Woncn Farm Dcmonstrators.

Some farmers are able TO show the
government how to conduct part
OF its business. A farmers associa-
ton in Massachusetts employed a wo-
man farm agent. Her work was
along experimental lines and proved
so valuable that the director of the
New Hampshire Farm Experiment

the United states Department of Ag-

perform such valuable government
service are not considered fit TO vote.

DREDGING Will

that dredging operations at Kahului

Railway Company are practically COM

The contract, which calls for the re-

from the harbor bottom, covers work
on the west side of the harbor and
will be big help in allowing large

Maintenance OF the harbor is to be
covered in an item of $780, 900 in the
rivers and harbors bill now pending
before Congress.
At Hilo the contractors are said to
be making splendid progress in trans
porting rock from Waipio quarry to
the braakwater being built there. Dur
ing the last month 1899 tons of rock
were placed on the big project, and at
present the breakwater extends 1881
feet in length.

for towing rock from the quarry is in

JAPAN IS MOST
ACTIVE WORKER

Consult General R. Moroi is showing
q keen interest and lively enthusiasm
in his new office and has started a
campaign to learn what the japanese
are doing and have done in Hawaii.
In the short time that he has been
in Honolulu he has visited the schools,
the business houses and industrial
plants.
Consul Moroi is studying the local
situation for himself, and although re-
ports are. received from others he
finds greater satisfaction in forming
an idea from personal visits. The
Japanese representative has hobby
of taking strolls to different parts of
the city and in these walks he has
learned many things that are certain
to be useful to him in the future.

SAY CANDLES
TICKET PUT OVER
IN AMAZING WAY
Continued from page one)

by Wilson and -Keokohalole, with Eu-
gene Murphy running as alternate to
the latter, got Al votes and the Nc
Candless ticket got nil.
In Kahului precinct the count was
nine to one in favor of the McCand-
less ticket.
The Pinkham wing declares that
Raymond and Ben Lyons-the latter
running as alternate on this ticket
are certain to have polled most of the
Bourbon votes at Paia and probably
at Kahului had the count been fair.
Paia is Keokohalcle,s precinct and
nobody knew about the election, ii is
declared, until he came through with
the assertion that Al votes had been
cast for him there. He is said to
claim that the election was held sec.
reilly because of the opposition of
plantation managers. The Rinkham
Democrats frankly doubt that any
such votes were cast at all.
On Oahu the ,Pinkhamites similarly
claim some loose voting" They say
that Jesse Uluihi, one OF the McCand-
less candidates for delegate to the ma
tional convention, ran all of the voting
in his own precinct, the eighth Of the
fourth, with the interesting result that
this precinct went So to 1 for the Nc
CaAdless ticket.
Land Commissioner Rivenburgh,
who is one of the Pinkham wing lead
ers, remarked when he heard this:
Why the mischief did he give us
that lonely one?
Such incidents as these, say the
Pinkham group, OF unterrified Bour-
bons. shows that the whole election
was irregular. They are so confident
that on the evidence the Maui county
committee will declare DIR. Raymond
elected from the Valley Isle. It will
be up to the tcrritoriaI committee to
consider these findings, also any pro-
test on the national committeeman's
fight. The territorial committee is
pro-McC andless in complexion, hence
the talk of carrying the fight to the
national committee.
