not dependent upon theory TO arrive at this
conclusion. The United States pursue' the plan
Of appointing all judiciary officials; states and
municipalities elect them. The United states
rarely loses a dollar by detaultng treasurers
or controllers; states and cities have lost many
millions. II a United states oficial goes wrong
in his accounts he is soon caught and brought
10 account. An elective official Is all right "
he can make good when he goes out of Office.
Every politician knows this, every business
man knows this, and the charter should be
framed in accordance with the dictates Of COM
mon sense and practical experience, and not In
accordance wit, obsolete theories whose falsity
has been abundsntly demonstrated.

4 CCORDING to the Harrisburg

osity is displayed at the state
capital as 10 the possible benefciaries
of bill presented Wednesday by Rep
rescntativc Beacon to amend the
amendments made two years ago in
the Act of 1874 regulating costs of con-
tested elections. In the amendment of
1893 the Beacon bill makes no change
except the following addition to ex-
empt from its provisions all previously
begun contests: Provided, however,
that in any contest commenced before
the passage of this amendment, liabil-
itv for the costs and the manner in
which and the persons by whom the
same shall be paid, shall be determined
by the law as it stood at the time such
contest was instituted
What benefciaries Representative
Beacon had in mind in introducing
this measure we cannot say. But Il Is
very probable that his bill will have
the enthusiastic support of the numer-
'NS f-Ni'I'lltlo III lsuChdNdtl1ld county
who in late years have been contribute
ing TO the manufacture of election con-
tests in the belief that no matter what
decision was reached the costs would
hnally fall on the county. The Lang
stan-kelly contest, carrying a cost bill
somewhere close to 100000, or enough
TO add several mills to the tax rate of
every payer of county taxes, is still
nending before our courts and IL will
be interesting to note whether there is
any foundation for the rumor in circu.
idtioh mat the costs in this case may
De loaded upon the county. regardless

the term of the contested ofiice-holder

MANILA May 10.-Captain Barrows ap-
peared before the military commission to-
day and gave testimony in regard TO his
connection with the cOmmissary scandals.
! This testimony showed that he exhibited
criminal neglect and ignorance of the rou-
tine duties of his Office in the Commits
sary Department.
He denied that he had profited any by
the transactions and explained that he
was implicated as an unsuspecting go
between. His testimony contradicted that
of Harold Nj. Pitt manager of Evans &
Co. Government contractors, that the
bacon sent by Lieutenant Boyer to Pitt
loan. Captain Barrows said Pitt intended
to sell the bacon. Barrow's case was lit
tie strengthened by his testimony.
Lieutenant Boyer has now been placed
in confinement and this leads to the be-
lief that he will be sentenced to serve a
term of Imprisonment.

sixty millions of dollars to supply all the

American coal could not compete with

1t was intended to make Pauiliac a port
and engineers are now engaged in sound
ing to ascertain whether the channel will
admit vessels of from II 900 to 1900 tons
burden, which will be built in France and
probably run between Baltimore and
Pauillac, making the voyage in fourteen
days.
Freightage is the chief obstacle. 1t now
costs Ii shillings a ton from Baltimore
to Marseilles, but it is hoped to reduce
it by half by taking back to the United
States iron ore from Spanish ports. This
could be disposed OF in Pittsburg and else

Mr. McIlvane is said to have declared
that he could book orders for CC0.C0) tons
of American coal now, but the freight
rates We're prohibitive That would be
remedied before long and a big trade
would be established within three years.
PARIS, May 10.-The British Chamber of
Commerce here has discussed the British

Port tax on coal. 1t was contended that
English coal, despite the tax. would con-

AN EXTRA SESSION CALLED.
Appropriation BiIIs Not Even Intro
duced in Hawaii's Legislature.

HONOLULU, May 4-CVia San Fran
cisco, May lW.-The Territorial Legisla-
ture has adjourned after a fruitless ses-
sion. No attempt was made even to in
troduce appropriation bills. Governor
Dole has accordingly called an extra ses-
sion for May to consider only appro-
priations
Twenty acts We're passed and approved
by the Governor and one was vetoed by
him. but passed over his veto. Of new
laws the only important one provides for
an Income tax Of 2 per cent on all incomes
over 81 0)0 year.
The bill appropriating $250,000 for Queen
LiIiuokalani failed TO become a law be-
cause the Governor did not sign IL. Home
Rule members, just before adjournment,
made strong efforts to induce the Gov
ernor to extend the session, but he re-
fused. In revenge they are now prepar-
ing an engrossed resolution asking Presi-
dent Mckinley to remove Governor Dole.
Native members of the Legislature
showed great antipathy to the whites
during the session and no measure
proposed by white members passed both
houses. All appointments that the ma
tives urged on the Governor were either
of Hawaiians OF half-breeds.

Mfr. Swanson, but believing that a gross
injustice had been perpetrated in the

that the Trade and Labor Council revoke

ters have been opened, and a thorough

ton The Echols people are confident of
