PREPARATIONS
TO ENTERTAIN GUESTS

Chicago, August 23.-Judge c. J.
Garvin. chairman OF the executive
committee Of the Trans. Mississippi
Commercial Congress. in an interview
here today. said
The next Congress. which will he
held in Seattle In 1898 will be one Of
the most interesting sessions ever held
by the Trans.Nlississlppi Congress. All
matters will be eliminated from the
discussions at the Congress except
such matters as the misunderstanding
region is directly interested in.
The Congress has accomplished
much in the past in presenting and
pushing Legislation as far as that re-
gion Is concerned. but the time is now
| ripe for the united and concerted ac-
ton OF all interested, that We may not
only have such legislation as the re.
gion needs, but also that We may let
the country at large know OF our re-.
sources and possibilities.
The people Of Seattle have given
the executive committee every assur
anCe that the delegates TO the Congress
will be suitably entertained, even go
ing so far as to tender the charter Of
( steamer to visit Alaskan points, and
give them an opportunity OF seeing for
themselves the vast wealth Of that
Territory.
The Congress from this time forth
will take still more active part in
pushing the claims OF the West for
governmental action, and putting be-
fore the public advantages and re
sources Of that vast region
"One of the most important matters
discussed and passed upon favorably
by the Congress was the recommends.
tion to the National Congress looking
to the opening up Of waterway con
meeting the Great Lakes with the Gulf,
the improvement OF the Illinois and
Mississippi rivers so that this can be
accomplished. The benefit TO the Mis-
sissippi valley and the Middle West OF
this project is beyond computation.
The drainage canal is the initiative
link in this connective chain, and 70
Chicago is due the credit of demon.
strating that the undertaking is not
only possible, but practicable"

ONLY ONE.

Professor Hall, the noted psyChoI0
si't and president OF Clark University
tells the following story Illustrative
OF Tn" Childlilie faith and Credullty Of
the negro.
II appears that Professor Hail. by
invitation. visited negro church. The
preacher was most earnest and i'm
presstyc in his culoges OF the Baptis,
religion lie was bent on Installing In
the minds Of the members OF his doch
tue idea that the Baptist religion was
the only religion.
With the recital of each virtue %,
that denomination he waXrd more elO.
Gurnt Finally, leaning forward and
with Dated breath, he closed with this
IprcIbIe argument:
brethren and sistern, now tell YOU
why do Baptist religion am dc best.
First, because it. am; second. because
6rre amt no odder religion and third.
". and lastly with emphasis. my
brethren, 1t am de only religion be.
cause 1t am entered according to de
act OF Congress-"
This last assertion aroused and i'm.
Pressed his congregation completely.
But It somewhat astonishcd Professor
Hall who found later upon Inquiry that
the minister justified his declaration
by the fact that on Baptist tract that
had found It's way into his hands We're
the customary words "Euorei accord.

John Wise's Open Letter
To Ex-senator ThurSton

Editor Evening Bulletin:--Wnl you
please allow me space in your valu
able paper for the following open let.
ter:
Senator John NJ. Thurston.
Dear Sir
Deeming this the best way
II answering two questions which you
rotessed in your speech last Saturday
voning. August 80. 1902. you were ig
rorant Of; first, you did not know Of
Iur local political affairs; and. sec
md. II seemed strange to you the Ha
Eaiian people did not turn Republic
ms. take the liberty to answer these
questions for you from the standpoint
" Hawaiian in an open letter, that
you may have the opportunity to find
out Tor Yourself whether the state
m"nts that make be facts or not. The
Information invited by your first state
ment above quoted, together with the
reason why the people here have not
turned Republicans, can best be given
YOU by a brief history OF this Terri
tory from January. 1898. to date.
Two Weeks of Hawaiian History. Ct
written by a namesake of yours in
February, 1898. together with the cor
respondence between the State Depart
ment Of the United States and Minis
ter Steven, its duly accredited Minis
ter TO Hawaii, will give you correct
view OF local conditions at that time
from the standpoint Of the Annexation
lists.
leave criticism Of the initiative thus
taken to the report made by Commits
Siun"r BlUunt. an American citizen
who was sent here to investigate these
matters, which report is among the
public documents at Washington: its
contents can be verified by any liza
waiian you may seek to interview
while among us.
In August, 1898. the Newlands Res
'olutiOn OF Annexation came into effect
and on June ~, 1900. the Act OF Con
grcss creating out OF these Islands the
Territory Of Hawaii. went into effect
thus closing a period OF wretchcdncss
misery and degradation for the Ha-
waiiau nation, hard 10 beat In the eX
perienCes OF civilized communities.
When you made reference in your
address to that immortal document
the Declaration OF independence, the
perienCes OF the forefathers OF the Re
public. our own experiences had been
during the seven years of usurpatiOn
on almost any day OF which you might
have written "Liberty-what crimes
are committed in thy name" came
to mind.
In order that you may fully under
stand the enormity and baseness Ol
this conspiracy against an innocent
and law.abiding people, refer TO the
last election returns under the Mon
archy, the election returns for the
constitutional convention called to
frame a constitution for the Republic
~ Of Hawaii, the elections during the
succeeding years hereunder and again
the first election under Territorial con.
ditiOns, when our rights had been re.
stored.
In studying the figures. remember
that during the entire period of our
Acknowledgement the Islands wcro
practically under military rule that
the scum Of the universe, stranded
here, were enlisted in the ranks OF the
Provisional Government and Republic
aforesaid, and for this reason were
given the right to vote upon taking the
oath OF allegiance.
The period covered by this intrudo
was Iraught with all manner of hard.

No Relief as to the Congestion
l.of Railway Traffic and No
Immediate Prospects.
RAIL WAY EARNINGS INCREASING
Orders Coming Forward For Iron and
Steel Products and Producers Ask.
ing Premiums For Early Delivery.
Much Structural Material Required.

New York, Nov. pr. G: DUN &
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade, issued
today says in part:
Voluntary increases in wages 5y
some Of the largest railway systems
in the county bear eloquent testi-
mony to tho amount Of business
handled in the past and emphasize
the confidence of officials in continued
heavy traffic. Moreover, by this ad-
ditfon Of large sums to the purchas-
ing power Of railway employees there
is assurance Of larger demand for
all staple lines Of merchandise. Tenn
poraSily sales of seasonable lines OF
wearing apparel are retarded by mild
weather, but this loss will be fully
made up when low temperature be.
comes general. Preparations for hol-
iday trade are on an unprecedented
scale, especially at interior points.
There IS no relief as to the conges-
ton Of railway trafice, nor any i'm
mediate prospect of free movements
at the points of most serious block
ade. Coal freight is steadily gaining,
and all railway earnings thus far re-
ported for November exceed last
years by So per cent and those Of
, 1900 by 1879 per cent.
Orders are now coming forward for
iron and steel products that have
been held back many months in eX-
pectation Of an easier market. Instea |
of making concessions, however, pro-
ducers ask premiums for early deliv-
cry and hesitate to accept contracts
where material and fuel are not III
sight. No relief is reported as to the
movement Of coke, nor is any antici-
pated for some time to come; in fact,
one authority suggests that the situa-
ton will not be normal before April.
Imports relieve some departments OF
the industry. Plans for constructive
work are now increasing. and very
large tonnage Of structural material
will be required. AS the present con.
gestion is due to inadequate faCili-
ties, the most importunate inquiry is
for railway equipment. Activity is
notable at works making agricultural
implements, BOLTS and kindred lines.
Recent reductions in prices of a few
of the lighter forms stimulated deal
,ings to fair degree. Silver bullion
declined to the lowest price on rec
ord, and copper and tin also receded
from former quotations. London was
a conspicuous factor in these changes.
Heavy lines of dry goods need the
stimulus Of cold weather.
Failures FOR the week numbered 266
in the United States, against 21S last
year, and "a in Canada, compared
with 81 a year ago.
