The tramp sank his spade deep in the

ened up and listened for a moment. His
mouth slightly parted; his lips half closed
lie crept nearer the window and leaned
on the spade. For fully ten minutes he
scarcely moved. y dark scowl crossed
his face and fingered there.
The tramp was tattcrcd and torn. and
his face was intlamcd, and his eyes were
bleary. but there was still a heart be

heart had been won by kindness
When he came limping up to the farm

looked at him aSkancc, and the farmers
dog had blinkcd up at his master as if

down the lane.
And then the farmers wife had come
TO the door, Il gentle faced woman with u
soft voice. and she listened to his story
and brought him bread and meat and told
lim to rest in the shade of the applr tree.
And somehow the gentle faced woman re-

BETTER POST SERVICE
DELEGATE WILCOX TALKS
WITH the DEPARTMENTS
Still at Work to Secure Proper SOlu-
ton Of Land Question --Sugges-
ton Made by Secretary
Hitchcock.
Especial Correspondence

Washington. ID c.. June 1.-Delegate
Wilcox has been Washington Tor
several days. but because of the alb
sence of the President and his Cabi-
net. up to Thursday, he has given lit
tie attention to Hawaiian matters.
Immediately upon the return of the
Secretary Of the Interior, Mr.. Wilcox
called and suggested the advisability
of sending a commission to Hawaii to
study the land situation and report tho
outlines Of a law to be on hand when
Congress convenes in December. II Is
understood that inasmuch as the de.
partment has no funds available with
which to defray the expenses Of such
commission, that the examination
cannot be made. The course pointed
out by the Secretary is for Mr.. wilcox
to interest a number Of Senators apd
Representatives. and with their aid,
secure a special appropriation at the
next session Of Congress to pay the
expenses Of an adequate commission.
and also to define their duties and point
out Just what features shall be studied.
with view to remedying defects and
shortcomings.
Mr.. Wilcox has called the attention
of the Postoffice Department to the fact
that Honolulu is not receiving as salts
factory service as should be accorded
an Office of its size. He thinks postal
inspector should be sent to the Isl.
ands to make general tour Of inspec-
ton and report. In so far as the SER
vice in Honolulu is concerned, 1t is
understood the department will confer
with the postmaster, and have such
changes made as are permissible under
the funds available, and the force now
in hand.

CONSIDERATIONS TALKING.

Details of the Thurstonian conspiracy
to Gust Judge Humphreys are con-
stantly being told by the overjoyous
participants who seem to think that
their fight is won by virtue Of the
thirty-seven votes secured from the
clerical force Of the lawyers cited for
contempt and employees of the Attorney
Generals department. The conspira-
ators say they are mot hunting ducks
with a brass band" They are, how.
ever, tumbling over each other to talk
with their mouths, to boast Of their
accomplishments and set forth the mo-
tives prompting their strenuous effort.
While the committee of the thirty
seven voters of the Bar Association Is
busy preparing charges" against
Judge Humphreys, while Thurston and
Hartwell are employing stenographers
by the day TO put down what they
know, facts are constantly being re-
corded showing beyond the question Of
q doubt that the attack upon Judge
Humphreys had its source in personal
malicious spite, political chicanery
and utter disregard for the integrity OF
the courts in dispensing justice.
The citizens of this Territory have
nothing but supreme contempt for such
methods which are indeed a relic OF the
schemes of former days by which citi-
zens were maligned and browbeaten
coerced and boycotted. The manner
isms OF the conspirators are the same.
The governmental condition under
which the people now live have been
revolutionized. Today the people rule,
There is no higher power within the
Territory and American law in marked
contrast to old Hawaiian Republic laws
protects those rights. Local executive
officers may be part of the con-
spiracy and members Of the bench may
give 1t special recognition, but Fed
eral officials are too well trained in the
ways of American justice to be either
overawed or deceived by band of men
who have demonstrated their inability
to carry two-for-a-cent party pri-
mary, and are consequently forced to
to muster their employees in Bar AS

Judge Humphreys as o political judge
seems to have fallen far below the es'
innate placed upon him by his enemies
mustered under the Thurstonian ban
ner OF conspiracy. From a political
standpoint it certainly would appear TO
have been highly advantageous for
Judge Humphreys to have made a place
for the friend of the special agent OF
the Planters Association. Was 1t be.
cause of the judges failure to take ad-
vantage of such political opportunities
that the conspiracy was brought into
active being?

VERDICT AGAINST sPuRLock.
Jury wrestles All Night With a Real
Estate Deal.

In the district cour to-day in the
case of Isaac H. Colwell VS.. w. NJ.
Spurlock, the jury after an all-night
session returned a verdict in favor
Of the plaintiff for 5000 with interest
and costs.
The case of w. S. Hunter against
W. NJ. Spurlock to recover $500 alleg-
ed to be due him on a real estate deal,
is still in the hands of jury.
This is dispute over the commits
sion for selling real estate. Hunter
claims that Spurlock was to sell the
property at the corner OF Capitol
boulevard and Cleveland avenue for
certain commission. and that in
stead of selling it Tor $4,000 to Mrs.
Emaline Pogue, the purchase price
was s2,5Oe. Hunter sues 10 recover
the extra $500. On the contrary Spur
lock claims ne was to sell the place at
Hunters figures of $4,000 and his
commission was TO be all over and
above that figure. Hunters attorneys
are Dale & Biertr, while Green &
Green again represent Spurlock.
In the Colwell case in which the
defendant secured a verdict it was
alleged that Spurlock entered into a
contract with ColwelI 10 sell his farm
for a certain per cent commission. He
sold the farm to William S. Bergen
and in the settlement afterward be
tween Colwell and spurlock, the two
could not agree on the amount of the
commission and the case in court re
suited. ColwelI demanding judgment
against spurlock for $3.50 with seven
per cent interest from October I. 1900.
Green & Green are the attorneys for
spuriock. and Engert & Herod for the
plaintiff.
