Three Sections Sure
OF Garden Prizes
MOlOkai, Hama And Lahaina Each To
Get A Trip Prize-Central Maui
To Get Other Three-COmmittee
Adopts Important Plan

At a meeting of the children's
gardens committee held at the Alex
ander House last Friday afternoon, it
was decided to set apart one of the
six chief prizes Grips to Honolulu)
to each of the following three sections
-Molokai, Hama district from Kailua
to Kaupo, and west Maui for Honoko-
hau to Olowalu. The other three first
prizes will be awarded to the owners
of the three best gardens wherever
located on central Maui.
This decision was arrived at after the
matter had been discussed at consider
able length. Because of the difficulty
of any one corps of judges being able
TO properly inspect the gardens in the
three sections first named, these sec
tions will be permitted to do their
own judging, or to appoint their own
judges.
For central Maui the chairman of
the children's gardens department has
been authorized to appoint a commit
tee to select a board of three judges
to make the final decision. One of
these judges will possibly be a govern
ment official from Honolulu if he can
be obtained The committees in charge
of the various districts will each de-
eide as to the best of their own
gardens, and these best will be sub
mitted for the inspection of the judges,
together with all reports, produce, or
other data concerning them.
Director Mathews states that the
young gardeners all over the county
are now settling down to hard work
and are making fine progress. There
are about 1900 gardens now in the
race.

Hama Voters Again
Sign Two Petitions
Many Names On Anti-BOOze Petition
Also Found On Wet LiSt-Grand
Hotel And All HUI Get Licenses Re-
newed

At the adjourned meeting of the
board of license commissioners, last
Saturday morning, renewal of the
liquor license of the Grand Hotel was
granted, there being no further objec-
tions than those of the day before.
The fact that the hotel is in the hands
of a receiver and is to be sold to sat
isfy mortgages on the property, was
ing the license.
All Hu, the restaurant keeper at
Waihee, who was charged with selling
liquor without bonefide meals also
got his renewal, after he had been
severely cross-eXamined. He was
given to understand that a few crack
ers on the side do not constitute a
meal and that the quickest way he
can lose his license is to keep up the
custom he is charged with.
The liquor inspector of the board,
Frank Sommerfeld, was not on hand
during the meeting to- answer ques-
tions, having been called to Honolulu,
it was reported, to have his teeth fix
ed.
Hama Again Is A Joke
Hama, which was again granted a
wholesale license to J. A. Medeiros
and a saloon license to L. Y. Aiona,
as noted in last weeks Maui News,
again flooded the board with petitions
and letters both for and against the
issuance of licenses, and again large
part of the names or residents in the
district appeared on petitions on both
sides of the proposition. Out of n net
ition of 50 against any licenses being
granted, 40 names also appear on one
asking that license be granted to
Medeiros, and deducting other names
of persons not registered as voters,
only 25 are left.
1t is reported that Medeiros is to
voluntarily close his wholesale house
through some kind of arrangement
with Aiona, so that Hama will have but
the one establishment in actual opera
alton. This report comes from good
authority, but has not been verified.

Knife WielderS Find
Grand Jury Lenient
Four Pleas OF Guilty Bring Peniten-
tiary Sentences-Sam Kaahui To
Plead Next Week-Lahaina Term
To Be A Short One

Completing its work in one day, the
grand jury of the Second Circuit
Court was discharged yesterday and
the court adjourned until Monday
when the trial of cases will begin.
The grand jury found 6 true bills
and in three cases investigated,
brought in no bills.
The "no bill" cases were perhaps
more interesting than the others The
first two-Fortoso Rubin and Estanis-
lau Cacueba, Filipino friends living
in WailIapu camp, got into a quar-
rel, about 10 days ago because one
wanted to play the phonograph at II
o'clock at night while the other want
ed sleep. They fought it out with
knives, and both were pretty badly
cut up. Evidently on the theory that
both were sufficiently punished, and
inasmuch as they appear to be as
good friends as ever the grand jury
couldn't find an Indictment.
Wife SIasher Also Released
M. Nakamura, the Japanese who
slashed his wife's face with a knife
when she confessed her indiscretions
with another man, and who almost
cut his own hand off when the knife
slipped, was also let off by the grand
jurors. The couple appear to have
made up their differences, and are
living together again.
indictments Found
Indictments were found against the
following:
Poliini Kalawaia, for burglarizing
the Paia Bank, pleaded guilty and
was sentenced on Thursday to not less
than 5 years and to pay the costs.
Francisco Diaz, for burglary of the
Hamakuapoko postoffice and railway
station, aslo pleaded guilty and re-
ceived a like sentence.
August Kekona and Manuel Gou-
veia, the two convicts who broke out
of the Kula Jail to steal an automobile
| from Joaquin Garcia for the purpose
of taking joy ride, pleaded guilty to
a charge of malicious conversion" a
new crime created by the last legis-
| lature, and were each sentenced to
serve 2 years at expiration of their
present sentences.
Samuel Kaahui, was indicted on
| two counts, one for the murder of Noa
Kaaa, and the other for arson, it being
charged that he burned the body OF
| his victim in his own house. This is
the Ukumehame valley murder case
of some weeks ago. In this case plea
was reserved until next Monday. d
H. Case was assigned as council tC
defend the accused.
On Secret File
One indictment was placed on the
secret file pending the arrest of the
accused, who is said to be in Homo
lulu at the present time.
The term of court is being held il
Lahaina and will be concluded mex
week under the new law which pro
hibits holding court terms in July ol
August. 1t is doubtful if any of the
civil calendar can be heard at this
term owing to lack of time.

Would Base Water
Lease On Price Sugar

G. X. Larrison, head of the terri
torial photography division, is on
Maui this week looking into the mat,
ter of the renewal of a number of
water right leases. One of these
leases for water from the government
lands watershed on the Koolau side
of Maui, has already expired, and
others soon will do so.
Mr.. harrison has suggested as a
basis for the new leases that they be
made on a sliding scale the rental to
the territory varying according as the
price of sugar fiuctuates. This idea
is being considered by the plantation
heads and also by Governor Pinkham.
The Governor has not indicated what
position he is prepared to take in the
matter.

GOVERNOR EXPECTED SOON

Governor Pinllham is expected to
make a visit to aMui in the very near
future. 1t was thought that he would
arrive on Wednesday, but he failed
to come. Just what if anything in
particular, is interesting the chief eX-
ecutive at this time on Maui is not
known, but it is understood that he
will look into land matters and the
matter of public improvements to be
made under the loan fund, while he
is here.

FairChild Is Federal Prisoner

Fred l.. talrchild, of Elbon, well
known all over the county for his
activities in the ranks OF the so
Cialist party, is facing trial in fed
eral court on two different Char9-
eS. He was indicted by the fed
erdl grand jury at DeadwoOd a
few weeks ago for his activities
in opposition to the success OF
the war, and was arrested the
latter part of last week. AT
hearing on this charge in Sioux
Falls he was released on 5000
bonds to appear in federal court
which convenes in Sioux Falls
next week.
Sioux Falls Areus-Leader of
| Monday gives the following story
of his second arrest:
Fred Fairchild, said to be con
neCtcd with the Farmers Non
Partisan league, was arrested by
United States Marshal, I o m
| Taubman here this morning,
charged with making false state
mentS to prevent the success OF
the American army in the war
and is now held in the county
| Jail for trial at the next term of
federal court at DeadwOod. Fair
child was at liberty until his ar
rest today under bond of $1,000,
having been indicted at the re-
cent term of federal court at
! Deadwood.
The arrest was made at the
state headquarters here OF the
Farmers Non-Partisan league. at
the corner of Eighth street and
} Philip avenue.
Fairchild, it is alleged, has been
J active in various parts OF the
state during the past few weeks,
coming here from Trent, it is be
. lieved, either last night or this
) morning. He was candidate
. for governor on the socialist tick
ct in the campaign of last fall.
Since then, it is alleged, he has
) been active IN Non-Partisan leag-
+ ue and socialist anti-war propa-
oanda in the state.

ement of speculation may be an
other lesson that we shall learn.
If this shall be the result, then
the occupation of this species of
gambler will be gone, and the
country will take long breath
of relief.
1t will also be interesting to
notice how many of the functions
of trade will remain in govern
ment hands after peace comes.
We have already veered largely
to SocialistiC views of life and still
more radical changes may be in
prospect. Conservative views of
long standing have been aband'
oned and more radical measures
adopted. For years we have heen
told that we were asleep on the
job in many respects. Now the
awakening has come and nc
measure seems to be too daring
to be tried out. Without doubt
many of these will be found mer
itorious, and if so, the innate fair
ness of the American people will
demand their retention in Oul
scheme of economy.

Fate of The ''Future"

Thoughtful students OF domest-
ic affairs in this country are just
now closely watching the effects
of the new government policy OF
food control. Wrapped up in this
policy is the probable total aboll-
ton of the practice OF dealing IN
futures" as applied to food stutts.
1t has been the practice OF
Americans to unreservedly con-
denim this practice, and to, IN tact
condemn the entire transactions
of the great exchanges and boards
of trade. However, in the opera
tons of these institutions there
has always been a work done that
no other agency seemed able to
handle. The legitimate grain ex,
change performed very needed
task in equalizine the dlstrlbu
ton of the grain supply, and
could not be dispensed with. This
is seen in the decision OF the gov
ernment to take over this task
which is now in the hands OF Mr.
Hoover.
Now the country is watching
to see the effect of the abolition
of the purely speculative activit
les of the exchanges, known a
futures. This practice has TO
the time being been discontinued
Its effect will be carefully noted
and the future policy of the cour
try will without doubt be shape'
accordingly. If the abolition @
the practice proves beneficial t
the country in war times, 1t WI
most assuredly be retained 1
peace. War has already taueh
us many lessons that are bein
but into practice and which W
will never forget. The fact thu
the food of a nation may be effe'
lively distributed without the e
