THE STRAIGHT TICKET.

The Star printed a specimen ballot
yesterday and if every voter will mark
his ballot as The Star suggested he
will be sure of having the right man
for Congress, the best men for the SEN
ate, and the ablest men for Represen-
tatives. In point of fact it will be the
straight Republican ticket and Whose
votes that is voting for the good of the
Territory. 1t will pay the voter to
study the specimen ballots and mark
them exactly in the way suggested, and
the more Democrats and Independents
who will follow The Stars advice the
better.
Seriously a good many, who have been
coquetting with the parties above men
toned, are coming into the Republican
ranks, and will vote the straight Repu-
blican ticket. This is especially the
case with Hawaiians. There is a stady
influx of these into the Republican
ranks. Since the split in the Independ-
ent party the Hawaiians have focked
to the Republicans and it is the most
popular party by long odds.
II Ilubl also ne acknowledged tndI
the Democrats are gaining somewhat in
strength, though not as much as the
Republicans. 1t is the Independents
who are losing ground every day. The
split between the Hui Aloha Alma and
the Hui Kalaiaina has proved a death
blow. There is not the slightest chance
of the breach being healed, and Will
coxs prospects of staggering down
Pennsylvania avenue are dwindling
away to nothingness.
The man who will represent the Ter
ritory in Congress will be Sam Parker.
All classes are uniting upon that gem
tleman as the proper man for the place,
and his popularity advances by strides
from day to day, November 9Th, will
see him elected as delegate and Ha-
wall will obtain what she needs. Look
out for the Republican victory which is
surely coming. and don't fail to get into
the band wagon,

Fumigating ships for the purpose Of

1t is announced that Rev. Charles NJ.
Sheldon, author of I'm His Steps," is
now engaged in the preparation Of a
new work, which is to be brought out
at first in serial form by firm of Bos-
ton publishers. Mr.. Sheldon will re-
main in Boston until the manuscript is
finished, and the first numbers of the
new book have appeared, which will
probably be about November l. The
story deals with the life of a young
girl who comes to Boston and enters
service in private family. 1t is stated
that Mr.. Sheldon's retainers for serial
and book rights were close on 10000.
The Rev. Charles makes his books pay
certainly.

There are several men wandering
about the city without any visible
means of support. There was a witness
in a case in the police court yesterday
who stated that he had done no work
for three months, but he declined to
state how he had managed to live dur
ing that time. He certainly did not look
by any means starved, but was plump
as a partridge, The inference is that
the gentleman had lived by his wits,
which means that he lived upon other
people. Men of this class should be
rounded up, and given a term for vag-
rancy

SIBERIAN EDUCATION.

The United States Commercial agent
at Vladivostock has collected data with

Wants to Know the Programme.
II was appalled, at the nature and style
of Lord Salisbury's speech. We have
now 10000 men In South Africa, yet we
are with difficulty holding our own The
attitude of foreign nations is described
as friendly. But that does not strike me
as being so amicable as the world would
imply. 1 deem 1t necessary to know what
the government il going to do. Lord
Salisbury said the cause of our CASUAL
ties was the smallness of the secret fund
and the British constitution. But what
is the governments duty? Some form
of compulsory service must be intro
duced to meet the growing exigencies OF
the empire. and am sure the nation
viii not shrink from either that or any
other sacrifice to preserve the empires
predominance. That we should not
shrink from sending away vast masses
of troops, situated as we are In the CEN
ter of universe by no means friendly
to lis, without having a hint from the
government of the military measures 1t
proposes taking to face the disaster we
have met and the sacrifices we have
made Is one OF the most extraordinary
features of the British constitution
agree with Lord Salisbury that the coun-
try can carry this thing through In spite
of all the impediments of men and meth
DDS which have shackled 1t In the past,
but venture to say 1t will have to be
inspired by n loftier tone and true patriots
ism than shown by the premier"
Government should Have Known.
Lord Kimberley urged that the govern
ment ought to have been aware Of the
importing Of arms into the Transvaal, and
ought to have informed the Transvaal that
unless it desisted 1t must result In Great
Britain sending large force to South At
RIGA. He could not believe the government
was so ignorant of the preparations OF
the Transvaal and they could not divest
themselves Of the responsibilities.
Balfour of Burleish's speech.
Baron Balfour of Burleigh said that the
Jameson raid had closed the mouth Of the
government and prevented 1t from pro-
testing against arming the Transvaal. But,
he added. the government must have
known ornaments were accommodating to
an extent unjustifed by fears of another
raid, and 1t was the duty OF the govern
ment to communicate on the subject with
the Boer government. but as the first step
it ought to severely punish the raiders.

If the government appealed to it it would
not have supported the government In any

would do nothing to prevent the govern
ment from carrying on the war to sue

state for war, followed. He said he was
prepared to make statement at future

compsnied by George Fred VIII
Iisms, AItgeld and Luts-sympathy
for Fiiipinos and Boers Expressed

BOSTON, Jan. 50--Hon. w. J. Bryan was
the central figure Of an unusual demonstra-
tion In this city tonight After participant
ing In several events OF lesser Importance
during the day Mr.. Bryan addressed an
immense mass meeting In Mechanics hall
building, containing seating capacity
greater than any other in Boston. 1t Is es-
timated that there were over 10000 persons
In the hall, hundreds Of whom remained
standing throughout the evening. The
speakers included Mr.. Bryan, ex-Gov. Alt
geld, Congressman Lentz, Of Ohio. ana
George Fred Williams.
The hall was decorated with bunting, ma
tional colors and state shields. At the
head OF the immense stage stood large
canvas painting Of Mr.. Bryan labeled THE
peoples choice"
Prominent Democrats from several OF the
New England states occupied seats In the
rear Of the chairman.
The first speaker, Hon. George Fred
Williams was received with three cheers
and tiger. During his address he ex-
pressed sympathy with the Beers, a sem
timent that was vociferously applauded.
The next speaker, ex-Gov. Altgeld. was
accorded hearty reception by the great
audience. He declared that the United
States purchased the Philippines from Spain
and entered upon the task OF subJugating
the rightful owners OF the islands because
Englnad desired It, Speaking OF the South
African war, he said 1t was the first time
the government Of the United States had
failed to extend sympathy to people
fighting for its liberty.
The third speaker. Congressman Lentz. of
Ohio. was warmly received He said that
Abe Lincoln was not quoted by the Re-
publican party today, and that the Bryan
Democrats were celebrating the anniver-
sary of Lincolns birth.
While Mr.. Lentz was speaking, Mr.. Bryan
entered the hall In company with Robert
r. Pain. He was greeted by the vast au-
dience rising to its feet and cheering for
several minutes. At the conclusion of Mr..
Lentz' address, at 1910 o'clock, Mr. Bryan
was introduced. He was unable to make
himself heard for some time. The first
part Of his remarks were addressed to Re-
publicans, who were informed that the
party had changed its principles since the
days Of Lincoln. Later he took up the
subject of Imperialism, the gold standard
and trusts, assailing each along the lines
already indicated in his speeches. Mr..
Bryan's speech was frequently interrupted
by applause.
