| has been continuous and in one department
| of the government during so long period
is the highest proof 1t has been eminently

| it has been made possible and successful
| by a temperate, moral and upright life,
| coupled with ability and intelligence.

MEET AND CONFER,
Railway officials and Coal Operators
Discuss Rates and Adjourn.

The conference between the officials Of
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Com
pany and the coal operators in the New
River region, which was held at the Raj
eigh Hotel. adjourned late yesterday after
noon. Both sides claim to be satisfied with
the results, but there is a difference Of
opinion on some points. The western traffic
was discussed at considerable length. At
the conclusion Of the meeting the railroad
officials claimed that an agreement had
been reached under which the ruinous COM
petition that has existed between various
operators involving cut prices and other
means of obtaining business, will be dis
continued, and uniform price on each Of
the various grades Of the output MAIN
tanned. The operators. however. claim that
no definite agreement was reached, and
that each operator Is left free to act as he
deems best. 1t was pointed out that the
antitrust law prevented any agreement
on prices between the operators.
An agreement was. reached to continue
the coal-selling agencies throughout the
method of selling the product there but
there will be no unihcation of interests in
the agencies. Main agencies Of each opera
tor will remain In Chicago and Cincinnati
Subagencies will be increased throughout
the west, but each agent will represent in
dividual interests. The need. however, Of
maintaining such price as would best
and some assurance given that this would
be done in the interest Of pushing the out
put into more extended markets In the
west. With the possible exception Of one
operator, it was decided that the entire
output Of the New River region going east
ward, both for inland and tidewater points,
will be handled through one company
Committees from the road and the opera
tors held several meetings. President Ste
vens, General Manager Doyle General Su-
perintendent Gill, Traffic Manager Whitta-

When Joseph Aea was named for
West Point, the Advertiser advised him,
In case he went East, to buy a return
ticket. 1t now appears that Mr.. Aea
failed to pass the examination in Eng
lish, whereupon Delegate Wilcox has
named another young Hawaiian, E. V.
Richardson for the place. The chances
are ten, to one that something untoward
will also happen to him. In such event
we hope that Delegate Wilcox will have
the good sense to open competitive ex-
animation to which all corners of suit
able asa and legal residence may be
welcome. That is the custom elsewhere
and it is the only one which gives much
promise of getting youth who can sur
mount the West Point obstacles.

The appearance of small pox at Lihue
plantation is a serious matter, and one
that warrants the Board of Health in
taking drastic measures to protect not
only the uninfected people on Kauai,
but the inhabitants of the other islands.
With over $4,000 Asiatics and some 3d.
900 natives in the group, we have a
population that small pox would NOW
down as with a scythe. Whatever in
convenience quarantine matters may
involve, it should be cheerfu1ly accept
ed by the people. Better the plague it
self than a small pox epidemic, so far
as public mortality is concerned.

1t is the misfortune of newspapers
that cannot agree with every measure
proposed by social reformers to have
their motives questioned. Elsewhere
Mr.. Theodore Richards ventures the re-
mark that extensive liquor ads" may
have kept the press of Honolulu from
supporting the Dispensary bill. In
point of fact, the liquor interest does
but little advertising. the income from
its trade announcements being in the
aggregate less than the newspaper SUBJ
scriptions of the friends of the Dispen-
sary bill would total. So far as the
Advertiser is concerned the question of
business does not intrude upon its edi-
torial policy AS much might nave
been inferred from its battle with the
pl11mbing trust ana its recent criticism
of the real estate boom. in which some
of its best advertisers are vitality m
terested. The Dispensary bill did not
