THE MAUI NEW, SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1913.
Honolulu Letter
(Continued from Tage I.)
to settle it; it belongs to the nation
al congress rather than a local law
making ImkIv. I am not familiar
enough with the needs of the terri
tory in that respect to venture an
opinion hut, if there is to be a
chance for commission government
within a few years I see no reason
for any addition to the member
ship of the legislative body at this
time. If congress believes we should
have reapportionment after the
facts have been placed in its hands,
let it go at that.
CI I Y MA1NAGF.R.
There has been some talk about
the selection of a City Manager,
and a senator asked me this morn
ing if I could tell him what there
is in the city requiring a manager.
We have an electric light plant, he
said, that is not big enough to light
the city as it should be. Wc have
no markets directly under the city
management, as markets go, no
telephone companies, no gas com
panies and no lines of transporta
tion. So after all what is there
here that will require a city man
ager? A matter for investigation, I
undei stand, is the quarantine sta
tion. Some who are in positions
to know, said the board does not
conduct it as it is intended by the
letter of the law, but in just what
respect, he did not disclose. An
other investigation is the matter of
Kufus Lyman, and it seems to me
the meddlers in llilo are going out
of their way to put him and his
family to annoyance. It is true
enough, I am told that Kufus might
have told a lot more than he did,
and one of the vcy men who is now
trying to add to his discomforts
would not have come out with clean,
skirts if he had opened out on him.
There is nothing in the law that
prevents the relatives of a prisoner
from sending him meats, and veget
ables; nothing that says he shall
not have reading matter if he can
secure it and, as far as the use of
telephone is concerned, if the men
who reported on him had enough
of their own business to mind,
they would not have time to rub
ber on the line, a disease that in
fects half the population of the
district.

What with Jim Post's chorus
ladies and the chorus of the Grand
"Kyetalian" Opera Company Ho
nolulu has some strangers in town
today. A case of chicken-pox on
the Sierra kept the steamer off port
for an hour an half, while the girls
joshed the men who happened to
be in the launches along side. The
opera house is sold out and there
was about four thousand dollars
advance sale. When Manager
McGreer took the matter in hand,
expecting to bring the company
here, he secured subscriptions
amounting to $14,000 but an ob
jection on the part of the principal
owner of the Liberty theater to
playing the Italians in any other
theater threw the playing over to
Adams of the Opera house. The
Cook lecture was well attended and
the audience was satisfied, not so
much with his claims as a discover
er, for he failed to give them, I
believe, but with his description of
his travels. He is a good talker.
IIN TBR-ISLAINU AFFAIRS
As a result of the strike among
the Inter-Island men one of the
oldest employees of the company
is out of a job and it does not seem
likely that he will get back. Frank
Poor, who was booking clerk in
the office of the company filled the
rather onorous duties of secretary
of the Harbor, and in that position
was obliged to sign some of the
vitrolithic letters that were, pre
sumably, framed by Judge Hum
phreys. Surprise was expressed
that he remained with the company
after the first letter was sent, but
he assured his friends that he was
not the writer, only the perfunctory
signer of them, and the company
understood his position and did
not interfere with him. All of
which was marvelous. The other
day he received a letter from Man
ager Kennedy discharging him for
"disloyalty to the company" that
had employed him for the past
twenty-four years. Otherwise his
record was excellent and I know
the officers of the company disliked
to let him go; possibly it was the
board that turned the screw. Jack
Haglund, another man, a captain in
the company for more than thirty
years, is out in spite of the fact
that about a year ago he was offer
ed a salary of $250 per month to
do nothing on condition that he
would give up the Harbor. But
Jack evidently thought more of the
Harbor than his job, or was under
the impression that the Harbor was
strong enough to battle with the
corporations and win out. And
that is where the Harbor fell down.
I understand everything is running
along all right in spite of rumors
to the contrary; no trouble is an
ticipated by the company, though
I guess there is a weather eye open
at all times looking for squalls.
Among the masses there is a feel
ing against the company, on general
principles, but it is not from a
section so concrete that harm can
follow. Money takes care of
money, and it is the monied inter
ests that make the Inter-Island
strong by hanging to it as a bond
LANDS DEPARTMENT.
Taking to a few members of the
lower house this evening I learned
to my surprise that nothing is ex
pected from the committee appoint
ed to investigated the land matters
of the territory. There seems to
be a lack of confidence in the chair
man who, it is said, can be side

stepped by the other members
whose heart are not in the job.
There was a well formed opinion
among those with whom I talked
that there is room for investigation,
that Hilo is entitled to it, and it
was unfortunate in not getting the
investigation into the right hand:-.
Huddy was appointed chairman of
the committee, but declined to
serve for fairly obvious reasons, so
Silva, he of the town police force,
has the important responsibilities
thrust upon him.
AMATEURS.
I heard a funny thing this after
noon anent the swimming contest
between girl pupils of Punahou
and members of the Y. W. C. A.
Ruth Stacker was among he Pu
nahou girls in the tank for the
tryout, and the result was that
there was nothing to it, for the
tank is but fifteen yards long and
they made that the distance. She
led and finished first. Now comes
the sport side of it. The teacher
in physical culture of the college,
sent for her today and told her she
would have to withdraw from the
contest which is to come off on
Saturday became she had been
receiving training from profession
als. An absolute misstatement. In
the analysis of the affair it seems
that the woman who teaches swim
ming to the Y. W. C. A. girls, is
the one who objected, she being a
sister to the teacher at Punahou.
Both of them, by the way, are
professionals, teaching athletics for
a living while the standing of Ka
hanamoku, Hustace, Keaweatnahi
and Cottrell as swimmers cannot
be questioned. If Kahanamoku
had been a professional he would
not have been allowed to compete
at the Olympia. To me it is a pure
case of cold feett which should not
be tolerated, and bad sportsman
ship. The Stacker girl declined
to withdraw.
