In the month of November, proverb-
tally gloomy month, when diphtheria,
scarlet fever and zymotic diseases car
ry off numbers, the annual death rate
of thirty-three of the largest towns in
England was III per thousand. The
highest death rate was in Preston,
where it stood at 24.2 per thousand,
and the lowest SIS per thousand, in
Croydon. In London the death rate
was 16.5 per thousand. When we com
pare this with our 31.SS per thousand
for the month of January, it is about
time that some investigation into the
health of certain portions of the town
were made. The rate among the Ash
atics is not abnormal, being 25.O9. The
rate among Europeans, Americans
and all other nationalities not AsiatiC
nor Hawaiian, is certainly quite small
for it was but 1874, far less than the
rate in London, and in such cities as
Liverpool, Newcastle-uponTy ana
Northampton, but the Hawaiian
5S.44 per thousand certainly is ahead
of any British statistics.

A BRITISH VIEW.

There have been some pertinent re-
marks made as to American consular
work by Robert P. Yates, formerly the
chairman of the Birmingham Chamber
of Commerce and now member of the
Warwickshire county council. The re-
marks appeared in the form of an in
terview in London paper, Commerce
Mr.. Yates commenced by speaking
of the great displacement of British
goods caused by nearly prohibitive du-
ties placed by foreign powers, point
ing out that during the past six years
the United States has increased it's ex-
ports thirty-four millions, Holland fif-
ty-eight millions Germany forty-two
millions, Great Britain one million.
He then stated that he considered
the American consuls make themselves
more useful to their country than the
British do to theirs, and used the fol-
lowing words:
1.-THE United States consul, to begin
with, has few traditions. This is a
great advantage He has also, in my
experience, a far keener eye to indus
trial and commercial affairs and a bet
ter capacity for details, technical and
otherwise. In, 1 believe, sixty towns
and cities of the British isles there is
an American consulate. About half
of these are in charge of American cit
liens, the others being English; but
these latter are mostly at the unim-
portant places. The thirty Americans

The question of registry of vessels is
becoming a serious matter and no one
seems to be thoroughly posted upon the
point in controversy. If Congress
would only settle affairs for us there
would be an end to much unpleasant
uncertainty and some considerable
friction. But upon all matters Con-
gress is far too important
body to be hurried. The days have pass
ed when this one or another could
bring pressure to bear on the govern
ment. One can't bring pressure to bear
on Uncle Sam. 1t is no doubt very
good lesson to learn to many who were
accustomed to depend upon bold bluff
with our authorities, and they have
been bluffed time and time again.

The Saddles made by the
old natives of the Hawaiian
Islands were considered the
best and most comfortable
ever made. They have been
eagerly sought after and there
are very few now in existence
1t is claimed that there are
only two old natives now liv-
ing who have the ability to
make a perfectly comfortable
saddle tree. One of these is
on the island of Hawaii and
the other on Kauai. Unfor-
tunately they are too far adj
vanced in years to do much
work.
For a long time we have
been making efforts to find a
saddle that would nearly COM
pare with the old Hawaiian
Saddle, and we have struck it

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY I, 1899.

The heavy rain of last night and this
morning has been of some advantage
to our parched pastures, but what we
need is several days of steady down
pour, and then a period of daily show
ers. The condition of the pasture land
at the other side of the Island is really
very serious, and one of the largest
owners has suffered considerable loss
in his cattle. Not only has he had to
contend with the drought, but the horn
fly has been giving a great deal of
trouble, this is one of the blessings
that we have received from abroad.

TURN ON THE X-RAYS.

This is an age Of light In utter
defiance Of the messy old theories,
we now photograph the coins inside
of a pOcketbook and the bones in

intelligence shines upon certain anti
quated notions in medicine. The in
tellectual X-Rays have shown the
fallacy of the idea that sick people
had no alternative but to take nau.
seating doses of cod liver oil-or die.

JOHN MOORE SENTENCED.
Last Chapter In Hut chlnson's Bloody
Tragedy Written.

Tragedy Written.
HUTCHINSON, Kan, May s.-The
closing scene in the Moore murder
case came Saturday evening. when
John Moore was brought before Judge
NJ. P. Simpson to receive his sentence
for the murder of his five children.
The largest crowd was present that
was ever in the courtroom. Mrs.
Moore waited between the Jail and
courthouse until her husband was
brought out. Then she threw her
arms around him, and chung to him
unit! put aside Ivy force. She followed
into the courtroom, and her means
and sobs could not be quoted. When
asked if he had anything to say, Moore
replied: mo, sir" Judge Simpson
gave the usual form of sentence for
murder in the first degree-that the
prisoner be confined at Lansing for
one year and until the death warrant
be signed by the chief executive, and
then be hanged by the neck until dead.
The wife followed Moore back to the
Jail and, crouching down upon the
porch which surrounds the building,
watched her husband through the
bars until she was forced by the Off
GERS to go away. All that Moore said
to his wife at parting was: Don't
cry. Mat; take as good care Of your
self as you can"
Moore will be taken to Lansing i'm

"A CRIME AGAINST CHRIST"

Cardinal Gibbons So Characteristics .
Recent New York Marriage.
BALTIMORE, Md, May s.-Cardinal
Gibbons, in the course of his sermon
at the cathedral, on the unity of the
church, characterized the recent di-
vorce and marriage of a society lady
in New York as crime against Christ
His eminence said:
Consider the pontiff in relation to
King Henry VIII, who asked for tho
pope's sanction to a divorce so that he
might marry again. The pope refused
to give it. saying:
Whom God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder'. Only few
days ago the country was shocked at
a woman in high life who was di.
vorced at o'clock and married again
almost before the ink was dry on the
divorce papers. This is a crime
against the laws of Jesus Christ.
1.-THE church is one in its teachings.
1t is the same in France, England,
Italy, San Francisco on the Pacific,
and New York on the Atlantic. All
proclaim the same doctrine, one faith,
one hope, one baptism and one Lord.
God grant that you may not be con.
tented to be united to the church, but
to the Spirit. God grant that all may
be living branches and bear fruit"

DRESDEN, Ont, May s.-The local
branch of the Canadian Bank of Com
merce was robbed this morning of an
amount estimated at $4,000 The
charwoman who takes care of the
bank Offices discovered the robbery.
The front doors of the bank had been
pried open. Two holes were bored in
the vault, charge of nitro-glycerine
was exploded and then the inner safe
was attacked in a similar manner. The
second door apparently yielded as
quickly as the first, and the burglars
gathered up the currency and fled.
The manager of the bank says they
did not get more than g., 900. The po-
lice report that the amount of cur
rency stolen was s1O,OOO and those
who are in a position to know say
this amount is nearly correct.

Hope for Settlement Of St Clair County

OscEoLA, Mo-, May 8.-Delegates to
the number of IT'S, representing every
township in the county, met at Osceo-
la Saturday to consider the feasibility
of compromising St. Clair county,

luton was adopted by the
small margin of ten votes
favoring a settlement of their bonded
indebtedness for S231, ZOO, the face
value of the outstanding bonds The
full amount now due, including prin-
cipal and interest, amounts to about
$1,000, 900.
One delegate from each township
was appointed to confer with the
holders of the bonds and present to
them action of the convention. Judge
Sam Peedan, who was not present,
sent a message to the convention from
the wilds of Bear creek, where
he is in hiding, declaring his bitter
opposition to a compromise of any
sort. The judges also declared that
they would refuse to submit the gu es-
ton to the people unless the fed eral
officers would clear out and cease try.
ing to effect their capture.
According to the views of prominent
citizens, it is doubtful if the PROPOSE.
ton would CARRY, even if submitted &c

I'm the first place. the volunteer

in defiance of the constitution. They

war is over and still they are detained
in those far-off islands.
Under the constitution the Colo

fed in laying down their arms where

be court-martialed and punished

Porto Ricans Want Uncle San to Lse
Down Bars and Reduce Army
WASHINGTON, May a-Senors ]. Ju-
lilo Henna and Manuel Zeno Gambia,
commissioners from Porto Rico to the
United States, have presented a sec
ond memorial to the President, reit-
Grating the prayers of their first petit
ton.
They ask the following concessions:
First-The cessation of military gov
eminent and the esta blishment Of civ
il rule in the island
Second-The establishment of abso-
Lutte free trade between Porto Rico
and the United States.
Third-The reduction of American
troops and the enlistment of Porto
Ricans.
Fourth-The rights of American cit
liens in the island
On the subject of military control
the commissioners make the point
that 1.-THE subject of reforming tho
Porto Rican system does not properly
belong to the army officers who now
control Porto Rico, or to the war de-
partment, but to the Porto Rico PEG.
pie themselves.
In contending for free trade rela-
tions with the United States they as.
sert that economically speaking the
people were better Off under Spanish
rule than under the present military
rule of the United States, and add
that Porto Rico has done nothing to
deserve to be forbidden admission to
the American markets, or to be
starved to death through high duties
under the tariff promulg ated by the
war department..
They also assert that neither Cuba
nor Porto Rico will ever be able to
make step in the road cf true pro-
gress and happiness as long as Gus
tom house stands upon their soil.''

SPOKANE, Wash, May s.-Mines of
Shoshone county, Idaho, that propose
to operate during the reign of martial
law may do SO only on condition that
they do not employ members of the
Cour dAlene Miners union.
This is the martial law as laid down
by General Merriam and Attorney
General Hayes of Idaho. At meet
ing of the mine owners in this city,
Mr.. Hayes presented this mandate
The owners cheerfully promised to
obey.
1--WE are going to clean up the Cour
d'Alene, said Attorney General Hayes
prior to his departure for Boise.
81 have seen some of the mine own
ers and they have been informed by
the proper authorities that they can
not employ anyone connected with q
criminal organization in this county.
The Miners union in Shoshone county
contains many desperadoes and criini-
nails who have, under the protection
of the union, perpetrated crimes and
outrages. Twice has it been neces-
sary because of these men and their
organization to put the county under
martial law. We want to stop that
sort of thing.
1.-The owners living in Spokane al
low the union to run things and when
their property is threatened or riots
occur as result they wire to the gov
ernor of Idaho to send troops to pro-
tect their property. Some of these

Wardner for the purpose OF blowing
up the Bunker Hill and Sullivan
mines.
''They allowed them to 60 out of
the mines to destroy the property Of
another and then to return to work.
1--WE have undertaken as large a job
of criminal prosecution as ever CON-
menced in the history of the country.
Trying between 700 and 500 men is a
task of enormous magnitude. We pro-
pose to push the prosecution vigorous
ly, however. Prisoners will be tried
in both the state and federal courts.
Murder and arson arc some of the
charges the state will bring against
these men, and we hope to inflict the
extreme penalty.
