Annis lost no time in expressing a

PRESIDENT AND PEOPLE.

The deadlock between the anthra-
cite miners and the operators makes
the fact clear that in a government of
the people there are many things
which a President is expected to do,
and some Of which it would be well for
. the country if he were able to do, that
he has no power under the law to per-
form. When the representatives of
the strikers and the employers met in
Washington President Roosevelt in
formed them that he would say moth
Ing about the questions in dispute, and
that he spoke for neither Of those in
tarests, but for the general public.
Moreover, he said, II disclaim any
right or duty to intervene in this way
upon legal grounds, or upon any Of
fetal relations which | bear to the sit
uation; but the urgency and the terri
bic nature of the catastrophe impend-
ing over a large portion of our people
in the shape of winter fuel famine
impel me, after much anxious thought,
to believe that my duty requires me to
use whatever influence I personally
can to bring to an end situation
which has become literally intoler-
able"
There are millions of people in the
United States who in the present ext
gency, would be glad if the President
had been endowed with power to inter
yene and compel the warning interests
to come to some sort Of a modus
yivendi, so that coal could be mined,
prices be reduced and the suffering
which is impending might be ayerted.
The President has no such authority
under the law, however. Under our
scheme of government enterprise is
unshackled, personal liberty is assert
ed and protected, and neither the law
makers nor the executive have any
right to interfere with either except
when either infringes on the personal
rights of other members of the
community.

A BAD BREAK.
community

The plank Of the New York Demo
cratic platform declaring for national
ownership and operation Of the anthra-
cite coal mines is naturally a subject
of general discussion. The New York
newspapers are almost unanimous in
declaring against such an exhibition of
Socialism OF demagogy. The World
says it is an inconsiderate and hasty
utterance, rejecting the just public in
dignation at the national menace to a
coal famine. The crisis, though acute
and alarming at the moment, must be
transitory one, and does not warrant
the invocation of so radical and revo-
Iutionary a remedy as State Socialism.
Under present conditions Government
ownership of mines and railroads
would mean an enormous enlargement
of boss control in politics, and the ag-
gravation Of all the public evils and
dangers that go herewith. Mr. Hills
blue pencil should have cancelled this
too impulsive response to the eXas-
perated public feeling of the hour -

JUDGE GAMBLER GRATEFUL.

Judge John S. Gambler has written
a number Of letters here in thanking
the people of the city for their sup
port on election day, and makes espec-
ial mention of the vote which he re-
ceived in the Third district, for which
he thanks The Times Recorder and
his friends. Judge Gambler desires it
to be understood that he is grateful to
his friends for the splendid vote they
gave him.

Jealousy is disease, according to
an eminent French doctor. It is in
termittent, like chiIls and fever, and
may be as successfully treated medi-
cally as those ailments are. The sue
cessful course of treatment, he says,
must include those things that give
strength and self-confidence to the pa
tient. It seems, therefore, that the
time is coming when the jealous hus-
band or wife will be told, 90, go and
take a pill. and you will forget all
about it. And thus heart burnings
and tragedies may be saved.

dition is given as IS. In Alabama, ac-

mates are made. Cotton has undoubt-
edly been injured recently.

The Morley Recital.

The Morley recital at the New As
sembIy Hall, Punahou College, proved
a musical in every sense OF the word.
This was really Mr.. Morleys first pub
tic recital in Honolulu and those that
were not fortunate enough to attend
truly have much to regret. The rain,
no doubr,N was great handicap, but
when we stop to think how few artists
of Mr.. Morley's standing we have the
pleasure of hearing in this music
starved city Of ours, the rain should
not be considered for a moment The
program was one to please the most
critical, and it was rendered in a fault
less manner from first to last. Mr..
Morley had flattering reception and
each number was received with en-
thusiasm, his encores were dainty and
showed good taste in selection. His
strongest number was the (S) Rhapso-
die by List, in which he displayed
wonderful power which worked in har-
mony with his faultless technique. Mr..
Arthur Hahn assisted Mr.. Morley, and
proved himself to be a bass soloist of
wonderful range. His numbers were
pleasing Mrs. Tenney Peck did the
accompanying. She is true artist
and a great help to any program that
calls for an accompanist.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Morley will ap-
pear in the opera house the coming
week, but as yet no arrangements have
been made

BANkRUPTS
must PAY
The Territorial Dues
Are First, Says
EStee.

Judge Estee reiterated the principle
yesterday that discharges in bankrupt
cy do not release the bankrupt from
the payment of Territorial taxes. In
the case of Tan Wo of Hanapepe, Kau-
al, the court granted discharge with
warning to the trustee that all taxes
should first be paid, as the discharge
did not effect a release from such debts.
The bankrupt was on the stand and
testified that all the property owned by
him was his store and contents at Ha-
napepe which were worth $1,000 His
liabilities amounted to $4,000 and the
witness said that business was so bad
that he did not find it worth while
keeping his store open. He said he was
unable to state the amount of his
taxes.
The petitioner will be adjudged a
bankrupt" said Judge Estee, land the
court will instruct the referee, and the
trustee when he is appointed that he
must Immediately cause to be martialed
sufficient assets to pay the taxes. for
they must be paid first" The court
can declare bankrupt, except as to
taxes due the Territory. All taxes must
be paid first A few days ago the court.
upon discharging the referee in the
case of j. A. Butterfield, found that
there were but thirty-one dollars to pay
taxes of over 5000, and 1 don't want
that to happen again."

Pennsylvania EIndictment Against
 Dr. Evans of Phoenix.

The grand jury of Allegheny county, Pcn1a., has indicted Dr. J. NJ. Evans of Phoenix. Dr. Evans says he is not Interested in the proceedings Of the grand jury of Allegheny county or the gland jury of any other county in Pennsylvania any more than he is in the, proceedings of the grand jury Of Timbuctoo. He is not at present in the state Of Pennsylvania and he is not in Q condition of i'll health which requires him to cross the line. He has come out victorious in the phase of his case which has been monOpolizing the time of the courts at Youngstown, Q. The warrant for his e1tradition has been held to be invalid and he has been ad- luitted to bail.
 it is nine weeks since the authorities Of the state oi Pennsylvania began trying to get hold cf him. The irdict- ment will rot bring him any nearer to the smoky, and at this time of the year, the particularly disasreeable town of Pittsburg. the stronghold Of his enem- ies. The indictment covers practically the same ground that the original com plaint against him did. He is charged with larceny and false pretense in connection with the affairs of the Key stone Copper and Gold Mining com pany.
 The Youngstown attorney Of the doc tor intimates that he is getting tired cf the monOtony of the complaint of tne PittsbUrg parties; he wishes they could think of something new tc com plain about. Having spent the fall in he discussion of this larceny and ;alse pretense story he would like change in the bill of litigious fare for the win ter.
 Of the indictment he says; We are rot surprised by this indictment, as it was expected. But there is one thing the Pittsburg parties must do before they convict Dr. Evans of thls charge. and that is they must get him."
