=. T.. Cheer Learns Something of the
Methods Of the Police.
5. p. Cheer and a companion were ar
rested several weeks ago charged with hav-
ing swindled a street car conductor. The
police were in possession Of what was sup
posed TO be strong evidence that Cheer and
his companion were following that line as
profession When the case was heard by
Police Judge McGec both men were repre-
| seuted by an attorney. No evidence what
ever was introduced to show that Cheers
companion was implicated in the street car
deal, and the companion was discharged.
Cheer produced no evidence to show his In
noCence and announced his intention at one
stage Of the proceedings to waive prelim-
mary inquiry and let the grand jury look
into his case. While the matter was still
undecided Judge McGee ended it by sending
Cheer to the county Jail until the grand
jury met. When the judicial inquisitors met
they ignored the charges but Cheer did not
get his liberty. He has been spending the
late cold snap in a comfortable cell in the
steam-heated and well lighted county Jail.
/ When the weather moderated Cheer was
seized with a desire to recover his freedom
He called attention Of the jail officials to
the fact that he was being held without au-
thority, but there were no persons about the
sheriff's office who felt willing to take the
responsibility of turning the man loose Yes
! terday he grew weary waiting and got an
attorney to sue out writ of habeas corpus
The matter was heard before Judge Macy
in tho district court yesterday. Judge Nc
Gee was called upon to give testimony and
informed the court that Cheer had testified
! in his own behalf at the hearing in the po-
lice court. Cheer and the attorney who
represented him at that time testified that
the prisoner never opened his mouth. The
effort to impeach Judge McGee's testimony
created some interest and its failure still
more.
Judge Macy took the matter under advise
ment with the promise that his decision
would be rendered in a day or two. In the
meantime Cheer still occupies his comforta-
Bile quarters in the big cylinder.
The efforts to get Cheer out of Jail are
! largely duo to his sister who arrived from
her home in Illinois day or two ago. Cheer
is said to be a member of an excellent fam
| lily and is well connected.

THE fact that the sensational
newsmonger OF the United States
has no further use for material
concerning the Hawaiian Islands,
except it is a filibuster yarn, has
given many the erroneous impress
sion that to the American people
Hawaiian affairs are dead. Moth
ing could be more remote from the
correct situation. Hawaiian affairs
have the good fortune to have passed
the sensational stage and have
settled down to a sound business
basis when plenty of work is being
done, but with little or no display.
The annexation movement is going
steadily forward, and the outlook
for the cooperation of the United
States assisting the cable scheme
bids fair to become fact before the
CLOSE of the present session OF Con-
gress. The Chronicle sizes up the
situation as follows: "The question
of submarine cable to connect the
United States with Hawaii has
come to stay. and it is bound to be
determined in the affirmative soon
.er or later. AS to how the scheme
shall be carried out, whether the
G government of the United States
shall lay the cable or shall sub
sidize a private corporation or shall
agree upon a fixed rate of tolls for
national uses or how it shall be
done makes but little difference.
The gist of the thing is that the
United States, in its corporate ca
pacity, needs a telegraph line to the
Sandwich islands, and if it will not
pay for itself the United States can
better afford to help build it than
to pay fancy salaries to Paramount
Blount and his assistants" In
other words, the necessity of assist
ing the cable project has become an
e established fact, the only thing re-
naming being determination OF
the best ways and means to accom-
plish the end.

WHILE the flibustering schemes
of Markoe, Morrow and others
have unfortunately served to keep
alive a certain distrust as to the
political conditions in this coun-
try, they have proved the idiocy OF
C. w. Ashford's claim of not being
connected with the conspiracy.
The wording of Markoe's letter
shows that if the document was
not dictated by Ashford the author
has at least been a close student Of
his opinions and his style of ex-
pressing them.

sugar values has caused
plantation owners and every
body interested in the pro-
duction of that staple COM
modify much satisfaction.
This is as it should be, for
without sugar what would
become of the country. Of
course there are other and
varied industries, but none
so important and profitable
as sugar.
In order to make sugar the
mills must be kept going,
and to do this will require
oil. This is the time that all
mills in the islands are run
ming steadily, and it is but
proper that the attention of
mill men should be called to
the best grades of lubricants.
1t has been demonstrated
beyond question that Colo
RADIO Oil is of superior quail
ity and best suited to the
requirements of plantation
machinery of all kinds. No
oil introduced here has given
such general satisfaction as
the Colorado. 1t is the best
quality of lubricant manu-
factured--fo: the reasons that
it has body and strength, the
two great essentials that go
toward making an oil that
will fulfill all requirements.
The Colorado has received
the endorsement Of numer-
Gus engineers: on the differ4
ent plantations Of the islands.
The best evidence of its
popularity and superior quail
IitV is the fact that it is used
all over the islands, and has
given the best of satisfaction
in every case. An engineer
knows a good thing as we'll
as any one else, and when
once. Colorado oil is used,
none other will be given

We have another brand of
oil--COronado, which is not
so high priced, but is guar
Ianteed a good lubricant for
all kinds OF machinery. lhlS
can be furnished in grades
for mill and engine use, and
for valve and cylinder, at
satisfactory prices.
We can furnish any grade
er priced engine oil desired
but advise you to buy only
the best quality--for in oil
as in other things, it always
pays to buy the best.
All oils sold by us are
guaranteed and when yor
buy from our house, you
can be assured Of getting

SOBRIETY AND PATRIOTISM.

If the Sunday night sermon OF
Rev. Mr.. Peck has been properly
reported, it would appear that the
reverend gentleman is thoroughly
convinced that Honolulu needs
"Parkhursting," that the Govern
ment needs a new religious birth
and one religious organization at
least is dabbling in ward politics.
We realize fully that this energetic
pastor is prompted by the best OF
motives, that he has the welfare of
the nation at heart and sincerely
desires to see greater purity in the
religious atmosphere of the coun-
try. Yet, even on religious topics,
there is an opportunity for an hon
est difference of opinion as to the
ways and means of obtaining this
publication. From the remarks of
last Sunday the casual observer
might easily draw the conclusion
that we of Honolulu are overrun
with spiritual rottenness of disa-
greeable type, if not the worst. Mr..
Peck slashes right and left, puts his
knife in at one end of the town,
rips along at dashing rate, and
tells us he has not finished his
work. ---.--.-.
But with a few exceptions, we
find Mr.. Peck tearing up old
ground, ground that is today being
quietly but none the less carefully
worked over, and slowly but none
the less surely improved. We
must admit that there is plenty of
sin and iniquity in this city
show us the place of $4,000 inhab-
itants where it does not exist-but
it will not be overcome by minis
terial attack upon church organi-
cations and Government officers
whose official integrity and ability
is unquestioned. We are told
there is a common rumor that APP
plicants for Government positions
must either be in with "Tim's''
gang or "join the Central Union
Church. Are we to consider that
the head of the Methodist Church
believes these rumors to be true
If so, it is equal to saying that
applicants should keep away from
the Central Union Church apd
Friend Tim" if they wish to re,
tain their self-respect. We know
of nothing more to be Stunned
by self-respecting manhood thar
''toadyism." On this point at least
Mr.. Peck, in his ministerial capa'
city, kicks over the traces. He
gives importance to street rumor
a ocular expression, that is moi
worthy of passing attention. Pos
sibly Honolulu does need Park
bursting" but there can be little
good accomplished by attacking
fellow Christians.
Rev. DR.. Newman Smyth of New
Haven said recently in the course
of political sermon: "There is 6
long road of investigation and
diplomacy before us, and if the
sober, conservative men of the
country, however they may dis
sent, will not themselves initiate
the intemperance OF Jingoism, but
express their dissent soberly anC
with that respect for our govern
ment which patriotism requires
we may hope in time for a reason
able and peaceable solution"
The same may be said of many
of the problems now before the peo-
pie of this country. There is 6
long road of investigation and re-
igious diplomacy before US, ano
nothing can do more harm thar

THE GRASS GossooN

James b. Olcott, the grass sharp
who was here a few months ago, is
a kind of mean chap. Honolulu
gentlemen in his line extended him
every courtesy that their thoughts
could suggest, yet he has reserved for
publication in far-off Connecticut.
where the tobacco leaf is the chief
table decoration, some brutal COM
ment on lawn making in Hawaii that
made here in the proper spirit would
have been gratefully considered. Mr..
olcott says that the gardeners here
know nothing whatever about the cul-
ture of turf. He noted that grass was
being grown under coacoanut trees
and that it was killing the trees. This
will stand approved with the amend
ment that trees are not dying from
that cause or any other. Continuing
Mr.. Olcott remarks that there are nc
creditable lawns here because the
work of making them has been en-
trusted to Germans. A couple of er'
rors this time. All visitors, including
all experts, concede with enthusiastic
praise, that Honolulu has some of the
finest grass plots in the world. 1t is
doubtful if single one is in the
hands of German. The work is en-
tirely in charge of japanese and
Chinese. Mr.. Olcott was here ten
DAYS.

ACTION IMPERATIVE.

The constituents of the members of
the Legislature, the adherents of the
Government and all the people of all
Hawaii, especially the middle class in
dividuals, expect from this assembly
an Income Tax Law. Only Il carefully
considered measure is desired, but
what may be called a demand for Il
statute in that direction is very gen
eral and pronounced. The House has
responded to the sentiment of the
electors and the fate of the act in
question is now with the Senate. II
it fails there the responsibility will
lie with the Upper Branch, though
part of the odium of neglect, or lack
of interest, of effort on behalf of the
greatest good for the greatest number
will attach to the Administration and
it's support The Senate can do nc
better than pass this measure boldly
If it does not do this it will be re-
miss in its work.
