Mr.. SUMMERS SIDE.


Honolulu, December IA, 1902.
Editor Advertiser In Saturdays
Star an article appeared headed Sum
ner and the Bishop" in which A. s.
Humphreys, who appears for the So
called Sumner heirs, objects to the mo-
ton of j. K. Sumner before the court
in that case, because Bishop Gulstan
was unable to testify on account OF
sickness. The so-calIed Sumner heirs
have no legal claim on J. K. Sumner,
nor has anyone else, as ]. K. has no
heirs, as ne has voluntarily given away
as presents $4,000 of his money to his
kin, and $4,000 to charity, they having
no just or legal claims by law against
him while he lives, as he has been de-
clared sane by the highest tribunals in
the land. The so-called Sumner heirs
are third-degree blood relations to j.
K. sumner. j. K. Summers nearest kin
is his sister Mrs. Maria S. Davis and
her son, r. w. Davis, who have signed
in court, also satisfactorily to j. X.
| Sumner, all claims against him, j. K.
Sumner, or his, j. X. Summers, estate,
he having no will in existence or docu-
ments signed which would lead to any
question.
AS far as Bishop GuIstan is concerned
mis- evidence is of no Importance from
the fact that he cancelled the 0ocu-
ments, as trustee, appertaining, to his
guardianship of j. K. Sumner, and it
is well Cor the public to note the fact
that if the Bishop held any power of
guardianship over ]. K. Sumner or his
estate. why did he voluntarily suTren-
der the viii and also turn the money
ever to J. K. Sumner and allow ]. X.
Sumner to use the same money as he
felt disposed. This shows that Bishop
Gulstan felt and knew that j. K. sum
ner was sane, and, as a just and good
Christian man, the Bishop respected
the law and rendered unto J. K sum
ner that which rightly belonged TO j.
X. sumner. The question of Bishop
Gulstan's appearance in court or his
evidence on any written affidavits has
nothing to do with the holding of J. K.
Summers money, as he gave it up. The
only question in which he, the Bishop,
is needed is to state that he is not the
petitioner in the case and that Sumner
is the petitioner and not the Bishop.
The whole case is simply one of those
affairs which are created by estate
wreckers, plunderers, eStortionists and
vampires, who work under the cloak of
the law.
The weakness of the contestants, the
so-calIed Sumner heirs, has shown itself
in many cases and particularly in the
running away of two of them, W. S.
Ellis and J. K. Ellis on the steamship
Peru, after having been duly served
with a subpoena by an officer of the
law, thus being guilty of contempt of
court. furnishing prima facie evidence
of an attempt to clog the wheels of
Justice and preventing j. X. Sumner
getting what is rightfully his.

BIRDsALLs PECULIAR LETTER.

Al last the people Of the United States are made
familiar with the for the muudlnous monspo-
lies that have sprung into being during the Mckinley
and Roosevelt administrations We are Informed by
Judge p. b 1rdsa candidate for Congress in Speak
er Hendersons district that trusts combines are
born. of the protective policy OF the Republican
party. hut of the greed and selhshDess OF men,"
Voters OF the Third Congressional District Of Iowa
will not be able understand. with any degree OF
clearness how Judge BirdsaH intends or expects TO
suppress control monopoes. it, he states in ais
letter accepting The nomination, he firmly believes that
the! born of the greed aud selfshness of men"
Judge Birsall holds forth little hope to his const-
that he would do any more to abolish and control
HcncpoIies than would Mark Hanna, or Speaker Hen
derson both OF whom pronounced protectionists
What the Third District voters think of a state
merit such as this made by the political opponent Of
Governor Boies? Virtually Judge Birdsal de-
clsres that trusts cannot be prevented or held In
check. Contrast his views with those Of Governor
Boies who comes frankly with the causes Of the
formation Of commercial combines and vigorously sub
mits why the tariff rates which undoubtedly
faoIlate the birth of monOpolIes should be corrected
Judge BrdsaFs letter of acceptance is an effort 10
conciliste the opposing factions in the Republican
party OF Iowa. It is effort to merge the Iowa plat
fora with the Republican national policy to make the
Iowa tari-revison provision agree with the Republic
an raTiys IOnglive-thetrust doctrines and laws The
letter presents Judge Brdsa in the attitude of en-
eavong to please all in order to be elected and
to defer an open break in his party.
To some extent Judge Birdsal differs from Senator
Hanna. He admits that there are trusts while aIr
HuLna does not. In far he admits the existence
of monopolies Judge Brdsall is right as all voters
Of Iowa know. With the Democrats OF Iowa active
aIfagonsm trusts and demanding tariff revision
AID the Republicans leaning the same way Judge
BrdsaH in position that compelled admission of
the existence Of monopolies
The statement that the trusts born mot Of the
protective policy of the Republican party but OF the
greed and selhshness of men" reads very much like
prerlc attempt TO stradde question of supreme I'M
The St. Louis Republic., 1902-10-03

portance Translated into everyday language the
statement reads: Trusts exist but they cannot be
controlled TheS are natural"
Yet Judge Birdsall proceeds TO say that the Re
puicans Of Iowa believe in the greatest good to the
greatest number and Will permit the policy Of pro-
lection become shield for the greed and avariee OF
man. Whenever trusts become oppressive he be
eves they should he regulated by reciprocity meas
urcS.
Here, In Judge Birdsalrs letter the voters of the
Third District have the weak presentment OF theories
thar startled citizens in other districts where the tariff
revision wave has spread. He says that there are
that trusts are under certain conditions detri
mental public interests that they caused by hui
passions and frpltics; that the high protective
;are not responsible for them that they should be
suppressed; that they should be suppressed or regli
lated by notifications in tariff rates that neverthe
less the policy Of protection should stu be pursued
.r6se BirasaIrs letter makes it plain that The high
protective tarr has assisted in the formation of com
bncs and does facilitate their operation Were this not
Tie ease from the Iowa standpoint he would not pr-
in fsvor Of revision of the tariff To prevent the
trusts from using the policy OF protection as a
shield
From day TO day it becomes more apparent that
tho high protective tariff is agency agreeable to
monopoiies Republican odiceseekeFs are forced by
their constituents TO acknowledge the power afforded
trusts 10y the Dngley tariT and the methods used to
hide and facts only have the effect Of plac
