On June II petition was fled with
Attorney General Mylrea requesting
him to begin action to test the vail
dity of the new apportionment law.
The grounds OF attack are. that the
governor had no legal authority to
call special session to pass an APP
portionment law and that consequent
liz the law Is null and void, that the
constitutional requirements relating
to equality Of population, contiguity
OF territory and compact Of form
of the various senate and assembly
districts have been violated and

The agricultural ants" of Sonora,

and regularly harvest their crops, upon
which they depend wholly for food In
fact, should the crops fail, they would
perish OF famine. On the other hand,
the cereals that they grow have been

Comptroller EckIes Before Cincinnati
Business Men-Some Existing Evils,
as He Sees Them, Pointed Out-Business
Men Should Have a Voice in the Bush
ness Legislation of the Country.
CINCINNATI, April 1S.-Hon. James
Eckels, comptroller of the currency,
addressed an audience of 1000 Cincin-
natl business men here yesterday. Mr..
hekeis address was on the subject of
national finances and the currency,
and was IN response to d joint invita-
ton OF the chamber of commerce, the
clearinghouse association and the
Commercial club of Cincinnati.
lie was introduced by Mr.. J. Il.
Hearne, president of the Third ma
tlonal bank, who presented the speaker
IN few brief and appropriate remarks.
Mr.. Eckels took the stand at eight
o'clock, and spoke for over two hours.
lie said he had no sympathy with that
sentiment which sprang from dema-
gogy and misguided politics that ex-
Guided the ~distinctively business man
from having a commanding voice in
the settlement of questions which
We're wholly OF a business character.
In the past there had been too much
fear Of the hue and cry of noisy agi-
tators and breeders of discomfort and
STRIFE on the part of business men,
and the result was, the nation was
confronted with conditions that were
a continual source of harm. The peo-
pie stood in need of complete free
dom from the agitations which had
menaced prosperity and impoverished
the citizen since the war. At no time
within the last thirty years had such
serious conditions confronted the bust
ness world. The business depression
of to-day was caused by legislation,
which gave new power to the free sill
yer advocates and placed a larger
burden on the treasury's gold reserve
without increasing the nations gold or
giving the secretary additional power
to protect the same. There never we're
so large Investments of foreign capt.
tai IN the United States as in the years
immediately preceding 1890. There
never Were such small as in the years
after that date. The legislation of
tlid year ccolnpllSneu WnaC all the
other currency heresies and follies
OF three decades could not do. The
American business world to-day is
witnessing the result of doubt and the
lessening of confidence in us on the
part of those who We're the country,s
strongest financial allies and its great
est source of capital. The home inves-
tor was none the less a doubter, and
between them there was almost COM
plete commercial paralysis in every
part OF the country. The ]pernicious
doctrine of fatism and its kindred one
OF imitation caused, in the largest de-
gree. the continued looking to congress
for monetary relief. The first essen
tial to the return of prosperity was
the determination of the free silver

Minister Willis Takes Exceptions to a sup
posed Inspired Article, but is Mo.htied
Upon ExpIanation-The Sugar Barons
Evade the Payment of just Taxation
Nine Riotous Portuguese Seriously in-
iured by the Clubs of the Police.
Especial Correspondence of the United Press
per Steamer Gaelic.l
HONOLULU, April 11.-Minister VIII
lis, who will sail for the east on
the 10th inst, on a sixty days tur-
Tough, paid his official farewell visit to
the executive on April IL. After the
customary interchange of friendly
speeches, the minister took occasion. 70
express his dissatisfaction with Il par
agraph in the Advertiser of that date,
~intimating that it was the organ of
the government, Collector j.. Il. Castle
being a principal stakeholder therein.
Foreign Minister Cooper assured MIR.
Willis that the Advertiser was in no
way controlled OF inspired by the gov
ernment and promised to speak to the
editor about the offending article,
which he did. The offending para
graph was one quoted without com
ment from an editorial in the Wash
ington Star. the most damaging words
OF which were: Minister WlIis has
no value whatever in Honolulu. But
if anything he Is a standing affront to
the people for whom the people of the
United States feel a warm attach
ment."
In the next issue it was pointed out
that the paragraph from the Wash
ington Star was printed without COM
ment and asserted the papers absolute
independence of the government. 1t
expresses regret that the American
representative should have been mis-
lea by rumors, and sincerely hoped
that Mr.. Willis would fully recover
his health, which has been sadly
broken by the nervous strain incl
dent to the trying position he has De-
cupied.
Since the disagreement of the 18th
of January there has been no direct
exchange OF social courtesies between
Minister Willis and any member OF
the executive.
Considerable excitement has follow
ed the very reluctant publication of
tax lists showing the 81 sugar corpor-
atoms with S37, s62, 900 of capital stock
paid last year only SOL, Iii in taxes,
less thai 81 per cent. of the lawful one
per cent, if assessed at their nominal
value, which is generally much below
the actual.
1.-The sugar bdrons have done their
Utmost to prevent this publication Of
the facts. The Legislature is certain
TO find a remedy for this unequal tax
alton.
A riot of Portuguese took place on
the evening of the 5th. 1t was acct
dentally provoked and had o the
slightest political significance. Nine
Portuguese were seriously hurt by the
clubs of the police.
