schoaeld Against Expansion.

Milwaukee, Nov. 1.-Governor SEQ
field has written a letter to the Mill
waukee Journal on the Philippine ques-
tion in which he says it would be dan
gerous to the republic to keep the Phil
ippines. The governor writes:
'.While the question of the disposition
to be made of the Philippines is politi-
cal in the highest sense 1t has not be-
come a party issue and l believe is a
question which is to be settled IN the
near future. / take it that the issue is
not really one of expansion, so-called,
and it is only obscured by the talk OF
or anti-imperialism.
at is essentially a public question
and one which should be widely dis
cussed. And let me say that the free
discussion of it by republican, what
ever side he may take, in no sense IN
wolves disloyalty to the administration.
Every man of intelligence in the coun-
try. / believe, is with the president IN
his efforts to suppress the insurrection,
but what disposition is to be made OF
the new territory and the people VINO
will become dependent upon US is
louestion to be settled by congress, and
congress should express the Will of the
people,
Leaving aside the danger which
would threaten US on the side of Wig
orous cultivation of the military spirit
and stimulated desire for acquisition.
/ do not believe this country can afford
to assume 50 enormous responsibility
1--WE may talk splendidly of the
brotherhood of man, but before we ex-
| tend that principle we must conserve
1.-The existence of man. Whatever is to
be done by US in the Philippines or
elsewhere can only be accomplished
while the integrity of our own national
existence is intact.
"whether we would be justified on
other grounds in permanently taking
control of the Philippines, If the ques-
ton of our own preservation were not
Involved I will not undertake to say,
but we certainly are not justified in do
ing 1t If thereby our own safety is
placed in jeopardy"

TRIBUTE TO Upton
Surprising Demonstration on Oc-5
casion of Departure of the British
Yachtsman This Morning.


New York, Nov. 1.-Sir Thomas Lip
ton sailed for home today. On the way
from his hotel to the pier he received a
surprising tribute of esteem. Az his
carriage passed along the streets peo-
pie, lined upon the sidewalks, cheered
him and rushed out to shake hands
with him. The evidences of esteem
were not confined to any class. Finan-
ciers, merchants, brokers, market men,
'longshoremen and street sweepers
were alike enthusiastic in their demon
strations and nearly pulled him out of
his carriage as they eagerly grasped
his hand, to the right and left. At the
pier he was informed that a loving cup
was being prepared to be forwarded to
him Christmas time. On board the
steamer committee of his American
guests during the yacht races pre-
sented him with a handsome loving
cup Both on the pier and on the
steamer he made responses expressive
of his surprise and delight at the recep-
ton accorded him and declared he
would treasure the loving cups much
more sacredly than he would have
treasured the Americas cup which he
came to win.

up this evening within the city limits

The express company refuses to tell
the amount of money taken. The sher-

Students of the Latin quarter are
leaving in small groups for the Trans
yaal to aid the Beers as they once
aided the Greeks. The Irish and Dutch
residents of Paris have organized re-
lief fund to send money and arms to
the Beers If the latter can reach the
coast before the English reinforce
ments arrive.
1t is believed now in France that the
war may have the same surprises for
England as were met with in the
American revolution. And it is also ar
gued that Europe, which is usually
cowardly, now that it sees the resist
ance offered by the little republic, may
come to it's aid by practical interven-
ton, as well as profiting by the English
embarrassment to settle several vexed
Questions.
Hjalmar Reitz. son of the secretary

have been formed for the purpose of

the company has no knowledge of any

THE CHINESE CASES.

The decision of the Treasury de-
partment, under the advice of the At
torney General, in the Chinese cases,
is an excellent instance of doing right
and being just when laws are obscure,
and can fairly be interpreted in differ
ent ways. In the haste of drawing the
annexation act, obscure language was
used. This language has been con
strued so as to prevent an outrage
upon the Chinese, and avoid a breach
of faith by our government. While the
Treasury department sustains Chief
Justice Judd's conclusions, it does no.
follow his reasoning closely. At the
same time its own reasoning does not
seem TO have any greater force.

HARD TINES.
Chinese and Japanese Leaving "A
Coast Town

\ man who left Honolulu some time
ago to seek his fortune in the States
writes discouragingly from Los Angeles
concerning the chances OF a working
man in that city.
Butchers get 81 a week and girls and
men work in lunch rooms for 81 per
week. Chinese and Japs are leaving as
they cannot work as cheaply as 4 white
man. BARRIERS get from S. TO Sl2 a
week. There are a great many 5-ceT.
barber shops which sell three tickets
for 10 cents. There are also hundreds
of stores and dwellings TO rent.
But living is quite cheap. They sell
thirty-siX loaves OF bread for 81 and
throw an extra one in for cash. The
writer of the letter enclosed a price list
of one of the restaurants. One can get
there '22 5-cent meals" for 81. and a -
cent meal means hot cakes with mush
and coffee. or ice cream and cake. or
one of many other dishes. For ten
cents one may get a beef steak with
bread, butter, hot cakes and coffee. The
writer concludes by saying that he
hasn't found any place that beats Ho-
nolulu.

STREET NAMES.

Several years ago, the Legislature
passed a law in these words:
Upon the corners of all streets in
Honolulu, Hilo, Wailullu and Lahaina,
the street names shall be placed in
conspicuous positions, at least three
and a half feet above the street grade"
The Minister of the Interior was re-
quired by the law to provide these
street names signs
The need of these signs has been
argent for several years. Visitors have
frequently been annoyed and embar-
raised because they could not distin-
gIish the streets. Many have been
forced to the expense of using carri-
ages in order TO be directed by hack
men. Even residents have. often been
delayed in searching for streets, with
which they were not familiar In fact,
the want Of street direction has been
an unjustifiable annoyance for some
years. The minister of the Interior,
for some reason, has permitted this
general annoyance to exist, without
any reasonable excuse for it. If he
HAD been called upon personally to re-
ply to all the proper inquiries Of OFF,
GERS and soldiers for street direction,
during the last year, his time would
have been filled in making replies.
1T is now reported that an effort will
be made to put up these names. If
il is tt be done, the signs should be
designed SO as not to disfgure the
streets. There are several ways of con-
structing them. Tt is quite probable
that some Of the readers Of the Adver-
tiser could make valuable suggestions
on the subject

NEW PROCESS
BLUE FLAME OIL STOVE

y sort OF dread may prevail among
housewives that perhaps these stoves
might explode. but We can honestly say
that they are perfectly safe in every
home. To endorse our statement Just
have a talk with any insurance agent:
he will tell you at once that he would
rather insure \ home where these
stoves are used than Issue 4 policy on
a home where different stoves are used.
You wonder why the Blue Flame
stove should be better than any other.
Wen tell you. In this country the mat
ter OF fuel Is 4 very large stem OF ex-
pense. As you have turned over a
new leaf since the New Year and IN
tend economizing where you never
thought OF before. you may begin on
your coal and wood. II Is n positive
fact that the BLUE FLAME" uses
only about ons-half the quantity of fuel
any other stove docs. Another great
advantage Is that there Is no smoke or
smell.
These stoves are placed on rollers
and are so light they can be easily
moved about. We have them in two
sizes. one with two burners with oven
attached and the other with three
burners with oven. CThe price OF these
stoves is SIC. ss2.5O and ss5.OOl. We
can't tell you all about them; the best
thing to do is to come and look nj
them.
We are selling the Celebrated
FISHER STEEL RANGE for wood and
coal at $500.
