THE WAR AT A GLANCE

Bulgarias activity in mobilizing her the Balkan states but in the European capitals Whether Bulgaria is to join either of the belligerents or intends to maintain an armed neutrality is not definitely known. The Bulgarian premier, however, recently told the government members Of Parliament that the war danger in the Balkans had decreasefS but that the Bulgarian government had been obliged to re- sort to armed neutrality. The premier is also quoted as having told his sup porters that Roumania and Greece would remain neutral and that he did not believe that treaty between Rou- mania, Greece and Servia against Bull garia exists.
 Bulgarian reseivists are hastening to the colors. one of the reserve officers being authority for the statement that the general mobilization includes 250,- 900 infantry. Bulgaria's field army of all ranks number between 300,000 and S50.000 men,

DEATH OF CAPTAIN ROBERTS.

James Roberts, captain of police at
Lahaina, and for fifteen years con-
nected with the Maui police force,
died about 2 o'clock Wednesday af-
ternoon at the Malulani hospital, Wal
lulIu, where he had been confined for
several months. He was about SO
years of age, and is survived by a
wife and three children. The funeral
which took place on Thursday at La
haina, was very largely attended.
The deceased was a native of La
mai, and had lived practically all OF
his life on Maui. He was considered
one of the best officers on the Maui
police force, and was universally
liked. The illness which finally re
suited in his death has been of long
standing, and necessitated a nuTnl q
of operations, which however, were
unable to restore him to health. The
widow and children have the genera
sympathy OF all.

Haiku Farmers Refuse
to Back Kula Protest
Think il Bad POlicy-ReSOIutiOn
Would Have Legislators to Keep
Hands Off Marketing Division
May Reconsider Action.

On the grounds that it would be dis
respectful TO the law makers, and
that the farmers have need of
the local merchants, the Haiku Farm
ers' Association, at meeting held on
Wednesday evening, refused to back
up the Kula Farmers Association in
resolutions recently adopted by the
last named body. These resolutions
as published in full in last weeks
Maui News, protested against the ac-
ton of the House committee or Agrj
culture in instructing the superintend-
ent of the Territorial Marketing D;vi
sion to cease making purchases OF
supplies for the farmers, as he had
been doing.
There was considerable discussion
over the matter by the members OF
the Haiku association, but motion
to endorse the resolutions was finally
voted down. The meeting was q email
one and it is intimated that the mat
ter will be brought up again for re
consideration.

thrown out for cause must be deduct
ed from this, which it is known would
make considerable difference. II
is believed that the inspectors of cleo
ton also experienced confusion on
this point, so the 2O53 given as the
total vote cast, is far from certain.
Inspectors Make Errors.
That the meaning of the law was
not clearly understood is evidenced by
the returns made in both the Puunene
precinct and the Hamakuapoko pre-
cinct, Notwithstanding the unGoub1ed-
ly high mental equipment represented
on both of these boards of inspectors.
In Puunene, under the head of total
votes cast" was given 2095, while the
registered vote in the precinct is but
311; while at Hamakuapoko, under
the same heading, the olficia! return
shows 1901 votes cast for a registra-
ton of 263.
Probably the biggest surpIi So OF the
day was the big majority secured by
e. r. Bevins over Dan ,;ase for coun.
ty attorney. Up to the time the re-
turns began to come in on Saturday
evening, Cases friends were evidently
sincere in their expressed confidence
of his victory land even his opponents
were apparently surprised by the land

Central Maui Lost Out.
A good deal of dissatisfaction is to
be heard over the fact that the re,
puhlican5 on Central Maui failed to
land single, nominee for the board
| of supervisors, while Lahaina district
has two, Hama one, and Molokai one
For this reason it is asserted by some
that there is to be a general non-par-
tisano rally around Pia Cockett and DR.
| Raymond at the regular election, in
an effort to land them on the board
as Democratic candidates
George Weight, of Wailuku, by the
returns last Saturday night was only
four votes behind Uahinui, but later
returns have increased the latter's
majority to 65-all through the officiaI
returns from the Molokai precincts
Weight is considering contesting .h6
vote, but has not yet decided on the
matter.

tended to all friends to be present, and
to come garbed in the quaint costume

been arranged on which much pains
taking effort has been spent, consist.
ing of characteristic dances, including
the famous ancient war dance, and a

Unless the official returns from the
Ulupalakua precinct, which will not br
in until today, and a canvas of the
total votes cast i'll a number of other
precincts proves to be incorrect, all
but four of the county Offices were
legally filed at the primary election
held last Saturday. Three out of the
four positions on the board of super
visors failed to receive a majority of
the total votes cast, and the nominees
for these places must make their final
race at the regular May election.
Good Vote PolIed.
According to the present count 2053
votes We're polled in the county out of
total registration of 1908. Under the
primary law, a candidate for nomina-
ton receiving majority of the votes
cast is declared elected Although
Sam Kalama did not receive such maj.
ority, he is as good as elected, not
having democratic opponent in his
race FOR Craftsmanship of the board.
e. r. Bevins, whose vote amounted
to 1890, has only votes to spare, ac-
cording to the present figures, if he is
to escape a contest with his demo
cratic opponent, Eugene Murphy, for
the place of County Attorney.
Wilcox for auditor and Baldwin for
treasurer, had 1414 and 1415 votes res
pectively, and had no opponents.
Glen Crowell beat Charlie Lake for
sheriff by vote of 1888 to sol; and
William Fred Kaae defeated J. N. K.
Keola, 1888 to 609.
Dave Fleming led among the super.
visors with total OF 1881, with Drum,
mond a close second with 995.
May Not Take Chances.
1t is possible that the candidates
thus apparently elected, will not take
chances on a number of ambiguous
points in the law, but will regularly
qualify and stand for the regular elec
ton, unless an opinion from the Su
preme Court can be obtained in the
meantime that is satisfactory. Fol
instance there is uncertainty as tc
what is meant by a majority of the
votes cast. Some hold that it means
a majority of voters who cast a bal
lot. Others think that all ballots

Smith Just Simply
Can't Stay Straight
Out of Jail, With Good job and
Friends to Help Him. He Jumps
to HiIO With Others Property
PiIikia For Him if He Comes Back

Fred L. Smith, who posed as Sen
ator Warren's son and as such pass
ed worthless check upon he First
National Bank of Wailuku some
months ago, is likely to be in further
trouble Following his release from
Jail few weeks ago, after serving
his sentence, he was given assistance
by a number of Wailullu persons, and
finally landed a job with Enders' Gar
age. But in about two weeks he dis
appeared and with him went about
$2S in money which Mr. Enders had
advanced him, besides a quantity of
tools and a suit case.
1t has been learned that Smith went
from here TO Hilo, and so far as is
known, is still there. 1t has also come
to light that the Rev. J. c. Villiers
was also stung by Smith. The dis
appearance of a number of automo-
bile tubes from the county garage
where Smith worked as trusty dur
ing his Incarceration, is also coinci-
dent with his leaving.
Smith is said to be fair mechanic
and a very handy man, but he isn't
wanted on Maui. According to the
police, he will probably not be dis
turbed unless he returns here of his
own accord.

According to J, Garcia, of the Maui
Athletic Association, the committee to
decide the tie between the All-Maui
and the All-Chinese teams in the car
nival series has not yet had time to
act, and as far as the committee was
concerned there never was any idea
of not rendering a decision, The
waving of claim to the cup by the
Chinese, he says, has no bearing on
the matter whatever
