MoTHERLEss TRUSTS.

Sugar King Havemeyer Does Not Account
For Them In Free Trade Countries.
Free traders have rolled under their
tongues as a toothful morsel the utter
ance of Sugar King Havemeyer to the
effect that Protection is the mother
of all trusts" He ultimately denied
that his sugar trust was the offspring
of protection, and so contradicted him
self. An interested public would like
to know who is the mother of not
only the sugar trust but also the
trusts in free trade countries. Free
trade England has many trusts, one
engineering combine having capital
of $56,O0O,00O. Without protection,
England has her trusts in steel and
iron rails, petroleum, lead pipe, fish,
metal utensils, antimony, nickel, mer-
curry, thread salt, alkali, rubber ties,
etc, etc. In Germany, in the year
1897, there were organized $50 combi-
nations similar to the American trusts.
Russia and France have many trusts,
including rolling mill trusts, iron
trusts, petroleum, sugar, chemicals
and many other kinds of trusts. Bel
GUM, which, next to England, is the
greatest free trade country in the
rrorld is literally overrun with trusts.
Thus we find the principal protective
policy countries with trusts, and also
the principal free trade countries with
trusts. Free trade and protection are
Numerically opposed to each other in
principle, and yet trusts exist side by
side in eacn. If free trade were de-
structive of trusts, there would be
none in free trade England and Bel
GUM Free trade would remove trusts
from our midst in about the same way
that an ounce of laudanum poured
down the throat would remove boi
from the back of the neck, by killing
not only the boil but also the man who
was troubled with it, The Republican
party can be trusted to prescribe by
legislation a remedy for the trust evil,
without destroying the prosperity of
the wage Garner in doing it.

THE ONLY RELIEF.
A Little Story with an Interesting suG-
gsstion In 1t.

The railroads, for the first time in
a good many years, are about in
position where they can dictate both
terms and conditions. The shippers
are wholly now at the mercy of the
roads, and can only get their stuff
moved when the roads can find time to
do it. This is true with every road
that runs through any extent of ter
ritory, and virtually true of a good
many of the smaller roads that have
rich feeders. To be sure there are a
few of the small lines that have car
to lend to the other roads now and
then, but they are the exceptions that
prove the rule.
For the most part all of the rail-
roads in the country have every pound
of freight they can handle. They have
been sending the stuff that must be
shipped Immediately and leaving the
other material until such times as they
can get cars and power to handle It,.
Some of the shippers that have been
put off from time to time are now get
ting anxious and are pushing the roads
pretty hard to move the goods. There
is not a day passes that one of the
freight men of one of the big railroads
is not besieged with requests for cars
of some kind with which to handle a
consignment of goods. hTe shippers
are willing to take any kind of cars,
on almost any kind of conditions, so
that they get their goods delivered.
t,.,tfhfullu hn cold fhat
piece of rolling stock on the roads is
in use, and that every bit of power is
being taxed to its utmost to haul the
loads that are put behind them One
shipment is scarcely moved, and the
season for one commodity is scarcely
over, before another one comes on to
demand the attention of the RAIDS. The
lines have been taxed t the limit dur
ing the summer and now that the fall
trade is not Ear away there is very
little hope for better conditions.
The freight men say that unless
there is a vast change in the fall trade
from what there has been in the sum-
mer business that the roads will not
be able to cope with the volume OF it.
They point to the fact that the faclli-
ties of the roads are taxed now, when
1t should be the light season, and ask
what they are going to do when q
buster, liVelieT season comes on.
An interesting incident was going
the rounds yesterday that shows tho
trend of affairs. One of the largest
coal shipping firms in the city called
up one of the traffic men and asked:
How am going to get cars to shiI
my coal in?"
Vote for Bryan is the only way tina
l know" was the reply. - Cleveland

THE STARS BRIGHT LADS MAKE
MERRY.
Have Great Dinner, Their Pictures
Taken, and Ride Round Town in
Four-in-Hands.

Nobody enjoyed Thanksgiving Day
more thoroughly or made more of it
than the Stars newsboys. They were
promptly on hand at the muster at
noon, and marched in a shouting,
gleeful column of twos to Loves bak-
cry where dinner was served. 1t was
bountiful dinner one that satiated
even youthful appetite After dinner
the boys marched back to the Star
office singing "a Hot Time" Here
they were photographed by H. r..
Hanna, and dozen or more amateurs.
At o'clock they took buses decor
ated with banners and placards. Each
boy was provided with a full toned
fish horn, and he blew it with never
tiring lungs for the rest of the after
noon. Up one street and down an
other, all over town, the boys rode,
sixty of them, blowing their horns and
shouting till everyone in town must
certainly have known that they were
out and having a good time. Wher-
| ever they went crowds gathered tC
witness and enjoy the good time they
were having. The buses took then
to the football game at Makiki and
later 10 the game at Punahou. Al
both places their horns and the boys
themselves added noise and pictures
queness to the games. From the foot
ball field the boys returned in trium
phal and noisy procession to the Stal
office, where after three cheers for th'
Star and everyone who had helped
make the day enjoyable for them
they scattered to their homes.
The Evening Bulletin also entertain
ed number of the newsboys yester
day with a swim and native feast a
Long Branch, and bus ride to tt,
football games and about town.

BA1 IALIONS OF n. G. H. ENGAGE
EACH OTHER.
Brilliant Military Specialty-Rocky
Hill Could Not be Taken-Work of
First Battalion.

Yesterdays battle was by long odds
the most interesting military event
Honolulu has witnessed in year. 1t
lasted nearly two hours, and every de-
tail was thrilling. The first battalion
won the contest on actual military
points. The judges were: Colonel
Wagner, Assistant Adjutant-G GENERAL
U. S. A.; Colonel Scott and Major Nc
Coy, Forty-fourth U. S. V. Infantry.
The best work of the day was done
by Companies A and and a battalion
of H under Lieutenant Rowell. One
of the worst errors was in the other
platoon of II on the hill in making no
attempt at cover. A couple of good
sharpshooters in the attacking force
could have picked off every man from
the commander down without suffer-
ing.
1t was decided by the judges that
Rocky hill could not be taken without
artillery. In strategy, keeping under
cover and following the ordinary rules
of battle the first battalion had the
advantage from the very beginning of
the fight. Following was the decision
of the judges:
THE flank attack along the stone
fence would have succeeded in driv-
ing the defenders back to their main
position. Only part of the defensive
force would, however, have been COM
promised and defenders would have
been in position to resist stubbornIy.
| Owing to the strength of the de-
fensive position and the losses already
encountered by the offensive, the lat
ter did not have the numerical odds
necessary to carry the position and
the attack would have failed"
Immediately after the battle two
battalions of the Forty-fourth Infan-
try arrived on the field. At the re-
quest of Colonel Scott, Company F, N.
G. H., gave them an exhibition drill.
Though on bad ground and with men
tired by the mornings work. the
movements were splendidly executed
and ELECTED rounds of applause from
the regulars. Shortly after noon the
battalions marched back to the cars
and reached town about l o'clock.

WITH THE AUSTRALIA.
The Alameda and Mariposa to Go on
Her Run.

The steamships Australia, Mariposa
and Alameda are to be put on the Ho-
nolulu-San Francisco run as soon as
the ,nree new Spreckels steamships
are ready for service. They will make
regular trips as the Australia does
now, going to no other ports than this
and San Francisco. A timetable of
three vessels month will be arrang-
ed.
The question of who the captains
of the new vessels are to be is being
discussed with much interest in ship
ping circles. Captains Hayward and
Houdlette are to have two of the new
steamers. the latter making probably
only one trip in the Mariposa, which
he takes on arriving in San Francisco
next week. 1t is stated that Captain
Dowdell of the Zealandia is to be in
command of the Australia and he is
expected to bring her down here next
month, if his ship arrives in San Fran
cisco in time. Later he will probably
be given one of the new ships. First
Officer Lawless of the Australia will
probably be given one of the ships
now in service.
