devoted to his wife. Mrs. Mackey had
a little fortune of her own, and her
husband borrowed money from her
regularly. He soon began to absent
himself from home, and has been
away for weeks at time during the
last two years. He told his wife that
he was attending important legal cases,
which would bring him large fees.
Mrs. Mackey never saw any of the
money he got as fees. Her husband
did not like to live long in any one
house, and since 1891 they have lived
at 1876 West Ninetieth street, AZ East
s9th street, 70 East 105th street, 80
East Tenth street, and they moved
about a year ago to the Catharine
apartment house, 226 East Hath street.
He claimed that it was unhealthful to
live longer than three months in any
house.
THE THIRD WEDDING.
On June s last Mackey told his wife
that he was going to Washington to
attend to an important case, and
would be absent for long time. Dur
ing her absence he packed up all his
clothing, and she says he also drew
about $4,000 of her money. She heard
nothing from him, and could not get
any trace OF him in Washington. Act

MAN GA VALLEY.

The INDEPENDENT published com
munioation on Thursday, in which a
Manoa fruit grower took exceptions
to certain reports in connection
with the Manoa "raid" which have
appeared in the official organ.
Mr.. D. G.. Camarinos, an expert
grower and dealer in fruits, is
anxious to meet THE INDEPENDENTS
correspondent, who claims that from
$15O to 5000 worth OF fruits are
sold every week by the fruit growers
in Manoa. The late 2. G. CANA
rinos had a fruit farm in Manoa
valley, and the administrator was
only too happy when somebody else
purchased the lands. Other experts
in the fruit business hold that the
claims OF the Chinese and Hawai-
ians in regard to the alleged "raid"
by soldiers are exaggerated and alb
surd, and it seems to us that the
best thing to do is to have an abso-
lutte impartial investigation OF the
whole matter.
We do not claim TO know anything
about the general conduct of the
soldiery now stationed at Waikiki,
but we do know, that the Hawaiians
at Walalae are in fear OF the
marauders and have written to their
landlord, Mr.. D. Paul r, Isenberg at
Kauai for permission to move into
the mountains beyond his premises.
Mr.. Isenberg intends himself to re-
main on Kauai, until the military
camp has been removed from his
neighborhood, at Waialae, all OF
which seems to indicate that the
Manoa raid is not altogether the in
vention of someone, who wants to
make pile out OF Uncle Sam.
The town is being patrolled every
night by U. S. cavalry who have
been specially detailed to watch the
Boys in Blue who try to break
liberty and paint the town red. II
might have been better il the mill
tary authorities had adopted the
precautions before the Manoa rait
happened.

1t was left to Mr.. James X. Kau-
liza and his society to take a step,
which may injure the Hawaiians
and more especially the younger
generation. The Aloha Alma Society
has been a body with great deal
of pull, politically and otherwise.
1t sent to Washington Mr.. Kaulia
as a delegate, and when he returned
he still commanded the confidence
of his people, the knowledge of the
true situation as far as Hawaii
was concerned in Washington, and
yet he approved Of even if he did
not write the memorial, in which he
makes his Association ask for the
impossible, the restoration Of the
independence and the monarchy of
Hawaii.

Sir VIM, Harcourt, in letter to
the Times says, that the principal
author of the chaos and confusion
existing in the church of England
is the Primate of the Church, who
seems to regard the established
church as an experimental field for
ritualistic essays and reviews. He
reminds his readers that "the Church
of England does not consist of, nor
is it at the disposal of, the bishops
and the clergy. They, happily, are
not it's masters and law. .givers. The
law has provided against their
sacerdotal usurpation for the pro-
lection of the laity, who will do we'll
to enforce its sanctions" Happily
in our domestic churches we are not
subject to the "lawlessness" which
appears to be splitting the mother
church in England asunder.

The Latest Labor Tragedy.

So far as the public is informed as 70
the causes of the labor trouble at Nir-
den, ILL.,, its sympathies are undoubt-
edly with the strikers. Although the
case of the latter Is weakened 10y re-
sort to violence, there can be little
doubt that the best sentiment Of the
country will strongly condemn the i'm
portation of convict labor to take the
place of the strikers, who. up to the
moment of such importation, conducted
themselves, it appears. with becoming
moderation and obedience to law. That
in the face of such competition the
strikers should momentarily have lost
control of themselves is deplorable, but
it is not unnatural Human nature
must be reckoned with as well as law
This latest labor tragedy simply re-
| emphasizes the act that things can be
too cheap. Mad competition in the soft
coal market has in many localities
beaten down the price Of coal to a point
where a living wage to miners is praC-
tically impossible. The right of the
miners to demand living wage is un-
assailable. The moral duty of the mine
owners to pay it is equally undeniable.
If this can be done only through a COM
hination of producing interests to force
up the selling price it will become
equally the duty of consumers to pay
an increased price. Any price which
continuously represents begsary tn
labor and loss to invested capital is an
! immoral price. in the guilt of which all
are involved who knowingly and will
| ingly avail themselves of it.
| Violence. however. is not remedy
| for any of these ills. Violence simply
| intensifies them. Labor and capital do
| their best work and reach their best
ends when working together in intelli-
| gent harmony. No sensible employer
wants discontented help and no ra-
| tional emplove wants to force an en-
| ployer into insolvency. Where reason
and arbitration are powerless force is
equally futile.
