CHICAGO MARKET
IS Being OPENED
FOR HAWAII PINES
Territorial Market Division Is
Planning to Send Carload
Lots to Middle West

The Territorial NJ 'rkotluc Division
expects to begin making carload ship

ent A. T. Longley said today that this
new phase OF the markets work will
commence as soon as ARRANGEMENTS
can I've made to secure a steady influx
OF the fruit.
Fifty cases of pineapples are being
shipped weekly to San Francisco and
Portland. Ore.
I'VE could send more says Mr.
Longley, but the growers will not
bring in the fruit in spite Of the fact
that they are getting $25 ton, net, as
against s8 paid by the Canneries. If
We get the fruit, expect to see a big
trade opened up not only on the Pa
Ciic coast but in the eastern states.
ILOngley says the bottom has drop
ped out of the island onion market,
due to the present large crop in Cali
fOrnia, and the large quantities OF the
vegetable in storage. The market will
ship no more island onions to the
coast until further orders. The onion
crop in California was unusually good
this year, while a year ago the crop
was a poor one.
Regarding pineapple shipments.
Longley says they are going along

is concerned. Loss was experienced
in but one shipment. that being due

SUPREME COURT TAKES
HAWAII ELECTION CASE
UNDER ADVISEMEN7

The supreme court has reserved
temporarily it's decision in the Hawaii
county election suit, in which Arthur
Akina seeks a writ of mandamus com.
polling County Clerk John Kai of the
Big Island to place Akina's name on
the ballot at the county election on
May 4.
The court heard argument yester.
day. Akina is one of three Republic
an candidates on West Hawaii for
the office of supervisor from that side.
Three supervisors are to be elected,
or were until the recent county pri.
mary, when Julian Yates, Home Rule
candidate, received a majority Of the
vote cast
Attorney R. W. Breckons. represent
ing Akina, has taken the position that
Yates was not elected. He argues the
primary law is weak, because under
its provisions it was possible for the
electors of West Hawaii to give ma
iority vote to four or five candidates,
although only three offices are to be
filled.
1t is peculiar that Attorney-genera
Stainb4ck, who appeared in opposition
to Breckons yesterday. is the man who
first discovered this unusual feature
in the primary law. Stainback fig,
ured it out last summer as a mathe
NAUTICAL proposition, that where three
offices are to be filled and the mum.
Der of voters is 10 or more it would
be possible to give a majority vote
to more than three candidates.
1t is understood that before the pres.
ent legislature ends bill will be
prepared amending the primary law to
remedy this defect Regardless of
what decision the supreme court may
reach in the Akina case it is generally
agreed among attorneys that the math-
ematical problem developed by Stain.
back and employed by Breckons yes
terday is a mooted point bound to
cause more or less trouble at almost
every election, unless the law is made
more definite.

HORNER OFFERS
PLAN FOR MORE
WATER FOR CITY
Supervisor Suggests Special
Artesian System With Big
CiStern as Reservoir

FOrseeing long delay and financial
as well as legal complications in the
scheme to give NuUanu residents an
adequate water supply through tunnel
ing in the hills. Supervisor Robert
HOrnpr comes forward as the advocate
OF a new plan this morning. and ii 1t
is carried out he declares it will be
only a short time before Nuuanu has
all the water ii wishes.
AT first | favored the idea OF tun
neling from a 300 foot elevation, but
fiCulties | see in It, and now it strikes
me as being really unnecessary. In
place OF doing this tunneling, why MOI
drill for water in the lower levels and
lump it up into a concrete Cistcrn.
This cistern would not have to be
so very large. 1t could be made tC
preserve absolutely the purity OF the
water, a concrete floor and sides and
a cover In this way. Nuuanu would
get the best possible water and the
cost Of ii all would not be more than
$50, 900
THE more ! think of this plan the
more feasible and desirable 1t seems
If we tunnel into the hills, no one can
even guess the cost Of the work. The
result may be satisfactory or unsatis
factory. 1t may cost several han,
dred thousands OF dollars, and with no
greater benefits than would be enjoy
ed in the cheaper and quicker plan.
And again. it really is out of the
question to expect the Nuuanu resi-,
dents to go without water until the
tunnel Is completed. In comparatively
short time a water well could be drill
ed, a concrete cistern built and a suit
able pump installed to pump the arte-
sian water up into the cistern.
II think the criticism against the
Hawaiian Electric Company using the
city water not properly taken. They
are paying at the same rate as com.
mon consumer, and there can be no
valid objection, so far as know, to
their use of the water. There is
shortage now and they have stopped
using it, Just as the other consumers
have. When the water system is as
II should be there will be no shortage
at ALL"

PRINGLE CASE is BACK
IN ASHFORD'S COURT

Evidence was submitted in Circuit
Judge Ashford's court yesterday after
noon in c. D. Pringle's suit against
City and County Auditor Bicknell.
Pringle seeks to compel Bicknell to
deliver to him salary warrants for the
months of December, January and
February, the period during which
Pringle served as second clerk in Cir
cult Judge Stuart's court. Bicknell
has repeatedly refused on the ground
that the clerks appointment was not
legal.
, In the evidence which Attorney
Lightfoot, Pringle's counsel, sought to
introduce yesterday was the latter's
$500 bend. The bond had been ac-
cepted as valid by Judge Stuart, but
Attorney Milverton, representing
Bicknell, disclosed the fact that the
bond was for Pringle as second clerk
for the third circuit" The third cir
cult is Judge Matthewman's court, at
Kailua, Hawaii. The bond therefore
was declared void and the court de-
clined to accept 1t as evidence.
The supreme court, on a reserved
question submitted, by Judge Ashford,
already has ruled against Pringle.
