Mayor-elect Ames, of Minneapolis, yes
terday made his first official announce
ment of appointments, which are these:
Superintendent of Police-Col. Fred w.
Ames.
Mayors secretary-Tho R. Brown jr.
Private Secretary to the Mayor-E. E.
Wheelock.
The mayor has put his brother in
charge of the police work, and has prac-
tically combined the duties now perform I'd
by Miss Anna M. Kreidt and Desk Ser
geant E. E. Stevens, and put them into
| the hands of E. E. Wheelock, a steno-
grapher and a member of the Thirteenth
Minnesota regiment. Each of his secre-
taries will receive 81, 400 a year, and by
the abolition of one Office DR.. Ames says
he will save the city $500 a year Mr..
Brown the mayors secretary will have
general supervision of the office and his
purpose Is to simplify the routine work
of the mayor as far as possible. He will
be responsible to the mayor for the work
ings of the office. The private secretary.
Mr.. Wheelock, will be largely employed
with stenographic and correspondence
work.
Col. Ames, the new chief of police, was
| born in Minneapolis, July 5, 1858. He has
been employed in various commercial
lines, and was member of the Thir-
teenth Minnesota regiment and several
military organizations preceding it, start
ing in as q private and being mustered
out as colonel. He went with his
regiment to the Philippines and was made
chief OF police of Manila, when his regi-
ment was appointed to do provost duty
Thomas r. Brown has for six years
been connected with the Journal. He was
an indefatigable worker for DR.. Ames
prior to the nomination and during, the
campaign, and his appointment is con-
sidered in the nature of reward for his
services. He was born in Philadelphia
and came with his parents to this city in
1885. He spent year at Yale and also
year in the state university.

1t is a little singlar that two senatorial
possibilities should have two sons on the
floor of the house. Henry Knute Nelson
comes In from Elbow Lake, and William
Drew Washburn Jr. comes in from Min
neapolis. There was a story to the effect
that the Alexandria man opposed his
sons candidacy for the legislature, but
the best authority states that bis oppo-
sition was confined to pleading with the
younger Nelson to confine his energies
to a business, rather than political,
career.

fcations for the office. Mr.. Wilcox
has numerous good points in his
favor, but he is unfortunately ham,
pered by conditions which will make
it impossible for him to act as an
independent delegate to Washing
ton. We do not think, that any
thoughtful, conservative Hawaiian
can cast his vote for Wilcox, who as
delegate would be nonen,ity
and relegated to the obscurity in
Washington, enjoyed by Moreno.
Sam Parker is very popular among

self to any newspaper man as to the
situation in the Democratic camp.
There is only one Democratic party
here and no split will ever occur as
long as the people now in charge
are conducting the political affairs
OF the party, The third" wing re-
ferred to who wants Carter and

A prominent Independent said this
morning that his party had no oh.
lection whatsoever to "haoles" but
that they preferred 10 see seated in
the Legislature men who were ideu-
tilted with the Hawaisrs in 1893
and 1895, to men who turned the
Hawaiians down in 1913 and locked
them up in 90 Colonel Mccarthy,
Mr.. Coruwell, Mr.. j. o. Carter aud
Prince David happen to be men
who we're identified with the pa

did go to Hotel de Low in 95, and

ways with them, and il there is any
feeling against haoles, it is certainly
against those who downed us and
jailed us.

CzAR's RAGE
Is Astir And It Falls Upon the Royal
Head Of an Erring Aunt,


BERLIN, September 3-A serious
quarrel has broken out between the
Gear and his aunt, the Grand Ouch
ess OF Vladimir, which has had the
result OF causing her husband, the
Grand Duke, to tender the resigna-
ton Of his office as Commander of
the Metropolitan Military District
Of st. Petersburg and OF the Imperial
Guard.
The trouble, which has not only
set all Russian society by the ears,
but has also perturbed several
courts, including that OF E nperor
William, is due to a question Of
baccarat and roulette.
This ukase followed almost i'm
mediately the startling discovery
made by Nicholas that the chapter
of one OF the principal churches Of
the metropolis had pawned the
cnurch plate ana JeWeled icons to pay
gambling debts contracted at bac-
carat and roulette.
BY the army and clergy Tho EN-
peror's commands have been obeyed,
and baccarat has stopped at the
Yacht and other leading clubs.
But society has treated the impartial
edict with something very much
akin to dersion, and this is larg ely
owing to the attitude adopted by
the Grand Duchess Vladimir.
The latter is German Prin ,ess
by bi:th, and the only foreign wo-
man who has declined to change the
faith 10 which she was reared for

AMERICA AND TURKEY.

1t begins to look as though the
United States would secure some sub
stantial result from its demands upon
the Sultan for indemnity for the prop
erty OF missionaries destroyed by mobs.
Other nations may well look on in won
der, for while the Sultan is ALWAYS
ready to admit that indemnity is due,
after sufficient pressure has been
brought to bear on him. he is lavish

money. Mr.. Griscom, American Charge

that the Porte has undertaken to meet
all the engagements made with the
United States Minister regarding the
payment OF the claims on account Of
the destruction of mission property in
turkey. This in itself amounts to lit
tie; but the Porte issued an trade au-
thorizing the rebuilding of the de-
stroyed missions at Harpoot and Har-
sam, and the construction of an annex

garded as of far greater importance

a recognition OF the idea that Ameri.
can missionaries have the right to
build schools in Turkey and insures
them against what they regarded az Q
gradual but absolute exclusion from

the Sultan has offered to compensate
the American missionaries under the

s. M. Ballou is an honest man and
a lawyer. Mr.. Cecil Brown is a law
yer and an honest man. Evidently
both OF them feel that they were placed
In an unfavorable light by the events
OF Wednesday evening. Mr.. Ballou
the honest man knows that several
days before Wednesday last a bakers
dozen OF men secretly selected Clarence
Crabbe to call the meeting together:
that they decided that he was to nomt-
nate Cecil Brown as chairman; that
there were to be nine vice presidents.
OF whom Mr.. Ballou was to be one.
that the names of all were decided
upon; that the speakers were selected:
that a resolution was to be presented
giving Cecil Brown the sole power to
appoint a committee to organize the
Republican party of Hawaii including
the basis Of election and who should
vote and under what conditions.
This kind of secret work is ina
chine" work. This kind of a program
is "a slate" When the program fails

guage of American politics and such
was the language used by the Advert
ser in describing what happened

Thereupon the secret conclave organ
declares that the Advertiser charges
are refuted. Standing up straw men
and knocking them over Is an ancient
method Of warfare, but this illustration
of it's working is more transparent than
usual.
The Advertiser has no quarrel with
Mr.. Ballou and Mr.. Brown. 1t seeks
that which We hope they seek-the
good of the party and clean, above
board politics. Secret conclaves and
cut-and-dried programs will not be
countenanced by the great majority of
Honolulu Republicans, and the sooner
those who have started In to do" pol
tics on those lines quit, and work in
the open, the better for them and for
the party.
No amount of abuse or special plead

sHRUNK ToTHfs LITTLE MrA>,,F.

People who camp out in California
mountains are sometimes awakened by
/ bloodcurdling chorus of howls and
yelps. The wrangling, wolfiish voices
rise and fall, breaking out now in one
place and then, as it seems, in all places
at once. Visions of ring of wild beasts
about the lonely spot bring the drowsy
campers to their feet, and Selling their
guns and running cut into the open,
they are amazed to find that all the
noise is being made by one hungry and
lonesome coyote, who is sitting on his
NANCY launches on a nearby hill and
dismally threatening the moon.
There is a parallel between the ex-
pectation and the result in the case of
the coyote and in that of the Sewall
faction Republicans of Honolulu. For
weeks and months we have been hear
ing the howls of the Sewall party from
what seemed to be every point of the
compass 1t looked as If there were
thousands of them. Timid persons who
trusted to their ears rather than to
their eyes whispered that If the Sewall-
ties ever descended on the camp of the
old-line Republicans there would be not
even a grease spot left to tell the tale
or wish-bone to be carried away in
the carpetbags.
Well, all the Sewallites and some OF
the Republicans finally came into con-
tact and were counted, with most as
tonishing results. The Sewallites were
in the proportion Of one to seven. Men
who numbered the machine push" wa
terfront heelers and all, could not find
more than one hundred all told-not SO
many electors as the Honolulu Prohi-
bitionists might muster on occasion.
On every vote taken as a whole the
Sewallites were simply overwhelmed
like beach clans in tidal wave.
1t was an astonishing climax for a
hui that used to talk about setting
aside everybody but themselves in the
Republican politics Of these Islands,
and it calls for new political designa-
ton. The bosses cannot be termed the
Republican party, or even presentable
| faction. Why not call them the Job
Chaser's Hui, Ltd.," and get the new
Grief Publishing Company to endow
them with a prospectus and code OF
