An Irate Professor

Professor Brigham, custodian Of
the Bishop Museum, aud known for
his great love for anything Hawai-
ian, was in pilikia yesterday.
While attending to weiRhty busi-
ness down town-probably measur-
ing the size OF his last months sal
airy drawn from the Hawaiian insti-
tuition which gives him living-he
left his horse united in the street.
One OF Marshal Browns argus
eyed police officers espied the horse
and escorted horse and buggy to
the Station House outside of which
the horse was tied up. Shortly after,
the Professor came along looking
for his valuable rig and, refusing to
listen to the officer, he proceeded to
cut the rope to take the horse away.
The Professor was then arrested,
searched in the receiving station,
where he was obliged to surrender
his watch, money and knife, aud
locked up.
The Marshal, when informed Of
the incident, allowed him to go on
his own recognizsnce, aud the clerk
of the receiving station rendered
him his property. The Professor
pccketed the money and the watch,
but contemptuously flung the knife
on the floor, saying that he wouldn't
have it after it had been touched
by "kanaka."
His remarks we're not received
very kindly by the officers, and the
Professor disappeared among very
pointed comm ents.
Another instance of he love for
the Hawaiiaus entertained by this
employee of the Bishop estate.

The Star recently called attention
to the necessity of having public
lavatories at the wharves and other
places, where many people gather
aud do business. We fully agree
with our contemporary and hope
that the Marshal will urge the Min
ister of Interior to supply the long
felt want without delay. The Mar
shal stated in the District Court
some days ago, that if the Minister
does not cause the necessary build
ings to be erected, at least on the
most frequented wharves, it would
be his policy to instruct the police
10 arrest any one, OF necessity, COM
mitting nuisance on the wharves,
and thereby cause a public howl
that probably would have the need
ed effect on the Minister and result
in proper lavatories being estab-
lished.

that the bank of Hawaii, through

To.morrow is the day which
Minister Cooper had set aside as
Lafayette day, on which teachers of
public schools were expected to
make a collection of nickels and
dimes from the school children to
swell the fund which is to be used
for the erection OF monument to
Lafayette. Notices appeared in the
"by authority" columns Of the Off
cial organs, but the scheme met no
favor nor support either from the
press, the teachers or the public.
Nothing has been heard lately about
the idiotic scheme of the minister
OF education, and we hope he has
submitted to public sentiment and
abandoned the proposed idea OF
forcing the public teachers to black.
mail the school children, for a
purpose in which they are in nc
way concerned or interested. Ii
some teacher should spring the
matter on their schools tomorrow
aud pass the hat around, we hope
that the children will have been in
structed by their parents and guard
ians to refuse contributing to an un
worthy object solicited for in an i'm
proper way.

BY NATHAN COLE

In response to the request of The Herald
for an expression of opinion regarding the
great questions which are agitating the
people of this state during the present
campaign, beg leave to submit the fol-
lowing answers:
From a national standpoint the vital is
sues of this campaign are the money ques-
ton, the monopoly question, the problem Of
just ard equitable taxation, the considera-
tion of the scandals growing out of the con-
duct of the late war; the doctrine of i'm
perialism or territorial expansion, the in
fiuence of corporate power In national,
state and municipal elections. public own
ership and the initiative ard referendum.
The silver question must be recognized as
a live issue when the Democratic, Popu-
list and Silver Republican state conven-
tions in more than three-fourths of the
states of this Union reaffirm the doctrine
of 16 to /.

cites such universal interest then every

but it is such only by reason Of the limited
power of the state to act on the question.
The silver question is eliminated as an
issue urtil the campaign of 1900 by rea-
son of the fact that it is practically I'M
possible to pass a free coinage measure
while Mr.. Mckinley is president. But the
money questiu1 is ar issue so far as the
congressional and legislative campaign is
concerned to the extent that Republican n
victory at this election would affect finan-
cial legisla ton. 1t IS fair to presume tha.
In the event of the Republicans securing
control of the United States senate, they
would pass the Gage bill, prepared by their
secretary of the treasury. AS all know,
he was at the time of his appointment a
leading banker of Chicago. HIS bill turns
over to the bankers Of the country the ex-
elusive right to exercise the sovereign
power of issuing paper money. 1t also pro-
vides fer retiring all greenbacks and treas
ury notes issued by the government and re
placing them with interest bearing bonds
A more inquitous measure, vesting spec
ial privilege in q favored few, was never
framed. Lack If space prevents my en-
larg!ng upon this topic.
But, as stated above, I regard the rail-
road question as the chief factor in this
campa ign.
The Southern Pacific company footed its
whistles upon Mr.. Cages arrival from Sac.
ramento after the Republican cocvent,c n
had gone through the formal,ty of giving
him the nomination fer governor And tina t
same Southern Pacific whistle has beer toot-
ing ever since for Mr.. Gage IN tbs ducet
tones of their eloquent attorney, Mr..
Barnes of San Francisco. Mr. Gage fol-
lowed up this good beginning by compla.s-
antly appointing well-knoWn railroad pull
ticians on his executive committee to lead
his campa gn. When demonstrated with
by the honest men Of his own party he
refused to dtspiace them, but hastened 10
San Francisco for advice and assistance In
his extremity After c5nsulting with "the
powers that be- probably located not far
from the yellow building mentio led by Mr.
Estee, he decided TO break with the les ding
organ OF his party in Southern California
rather than go back en- his chosen allies the

Mr.. Gage has won some surprising YER
diets at the bar, but on this occasion he has 8
to deal with some three huadred thousand
untrammeled voters. instead of twelve men.
My firm belief that the allied parties VIII
be succe sSful in their contest with the allied
moropoles is founded upon my faith IN the
insight and wisdom of the people 1 be-
leve that not only every member Of the
allied parties will rally to the support Of
that peerless champion Of the people s
cause, James G. Mcguire, but also large
number of Independent Republicans, who
think more Of principle than they do Of
party. What greater service can a loyal
Republican, who has tile welfare Of his
party at heart 90 his party than shake it
loose from the clutches Of the octopus now

Conditions and not the platform adopted
by the conventions have made the vital IS
sue IN this campaign.
Assoon as the work of the convention was
completed and the political forces Of the
state marshaled In battle array, 1t was evil
dent that all the allied moncpolies, with
the Southern Pacific company as :heir
banner bearer, were fighting for the Repub-
lican ticket.
The Southern Pacific company for the
first time, l believe, in California politics
has thrown off all disguise and come openly
into the political arena to fight for SUI
premacy. All Indications point 10 the fact
that it has captured tho state organiza-
ton Of the Republican party in California
this year. These conditions make the vital
issue of the campaign the question::
Shall the Southern Pacific company Of

lican party, with its divine ambitions
and immortal leaders, has gone over
the auction block route into the Golfers
of corporate greed and scramble for
| place. Upon the ruins Of the grand old
party's auspicious beginning and mag
| rificent career stands the altar of the
golden calf Of the party today.
American citizenship with us today
means the right to think and act for
ourselves; to vote as our interest die
tates; to vote for men and measures
instead Of party. We have learned that
no slave is so universally despised as a
party slave; that no slave can be an
American citizen in the full sense Of
that term. To properly perform the du-
ties of American citizenship we must
have absolute freedom of thought and
action. Those who denounce US as
traitors and bribe takers for attempt
ing to exercise these rights are not as
l loyal to their country as its interests
demand.
I If we would be treated as American
citizens we must regard ourselves as
such and act accordingly. We cannot
advance our interest by sitting on the
stool of "do nothing" and broodng over
the past. The past with its sad memories
must be buried beneath the rising sun
of expanding opportunities. The grave
in which the war and slavery sleep
should never be reopened.. The bloody
shirt lies buried beneath our sacred dead
in the trenches at Ell Caney. He that
lwou,d desecrate the graves Of those he
roes in search Of that grewsome relic
of unfortunate memories is an enemy
of our flag.

This question might be succinctly an
swered by saying: They have been
reading-they are thinking. But for
the benefit of your readers I shall at
tempt to answer 1t to some extent In
detail.
We are beginning to regard ourselves
as American citizens and no longer
sculllons Of the Republican party. This
k tho primary cause. For thirty years
or more American citizenship, from our
standpoint, was to faithfully serve the
Republican party, leaving the party to
do our thinking. This was to some ex-
tent excusable when, under the leader

the railroad party.
g The venal secretary of war In holding
up the San Pedro work at the behest of his
master Coils p Hur tington. is prlma facie
evidence that the railroad question Is IN all
important factor in this campaign. Los
Angeles would today be the most prosper
Gus county in the state If the nation only
had a secretary Of war who had the man
hood to carry out the law passed by con-
gress. He, however, prefers to defy that
august body and the Republican admins

ern California go hungry rather than in
cur the antagonism of the railroad masters
who put him in power and continue to keep
him there notwithstanding the harbor and
war scandals.
