THE sANDBAGGER RAMPANT.
Honolulu Republican,

l1OHOlulu NepuullSdH'l
The sandbag was featured In yester-
days editorial column of the Adver-
tiser. gunny sack was stuffed with
figures and swung from ambush TO hit
the heads of passengers who were
vainly sized up as "unsuspecting." But
the rufIian's weapon missed its mark
every time with the result that his
own head aches today from the impact
Of the thing on completing its circuit.
1t appears that the company own
ing the Advertiser maintains on its
payroll a huckster who deals In vari-
Gus descriptions OF iced swill, also pre-
tends to be general news agent ION
the side" his place OF business being
corner Of the freight room OF the
Oahu railways terminal station. Quite
likely this merchant, from his connec-
ton with the paper mentioned, has
received notice to take away his pres.
ence from the station precincts on ac-
count OF the villainous fake perpetrat-
ed on the company last Monday. In
such case, 1t would become necessary

late. Therefore he is made to pose as
authority for a statement Of sales
circulation of some OF abe local papers
upon the railway line. That any state.
ment of the kind, involving divulg-
ence Of the private business of prin-
cipals by common agent, should be
made exposes the true inwardness of
the sandbagging assault right away.
The indecent attack upon the chief
news agents Of the town. because they
decline to give away the affairs OF
their clients in like manner, is sim
ply corroborative evidence Of the fact
that the railway news agent Is con-
Quoting his business under false coll
ors--that he Is not a general news
agent, but a stipendiary of the Adver-
tiser paid to destroy instead of pro-
mote the business intrusted to him by
the rivals Of that paper. That is, the
public is given the evidence already
| familiar TO the legitimate newspaper
publishing trade Of Honolulu.
The Republican, that is given q
comparatively insignificant figure by
the creature has long since ceased tu
give him business beyond what he begs
to save his name with the public, by
making a pretence Of meeting calls fol
different papers impartially. Ths
Bulletin has already shown, in cold
arithmetic, that despite the creatures
efforts to retard its circulation in favor
OF the Star, the old standard after
noon paper-pioneer Of daily journal
ism in Honolulu-has been adyanc'
ing by leaps and bounds in public pa
tronage, leaving either and both of Tho
organs" far in the rear. This |.
equally true Of the Republican as
compared with the Doodle and sloggel
guild OF local journalism. The Sun

THE SUGAR CONSPIRACY.
Oakland Tribune.1

The suggestion of the president of
.hl Sugar Trust that the duty on raw
sugar be abolished can only be de-
scribed as cool piece of audacity. It

sugar industry Of the United States

NO SOLDIER PUT TO DEATH
The President, in Every Case Since the Be
ginning OF the Spanish War, Has
Used Executive Clemency.

Washington, Jan. 21.-At the war
department the statement was made
Saturday that no soldier of the United
States since the beginning of the
Spanish-American war has suffered
the death penalty for either military
or criminal offenses. This news will
cause surprise in view of the general
impression that several military
deaths of soldiers who had committed
crimes had occurred in the Philip
pines. It is true that in many cases
soldiers have been convicted by court
martial and sentenced to death, but
in every instance the president has
extended clemency. This has not met
with the approval of the war depart
ment, where the idea prevails that
good discipline requires punishment
at times, but the president in each
incident has found cause for saving
the lives of the convicted soldiers
and probably will continue that pol
icy until some case of a particularly
atrocioIs character arises.

Atlanta, Ca, Jan. >21.-N. n. Frazer.

Bass, was kidnapped several weeks ago
while student at the chronological
school here, has apparently lost $500

he offered for his son, in a sack with
a peck of potatoes and proceed along
the road near the United States fed

city, he would be met by a negro who
would ask for the potatoes. Mr.. Fra
zer's son, a brother Of the kidnapped
boy, carried out the plan of the let

gave him the money and potatoes
Saturday night. Yesterday morning
he was at the hotel mentioned and he
remained there all day, but Bass Fra
ger has not appeared and no trace
of him or the persons who received
the $500 can be found.

that she gets it.

MINISTER wu,s OPINION.
chinese Minister Talks About Lynching as
Leavenworth = Believes Whites and
Blacks Should Intermarry.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 21.-Wu Ting
Fang the Chinese minister, while on
his way to ST. Louis, was interviewed
here concerning the recent lynching
at Leavenworth, Kan. He said:
what do think of lynching? Well,
that is strictly an American institu-
ton. China has been accused of many
barbarities, but lynching is not one
OF them. Burning that poor fellow in
Leavenworth at the stale-ughi the
very idea makes me shudder. And he
died protesting his innocence. Guilty
men don't do that. But I don't I'M
derstand it all. You brought the
black man here against his will. You
made him free, or the great Lincoln
did. Then you declared him equal to
the white man, but you denied him
equality. He cannot hold office-that
is, you seldom elect him to one. He
can't serve on a jury, although he has
the right. and he. is still a slave, So
cially.
"The difficulty seems to me that
you regard him as a savage and treat
him as such. He feels himself an out
law and acts accordingly. Now, why
not assimilate him benevolently?
There is only one way to do this, and
that is to make him white, not only
in color, but in, nature. I have not
given the subject extensive study, but
would say encourage the negro men
to marry white women and urge ne
gro women to marry white men,"

Church Growth i'm . Century

The growth in population of the
United States from 1901 to 1901 was
almost exactly thirteenfold. It would
appear that the proportion of church
members to population in 1900 was
about 1 in 20. Church membership
would seem. therefore, to have beaten
the population growth by about four
fold. This is conservative figuring.
II the rather loose counting of some
religious bodies Of our day be ac-
cepted, the church membership gain
over the population gain during the
eantuxy II about sixfold.

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf. of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January. 1899. saying
her daughter had suffered for9two
years with irregular menstruation-.
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-

BRITAIN WILL NOT AGREE
State Department Advised That Hay
Pauncefote Treaty VIII BE Returned with
Objectionable Amendments Added.

Washington, Jan. 21.-The expec-
tation here is that the British govern
ment will return the amended Hay
Pauncefote treaty with amendments
of it's own, and it is not expected that
these British amendments will be &C
ceptable to the United States senate.
Whether or not this expectation is
based on advices from NJ Choate or
communications from Lord Paunce-
fote, it is not possible to determine.
In either case the communications
must necessarily have been informal
in advance of the action of the British
government itself on the treaty.

VICTORIA VERY LOW.
The Aged Sovereign Of the British
Empire at Deaths Door.
The Queens Condition Due to q Sinking
Spell and an Increase Of the PafalytiC-
Symptoms-Artidcial Means Used
to PrOlOng Her Life.

Cowes, Isle of Wight, Jan. 21.-At
7:45 this morning the queen was still
alive, but all hopes are gone. The
members of the royal family are still
gathered in room adjoining the
queens bed chamber. Her majesty is
unconscious, and the end is expected
at any moment. s
Doubts are expressed as to whether
the prince of Wales and Emperor Will
liam will arrive here before the end.
An enormous crowd of newspaper
representatives and others, with car
lected at the lodge gates waiting in
intense excitement to convey the
news, momentarily expected, that the
queen has breathed her last.
A collapse, or what the physicians
feared was collapse, occurred I'M
expectedly about ten o'clock last
| evening. Arrangements were hur-
riedly made to provide special tele-
phonic and Geographic facilities. De-
tails are not obtainable, but it is as
serted that the queens condition is
chiefly due to severe sinking spell
and an increase of the paralytic symp-
toms. It is understood that the ply
sicians have resorted to artificial
methods to prolong life, such as are
used only in cases of persons in ex-
tremes.
The Associated press learns that
the paralysis is chiefly evident in the
face, one side of which appears to
have lost all nerve and muscular
power. At six o'clock last evening the
malady had not reached the vital or
CANS, although it had naturally
caused an almost total loss of the
power of speech. What was SO much
Jared was that the brain might be
attacked.
Keenly sensitive to her aff1iction
and appearance, the queen has abso-
lutely refused to see anyone but her
nurses and doctors; and it is under
stood that the prince of Wales is the
only exception to this rule, and that
bis interview with the queen lasted
| but few moments. Hence the ex-
| act nature Of the malady is known
only to very few; and it is the royal
wish that the public should not be in
formed of the existence of paralysis.
| Arrangements have been made with
local undertaken to have all the pre-
liminaries to burial ready in case OF
| an emergency.
The departure of the prince OF
Wales for London shortly after II
o'clock, to meet Emperor William, was
quietly accomplished. The queen had
been informed of the kaiser's coming
and had signified her desire that the
prince should go to meet him. Rather
against his will, the man who for the
moment was practically the king OF
England, obeyed his mothers wishes
| A special train left the Victoria sta.
ton for Osborne at eight o'clock this
morning with Emperor William, the
prince of Wales, the duke of York
and the duke of Connaught aboard.
