the campaign from the same plat
form. Besides Lyman and King only
the house aspirants from the outside
districts and John Hoopale were heard
Plans Revised
Campaign plans shifted rapidly and
without notice at last week end. On
the return from Kalaupapa it was de-
cided to abandon the trip that was
to have been taken Sunday to Molo-
kai and thence to the Hama district
on the Makaiwa. There were meet
ings held in West Maui Thursday
night instead of Friday and on the
latter night there was a hastily ar
ranged meeting at Paia. Saturday
night came the meeting at Wailuk1
for which there had been little pub
licity so the crowd was nothing like
those that turned out in the Baldwin
campaign.
| Lyman Speaks First
! Norman Lyman was the first speak
er on Saturday night and spoke at
length both in English and Hawaiian
Jhe latter not being an Interpretation
OF his first remarks but differing quite
materially. In his English speech
Lyman told of his experience and his
quallhcations for the Office for which
he seeks the nomination He pledp-
eu hlmselt to work for the best in
terests OF all the people of Hawaii nei
especially in the matter of securing
appropriations for roads and for
schools and funds adequately to
carry out the Hawaiian Homes pro.
! Ject which he criticised as being too
small at present to achieve important
results Immediately since only Ten or
| a dozen families were to be put on
! the land.
John Hoopale followed and after
MN came Senator King, the other
candidate for delegate, John Wise NOT
| being represented at the meeting nv
| proxy.
King Presents Case
hlng also explained his uualifica-
tons for the office, his knowledge of
the needs of the territory, his legis
| latlVe experience, his acuuaintance
| with the mainland. He pledged him
self to work for the best good of all
| 10 strive to get Hawaii its right of
inclusion IN appropriation bills and
! generally to have its needs met. He
went at some length into his record
as a senator answering some charges
| which he says had been made hv
| leutenants of Lyman. He urged all
voters to go to the polls.
by the time he closed it was late
ana the audience drifted rapidly away
before the other speakers had time
to address them.
Wise Has Able Proxy
AT the Paia meeting Senator Rice
spoke Tor John Wise, answering
charges that large campaign fund
was belng raised for Wise in Honolu-
lu' Rice said he saw Wise in Queens
hospital about three weeks before
ana did not think he would live I'm.
III atter election. He saw him again
ABOUT the middle of this week and he
was better so the speaker believed
he would recover, but he was unable
TO speak for himself.
Every man in public life makes
friends and enemies and if there is
large campaign fund being raised
and spent on Wise's behalf it is be-
ing done by Wise's friends. The fact
that he has such friends, men who
stand by him in time of sickness and
seek TO conduct a campaign for him
at their own expense speaks volumes
for the man who has won such friend
ship.
Today the party goes to Hama for
the campaign in that district, return.
ing tomorrow on the Kilauea.
