MERCHANTS HUD PLANTERS<br />

HAVE SPICY INTERCHANGE<br />

(From Thursday's Advertiser)<br />

At the annual meeting of the Merchants' Association held<br />

yesterday, interest was centered upon the very full report of the<br />

fommittec appointed to look into the matter of cheaper passenger<br />

lates between this city and the mainland, From time to time<br />

news regarding the progress of the committee's work has been<br />

given to the public but now for the first time a complete report of<br />

the efforts of the association for reasonable rates is printed together<br />

with the correspondence carried on by the committee in its ef-for- ts<br />

to get the existing companies .to lower rates or to induce a<br />

new company to put a steamer line in operation.<br />

From the report it is easy to see that the work of the committee<br />

has not been an unalloyed pleasure. Not only has the committee<br />

had to buck againsj; an unwillingness on the part of the<br />

fteamer lines to lower present rates but according to their report<br />

they have met with opposition at home. The report strongly implies<br />

that the board of directors of the Planters' Association is<br />

controlled by the steamship interests and that no relief can be ex<br />

pected from that source. The correspondence between the Mer-- ,<br />

chants and the Planters is exceedingly interesting reading.<br />

In their last letter-t- o the Planters the committee got into the<br />

labor question very fully. They charge the planters with flooding<br />

the Territory with cheap Asiatic labor and then when the rising<br />

generation of Hawaiian-bor- n Asiatics resulting from this immigration<br />

threatens to become the dominating power in the electorate<br />

Neglecting though not refusing to aid in a proposition which is<br />

designed to attract Americans here to offset the Asiatic population.<br />

A strong plea is made for cheap rates not only to increase tourist<br />

traflic but as a means of getting Americans to come with a view<br />

tc settling. Strong points in favor of Hawaiian agriculture are<br />

made.<br />

DIRECTORS REPORT.<br />

The first business of the association was the report of the<br />

board of directors. This gave a resume of the work of the past<br />

year aim a lorecast ot the coming year's eltorts. The main things<br />

accomplished during tiie past year were the engagement of permanent<br />

headquarters and an assistant secretary for the association,<br />

the sending of a representative to Washington in connection with<br />

the Chamber of Commerce, stopping the furnishing of coal to for<br />

eign warships from the naval supplies, endorsement of the work<br />

ot the Hawaii Promotion Committee, harbor work, reducing of tax<br />

returns, work for Federal Building, abolition of trading stamps,<br />

suits to determine the "cash value" of merchandise.<br />

Among things which the association is working for now are<br />

more equitable distribution of taxation, reduced steamship rates,<br />

railway mail service on the trans-Pacifi- c steamers between here<br />

ind San Francisco and a decision from the Supreme Court on the<br />

question of Corporation Exhibits, by purely mercantile corporations,<br />

whose stocks are not listed or sold to the general public. The re-<br />

port of the directors speaks hopefully of the future as forecasted<br />

by the present bright outlook for the main industry of the islands.<br />

TAXATION REFORM.<br />

After the reading of the report of the Cqmmittec on Reduced<br />

Steamship Rates, printed in full below, the report of the Committee<br />

wiiicu mis ueuu investigating a more cquitauieH system of taxation<br />

was r.ead. This took the form of a bill which may be submitted<br />

to the County Act Commission or to ,the next') Legislature. The<br />

main features aro a one per cent tax on all real property and the<br />

provision that all accounts of merchants mut be kept in the English<br />

language. The bill provides for the examination of accounts<br />

of all merchants whose stock is less in value than a quarter of their<br />

annual sales. Such merchants are taxed upon the amount of their<br />

annual sales. Others are taxed upon the value of their stock.<br />

Heavy penalties are imposed on those making false inventories or<br />

otherwise seeking to evade taxation. This report was not considered<br />

at the meeting yesterday but was laid over until a special<br />

Meeting wnicn is 10 De caneu Dy tne directors soon<br />

At this meeting the report of the committee on publicity and<br />

promotion will also bo considered together with a resolution decrying<br />

the action of the Governor in taking away the licenses of<br />

corporations which have not transgressed any law of the Territory.<br />

The report of the treasurer showed a balance of over $800 in tho<br />

treasury. The last report was that of tho nominating committee<br />

which proposed the following men for directors: Robert Catton,<br />

Humburg, J. A. Kennedy, W. T. Lucas, M.<br />

iYOV- - IJarris- - J-- F'<br />

THE GOVERNOR<br />

IS PREPARING<br />

TWO MESSAGES<br />

Governor Carter will send two messages to the legislature, one<br />

dealing with general subjects of interest to the Territory, and tin.<br />

other accompanying his financial estimates of the needs of the various<br />

departments of the government.<br />

"The law," said the Governor yesterday, "requires me to send a<br />

message to the legislature at the opening of the session, reviewing<br />

the condition of public affairs, and making statements of the general<br />

condition of the Territory. That message, dealing in a large way<br />

with subjects of general interest, such as taxation, the liquor question,<br />

and other matters in which the people and the law makers<br />

are interested, I am now preparing at home, dictating it during the<br />

muimiig I'i'urs anu nammenng it into shape. This message will<br />

treat in a large way upon matters, of public interest.<br />

My estimates of the needs of the various departments will be<br />

submitted with a second message, which I am getting in shape in<br />

my office here in the afternoon. This will accompany the estimates<br />

furnished by the heads of the several departments of the government.<br />

This messairc is rcntiireil hv tlm nrnvisinne nf tim Orrr:,- -<br />

Act, and possibly it should be enough.<br />

"I expect to have the general message ready in a short time,<br />

and will at once put it in the hands of the printer. Then I will<br />

have more time to work on the other, and get the figures into<br />

shape."<br />

The Governor has almost daily sessions with the heads of the<br />

departments, who are all pretty busy getting their reports and .estimates<br />

ready to submit to him. "I am picking up odds and ends,"<br />

said Land Commissioner Pratt yesterday, "getting my estimates<br />

for the Governor ready. That is to1 say. I can hardlv be said to<br />

be getting my report ready( because I am not far enouch advanced<br />

on it yet, but I am driving 'things; that way. I want to get the<br />

affairs of the office in shape, too, to get away on business to the<br />

other islands next week, or the week after. I have to make these<br />

trips ever so Often, you know."<br />

Attorney General Andrews submitted his estimates to the Governor<br />

some days ago, and Superintendent of Public Works Hollo- -<br />

way is in laDOi- - witli 111s. He will not talk about it at all. The other<br />

departments have matters pretty well forward, so that Governor<br />

Carter will probably have all the figures he wants as fast as he gets<br />

ready to use' them.<br />

BIG ISLAND FIREBUG<br />

CONVICTED,ON TRIAL<br />

KAILUA, Kona, Hawaii', Jan. 25.--K- aina Anton, the .<br />

half Spaniard who set fire to the trash Jiouse on Naalehu<br />

found guilty of arson by a jury in Judge Matthewrhan's<br />

court.<br />

This is the first conviction for this crime that has been made<br />

in the Territory since 1803. and the credit for workintr tin the case<br />

against, Kaina Anton belongs altogether to Chester A. Doyle, now<br />

in the employ of the Attorney General's office.<br />

SUGAR MEN INCONSISTENT.<br />

Tour have noticed with<br />

surprise and pleasure the declaration<br />

of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Asso-<br />

ciation, as published In the Pacific<br />

Commercial Advertiser of January IB,<br />

to the effect that they desire to co-<br />

operate with other residents of the<br />

Territory, In many desirable ways, and<br />

that they bellevo that special efforts<br />

should be made to the end of Increas-<br />

ing the American population.<br />

It Is submitted that the attitude of<br />

the Planters' Association in refusing<br />

to entertain either of our proposals to<br />

them, Inconsistent with such decla-<br />

ration, we beg to suggest that the<br />

guarantee of freight, or support to a<br />

subsidy as nsked for, would present<br />

to the minds of your committee a con<br />

vincing proof of sincerity and good<br />

faith.<br />

"With reference to the disavowal<br />

a desire to fill this Territory with<br />

cheap labor to the exclusion of Amer-<br />

ican labor, it Is submitted that<br />

has already been thoughtlessly done to a<br />

point of extreme danger, not only to<br />

"others," but also to the sugar Inter-<br />

ests. This committee nevertheless halls<br />

with delight the Indicated revolution<br />

of Ideas, nnd trusts these may<br />

take definite and practical form. We<br />

submit that no better field of nctlvlty<br />

In this direction presents itself than<br />

In the promotion of tourist travel, as<br />

ttie of nn<br />

of American population.<br />

Your the tone<br />

of the last reply of the Planters' As-<br />

sociation, through its<br />

Neither the<br />

nor<br />

this committee has Intimated that<br />

"there are two distinct camps"<br />

the Planting' and the<br />

both totally dlsregardtul of the Inter-<br />

ests of the other." as stated the<br />

letter of the Planters' Association. Nor<br />

this committee see that present-<br />

ing some pertinent arguments, that It<br />

has "wandered from the original prop-<br />

osition."<br />

NECESSARY.<br />

On the contrary, this has<br />

presented the necessity as as the<br />

desirability of of all In-<br />

terests, not only to counteract the<br />

damage that has already been done,<br />

but also for Improvement<br />

preven-<br />

tion In the future of such a<br />

preponderance cheap labor as<br />

against the legitimate white citizen,<br />

and we should regret exceedingly, If In<br />

somewhat presenting<br />

plea, we should have been misunder-<br />

stood, or have justly caused the Irri-<br />

tation that Is apparent In the reply<br />

of the Planters' Association,<br />

If on the other hand this discussion<br />

may In any way tend to bring about<br />

a better mutual understanding, and<br />

promote the of concerted joint<br />

consideration of all measures that<br />

vitally affect the welfare of the whole<br />

community, as this question of<br />

future population unequlvocably does,<br />

then a great advance will have been<br />

made.<br />

In It Is that the<br />

question of reduced steamer<br />

rates, as a means of inducing tourist<br />

travel, a vital one, that should re-<br />

ceive the continued efforts of every<br />

member of this association.<br />

Your committee, therefore, submits<br />

the above your further considera-<br />

tion.<br />

We finally that the asso-<br />

ciation also debate, the advisability ot<br />

endeavoring to secure a subsidy from<br />

the legislature, and on what lines this<br />

.should be based.<br />

If a reduced rate were made by the<br />

that did no( concern your Interests.<br />

Let us reason together: This, com-<br />

mittee believes In common with many<br />

ether representatives of the Mercan-<br />

tile community, that future conditions<br />

confront us which unless remedied, will<br />

seriously Jeopardize our agricultural<br />

Interests as well as tlipse of a mer-<br />

cantile character.<br />

The questions at Issue are those<br />

that will determine alone the profit or<br />

otherwise of a certain steamship com-<br />

pany, or a temporary advantage of<br />

thertnerchants of this Territory, or the<br />

question of higher or lower passenger<br />

rates.<br />

It Is, however, a pertinent question<br />

as to Who Shall DODUllUC control fair nnd hnnlnciifitlka nrr,r,nolHr,<br />

argument sought to be this, that there may be Insurmountable im<br />

of the Anglo-Saxo- n elements will<br />

be necessary to counteract the Insinu<br />

ating, If of the on your suppprt and<br />

est that none can afford to Ignore 'or<br />

underestimate, and it is respectfully<br />

suggested that the gi eater the Invest-<br />

ment, the greater the need mutual<br />

protection.<br />

It Is psrhaps not generally under-<br />

stood, that notwithstanding exclusion<br />

laws, every child born nn American<br />

soil, has the privilege of citizenship.<br />

Having this fact In view, the follow-<br />

ing statistics will be of Interest.<br />

There were about native born<br />

Asiatics In the Territory as shown<br />

the census of 1900, which means that<br />

about 6000 of these will have a voice<br />

In our elections within a few years.<br />

Of a total of 19,299 pupils In the<br />

schools, there are now 4570 Orientals<br />

or 24 per cent of the whole.<br />

In 1900 there were 1352 Japanese<br />

children In the schools.<br />

In 1902 there were 1993 Japanese<br />

children In the Bchools,<br />

In 1904 there were 2920 Japanese<br />

In 1904 there were 1650 Chinese<br />

children In the schools.<br />

1900 there were 1250 Caucasian<br />

children In the schools,<br />

In 1902 there were 13S9 Caucasian<br />

children in the schools.<br />

In 1904 there were 1403 Caucasian<br />

children in the Bchools,<br />

During this period of four years the<br />

Japanese Increase was 116 per-- cent.<br />

During this period of four years the<br />

Chinese Increase was 28 per cent.<br />

During the same period the Portu-<br />

guese ohlldren Increased 14 per cent.<br />

During the flame period ,the Increase<br />

of American, British and German chil-<br />

dren In the schools was 12 per cent.<br />

These Orientals will be entitled to<br />

vote In Territorial elections on attain-<br />

ing their maturity a few years hence,<br />

and with such nn electorate there will<br />

be necessary a great deal of argument<br />

to Induce especial consideration the<br />

benefit of American citizens, whether<br />

planter, merchant, professional or me<br />

chanic.<br />

They enjoy every privilege now of an<br />

American citizen, except the voting<br />

power. 99 per cent of them were Im-<br />

ported ostensibly for plantation la-<br />

borers but It Is evident that no effec-<br />

tive measures have been considered<br />

for the protection of Interests other<br />

than sugar Interests.<br />

It is submitted that the time I3<br />

far distant when this condition ot<br />

population will be recognized as a<br />

menace to every Interest In the Terri-<br />

tory, and an effectual bar to our ef-<br />

forts for further recognition. In Con-<br />

gress. It Is submitted that it Is time<br />

for the sugar interests to take an<br />

earnest and active part In the consid-<br />

eration of measures jointly with the<br />

rest of the community, to counteract<br />

nnd Improve these conditions.<br />

The only available suggestion that<br />

can be offered now, Is to put forth<br />

every effort to encourage nnd promote<br />

immigration of a class people whose<br />

Influence and numbers will reduce the<br />

disproportion of population as It now<br />

exists.<br />

departure of our Portuguese popula- -<br />

result.<br />

should be made to prevent this by of.<br />

ferlng them employment even at a<br />

higher rate of wages. These people<br />

were brought here at an enormous ex<br />

pense to the taxpayers, and a strong<br />

effort should be made to keep them<br />

I here.<br />

We nsk you to recognize that these<br />

matters are presented, and your con-<br />

sideration urged, from a sense or<br />

necessity only, and In consequence ot<br />

the dangerous conditions existing. It<br />

is fully understood by this committee<br />

that the planting Interests have also<br />

grave problems before them for solu-<br />

tion, but It Is also felt that some of<br />

these problems are questions of com-<br />

munity Interest, In which the general<br />

public have a right to be consulted<br />

and protected, In view of which P. is<br />

here suggested, that a more liberal<br />

recognition of community Interests as<br />

a whole be Inaugurated by the plant<br />

ers, and a mutual understanding be,<br />

had, whereby, all such Interests will be .<br />

equitably considered as the only pre<br />

ventative of serious<br />

Association, then, Is the introduction<br />

by any means, of a compensating bal-<br />

ance of population, whereby these con-<br />

ditions may be as far as possible al-<br />

The financial condition of any of outr<br />

Messrs. Rothwell, Lutted, Gonsalves,<br />

Soper, Hocking and Smith, Com-<br />

mittee of Merchants' Association,<br />

of Honolulu.<br />

Gentlemen: The annual meeting or<br />

this association and other pressing-matter- s<br />

has rendered it impossible to<br />

make earlier acknowledgement of your<br />

communication of November 2nd,<br />

reply Is now made.<br />

Very careful consideration has been,<br />

given to your letter, In which It 'ap-<br />

pears that you have wandered some-<br />

what from the original proposition,,<br />

which was that the Hawaiian Sugar-Planter-<br />

Association should guaran-<br />

tee 2000 tons freight for each trip of<br />

a special steamer to be run in the in-<br />

terests of tourist traffic between Sam<br />

Francisco and Honolulu.<br />

The Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Asso-<br />

ciation desire to make it clear to<br />

Association that, while It<br />

Is quite In sympathy with any project,<br />

for introduction of tourists, It Is en-<br />

tirely out of Its power to guarantee-freigh- t<br />

to any vessel whatever, as it<br />

is not a trading organization and!<br />

neither Imports nor exports any mer-<br />

chandise whatever. If the Merchants''<br />

Association desires support for a spe-<br />

cial steamer, It should ask It from<br />

of Commerce and from the-rank- s<br />

of Its own members, where<br />

are to be found.<br />

The Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Asso-<br />

ciation does not "assert that It Is a.<br />

matter of Indifference whether or no<br />

a proper ratio of white population<br />

here," and it does not take-th- e<br />

position that "such population is-n-<br />

requisite or necessary for<br />

of good order anC govern-<br />

ment," but It cannot see how any ef-<br />

fort apart from that It has already-made-<br />

,<br />

can materially niter existing-condition- s<br />

or cause any large Influx<br />

of white settlers.<br />

It Is the policy of this association<br />

all positions of skilled labor on-th-<br />

plantations filled, so far ns possi-<br />

ble, by United States citizens or thosa-ellglbl- e<br />

for United States citizenship.<br />

medal for gallant conduct at the battle<br />

of Santiago. Under the naval regulations,<br />

If he goes to prison he Is<br />

disrated and dishonorably discharged<br />

and the fact that he holds a medal<br />

from Congress would not help him In<br />

the least.<br />

On the other hand, If he Is fined, he<br />

will go back Into the navy at his old<br />

rank. The matter lies with the trial<br />

Judge entirely, but it is said that It<br />

the man should be only fined, Lieutenant<br />

KoonU, who came from Washington<br />

to testify In his behalf, will<br />

take him back there and lay the whqle<br />

case before the Secretary of the Navy<br />

for Investigation.<br />

"The matter of the sentence of Geneau<br />

rests entirely with the trial<br />

Judge," said Attorney General Andrews<br />

yesterday. "I do not think he<br />

should be released upon the mere payment<br />

of a fine but the matter Is not<br />

up to me."<br />

JACK'S SALARY<br />

the past few days. Others have bought<br />

at the higher prices and are now on<br />

the anxious seat, for In some stocks<br />

there Is a standstill.'<br />

A broker stated that he had to watch<br />

the market every minute as the quotations<br />

oscillated frequently. He went<br />

to- - lunch yesterday nnd on his return<br />

a customer asked if he had a certain<br />

stock for sale. He had, nnd quoted<br />

the last quotations on It, made thrco<br />

quarters of an hour previous. That<br />

wns the only figure he then had at<br />

his command. The man did not seem<br />

satisfied and said he would look<br />

around a bit nnd return later to dicker<br />

It he didn't find something better in<br />

the meantime. Tho customer left. The<br />

broker on Inquiry found that stock had<br />

gone up two points during lunchtlmc.<br />

He had offered It unwittingly to tho<br />

customer two points below tho ruling<br />

quotation. Had It not been for the<br />

amateurism of tho prospective speculator<br />

the broker would have been "done<br />

up" on the deal.<br />

TNEJRBOR<br />

(From "Wednesday's Advertiser.)<br />

The Jones murder case continues to<br />

draff its weary length along In Judge<br />

Robinson's court, with as little apparent<br />

prospect of getting a Jury to<br />

try It now .as w hen it was first called<br />

3ast week. And yet there Is some progress<br />

being made In It. The defense<br />

lias used eight of Its peremptory challenges<br />

and the prosecution four. As the<br />

Territory hns but two left and the<br />

defense four the.e must come a time<br />

"when these will all be gone and the<br />

Ijox will fill of Its own accord If there<br />

aire enough eligible men left by that<br />

time to sit on the Jury.<br />

The proceedings, yesterday of<br />

the usual character, the attorneys<br />

.sparring for preliminary advantage In<br />

.setting Jurymen, but there was nothing<br />

enlivening about It all until Juror<br />

Holt got Into the box. It develop--e- d<br />

thit he had an opinion, which he<br />

told Deputy Attorney General Peters,<br />

would Inlluence his verdict and his<br />

consideration of the evidence, and that<br />

testimony would have to be submitted<br />

to him to Induce him to change that<br />

opinion. He was challenged for cause,<br />

whereupon Attorney Robertson for the<br />

defence took him In hand and endeavored<br />

to convince him that his<br />

opinion was merely an Impression, not<br />

stronger than the presumption of Innocence<br />

which goes to the defendant<br />

under the law.<br />

Holt was not so sure about thnt,<br />

particularly when Peters tried him<br />

wignln In an endeavor to find out what<br />

lie had based hit opinion upon, wnether<br />

It was street talk or the verdict of<br />

the Jury In the trial of Defendant<br />

Par-ment-<br />

Jone3 for the murder of Mrs.<br />

At this point Attorney Robertson<br />

tried to get In and Peters wanted<br />

to know whether he was making<br />

an objection to the line of examination.<br />

Robertson said that he wanted to<br />

know whether the Prosecuting Attorney<br />

held to the chnllenge for cause.<br />

"What Uo you want a ruling upon,<br />

3Ir. Peters?" asked the court.<br />

"I submit that It Is proper to find<br />

out what this Juror's, opinion waq<br />

"based upon," said Peters.<br />

"I am not golne to stop you from<br />

.going Into that," said the court. And<br />

Sir. Robertson butted In with some advice<br />

to the Deputy Attorney General.<br />

"Now," said Peters to him, "are you<br />

objecting or merely making a remark?"<br />

"I am making a remark," retorted<br />

Robertson.<br />

"Then," replied Peters, "we will not<br />

pay any attention to you," and he<br />

turned once more to Holt.<br />

"Thanks," replied Robertson.<br />

Holt failed to get on the Jury, and<br />

there were eleven men In<br />

--when<br />

the box<br />

the court adjourned until today.<br />

Nobody on either side will even make<br />

a guess at the date when the taking<br />

of the testimony will commence.<br />

COURT NOTES.<br />

Manuel Souza, charged with selling<br />

.liquor Illicitly, was acquitted by a Jury<br />

in Judge De Bolt's court yesterday<br />

morning.<br />

Somebody has been stealing evidence<br />

that was wanted In the District Court,<br />

the evidence In this Instance consisting<br />

of about $26 In inoney and some<br />

liquor to be used in a case of Illicit<br />

selling. It seems that the exhibits of<br />

this character nre kept In a cabinet<br />

1n the Hall of Justice, and when the<br />

man who has charge of them went<br />

to vthe cabinet yesterday morning, he<br />

found the liquor and the money gone.<br />

Some dynamite, also an exhibit In a<br />

criminal case, was not touched.<br />

Decree of foreclosure of mortgage<br />

was granted by Judge De Bolt yesterday,<br />

In the case of Cecil Brown<br />

against R. "W. Aylett, Thomas Granatin,<br />

Knnuuela Grandall, his wife. Allen<br />

& Robinson, James L. Holt, and<br />

George L. Desha, trustee. The mortgage<br />

was for $6000 on land at Kallu.<br />

In the United States District Court<br />

jyesterday, Judge Dole dismissed the<br />

petition of his creditors to,, have I.<br />

Xevlngston declared an fnvoluntary<br />

' bankrupt.<br />

Judge Dole, District Court Clerk<br />

Mallng, and Chief Offlce Deputy United<br />

States Marshal Winter went to Hilo<br />

on the Klnau yesterday to open the<br />

term of the District Court there. They<br />

may nrrest a man between them, to<br />

"keep their hand In, but If they do not<br />

they will Just open court and close It<br />

again, there being nothing doing on<br />

the big island in the way of Federal<br />

Court business.<br />

NAVY MEN INTERESTED<br />

IN FATE OF GENEAU<br />

The naval officers, and all the sailors<br />

In Honolulu, are very much Interested<br />

In the Sentence that may be passed<br />

upon Geneau, convicted of manslaughter<br />

In the second degree for tne<br />

killing of "Useless" Harris, a negro,<br />

and strongly recommended to the mercy<br />

of the court. The sailors, of course,<br />

want to see their fellow get off with<br />

as light a sentence as possible. The<br />

officers, It Is said, are Interesting them,<br />

selves In every way that they can,<br />

under the law, In getting the man released<br />

on payment of a fine. Under<br />

the. law, it rests with the trial Judge,<br />

De Bolt, to assess the penalty, which<br />

for the crime may carry a term of imprisonment<br />

for anything under five<br />

years, and a fine that may be placed<br />

as low as one hundred dollars. As<br />

Geneau was convicted of a lesser offense<br />

than that for which he was tried,<br />

and as the Jury made a recommendation<br />

to extreme leniency, It Is argued<br />

by the naval-me- GIVES UP<br />

"The lumber contract havlnsr been<br />

awarded nhd the contractor havlnc<br />

to the Inquiry of the president of<br />

the board In a satisfactory manner, it<br />

would seem that incident is closed."<br />

Thus President Plnkham referred, in<br />

his message to the Board of Health, to<br />

the unpleasantness between himself<br />

and Peter High, who had been awarded<br />

the contract for lumber to be supplied<br />

to the settlement during the current<br />

six months. The correspondence<br />

bttween the president and the contractor<br />

was lately published in the Advertiser.<br />

"The Incident Is closed," and Mr.<br />

High Is left to the peaceful performance<br />

of his contract.<br />

Most of the time of the Board of<br />

Health, at Its meeting yesterday, was<br />

taken up with consideration of the report<br />

of the medical examiners on cases<br />

at the Kallhi receiving station.<br />

NO CHARGE FORTHCOMING.<br />

A charge of violence made by the In<br />

dependent ngatnst Sanitary Inspector<br />

Carroll received attention on the basis<br />

of a written explanation sent to the<br />

president by Mr. Carroll.<br />

No charge had been presented to the<br />

board and on motion Mr. Carroll's letter<br />

was placed on file and the matte-lai- d<br />

President Plnkham reported that the<br />

board's estimates for appropriations<br />

had been forwarded to Governor Carter.<br />

The president submitted forms for<br />

the registration of births to facilitate<br />

compliance with the law oy Japanese.<br />

It appeared that the Japanese hud gen<br />

erally failed to register their births,<br />

but mahy of them now desired to ob<br />

serve the law.<br />

THE FREE DISPENSARY.<br />

Castle & Cooke, Ltd., and Alexander<br />

& Baldwin, Ltd., had been interested<br />

in the free dispensary by the president<br />

to the amount of $20 from each<br />

for the six months ending June 30.<br />

He expected other subscriptions, so reported<br />

that the maintenance of the<br />

free dispensary would be assured until<br />

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25. Delegate Kalanianaole has introduced<br />

a bill in the House fixing Territorial salaries as follows:<br />

Governor $.5000.<br />

Stationery Fund 500.<br />

Secretary . 2000.<br />

Treasurer . 3000.<br />

Chief Justice v 5500.<br />

Associate Justice<br />

5000.<br />

Circuit Judge<br />

3000.<br />

Attorney General . . 4 3000.<br />

Marshal v 3000.<br />

(The Delegate attempts to cut heavily into the salary of Secretary<br />

Atkinson, of whose presence in Washington as a worker for<br />

the Territory he recently complained.)<br />

UNDER NEW SYSTEM<br />

"Any man who can point out in any largo tract of land recently<br />

lensed by the Territory for a term of more than live years any part<br />

that is agricultural in character, can get that land for farming<br />

purposes," said Land Commissioner Pratt yesterday. "Yes; the practice<br />

of putting a clause to that effect in long leases is in a scnseTiow.<br />

That is, wo have been doing it for some, months past. The publication<br />

of the fact altogether is new.<br />

"And if we had had that ,provision in our land leases long ago,<br />

we would have a fine lot of agricultural land available for settlement<br />

in the hands of the Land Office now. There arc many, many<br />

acres now used for pastoral land purposes in large tracts that contain<br />

lands valuable for agricultural purposes. And the cattle are<br />

running over these lands, and we are helpless in the matter until<br />

the present leases expire. That is a condition that will never come<br />

about again in this Territory, be sure of Jhat.<br />

"Under the new system, as fast as the leases for lands now<br />

held as cattle pastures fall in, the lauds will be examined most<br />

thoroughly, and tliere will be no more long leases mado without<br />

the clause that provides that laud found to be agricultural can be<br />

taken backinstantly by the government. That clause will enable<br />

us to keep the public lands well in hand in this office, and if a<br />

rush comes we can settle up all our public lands quickly with an<br />

Agricultural population that will contribute to the wealth of the<br />

Territory by their presence.<br />

"I have heard a great deal of comment concerning the new<br />

rule," went on Mr. Pratt, "and<br />

in<br />

their official capacity, nor any fee,<br />

payment or compensation for any<br />

ofllclal service performed by any<br />

of their deputies, clerks, or employes,<br />

whether performed during or after official<br />

business hours.<br />

"No deputy, clerk or employe of such<br />

officers shall receive or accept any fee,<br />

compensation or payment other than<br />

his salary, as now or hereafter fixed<br />

by law, for any work or service performed<br />

by him of any official nature,<br />

or under color of office, whether performed<br />

Qurlng or after official business<br />

hours. Any person who shall violate<br />

the provisions of this section shall<br />

be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor,<br />

for which the offender shall, on conviction<br />

thereof, be fined not less than<br />

one hundred dollars nor more than<br />

five, hundred dollars. (District magistrates<br />

shall have Jurisdiction In all<br />

cases under this section subject to the<br />

right of appeal.)"<br />

The second annual meeting of the<br />

Dental Society of Hawaii was held<br />

Tuesday evening last.'The following<br />

officers were elected: President, Dr.<br />

A. B. Clark; vice president. Dr. C. B.<br />

High; secretary, Dr. O. E. Wall; treasurer,<br />

Dr. T. E. Clark; director, Dr.<br />

Hutchinson.<br />

-- many people have been in the<br />

office here today to make inquiries concerning it. It seems to have<br />

met with pretty general favor."<br />

As a matter of fact, nothing that has taken place in the Land<br />

Office within the last few months has met with more favorable<br />

comment than the adoption of the new policy by the Commissioner.<br />

The thing was talked of very generally all over town, despite the<br />

doom in sugar stocks which absorbed a large part of public attention;<br />

and wherever there was comment it was favorable upon the<br />

action of the Commissioner. One large land owner said:<br />

"It is the longest step that has been taken since annexation<br />

toward the Americanization of the islands."<br />

Getting Into the Rivers and Harbors<br />

BUI is not getting an appropriation for<br />

Improving the harbor but It Is a much<br />

longer step thnn has ever been taken,<br />

by the Territory In Congress hereto<br />

fore. Yesterday, Governor Carter re<br />

ceived the following cablegram from<br />

Delegate Kuhlo:<br />

"WASHINGTON. D. C. Jan. 24. To.<br />

Governor Carter, Honolulu: Commit<br />

tee will report general harbor bill, carrying<br />

3400,000 for Honolulu; also, survey<br />

for Hllo.<br />

(Signed) "KUHIO."<br />

At once upon tho receipt of this<br />

cablegram, Governor Carter sent tho<br />

following response:<br />

"Dclegnte Kuhlo, Washington: Congratulations;<br />

All Interested should now<br />

JONES JURY redouble efforts toward passage.<br />

(Signed) "CARTER.'<br />

Thus Is the first step won, owing to<br />

the hard and persistent work of those<br />

who hnvo been in Washington to spenk<br />

SIGHT for tho interests of tho Territory. And,<br />

as Governor Carter says, this Is tho<br />

time when all the workers should redouble<br />

the efforts that have so far<br />

One of tho crucial questions put by<br />

the general government for the repay-<br />

the defendant's counsel Is this<br />

ment of 3175,221 for money expended<br />

In sub<br />

stance:<br />

by tho Territory In lighting and<br />

"If, after hearing the evidence, you<br />

guilty?"<br />

There were some protracted contests<br />

In the examinations for cause yesterday.<br />

Thnt of Edwin K. Fernandez oc<br />

cupied the greater portion of tho morn<br />

ing session. Deputy Attorney General<br />

Peters challenged him for cause nt<br />

three, different btages, but the court<br />

finally passed him, and Mr. Peters, In<br />

tho afternoon exercised the Territory's<br />

sixth and last challenge to retire Mr.<br />

Fernandez. It Is odd to noto that another<br />

Fernandez failed to pass later,<br />

for a fixed opinion he held, and that<br />

there are two or three of the name Fernandez<br />

In the special vcnlro return<br />

able this morning.<br />

Two of tho Jurors accepted for cause<br />

by both sides probably made first and<br />

second records for speedy passing,<br />

these being Theo. Bauman and Chas.<br />

Dulsenberg. These men avoided tho<br />

exhaustive psychological ordeal thut<br />

many others underwent. They did this<br />

by answering questions with yes nnd<br />

no for the most part, instead of laying<br />

themselves open to fierce inquisition<br />

by giving their views on fine technical<br />

points. Both therfs gentlemon,<br />

however, had the advantage over most<br />

of the other Jurors In knowing little<br />

about the case, neither of them having<br />

been ,ln Honolulu on tho date of the<br />

tragedy.<br />

ONE DOLLAR FOR GENEAU.<br />

Edward Geneau, convicted on Monday<br />

night of manslaughter In the third<br />

degree, with a strong appeal from the<br />

Jury for clemency, wns sentenced by<br />

Judge De Bolt yesterday morning to<br />

pay a fine of one dollar and costs.<br />

Theio was a demonstration never before<br />

paralleled in a Hawaiian court of<br />

Justice upon the delivery of sentence.<br />

An outburst of applause came from the<br />

spectators which lasted for soma minutes.<br />

M. J. Blssell, ana of the Jurors<br />

who found tho verdict, advanced to the<br />

desk and paid tho fine, which defendant's<br />

counsel capped with a check for<br />

the costs. Amidst these formalities<br />

and Informalities Geneau was surrounded<br />

by blucjacketed comrades of<br />

tho navy, with officers nnd others, who<br />

fairly smothered him with congratula<br />

tions ns they shook hands with him and<br />

led him away In triumph.<br />

Mr. Douthltt opened the proceedings<br />

with an argument for a lenjent sentence<br />

In accord with the request of the<br />

Jury. Geneau's confinement for eight<br />

months awaiting trial was mentioned,-wita<br />

reference to his acute mental<br />

suffering from having been within<br />

hearing of two executions In that period.<br />

Counsel produced a letter from<br />

Wajhlngton stating that sentence to<br />

Imprisonment would result In Geneau's<br />

dishonorable discharge and prevention<br />

of his ever again enlisting In tho navy.<br />

AttorneGenernl Andrews Bald a<br />

man hadrbeen killed, neither In se<br />

nor a fight, but deliberately.<br />

After he had tried to view tho case in<br />

every possible light It still seemed to<br />

him that, If Geneau was dismissed with<br />

a fine, human life would be cheapened<br />

nnd a fearful precedent be established.<br />

With regard to an order from the Navy<br />

Department proper representations he<br />

had no doubt would cause it to be re<br />

voked. It would be a mockery of Justice<br />

if a fine were Imposed which would<br />

for his own state or district thnt<br />

other projects to a sufficient extent<br />

FRIDAY JANUARY 27<br />

THh DAY OF BURNS.<br />

"A fig for those by law protected<br />

"Liberty's a glorious feast."<br />

But that Is only a part of the wide<br />

love of humanity and of liberty that<br />

characterized the writings of dear old<br />

"Bobble" Burns, The poet was not a<br />

lawless man, although his soul revolt-<br />

ed at the forms of law that were made<br />

to fetter the souls of the common peo-<br />

ple that the privileged few might<br />

thrive at the expense of the many.<br />

Burns was a Scotchman and a poet,<br />

the poet of Scotland, but not the poet'<br />

of the Scots alone. He voiced a pro-<br />

test, very early, that has grown with<br />

the growth of civilization. Like many<br />

another to whom God has given the<br />

poet's gift, he held a torch to light the<br />

way along the dark river of humanity<br />

that was to come after him.<br />

That he felt, and felt deeply the<br />

reverence that must be In the soul of<br />

the true poet Is shown In his response<br />

to tho cotter's summons to worship;<br />

"An atheist's laugh's a poor exchange<br />

"For deity offended."<br />

Robert Burns wns born on the 25th<br />

of January, 1759, In a cottage about<br />

two miles from Ayr, the eldest son of<br />

a small farmer, William Burness, of<br />

.Kincardineshire Btock, who v worked<br />

hard, was a man of Integrity, wished<br />

to bring up his children In the fear of<br />

God, but had to fight all his days<br />

against n strong tide of adversity.<br />

Snvs Carlyle. the best biographer of<br />

Burns: "The poet wns fortunate In his<br />

father a man of thoughtful, Intense<br />

character, as tho best of our peasants<br />

are, valuing knowledge, possessing<br />

some, nnd open-mind- for more. Had<br />

he been ever so little richer, the whole<br />

might have Issued otherwise. But<br />

poverty sunk the whole family even<br />

below the reach of our cheap schools,<br />

and Burns remained a hard-work-<br />

plough boy."<br />

Although poverty may have been<br />

needed to ripen his genius. It ruined<br />

his health and led him to give way to<br />

temptations which largely wrecked his<br />

life. And yet, out of that wreck has<br />

come the voice that will live as long<br />

as the world holds Its way through<br />

apace the voice that Is the voice ffr<br />

an times and an men.<br />

Burns had written his first verses ot<br />

note when he went to Irvine In 1781 to<br />

lenrn his trade as a flax dresser. It<br />

was an unlucky affair. During a New<br />

"Year carousal, the shop took fire and<br />

Burns, to use his own words, "wns<br />

left, like a true poet, without a slx- -<br />

pence." From that time forward with<br />

varying fortune, ho followed the light<br />

thnt was In him, until tho current of<br />

his life was finally turned by the suc-<br />

cess of his first volume, which was<br />

published at Kilmarnock In June, 17SC.<br />

Ills literary triumph wns Instantane-<br />

ous, taking tho country by storm, nnd<br />

he wns nt once given place nmong the<br />

literati of Edinburgh. He died on the<br />

25th of July, 1730.<br />

SELF SUPPORTING HOMES.<br />

The interest that responsible young<br />

married men nre taking In the Palolo<br />

valley villa site proposition will tend,<br />

we hope, to Induce the government to<br />

open other tracts near the city on ensy<br />

terms. It Is certain that the Palolo<br />

public acreage, if given a fair valaa-- 1<br />

tlon, wlllbe rapidly absorbed by a<br />

jjood class of settlers. Nothing Is<br />

easier, near this city, than to make n<br />

home pay the owner a line cash rental i<br />

and leave him something besides for<br />

Improvements, to say nothing of tho<br />

reduction of his household expenses. I<br />

jjoniue grasses grow so wen up '<br />

vnllpva that they reduce tho cost of<br />

keeping a cow to nbout $3 a month;<br />

and as milk sells at from 10 cents to<br />

12 cents a quart and as a fair cow<br />

should average ten quarts a day. It Is<br />

easy to see where the pioflt comes In.<br />

Chickens, since the Advertiser's sore-<br />

head cure made good are worth while<br />

MEDIAEVAL RUSSIA.<br />

One of the manifold curses nf Rus-B- la<br />

Is Its ducal nrlntocracy; another Is<br />

Its priesthood. Combined they stand<br />

In the<br />

progress and they<br />

steal from every coffei, corrupting the<br />

public service, Impoverishing the mid-<br />

dle and oppressing and plun-<br />

dering the poor. The Emperor himself<br />

Is not so bad a man. He has dreams<br />

and visions of doing good and It was<br />

he Who tried to organize peace at The<br />

Hngucl Yet, while almost undis-<br />

puted .mastery the common people,<br />

he but a slave In the hands the<br />

Grand Dukes and of reactionaries like<br />

Pobedonetzeff, the Procurator of the<br />

Holy Synod. They govern; the czar<br />

and the Czar knows If he<br />

does not reign to his masterful<br />

councillors some way will be found to<br />

rid the world him and put a puling<br />

Infant on the throne.<br />

The situation, as It Btands shows how<br />

far Russia has lagged In the path of<br />

civilization. The basic facts about<br />

her present history ore those or<br />

mediaeval Europe. When one hears<br />

a State where the aristocracy lives by<br />

plunder, supported by a rich and nrrd-ga- nt<br />

church prospering through the<br />

superstitions It spreads among the<br />

masses nnd keeping those masses lgno-ra-<br />

the world about them so that<br />

no ferment of Intellectual forces, no ex.<br />

amples of victorious free peoples may<br />

disturb the vested tenure of the rulers<br />

when one hears of these things we<br />

say, the mind turns back to the<br />

Europe of the Middle Ages. The story<br />

of Russia cannot be associated with<br />

the Europe of the present day. It Is<br />

tho fifteenth and not the twenti-<br />

eth century. It belongs to the time of<br />

Louis XI, not of Victoria and Edward,<br />

Loubet and Roosevelt, of Wllhel- -<br />

jm christian and Oscar.<br />

But the people Russia, hindered<br />

In development though they havo been,<br />

have nearer our day. They are<br />

rcloBo to the time Robespierre and<br />

Marat, the guillotine nnd the grcnt<br />

assize In which tho causes of man<br />

hood are tried as by fire. It Is a<br />

bloody period but It Is close to the<br />

beginning of a nobler century; but ns<br />

the 'Innl results of the French- -<br />

Revolu-<br />

tion have been described ns "nn<br />

nnd wholly perfect blessing,"<br />

so, perhnps, will be the Issue of the<br />

fated period upon which Russia seema<br />

about to enter.<br />

But whnt a contrast It nil Is to the<br />

progre's nnd mnnhood of the "heathen<br />

empire" against whose victorious<br />

legions the eager priesthood of the<br />

Slav Is appealing to the deaf ears<br />

nn Incensed and outraged God. There<br />

stands Russln, savage, uncouth and<br />

predatory, profeslng to worship the<br />

crois, and there stnnds Japan, In the<br />

light of the new century nnd In the<br />

clasp of that century's Ideals, the ex-<br />

emplar of justice nnd humanity nnd<br />

ENTERTAINING STRANGERS.<br />

A Montana man who Is a visitor here<br />

complains that the people go to bed<br />

early, leaving strangers to shift for<br />

themselves. The explanation will bo<br />

now to old residents, but the deserted<br />

look of the streets nfter 7 p. m. ex<br />

cuses the theory which the gentleman<br />

from Montana hns formed about the<br />

simplicity of our nocturnal life.<br />

The truth about It Is thnt Honolulu<br />

people are so accustomed to amuse and<br />

entertain each other evenings that<br />

they think they have time nnd feel<br />

no special incentive to get up public<br />

functions. They do not patronize the<br />

very great singers come<br />

admiration felt for him by foreign am- -<br />

of men who are not easily deceived.<br />

Generally speaking, history has meas-<br />

But this Kaiser, whom men see loom--<br />

The new Canadian company has se-<br />

Sleep Over Court's<br />

Instructions.<br />

It was necessary only to draw three<br />

somes yesterday for the completion of<br />

a Jury to try .Edward Mitchell Jones<br />

for the murder of Linda K. Jones, his<br />

divorced wife, on August 23, 1903.<br />

Fred. Turrlll was the subject of the<br />

eleventh peremptory challenge by the<br />

defense, and when his place had been<br />

filled Mr. Robertson, after consultation<br />

with Mr. Dunne, announced that the<br />

jury was satisfactory to the defense.<br />

These are the twelve men, namely:<br />

E. T. Drcler, T. P. O'Brien, Job Bat-chelo- r,<br />

Win. E. Tirrell, W. J. England,<br />

A. J. Talt, Chas. A. Simpson, Louis R.<br />

Medelros, Theo. Bauman, W. D.<br />

Antone Fernandez and Peter<br />

O. O'Sulllvan.<br />

The actual trial will begin at 10<br />

o'clock this morning. It was 11:45 a.<br />

m. yesterday when the Jury was<br />

sworn. Deputy Attorney General<br />

Peters wanted a recess ample enough<br />

to enable him to get together the wit-<br />

nesses for the prosecution, and differ-<br />

ent jurors asked leave to visit their<br />

places of business and their homes.<br />

Judge Robinson ordered recess until 3<br />

P. m.<br />

Jurors were surprised to learn that<br />

neither shop nor home could be visit-<br />

ed Individually, But that the entire<br />

Jury must go to each place visited and<br />

Its members keep in sight of each oth-<br />

er. The first who asked the privilege,<br />

Mr. England, said he would withdraw<br />

the request rather than arrange his<br />

business affairs with the crowa<br />

around him. Judge Robinson reassur-<br />

ed hip by saying the restriction would<br />

be enforced reasonably, the main re-<br />

quirement being that the jurors should<br />

not scatter or mingle with other peo-<br />

ple.<br />

Mr. Tirrell was Informed that he<br />

might send a note to his family, but<br />

no Juror could receive any communica-<br />

tion until it had been scrutinized by<br />

the court.<br />

At 3 o'clock the Jurors had not com-<br />

pleted their round of visitations and<br />

the trial was continued until 10 o'clock<br />

this morning.<br />

All local newspapers, before they are<br />

given to the Jurors, at their hotel or<br />

elsewhere, must haVe everything In<br />

the way of reports of the trial and<br />

references thereto excised by the<br />

bailiff.<br />

Liquor spirits, wine or beer as de-sli-<br />

may be furnished In moderate<br />

allowance, at the "discretion of the<br />

bailiff, to Jurors at their temporary<br />

lodging place and at their meals. It<br />

Is understood that no liquor In' quanti-<br />

ty for social drinking will bo permitted<br />

In the Jury's hotel apartments, the<br />

privilege being limited to the serving<br />

of an nppetlzer before meals, or the<br />

usual table beverage at mealtimes, to<br />

those accustomed to such indulgence.<br />

Mr, Peters brought up the drink<br />

question, while the Jurors were outside<br />

of the courtroom, Just before adjourn-<br />

ment for the day, and It was quietly<br />

discussed between court and counsel<br />

with the conclusion above reported.<br />

The1 matter of newspaper censorship<br />

was introduced by Mr. Peters In the<br />

presence of the jury at Its empanel-<br />

ing, i<br />

Bailiff Clem. K. Qulnn has an one-<br />

rous Oual responsibility thrust upon<br />

him In guarding the Jurors from an<br />

excess of cither Intelligence or stimu-<br />

lation.<br />

DYNAMITE CASE CLOSING.<br />

At 9 o'clock this morning the jury<br />

A motion for discharge made by Mr.<br />

Mngoon, whfen the prosecution had<br />

rested, was after argument denied.<br />

"FIGHTING PAST FORECLOSURE.<br />

James Brown has made answer to<br />

the petition of J. M. Dowsett, trustee,<br />

for a writ of assistance to place him<br />

1 1 possession of certain Young- - street<br />

premises. Charles Crelghton Is re-<br />

spondent's attorney. The respondent<br />

believes on lnfoimatton that there was<br />

a suit entitled J. M. Dowsett, trustee,<br />

vs. Grace A. Brown, but has no per-son- al<br />

knowledge of the fact. lie says<br />

the same thing relative to the appoint-<br />

ment of P. D. Kellett Jr. as commis-<br />

sioner and his sale as puch of the<br />

property to Henry Holmes for $2500,<br />

with dellveiy cf deed, etc., therefore<br />

denies these matters.<br />

The respondent denies that the peti-<br />

tioner had produced or shown to him<br />

the alleged deed, but alleges that on<br />

July 8, 1904, James . Morgan came<br />

to the premises In question, the resi-<br />

dence of respondent, stated that he<br />

Was acting under power of attorney<br />

fiom Dowsett whom, he Informed re-<br />

spondent, was the owner of the prem-<br />

ises and on behalf of Dowsett de-<br />

manded possession thereof. The re-<br />

spondent admits that he refused and<br />

still refuses to surrender such posses-<br />

sion.<br />

Morgan at that time, Brown alleges,<br />

read a portion of a paper to him pur-<br />

porting to be some order of confirma-<br />

tion of an alleged sale to Dowsett, but<br />

'he respondent has no recollection of<br />

the contents of the paper, and he A-<br />

lleges that Dowsett has not at any time<br />

produced, shown to or served upon<br />

him the alleged decree, writ or order,<br />

notice of sale or deed.<br />

Finally, before his prayer to be dis-<br />

missed with costs. Brown says that,<br />

although as alleged In the petition he<br />

was "a party to and Joining" In the<br />

mortgage said to have been foreclosed,<br />

he was not made a party to the suit<br />

or cited to appear therein, nor did he<br />

receive notification of the Institution<br />

of the suit, nor did he appear In an<br />

manner therein.<br />

This suit Is peculiar In Us title. The<br />

"writ of assistance" Is an old equita-<br />

ble remedy, but In this Instance Is<br />

used In Hawaii probably for the first<br />

time.<br />

attorneys, Kinney, McClanahan &<br />

Cooper and II. G. Mlddledltch, answers<br />

the complaint of W. G. Irwin for re-<br />

that he has unjustly, or contrary to<br />

law or the rights of the plaintiff,<br />

taken Into his possession or connected<br />

Into his own use the property de-<br />

scribed In the complaint, though ad-<br />

mitting that he did take the property<br />

Into his possession, and he denies that<br />

the value of the property Is only $600<br />

not the owner of the property, but<br />

that It was lawfully levied upon under<br />

four executions Issued from the Ho-<br />

nolulu District Court against James<br />

Carty, the true owner of the properly.<br />

Since the Institution of the present ac-<br />

tion, the High Sheriff says, the plain-<br />

lawfully, and contrary to law and the<br />

rights of the defendant. In possession<br />

THE LAST OF<br />

THE SEVASTOPOL<br />

A Sasebo despatch furnishes the fol-<br />

lowing account by Commander Suzuki,<br />

commander of a destroyer flotilla, who<br />

witnessed the last of the Sevastopol:<br />

On the 2nd at 9 a. in. the commander<br />

was looking from the sea six miles off<br />

Clvengteuslian, when he saw the Sevas-<br />

topol being towed by two steamers for<br />

about one mile and a half, the vessel<br />

being brought to at the southern foot<br />

of Chentcushan. The commander, be-I- n<br />

then ignorant of the fact that the<br />

garrison had proposed capitulation,<br />

carefully watched the movements of<br />

the Itusslan battleship. -- The ship ed<br />

a heavy listing until her<br />

deck was almost In a vertical position,<br />

when slip was buddenly engulfed by the<br />

water. A huge column of water rose<br />

at the moment of the sinking, but no<br />

sound of explosion wns heard and no<br />

smoke observed. It was then believed<br />

that the sinking had been effected by<br />

taking out the keelson, and not by<br />

blqwlng up the ship. The sea where<br />

the battleship settled down Is about<br />

twenty fathoms deep. The sinking of<br />

the Otvnzny and a three-maste- d steam-<br />

er took place before that of the Sevas-<br />

topol, and their destruction was effect-<br />

ed by explosives, the blowing up being<br />

accompanied by a thunderous sound.<br />

A meeting of the Kalmukl and Fa-lo- lo<br />

Improvement Club will be held at<br />

the Roof Garden, Kalmukfl, at 7:30 this<br />

evening, to consider a scheme of tree<br />

planting and for general business.<br />

BIG ISLAND FIREB0G<br />

CONVICTED ON TRIAL<br />

(Continued from Pace 1.)<br />

lows : On the night of the 14th of August, the trash house at Naa-leh- u,<br />

valued at about $5000, was discovered to be on fire. It burned<br />

fiercely, and only good luck saved the, mill, the plantation storc<br />

and the manager's house, together with the laborers' quarters from<br />

destruction, there Dcing no wind at the time of the fire and a rain<br />

having fallen shortly before. Even as it was, the fire was only got<br />

under contro'l by the hardest kind of hard work, all the men on the<br />

plantation turning out to, fight the flanks.<br />

There was small question that it was a case of incendiarism,<br />

and Kaina Anton, who had been hanging about the place and had<br />

been ordered off, was suspected, "he having made threats that he<br />

would get even with the manager. The man was arrested, and was<br />

held to answer by the district magistrate, and was then taken to<br />

Honolulu. At this point Chester Doyle took hold of the case, and<br />

it was owing to his work that the conviction was secured today.<br />

While Anton was in jail in Honolulu, a stool pigeon was put in the<br />

cell with whom he soon became chummy, and to whom he finally<br />

confessed that one Pckc Bob had seen him apply the torch to the<br />

trash house.<br />

Bob was gathered in at once, and, turned state's evidence almost<br />

as soon as he had been captured. This was the strongest evidence<br />

against Anton, but ,it was supported by a chain of circumstances<br />

and corroborative testimony so well fitted together that the con-<br />

clusion was irresistible.<br />

As has been said, this is the first conviction for arson in the Ter-<br />

ritory since 1893, when some Japs set, in;,. to Lahaina plantation<br />

and were convicted, also through the 'detective work of Doyle, get-<br />

ting twenty years each for their crime."' '<br />

"That is pretty good work," said Attorney General Andrews<br />

last night, When told of the convictioii of Anton. "Doyle has cer-<br />

tainly managed the case with great cleverness."<br />

CONSENSUS OF OPINION<br />

ABOUT SMALL FARMING<br />

FRIDAY,<br />

HAWAII AN GAZETTE, JANUARY 37, 1905.<br />

-SE- MI-WEEKLY,<br />

With all respect to the ehivalrcsquc championship of the causo<br />

of small farmer by Mr. Jared Smith as well as to his civic courage<br />

in expressing publicly his ideas, I beg to disagree with him in regard<br />

to the advantages of small holdings in agriculture.<br />

The idea of this advnntage has priginated from the example<br />

of France becoming prosperous after the supposed panellation of<br />

large estates among peasants in the great revolution of 1793. But<br />

The following is n letter from<br />

Dole to the Farmer's<br />

Institute :<br />

Executive Chnmber, Territory of Hawaii,<br />

N<br />

Honolulu, Jan. 24, 1902.<br />

fl'o the Farmers' Institute<br />

Gentlemen: It is with great pleasure that I have learned of<br />

your intention to organize a Farmers' Institute upon a permanent<br />

basis. It is an enterprise which, if persevcringly conducted, can-r- ot<br />

fail to be of great benefit to the farming interests of the Territory<br />

in distinction from sugar-plantin- g .recent inquiries into this subject prove that the very fact of par- -<br />

ccllation as well as their their own against the natural concentration<br />

of real estate is, to say the least, verj' doubtful. The concentration<br />

is going merrily on in France as well as in tho rest of<br />

the world, including the United States. In this latter country look<br />

at such instances as that of the one firm of Miller & Lux owning<br />

14,530,000 acres of land in one block in California, Arizona and<br />

New Mexico adjoining. It is more than the territory of Greece<br />

interests. Your success will<br />

doubtless stimulate the formation of similar associations in other<br />

parts of the islands.<br />

I notice in the newspapers some doubt, expressed as to the<br />

practicability of profitable farming in the Territory. I have no<br />

doubt on the subject; and it is by such organizations as farmers'<br />

institutes, intelligently and enthusiastically carried on, that the success<br />

of diversified agriculture will be most effectively promoted.<br />

I recognize the probability that general farming here must<br />

develop slowly. Individuals here and there will succeed because<br />

of intelligent and skillful cultivation of the soil nnd a careful<br />

study of the markets. Farmers' institutes will promote such cultivation<br />

and such study of the markets amongst the whole farming<br />

lratcrnity.<br />

I need hardly remind yon of the extent to which our political<br />

future depends upon the growth of a farming class in these islands,<br />

living on and making their living from their farms. If we faii<br />

in this, and the agricultural work in the Territory shall bo confined<br />

to largo estates cultivated by a floating element of cheap<br />

laborers having no interest in the soil, the prospect of building up<br />

a citizen population of a conservative and intelligent character will<br />

be poor indeed.<br />

I wish to call your attention to the intention of the Government<br />

to hold an exhibition of agricultural, horticultural and floral<br />

products in the month of July of this year, and to invite your<br />

members to compete in such exhibition.<br />

I wish your enterprise all success.<br />

Very sincerely,<br />

Governor of Hawaii.<br />

SMALL FARMERS' PROSPECTS.<br />

Wa-liiaw- B. 0. Clark said in an address to a,<br />

the Farmers' Institute,<br />

April 12, 1902:<br />

Pineapples seem to bo one of the crops especially suited to<br />

our local conditions, having no destructive insect pest, imported or<br />

rative, to prey upon it; thriving through drouth, producing even<br />

better 'quality of fruit than during wet season's; easy of propagation<br />

and cultivation and responsive to good culture, which, with a<br />

certain amount of fascination that attends the production of all<br />

tropical fruits, place it well up among the popular fruits destined<br />

to figure in the horticultural history of Hawaii in the near future.<br />

The growing demand for the fruit on the mainland and for<br />

ships' supplies both in the fresh and canned state, leads mo to con-cid- er<br />

it a safe and profitable crop as well as being otherwise suited<br />

to the conditions of the small farmers of the islands. "With the<br />

advent of canneries here, this one industry can be made a source<br />

cf revenue, through the employment given in growing and packing<br />

the fruit, sufficient to assure the future prosperity of this colony<br />

It is very gratifying to be able to speak hopefully of this int'ustry,<br />

as we hear so much of a pessimistic tone regarding the<br />

possibilities for the small farmer making a living here. It now looks<br />

as if we would soon be able to give ocular demonstration so convincing<br />

that the class of people who always beset new countries,<br />

belittling the opportunities and discouraging home-maker- s, will<br />

have to find a new topic to "harp" on. For even with one anchor<br />

crop (and I believe there arc other industries, including sugar cane,<br />

that will be developed into paying industries suited to the small<br />

farmer), the prospect is good.<br />

If I may be allowed to digress, I wish to state as my candid<br />

belief that in less than five years we shall hear less of the cry<br />

"Small farmers can't grow cane," for they not only can but will,<br />

il given a chance, and will be the salvation of the sugar industry<br />

from the disaster that pessimists arc endeavoring to claim for it.<br />

WHOSE IS THE FUTURE?<br />

Editor Advertiser: The highly interesting and edifying discussion<br />

that is going on on small farming, for which the people<br />

owe The Commercial Advertiser their sincere gratitude, prompts<br />

me to say a few more words in completion of my views on the<br />

subject as already expressed in my published letters.<br />

With all sympathies to small farmer, whether white or Japanese,<br />

and the delight I experience in stretching the imagination<br />

at the touching spectacle of the Hawaiian Islands thickly studded<br />

with flourishing independent homesteads, especially side by side<br />

with large corporation's holdings, I cannot say that such will bo<br />

the future. The last part of it, the sight of a wolf pasturing peacefully<br />

and harmoniously with the lamb on the same common, watering<br />

lrom tlie same brook, requires, indeed, more phantasy than 1 pos<br />

the the in them<br />

that 'What<br />

with<br />

courage, in the nature of Alphonse Daudet's little goat, who kept<br />

himself the whole night, like that goat he will<br />

succumb and be devoured towards<br />

Anyhow is safer not put them into the same enclosure.<br />

Somebody has to sacrificed. Dropping .all sentimentality<br />

r.side, must state that the laws nature in the<br />

interest of progress it is the farmer- - who and has be<br />

If farmers were capable of association cooperation in the<br />

r quired by circumstances, such would not have been the<br />

ease. They could and would more than hold their own in<br />

with large land holdings, corporations and trusts. But such<br />

is not the ease. There is no vocation, whose adepts are more narrow-minde- d,<br />

individualistic, animated with petty and hopeless<br />

conservatism than that of a small farmer. In all countries, where<br />

peasant is endowed with small property, politically and socially he<br />

is the very bulwark corner stone of stagnation, the champion<br />

of every opposition to progress, no matter prosperous like<br />

in Germany or miserable like in Russia and China. He is more<br />

Catholic than the Pope, and more of a proprietor than the English<br />

landlord, although his personal property may bo reduced to shovel,<br />

and his real estate of such dimensions that is hard to turn a<br />

cart on it without trespassing on neighbor's dominions. Remember<br />

j;easants's wars in Germany and La Vendee in France.<br />

Thus from point 01 view of progress and social evolution peas<br />

look the farmers the States, who theoretically are<br />

the balance of the country, look at size and influence<br />

of their, party in comparison with parties representing the<br />

of Look how give in in competition with<br />

farms under the pressure corporations, emigrating<br />

to Canada by 30,000 families a year!<br />

I<br />

However unpopular the corporations and trusts are, the future<br />

belongs to them. They are the. necessary step towards complete<br />

nationalization of land nnd other industrial means of production.<br />

Just at they are on feudal footing, but their independence<br />

is in its zcnith. It becomes clear to every man in the street that<br />

corporations from private more and more become public institutions,<br />

and as such involve public interest; and consequently are<br />

subject to people's control. Between the two great contending<br />

armies, that of labor, representing the man alive, and that of capital,<br />

representing the labor of dead generations, who is coins to arbi<br />

trate if not the state? And in what that arbitration can result.<br />

if not in the amalgamation of both into one immense national con<br />

cern? Every year will bring the corporation more and more under<br />

the control of municipal, State and Federal authorities. President.<br />

Roosevelt's intentions and policy in regard to corporations are perfectly<br />

souitd. All is required acts, not words. Up wants to begin<br />

with dictating the railroads their freight and passenger charges,<br />

aim wim opening 1110 dooks or an corporations to people s eyes.<br />

If he is successful and goes on consistently, tho world may soon wit<br />

ness spectacle: the tail wagging the dog.<br />

But his desire to develop Hawaii on traditional American small<br />

farming lines is hopelessly with that policy. In American<br />

traditions settling the West and of public lands<br />

there have been no railroad corporations, trusts Miller & Luxes;<br />

these are new factors, requiring an essential modification of those<br />

traditions. Tempora mutantur aud nos mutamus in illisl<br />

Such arc tho principal reasons why, being a small farmer myself,<br />

not in favor of small farming, especially on these Islands,<br />

where besides political and economical there are other obstacles to<br />

contend with. I have already stated that do not want spend<br />

energy in defending the doomed and irrevocably lost cause, or attempt<br />

to raise the dead.<br />

AVhilc clearly realizing the reasons on the part of the planters<br />

for introducing 30,000 Chinese, one cannot believe this will ever bo<br />

accomplished. Leaving aside the opposition of labor pn the continent,<br />

how is it possible to reconcile with American spirit and<br />

the idea that certain men under American flag will be<br />

limited to one vocation, one kind of work and punished by exportation<br />

as soon as they dare enter another? Every court will find<br />

such a law or contract unconstitutional. How would Mr. Pinkham<br />

feel if were compelled to stick his hardware business or<br />

machine nnd punished for becoming the president of the<br />

Board of Health? Is a Chinaman not a man, and has he no right<br />

to entertain the same feelings as Mr. Pinkham? Supposing he is<br />

not, ought to be conferred this sacred human right under American<br />

colors anyhow. I sooner would vote for the importation of<br />

10,000 Chinese without this restriction than with it.<br />

What does this little Territory as a place, of settlement and<br />

labor amount to for American people? What with vast demand for<br />

skilled American labor home all over the world a few hundred<br />

mechanics on these Islands signify? "With the expanse of<br />

free lands to be settled after irrigation in the West alone what do<br />

cur few acres here amount to the American farmer? A drop in the<br />

bucket indeed 1 Far more important it is to hold high American<br />

principles than to give employment to a few hundred American<br />

mechanics. Should those mechanics be really necessary for the plantations,<br />

and could not replaced by the Asiatics, they will employed<br />

for proper wages. If not, let Japanese and<br />

do the work.<br />

Mr. W. N. Armstrong's plan of creating on these islands an<br />

American Asiatic outpost is a very attractive one. Judging by what<br />

American education and ideas have already accomplished in Japan<br />

and China, the importance of such an intermediate colony for the<br />

further conquest of Asia to the principles of liberty and progress<br />

cannot be gainsaid. Should this plan be adopted, the sooner wo<br />

grant our Japanese and Chinese residents their citizens' rights, tho<br />

better. Anyhow, as the Commercial Advertiser suggests, let us<br />

plan for the future in order steer by the compass<br />

consistently and without hesitation. That will save so much useless<br />

friction and disappointment.<br />

I cannot say that I am in favor of Chinese. They are too<br />

stubbornly conservative, unable and unwilling to assimilate. Introduced<br />

in numbers will b ea serious check on this country's<br />

further development. Even the second generation, born and educated<br />

here, is a hard nut to crack. To the first Territorial legislature<br />

there was a member of that class, who with all unusual intelligence<br />

and was perfectly hopeless. He repeatedly<br />

persistently asserted from the legislative bench that wo have altogether<br />

too many schools and too much education the detriment<br />

of the country; unblushingly advocated do away with them.<br />

The introduction of a large number of Chinese would turn the<br />

proposed civilizing outpost from American-Asiati- c to Asiatic-America- n.<br />

, iyj$<br />

It is entirely different with the who have given such<br />

brilliant evidence of their capability of progress and adaptation.<br />

would be:<br />

1. The education of plantation employees in the proper methods<br />

of treating Japanese labor, especially the deslstance from the old<br />

2. The establishment of evening schools and lectures for the<br />

evidence, but was permitted to have<br />

no say. The trouble was, perhaps, a<br />

fear that It might say too much. The<br />

case was the trial of Luplnl Gomez,<br />

upon a charge: of using dynamite In<br />

an attempt to blow the house, and<br />

duties<br />

of employers towards laboring men are more complicated than elsewhere.<br />

More than anywhere they have to be studied and carried<br />

out conscientiously and intelligently.<br />

STANDARD TELEPHONE<br />

The Standard Telephone Company Is<br />

again In the field for a franchise to<br />

establish the automatic telephone system<br />

In and about Honolulu. Guy Owens,<br />

who endeavored to obtain a franchise<br />

from the last Legislature, forwarded<br />

a letter to Governor Carter<br />

yesterday In which he stated that the<br />

automatic system was finding favor.<br />

In the leading cities of the United<br />

States. It Is proposed by the Standard<br />

company to have a free underground<br />

conduit for the use f the police<br />

and fire alarm wlros.<br />

Mr. Owens has received a copy of<br />

the telephone directory book of the<br />

automatic system containing a list of<br />

8000 names, with an average of 1800<br />

phones being added each month,<br />

American Sobriety.<br />

LONDON, Jan. 12. Lady Falmouth<br />

has attracted general comment ana<br />

praise by a letter to the press In which<br />

she tells how Bhe was struck during<br />

the recent visit to the United States<br />

by the higher standard of sobriety prevailing<br />

there and the "total absence of<br />

the poor, drink sodden looking beings<br />

too frequently seen In England."<br />

Her ladyship's Investigations led her<br />

to suppose that this higher standard<br />

was at least partly due to the Instruction<br />

In hygiene and temperance In almost<br />

all the elementary schools in<br />

America. She urges that the study of<br />

similar subjects be mode compulsory<br />

in the British educational department.<br />

It Is remembered In this connection<br />

that on July 11 Lord Londonderry<br />

urged the same reform In a petition<br />

signed by over 15,000 medical men.<br />

CONSENSUS OF OPINION.<br />

(Continued from pare 6.)<br />

JARED SMITH'S VIEWS.<br />

Jared G. Smitli said the following in nn address to tho Farmers'<br />

Institute, Washiawn, April 12, 11)02.<br />

There nrc not as many farmers as there should he in Hawaii.<br />

The laud and the water have been to a considerable extent tied<br />

up in lnrge estates or under long periods of lease. This hns been<br />

because of the exigencies of the single great agricultural industry.<br />

But I believe that there is lnnd enough and water enough to support<br />

a large and successful population of farmers, and that the develop-men- t<br />

of such agricultural communities as this one that you are<br />

founding is not of necessity inimical to that other great" industry.<br />

Hawaii would be more proseperous today if there were on every<br />

island a hundred such centers as "Waliiawa.<br />

The prosperity of every country depends on the prosperity<br />

of its laboring class, and the best, most prosperous and most stable<br />

class of laborers arc those who own their own homes. If it is not<br />

possible to develop such a class in connection with tho sugar plantations,<br />

and that is a matter which time alone can demonstrate, every<br />

effort must be put forth to develop other agricultural industries<br />

so that this fair land shall not rise or fall by sugar alone. "Wo of<br />

the experiment station cannot do these things politically, however<br />

much wo may believe in their accomplishment. But we enn do much<br />

to bring about an increase in the number of farmers and farming<br />

communities in Hawaii by helping you who are engaged in farming<br />

to make your business a success. If you are successful other men,<br />

other Americans, will want to come here and found homes. ,<br />

Practically the entire population of Hawaii (150,000 souls), is<br />

supported on less than 250,000 acres of lnnd in actual cultivation.<br />

All of the most fertile lands have bfien appropriated, or arc in use,<br />

:. e., the comparatively level lands bordering the consts. But thero<br />

nrc still comparatively unoccupied, and capable of supporting a<br />

fanning population, fully 1,500,000 acres of arable land, much of it<br />

virgin. The remaining two and more million acres comprise tho moun-tni- n<br />

and lava flows, and may be thrown out of consideration, except<br />

us regards the support of grazing nnimnls upon its scant vegetation.<br />

The uncultivated million and a half acres, is, I firmly believe,<br />

eapnble of supporting nn ndditionnl population of another two hun-<br />

dred thousnnd souls. This may be only the dream of a<br />

carpet-bagge- r,<br />

but I believe that a far greater development, nnd a far greater<br />

and far more reaching prosperity nwaits Hawnii through, the production<br />

of other crops besides sugar. There is plenty of lnnd. There<br />

if. enough water, if it can be properly conserved. Not one per cent,<br />

of the natural rainfall of these islands is utilized for the production<br />

of crops.<br />

As to the desirability of securing nn influx of Americnn farmers,<br />

there cannot be two ways of thinking. It is necessary, if Hawaii<br />

is ever to get out of the habit of standing on one leg, or of looking<br />

at all things through one eye. We do not want to see that one leg<br />

erippled, but we do want to see nil the other members of the civic<br />

body attain the same roundness nnd strength. The present population<br />

is fully occupied with its dominant industry nnd those dependent<br />

upon sugnr.<br />

Our nearest neighbor across the wnter, the grent State of California,<br />

is making a concerted effort to secure immigration. Wherever<br />

one may go on the mainland, inducements nrc held out to new<br />

settlers. Every mnn who goes to a new lnnd to mnke his home thero<br />

adds to thq wealth of that lnnd, not only by the few dollars he may<br />

have in his pockets, but also by the potentinl power of production.<br />

There is room for colonies of Avhite men in every island of this<br />

group, nnd in every district of every island. There is room for moro<br />

farmers in "Wnhiawn, Onhu, Kuln, Kau, Ilnrfiakun, Kona, Waimea,<br />

on Kauai, Molokai and Lanai. Let the people of Hawaii get together<br />

nnd work together to secure immigration.<br />

The extremely crcditnblo showing made at the Agricultural Fair<br />

pf products from all portions of this Territory is proof positive that<br />

the difficulty is not that other things besides sugnr will not grow.<br />

We surely do not say that we do not wnnt to see the development<br />

of other industries, provided there is room for them.<br />

The position of this islnnd group, ns it were, at the crossroads<br />

of the Pncific; the islands lie at the meeting of the ways between<br />

North America and the Orient, between the Isthmus and Australia.<br />

As a result of location, these islnnds ought to be of grent importance<br />

in that not far distant day when the Pacific carries ns great trade<br />

ns the Atlnntic.<br />

FULL INDEXING MADE<br />

MOTHER AND CHILD<br />

Scott's Emulsion is cod<br />

liver oil made almost as<br />

palatable as milk. It is easy<br />

and soothing to the weak<br />

stomach ; it checks the tendencies<br />

of children toward<br />

thinness.<br />

Scott's Emulsion gives<br />

strength to weak mothers because<br />

it creates healthy flesh<br />

and new blood.<br />

Nursing mothers will find<br />

a special value in Scott's<br />

Emulsion because it insures<br />

a flow of rich, nourishing<br />

milk for the baby. More and<br />

better' than a medicine;<br />

Scott's Emulsion is a food.<br />

Scott's Emulsion is not a<br />

mere extract, containing imaginary<br />

" active principles "<br />

which do not exist, but is full<br />

of actual nourishment which<br />

sustains vital force and builds<br />

up the body tissues more<br />

rapidly than any other known<br />

remedy.<br />

RUSSIAN OFFICERS<br />

FROM PORT ARTHUR<br />

.Twenty-si- x Russian officers from<br />

Port .Arthur, who nre to be released<br />

on parole, were brought to Nagasaki<br />

by a transport at 8 a. m. on Tuesday,<br />

each officer being accompanied by an<br />

orderly. '<br />

The necessary quarantine regulations<br />

were enforced at the quarantine Bta- -<br />

tlon at Nagasaki harbor, and at 2 p,<br />

m. the party left In steam-launch- for<br />

the Mlzunoura Pier, Inasa, the launch<br />

es belonging to the local water police,<br />

harbor office, nnd fortification head<br />

quarters.<br />

On their arrival at the pier at 2:30<br />

the officers were welcomed by the municipal<br />

delegates and conducted to the<br />

GoshlnJI temple, which now takes care<br />

of the Russian cemetery nt Innsn. At<br />

the temple four tables were laid nnd<br />

refreshments nnd cigarettes were served<br />

to the Russian officers by Japanese<br />

girls. The officers were neatly attired<br />

nnd wore their swords, nnd there was<br />

nothing in their manner that betray-e- d<br />

their sufferings in the beleaguered<br />

city.<br />

Colonel Tzrlkenkoff, commnnder of<br />

tho Fifth Regiment, who was the senior<br />

officer nmong the party, delvered nn<br />

address on behalf of his fellow officers<br />

to the Japanese delegates, to the following<br />

effect:<br />

"Our present condition Is due to our<br />

defeat. We did not expect this wnrm<br />

l reception and we thank you most heart<br />

ily for It. This single Incident suffices<br />

to show that your nation Is above the<br />

common standard of the world. I nsk<br />

tho press representatives here present<br />

to publish to the world that I havo<br />

expressed the above In all sincerity."<br />

Subsequently the party put up at Mr.<br />

Matsumura s Where luncheon was<br />

served.<br />

The Tokyo Asaht's correspondent<br />

subsequently Interviewed Colonel Tzrl<br />

kenkofT nnd expressed Ills admiration<br />

of the gallant defenders of Port Arthur,<br />

The colonel thnnked the Interviewer<br />

for his compliments. He stated that<br />

he did not know when Genernl Stoessel<br />

would leave Port Arthur. He would be<br />

accompanied by his wife and four or<br />

five officers' children whose fnthers had<br />

been killed. Stoessel himself hnd no<br />

children. He hnd been wounded above<br />

the left ear but the wound had now<br />

healed. All the members of the party<br />

had been wounded, Borne as many ns<br />

four times. The colonel himself hnd<br />

been Injured in the back and there were<br />

casualties even nmong the priests. During<br />

the long Blege no soldier or sailor<br />

who had distinguished himself by val<br />

iant conduct had received decorations<br />

from home, the communications between<br />

Port Arthur nnd Russia being<br />

severed.<br />

The correspondent ndds that the police<br />

and gendnrmerle at Nagasaki are<br />

on the alert.<br />

It Is stated that General Stoessel,<br />

seven other Russian Generals and four<br />

Admirals have already given their<br />

parole not to take further part In the<br />

present war. They nnd other officers<br />

will leave Dalny for Nagasaki In a few<br />

days, nnd be temporarily quartered at<br />

Inasa, before proceeding to Shanghai,<br />

were they will be released.<br />

BOY CURED OF CROUP IN FIF<br />

TEEN MINUTES.<br />

'Chamberlain's Cough Remedy cured<br />

our little four year old boy of croup In<br />

fifteen minutes. My wife nnd I have<br />

used this remedy In our family for the<br />

past five years, having tired many other<br />

kinds previous to that time, and can<br />

say that we consider It far superior to<br />

any other. FRANK HELLYEB, Ipnva,<br />

WATKNS IN<br />

IS'S PUCE<br />

The office of the United States Shipping<br />

Commissioner, during tlje absence<br />

of B. Griggs Holt on the mainland, will<br />

be conducted by Norman Wfltklns,<br />

formerly cashier of the Hawaiian Fertilizer<br />

Company, who has been appointed<br />

clerk to the Commissioner In<br />

place of John Dias, removed from the<br />

position.<br />

The appointment of Mr. Watklns is<br />

a move in the interest of the government's<br />

plan to clean up the waterfront,<br />

which plan has by no means been<br />

abandoned. In fact, it is proposed by<br />

those In authority, both on the Territorial<br />

and Federal side, to make Honolulu<br />

a port In which sailors can be<br />

absolutely assured of fair treatment,<br />

and In which ship captains will be able<br />

to set crews without resort to, crimps,<br />

and without the terrible, necessity for<br />

shanghalng men who have never smell-e- d<br />

salt water. And that will mean nn<br />

end of making up crews as the crew of<br />

the ship Phelps was made up.<br />

However, the departure of B. Griggs<br />

Holt for tho mainland on the Korea<br />

today Is not a part of the plan. Mr.<br />

Holt had determined to visit the mainland,<br />

being cnlled there by n business<br />

offer that he felt could not be neglect<br />

ed, before the waterfront scandal<br />

broke out. When the scandal did come,<br />

his affairs were In such condition that<br />

he still felt It necessary to take tho<br />

trip. Mr, Holt purposes to return to<br />

Honolulu, although he may be taken<br />

to tho mainland permanently later by<br />

the present deal, but until he Is he will<br />

continue to conduct the office of Ship<br />

on the way to the const will take be<br />

of Hawaii to be stored away in<br />

the Benecia arsenal," said Colonel<br />

Jones yesterday. "This Is stuff that<br />

has been nccumulattng since nnnexa<br />

tlon, old nnd outworn arms and munitions<br />

of various kinds that have been<br />

superseded by later issues."<br />

Colonel Jones had a conference with<br />

Governor Carter relative to this ship<br />

ment yesterday, and will have a sec<br />

ond one very soon upon the needs of<br />

the militia at the hands of the legis<br />

lature. "It is pretty hard to say,"<br />

Colonel Jones said when asked about<br />

the matter yesterday, "Just how much<br />

will be needed to keep the guard up<br />

to the proper stundard of efficiency.<br />

There Is a need of money for target<br />

practice, for one thing. Then, there Is<br />

Editor Advertiser: It will not be long before our Legislature<br />

will meet to enact or repeal Inws for the benefit of the country at<br />

large, nnd a few suggestions at the present time will not be amiss<br />

even though they be at variance with the arguments set forth in<br />

the daily practice of our present constituted authorities.<br />

First. I would suggest that prison labor be confined to some<br />

trade or business not in conflict witli citizen labor, sny the manufacture<br />

of bags or of rope, the clearing of Government land of<br />

lantana and the planting of trees on such cleared land.<br />

In the Inst proposition, wo must ndmit for the sake of the<br />

argument that the government could liot consistently employ citizen<br />

labor on such work, but taking in consideration that nn appro<br />

priation must be made to maintain the prisoners whether they work<br />

or not such work would s'ervd a double purpose by giving health<br />

ful exercise for the goveromcnlrs" charges find m time the improvements<br />

to the governnienuland would prove a-- valuable asset.<br />

Second. That nil quarry nnd road work be done by citizen<br />

labor, and the work in each district be done by the citizen labor of<br />

that district, provided ahv.ays that sufficient lnborcrs in that dis<br />

trict can be secured, otherwise the districts nearest said work be<br />

drawn on for a sufficient .number. That no contracts be given for<br />

road work eijJier by the ' present<br />

County Uovcrnment.<br />

Third. That the minimum<br />

work, (county or otherwise) by<br />

$l.o per day of eight hours. In<br />

have nny doubts about what wages he will receive under government<br />

employ, and he will be ehnbled to pay the butcher, the baker,<br />

and the grocer; the money paid by the people in the way of taxes<br />

will ngnin be in circulation and all will bo benefited, the laborer<br />

especially.<br />

The question may be raised that with the increased rate of<br />

wages there will not be enough money in the Treasury to do any<br />

great amount of work. I would answer thnt where the Territory<br />

or the Count', ns the case may be, is deprived of any revenue for<br />

store licenses ns nt present, a law regulating1 such licenses should<br />

l.e mnde, thereby increasing the revenue.<br />

I would suggest also that all<br />

!j25 be paid quarterly in advance,<br />

ment to tnkc out n license, thereby<br />

as having to pay for a year in advance, t would, m many cases<br />

prove a hardship. A tenant docs not pay his rent a year in advance.<br />
