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 />

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 />

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 />

We call your attention to the party<br />
rate of $110 now in effect which Is good<br />
on any steamer of the lines now ply-<br />

to return by any steamer.<br />
If a reduced rate were made by the<br />

satisfactorily for the reason thaj, pas-<br />
sengers holding return reduced rate<br />
passage orders would Insist on return-<br />

We regret therefore, that It is not<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 />

be necessary to counteract the Insinu<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 />
children In the schools.<br />
In 1900 there were 12S9 Chinese<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 />

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 />

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 />
on the table.<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 />
July 1.<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

by tho Territory In lighting and<br />
"If, after hearing the evidence, you<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 />

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 />
be paid by a subscription.<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

folklore. Did the Irony clrcumstnnccs<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 />

Most of the work done by electric pow<br />

The new Canadian company has se-<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 />

"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 />
and alleges that It is $1000. The re-<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 />

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 />
ABOUT HALF A MILLION<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

PRISON LABOR, ROAD WORK,<br />
WAGES AND LIQUOR LICENSES<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 />

"The next transport passing Honolulu<br />
on the way to the const will take be<br />
tween five and six tons of quartermasters'<br />
stores discarded by the militia<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 />
money required for transportation,<br />
Thnt one item covers a multitude of<br />
expenditures, such as tnklng men from<br />

United States government pays the<br />
expenses of going into camp annually,<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 />
