THAT VICIOUS REPORT AGAIN.

the conduct of the House committee
in making charges against Superin-
tendent Rowell, because it gave NO
hearing, produced no charges, and
gave no fair play to its helpless an
tagonist. We made only one issue.
One thing at a time is good business.
We will now go a step further, and
show what sort of white heather the
men are, who signed the report. They,
and their hackers are saying: wait
until you get at the merits of the case,
and you will see what a wretch that
Rowell is"
We will now take up the seventh
charge made by the committee. 1t is
short and to the point. The charge is:
Appearance of prejudice and
favoritism shown by the Super
intendant of Public Works in the
award of the contract for build
ing the Central Fire Station of
Honolulu.
Here it is, simple and definite
charge.
Now what is the fact? It is just
this:
The contract for building the
Central Fire Station, was award
ed under the express direct
ion of the Executive Council, and
not by the superintendent of
Public Works.
Neither Loebenstein. or his Iowly
but vicious disciples Paris, Pogue, or
McCandless, asked Rowell, or anyone
else the question, who awarded the
contract. If they had, they would
have discovered at once that the Ex-
ecutive Council took the matter in
hand, and made the award. In neg
lecting to ask this very simple ques-
ton these men seemed to be playing
with loaded" dice; to have organized
for conviction, even on the merits of
the case.
This is Loebenstein's leadership.
One recalls the moralizing of the
French naturalist: "Ah! there is the
mosquito He is born, becomes a
father and a grandfather, and dies,
all within one hour, what noble and
eventful career!"
Such is the history of Loebenstein's
Legislative career.
In this failure to allow the Superin
tendent to defend himself, and again,
in the report charging him with the
awarding of a contract that the EX-
ecutive Council awarded, Represen-
tative Gear, owner of a newspaper"
seems to cordially support this mos
quito statesman. We had believed
that Mr.. Gear was fair and square
man, and was not sore, as some of his
brethren are. with the cutaneous
diseases of grievances" We beg par
don of him for installing his char
acter. We are all liable to make mis-
takes. Perhaps his admiration for
Loebenstein's great success in i'm
peaching the President some time ago,
has forced him into a fervent wor-
ship of this statesman of an hour. Z"
''If rat be the god, what must the
priest be?' asks the traveller among
the Digger Indians.
AS for the endorsement of these
charges against missionary" Rowell,
by the two missionaries" Paris and
Pogue, it only shows that the climate
must be making sad havoc with the
second generation of missionaries. 1t
is not the native Hawaiians, but the
haole Hawaiians who are reverting to
heathenism.
Representative Isenberg was wise
and considerate and fair, when he re-
fused to join in this malicious report.

VIM. ]. Bryan made speech in
Omaha on the 18th of this month, In
which he said that Dewey's guns had
destroyed the fleet at Manila, but they
cannot destroy that self evident truth
that Governments derive their just
powers, not from superior forces, but
from the consent of the governed" "
He warns the people against dreams
of the splendor of aggrandizement.
But whether the United States do
or do not retain the Philippines, it is
very probable that the government of
those islands will be reconstructed if
the Spanish retain them. The trou-
blesome question is, have the United
States the right to turn back an acre
of land, under any circumstances, to a
nation that has never exhibited the
slightest sense of justice in dealing
with weaker races.

NEWS FROM OVER THE STATE.

as train No. Z, which arrives here from
Eureka at S:25 a. m, was pulling out
of the station, Lewis Henroid, news
agent on the train, started to enter the
car, he missed the step with MS foot
and one end of the car struck him with
sufficient force to throw him off his
balance, ana he fell down between the
moving car and the platform which is
built close UP to the track. The front
trucks of the car had passed before
Henroid fell, and before the hind trucks
reached him, he had succeeded in get
ting himself off the rail and as near
the ground and platform as he could
possibly, but could not get out of reach
of the hind truck, which as it came
along, struck him in the head, fractur-
ing the skull and INJECTING wound
perhaps two and a half inches in length.
The truck also struck his arm and leg,
bruising them very seriously, but not
breaking any bones in either. 1t was
most fortunate that Mr.. Henroid at
tempted to board the next to the rear
car, for if a long train had been passing
he would more than likely been dragged
underneath the wheels. The train,
which was moving out slowly, had gone
about 100 yards before the Irainmen
discovered the accident Mr.. Henroid
was picked up by some passengers in
state of Inconsistencies, but in a few
moments recovered his sensibilities.
DR.. Allen, the Rio Grande physician,
was called and dressed Mr. Henroid's
wounds. There was a slight conclusion
of the brain but it is thought that the
injured man will recover. Mr.. Henroid
was made as comfortable as possible,
and at HIP a. m. was sent to the hos
pital at Salt Lake on train No. 1.

vail in these districts. There are here
opportunities to study the relation of soils
to moisture and crop production which
are not offered in any other section of the
United States. An Investigation of these
conditions will undoubtedly throw light
upon many problems upon which the de-
velopment of agricultural methods will
depend, and these problems can be studied
best under the peculiar conditions of soil
and climate prevailing in the west.
AT Humboldt the relative humidity from
May to September is about 36 per cent,
and in July and August 81 per cent How
it is possible, under the conditions of ex-
tremely low rainfall and this low rela-
tive humidity, for the soil to retain moist
ure within u to is inches of the surface
for months after the rains are over?
