10 Ihe Edluor OF the Republican.
In the Baltimore Morning Herald
OF October II we have an account
Of Vice President Steyenson's ad-
dress at Lincoln, ILL.,, on the 10th
inst. In telling of the great achiev-
ments Of the Democratic party he
said, ''you will bear in mind that
the billion dollar Congress- con-
trolled by the Republicans created
more than twelve hundred new fed
eral offices at total annual cost to
the people of more than $4,000
0OO." lie then goes on to say that
the Democratic Congress had so
managed affairs that more than
six hundred useless offices have
been abolished and governmental
expenses thereby lessened annually
to the extent Of nearly 81 600, 900. "
Here is sample of the misrepre-
sentatlon that Democratic speakers
and papers are giving to the people.
Here is the Vice President of the
United States trying to mislead the
people; STOPPING to such a dirty lit
tie trick to gain votes of which a
ward politician would hardly be
guilty. Let us see what is in the
above quotation.
We admit that the Republican
Congress did create the new offices
as charged above, but what for:
To take the census. This is why
those Offices were created and as the
work was accomplished the force
was and is being reduced. The
census was the cause of the creation
OF the new Offices and now the work
Of enumerating and other branches
of the work have been completed,
the force has been reduced and
Democratic Pharisees Of the Steven
son type are going the rounds talk
ing to the people of economy and
thanking God that they arc not as
other men are nor even as these Re-
publicans.
Yes, they have reduced the num-
Der Of employees and thus saved "a
hull million Of dollars"
We admit that the Congress of
which that terrible being Gear"
Reed was Speaker the appropria-
tions did reach in round numbers a
billion dollars. But what is the
record of the Democratic Congress?
Iii is a fact that cannot be disputed
that while the Reed or Republican
"blllion dollar Congress" appropri-
ated in two years 1888, 417, 1884,
the total appropriations for two
years Of the Fifty-second Demo
cratic) Congress were 1902, 1O4,
547.92, Thus we see that in two
years the economical Democrats
spent 1913, G87,3G4.5S more than the
extravagant Republicans had done
in the same length of time.
Moreover, we find from authentic

brilliant success in every way, and
was enjoyed immensely by all the

The handsome residence was
made still more attractive for the
occasion, being most beautifully
decorated with evergreens, flowers
and ferns, Chinese lanterns, etc.,
and presenting the most charm
ing picture imaginable.
Dancing commenced early ana

MEASLES ON BOARD.
A Case During the Trip of the
Australia.

When the Port Physician boarded
the Australia on Saturday morning
he was greeted with the news that
there was a case of measles on
board. When the doctor investi-
gated, however, he found that the
one afflicted with the disease had
fully recovered.
The child of Mrs. Maxwell was
the patient, and the case broke out
soon after the Australia left San
Francisco. When DR.. Myers, who
ia acting for DR.. Andrews during
the latter's illness, examined the
child, he found that she had passed
the worst part of the disease, and
was as good as well.
AS soon as it was discovered on
the ship that there were measles
aboard, the child was isolated from
the rest of the passengers and at
tended by her mother. Their hand
baggage was. fumigated, and all
precautions taken 10 prevent any
spread of the disease. The conse-
ouence was that the ship arrived
without any spread of the conta-
gion.

A WE'LL KNOWN MAN.
The Death and Funeral Of Jack
Ailau.

Jack" ALLAH, one of the best
known natives in Honolulu, left on
the last Australia accompanied by
his wife to take charge OF part OF
the Hawaiian exhibit at the Mid
winter Fair. Saturday, when the
steamer arrived, his many friends
were greatly shocked to hear that
ON the 18th instant, In San Fran
cisco. Jack had died. His wife re-
turned, bringing the body with her.
The funeral took place yesterday
from the ALLAH house on Kukul
street. There was very large at
tendance, both natives and whites
being present to do honor to the
well-known musician. The pail
bearers, who were principally his
fellow-members of the Quintette
Club, were as follows: J. l.. Kaulu-
kou, Jos. Heleluhe, David l.. Kala-
| waia, kama Wiliokai, Jno. Kala-
ma, Kemalia Kuhia, Joe Aea and
d. Kamoehookahi.
The band accompanied the fun
eral procession to the cemetery;
where many loving friends laid
flowers on the grave. Jack will be
greatly missed as a most familiar
| figure in Honolulu, and his wife
has the sympathy of the entire
community.

able by fine and imprisonment. the seizure
and destruction OF a vessel engaged in the
same business would be piracy. and punish
able by death. Among the definitions of
piracy in the United States laws is the fol-
lowing: Every person who, upon the high

any river where the sea Gibbs and flows,
commits the crime of robbery, in or upon
any vessel, or upon any ships ompany of
any vessel, or the lading thereof, is a
pirate, and shall suffer DEATH" The courts
have held that all the laws defining piracy
on tide water extend also to the great
lakes. 1t is apparent, therefore, that if
the attacks on trains and the footing of
cars which has been done on land had been
done upon vessels engaged in the lake or
coastwise trade the perpetrators OF the
crime could be hanged as pirates. And
there is no difference in principle between
piracy on land and on water. In a moral
point of view Debs and his agents are
pirates.

PULLMAN AND HIS MONOPOLY.

Now that the Debs strike is drawing to
an end it is proper to turn attention to
some of the other parties who have been re-
motely connected with the trouble which
has brought loss to many thousand people.
The Pullman company could not yield and
such a demand as he did. Doubtless the
company had nothing to a%rbitrate; but
when it was proposed, as a measure to
aIlay popular feeling, hat the Pullman
company should meet a committee, with the
selection of which Debs would have nothing
to do. on which he would nave no repre-
sentative and made up of men of high char
acter. to see if it was true that the COM
pany's employees had no grievance. and
that proposition was rejected. it is not too
much to say that Mr.. Pullman, who is re-
sponsible. displayed a lack of consideration
for the public welfare at large
and for his fellow-citizens whose property
was in great peril. which can fairly be con-
demned. Instead of remaining in Chicago
with such men as Armour he vent to a
distant resort and there refused TO be seen
by the agents of the Associated Press. The
recent humiliation of the Carnegie COM
pany. the result of the absolutism of Prick
at Homestead. seems to have been lost
upon the Pullman company.
In this connection it may be added that
II is sincerely hoped by the travelling pub
lie that Senator Sherman's resolution to
investigate the Pullman car monopoly will
bear fruit. For years the people have sub
mitted TO be sponged by exorbitant charges
for inferior accommodations, and in addi-
ton purchase civility of it's employees by
making up the wages which the company
did not pay. With long leases of it's cars
to the railroads. under patents extended
from time to time, the introduction of bet
ter or at least cheaper rate cars has been
prevented. Congress has absolute control
over interstate transportation. and conse-
quently over the charges for the Pullman
cars. The travelling public would he de-
lighted to have Congress break up the
grasping monopoly.

PROPOSED INVESTIGATION.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE House
committee on interstate and foreign COM
merce decided, to-day, after a long and
spirited session, to investigate the labor
troubles growing out of the Pullman strike.
AT 3 o'clock the full committee voted to
report to the House the following resolu-
ton of investigation:
Whereas, The Constitution of the United
States gives to the Congress of the United
States alone the power to regulate COM
merce among the several States, and
Whereas, Said commerce has been and

Resolved, That the committee on inter-
state and foreign be and is here
by directed TO investigate said interference
and interruption, and the causes thereof,
and inquire as to what additional legisla-
ton, if any, is necessary TO prevent a re-
currence thereof. Said committee shall
have the power TO delegate a subcommittee
of its members 10 visit the places where
such interferences and Interruptions have
occurred, If, in its judgment, the same be
necessary. 1t may send for persons and
papers, examine witnesses under oath, en-
ploy stenographers, sit during the recess

ascertain the facts connected with the sub
ject of inquiry. 1t shall report to the
House at as early a day as practicable the
results of its Investigations and shall make

THE EMBARGO LIFTED.

-
It Is now safe to say that the embargo
which the Debs ~conspirators put upon the
railroad traffic of the country is practically
ended, except on the Pacific coast. where
the disciples of the fallen chief are yet
laboring to emancipate the Pullman car
builders by undermining bridges so that
trains will fall through to kill ~workingmen
and those detailed to protect traffic. Mr..
Debs may not admit it; indeed, he may yet
send out circulars declaring that the out
look was never so bright for his deluded
followers, but the American people, who
see the trains assuming their former regu-
conspiracy to throttle the business Of the
country has failed. 1t will take some time
to get matters adjusted to the old basis.
There are tracks to relay. switches to re-
pair, signal stations to restore in Chicago
and other cities where unfaithful officers
permitted the lawless spirit to get the up
per hand. For some days 1t will be neces-
sary to keep troops at the danger points,
but the hour has passed when an EFFORT will
be made to tie up transportation and to in
augurate the reign of the torch and blud-
geon.
Nor Is there much apprehension regarding
the positive effect Of the labor strike which
Sovereign and his co-conspirators are at
tempting to inaugurate. 1t would interfere
with business to some extent. but it cannot
restore the railroad blockade. The first re-
Spouse to the Sovereign proclamation can
not be regarded as promising, even by a
person so wholly imaginative as is the gen.
eral master workman. To others it must
presage utter failure. A few of his fol-
lowers may come out to-day. but the num-
Der cannot be large. President Gompers
has been called to a consultation. BY ma
ture, he is a conservative man, so if he
should be forced to any sort of Endorsement
OF a general strike of the trades unions,
it will be through fear Of offending the radi-
cal and foreign element in the national or
ganization which attempted to defeat him

he should favor a sympathetic strike, all
that he could do would be to advise, as the
unions must choose for themselves. There
is reason to believe that he will not give
any such advice. If he should, there is rea-
son to believe that the more important
unions would not leave their employment
to show their sympathy for the Pullman
e~x-employes and their detestation of the
Pullman company. Wage-earners in the
unions are, for the most part, men of prac-
teal sense and they have had time now to
canvass the whole subject for themselves.
They must see that they cannot affect the
status of the Pullman difficulty. The Jour-
nal believes that the crisis has passed and
that restoration to normal conditions will
