The republicans do not take kindly to
Bryan's assertion that 1.-THE republican
party which was not willing that black
man should be sold for $1,000 now claims
that Filipino can be bought for $3.50"
but they fail utterly to show wherein
the charge is incorrect. The United
States is claiming sovereignty in the
Philippines by right of purchase from
Spain. Sovereignty means the exercise
of absolute power over life and property.
The theory of modern political science is
that sovereignty resides in the people
and that government is merely the
agency by which it is exercised. In
effect, that the government derives it's
just powers from the consent of the gov
erned. The claim of the United States
is that we have acquired sovereignty
over the Filipinos at the rate of $3.50
per Filipino paid to Spain. We are en-
deavoring to confirm our purchase by
force of arms. Such sovereignty as we
claim in the Philippines is totally op-
posed to the principle of republican
government. 1t is rather identified with
the autocratic power of an emperor, as
in Russia and China. The Filipinos
object to being sold like so much hemp.
They are resisting the sale as they ought
to resist IL.

The Bee is among those who are
nightly pleased to see so many charm
ing school ma'ams in Kalispell this week
Others who are pleased are young men
contemplating matrimony. Strange
though it may be there is no specimen
of femininity so attractive to the male
biped as a good looking school ma am
and all school ma'ams are good looking.
1t is strange because school ma'ams sci
dom marry. They are too much in love
with their profession to waste time
thinking about the joyousness of matri-
mony. Occasionally, however, one is
caught unawares by Dan Cupid and his
deadly arrow finds the vulnerable spot. In
such cases the delinquent is Immediately
ostracised. 1t is because they are so
hard to get and because they make the
best wives in the world that school
ma ans are SO much in demand in the
marriage market. Their reluctance to
forsake their profession is not strange.
1t is delightful task to rear the tender
thought, to teach the young idea how to
shoot" And it is prominently woman's
province. A male school teacher is an
anachronism, except in the colleges and
universities. Men are not the natural
prcceptors of children. The pedagogue
with his knee breeches, swallow tailed
coat and severe spectacles is long since
out of date, and his modern prototype
is rapidly being crowded out of the pri-
mary schools. The modern school
teacher is a bright young woman with a
conscientious devotion to her work and
an instructive sympathy with the
thoughts and aspirations of childhood.
The Bee extends it's fluctuations to the
Flathead county teachers and hopes
they may grow in grace and in prof.
cheney in the noble calling which is
theirs.

smote one against the other Hanna
the king, doesn't seem quite in such a
state of perturbation as his ancient prede-
cessor, but considering the comparative
credence given to such manifestations in
the day of Belshazzar and in the day of
Mckinley the republican boss's anxiety
for the fate of his protege in the forthcom-
ing election is sufficiently acute to be
significant. Chairman Hanna is re-
ported as saying that II know the nature
of the contest which is before us and I
tell you that you cannot afford to take
anything for granted or miss trick"
The situation must indeed be serious
from republican standpoint when
Hanna is moved to a public utterance
of this nature. The necessity must be
great when it requires such an unequivo-
cal statement of the chances in favor
of Bryan's election. Perhaps the trusts
and the infant industries are not con-
tributing as generously to the republi-
can campaign Golfers as Hanna wants
them to, and he is stirring them to &C
ton by warning of the danger which
threatens their special privileges under
the republican administration. Hanna
may we'll feel uneasy. The outlook for
the downfall of imperialism grows
brighter each day. The spirit of com
mercialism, the lust of territorial ag-
grandizment and the gospel of greed are

NORTHERN The recent anti-negro
NEGRO riots in New York sug-
OPPRESSION. gest the reflection that
the northern states are not freefrom the
southern desire to repress the negro
which the northern press finds occasion
to so severely criticise from time to time.
IT the murder of a policeman can so en-
rage New York mob that every negro
who shows his head in the disturbed
district is stoned or beaten and threat
ened with lynching, there seems to be
little room for northern criticism of the
southern practice of summarily lynching
negroes guilty of assaulting white wo-
men. 1t is very easy for newspapers and
public men in the north to condemn
negro oppression in the south, for the
very reason that they probably know
little or nothing of the situation in those
sections of the country where the negro
is most numerous. 1t will be harder for
them to account for the New York stu
alton. The truth of the matter seems to
be that the negro is. as a rule, prone to
abuse the privileges of citizenship. The
greater part of them are respectful only
to superior power. Give the average
niger an inch and he'll take a mile. His
natural character is brutal and bestial
and he is very generally detcsted by
white people of both north and south.
The south has more of him and finds the
business of suppression more oncrous.
The affair in New York is evidence that
the north is not slow to follow the south
ern example when occasion offers.

WOULD SUIT The Helena Herald
THE says that the Clark
CLARIFIES. republicans throughout
the state may agree upon j. H.
Geiger, de facto senator from this
county, as their candidate for gov
ernor. This would be consistent to
say the least of it. Mr.. Geiger is the
kind of republican the Clark people
are very fond Of In the first place he
was the willing medium of their revenge
upon the man who found them out in
their rascality and exposed it. He was
nothing 10th to accept seat in the state
senate to which he was not elected. He
saw opportunities ahead and once in a
position to take advantage of them he
lost no time in doing SO. His luck at
faro and poker from the time he sue
ceeded to position where he could vote
for Clark for United States senator was
truly remarkable. He won from $500
to $l7OO in this way. In fact his luck
was SO good after he had secured seat
in the senate that the chairman of the
Clark bribery investigating committee
at Washington asked him to explain why
he had such better luck gambling after
he became member of the legislature
than he had before? Then he won $1,000
on horse race at Peoria, Ill. In fact
money came to him SO easy after he be-
came senator that he found $11OO in his
room one morning, expressing the opin-
ion that the money had found it's way
into his room through the transom,
hence his familiar sobriquet of ''Transom
Geiger." The deliberate judgment of
the senate committee was that Mr.
Geiger had been bribed to vote for w.
A. Clark, and that the poker, race horse
and transom stories were, to use a
uphemism, fairy tales. By all means let
the Clark republicans nominate Mr..
Geiger, and if any of them have doubts
about his ability to serve them faith
fully and we'll in the peculiar practices
for which they are notorious they are
respectfully referred to his testimony

leges and elections in their investigation

IRADERS UNITE.

AS a result of the mass meeting of
Japanese and Chinese last Saturday
night, there is to be a union organiza-
tion of the Chinese and Japanese mer-
chants of Honolulu. A meeting to dis
cusS the subject was held last night at
the rooms of the United Chinese SOcie-
ty. The scope and benefits to be ex-
pected from the organization were fully
discussed. It was held that merchants
of the two nationalities have many in
terests in common; they deal in mer-
chandise affected by the same cond-
would be furthered and benefited by
an organization in which both national
tiles would be represented.
AS a result of the conference it was
decided to organize under the name of
the Chinese and Japanese Merchants
Union. A committee was appointed to
draft form of organization. Future
meetings win be held to complete the
formation of the union. Each nation
ality will have equal representation in
| it, and the purpose of the organization
| is to act on the usual class of matters
| with which mercantil leassocfatiOns deal,
as we'll as to act on matters which con-
cern their own particular lines of trade,
and in addition, matters which affect
the interest of the Japanese and Chi
nese people in common.
The representatives of the Chinese

| Chow, T. Kat Poo, l.. Chong, Vim
Quon, L. AhlO and Chung Ming. The
Japanese were represented by Mr.

DRAMATICALLY SITUATED AND
ALL COMPLETE.
Discovered by a Party of Mountain
Climbers in Manoa valley-How the
sOkolehao Was Made.

George r. Carter, j. r. Gait and S. G..
Wilder found as romantically situated,
and complete a "moonshine" okolehaO
still as could be imagined, last Sunday.
They were tramping up through upper
Manoa valley when they came across
1t. 1t is located far up near the head
of the valley on the EVA side, close
by a waterfall. This waterfall has q
sheer descent of about fifty feet. On
the ridge just at the level where the
water takes its leapis a hut or house
matched with ii leaves. Anyone sitting
in ttis hut could see the approach of
q visitor a long way off. Back of the
house was found the imu, or earth
oven, a hole in the ground lined at the
bottom with porous stones to be heated
by the fire above them and afterwards
to be piled high and covered over with
the ii root, which is the material from
which the "mash" and okolehao is
made.S
Near by was a place where it was
evident that the cooked I'll root had
been strained, the process of straining
it being to wrap it up in a piece of
canvass or other cloth and then wiring
the cloth as the washerwoman did
clothes in the days before wringers had
been invented.
Close by this spot again were the
stones and fireplace over which the
lDunaO OF Kettle uSeO III QlSIllllnB ndQ
been set, when in use, and at distance
indicating that coil or worn" of
considerable length had been used WIS
salmon barrel into which the distilled
liquor had run from the worm. There
was another salmon barrel there prob
ably used to ferment the cooked ii root
before distilling it. There were some
calabashes containing a little sour poi
and apparently some yeast used in fer
menting. Everything requisite to a
dlstillery was in place except the ipu-
hao and the worm" These had been
| probably hidden somewhere near. From
the little stream which formed the
waterfall, a split bamboo carried the
cool water of the stream to the worm
| to eondense the vapor from the ipuhaO
into the ol;olehao which when the still
was in operation trickled from the
worm into the salmon barrel.
The location is described as an ideal
one for a "moonshine" distillery. 1t is
distant and almost inaccessible. There
the cooking of the ii root, and the boil
ing of the mash. There is plentyrof the
ii root to be gathered and the water
in the little stream is of a delightful
fcoolHess to condense, the vapOrs in the
| worm. r,,
A hatchet picked up by one of the
party proved to be an American made
hatchet with the word "Oregon" stamp
ed on the blade, indicating that in
some way 1t had come from the battle
shin Oregon, perhaps in exchange for
bottle of okolehao.

'RAN IN NUUANU VALLEY PROF. kOEBELE Returns
SHOWERS LAST NIGHT
AND TODAY.
At Last the Reservoirs are in a Fair
Way to be Filled-Fall of LAC at Lua-
kaha Last Night.

Nuuanu valley is having rain, and
considerable of it at that. Besides,
heavy showers fell on the mountains
last night and have continued nearly
all of this afternoon.
This will be a great relief to valley
residents, for it means that the reser-
voirs will begin to fill up again. The
heavy fall on the mountains is the most
important as 1t will not only find it's
way down to the reservoirs but will
have a wholesome effect upon the ar
tesian supply.
During last night 146 inches fell at
Luakaha. This is near the reservoirs.
Heavy showers have fallen since this
report was telephoned, and it is not i'm
probable that the total fall for the
twenty-four hours will approach three
inches.
There has been a slight rise in Nuu-
anu stream today Evidence of the
valley showers is most apparent, how
ever, in the murky color of the water
IL the showers continue tonight. which
is not unlikely, there may be notable
rise in the river.
The water works people are naturally
jubilant over the showers. In a year
very little rain has fallen in that local
ltty. Even the town showers appear not
to have gone into the valleys as former
ly The, one rain of the winter was al
most entirely absorbed by the parched
ground above the reservoirs.
The showers of last night and this
morning were general over this island,
though the fall was not so heavy else
where, from all accounts. as on the
mountains Mr.. Mendonca reports
some rain on the pastures over the
Pail. but nothing like what is needed
there.
