office of the Maxwell Motor Company in

Macon. Ga. and when he saw Booth =
broad smile came over his face. said
Napier: You told mo you had car that
would run a thousand miles without AN
adjustment. Where is the carr
Booth showed Napier the new Maxwell
touring car and assured him that his as-
sertion was true and that he. Booth,
would stand back of his statement. The
result was that the following day saw
Napier and his family starting for home

with all the paraphernalia known 10 camp

far away from hotel life az possible.

That Honolulu Is Too Small
to Support Two Dallies

In reply to a question by the Star

vestigation of so-called meat trust
alleged to be in existence in this city,
Assistant District Attorney j. w.
Thompson, in charge of the affairs OF
the local office during the absence
from the territory of Jeff McCarn,
this morning stated that he would di-
vulge no information regarding any
unfinished business of the district at
torney's office"
Giving his reason for not answer
ing the Star-Bulletin's question, the
assistant district attorney stated that.
in an article appearing recently in a
local daily newspaper other than the
Star-Bulletin, he had been misquoted,
having been made to say that he did
not personally know whether Jeff Nc
earn was coming back to Honolulu" )"
He added that such misquotation was
highly uncalled for, from the fact that
the paper in question had not inter
viewed him on the matter. Among
other things, he said that Honolulu
is too small to support two daily news
papers" ".. ..-........
is the district attorneys office go

so-called meat trust?" was the ques-

question are noted above
An investigation regarding the al

ing to accept the office. Judd decided
just as the committee meeting was
being called. that he was in duty-bound
not to take it, and Lorrin Andrews was
named without opposition.
Though the Judd movement was a
sudden one and for a moment seemed
likely to cause some lively political
skirmishing, the election of Andrews
resulted in the beginning of the Re-
publican campaign with assurances of
united action and harmony on all
sides. In fact, after the election the
office of Robert w. Breckons, where
the meeting was held, was the scene
of a little get-together session, and
after Andrews had declared that he
would not attack Kuhio viciously in
any way, he was applauded by all pre-
sent ~-

port Andrews if another were in the
field. The supporters of Kuhio for
delegate were particularly outspoken
against Andrews because he has been
talking from the stump against Kuhio
and in favor of Charles A. Rice.
A few days ago Judd said that he
was not candidate for the office and
that he did not expect to be able to
take it. Later on he found that he
