived in
this city on the last lap of a world
tour of investigation to study agricul-
tural conditions in this section.
Mr.. Ando is chief agriculturist of
the imperial agricultural experiment
station at Toxic and Mr.. Kagami is
director of horticulture at the Chiba
province station near Toxic. Both left
Japan a year ago, and after studying
They spent a week in Washington
viewing the work of the various

ture.
Mr.. Ando will go to Imperial today
to learn of conditions in the great cot
ton district and Mr.. Kagami will go to
Riverside to inspect the agricultural
station there.
I'VE have found many processes in
the United States which will be a help
to us in JAPAN" said Mr.. Ando. I'VE
hope to increase the productiVeness of
cur soil so as to lessen the great
amount of imports now needed by our
country. Unfortunately cotton is one
of the products we most need that can
not be grown successfully in Japan on
account of the heavy rains at the pick

COMPANY ORDERS TRUCKS
FOR PASADENA LINE CARS
Shops at Redondo Beach Will
Furnish New Equipment

Manager Burnett of the Los Angeles
& Redondo Railway company an
nounces that an order has been
received from the Pacific Electric Rail
way company for the construction of
twenty standard gauge passenger
trucks at the Redondo shops.
These trucks are to be used on the
Pasadena lines of the Pacific Electric.
The work is TO be done by the Los An
geles & Redondo railway for the reason
that the Pacific Electric shops in
Los Angeles are overcroWded with
work.
This order indicates that it will be
the policy of the new management to
make full use of the Redondo Beach
shops, probably resulting in the en-
ployment of more men at the local
plant than heretofore.

CAR CREW TURNS
DOCTOR; MAN HIT
Oil Field Worker Goes to Sleep
on Track of Los Angeles
Pacific
BOTH LEGS ARE CRUSHED
After Rendering First Aid Rail-
readers Use Car for Ambu-
lance Duty

While asleep on the tracks of the
Los Angeles Pacific company at a
sharp curve near Sherman junction
last night, James H. German, an oil
field laborer, who recently came to
California from Pennsylvania, was
struck by eastbound car No. 1856, in
charge of Motorman j. Phipps and
Conductor w. S. Foss. and incurred
probable fatal injuries. His right leg
was crushed above the knee and his
left foot was mangled.
From letters found in the pockets of
the injured man it was learned that
he has a family living at Noblestown,
Pa. German is a member of the
knights of Maccabees and was en-
ployed by the Rancho La Brea Oil
company in the Sherman oil fielGs. Be-
fore coming here German worked at
Coalinga.
According to the car crew the unfor-
tunate man was lying on the track with
both legs across one of the rails. Be
cause of the fog the motorman was un-
able to distinguish objects far ahead
and was running at moderate speed.
The speed was slackened because of
the sharp curve and the car was with
in few feet of German before he was
seen.
Motorman Phipps applied the brakes,
but before he could bring the car to
a stop the wheels passed over the
sleeping man. The car crew applied
improvised tourniquets to prevent the
victim from bleeding to death, placed
him aboard the car and hurried him
to the receiving hospital. They said
they detected a strong odor of liquor
on the breath of the injured man and
found bottle partly filled with whis-
ky near him.
Police Surgeon Carter says German
has but a slight chance for recovery.
