Judging fro m the treatment Of
emf ssaries from the Japanese Immi-
grafton Companies to the striking"
coolies it is safe to say that there
exists an ill-feeling between the
companies and the men who arrived
here under their guidance. Hereto
fore the laborers listened with hum
BILE obedience to the agents OF the
companies, now they kick them and
threaten to kill them. The fact is
that the men who were under con-
tract paid every month a certain
sum to the companies to pay the ex-
penses OF their passage to Hawaii

The present etringency OF the

least, embarrassing to msny busi-
ness men especially to those who
have undertaken the promotion OF
financial enterprises which will un-
doubtedly prove successful in the
future but which at present are
constant drain on the available
funds OF the promoters. A hore is
expressed in the money market that
the stringency will relax upon the
pay yment OF Hawaiian government
bonds by the federal government.
1t is believed that thereby great

moneys deposited for the home

stand, decline to give up the money,
and an interesting debate can be
looked forward to in the next I'm

there is collusion between q GER
tain faction of the Imperial Cabinet,
which is compromise ministry,
and the wealthy i'm migration com-
panies, and that some startling de-
velopments will be heard. The
Japanese here have lost faith in the
agents of the companies, and their
mistrust of these people is probably
the main cause of the unfortunate
strikes and troubles.

been found guilty of murder in the
first degree, as the riot was really
only the result of drunken bout
and there was no prsmiditation to
kill. Under the present strained
relations with the Japanese laboring
classes in the Territory, we think it
would be wise to show some lenien-
cy and avoid the execution Of a man
whose offense has been forgotten.
We fail to set why any liberal
minded man or woman should OBJ
ject to the publication Of Sunday

issues of the great papers on the
Mainland are boon to the people.
They contain pot-pourri OF every
thing from articles on abstract
science, to how to run city.govern-
ment or how to make mayonaise or
knit the baby's socks. They deal
with religious matters and tell
which horse won at the races and
how the Prince of Wales brushes
his whiskers. A man weary with
the weeks work, too tired, too lazy
or too poor to leave his home can
enjoy his Sunday with his fve,cent
paper and chase the reading of the
subjects which suit him best. Why
there should be howl because the

Where is the harm then to read

hope the Republican will not be

If we can belieye the official or

II the appointment takes place Mr..
McCandless has stultifed himself in
a manner which will make it impossi-
BILE for any Senate to endorse Mr..
Dole's selection of him for the i'm
portant position he now fills. We do
not know Mr.. Rowell personally and
do not even claim to be in position
to judge of his ability. But we do
know that the last Legislature OF

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

One OF the duties of the Legisla-
ture will be to make'a number OF re-
forms in regard to Oahu Prison.
The prison is very we'll conducted
by the present jailor; in fact we
have never known 10 be in better
shape, but the jailor has not the
power to make the Improvements
he may consider advisable, or make
such changes in the present system
as he may deem beneficial for the
object of the prison and for the dis
cipline. If there should be suffici-
ent mUney in the treasury. we would
suggest that the old insanitary
rookery be torn down and prison
erected in some other location. If
there is not sufficient money to
spare for such purpose many i'm
provements could be made at COM
paratively small cost, AS far as the
prison rules are concerned they
they could be greatly improved.
We believe that solitary confinement
should be given to desperate char
acters until their spirit" is subdued.
The 1ogging pole has very little
effect and is brutal method; few
days on bread of water in dark
cell has no lasting effect on a
desparado who knows that he soon
will see daylight again and parade
the streets of merry Honolulu,
where he always has chance to
make a break and escape as his
guards, however vigilant, cannot
shoot in our populous thorough
fares. The solitary confinement is
the "remedy" adopted in all modern
penitentiaries and it has proven a
success.

witness the great race meeting on

will be grand day and number Of
people is already booked to leave

is pity to notice that the new park
is called Independence park instead

A Japanese who has been in Jail
for more than year is to be hanged
next month. The man was found
guilty of murder during the Kahu-
ku riot which occurred in March
1899, and was sentenced to death.
Owing to the unsettled state Of
affairs of Hawaii he was granted
several respites but there is no legal
reason now upon which he can base
a further petition for respite or a
new trial or any other form of stay
of execution. Wa think this i. an
instance where the executive should
step in and commute the sentence.
If the man had been hanged when
his offense was fresh in the memory
of the people, his punishment would
probably have acted as warning to
his fellow men. More than a year

NOT RICH IN COPPER.
Geological Survey Publishes Re-
port on Mining Conditions in
Northern Douglas County.

Madison, Wis. April 2S.-[ Special. /
The Wisconsin Geological and National
History Survey issued today report on
the copper-bearing rocks of Il portion of
the northern part of the state. The re-
port is entitled preliminary Report of
the Copper-bearing Rocks of Douglas
County and was prepared by Prof. V.
S. Grant of Northwestern university.
The report in brief follows:
Northern Wisconsin has two belts of
rocks which belong to the copper bearing
or keWoenaWan series. The northern of
county and extends west and southwest
through Douglas county. The southern
belt enters the state in northern Ashland
county and runs southwest into Burnett
county. This report deals with the
northern belt. The rocks are mainly
dark colored traps which occur in the
form of lava flows that dip toward the
south and southeast. The upper part Of
a flow usually contained small cavities
(amygdalOidal cavities which have been
SLED with certain minerals, such as
quartz and Gazette, and with these is at
times native copper. This metal occurs
in the same manner and in rocks Of the
same age and origin as at the noted
mines in northern Michigan. In the
northern part Of Douglas county pros
pecting for copper has been carried on at
intervals for over fifty years and was
actively resumed in 1893 and 1895.
These eXplOra tons have revealed a num-
Der of localities where copper occurs. In
some of these places there are small
bodies of the rock which are sufficiently
rich in copper to form Il good ore, but as
far as known none CT these are large
enough to be mined with profit.

THE PORTE'S REPLY.
Belief that 1t will be in the Mega
tive or that no Reply will
be Made.

ConstantinOple. Friday, April 27-The
United States legation has not yet re-
ceived the Porte's answer to the note
handed to Tewfk Pasha, the Turkish
foreign minister by the American charge
d'affaires, regarding the indemnity
claims; and the impression is gaining
ground that the reply will be in the neg
alive or even that no reply will be made.
The latter alternative, however, seems to
be unlikely. The general opinion is that
without a display of force the Porte Ger
tainly will not pay the claims, because it
wishes to show the moslem world that
it only yields to force.
1t is not considered here that a simple
rupture of diplomatic relations will rem
der the Porte easier to deal with but
rupture of formal relations is not
thought necessary, as the sending of d
warShip to the Mediterranean port
would suffice to obtain settlement of
the matter i'll less than twenty-four
hours.

of the indemnity condition by an order

Method Of Producing
Power

Portage, Wis. April 2S-[ Special !
James Clark, young man of this city
and at present employed as an engineer
III the service of the c., NJ & St P rail

ducing power, which he claims will revO-
lutionlze the steam stationary power of
the world. Mr.. Clark's metlioti combines
the use of compressed air ana water. 1t
does away entirely with the use of fuel;
there is no smoke, no steam. no noise, no
dirt Everything is enclosed and out of
sight. Mr.. Clark says the machinery
will cost no more and probably not as
much as the steam machinery now in
use. When set in motion it will run I'M
til something wears out, unless stopped,
which can be done at will. 1t can be
started up again at any time desired, and
the speed regulated as desired. The
power that can be produced is almost I'M
limited Mr.. Clark is a native of this
city and has already acquired some rep
utation as an inventor, having previously
patented several designs His new pow
reproducing method has been secured by

invention on the market, but several cap
italists are investigating the matter and
