Honolulu, June 5-City and County
Clerk David Kalauokalani sprung a
political sensation late today when he
refused certificates of election to
Kumalae and Pacheco and issued them
to Ed. Fogarty and William Sheldon
who stood Sth and 9th for supervisor
on the ground that Pacheco and Ku-
malae were ineligible for Office be-
cause they were senator and repre-
sentative. Sheldon returned his cer-
tificate refusing to accept it. 1t was
reported that the city clerk would
also issue a certificate to Attorney
A. M. Brown because Judge Heen was
holding Office as judge, at the time of
his election but the clerk denied this
The clerk said he had issued Heens
certificate and the judge would re-
ceive it tomorrow morning. Kalauo-
kalani said that he took the action
he did because Attorney General
Irwin gave it as his opinion that the
men are ineligible for supervisors and
it is understood also that Judge
Wilmington and A. G. NJ. Robertson
had advised the clerk to take such
action. Governor Mccarthy and At
torney General Irwin both have said
that the clerk has not got leg to
stand on and should have issued Pa
checo and Kumalae their certificates
and then let the question of their
eligibility be settled in court. Pa
checo and Kumalae are preparing for
a legal battle for the Offices, Pa
checo intimates strongly that he
would seek Kalauokalani's impeach-
ment. Judge e. NJ. Watson former
associate justice said "Kalauokalani
is liable to impeachment as the law
requires that the election certificates
be issued to candidates receiving the
highest votes"
Attorney General Irwin has filed
four complaints against City and
County Clerk Kalauokalani based on
the latters action in Withholding
election certificates from Pacheco and
Kumalae and issuing them to Fogarty
and Sheldon. Irwin will soon call
the grand jury to consider the matter
of criminal action for NAL sea sac
with impeachment planned.

fcerS Will Assist In Spreading
Suffrage Education

Quietly, yet nevertheless deter
minedly, a band of nearly $50 women,
representative of the best womanhood
of Maui, gathered last Saturday af-
ternoon at the Kahului community
house and formed suffrage organic
alton which will be known as the
Maui Womans Suffrage Association,
Its aims as stated were that it would
be for the formation of an influential
non-political, non-sectarian associa-
tion with view to securing equal
and full political rights to the women
of Hawaii
Tells How Best To Fight
Mrs. A. c. Bowdish was named
temporary chairman and introduced
Rev. A. w. Palmer of Honolulu, who
in an able speech told the women his
reasons for advocating woman
suffrage and what they should do in
their fight for the franchise. Giving
these reasons he said:
do not make suffrage a sex war
Don't go about attacking the
men. Every clean, decent and
right thinking man in the com
munity is perfectly willing that
you should vote.
Don't give up because a miserable
weak legislature that we ought
all to be ashamed of didn't give
you the vote.
Beware of partisan politics. New
er let any political party fasten
a collar around your neck. New
er get in a position where any
one can tell you to vote a straight
ticket.
"Open your meetings to speakers
from all parties and give them al
chance to tell you what they
are going to do for you.
BE bigger than any political party

all from Maui to send exhibits that

who feel that on ac9rNot of the dry
weather their flowers are not good
enough to make a showiag, should re-
member that the other islands have
been dry also and that Maui stands
as good a chance in competing with
flower growers from the other islands
as any of them.

lieves Governor McCarthy-ln In
terview With Editor Cooper Points
To Foresight And Hustle Of HilO
(By WILL. ]. COOPER)

HONOLULU, June "A few weeks
ago the Maui News, commenting edi-
torially upon the appropriations by
the last legislature, called attention
to the big haul made by the island of
Hawaii, as compared with most of the
other parts of the territory, particular
ly Maui. 1t pointed out the reason
for this-namely that Hawaii has a
live bunch of hustlers who not only
know what they want but who go af-
ter it in a way that generally is
successful. By way of comparison it
pointed to the weak way Maui has
had in the past of backing up her
delegation in the legislature.
1t seems that the Hilo live wires
were inclined to take exception to
that editorial, constituting it as a dig
at Hawaii inspired through jealousy.
first heard this from Governor Nc
Carthy, few days ago during the
course of an interesting talk with
him on Maui affairs in particular and
territorial matters in general. The
Governor stated that the matter was
brought to his attention during his
recent visit to the Big Island, and
that he had the pleasure of setting
the good people of the Rainy City
straight by interpreting the editorial
correctly for them to the effect that it
was in no sense a slam at Hilo but
rebuke and an example to our own
people if we expect to get proper
recognition.
Governor Mccarthy then went on
to confirm what the Maui News had
said with a lot of figures showing that
Hilo had managed to get several
times as much loan fund and general
fund appropriations as had all the

Court Officials
Have A Busy Week
Several Divorces And A Criminal Case
-Chinaman Could Not Resist The
Bright Lights OF Lahaina And Has
To Serve Long Jail Sentence

The courthouse was quite busy this
week with several divorce cases and
a criminal action. Anna Pedro sec
ured a divorce from John Pedro on
the ground OF extreme cruelty, while
Rosa Perry's grounds on which she
secured a divorce from her husband
Botita Perry, were desertion.
Ku Pau couldn't tear himself away
from Lahaina long enough TO serve
his probation and consequently is now
languishing in Jail, 1t seems that Ku
Pau was charged sometime ago by a
japanese with assault and battery, to
which he entered a plea of guilty.
Judge Mckay sentenced him to leave
the district of Lahaina for 15 days,
with the penalty that his failure to do
ment Ku Pau went away but Is days
was an awful long time TO be eXiled
from home, mother and the boys, and
before the time limit was up Ku Pau
could resist the temptation no longer
and returned to his old haunts, The
culprit was brought into court We'd
nesday, and fined 5000, but not hav-
ing the needed sum, will have to serve
his time in Jail at the rate of one dol,
lar a day, which means the balance
of the year for Ku.

Suction From Ditch
Causes Boys Death

Johnny Palapala, a young Hawaiian
boy went fishing, and met his death.
Whether he got big fish and got so
excited he fell in or whether the
fish pulled him in is not known, but
it is hoped that the mystery will be
solved at the inquest which is to be
held today.
The lad, who is IL years old went
fishing Tuesday at the reservoir of
the Hawaiian Commercial G. Sugar
Company in company with another
boy. He fell in the water in some
way, and the suction from the feed
pipe for the bitches pulled him under
and into the ditch. He was found
Thursday in ditch on the Puunene
fields, the body having travelled
through about five miles of bitches.
The inquest will be conducted by
Deputy Sheriff George H. Cummings
who has appointed the following to
act as ,coroner's jury: Dan Carey,
Walter Barreus, L. B. Kaumehiewa,
Ed. N Benjamin, John Koai, Ho

Large Fair Exhibit
Is Sent By Maui

Part of the exhibit which Maui will
send to the Territorial Fair left We'd
lesday. The packages included 4S
bottles of fruit juices, $50 jars Of jel-
lies, jams, preserves and honey, knit
ed work, dresses, ladies hats, lauha-
la mats and shampoo jellies and pow
1ers. This was for the economic Sec
ton. A number of jars of butter,
lard and candy will go on the boat
tomorrow, and two watermelons of
90 and 65 pounds each, the pride Of
several Japanese gardens. Next We'd
lesday shipments of cut flowers and
% homemade cakes will be sent.
Maui people have worked faithfully to
have good exhibit and there in hope
hat the Island may be the winner Of
a number of first prizes.
Mrs. II. A. Baldwin has already left
for Honolulu and will personally over
see the placing of the Maui exhibits
so that there may be as favorable a
showing as possible. Maui residents
consider themselves particularly for
tunate in having as their chairman a
woman who is as interested in seeing
that Maui gets a square deal, and
feel confident that they will have
better chance than has been the case
in past years.
