Yet these rules-wlth special refer

COPIED from the best primary laws
known to the legislation OF any OF the
States; primary laws which will yet be
enacted In Hawaii as the only means
TO secure honest politics. We have not
heard single argument against them
which does not betray n desire to do
something underhanded. Why should
not man be forced to give evidence
that he is a Republican before he can
vote in Republican primary or a
Democrat before he can vote I'm "A DEM
ocratic primary? And why ought not
the registration polls to be closed long
enough before the opening of the voting
polls to enable the lists to be examined
SO that political opponents, aliens and
the like may be excluded? The social
ed wlde-open primary like the wide
open town is an offence to honesty and
good morals. 1t was found to be so in
New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco

The Governors appointments will
satisfy conservative men who believe
that good government should be the
one object sought In making up an OIL
clal roster. Mir T.. =. Dole has the
proper experience for the post Of Attor-
ney- General. Mr., Atkinson for that of
Superintendent Of Schools Mr.. a. NJ.
Brown for that OF High Sheriff Mr..
Austin for Auditor. Prof, Alexander for
Surveyor and MIR. J. r. Brown for Com
missioner OF Public Lands. While John
A. McCandless has never. we believe,
been identified with n department Of
public works, his adaptability to the
post he is to I'll Is unquestioned. We
look to see him make an exceptional
record in his useful office. or the new
Executive Secretary, Mr.. Halves, the
Advertiser has little personal knowl-
edge but it feels justified in the belief
that Governor Dole would not have Sc
lected n man for so intimate an official
fellowship as the secretary bears to his
chief, without fun confidence In his
ability and tact.
The Federal administrative appoint
ments In which Mr.. Dole had hand
are also satisfactory. BY retaining Mr.
Dat In the Postoffiee and Mr. Stackable
in the Custom House, faithful per-
Torrance of duty is assured in both
important bureaus. OF most of the
other appointments the Advertiser has
already spoken in detail.

We judge from the excited comments
of the opposition press that Governor
Dole has made a fatal mlsstep. 1t
seems that instead of running things
with lone hand as an honest EXecu-
tive should, he has had the temerity to
ask the heads of the Territorial De
partments 10 meet with him., as the
Cabinet used to do, for counsel and ad-
vice. This he.nous offence Is viewed
not only with alarm but with indigna-
ton. 1t is cabal, a star chamber, "A
secret, black and midnight process
fraught with danger to the common
wealth. Any patriotic American knows
that Governor who does such things
ought To be called to stern account and
impeached II possible. United we fan
divided we stand, We warn Mr. Dole
that unless he ceases to offend the, pro-
prieties by meeting with his fellow
officials to discuss the affairs of gov
eminent. he win be posted daily In the
opposition papers as a man in whom
the fires of patriotism have burnt en-
tirely out and will be suspected of even
graver things.

HAY TO HARTWELL.

The appreciation which Secretary
Hay shows of General Hartwell in the
letter which we reprint this morning
il shared by the best citizens of Ha-
wall. General Hartwell, though much
maligned in n narrow circle at home,
made fast friends of the President and
Secretary of State at Washington and
was able to accomplish very much for
Hawaii that is essential to it's welfare.
He was particularly strong in the work
he did to prevent unwise amendments
to the new organic law.
The consciousness of work well done
Is good thing to have but when other
men high in authority supplement il
with expressions of their confidence
and esteem. it takes on a finer SAVIOR
Few regularly accredited Ministers
from Hawaii at Washington have had
such compliments from the head of the
cabinet as Mr.. Hartwell, in his unofti-
cial relation has overwhelmingly
drawn-and yet they We're all strong
men.
If the truth were known it would APP
pear that the personal character of the
representatives sent to Washington in
the past twenty years-such men as
II. A. p. Carter, DR.. Mott-Smith, Frank
Hatch, w. r. Castle, Prof. Alexander,
a. S. Hartwell ct al.-had more to do
than any other agency in preparing the
mind OF Congress to give Hawaii a
larger measure OF self-government than
Territories are accustomed to receive.

The remarkable story from Washing
ton which we have held back for few
days pending inquiry, may draw out
denials, but these cannot serve in re-
buttal against the local testimony at
hand. While the Advertiser feels sure
that Mr.. Sewall could not have become
Governor If all his friends had stuck to
him, the fact that some of those he
trusted betrayed him was dash of I'M
expected bitterness in the draught of
defeat. The story told in our Washing
ton correspondence reeks with perfidy
but it is the sort of thing one always
finds in politics

Rats are multiplying in this city and
may at any time catch the plague from
passing ships or from some of the Ash
attic pest holes that are rapidly taking
shape The Advertiser has never
swerved from the belief that a large
bounty should be paid for rats in these
Islands and made permanent feature
of the budget. Mainland States and
Territories have offered bounties on coy
Otes, gophers, wolves, foxes and other
four-footed pests, yet none of these
classes of animals ever did so much
harm to the people among whom they
preyed as a single rat with the bubonic
plague would do in this community.

The more Mr.. Edings or Eddings'

he would be an acceptable jurist on the
Hawaiian circuit? Mr.. Dole disclaims
responsibility and the friends of Col.

FLANNELS DIDN'T SHRINK.
They Went Through New Process
by the WasherwOman and
Grew In Size.

"NoW, Mary, be sure and tell that
washerwoman not to shrink this new
woolen underwear of mine into knot -
said newspaper man to his wife when
the first breath of chilly air announced
the approach Of winter, and he dis
played purchase of fannels he had
made downtown. ''Tell her to stretch
'em when she washes 'em, and that
will keep 'em in shape and size"
The wife promised to caution the
washerwoman, and accordingly when
the next Monday came around she in
structed the laundry artistic about the
first suit. The garments came through
the ordeal without an appreciable
change in size. SO did the next suit,
and the third. Every Monday the same
caution was repeated, and the corsci-
entious washerwoman pulled and
tugged at the fiannels until the threads
were strained.
"Well. these garments are keeping
their size" muttered the husband, as
he put on some of them several weeks
after the purchase, and when they had
noticed the sleeves were a little long
and the legs crowded his socks and
shoe tops. A week or two later he
found it necessary to put two folds
in his Wristbands, and the folds around
his ankles grew bulkier. Before a
month had passed he grew alarmed.
Still he hesitated about saying any
thing that might change the growth
of the garments in the opposite direc-
ton. He had some experience in the
gradual shrinkage CT flarnels, and he
decided to be quiet.
But the stretching continued. Each
washing recessitated an extra fold and
higher hitch. lie knew something had
10 be done or he would soon be obliged
to discard one Of the garments and
use the other as union suit if the
muscular laundress was not STOPPED.
! He made it matter of secrecy with
his wife to call a halt IN the stretching.
| The next Monday the wife surprised
the washerwoman in the basement
laundry eating her lunch while sit
ting in a swing made of the husband s
underwear, and the secret was out.
The husband is hoping that by spring

condition Meanwhile the resOurceful

Closing Of Mills.

Mckinley hit upon a happy phrase
three years ago, designed to keep the
attention of the voters away from his
attitude on the silver question-it was
to the effect that it would be better to
open the mills rather than the mints.
For awhile after McKinleys election
the process of opening the mills went
on-not due in any way to his election,
but because the United States was par
ticipating in the worldwide recovery
from seven years of lean picking. As
soon as possible Mckinley pushed
through congress bill for higher tariff
protection, the trusts sprung up in a
night and the process of shutting down
the mills was begun and is in operation
to this day. Scarce a day passes in
which some trust does not shut down
few mills for the sake of limiting the
output, creating an inadequate supply
and thus giving excuse for high prices
and increasing prices. Consolidation
of office forces, reduction of number
of travelling men, economy in rents, re-
duction of advertising expenses and
many other means have been employed
nv the trusts to make more money with
less expense than formerly.-Helena
(Mont.) Independent.

AGRICULTURE PROTESTS.
The Administration Policy of Expan-
sion Does Not Meet with Gem
eraI Approval.

The first response from the nation to
the colonial policy seems to come from
the agricultural classes. In conformity
with the presidents notion that the new
possessions are as much part of the
United States as Florida, California or
Alaska, Secretary of War Root proposes
to abolish tariff barriers against gooGs
of our own possessions. Immediately
comes this protest from Springfield, o.,
from Herbert Myrick, editor of an agri-
cultural paper. He telegraphed to the
president as follows:
eve respectfully, but most vigorous
ly protest against the admission of trop-
ical produce free of duty or at reduced
rates, as recommended by the secretary
of war this morning. The protest is
made in behalf of millions of American
farmers, laborers and capital engaged in
the domestic culture or manufacture of
sugar beets, sugar cane, tobacco, cigars,
fruits, vegetables, rice, etc. They will
not submit to being ruined for the bene-
fit of trusts employing cooiie labor that
inevitably will control production ard man
ufactures in the tropics That we speak
with authority in behalf of these great
domestic interests will soon be demon
strated."
Such protest as that may be calcu-
lated to strike protectionist like Nc
Kinley with great force. If this new pol
icy of destiny shall upset McKinley's al
legged protection-made prosperity, the
last condition may be worse than the
first. The agriculturists to whom Nc
Kinley taught the doctrine of protection
evidently remember it and are selfish
enough to want the benefit of it. If i'm
perialism is a question of business, as
Commissioner DENLY declared in re-
cent article, the protectionists may
make the president turn his back on the
policy of destiny in order TO preserve
his own personal policy of protection at
home. DENLY said:
''The cold hard. practical question alone
remains: Will the possession of these
islands benefit us as a nation? If it will not,
set them free tomorrow and let their peo-
pie, if they please, cut each others throats
or play what pranks they please. To this
complexion we must come at last, that, un-
less it is beneficial for us to hold these
Islands. we should turn them loose"
When it comes to determining the
cold, hard, practical question, "does it
pay?" the president may hear protests
from the nation more emphatic than
even that of the agriculturists.-U
