COUNTY SHOW CRY

has about decided that it will be im- j
possible to furnish exhibitors with all 1
the room wanted and that they will ,
have to be made to comply with the
limitations of the present grounds and
buildings.
Cameron intends to go to Honolulu i
next week to see the Honolulu ex-1
hibitors and to allot to them space
he has left for outside exhibits. While

ments about securing more tents for

fair. I

various charges which will be made for exhibitors' space and for ad

Exhibitors. In addition to the charge to exhibitors for space,
exhibitors' employees will have passes costing $1.00 each for only
such employees as may be necessary to handle their exhibit during
the fair. This of course will not be applicable where the nature
of the exhibit is such as not to require personal attention of the ex
hibitor in the discretion of the manager of the Fair.
Charges for Space.
A charge of 10c. per square foot for the first 500 square feet,
and 5c. per square foot for excess spare beyond 500 square feet
under cover of tent.

10 of gross receipts, in the discretion of the manager of the Fair.

Eben Low Testifies
For Inter-Island
For the first time since the hearings
before the Public Utilities Commission
on the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company's rates commenced a month
ago, something of a picturesque nature
was injected into the last hearing
by Eben P. Low, superintendent of the
Oahu shipping Company.
Low was put on the stand as a wit
ness for the steamship company, and
succeeded in explaining to the com
mission that much of the injury sus
tained by cattle was not due to the
steamship company. Incidentally he
took a number of falls out of the Ha
waii Meat i Company, and intimated
that no matter how little the shippers
receive for their cattle the prices re
mains the same, if not higher.
Low declared that much of the
bruising of cattle was caused by rop
ing and driving them to the boats. He
believed that little harm was done on
the boats and that the steamship
company should not be held' respons
ible for injury to cattle.
Among the points brought out by
Low was the fact that it is more hu
mane to handle steers by the horns
than with (tackle around the body, as
is now the practise:
"The stronges part of a bullock is
his neck," said Low, "and I.' believe
that the cattle should be slung from
the horns. That is the way HUs done
In South America. I have tnr1"" e
operation, and find that it is Jot'
seconds from the time the anim.t is
lifted from his feet till he i placed on
his feet again. With the body tackle,
after the animal Is landed on his feet.
It is difficult to get the sling from his
body." t
MAUI'S SONGS MADE BIG HIT
Maui was well, represented at the
civic convention and twenty-two dele
gates' and several ladies came in
Hilo. The Maui people bad some fine
songs prepared and as they were all
sung to the air of songs well known
to the people of the islands, the sing
ing went weW and made a hit. Mrs.
Daniel H. Case, of Wailuku, Maui,
wife of the delegate of that name,
composed the words for the songs.
There were two that took the fancy
of the whole bunch of delegates and
they were. Sweet Maui, to the tune of
Sweet Marie and My Dear Old Valley
Isle, to the tune of. My Old Kentucky
Home. Hawaii Herald.

OBJECTION VOICED TO
SETTLEMENT CAMPAIGNING
That political campaigning in the
lener settlement at Molokai begun
now after cessation of eight years,
will be a seriously detrimental wing
to the inmates is the decleration con
tained in a letter to the star-uunern
from a prominent resident of Maui
and one familiar with conditions at
the settlement.
This citizen, who renuests that his
name be not used, praises a recent
editorial in tne sstar-uunetin wnicn
criticised the decision of the terri-
tnrlnl hoard of health to allow Politi
cal campaigning in the leper settle
ment.
"Yniir reaRon for criticising the
arttnn of the hoard of health are all
well founded and to the point." he
rites. He says that in past years
the campaigning created much dis
nnrii nmnner the inmates and that for
their welfare candidates should keep
out of the settlement."
No criticism is made of the candi
ntpa whn are cninir to campaign on
this part of Molokai, but it is empha
sized that deleterious results of the
excited debates and stump speeches
are apparent in the settlement for
months after the elections are over.
It was at the instance or Dr. J. ti.
Raymond, who is a candidate for the
anno to that the hoard of health re
versed' its attitude maintained for
eight year and decided to allow candi
dates in the settlement. It is said
that some of the candidates are re
fusing to avail themselves of this op
portunity, and the Star-Bulletin has
been informed that H. A. Baldwin,
who is In the race for the senate in
opposition to Dr. Raymond, has de
clined to go to the leper settlement
because he doe's not think political
campaigning 1b wise there.
Hanan Is Advised
How He Can Help
New York Society Man Informrd That
Molokai Settlement Is Manitaired
By Federal Government, But That
There Is Opportunity For Benevo
lent Aid
If Talbot Hanan, the multi-millionaire
of New York and Newport, Rhode
Island, really wants to aid the inmates
of the Mo".okal Settlement, the board
of health has pointed the ways Jn
a letter to the promotion committee,
reports the Advertiser.
The communication from the board
was written by Kirk B. Porter, secre
tary, at the direction of Dr. J. S. B.
Pratt, head of the board, in answer to
a letter from the committee conveying
a copy of a letter from trie wealthy
easterner. In his letter Hanan saici
that having passed througn Honolulu
several years ago, he had retained an
oivio fnr the tilace and wished to do
something to help. He himself suggest
ed that he would like nesi or an to
assist the inmates of the settlement,
and asked for information as to the
needs of the place and the patients un
der treatment there.
Porter writes that while
the government supports the settle
ment and provides an mat is ri-qumuc
for Us maintenance, the management

demand for phonographs and records,

as these things also must come from

that the proceeds of the big benefit
