Kankakee Charges Sustained.

While the attempt has been made
to create through the general nature
of press dispatches sent out concern
ing the findings of the state board of
charities that the charges against the
Kankakee asylum are not sustained.
closer investigation shows the CON
trary to be true. AS a matter of fact
practically all the allegations as to
the management of the kankakee
asylum are admitted in the report
which the state board of charities
filed at Springfield yesterday relating

ITS Only Effect.

II the absence Of protective duties
does not interfere with the creation Of
trusts in the United Kingdom, how can
it interfere with the creation of trusts
In the United States? The truth is, of
course, that trusts exist without refer
ence 10 tariffs. Our own steel truss
might welcome the enactment of Mr..
Babcock's bill if it went step further
and swept off the duties not on the fin
ished product alone, but also on the
raw materials. The British steel trust
with free trade in this country could
never underseil our own gigantic COM
bination but it might and probably
would undersel the younger and weak
err concerns that are our trusts inde-
pendent competitors.
That would mean. therefore, the com
plete division of the steel business OF
America and Britain between two i'm
mcnse combinations of capital, one in
this country. one abroad. This is the
only effect which the BabcOck measure
could possibly produce The Republic
an majority in congress can never be
persuaded to regard this as Il good ar
gument for its enactmcnt.-Bos

HOME RULERS
DECLARE ISSUES

The Home Rulers have issued a cam
paign document purporting to set forth
the issues upon which it Will go into
the coming campaign. 1t is signed by
Prince Cupid Kalanianaole, John En-
meluth and ID. Kanuha. 1t is printed
in Hawaiian. The following is a trans
lation.
The endorsement of Governor Dole by
the President of the United States
closes the first chapter of the contrO-
versy that has been going on since the
first Legislature of the Territory be-
gan. This conflict of public interests
and freedom is something that comes
in the history of all governments.
The second chapter of this manifes-
tatiOn is what Immediately followed
after the Presidents endorsement of
Mr.. Dole, and which took place on
April Is, The Governor was summons
ed before the Committee of the House
on Territories at Washington. and on
that occasion he said: There are GER
tain things in the Organic act which
would make the people of Hawaii hap
py If changed:"
He also said that he had no other
changes to offer in answer 10 the
questions asked by the committee, but,
said he, The franchise should be re-
stricted so as to make the restriction
extend beyond the Asiatics."
This is where he let the cat out of
the bag and placed himself in a posi-
ton, in the estimation of the Hawaiian
people, which would leave no doubt in
their minds as to his opinion.
These subjects placed before us are
clear and comprehensive. on one side
the Oligarchy with it's limited support
ers, backed by the rich of the Territory
and supprting the Governor IN his adj
ministration against the wishes Of the
people In their desire TO frame their
own destiny; on the other the great
majority of the voters who are ready
and anxious to forge ahead and to Sc
cure the rights and privileges of good
citizenship which has come to US
through the changes which have OBJ
tanned during the past two years.
There is only one road TO success
when it is a question of the majority
after the stand which has been taken
by President Roosevelt. We must fill
every seat in the Senate in the coming
November election and we must obtain
no less than wO-thirds in the lower
house
Those who are to be elected must
stand firmly and without fear on the
principles which we hope win be in
corporated in such laws as viii bring
to the Territory of Hawaii the true I'M
Outstanding Of American government
Therefore, since we are on the side
Of the majority I'm the matter OF the
first Legislature of this Territory, ey-
cry member of this executive commit
tee for some time past has known that
concerted action against Doles die
tates in this Territory must lead to the
one idea of placing this party where
immediate support can be had from
every precinct In every district

Things relating to municipal and
county government should be pushed
ahead from now on until the day Of
election.
The opinion of Home Rulers through
out the lslands-an opinion which we
hope those of other parties will share
is the establishment of county and
municipal government in every island
of the group.
The committee of organization will
give notice when precinct meetings
are to be held, and it is hoped that all
those who oppose Dole will join in the
common issue. Let us put aside all
personal animosity while we are taxi
ing up the common cause and let us es-
tablish a government that is truly for
the people, of the people and by the
people.
Watch out for the advertisements OF
meetings in your precinct and come
and register yourselves on the side of
representative government

Honolulu has not had an agricultural
fair since the days of the old Royal
Agricultural Society, which, in the 50 $,
gave a number of tlne exhibitions. The
society published a journal of its own,
and it's members included most Of the
prominent citizens of the country. The
coming exhibition in the drill shed, un-
der the auspices of the Commissioner
of Agriculture and Forestry, Is expect
ed to surpass the old ones in both size
and excellence of products shown. 1t
was made possible by an appropriation
of $1,000 by the last Legislature.
Commissioner Wray Taylor is receiv-
ing many inquiries about the fair,
which indicate that all districts Of the
Islands are taking interest. 1t is eN-
peCted that hereafter such fairs will be
regularly held. The one this year will
be the first of a series in which prizes
will be offered, and the number of COM
petitOrs in prospect indicates a lively
competition for the honors. The sue
cess of the fair this year will lead 10
even greater competition the next time.
The certificates of award, for first
and second prizes, have been received
by Taylor from a San Francisco litho-
graphing house, and are very artistic.
They will be filed in with the names of
those who win them, and a statement
of the prize and what it was for
There are Sc prizes in the list, under
seven general divisions. The first, y
prizes, is fruit of all kinds. In the sec
ond division are q prizes for vegeta-
bles. Coffee, paddy, rice and sugar
form another division, and hays and
grasses come next. Palms, flowers and
leis make up the other three divisions.
The rules for the exhibition are as fol-
lows:
"All articles exhibited must be ready
for examination by the Judges at $50
o'clock a. m, on Monday, July 2Sth.
The exhibition will be open to the pub
lie at 1890 o'clock a m. on July 18th.
IAN plants, flowers, fruits and vege-
tables offered for prizes must be Ha-
waiian grown and placed on the tables
clean, and correctly labelled.
After the articles are arranged they
will be under the exclusive charge Of
the Commissioner of Agriculture and
Forestry, and cannot be moved until
the exhibition is closed.
mo plants, flowers, fruits or vegeta-
bles viii be entitled to a prize unless
they possess points of superiority, and
! no award will be made to unworthy
objects. though they may be the only
ones of their kind on exhibition
The following gentlemen will OFF,
ciate as Judges: Hon. A. 5. Cleghorn,

JUDGE SAWYER DEAD.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 21.-Former
Judge Ebenezer ID. Sawyer died at his
residence, $50 Bush street, yesterday
morning of pneumonia. He had been
ill for two weeks, and during most of
the time was unconscious. The disease
developed from a cold which he con-
tracted while out driving. His age
prevented the physicians from doing
more than prolong his life. He was -
years old, and leaves a widow and four
children. Three of the latter, who re-
side in this city, are DR.. f. r. and Ed
ward f. Sawyer and a married daugh-
ter, resides in Honolulu.
Judge Sawyer was one of the pioneer
lawyers Of San Francisco. He came
here in 1851, by way of Panama, and at
once began the practice of his profess
sion. In 1865 he was elected a District
Judge, and for time he represented
this city in the State Senate. He was
also a member of the Board of Educa-
ton, and all his life took an active in
terest in public affairs For years John
VI. Burnett was his law partner, and
they enjoyed large practice. At the
time of his death Judge Sawyer was
engaged in the liquidation of the tang
led affairs of the Pacific Bank The
funeral will be held tomorrow from the
First Congregational church.
