A New Deal

Il he retirement OF ID. b. Smith
from the Manufacturers Shoe Com
pany is quite an event in local com
mercial circles wherein Mr.. Smith
has shone by his indefatigable in
dustry, business capacity aud genial
courtesy, In public matters Mr..
Smith, as member OF the Advisory
Council, has been quite prominent
and earned golden opinions. To
him, among other things, is practic
ally due our Sunday popular con-
certs, for two years before Minister
Cooper iu'augurated them Mr. Smith
brought the matter before the Coun-
Gil and received the snubs OF the
mission aries for his pains. 1t is
pleasant to know that on his retire.
ment Mr. Smith not only enj the
confidence Of the public in his past
career, hut the satisfaction of him
self in having proved himself sue,
ressful business man. 1t is pleasure
to him to know also that in his sue
cessors to the great business he
founded he has two eminently prac-
tical aud competent young men OF
experience to carry it on. Both Mr..
w. H. Smith and Mr.. w. F. Love
are we'll known and popular gentle
men in the business and will COM
maud the respect, confidence and
patronage OF the public.

Convicted of Larceny.


G. More, an elderly man, who re-
Gently arrived here, was arraigned in
the Police Court this morning on
charge OF larceny ia the second de-
gree, by stealing certain jewelry
from the residence OF Mrs. Mon.
sarrat on Union street The Mar
shall prosecuted aud Geo. A. Davis
defended More.
Mrs Monsarrat was the first wit
ness. She identified the defendant
as the man, whom she found in her
bedroom at IL o'clock on the morn
ing Of the 18th inst. She was coming
from the kitchen, passing through
the parlor to her be droom where she
found defendant standing. Asked
what he was doing, he answered
that he was looking for Mr.. Jack
son. When told that no man by
that name lived there, he excused
himself, and Mrs. Monsarrat, who
was greatly shocked, followed him
to the front steps. Returning to
the bedroom she found that her
things on the bureau had been dis
turbed and upon inve stigation she
found an earring aud brooch miss
ing. The brooch was made of a
Maximiian dollar, which the late
Mr.. Monsarrat for many years
carried as a 'iucky COIN" and
which after his demise had
been made into a brooch The
intrinsic value Of jewelry was per-
haps $40, but to the witness it was
worth a great deal more. The wit
ness had seen no one else enter the
house during the morning aud had
been up since 6 o'clock. Her servant,
who had been in her employ during
the past seven years, was with her
during the morning.
No cross animation 10y the de-
Tense.
The next witness was Annie Alb
rim, Portuguese girl, who resides
with Miss Louise Brickwood, oppo-
site Mrs. Monsarrat She identified
More as having entered the Brick
wood premises and acting in a sus.
picious manner. He did not, to her
knowledge, enter the house.
The prosecution rested, an' Mr.
Davis declined 10 make defense OF
allow More to make a statement.
The judge said that the case for
he prosecution was not very strong
and the evidence was simply cir.
cumstautial. He said that state
menl from defendant might have
dispelled any doubt in bis mind
but as no defense was forthcoming
he would sentence More to imprison
me at hard labor.
The police has worked hard on
the ease, and great credit is due to
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth, who
has given special attention to the
matter.

The terrible tension in Boston,

the wealthy Bostonians will feel
safe. They hardly credited the
news that Cervera was bottled up
In Santiago de Cuba, and sent com.
mittees in special trains to Wash

harbors and patrol their outer
waters; and the cruiser San Fran

Wolcott, Captain General of the

A Timely Protest..

A strong and timely protest is made
the address OF the president of the
New York State Bankers Association
against the ease with which executive
clemency is obtained and the freedom
with which it is interposed in the case
OF fOrgers, swindlers, burglars and dis
honest bank officials. AS the result of
an inquiry made by him of the Federal
and State governments regarding the
number of criminals of this class par
dOned since January /, 1898. he learned
that the terms of imprisOnment of such
criminals had been greatly shortened
by the interp0sitiOn of the executive.
In the case of offenders tried in the
United States courts, it was found that
there were ffty-nine pardons in the
period covered, with the result that the
average period Of imprisonment actu-
ally served was but 81 per cent. of the
average sentence, there being, it will
be recOllected, no federal law of COM
mutation. Executive clemency thus
wiped out 40 per cent. of the penalty
imposed by the court. In some of the
large central-Western states the great
est leniency seems to have been ex.
tended, the average period served be-
ing less than one-third of that impos.
ed. The president said with truth that
there is no justification for this. The
GRIM 2 sls in question are often indi-
viduals of rare accomplishments and
ability who make preying upon honest
industry a profession. They are GER
tainly entitled to no sympathy, but
rather the reverse. Undue leniency
in dealing with them puts a premium
upon dishonesty.

Population Conditions In Haw ali.

Population Conditions In Haw ali.
The Sandwich Islands have been
the home OF considerable number
Of American families for a long
time. The grandchildren Of the
American missionaries who trans
formed the islands are now mature
men and women. They send their
children to an excellent American
college at Honolulu that has been
in existence for many years, al
though 1t is the custom for young
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. To obtain al
least part Of their educational
training in this country. Our race
exhibits no sign Of deterioration in
those Islands. The men of the sec.
end generation have shown grea,
ability, and the young men OF the
third generation are worthy Of
their American ancestry. 1t is true
Of course, that the native Hawaii
ans and the Chinese and Japanese
agricultural labOrers constitute the
bulk Of the population. But the in.
fuences that have shaped institu
tions and given type to the progress
and civilization Of the islands have
been distinctively American. There
are by far more people OF negro
blood than Of white in South Caro-
tina; but to say that South Caro-
II IA is not an Anglo-Saxon commu
uity in tho Strictest sense is to PLAY
with mere verbal fallacies. The
welfare OF all races in the Sandwich
Islands requires thatrtlheysh should
be under ,!NT iITic control. 1t is sheer
LnQnsnse to talk Of obtaining the
consent of the entire population to
il one means to include
the great body of coolie, yellow
skinned labOrers who are there,
not as domiciled families, but as
indentured visitors, working on the
five-year-cOntract plan, with the
prospect of either voluntary or in
voluntary return to their own
homes at the end of the later period.
These laborers have been much
better of under President Dole's
government than in their own
countries. If they have not been
allowed to participate in the ad-
ministrat!on Of Hawaii, where they
are only sojourners, it is enough to
reply that they do not, in fact, par
ticipate when at home in the gov
ernments of China or Japan. AS to
the Hawaiian natives, they are
under the present Hawaiian con-
stitution-accOrded as much politk
cal privilege as they are capable OF
exercising. Their rights will be far
better assured under American
oversight than they could possibly
be under the government of corrupt
and half-barbarOus monarchs OF
their own race, easily swayed by
scheming adventures. Moreover,
the race is dying ofY.-FrOm 'The
