tho hope that influences may be brought
to bear,which will defeat the bill al

Under the rules of the Senate debate

Republicans do not need to 60 out Of
their way.t to find indictments against
the Democratic party. Democrats and
Democratic newspaper are constantly
furnishing them, and one Of the latest,
though 1t deals with mo- facts not al.
ready known to the public, is presented
by the New York World, which says:
sThe fall trade was killed by the pro.
longation Of the struggle over the re-
peal OF the Sherman law. The spring
trade for this year has been reduced
to the smallest possible dimensions by
the uncertainty over tariff revision.
Shall next summers and next autumn's
trade-the arrangements for which
must soon be made-be killed also?
Business can stand four years of any
tariff better than four months more Of
uncertainty"
Here Isl frank admission that the
fall trade Of this country was killed by
the Democratic party, and that the
same organization has reduced the
spring trade to the smallest possible
dimensions. The Democrats In Com
gress could have repealed the Sherman
law within q week after meeting in
extra session, had they chosen to do so.
But there was something more than
fhe delay In repeating the silver pur-
chase law at the bottom of the busi-
ness depression, and that was fear Of
tariff changes, and the same cause has
been at work ever since.
The Republican party is in no way
responsible for the present tariff agf-
tation. It had furnished tariff under
which the country prospsred and was
bound to continue to prosper so long as
the Republicans remained in power.

gree Of prosperity will return.

LETTER FROM MRS. THIRDS. IN
EXPLANATIONS.
Outline of the Plan-why the Original
Glass Is Not Elementary-The
Meeting Tomorrow.

EDITOR STAR: Will you kindly give
space to the correction of an error
which has received currency through
recent notices in the daily press5
1t appears that complaint has been
made that there is no elementary class
here for the study of Theosophy, where
admittanCe is gained without favorite-
ISM Now am pleased TO learn that
a demand has arisen for a new class
and approve any effort to assist others
IN study. But the complaint of favor
llsm is based upon an erroneous idea
That is sure to cause misunderstanding
of the objects and methods of the Theo-
sophical Society. and could only come
from one unfamiliar with its Workings
hence the need of explanation.
The chief object of the society is to
form the nucleus of a universal brother
hood. This is to be achieved. not by
the violent breaking down of social or
intellectual distinctions, but by the pro-
mitigation of philosophy which will
gradually substitute altruism for selfish
ness in daily life. 1t is not inconsistent
with the formation of limited classes
FOR study. One such body ] am per
sonally condu ting, and | have re-
peatedly expressed my willingness to
meet "lln any sllnlltG tiuSSbS winch
might be arranged for me. Moreover,
would be glad to meet inqurers who
desire to consult me regarding Theo-
snphical matters.
The truth is that the class now meet
ing is not arranged for beginners. hut
is the revival of an old class which de-
cided to pursue further study together.
This they have an unquestionable right
to do. Indeed, in no other
manner could progress beyond the
elemementary stage be achieved, for an
open meeting, admitting new members
at every session, would necessitate a
continual repetition of first principles.
This is so obvious that one is surprised
to find the limitation OF Il class construed
as favoritism
1t is to be hoped that no further mis-
understanding will be possible, but that
all who wish an opportunity to learn
more OF Theosophy will make their
desires known. Tomorrow Tuesday
evening an open meeting will be held in
the hall Of Foster block when | will ex-
plain the fundamental teachings of
Theosophy. Questions relating to it or
to any Philosophical matters will then
be answered. All are cordially invited
to be present. MERcGE NJ. THIRDS.

The bark Harvester which arrived
from Karluk August Both, brought the
latest news of the Alaska salmon run,
and considering the lateness of the
season lnlS year tne returns are very
good for the combine. Last year the
catch resulted in about 100000 cans,
and this years run will amount TO very
near the same. This return it is said
will have the effect of making the
market stable, if there is no heavy
demand from England. In the latter
event the price of salmon will
advance according to the demand.
From reports received from Alaska the
run has been light in some places, but
has averaged up well at other points.
In Southwestern Alaska there has been
a mortgage, but this is not of SO much
consequence, as the greater portion OF
the output there is the pink or cheap
variety of salmon. At Karluk, l under
stand, the catch has been very good.
The winter there extended very late
into the spring months, so that the
season was short one.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS.

An authentic statement that Million
aire Byers has suddenly lost his last
dollar would doubtless relieve a wearied
public of the necessity of following his
will-o'-the-wisp flights from wife to
doctor from doctor to detective, and
then back again. In his present fnan-
cial condition Mr.. Byers is simply en-
barrassed by friends.-Chicago Herald.
Concerning Mr.. Debs' charges against
General Miles, the Evening Post says
oracularly: "The story seemed incred-
ible to those who know General Miles. :"
The Post is mistaken as usual. To those
who know General Miles no story about
him is credible.-Chicago Tribune.
Cornmeal manufacturers are engaged
in the formation of trust. As they
are doubtless looking for big monopoly
and large profits, the proposed trust
might be styled combination OF "hog
and ominy."-Philadelphia Inquirer.
Edward d. Cope declared before the
scientists the other day that we are de-
scended from apes. That doesn't make
much difference provided we are de-
scended far enough. But Cope should
speak merely for himself. - Brooklyn

The fact that Secretary Gresham has
got along so far without getting this
Government tangled up in the Oriental
war is doubtless due largely to his great
distance from the scene of operations

MAUI CORRESPONDENCE.
ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ISLAND
TEACHERS.
Closing of Public Road-Appointment
of New Road Board Favor to
Correspondents.

WAILUKU, September i5.-The annual
meeting of the Maui Teachers Associa-
ton took place at Waikiki Union
School this morning. A large number
of teachers from the various schools of
the Island were in attendance. The
object of this meeting, as stated in
short address by Mr.. II. S. Townsend
of Lahainaluna, the retiring President
of the Association, was to reorganize
and choose plan of work for the COM
ing year. The election of Off GERS for
the ensuing year showed the following
result: Mr. j. A. Moore, President;
Mr.. d. d. Baldwin, Vice-President; Miss
C. L. Turner, Secretary and Treasurer;
Messrs. II. S. Townsend, f. W. Hardy
and Miss Malone, Executive Committee.
Rumor has it that deal is about to
he perfected by which the Waikapu
Sugar Co. will purchase from Mr. c. A.
Spreckels the lands and other property
of the Waikapu Sugar Co., and the
Waikapu cane will hereafter be flumed
TO and ground at the Waikiki Mill.
The management of Spreckelsville
Plantation have lately fenced in the
Kahului commons, thereby completely
closing up the principal road from
Kahului to Makawao. To the knowl-
edge of several kamaainas here this
road has been in existence and open to
public traffic for about fifty years, and
considerable doubt is expressed as to
the right of the parties named to per-
emptorily close the road, and Wailubu
should certainly take immediate steps
to cause said road to be reopened 1t is
fact that repairs on this road have for
years been made at the expense of the
taxpayers.
The intelligence reached here this week
that the newly appointed members OF
the Waikiki Road Board are Mr.. G. b.
Wells, manager of Waikiki plantation,
Mr.. c. NJ. Walton, manager OF Waihee
plantation, and NJ. p. Waiwaiole, pound
master at Wailuku. On the whole,
while no reflection is made on the per
sonel OF the new Road Board, its COM
position OF two plantation managers and
a Hawaiian who is not looked upon as
an authority upon roads, and who
simply represents nothing so far as a
taxpayers standard is concerned, taken
in connection with several recent ap-
pointments in other directions on this
island, is a serious disappointment to a
large number OF the faithful supporters
of the Republic. The old complaint of
plantation government is being revived
and may tend to ALLEVIATE much OF the
active support so essentially necessary
to our new born institutions.
The Iwaani called into Maalaea Bay
yesterday to convey to Honolulu Mr.. H..
p. Baldwin and sons and Mr.. c.. NJ.
Walton and others, thereby giving Maui
people chance to answer their Australia
mail by the same boat. Masters Frank
and Arthur Baldwin will return to the
States to continue their studies.

All efforts to move her proved futile,
and Captain Simonson put off in his

do nothing. Then a petty officer with

volunteered their services, which were
readily accepted.

A SAD RETURN.
Captain Svenson Arrives in Port and

Captain svenson Arrives in Port and
Hears of His Young Wife's Death.
The Matilda, Captain Svenson, ar
rived this morning twenty five days
from Port Townsend. She brings a
cargo OF lumber for Allen d Robinson.
Just before entering port Captain Sven
son was told of the death OF his young
wife which occurred a few weeks ago,
and OF which he had not heard. Under
the strain OF the sad news the captain
retired to his cabin aud broke down
down under his keen distress.
The story is pathetic one and will be
remembered by every one. Captain
Svenson was married to young
woman barely 81 years of age, in May,
and Immediately left in the Matilda for
Honolulu on their bridal trip. While
here Mrs. Svenson was taken sick. 1t
was necessary for her husband to leave
her and return with his vessel to the
Sound. While away the young wife
died and was buried in Nuuanu Gene
ferry
