The News is in a position to state
authoritatiyely that Delegate Kuhio
will come to Maui, and will address
the voters of this county.
While in Honolulu recently, a
representative of the News saw Ku-
hio, and talked with him, and the
Prince said if the people wanted
him he would come, probably on his
return from Hawaii. The Prince
has aweak throat at present, thus

Exchange Of Land at Hama


The principal matter discussed by
the advisory land board at its meet
ing last Monday, WIS an exchange
Of land between the Territory and
the Kaeleku Sugar Company. The
purpose of the exchange was to sup
ply the town of Hama with public
land for park, school grounds and
stable grounds. About 107 acres
are involved in the transaction, the
plantation obtaining by it land be-
tween Kawaipapa and Mokelehua
gulches.
Mr.. Campbell explained that the
motion for exchange came from the
county board of supervisors, rather
than the plantation, which, he un-
derstood, is not over anxious to see
the deal go through.
Against this exchange an object
ion was filled with the board, and
signed by Marion Cabral and fifteen
others, asking that the Kawaipapa
lands be opened to homesteading

Electricity
For Wailuku
waiIuku Electric Light Company Will
Build Plant Immediately.

For many months the residents
of this section of Maui have been
kept on the qui vive over announced
Improvements in the Lighting ar
rangements, which never material
lied, until now, if one is heard talk
ing about electricity he is looked at
sideways.
When the Wailuku Electric Com
pany first received their charter it
was intended to install large plant
suitable for light and power 1t
was thought at that time that Ka-
hului would have large wharf
where the American Hawaiian
freight steamers would receive their
freight from elevators operated by
electricity. When that scheme fell
through, however, it was found
necessary to readjust the plans to
suit new conditions. No sooner
had the new plans been perfected
when it was learned that the Kahu-
lui railroad had made arrangements
for securing electric power from the
pumping plant of theH. c. u S.
Co. IS molasses tank. This change
placed the electric company in the
same position as they had been before
they started.
This time however, the company
think they have got down to an alb
solutely sure working bases, and are
going ahead on lighting plant
only. Itis intended to install 1000
light plant, and things have pro-
gressed SO far along this line, that
it is expected actual work on the
plant will be begun in short time.
The Kahului railroad will wire and
install lights in Kahului, working
under the charter of the Wailuku
Electric Co., after which the whole
system will be taken over by the
latter. 1t is the intention of the COM
pany to push things along rapidly
from now on, so that the people OF
Wailuku and Kahului, may reason.
ably expect electricity both in theil
homes and on the street within six
months.

No white collar decorated the

bordered by the edges of a heavily

just the thing for him.

he continued, in answer to ques-
ton. You see, our horses have
roach backs-you call them sway
backs over here-and the ordinary
American saddle fits them at both
ends, just like puttinga a pole from
one bank to another of ditch"
Surprise was expressed that he
came all the way to Los Angeles

YOUNG MAN IN POLITICS.

If it be true, as DR.. Woodrow VIII
son remarked before the Contemporary
club, that college men have too much
pride to permit themselves to be candi-
dates for public office. the more's the
pity. 1T is certainly the case that the
voter with a liberal education is more
likely to sidestep his duties at the pri-
maries and at the general elections
than the llliterate ward heller" who.
as an attached and faithful partisan of
the political powers. serves in the mar
tioning obedience. The college man
he developed theories; he wants to
make an idea or an ideal prevail. The
"heeler" wants his party and his ward
boss to prevail for that means that he
VIII get a job having a value directly
proportional to the service rendered.
But self-respect should have the eff
feet of leading an educated man to ac~
tive participation in political affairs,
rather than causing him to be neglect
ful--studiously neglectful, it might be
said-of his duty as a citizen. If he is
proud, the educated man should be
too proud to wear the yoke OF the pol
itician who is in public life for what he
can get out of it for himself. The men
of the past who conferred undying hon
or on their descendants in the present
generation We're not too proud to serve
the state; it is incongruous and incon
sistent that their childrens children
should consider it beneath them to ac-
cept those responsibilities which were

ANTI.SPY LAW.

With the discharge of the Japanese
spies, because of the absence of law
for their punishment. the morale of the
military in the Philippines has suf-
fered. The japanese spies were aided
by recreant American soldier 1t is
readily conceivable that in the absence
of law there will be continual prying
upon the defenses of the islands, and
the offenders may expect to have I'M
munity If caught.
The demand for federal enactment
covering the case has found response,
and this session of c<2gress will hardly
close without the passage OF an anti
spy law that will be relatively as
drastic as the military law for such
characters in time of war. The safety
of the country depends not little
upon the secrecy maintained as to it's
defensive works. Unfortunately. the
Japanese already have considerable ac-
qua;ntance with them and other gov
ernments as we'll, through their agents.
Nevertheless. the law should be passed
and be made adequate for the discour-
agement of spies.

GREATNESS OF MUSIC.

The greatness of musical art is in
its expression of universal emotions
and sentiment. There is no confusion
of tongues" no loss of beauty of ex-
preston in translation. True, it con-
veys no definite meaning alike to all
it would not be as great an art if II
did 1t does greater things-it stimu-
lates and invites the imagination.
The great world grasp of musical
suggestion and its direction is remark
able. A work of Milton, Keats, Brown
ing loses much in beauty and power
when expressed in foreign tongue,
and the English language cannot ex-
press the beauties of the great italian,
German or French masters of poetry.
Language is changeable and limited
in it's appeal. Take, on the other hand,
the creations of Beethoven or Wag-
ner. Even though Verdi may make a
Italian, Wagner is none the less appre-
ciated in Italy, an dthe. exquisite piano
! solos of CIR own beloved Mcdowell are
as greatly loved in Germany, if not
more so than in our own country. The
beauties Of "To a Water Lily are ap-
preciated as much as a Tannhausel
march or overture in the land of Bee
thoven. This great art is the neareS
universal of all in its appeal to TIN
emotions. and this. if nothing else, in
sures its even greater development il

MILTON WILL NAVE MODERN
FIRE ALARM SYSTEM SOON

MILTON, Ore, April S.-(SpeciaD-
The Milton volunteer fire department
will in the near future have a modern
alarm system reaching to the principal
parts of the town. An electric bell
will be installed in each of the resi-
dences of the firemen and will be OPP
Grated by any of the signal boxes to be
placed on the streets. There has been
need several times for more efficient
and more rapid system OF calling the
firemen out and the adoption of this
plan>will solve the problem. OF course
as there are no headquarters where
some of the firemen are at all times
it is necessary to have the individual
call system.
The company has about twelve men,
bers, all experienced men. They have
been together for three or four years,
and under the direction of Chief J.
D. Mcknight are we'll prepared to
handle any Of the ordinary fires which
may occur. The company has a small
chemical engine which has proved
useful several times. Besides this they
have about $500 feet of regulation hose.

MORE WATER NEEDED TO
RUN MILTON POWER PLANT

MILTON, Ore, April S.-(Special.) -
The city has been doing some more
work for the benefit Of the people
who use electric power and lights
from the municipal plant. Ever since
the plant was moved from central
Milton to it's present place there has
been trouble ano ut getting water
enough to run in the summer and not
getting too much during the high
water water season. The high wa n
every fall and spring washes out the
dam in the river above the headgale
and causes SIS or $40 expense to get
a few sacks of rock put in to .u'n
the water where it is needed Then
in time of low water there could no!
be enough water obtained to run the
plant to full capacity. This tins u
number of large boulders were blasted
ont of the cliff into the river and NOV
cd into place so as to divert enough of
the water down the f1ume to run the
plant with no trouble
