Tney say that Candidate Dreier is
afraid to get up on the same platform
with Candidate Harris to oppose one
another, for fear that the platform
would topple over in see-saw play
with ,ne Dreier weight and then they
would both be Harrised and very much
missed by having their necks broken
al their families placed in a predica-
ment. For their own good, we hope
that they will not be so foolish, but
rather stay shy of one another unit
the end of the tug-o'war. We would
advise both of them to go slow and
not be too eager, as 1t will be Dreier
after the contest

The Independent wishes it to be
plainly understood that it does not hold
the local Republican party as being
entirely responsible for the idea to dis
franchise the Hawaiians, but it plain
ly asserted the missionary wing of that
party, fathered by the Advertiser. AS
there has been no refutation made of
it from the party, as far as we are
aware of. that party must stand sDon-
sor and bear the hrunt Of it, although
made and much desired by the holy
ones of the missionary crew, who be-
lieve in ruling and running all ever
lastingly to suit their own desires and
motives of governing the country for
the sole benefit of the family com
pact"

That report of the investigation
committee of the Board of Health
about that Lepert Settlement outrage,
which was solely exposed by this paper,
is being awaited with much interest by
the public and is being particularly
watched by The Independent. We say
PARTICULARLY because we have
been already apprised that an attempt
at whitewash will be made, as material
evidences were suppressed, whereby an
official who is supposed to be guilty for
the carelessness will not suffer for his
sins, mind you, OF commission as well
as omission, and that another official
less liable will be made a scapegoat for
others uses. And even II such will be
the outcroppings in this matter, we
hope not to make light of 1t but that
the public will bear us out, for the COM
mittee found it to be only too true and
that it was a hard matter to sidetrack
the facts less than a suppression there
of. Hawaiians, bear this in mind, and
don't forget to press it at the next
Legislature, If the authorities try to
stife it by ignoring 1t half-heartedly.
Here is a good subject for the next
Maui grand jury, to meet in June next
at Lahaina, to take up and investigate
fully. And to the Home Rulers and
Democrats of the Fourth District, this
is good, straight capital to make at this
by-election campaign.

For the information of the public

authoritatively state that the Fire

Dec 10, 1901, of 1895 claims, aud at its
reconvening on March 1S up to April 8,
1902, it has further awarded S5G6

We might have made some harsh
and severe structures in our last issue
upon the youthful Republican aspirant
for political preferment, but we will
here honestly say without being there
to assailed that it was quite uninten-
tional on our part. Far be it from us
to attack our young friend of "robbing
others through stock dealings" al
though he very muchly dabbled in it
and was one of the fortunate ones to
come out at the right end of the horn,
which is deemed in business parlance
as being of credit to him, but of much
detriment and sorrow to the unfortu-
mates.

Ever since the last general election
and during the blockade of the Repub-

that party has been The most high
handed dictator known by us In this
country. Its policy has always been
that of blocking anything and every
thing that came by way Of the Home
Rule party, and they have been some
what successful to certain degree
and measure. Whenever there is any

1t was the impression that in addition
to profit-taking sales and more or less
scattered short selling, the market also

Germ.
The Northwest and Southwest markets
followed ours as soon as the effect of the
selling begun to be felt. Kansas City and
st. Louis received 391 900 bushels of
wheat today. against 10000 bushels for
the corresponding day last year.
The report that France was buying
wheat at the seaboard and here was not
confirmed. New York nevertheless re-
ported 20 boatloads engaged. and Duluth
reported sales of 100000 bushels for
shipment.
There was further leveling down in
prices for corn. Cash and the near
months lost very materially. while the
distant futures lost only slightly. Car
lots were 1G2 cents lower.
The weather was excellent for the
movement for the curing of the new
crop, while the cash demand from ship

cradle selling by local professional spec
Llators of the heavier sort.
The market for oats followed corn and
the market was lower all around. The
cash and near futures, however. were
relatively lower than the more distant
months.
There was considerable selling of De-
cember for the cereal interests, who
have apparently changed their position
on the market IL their persistent selling
of the last week is any indication.
There was firm market in provisions
early on account Of per cent advance
in hogs. which was due to the fact that
receipts were 10000 less than expected.
The market finally gave way. however,
under moderate offerings by packers and
others who were Influenced by the
weakness of grain.
January and May lard were exceptions
to the rule. but it was believed that Oc-
tober lard was coming on sale from one
of the packers.

that there seemed to be no particular
reason for it, or that it seemed to come

1t was rumored that an operator who

market. But as the selling came from
commission houses, professionals, and
from all quarters of the street indis-
