Rep. Achi reported as follows for the
special committee to whom had been
referred Question IA, relating to the
Mutual Telephone Co.
The charter of incorporation of the
Mutul Telephone Co. has the follow
ing clause: Provided always that the
erection of the necessary poles and
fixtures of the corporations in the
towns of the Kingdom shall be made
with due regard to the public con-
yenience, so far as repects this posi-
ton, and in this respect the said cor
poration shall be subject to the super
vision of the Ministers and further
provided that the wires used by the
corporation shall, if practicable, be
carried under ground within limits of
the town of Honolulu Said charter
was issued or granted August 18th,
1888.
I'VE also find that there are many
posts along King street at Kapalama
and Waikiki, which ought to be NOV
ed back so as to be proper distance
from the line of the Tramways Co.
"The committee is therefore of the
opinion that the whole matter of put
ting the posts along the streets of Ho-
nolulu, is in the hands of the Minis
ter of the Interior We therefore re-
commend that the above questions
may be referred to the Minister of the
Interior with instructions to act in the
premises"

against the passage of the bill. 'The

The Government should not enter in

a niger in the fence somewhere in

cutive have said: TT may do some
good. 1t will do no harm The bill
will be so much waste paper when ii
is passed"

bill referring to private owners who
are holders of large tracts of lands
The Government can take these lands
and divide them up for small hold
ers. This will result in the develop
ment of the country.

Words That Burn.

The following utterances Of one
bf the noblest OF men, seems pro-
phetic, in view of the fact that our
country is now in the power OF the
money power, and cry is lately
gone up from congress, that this
power had stihed, or was endeayor-
Ing to stif1e patriotism, and, our
country was humiliated, and dare
not lift a hand to aid the patriotic
long suffering Cubans;
II see time coming fraught
with more danger than any war we
haye yet passed through; a time
when the money power will dom
mate over patriotism, and gradual
ly contracting our currency; force
Us into a fractricidal war more hor-
fible than any yet past. The flu
ture dangers to the republic lie in
the increased greed of the money
power. Let our future law makers
beware of the foothold that power
bhall endeavor to gain upon our
statute books.
/ see in the near future a crisis
arising that unnerves me and
causes me to tremble for the safety
Of my country. AS a result of the
war, corporations have been en-
throned and al era Of corruption
In high places will follow, while
the money power of the country
will ondeayor to prolong its reign
by working upon the prejudices OF
the people unit. all wealth has ag
gregated in a few hands and the re,
public is destoyed.-Ab Lin

The democrats are very modest,
as the recent utterances of state
chairman MCGEE show. He says:
''The democratic party in Idaho is
thoroughly united and satisfied
with its present condition. Har-
fnony prevails and our party is
stronger than ever before. We feel
assured that all true silver men CO.
operate with US in the future"
After this there is little doubt that
both the other elements of reform
In Idaho politics will rush in to
the cooperation business assisting
the democrats to hold the fat offices
while they, the allies, take their
pay in acquiring patriotism and
reflected glory from fighting under
democratic leaders. In other words
the democrats will cheerfully agree
to furnish the officers and office
holders if their allies will furnish
Che voters necessary to carry the
state for reform. For this venture
The chairman announces that his
party is thoroughly united.
Though the smallest party numer-
icly in the state the democrats are
swell satisfed'' to hold the offices
and feel assured" that all "true
silver" men will want to cooperate
With them in the matter.
