The Prince campaigned on Maui. He
found things in turmoil there, and
there is much trouble in all the parties
The Republicans are no better off than
the Others, and thcre is considerable
knitting Maui will be again visited by
the Prince and he will endeavor to
straighten out some ofsthe kinks.
He will shortly leave for Kauai and
make thorough canvass of that island
Last campaign the Prince did not make
much of stay ON Kauai. This time,
however, in Difference to the wishes of
the people there he win make longer
visit and get thoroughly acquainted
with them.
II is altogether likely that the Dele
gate will confine his campaigning large
ly to the other islands and do Oahu
in the very last days.
Today the candidates will accompany
Delegate Kalanianaole to Waimanalo
where they will make things hum. Wal
manalo has hitherto been left very much
to itself politically, but the candidates
will show themselves and make it one
of their places of visitation. A luau
will be spread there for all Corners.
On Monday night rousing rally viii
be held in Kakaako by the Republicans,
and on Tuesday night another big rally
will be held in the fifth district. The
big meetings viii be alternated from
fourth to fifth, with smaller precinct
meetings going on meanwhile.
Just how successful Kuhio's Hawaii
trip was is told as follows by the Hilo
Tribune:
Supervisor Fernandez, candidate for
the senate, returned to Hilo last week
in time to attend the meeting of the
board of supervisors, after having been
his stumping trip through the Kau and
Kohala districts.
The Kau and Kona districts have
always been regarded as the most dan
gerous as far as Kuhio is concerned,
Kau because the matters pertaining to
the administration of the land law had
there come to somewhat more of a focus
than is generally the case, and Kona
because these districts have always in
the past been Home Rule and Demo
cratic hotbed. Furthermore, it was re-.
ported in Hilo that Link McCandless
had made more than an ordinary success
of his tour through Kona.
For that reason the report which is
brought here by Fernandez is partieu-
larlyapIeasing. The Delegate was well
received in most places, and while the
seed sown by McCandless in several in
stances cropped forth through questions
and objections made by voters who at
tended the Kuhio meetings, the Dele
gate was in every instance able to show
the justice of his views and actions, and
to convince the doubters that McCand-
less had not always been strictly truth
full. On the whole, the trip of the Dele
gate on the leeward side of the Island
was a success, and there can be no doubt
but that he strengthened himself con-
siderably and did much towards oblit-
Grating the work done by Link.

which interested the people there the
most was that of the appointment Of

why the Governor had been given the
power to appoint such a commission,
arguing that it would have been better
