Certain Condition S.

The Cabinet met yesterday morning
at the usual hour. 1t was in reality
a special session, as the regular meet
ing takes place today. 1t is understood,
however, that as the order of business
at today's session will be in the de-
partment of finance, and as several
matters were pressing, it was deemed
advisable by President Dole to consider
these yesterday which was done.
;, There were present at the meeting
President Dole and Ministers E. A.
Mott-Smith, Alex. Young and S. NJ.
Damon.
Mr.. Damon read a communication |
signed by sixty-fve people of Hilo,
dated January 9th asking to have mail
for the island of Hawaii forwarded
direct from the Coast by sailing vessel
or. steamer to Hilo. 1t was decided
| that the communication be answered,
saying that this will be impracticable
| in regard to foreign mails, but the Min
| lister of Finance will try to have it
! carried out in regard to mails from the
United States for Hilo.
In the matter or the communication
from the Board of Health dated jan
uary Goth recommending that the
drainage ditch at Kewalo, beginning
at King street and running by the cor
ner of South and Queen streets to the
sea, be put into sanitary condition,
, it was voted chat the Minister of the
Interior be advised to have this ditch
stoned up and cemented and apply to
the Board of Health for the authorize
ton to do it.

PROBABLY THE CAUSE.
Robertson Said to Have Destroyed
Rats Carelessly.

Current rumor says that some time
prior to his death, J. Weir Robertson
stated to some friends that he held the
record for rat-catching, as he had that
day killed no less than seventeen in the
store.
This would seem to indicate the pres
ence in large numbers of the rodents,
and probably accounts for the mys-
terious manner by which Robertson
became a victim to the plague, more
particularly as the presence of large
numbers of rats in the store is admit
ted by former employees, who state
that it was no uncommon thing to Kill
as many as nine or ten when the hour
stack was being moved.
1t is also stated, after the store hao
been fumigated some time ago, that no
less than twenty dead rats were tounu
and were afterwards cremated Dy

was supposed at the time that tumlga'
ton had killed the yernin, ana no par
ticular care was exercised IN handAna

THE STREET CARS.
Room Left for Improvement but no
.tuger a Menace.


4epger Menace.
In view of the numerous statements
to the effect that the appearance OF the
street cars does not warrant the re-
port of Mr.. Lydecker that they have
been placed in sanitary condition, a
representative of the Advertiser called
on Mr.. Lydecker yesterday afternoon
and learned the following:
con Saturday morning President
Wood received letter from Paul Neu-
mann stating that the orders OF the
Board of Health had been complied
with, and asking that an agent be In
structed to inspect the cars. l was
thereupon directed to examine all cars
-at both Palama and PunahOu and fur
nish my report upon their condition
with as little delay as possible. This
report handed in on the same after
noon. AS far as l remember, | stated
that the cars at Palama were in bet
ter condition than those at Punahou.
''In every instance there was I'M
doubted evidence that the cars had
been washed both inside and out. The
foreman at Palama told me that the
curtains had all been taken down and
| thoroughly washed and that the cars
had been washed with solution of
per cent sulphuric acid. With the ex'
ception of a quantity of dust, which
under the circumstances might be ex
pected, the cars were in fair condition
and although the general appearance
of the cars left considerable room fol
improvement, 1 reported them no lon
ger a menace to health"

raj gravity. A fresh water spring
bubbles up within thirty feet of this
big mineral spring, and living springs
of fresh or freestone water abound
throughout this section. The Beach

Rock and Sulphur creeks unite in

AS A WINTER RESORT
for residents of the northern states
Sulphur has few equals. There is no
excessively cold weather in this lati-
tude, and most of our winter weather
is as mild as that of an autumn day
in New York or Minnesota. The
town is environed with sheltering
groves and there are few days during
the winter season when aconvalescent
lately arrived from the north may net
safely sit out doors or stroll about
the town, and the writer knows from
personal experience that a we'll per-
son acclimated to the extreme north
must speedily aband on winter garments
in favor of lighter apparel when sud-
denly transported into this climate.
A half dozen excellent hotels are kept
open during the winter season. Sew
eral excellent physicians are located
here: we have competent druggists,
first-class hotels and bath houses; also
good mercantile establishments, so
that visitors will find no dearth of ae-
commod alton at this season.
A RAILROAD.
1t is now an assured fact that Sui
phur is to have a railroad. The sur
vey has already been made and the
work of grading same will be begun
by an. 1, 1901. The road will branch
off from the Frisco road at Hickory
and connects with the Santa Fe at
Davis.
SULPHUR SPRINGS BUSINESS MEN.
Few places in the territory are
blessed with such enterprising and
hustling business men as Sulphur.
This page is an index of its business
men, who are all reliable and respon-
sible-they are:

Co., groceries: DR.. ]. P. Keller, den

Chickasaw Indian wants the two Ma
tions to be able to attend school in

should be worked for. Mr.. Leedy is
very enthusiastic on this subject and
it will not be his fault if he does not
succeed in bringing this matter be-
fore the proper authorities and prob
ably succeed in having it carried out.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS
of the Indian Territory, situated in
the central portion of the Chickasaw
Nation, surrounded by one of the
loveliest stretches of country that ever
came from the creative hand of God,
may have been known to the noble
red men since the dawn of human ex-
istence. They certainly were known
to the later inhabitants of this beauti-
full land, the Chickasaws; but the In
dian, naturally secretive, had learned
through generations of experience
that intrusion meant spoliation to
him, and made no effort to publish
their merits abroad. Hence but few
years have gone by since the stock
men and farmers living as non-cit-
liens in the Chickasaw country, under
permits from the tribal authorities,
first CLEANED an inkling of the magical
healing powers of these waters, and
inaugurated the practice of bringing
their families and camping for few
weeks during the hot summer months
in the beautiful groves that here
abound.
AT that time the old Frohman stock
ranch was the only permanent habita-
tion in the neighborhood of these
springs, and it was but five years
since that the Pauls Valley Townsite
Co. now defunct attempted to found
settlement here and built large
tourists hotel that has since become
famous under the patronymic of
''White Sulphur Inn, )" and few tour
lists began to visit the scene. AT the
close OF the summer of 1898 about 100
persons had become permanent resi-
dents, and the curative properties OF
the waters had begun to attract con-
siderable attention. In the spring of
1899 business men commenced locat-
ing, residences and business build
ings, hotels, restaurants and bath
houses were built, and when the town
of Sulphur had been duly incorpo-
rated an enumeration showed a pop
ulation of 6l5 persons. This was in
July of last year, but the town has
grown rapidly and continuously since
then and now has at least fifteen hum
dred permanent residents.
The number of sulphur springs on
the townsite is unknown to the writer,
but the Seven Springs is probably the
finest of the collection. The strongest
of these has a flow of Is gallons per
minute About three hundred feet
southwest of Seven Springs park is
the Lone Sulphur Spring, the finest
sulphur spring known, from which

In his annual report to the Win

If the grandfather clause shall be
held to be unconstitutional. the
question is will the educational

voters black and white alike be ex-
cluded by the provisions of section
who are not qualified by the provis-
ions Of that section, that is, who
cannot read and write any section
of tho constitution in the English
language.
A failure by unconstitutional meth.

from the provisions of section 4, can.
not destroy the provisions Of that
section concerning the qualification

SENATOR TELLER'S OPINION.

On the North Carolina ConstitutIonal
Amendment.
April IL, 1900.
Hon. Marion Butler, United States
Senate.
Dear Sir:-I am in receipt of your
letter, enclosing copy of the proposed
amendment to the North Carolina
constitution and asking my opinion
as a lawyer to the following ques-
tions, to-wit:
First. Is section of the proposed
amendment constitutional
Second. If the Supreme Court
should declare section 5 of the pro-
posed amendment unconstitutional,
would the court hold that the whole
amendment would fall with it, or
that section would fall aud leave
the remaining sections to stand as a
rart of the organic law of your Statei
The amendment proposes an edu-
cational qualification for all voters.
1t is admitted that such educational
qualification applying to all the citi-
zens of North Carolina of voting age
is constitutional.
Section provides as follows:
"Section 5. No male person who

YOU SHOULD POST YOURSELF.

The opponents of the amendment
falsely allege that il is a scheme OF the
Democrats merely to work 1.-THE nigger
racket" and that they try in every
campaign to carry the election by cry
ing "DiggeE, niger, Niger"
Well. If this was true or even IL the
opponents of the amendment believe it
to be true, they certainly ought to be
glad of the chance of putting an end to
it by adopting the amendment and
thereby eliminating the negro entirely
from politics.
Yes, il the opponents Of the amend
ment really believe that the Democrats
use the cry of "nigger" for campaign
purposes or for political capital only,
the most effective way Of putting a stop
tO.it would be the adoption of the
amendment and the elimination of the
negro from politics Chatham Record.
The Record should get Mr.. Simmons
to meet Mr.. Butler and the Populist
candidates, and go out to hear them,
and then it would learn what Populists
believe: for it evidently is in the dark
now.
Democrats know it is unconstitution-
al. Out of two thousand lawyers, they
can only get 1872 to sign legal opinion
that it is constitutional. But they are
using it to fool the people. They know
it will not take the negro out Of poll
tics. They admit it
If they are not trying to foe. the peo-
pie, even the Democrats, why don't
their papers publish the amendment
and election law? Why, the leaders OF
the Democratic party are afraid Of a
fair, impartial discussion Of the amend.
ment before the people.
They know it will disfranchise white
men. There is not man with any re.
spect for his own opinion, who will say
that if the election law is carried out
legally, white men will be disfranchised
by it. Everybody knows that Mr.. Sim.
mons, by his secret circular, in 1895
disfrauchised white men.
