Under the guidance of tbe editors
of the Japanese daily newspapers, the
Hawaii 8hinpo. Nippu Jiji. Hawaii
Hochi and Hawaii Cboho. tbe mass
meeting for higher wages for Japanese
plantation laborers will be held to
night in the Japanese school on Nun
anu street commencing at 7 o'clock.
une Hundred leaders and delegates
from the Japanese circle, It is report
ed, will be in attendance. Besides
this number, merchants, bankers, phy
sicians, hsckdrivers and automobile
drivers and others have been in
vited. R. Murakami, of the Hawaii Chobo.
reported this morning that a resolu
tion of special Importance will be
presented to the meeting for discus
sion. He did not state, however, what
it is.
According to reports current in Jap
anese circles, the merchants, physi
cians, bankers, hackdrivers and auto
mobile drivers, saloon keepers and
others are expected to turn out at to
night's meeting.
Should they refuse to responJT.
the call of the four dailies, their busi
ness, it is said, will be boycotted. On
this, account it is certain that the
meeting tonight will be one of the
biggest that has been witnessed In
Honolulu.
Although Francis B. Smith has been
known as an amateur fisherman, the
real anglers will have to take off
their hat to him, as yesterday he
landed the record kaku for Hawaii.
Fishing oft Kaena Point, he landed a
kaku which weighed 53 pounds.
Accompanied by Commodore Mac
farlane, Honolulu's well knows
yachtsman, and Ed Paris, another
well known yachtsman and angler.
Smith started out. Paris and Smith
started on Saturday at 1 o'clock on
the Crete, owned by Commodore
Macfarlane. They trolled along Kaena
Point until dark and then Joined
Smiah, who had come oyer in the
Mollilou. The party spent the night
on the Mollilou, and the next morning
about 6:20 started trolling. There
the party met a number of anglers
in the Sea Scout.
Smith, with the assistance of Paris
and Macfarlane, landed the kaku after
a hard fight The fish was carried
about three miles before landing.
Many times it lamped out of the
water in an effort to shake the hook
Off.''' -. -
Paris is an old hand at landing a
fish, and the. party are now reced
ing the congratulations of their
friends. Commodore Macfarlane gave
an example of his ability to handle
a yacht on the Teturn trip. Accprd
ins to Information received tbe kaku
measured five feet and four inches
from tin to tip. This is considered to
be a record for Hawaii. After the
record catch, it Is doubtful If Smith
will still be cailedas amateur.
