Superintendent Waite's Complaint.

At meeting of the courthouse and city
hall commissioners yesterday, Superin-
tendent Of Police Z. F. Waite objected to
the manner in which the work Of lettering
the doors at police headquarters had been
done. When he took possession of the
new offices he had the signs painted to
suit himself, but afterward the board sub
stituted designs of it's own. The work
was anything but satisfactory. The COM
munication was placed on file.
r. Superintendent Oker was instructed to
provide, the board of education with a
room for it's meetings.

NC MON WAR.

The police record of Ng Mon War, the
Chinaman whom Humphreys of later
anti-Chinese fame made n lawyer of,
prepared the reputable part of the com
munity for protest against his can
didacy for office. But no one thought
him so bad that the Home Rule norni-
nees would not run on the same ticket
with him. A man in that fix must smell
strongly enough to warrant his burial
in lime.
An incident of special note in this
connection is the nature of the defence
made of Ng Mon War by Wilcox, who
assured his hearers that "a Chinaman
was good as a Home Ruler"
Meanwhile the row in the Home Rule
camp goes on with diminishing pros
poets. all the time, that the party will
make anything like its former showing
at the polls.

BONDING.

Who is responsible for the fact that
bonds were not required of the Treas
urer?
Who else but the law-making power?
The Governor could not demand
bonds of an official who was legally
exempt from bonding.
1t was within the sphere of Congress
to put bonding clauses in the Organic
Act but. in the case of the Treasurer,
it did not do so. If the Legislature had
the right to enact a bonding law, it's
neglect to do it is not the fault of the
Governor but of the party which con-
trolled the legislatures party which
accepted no advice or recommendations
from the Executive whatever, and
would have resented a proposal to bond
any Hawaiian.

HENDERSON AND TRUSTS.

IT looks as II Speaker Henderson, roi-

from politics in huff. He wanted the

chose to deal another way, whereupon

At this distance and on this occasion

IL it is true, as one of the experts
say, that the discovery of the North
Pole is mere matter of food en-route,
that interesting event ought not to be
long delayed. 1t will be a matter of
store ships at the landing place farthest
north, of connected stations gradually
extending to the pole and in wireless or
other communication with each other
and with as elaborate a service of
sledges and dogs as that which was
originally put on the Klondike trail.
The past trouble seems to have been
due to a paucity of resources-the use
of one ship, supplies for a couple of
years only and dependence upon a
small company of men. The conquest
of the pole needs an expedition organic
ed like march against an enemy's
stronghold.

OF WIN. H. WRIGHT

William H. Wright, nominated by
Governor Dole to be treasurer of the
Territory of Hawaii, was born at Ko-
Ioa, Kauai, on the 9Th of October, 1869.
He was educated at the public schools
on Kauai, and at Iolani College in this
city.
He was engaged in private business
as a clerk and bookkeeper after gradu-
alton, until 1898, when he was appointed
a clerk in the Tax Office in Honolulu
In 1894 he was appointed to be Deputy
Assessor of the District of Honolulu,
and in 1898, he was appointed Registrar
of Public Accounts, under Mr.. Damon,
then Minister of Finance, which posi-
ton he has continued to hold
Mr.. Wright is a member. OF the
Masonic Order, being Knight TenipIar
and Master in the Hawaiian lodge
He is a Republican in politics. but has
not taken an active part in practical
politics, being of rather retiring dis
position. He had no stronger support
ers for appointment to the position
than Mr.. Damon of Bishops Bank,

dent of the First National Bank, in

The powerful mind of the Independ-
ent has focused itself on the situation
and has penetrated the Wright secret.
It seems that Wright was induced to
go and hide, leaving a confession that
he had stolen public funds, all to en-
able the missionaries" to show that
Hawaiians are not fit to hold public
Office, thereby defeating the city and
county program. After the fell work
mas been done, Wright will return and
show that it was ali mistake. Being

If ginseng could be grown here it
would be a remunerative export. The
Chinese buy it in great quantities and
at high price, paying for curious roots
which sometimes form themselves into
the effigy of man as much as 5000 per
pound. For the average root the price
is or has been about $12 per pound. In
Central New York and Pennsylvania,
where ginseng grows wild, the gather
ers are paid SO per pound, delivered at
New York city. Milkweed root is used
as an adulterant. 1t has been found
very difficult to cultivate the plant,
which accounts for the high prices.
Should it take to our soil and climate
it would beat sugar for profit by sew
eral hundred points and this irrespec-
tive of the fact that ginseng has not
a single valuable quality. Korea pro-
duces enough of it to make the root
one of its chief exports.

WHERE IS WRIGHT?

1t does not appear to this paper as
altogether probable that Mr.. Wright
got away on the Alameda. He seems
to have taken great trouble to identity
himself in the public mind with that
vessel before her departure. He went
to the dock. in, a hack, in broad day
light. and tried to pass gate where
he knew he would be stopped. Then
he got a friend to intercede for him
with the Waterman. On the steamer
wharf he ostentatiously wore his hat
on the side.,of his head and, in the
presence Of Spectators. took the unusu-
al course, of boarding the ship by the
stevedore's gangplank. He seems to
have counted on creating surprise
among the spectators.
When word went around that he was
missing, these facts were easily recalled
and the police searched the ship from
stem to stern without finding Wright
anywhere. So great is our confidence
In the thoroughness of. the police meth
DDS that we are not prepared Ito believe
that Wright was on board. 1t is more
probable that the dock scene was a
ruse, designed to confuse the scent.
II this theory is a fair one, then it
may be inferred that the fugitive treas
urer Is in the hands of his friends,
waiting a chance of exit. In that case
the offer of large reward for infor-
nation leading to his arrest might be
productive.

HAWAIIAN COFFEE.

Hawaii is not alone in the difficulty
of finding market for its coffee in the
United States, as it sold only 227,560
pounds there in the last fiscal year. The
total imports of coffee into the United
States, admitted free of duty, exceeded
one billion pounds during the last fiscal
year, an increase of three hundred mil
lion pounds within two years. The
sources of supply from which the Uni
ted States obtained this coffee were as

The average value of the coffee i'm
ported into the United States is only

the bulk of the imports it fixes the
prices for the whole market. The small

trail America, the East Indies and from
Porto Rico range in value from 1015 toI
II cents per pound, while the import
value of Hawaiian coffee last year was
10 cents per pound At these figures it
can. be readily seen why it is impossi-
BILE for Porto Rico and Hawaii to COM

almost one-haIf the price. 1t is not the
best of the South American coffee, by
market. Considerable quantities are
received from Venezuela but the choic-

Far-reaching Union.
San Francisco CAL, Sept. 1.-THE Call
says that the largest and most far-reaching
union in the history of railroads has been
formed by the railroad conductors and
brakemen on roads operating west of Chi
cago. The men are dissatisfied with the
present rates of wages, and will in the i'm
mediate future make a demand for an in
crease of salaries of 20 per cent. The Call
claims to be in a position to announce that
this urion will make test case on one of
the roads.
The organization was perfected last June
in Kansas City, and W. V. Stafford, pas
senger conductor of the Southern Pacific,
residing at Oakland, was elected its executive
head
Circulars have been passed around among
the men, and, as a result, every trainman
has signed the request asking for the in.
crease OF 20 per cent and making other de-
manda.

OF the union confirmed, it is said, all OF
the above statements and added: "Our or
