can not vote and assured his hearers
that II was not his fault. tsThe dele
gates at Washington, he said, favor
ed women voting on the liquor ques-
tion, but friends in congress urged them
not to press the question for fear it
might defeat the object and so it was
dropped"
Another reason he advanced against
women voting at this time was that the
time was so short that delay might be
caused by registration of voters, which
would necessitate a postponement Of
the election and bring it so near the
regular political campaign as to lose
its Importance when mingled with
the other issues. He then suggested
that the women hold a ballot in ad-
vance. This movement ought not to
be conducted by any church or society,
he said, but by the women of the Ha-
waiian Islands.
eff beaten this time, we want TO
90 to Washington with the record OF
the united womanhood Of these Islands
behind us. The movement must center
in this city and you must consider
women or not to carry out the project.
L
arguments and be able to defend their
cause.'
Here Mr.. Woolley took up some Of
the most popular arguments against
prohibition, the one in particular be-
ing that the rich man could send away
and have booze shipped to him but the
poor man could not afford to do this
and therefore the law would only effect
the poorer people.
cit would be quite possible
for the rich man to get liquor, but con-
gress can prohibit carriers from bring
ing liquor into prohibited territory and
many believe it will soon do so.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Woolley S
speech, Mrs. Frear addressed the meet
ing. She said that she and Mrs. Whit
ney had made up their minds to work
to aid the movement in any way they
could. All the data necessary to secure
the registration of voters and carry on
the campaign could be had from Mr..
Mott Smith, she said, and he would
assist them in the work. They would
have to hire a hall, hold mass meet
ing and invite the leaders of the vari-
GUS societies to give their support. The
women workers, Mrs. Frear thought,
would give their services free and ev-
erybody needed would volunteer. The
actual expense, she figured, would only
be about 5000. A great many women
would be needed. she explained, to GO
ont after the prospective voters and
induce them to come and register.
All those who felt that they would be
willing to take up the work were then
asked to rise and nearly the entire as.
semblage arose. The meeting then ad-
iourned.

HOLSTEIN HERE
TO TALK POLITICS
Is Confident of Reelection in Spite
Of the Fights Against
Him.

a. L. Holstein, Speaker of the House
of Representatives, was in Honolulu
for few hours yesterday. He arrived
from Kohala on the Msuna Loa at
seven o'clock in the morning and left
on the Mauna Kea at noon. During
his shor6 stay he flied a number of
appointments to talk politics, which
was the main object of his visit.
Holstein is being vigorously attack
ed in his own district, and his oppo-
nents say that he viii not be elected to
the next house at ALL If he is elected,
his choice for speaker again is prac-
tically conceded. Holstein says he is
going to get the votes, all right. A
report has been published here that Ka-
niho, the Cannon Ball of Kohala, was
going to oppose Holstein this time, but
Holstein has a letter from Kaniho lin
which the latter denies any such inten-
ton. Kaniho wants to be elected again
himself, and is not looking for any
unnecessary fights.
my opponents have several times
before predicted that / would not be
elected said Holstein, "but when the
votes were counted / was always well
in the lead. Julian Monsarrat, who Is
now the principal man predicting that
! won't be elected, has done the same
thing before. But he IT carry his

WHY PINEAPPLEs MUST
UNDERGO FUMIGATION
Thomas Made Trip to Coast to
Find Out Why Shipments
Were Held Up.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2S.-H. A.
Thomas, one of the largest pineapple
growers of the world, made special
trip from tthe Hawaiian Islands to this
city to see why it was that so many
of his pineapples were denied access
to this country by the quarantine Off
GERS in the employ of the state hor-
ticultural commission. Commissioner
Jeffrey explained to him that the trop-
zeal fruit was rejected or fumigated be-
cause it conveyed the mealy bug to
California, where the parasite causes
great injury to the orange and lemon
crops.
The pineapple grower did not blame
the officers here for their drastic ac-
ton when he learned about the harm
full influences he was capable of in.
aicting upon another industry. JEFF
frey advised Thomas to plant nothing
but clean tips and destroy all mealy
bug infected vegetation surrounding
the plantation. By so doing Thomas
ca n increas his market, which at
present covers most of the states in the
Union.
Under present conditions it becomes
duty to hold up pineapple shipments
at the wharves in San Francisco or
other ports where they arrive and
fumigate them. 1t is necessary to lay
the fruit out on the docks to make
sure that the pest is exterminated be-
fore deliveries can be made to the
dealers.
