M. A. Go. Gives Phone
Co. Temporary Help

Owing to trouble with poor batteries
the Maui Telephone Company has
asked the Maui Agricultural Company
to supply it with sufficient current to
ring it's bells Both companies have
asked the public utilities commission
for permission to make this arrange
ment, says the Advertiser of last
Friday, and the public utilities commits
sion, meeting yesterday afternoon, has
granted permission, providing the un-
derstanding is in the nature of a pure
ly temporary arrangement
The Maui Agricultural Company
hesitated about supplying the almost
negligible amount of current, not
through selflshness nor unwillingness
to accommodate a neighbor, but for
the reason that it does not want to
put itself in a position where it would
be classed as a public utility. 1t doe
not want to come under the jurisdic-
ton of the public utilities commission
and it might be classed as a public
utility by contracting to supply an
other public utility, in this case the
telephone company, with electricity,
unless previous understanding was
had with the commission.

Maui Japanese Plan
To Join Labor Union
Big Meeting To Be Held In Wailuku
Next Sunday Delegates From
All Maui To Come-Want Higher
Wages.

Japanese plantation workers are
forming unions on Maui as on the
other islands. Last Sunday the Wal
lnku japanese held a well attended
meeting in the Valley Isle theater at
which the matter was discussed and
a preliminary organization effected
1t is understood that a meeting was
also held at Lahaina and that informal
gatherings were held at other places
also.
Next Sunday it is stated big gen
eral meeting will be held in Wailuku
o be attended by representatives of
Japanese workers from all parts of
Maui
The object of the organization is
to work with the unions being form
ed on the other islands in demanding
increased wages and an 8 hour day.
A minimum wage of 50 per day seems
to be the idea of most of the work
ers, this to replace the present bonus
system, except that a bonus will be
asked besides when sugar is selling
for over $140 per ton.

Jail Bird Passes
Bad Check At Bank
Came So Easy He Tried Second Time
And Is Nabbed-Was Trusty At
County Jail-Has Long and Bad
Record For Crime.

Frank Hanuna, serving a sentence
of months in the county Jail for
larceny, recently needed money He
decided that the most likely place to
get money was from a bank.
Taking advantage of his trusty's
position he got hold some civilian
clothes to cover his prison suit, went
the Bank of Maui, and there pre-
3ented to Akimori, the Japanese clerk
4 check for SO on the Baldwin Ma
tional Bank, made payable to and sign
ed by George E. Crosse" The check
wasn't endorsed, but half an hour Lat
er he came back with the check in
proper form and. signing his own
name as Henry Kamalei got the
money.
The check came back from the Ka-
hului bank in a day or two marked
no funds but the bank people were
unable to locate "Kamalei."
Last week Hanuna needed money
again and decided to try the same
game, only this time he wanted $25
and so made out the check according
ly. This time he imagined the name
Henry H. Heart"
But when he presented the check
to John Robertson, paying teller, he
hit snag. Robertson walked back
towards a telephone and the high
finance jailbird took alarm and beat
it cross lots back to his cozy cell. He
was recognized in his flight, however,
by someone who saw him leave the
bank, and it was not long until Sher-
iff Crowell had ful. confession.
Hanuna, who is not yet OF age,
served a term in the reform school.
He was convicted few months ago
of entering a Japanese shop and get
ting away with some money.

Two New Pineapple
CannerieS Started
HOnOlu Ranch To Hereafter Pack
Its Fruit In Lahaina Where Labor
Is Easier To Get-Grading Begins
For Factory At Kuiaha Also.

Work is progressing well in the
cannery which is being built at La
haina by the Honolua Ranch, and which
will replace the present cannery at
Honokohau. When completed the
fruit will be shipped into Lahaina by
rail on the Pioneer Mill Co.'S tracks,
for canning.
1t is said that the main reason for
locating the cannery at Lahaina is to
secure a more dependable labor sup
ply during the rush seasons.
The Honolua Rancl cannery, which
has heretofore manufactured its own
cans, has decided to abandon this
feature of its business and has con-
tracted with the American Can Co.,
for it's supply for the coming season.
These cans will be bl ought from Ho-
nolulu by steamer in collapsed form
to conserve space.
Work At Kuiaha Starts
Work of grading for the cannery to
be built at Kuiaha by the Pauwela
Pineapple Company, has also been
started, and it is stated will be rushed
to completion as fast as possible.
Milton T. Clark, a well known CON
struction engineer of San Francisco
now associated with Dickey & Wood
of Honolulu who will have general
charge of the building of the Kuiaha
cannery, arrived on Maui on Wednes
day evening for the purpose of getting
the work started. With him came A
Tyler and C. A. Perkins, young
engineers of the same firm, who viii
remain in charge of the work until il
is finished.
