BLIND JUSTICE.

The doctrine of the Constitution fol-
lowing the flag. a Democratic doctrine
which one Republican judge supported
recently, has not met with favor at the
hands OF Federal Judge Estee, who has
inequivocaIly given as his opinion that
the Constitution and laws of the Re-
public of Hawaii were in operation from
the date of annexation till Congress
supplied the Islands with an organic
law.
Edwards got off on a technicality and
is now at large. Marshall came up
against a bench which did not agree
with the bench as constituted in the
Edwards case. Marshall brought the
matter before the Federal Court and
has found the same view taken by that
as was taken by the Supreme Court. 1t
is unfortunate that such a criminal as
Edwards should have got off in such
a technicality as he did. 1t was an un-
Justice committed in the name of law.
Edwards, at once, has been trying to
Join the school force in Manila, but on
that tack he has been headed off. Ed
wards is a much worse criminal than
Marshall, and may yet do incalculable
harm in his future career. But the un-
certainty of the composition of a bench
has let the worse criminal free and has
punished, but it certainly arouses SYM
sympathy with Marshall, who undoubt-
eddy was to a great extent the cats
paw Of others, who egged him to do
what he did. This does not palliate his
offence and it is just that he should be
punished, but it certainly arouse SYM
pathy For Edwards there could be no
sympathy, and there can only be regret
that an Interpretation of the law, in
which the majority Of judges do not
concur should have set a debased Grim
inal like this free before he had paid
the full penalty of his wrong doing.

FORESTS AND PLANTERS.

The forestry question is likely to
come well to the front. The reports
upon Forestry presented at the Plan
tiers meeting have been ordered print
ed, and will be available for the public
AS there is a question which touches
the welfare of all, the reports will be
eagerly read. Further we are to have
an expert in forestry sent by the Fede-
raj government. The work of this gem
tleman in conjunction with the CO.
operation of the planters will be of the
greatest benefit.
Forest preservation does not mean
the indiscriminate growth of tree
masses. 1t does not mean the sacrifice
of cultivated areas, nor does it mean
the shutting out of homesteaders. Too,
much forest may be as harmful as no
forest at all. But forest preservation
means the scientific growth of trees,
and the care of them where they are
needed. A true forest expert, such as
we expect here shortly, will go over the
TO say. such a portion of land now
covered with forest, can be cleared. The
conditions are such. that the forest is
not needed for water supply. On the
other hand he will show where other
land must be reforested, and where
grave danger results from it's having
been cleared.
To bring forward an argument that
forests do not increase the rainfall, is
absurd. No one claims that forests in
crease the rainfall But forests save
the water Of the rainfall from rushing
headlong in torrents to the sea. If you
make your hillsides,, bare, the rain
when it comes down simply tears down
in cataracts and IS gone, while the hill
side is dry as bone as soon as the sun
comes out. In point OF fact 1t is like a
piece of corrugated iron. Again a very
heated surface viii drive off the rain
clouds, instead Of attracting them. It
is not that no rain falls upon the region
of the desert of Sahara. Rain does fall,
but the radiation of heat is so great
that it never reaches the earth. It is
turned into vapor and driven off before
it can get to the earth.
The advantage Of systematic forest
preservation requires no argument. It
does require energy, however, to make
a proper beginning. After much con-
sideration we seem to have at last
reached point where We shall have a
proper scientific treatment of our for
ests. Much mischief has been done,
some Of it, as on the Waianae range

Five Filipino boys, ranging in age
from eleven to sixteen years, have been
sent to the mainland to be educated,
upon the recommendation of the Phil
ippine Commission. They are under the
guardianship of President Wheeler of
the University of California and have
been placed in Boones Academy, where
they will prepare for the University of
California. 1t would not be a bad idea
to send some Filipino boys to one of
our Island institutions. The lads would
find the climate congenial and the peo-
pie having some similarity with them
selves. They would prepare more easily
for the plunge into college life in the
States.

and in parts of Hawaii, probably ire
parable. But with our excellent soil,
and the rapidity of growth of certain
classes of our trees, a very few years
will suffice to bring about a better con-
dition of things. There will then be
opportunity to plant out the slower
growing forest trees which will in time
give a permanent and valuable forest
estate from which our posterity will be
able to draw a steady public income,
while the water supply will be assured.

RAISE CAMPAIGN FUND.
J. G. Johnson Hits Upon Bran
New Scheme.

J. G.. Johnson has hit upon new
scheme for recognizing the members of
the Democratic party in Kansas, at the
same time promulgating a plan by
which the national committee hopes to
get about $4,000 in addition to the
sums already raised by Kansas for the
campaign.
Mr.. Johson has sent out circular let
tiers, beginning, My Dear SIR and ex-
planning how the national committee
has recognized the special fitness of
the individual to whom the letter is ad-
dressed. For this reason the national
committee" explains Mr.. Johnson,
has made you committeeman, rep
reesnting the national committee in
your precinct"
This appointment lasts for a year for
which the recipient of the honor is
asked to sign a blank form agreeing to
contribute Immediately 81, and to send
the committee 81 September 1 and an
other January /.
There are 1890 precincts in Kansas
and the appointment of committee
men representing the national COM
,nittee' in each of these, with the con-
tribution of So per precinct, will raise
the national committee nearly $4,000,
which added to the sums the state COM
mittee has raised by the promissory
note system will take considerable of
the Kansas bank surplus into the Chi

THE IRON TRADE.
Net Reduction in Furnaces Makes
Brighter Outlook

Cleveland, O., Aug. 16.-The Iron
Trade Review says:
A better feeling on all sides is evident
in the iron trade, as a result of the de-
velopments of the past week. Prices
have not improved except that some
sellers who have loaded up on low priced
bars are frmer. In pig iron the week
brought lower quotations but the larger
and the more widespread inquiry for
iron, with more general disposition to
contract for finished material for some
months ahead may be taken as indica-
tions that confidence is not lacking
That a net reduction of A furnaces
had been made in the active list be-
tween July L and August 1 was notice
to the trade that the remedy is being
applied and it is we'll known that the
September l statement Will show a large
if not an equal reduction. Furnaces
had on their yards August 1, according
to western pig iron association figures,
GIG, 900 tons, or 100000 tons more than on
July 1. For August it is expected that
the increase will be very much less In
the south a better feeling has resulted
from the export and domestic inquiry
received in the week. Sales of from TO-
900 to 10 900 tons of iron to go abroad
were made at Birmingham. The sales
made indicate that furnaces are not all
through cutting prices, though the COM
petition is narrowing more and more, to
the cheapest producers and putting
more and more of the boom furnaces on
the idle list, many of them to remain
there permanently.
Southern furnaces have found the quo
tations of northern producers considera-
bly, below anything they were willing to
meet in a good many cases and some I'M
evenenness with cuts to meet COMPETE
ton may be expected in the immediate
future. The meeting of manufacturers
of structural material at New York last
week decided in view of the present con-
dition of order books that no reduction
is necessary at this time but meanwhile
low prices are being made on plates in
combinations with shapes as was the
case on a 10000 ton ship yard contract in
the central west the past week. COnsid-
cradle bridge work is held up awaiting
the cut which consumers believe is on
ly a question of time. Plate mills are
steadily booking business at unchanged
prices. 1t is probable that the Lake ship
yards will take orders in the near fu-
ture for a number of vessels, in addition
to the six closed in the past week Bar
iron has not had its usual share of re-
cent business in view of the low prices
quoted on steel and this condition fur
nished another argument for the changes
in the wage scale for iron mills asked by
the manufacturers.

equitably between the several principal
agencies les in IN the city; 1t was estimated TED
cost of the building, fixtures and furni-

amount too small, but all were anxious
to have the resolution carried because
they wanted to dodge the swarm of in

the letting of the business.

A UNIVERSAL FOOD.
Following Natures Footsteps.

81 have a boy, two years old, weigh
ing forty pounds and in perfect health
who has been raised on Grape-Nuts
and milk.
This is an ideal food and evidently
furnishes the elements necessary for a
baby as well as for adults We have
used Grape-Nuts in large quantities
and greatly to our advantage" F. w
Leavftt, Minneapolis, MINI.
One advantage about Grape-Nuts
Food is that it is pre-digested in the
process of manufacture; that is, the
starch contained in the wheat and bar
ley is transformed into grape sugar in
exactly the same method as this pro-
cess is carried out in the human body
that is by the use of moisture and long
exposure to moderate warmth which
grows the diastase in the grains and
makes the remarkable change from
starch to grape sugar. Therefore. the
most delicate stomach can handle
Grape-Nuts and the food is quickly alb
sorbed into the blood and tissue, certain
parts of it going directly to building
and nourishing the brain and nerve
centers

Street Railway Complaint

The street car company complained to
the police today that the small colored
boys were giving them great deal of
trouble at Garfield park in the evenings.
The boys gather in crowds and board
the cars and when the conductor at
temptS to collect fare they run from one
side of the cars to the other. They run
around the cars and cross the track
ahead of the trains and do everything
possible to annoy the train men. Last
night an officer went out there and
caught two of the boys, Frank High
tower and J. l. Love. They will be
tried in police court this afternoon.
