Swinging into the last week of the

dates of Maui are all busy. One
party spent last night on Mulokai and
others are working the personal in

Island. The candidates who went 10

win and George F. Cooke, the two
last named going to inspec- the Ia
waii Homes project.
Friday night will see the end of the
campaign and the chief meeting is
expected to be in Wailuku as usual
with an opportunity given each can
didate to present his last claims to
the suffrages of his hearers. Market
street will be, also as usual the
place of spell binding.
Fight Grows Hotter
Partisans of the three Republican
candidates for delegate on the Repub-
lican ticket are putting forth the
claims of their favorites loudly and
expressing confidence. Here on Maui
it is apparent that Lyman has cut in
to Wise strength somewhat, to what
extent is not determined, but Wise
supporters say he will have a hand
some majority, nearly as many votes
as his two opponents combined.
Wise has sent out two messages
from the hospital in Honolulu, one
asking his friends to ignore the
"slush fund" talk of King. The lat
ter's talk has injured his own cause
and turned voters from him
Lyman has been working a most
persistent campaign which resulted
in an unpleasant episode in Wailuku.
He called with Peruvia Goodness on
Mrs. Sarah Buck, a supporter of King
and tried to swing her to his cause.
| She says he remained and argued un-
til nearly six o'clock from about four,
| did not leave when she asked him to
and that she finally led him to the
door and out, not converted to his
| cause but urging that her friends vote
| against Lyman whether or not they
vote for King.
For the unexpired term in the SEN
ate Goodness, Walsh and Kaumehei-
wa all express confidence. Goodness
appears to have the edge on his
rivals if the views of the rank and
file mean anything.
For representative it is generally
conceded that Paschoal and Clark
will be put over but as to the others
the claims are conflicting.
Oahu For Wise
Personal observations of the writer
on Oahu indicate Wise will re-
ceive a substantial plurality. King
seems to be losing steadily. Lyman
will get the more radical" element.
From Kauai, reports received indi,
cate Wise but it is a foregone con-
clusion that Lyman will get a large
vote in his Hawaii home which Wise
will have to overcome elsewhere.
Raymond Confident
In Honolulu Friday, Dr. j. H. Ray
mond expressed his confidence of
securing the Democratic nomination.
He is making strong speaking cam
paign, two or four talks a night. Ray
mond says he is convinced that Jar
rett's strength has been overestimat.
