The Advertisers Cuckoo Bird OF the
evening makes the statement that Re-
publican delegates in one of the pre-
cincts were elected through the assist
ance of Turk and Lewis. The facts
are that Mr.. Lewis was defeated in the
precinct in which he was candidate.
In the Second precinct Mr.. Lewis was
one Of the workers for the ticket that
was also defeated. The Advertisers
Cuckoo can confirm this by mere ref
erence to Gilman, Andrews, Wilson,
Wilcox and other party workers. H.,
as is directly intimated, the assistance
OF Turk and Lewis is not desirable, 1t
is nevertheless fact that those whom
the Star refers to as the best people"
accepted their support

FRAMING THE PLATFORM.

Delegates to the District and Terri
torial conventions having been elected,
every Republican of the Islands should
turn to the all important task Of the
Territorial gathering-that of framing
the party platform. Outside of this tho
work of the convention is practically
settled. The nomination of Hon. SAM
uel Parker as the Republican candi-
date for delegate to Congress is as
sured. A majority of the delegates
have been instructed and all that re-
mains is to go through the form OF
placing Mr.. Parker in nomination.
The first declaration of party prin-
ciple for the first Republican campaign
Of the Territory will unquestionably
overshadow all other events in its i'm
portant bearing on party success.
Municipal government, the Chinatown
claims and labor are unquestionably
the all absorbing local topics on which
the declarations of the party will be
watched with particular interest. If
the party desires to poll the popular
vote its declarations must be direct
and forceful upon these particular
points Any attempt to evade the
questions will be ruinous TO party can
dldates whatever the individual popu-
larity OF candidates placed on the tick
ct may be.
The history Of the Republican party
throughout the Nation has ever been
marked by progressive, fearless action,
meetin gissues as they arise without
equivocation and with thoughtful re-
gard for general business interests as
well as carefully protecting the rights
of the individual citizen. This is a
record which Republicans Of Hawaii
should be proud to uphold, record
which, II upheld will command the re-
spect Of all citizens and assure the cleo
ton Of Republican Legislature to
acceptably carry out the important
work that will be brought before it.

them out by flank movement, accord
ing to some newspaper correspondents.
This will b ethe last stand Of the
Transvaal Beers. who viii not retreat
further northward owing to the hos;i-
lity OF the natives.
II is curious that General Roberts
recent dispatches contain no reference
to fighting in the Orange River colony,
which has been serious. Ladybrand,
with its garrison Of $50 men. has been
besieged by a strong force OF Beers
and has made desperate and probably
successful resistance. According to i
Reuters telegram yesterday the siege
had been raised by the Beers.

The Advertisers desire for harmony
is evidenced by studied misrepresor-
tation of district delegates and person
al attacks on Mr.. Sewall. This serves
only to create bitter antagonisms and
destroy the possibilities Of united ac-
ton with honest members of the So
called minority wing who unite with
the majority in condemning the dc
tatorial policy that failed in the Fourth
District. Whatever lack of harmony
exists can be credited to the Advertiser
and the dictator.

Custom Mill at Sparta . Success.

The custom s.stamp mill at Sparta,
owned by George Chapman 4 Co., Is
successfully operating and Is proving to be
a valuable acquisition to the camp, say
those who are feeling its direct benefits.
Mine owners are enereeticalIy at work on
their prospects, furnishing ore to the mill
and there Is supply on hand that insures
the continuous working Of the mill. Hon.
Jos. Wright, who Is one Of the owners Of
the Union and Grey Eagle mines, Is in
the city with batch Of bullion, the result
Of a run Of ore which netted $40 to the
ton, besides concentrates that 60 about 4
per cent. Mr.. Wright says Mr.. Chapman
has inaugurated an enterprise that will be
Of incalculaple benefit to the district. Mum.
bers Of prospects will be made to pay
whose owners IN the absence Of mill
would have to let their properties remain
idle. Prospects will be developed into
mines by means Of the owners being en-.
abled to pay their way as they 60 by hav.
ing their ores worked at the custom mill,
and altogether the entire camp will be put
on a more substantial basis than ever be.

IRRIGATION PROJECT.
Over $4,000 Acres of Idaho
Land to be Reclaimed.

News Of the organization Of the greatest
irrigation project ever launched in this
state, II not In the northwest, has leaked
out. Moreover, the projectors Of the un.
dertaking propose to do what has always
been supposed to be impossible-they will
take water from the Snake river some
miles above Shoshone Falls and irrigate
2oo,o 900 acres Of the wonderfully fertile
land that stretches away on the plateau,
1000 feet above the tumbling river. The
reclamation Is to be undertaken under the
Carey act and the legislation enacted to
carry that law into effect, and the segre.
cation Of the land has already been made
at the HALEY land office.
The amount Of land segregated Is 7I7,.
900 acres on the south side Of the river and
$1,000 acres on the north side. Besides,
there Is 1900 acres Of school land GOV.
cred on the south side and 1000 acres on
the north side. As far as possible, worth.
less land has been eliminated from the
segregation, but some OF that taken Is not
firstclasS.
There Is, however, fully oo,ooo acres
Of as fine land as Is found In the west, all
OF which can be watered.
The project has been under way for
several months under the direction OF
State Engineer Ross, who has made all
the surveys and plats to avoid the errors
and discrepancies that have caused so
much trouble with other Carey act prof.
ects In this state.
The canal on the south side will be IS
miles long and that on the north side two
miles. The river will be raised ,8 feet.
The entir. work will cost 81, 100000.

The Brazos mine, in Pleasant Valley dis.

Of producing mines In Baker county. On
Thursday afternoon the Io.stamps Of the
new mill just completed on the property
began dropping. All the machinery
worked smooth and there was not hitch
anywhere. The plant has been running
ever since being started and no property
In Baker county has better prospect for
successful operation. Mr.. Albert Geiser,
who Is the manager Of the property, said
yesterday that the Brazos was the equal
to any mine In these gold fields. tits we'll
developed for economical working and
there was no end Of ore In sight. Two
men can knock down all the ore the mill
can handle. At this time there are only
i've men employed-two In the mill, a cat.
man and two miners. The mill can re.
duce about 40 tons OF ore per day, the ore
being very soft. Gold Is fast accummu.

Brazos Is exceedingly promising

KILL THEMSELVES.

Westward the star OF prohibition, etc. -
as we have remarked previously.
Some Of the boosyites of some western
towns were pretty nearly scared to death
a week ago. on false report that spot
ters had been around and gathered evi-
dence. Time was when spoilers would
not have scared them, because they
knew that officers would not prosecute,
or if they did jurors would not convict.
But the man who does not hesitate to
break the law by selling booze is usually
a man who does not hesitate to break
other laws, and almost invariably is will
ing TO add gambling and other repre-
hensible acts to his saloon business.
And thus he kills himself. There are a
large number of people who care little if
a saloon or blind-pig is kept quietly and
does not obtrude itself into the public
eye; but when the whiskey people take
charge of local politics, when they keep
gambling and worse resorts. very few
people are in their favor, and public
sentiment is against them, and when
public sentiment favors the enforcement
of the law, the law is enforced. Mandan
has just passed through the experience,
and it is freely prophesied that inside of
two years Bismarck will also be dry
town. And there is one more thing, no
town that we have yet heard OF in this
state, after once experiencing dry
spell. has desired to go back to the blind
pigs again.
