FIELD FOR A SPECIAL AGENT.

While the officials of the Re.
public of Hawaii are contem plat
ing sending special agents hither
and yon it would seem proper that
thsy take up the proposition of
sending special agent to Europe
to investigate the labor marke,
and set to rights the channels
through which Hawaii has sought
or may seek laborers. just at the
present time the necessity for an
Hawaiian encyclopedia seems to
be in greater demand in Italy and
Portugal than in the United
States.
1t will be a fortunate day for
Hawaii when the government goes
out of the labor business, but
while it is in the business the Off
Gals might we'll occupy their time
in more active operations than
granting permits for additional
Japanese laborers. The planters
do not appear to have met with en-
easy road in obtaining the proper.
ton of European lsborers which
the law demands. Now let the
Government officials put their
shoulder to the wheel and see
what they can accomplish by their
own personal efforts. Let them al
80 demonstrate with what measure
of honesty they have demanded
that the proportion of European
or American labor shall be main
t,ined.
There is no one better fitted to
take up this task than Minister
Damon. He is held in high es-
TEEN by the Portuguese of Ha-
wall and he has done not a little
10 securing immigrants from TIA
ly. He has personally advocated,
in season and out, drawing more
heavily from the European farm
ers aud less from japan and Chi
ma. The government would make
no mistake if, for once in it's
career, it allowed Minister Damon
to have full swing in the labor
business. What he could accom-
plish is an unknown factor, but it
can be put down as a foregone
conclusion, if he cannot set the
Italian market to rights no one
can

Perhaps the Council Of State

When President Dole was asked
for copy of Wray Taylor's re-
port on the Italian laborers, he
stated that he did not have time
to find it. The public is interested
in this report, but the public will

A BRlDEGROoM'S SENTENCE.
Michael McESeever Must First serve
Time in Jail.

Michael McKeeyer, a young man who has
been in the employ of the Belt Railroad
Company, was arraigned in the Criminal
Court yesterday on the charge Of assault
and battery with intent to kill Judge Al
ford heard the story of Walter Jones, the
prosecuting witness, and then gave Nc
keever four months sentence in the
workhouse. Jones appeared TO want to
shield McKeever as much as possible, and in
a private talk he had with the court, asked
that the accused man be dealt with as len
iently as possible A scar several inches in
length on Jones's face had much to do with
the sentence.
AcKeever and Jones had some trouble
over drinks in a saloon on Sunday morning.
Dec. II. McKeever drew a knife and cut
Jones in several places. The prosecuting
witness admitted that he struck his assail-
ant with chair during the fight. Nc
keever was formerly employed by the Big
fireman. He was indicted at the last ses-
sion of the grand jury and few days after
els arrest he was married. His bride was
present yesterday when the court sentenced
MIN. The marriage took place on Jan. 10,
in the county clerks office, McKeever being
brought over from the Jail by a deputy
sheriff. The bride met him at the cerk's
office and after the ceremony they sep
arated again. McKeever's attorney said
for several months, and after his arrest
they decided to get married at once, since
there was considerable uncertainty as to the
result Of McKeever's trial.

CORN EXHIBIT At PARIS.
Indiana and other States VIII BE
Asked to Make Appropriations.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Jan. B.-The Legis-
lature Will be asked to make liberal appro-
priation to aid in the making of a corn ex-
hibit at the Paris exposition. Col Clark L.
Carr Of Galesburg president, and Il. W.
Snow. Of Chicago secretary of the American
Maize Propaganda. are here comforting with
members on the subject. The purpose of
this organization is to bring to the atten-
ton OF the world the value of Indian corn
as food for man. The propaganda has OBJ
tanned satisfactory concessions from Com
missioner PECK and will have a restaurant
and corn kitchen in the United States build
ing al Paris. OF the appropriation by Con-
gress of 500 coo only $1,000 is set apart for
all Of the agricultural products of the coun-
try, including horticulture and the beVer-
ages. Il has been found that the proper
ton OF this amount that can be set apart
for Indian corn VIII be very meager. and
the maize propaganda therefore has decided
TO ask aid ia the way of appropriations from
the great corn producing States Of Indiana
Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska. 1t
has not been decided how much each State
will be asked 10 contribute. Colonel Carr
was greatly impressed when he went to
Copenhagen as United States minister by
the fact that there WAS not a pound of In
dian corn meal IA all Scandinavia. Through
the efforts put forth bs him and Colonel
Murphy commissioner of the Department
of Agriculture, the consumption of Indian
corn meal has been SO extended that 5OOO
bushels were exported TO Denmark last
year.
