MIR. SMITH DECLINES
He Refuses to Contribute Anything to
 Democratic Harmony.

About the the time the democrats of Arizona see a glimmer of light and be- gin to entertain a hope of getting out of the woods, somebody turns it off and they are left groping in darkness. Every day since the territorial demo- cratic convention assembled here has been one of mingled confidence and despair. Almost every day the breth- ern have been led to believe that either Smith or Wilson would withdraw, 1t didn't matter which. Both were con- ceded to be good men. The democratic party could be happy were the other dear charmer away"
 It may be said that hope of an ami cable settlement and the withdrawal of one or the other was not utterly aban- doned till yesterday. The day before Colonel Wilson had submitted an as- sortment of propositions for the prayer full consideration of Hon. Marcus A. Smith. As readers of The Republican know, they involved the withdrawal of both candidates and the selection of one by the two central committees.
 The Smith objection to that yesterday was very proper, for the reason that the Wilson central committee consists of forty-eight members, while there are only thirty-eight of the Smith commit tee.
 The Smith element wound plainly have no show in that kind of joint conference.
 But Colonel Wilson did not confine himself to this single unreasonable proposition. He suggested in the first place that it be left, if possible. to Sec retary Akers to decide who should be the candidate. In the event that the secretary might refuse to decide, then Colonel Wilson submitted plan which no kind of fault could be found with, the Tipping of a coin. That would settle 1t. An honest coin, unlike demo- cratic convention, can not have two heads. Either Colonel Wilson or MT. Smith would certainly be the sole nOmi- nee. Neither could possibly have any advantage of skill or chance in this kind of a political contest. provided, of course, an honest coin were used. One man can flip a coin just as well as an other. The practice of a thousand years would give no one an advantage over a man who had never seen coin. There is nothing so emblematic of pure and straightforward luck as the flip ping of a coin.
 But, as was hinted in The Republi- can yesterday, that he would do, MT. Smith has declined to accept either the

Will Introduce a Bill At Next Con gress for an Appropriation to Meet Expense in Unraveling the Following Difficulty:

HOW McKee's Cash Store can sell Arbuckle Coffee for 15c when others ask 200.
 WHY they are selling Battle Axe To- bacco at Ale when others are selling at soc.
 WHERE in thunder do they buy fine Plug Tobacco they can sell at 2Sc?
 WHEN are they going to stop selling Star Tobacco at 4Sc a pound?
 WHAT kind of pull have they got with the soap company that they can sell bars of Calla Lily BoraX and ' bars Laundry Soap for 25c?
 WHENCE comes those Little Gem Hams that they are giving away for 12c pound?
 WHICH is the man to make money faster-the one who pays cash or the one who buys on credit?
 When Murphy, Wilson and Smith are all elected we will stop these slaugh- tering prices, but now they go as bong as the goods last or till our inventory on October 15.

 "The police of the park squad de- clared again last night that MT. Work drove faster than the legal rate of speed when he had his pair of black mares and also when he was driving the single bay, and that he was warned a dozen times before any attempt was made to arrest him.
 MT. Works stable on West Fifty sixth street. near Seventh avenue, has been a show plate among hOrsemen for nearly two decades. It contains nothing but his road horses and their equip ment, the carriage and family horses being kept in a stable nearer to the dwelling house on North Madison square. The stable covers an entire city lot and has a light stone front, with sliding doors of polished oak. The harness racks and road wagons are kept at the entrance, beyond which is a double TOW of box stalls. Mr. Work has always from six to eight fast road sters standing ready for use.
 "In the two cummOdious stalls he kept for many years as pamp- cred pensioners his old-time road team, Edward and Dick Swiveller. Among the curiosities in the stable are sleigh weighing only thirty-five pounds and road wagon fixed out with pneumatic tires, said to have been the first used in this city. The use of the tires was an idea of P. Cooper Hewitt, MT Works son-in-law, who had a set fitted to wheels of the ordinary size and then presented the trap to MT. Work. The stable is perfect in every detail and cost a fortune to equip. Bath and sleeping and dining rooms make up a suite above the carriage floor"

Decoration Day in Honolulu was a
holiday. There was much of sadness
and mere of gladness in the ceremonies
of the day. For those who paid tribute
to the Nations dead and those who re-
called their own loved ones, now dust
beneath the sod, the day had a special
message and for these the occasion was
one of sorrow.
But to most of the people it was a
relaxation from the cares OF household
or business and a day for pleasure in
the open Not that there was aught Of
respect lacking to the memories Of
those gone before nor Of solemnity in
the observance of the day as one set
apart by the Government for the spe-
cial commemoration of those who had
fought for the flag and who now had
gone to their long rest.
Practically all business was suspend
ed at noon. The banks closed then and
the doors of most Of the commercial
houses were shut to trade at that hour
The streets downtown were crowded
all through the forenoon and until the
parade formed at half-past two o'clock
and began it's march to the Nuuanu
valley cemetery.

The parade was made up on King

Captain Parker deserves credit for his
clever management and by his efforts
and those of the rank and file of the
police department, an unobstructed
way was given the column for forma-
ton and marching. Marshal of the
Parade Fisher had arranged all details
in good style.
The order of the parade was as fol-

The Trusts.


This year the Democrats have placed
the free coinage and tariff issues n
cold storage, as it is not good time
to use them, and have swung over to
the trust issue. In the eighties the
original trusts were organized, with
trustees to handle the stock and di-
vide the profits. Cleveland was presi-
dent from 1885 to 1889, and while
the Democrats had control of the lower
house of congress they appointed a
committee to investigate the trusts
The committee consumed six months
time and finally reported that nearly
every industry was controlled by a
trust. 1t did not file its report until
two days before Cleveland's term ex-
pired, and then reported disagree
ment in the committee and submitted
what they had found out to the care

crosses.

to commit his party to an antitrust
stand. Trusts had grown so thick un-
der Cleveland's administration that
something had to be done. The first

Harrison was inaugurated was the

The Tariff Question.

The Republican reciprocity laws
made business lively, but the Demo
Gratis repealed them, which was follow
ed by declining trade The Democrats
passed tariff law for revenue only in
1898. Such law never produced so
little disaster as from 1898 to 1895, for
when laws were previously enacted
the times were much harder. This re-
suit is not due to coincidence, but to
the fact that this school of political
science is false.
You Democrats had bad luck in 1898.
Your promised prosperity did not
come. You had during every previous
campaign been harping on tariff for
r evenue only, and you had to have a
new issue in 1896, as your tariff issue
was no longer attractive. 1t can be
said of the Democratic leaders that
they expend more anxiety in discover
ing an issue on which to win than a
policy on which the country can be
safely conducted after victory. ZAP
plause The Democrats in 1896 had
no issue with which to win the cam
paign, and in their search saw that
the Populists had an issue. The Demo
Gratis held their convention first and
managed to get that issue, which was
free silver. The Populists followed
the issue into the Democratic party
and the last heard of were still there.
You Populists, when you were Repub-
licans, used to stand up for the flag
when it was being shot at Now you
have to stand for man who wants
the flag hauled down because it is
being shot at. In the words of your
