Polo Game
Fine Program of Sports Being
nareil. Dance in Evening
portant Society Event
Pre-lm-
tintc nn elaborate program is
being arranged by the Ptiuncne
Athletic- Club for the annual ecle
bration of the Puunoue Harvest
Home day, which will be held next
Saturday. The principal features
of the day will be an important
tennis match on the Puunenc hard
courts in the forenoon, the polo
match between the Maui and Oalut
teams in the afternoon, and the
dance at I'uunene Club house in the
evening. There will bo other sports
bowling, swimming, etc. but the
'program for these features has not
yet been completed.
Most general interest probably
centers in the polo match, which
will bo played on the new - field in
Kcabua, below the Puukolani dairy,
this being the first match to be
played on this court. The Oahu
team will consist of II. G. Hilling
bam, S. A. Baldwin, Harold Castle,
and Walter Macfarlanc. Maui's
team will probably consist of the
usual strong aggregation V. V
Baldwin, Collins, Dave Klomingand
Rico. While the Honolulu players
will doubtless put up a good game,
it is doubtful whether or not they
will be able to win, with Walter
Dillingham and It. W. Shingle
both out. Dillingham is on the
mainland, and Shingle had not ful
ly recovered from the fall be suT
fcred during a recent game with a
cavalry team at Moanalua. Both
teams, however, are practising con
siste'ntly, and the game will be a
good one to watch.
12th Precinct To
Be Subdivided
It is probable that before the pri.
inary election is held on September
12th, the present 12th precinct of
;ho county will bo subdivided, to
the great convenience of a large
number of voters. At present resi
dents living as far cast as Kakipi
gulch are obliged to travel tollama-
kuapoko, a distance of tn miles or
more, in order to cast their ballots;
while all the new voters in theKui
aha homestead section are from 5 to
G miles distant from the polling
place.
The matter was taken up at a
meeting of the board of supervisors
this weel;, and a petition will be
circulated at once, asking that the
secretary m the territory make the
change. According to County Clerk
Kaae, who took the matter up while
in Honolulu last week, nothing is
known in the Territorial department
about a former petition on the same
subject, which, presumably has been
lost.
Tho new precinct will probably
extend from Maliko to Kakipi gulch
and from the new Hamakua ditch,
as the upper boundary, to tho sea;
with the polling place at Pauwcla.
Kauai Likely to Ask
For 1915 Convention
The program shaped out for the
Civic Convention on Maui October
3-5 looks all right, and much good
should come of the session. Kauai
should, and probably will, bo well
represented there and what is the
matter with Kauai getting tho next
convention? The Garden Isle is
noxt in line for it. Garden Island.

Maui Citizens Petition Government
To Sub-Divide Tract in Makawao
District Say Conditions Are
Favorable.
Thirty-two citizens of Maui, most
of whom are residents of Makawao
district, have filed an application
with the Territorial laud commis
sioner, asking tnat tlie government
lands of Piiholo, in the Makawao
district, be opened for settlement,
in lots of not less than 20 acres.
The signers of the petition' are:
Joseph G. Anjo, Joe Ambrose,
M. M. Fcitcira, Manuel Dolitn,
William Cooper, M C. Ferreira,
Joe Kernaiides, II; L. Achuue, J.
G. Freitas, M. M. Morreira, Man

co. Jose I Phillips, Jr., John Do
lim, John Gonsalves, A. II. Liloa,
Jr., Louis II. Sylva.
The petitioners declare that the
lands desired are eminently suited
to lioinesteading, and will support
them and their families. They say
among other things;
"In support of our petition we
submit, that the land is very fertile
and rich in soil. Plenty of mois
ture rainfall heavy. Any kind
of garden truck will grow there.
Dairying and ranching on a small
scale will also be successful on the
land. This we know from the suc
cess of those living on the small
kuleanas in that vicinity having
the same character of land and the
same altitude.
''We believe it to be for the best
interests of the Territory and its
people that the Piiholo lauds be
homesteaded. We ask no special
privileges except such as are by
law allowed. We want homes for
our families and want to develop
our lots to such an extent that
they may provide us with the
means of sustenance without ever
lastingly slaving' for others. We
firmly believe in the productive
character of the land, and also.hav
iug confidence in our individual
ability to do everything requisite
in the premises, just as the law re
quires, we present this, our peti
tion, with the humble request that
it receive your favorable consider
ation."

THE MAUI NEWS, SATURDAY,
At October
Elections?
It is reported that the voters of
Maui are to be again asked to vote
on an issue of county bonds for
substantially the same purposes as
proposed in the plebiscite election,
which was held on June 27, and
failed to cany. According to the
report, Governor Pinkliam is taking
an active interest in the matter,
and the proposition will be on the
general ticket in the October elect
ions. "
As will be remembered, much
less than half of the registered vote
of the county was polled in the
plebiscite election, and although
the votes cast were by a large
majority in favor of the bonding
proposition, the measure failed. A
good many friends of the idea be
lieve that a mistake was made in
holding the special election, in
stead of waiting until the regular
election, and hope, by the larger
vote which will undoubtedly be
cast, to see it carry. .
Hawaiian Says Kuliio
Has Failed Hawaiians
"Kuliio, holding the highest posi
tion in the Territory, could, as De
legato to Congress, do much to pro
mote the prosperity of Hawaii, and
in consequence the prosperity of the
native Hawaiians. lie is in a posi
tion to do a great deal, but he docs
nothing. On the other hand, much
of the recent activity at Washington
has been in collaboration with the
Democrats in attacking former
Governor Frcar and the sugar in
terests, attacks that helped hurt all
Hawaii when the tariff bill came up
in the- new Congress. It is because
Kuliio has failed Hawaii and the
Hawaiian people that Iain opposing
him for rcnomination. He has had
his chance and failed. That is why
a lot more Hawaiians aio opposing
him."
A. St. C. Piianaia, sy.ys the Ad
vertiser, put the situation in the
above words, speaking for himself
and for a number of other leading
Hawaiians who arc active members
of the Charles A. Rico campaign
committee; for which activity Desha,
Wise and a few others are calling
them "traitors."
' If however," added Piianaia
"Kuhio should bo renominated and
is shown to bo the choice of the Re
publican party, I will support him
I am a Republican first and a Rice
man second."
Prohibition Progress.
Nine states have already adoptcti
statewide prohibition. Of the other
thirly-nino states so much territory
is "dry" that more than -17,000,000
of our population are now living uir
tier prohibition, the saloonless area
of the United Scates being seventy-
one per cent, of the entire country
At the present time, five states, Wash
ington, Oregon, California, Colorado
and Virginia are engaged in eam-
paignsfor state-wide prohibition next
November. Two others, Idaho and
Arizona arc planning for like cam
paigns. Iowa, Texas, Utah and Flor
ida are working to secure state-vide
prohibition next year. Other states
are stirring in the matter. People are
everywhere aroused and tho prohibi
tion idea advances by leap3 ant'
bounds.

Dispute Over Hogs
Prosecuting Attorney Case will
leave for Pukoo, Molokai, thiscvon-
ing for tho purpose of investigating
a general mix-up regarding tho
ownership of a lot of hogs. It is
roported that there are scvoral
claimants for tho same lot o
animals, and a lot of hard feeling
has resulted in tho otherwiso peace
ful neighborhood. The matter wil
probably bo aired before District
Magistrate Conradt.

Cooke Again
Says "Rice"
"You may state that I am for
Charles A. Rice for delegate to
Congress and am Working and in
tend to work for him tooth and
nail."
This statement was made in the
office of The Garden Island last
Saturday afternoon by J. P. Cooke,
head of Alexander and Baldwin.
ContinuUig, Mr. Cooke said: "I
am unqualifiedly opposed to Kuhio,
for I believe Ins usefulness at
Washington is done. In- Charles
. Rice, we have a man who can
represent the Republican party and
all interests of, this Territory ac-
ceptablv and well and I want to
see him elected."
Asked what he would do in- case
Rice should be defeated in the
primaries, Mr. Cooke shrugged his
shoulders doubtfully. I would
even then tinder no circumstances
support Kuliio, and I would not
support McCaudless. In fact
guess l wouitl De lett about as
many others would be left high
and dry. But it will not come to
that. Rice will be the nominee of
the Republcau party, and he will
elected. Garden Island.
Bcrger's Band To
Give Two Concerts
Burger's Hawaiian band, which
will accompany the Shrincrs from
Honolulu to Maui next Saturday,
will give two free concerts during its
stay here. One of these will bo
given in the Wailuku baseball park,
where tho Wailuku Sugar Company
has offered to supply the materials
and erect a band stand for tho occa
sion.
Tho other concert may bo given
on Sunday, the 23rd, in front of tlie
court house, although it is possible
that it also may be held in tho base
ball park.
The Island Electric company has
agreed to install free the necessary
lights at the band stand, and a sub
scription list headed by F. F. Bal
dwin, for $10, now being circulated,
insures a fund for thesuitable enter
tainment of the band boys, who
have not been on Maui for a num
ber of years.
