July 4th Brings Largest Crowd
In Years to Witness Races
at the Track
PUNAIIOUS OUT BATTED
fjj It may now bo fairly conceedod that Maui has won the right to
claim the Fourth of July as race day. True, Uilo was not re pre
seutod at Spreckels Park this year, but the next Fourth of July
will doubtless see a string of fast ones from Hilo on the Kahulu
track. For several years past, the Maul Racing Association have
worked hard to build up raciug, and thisyear's races spelfsuccess.
One thing is needed now, and that is that the lovers of clean rac
ing on Maui should join the Association, attend the meetings for the
election of officers and geueaally assist in the management of the
affairs of the Association. Whether with just causa or not, there
has beoti some criticism of the events on the present Fourth. To
.obviate this in the future the membership of the Association
should look well to it that the ollicers, including the executive com
tuiittee und the judges are square men, of whom plenty can be found
on Maui, uud Maui will have a big race day every year.
3Q The Advertiser is taking up the fight against certain companies
who are operating cn the Isl tnris, and tnere is no question but
that all the papers on the Islands should give more thau passing
notice to some of these companies. While the principles on whicn
some of them are based are beyond criticism, and while some of the
men interested in these companies are above reproach, still if the
amount of money paid into these companies bv subscribers who
afterwards forfeit their advances were trulv known, the result
would be startling. There is a wrong somewhere in the matte
which shovld be righted.
Q The game of political chess in the United Slates will now be
gin. The republicans, democratis, populists, prohibitionists nd
social-labor party have each put tickets in the field,' so that five pres
idential candidates . are in the runuing. Some of these parties have
no hope or expectation of winning, but simply desire to vote a prin
eiple. But their following will necessarily weaken the two leading
parties. The Republicans however are so strong that nothing save
a coalition of all the other parties could defeat them, and as thati
'Impossible this year, Roosevelt will call "checkmate." on the
fourth of November.
g For a second time the News desires to editorially discuss the
proposition of tobacco raising in the Islands. The reason why
Virginia. Kentucky ana Missouri successfully raise tobacco, aside
from soil and climatic conditions, Is that these, localities have heavy
night dews which thicken and sweeten tLe tobacco leaf. De
pnve any country of night dew, and a thin, aored tobacco leaf will
result. Still It is certain that there are sections on the Islands
, where wrapper tobacco leaf can be raised, but it will require years
of patient experiment to develop this Industry,
He who causes two blades of grass to grof where only grew
, before is a public benefactor, and the man who Introduces suacess
.f ul wheat and hay growing on Maui deserves oredit for Jt. The in
troduction of macaroni wheat and speltz hay by farmer Bailey is a
.matter of extreme interest to Maui people, as it will add largely to
the material wealth and, prosperity to the grain raising sections of
Maui. Others should emulate Mr, Bailey's example in the matter
of experimenting with these crops.

The. Maul people have a lesson to learn from the races and
ball game on the Fourth, and that is that absolute fairness is nec-
cessary to maintain successful sports of any kind. One or two1
decisions on the track and also conduct on the ball ground have
elicited unfavorable criticism. Without discussing' the right or
.wronar of these criticisms, the News would point out that in future
extra efforts should be put forth to give fair sport.
Now that holiday is over, everyone should settle down to busi
oess. There Is Much to be done. Improvement Associa tions should
take up their work vith naw zeal., Those interested i'a rubber, in
xtiheapples, in bananas, in sisal and other minor industries should
get to work along lines which willdevelope Maui. Thfjre Ls a bright
future for Maui, if its people work for its interests a $ they should.
$K Did you ever hear of Williamsport? May be not. The peiu
ltrity about Williamsport is that its citizens have, subscribed $215,
000 as a guarantee fund to induce manufacturin g firms to establish
plants there. Wailuku is not just at present - prepared to put up
that amount, still its citizens can by combined, efforts do much to
build up and improve our beautiful littlo town.
The people of Maui are still waiting patiently for the govern
ment to take up its work on Maui and 'ipend some of the money
appropriated for our public improvements. True the Department
of Public, Works has its hands full, bv.t'taeie it is nearly tho middle
0; J uly, and but little has bean done &0 far in the matter. Patience
will soon cease to be a virtue.

Both the races and the bail giune
were more than well intended, in lat i
the crowd at the race track was th
argest in years some 750 entering th.
irates which reflects credit tothenew-
v organized Race Association and tli
present corps of officials, who wen
untiring 111 their efforts to give an
ild time race meet, fcaeh and every
one of the officials knew their respec
tive duties so that, there were no
hitches in the handling of the specta
tors or the starting of the various-
events. .
Tho Hawaiian Band was more than
appreciated and the grandstand
spectators enthused to the extent 01
keeping time to the various selections
while some of the sporting element
helped out with a little manuwahi
ragtime.
The band boys do not enjoy these
jaunting trips as well as those wh"
are so fortunate as to be the listen
ers, as Captain Berger has the rep
utation of giving the fiubiio their full
quoto of music much to the discom
fort of the boys who would rather
have fewer selections and more op
porlun'ty of mingling with their
friends.
Caterer Chapman was on hand, with
an inviting display for the inner man,
and with his assistants handled thi
crowd to good advantage.
There were some slight. differences
which came, up during the meet in
which the public did not side with the
judges, but as the latter have the ad
vantage of position for deciding and

wonder being that no one was serious

At one time the track was gen
erously sprinkled with loose tiorses
which interfered with the relay riders

to come into contact with mother

The thrte mile dash with Gcrnldine

who had Racine Murphy slated to
win.

Time 1 :53.
Wells Park held a goodly crowd of
base ball enthusiasts to witness thp
game between the Punalious of Mono
lulu and the ''All Maui team.
The "Students from Oahu came
to Maui to tench the ball tossers here
how to play the game. Great pride
was displayed by some of the Hono
lulu "rooters" in poiiiling out their
best mau and telling of his "mysterious
ways" which placed him in a class by
himself.
The Oahus expected to be able to
proclaim "We came, We saw,We con
quered," but the Mamtes satd "Nit,"
and bv their playing verified that
they meant Nit.
The'game was a spirited one from
the time the first man went up to the
bat until the last run was in and the
All Mauis won out by four runs to the
good.
borne allowances must be made in
the playing of tho Punahous from thp
fact that they were just off the steam
er and the ground still swayed be
neath them. Some of thcmhad'also had
that troubled feeling "en voyage
which made them frequently look over

Again little or bo practioe was had
as the boys were Interested specta
tors at the races, thus the ''ti eld wi s
new and strange to them. 1
Taking these facts into consider
ation they put up as good a game as
could be expected, aud if they had not
exhibited so much confidence In being
able .o "shelve" the Mauls, they .would
not have had to stand so much joShing
by the routers and grand standehs
The All Manis had no trouble in find
ing the balls banded out by Desha and
Ahreusbut were a trifle confused by
those delivered by Babbit. This was
easily -accounted for trom the fac
that both Desha and Ahrens deliver
a pretty speedy ball which was just
vhatthe Mams wanted and were ac
customed to, while Babbit's deliv
ery was directly opposite, he de
pending more on his curves and up
shoots to do the work. Yet, regard
lc?s of this being the first game the
All Mauis have played together as a
team it demonstrated that they could
out bat the Punahous, while on the
other baud the battery of the
All Mauis made very little attempt
to "strike out" depending rather up
on the support of their fielders.
A rather protracted argument was
hnd in the last half of the seventh in
ning, with tho All Mauis at the bat,
which came near winding up the'game
then and there.
N. Krueger knocked a high fly out
center fielder's way which left fielder
Woods in his eagerness to get a put
out tried to haul in, but allowed to get
through his hands. This error of
Woods in trying to intercept a put
out rightfully belonging to center
fielder Williams allowed Crowell to
make the only score for the Mauis
that inning. T. Krueger soaked the
ball for a safe base which he got on a
fielder's choice who preferred to try
and stop his brother at third. He was
called out by umpire Williams which
the Mauis refused to stand for, claim
ing tlie.'r man was safe, and so de
clared by base umpire Gage.
After considerable cheering and
hissing by the grandstandcrs, holler
ing and incoherant talk on the part of
the routers, it. was dually learned
that the difference of opinion between
the two teams was on account of tho
All Mauis plaving under the 1003
rules while the vii-itors wero playing
under the 1004. Tho runner was fi
nally allowed to hold his base and the
game proceeded perhaps a littlo
more spiritedly, nnd with determina
tion on the part of both teams to wiu
the game.
After the game the usual saluta
tions were given and exchanged and
the Students were given a rousing
luau at Sheriff Baldwiu's residence
and seut home with full dinner nails
and each and every one declaring they
would not have missed the trip and
extending a cordial invitation to the
Mauite to visit the campus of the
Punahous.
The following is the batting order
of the two teams and their accredited
scoring.
