Mr.. Mckinley is to be the supreme
ruler of Porto Rico and the Philip

the grace Of congress.

president has the entire disposition Of

this council, in addition to its absO-

The constitution says: Congress
shall guarantee to the several states a
republican form Of government" Was
congress empowered to establish any
other form Of government, anywhere,
at any time? No! This is the limit
of its power. 1t says again: Taxes, /"
over these states, shall be uniform"
This view being correct, every member
Of congress who voted for the Porto
Rican tariff, and the president who
signed it, have violated their oath Of
office-'tO support the constitution Of
the United States and obey the laws
and are subject to impeachment and
punishment for such violation Of law.

In the heat Of the discussion Of the
Kentucky situation, some time ago,
some said of the killing of GoebeI: 1T
was serving him right; he ought to be
killed" What do they think now, as
it develops that it was a deliberate
plot of assassination? 1t is noticeable
that the republican papers are as
whist as mice and the caIumniators of
the lamented GoebeI have hid their
heads.

LABOR BUREAU.
Work Done First Week
of Existence.
Seventy Odd From Quarantine Camps
Already Provided for--Ser-
wants on Hand.

The quarantine relief labor bureau
has now been in active operation a lit
tie over a week, and during that time
has secured employment for seventy
odd Japanese and Chinese. OF this
number there were six carpenters,
eight cooks, five yardmen, five walters,
two stonemasons, four tailors and over
forty day laborers. Some twenty mem
bers of the camp have secured employ
ment through their own efforts and
seven japanese are registered as hav-
ing returned to Japan.
One can thus realize what sub
stantial benefit the labor bureau has
been to these homeless people, who
would otherwise have been turned
loose on the community to the serious
detriment of themselves and the citi-
zens of Oahu. The future usefulness of
this bureau will depend in very
| large measure upon the hearty coop
! Grafton of all citizens desiring help of
any kind. No matter what kind OF
help you need, the bureau desires to
have the order placed on its books,
and promises that every effort will be
made to conscientiously fill it.
1t should be borne in mind this is
not a money-making institution; it's
sole purpose being to assist the thou
sands of unfortunate men and women
of Chinatown to again find homes and
employment, and thus relieve the con-
gestion that would surely follow were
these people left solely to their own
resources. Much patience will be re-
quired both on the part of those in
charge of affairs at the camp and by
citizens who leave orders to be filled
Thus far employers have exercised
this patience, and It has greatly aided
the management of the bureau in just
ly dealing with these poor unfortu
mates.
The following is a list of labor nov
in camp and available IN filling orders
Japanese-Thirty carpenters, on,
cook, one yardboy, one tailor, two as
sistants to sugar mill engineers, ant
one nurse.
Chinese-One bookkeeper, one car
penter, three shoemakers, six tailor
and dressmakers, two watchmakers
one sugar-boiler, one machine-oiler
four laundrymen, two poimakers, an
about twenty common laborers.
] Hawaiians-Ten wharfhands.
On Monday Kakaako detention cam
will discharge over 700 Japanese, Chi
! nese and Hawaiians, several hundre
of whom will probably find a home i
Relief Camp 1. These people will rep
resent all trades and callings, an
there should be little difficulty in fill
ing all orders that may come in.
The bureau is also pleased to an
nounce that it has on hand three pro
fessional actors, and any one desirin
this labor should file their orders i'm
mediately, as the supply is limited.
In all cases where employees are sen
out and misunderstanding or dissatis
faction arises, the management wi
greatly appreciate a notification fro1
the employer, that investigation ma
be had

President Board of Health

Manager Pain stated at about 7
o'clock last night, that up to that time
he had not received the above letter
from the Board of Health and that he
had heard nothing about the matter,
He thought it probable that the letter
was still in the Post Office, as he had
not been down town at any time dur
ing the day. Questioned as to when
the cars would be put on the line again,
Mr.. Pain said that as soon as he re-
celved the letter he would set men to
work clearing the rails and would also
round up the stock which is now on the
pastures at Diamond Head. He con-
sldered it likely that this work could
not sc done before noon, but that he
would start the cars as soon as he
could get the stock to the stables

The tram cars will be allowed to run
on their usual routes again. The Board
of Health has sent a communication
to Manager Pain informing him that
upon the report of it's special agent re-
garding the sanitary condition of the
cars, it is safe to allow traffic to re-
sumo. The following is a copy of the
letter:
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1900-02-05

Mr.. w. H. Pain, Manager Hawaiian
Tramways Company.
Dear Sir:-The special agent of the
Board of Health reports that after in
spection of the cars of the Hawaiian
1ramways Company, he considers their
sanitary condition such, that it is safe
to allow resumption of traffic. AS this
removes the cause which led the Board
to cause temporary suspension of the
running of the cars, and as the Board
has already notified the company that
when the cars had been put in sani-
tary condition they might resume traf-
fic, l have the honor to inform you,
that traffic may be resumed whenever
the company sees fit.
Very sincerely yours.

Allegation That GEN. Hazen Won

Wichita, Kan, april 12.Mrs. Mil
dred Hazen Dewey rnag .Aave.. to7come
ito Wichita shortly to straighten out
the title of some lots owned by her
former husband, General w. B. Hazen.
Because such lots We're won in poker
game here in early days by General Ha-
zen, little attention was paid to secnr-
ing good titles and now when Mrs.
Dewey wants to sell them, she has
found that she cannot because the title
is imperfect.
In 1871 General Hazen played poker
with Dave Bancroft, real estate dealer.
Sitting behind four kings, Hazen bluff
ed the real estate man into putting up
all he had, including fifty town lots.
After that General Hazen dealt extern
lively in Wichita property. For $4,000
he bought half interest in the town
with William Griffenstein, the founder.
This. interest he later transferred by
power of an attorney.

dent yesterday that the republican
state organization is growing impa-
tient under the repeated reports that
it is seeking to get rid OF Governor
Roosevelt by having him nominated
for vice president. A prominent Off

would be nominated for vice president
rested entirely in the governors
hands.
The republican who said this added
that if Governor Roosevelt was sincere
in his desire to escape the nomination
for vice president he would not go to

told this repeatedly, yet he desires to
go as u delegates, and is now on the
