sysTRACISE THEM.
Pro 'sssoS Eia Say, nst Magnatei

Should Not Be b nIzed ociaIIy.
81. LOUIS, Jan. l7.-CoIonel w. j.
Bryan and President Arthur Hadley Of
Yale university were interviewed dur
ing the day relative to the latter's pro-
posal to ostracise trust magnates. Both
are agreed ON the idea that social recog-
milton should be denied to any man en-
gagged in trust or other business enter
prise inimical to the public welfare and
that the public mind should be edu-
Gated to see those evils that exist in the
trust system. 49, zs.
President Hadley said in response to
question regarding remedy for some
of the bad effects of the trusts which
he suggested in speech at Denver:
"When people have clearly made up
their minds as to what are social evils
ostracism is favorable remedy"
Then he said by way Of explanation:
''But the trouble is the public mind
is not clearly made up. To my mind
many of the rs,s
Troubles Attributed to Trusts
are not cleared. This is where the pub
lie needs educating. The evils caused
by the trust should be pointed out and
when it is shown that man is engaged
in an unworthy enterprise people
should have the courage to deny him
public recognition. I believe the time
will come when they will do so. 1 do
not mean that every man belonging to
a trust should be cancelled from the
list of ones acquaintance. That is a
matter requiring the judgment of each
individual case"
Colonel Bryan was asked for his
views On the plan of Professor Hadley.
He said: -... . :.
"The idea is good one and should
be encouraged. A man who tries to
rob the people by means of trust or
by wrecking bank or railway should
no more be countenanced by society
than plain highwayman. The thing
needed is to awaken and educate the
public mind and conscience on such
matters"

dnset Committee Not UnaDim ous on tho
Results OF the investigation. .,s
ALBANY, Jan. 17.-The reports Of the
majority and minority mem bers of the
Mazet investigating committee have
been presented to the assembly. The
majority report reads:
''1n many departments irregularities
were found. For such as are admins
srative the remedy must be sought at
the ballot box and not at the courts"
1t declares that 'twe condemn the GEN.
tral power, not the man who sits in the
mayors chair, but the man who stands
behind it. We see the same arbitrary
power debating appointments, control
ling boards and directing the policy of
the assembly and council. We see the
powers of government prostituted to
protect criminals, to demoralize the po-
lice, to debauch the public conscience
and to turn governmental functions
into channels for private gain. The
proof is conclusive. not that the public
treasury has been directly robbed, but
that .
Great Opportunities Have Been Given
by public officials to enable favored in
dlviduals to work for their own per-
sonal benefit. -
'The conduct of the present police
department of the city of New York is
! unqualifedly bad. Robberies, bunco
games, deceits, frauds and thefts have
increased in an alarming degree and
the detection of these crimes and the
recovery of public property has already
decreased during the last two years."
The minority report says:
GAS to the report Of the majority in
general we feel justified in claiming
that it is grossly unfair, conspicuously
partisan, coarse in language, vitupera-
tive in temper and absolutely unjusti-
fed except by the reckless disregard
and perversion of the proof adduced
before your committee. The commit
tee was from the beginning discredlted
before the people as the partisan pur-
pose of its creation was universally rec
ognized."

ON ACCOUNT OF HIGH PRICES
List of Public Buildings on Which Work
Is Suspended in Preparation.

OS -
Is Suspended in Preparation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Mr. Taylor,
assistant secretary of the treasury in
charge of the erection of public build
ings, is preparing for transmission to
congress list Of public buildings in
the United States, on which work has
been stopped or never begun, on ac-
count of the price increase of building
materials or the shortage of iron. There
are number of cities which have been
voted money by congress for public
bulldogs. In many cases the build
ings have never been begun, because
contractors would not undertake their
construction within the appropriation.
Sites in many cases have been secured,
but there the matter has been held up.
Congress will be asked to increase these
appropriations so that the protected
buildings may be erected as originally
intended, :

warranted

The death OF D. B. Smith, which
occurred at the Occidental Hotel in
San Francisco on the Both of De-
cember, 1899, removes from the COM
munity man who had identified
himself with Hawaii, and who al
ways proved an enterprising and
valuable citizen.
Mr.. Smith left short while ago
for California where he intended to
spend the holidays with his young
daughter who is attending school in
the Convent of Notre Dame.
Mr.. Smith was not in very good
health when he left Honolulu but
his friends hoped that the sea voy-
age and change in climate would be
beneficial to him.
He was taken suddenly i'll and be
fore medical aid could be called he
was dead. An inquest was held and
the coroner's verdict was death
through heart failure.
The deceased was born in North
Carolina and was about as years of
age. He arrived in Honolulu in
1884 and engaged in several enter
prises. He was the promoter of the
OF the first skating rink when the
"craze" was on and later on he start
ed "roller coaster" on the corner
of Beretania and Punchbowl streets.
After a trip to the Coast he returned
with an electric light plant which
he sold tCthe Kalakaua government
and he became friend of the late
monarch who honored him by con-
ferring decoration on him.
Several years elapsed and d. B.
Smith established the Manufac-
turer's Shoe Go. on Fort street, the
leading shoe business in town. Re-
Gently he felt too i'll to attend to the
worries of the business which had
proven very remunerative and he
sold out to the firm now owning the
establishment. After becoming a
man of leisure he made several trips
to his old home but always returned
to Hawaii, the land he loved, and
where he had valuable Investments.
The deceased was a generous man
with big heart under his shirt and
ready hand in his we'll filled pocket.
There care many here, especially
among the Hawaiians, who will shed
a tear to-day upon hearing of the
sad death of D. B. Smith.
