80 PERSONS KILLED.
Fifty Houses Swept Away by 9
Tidal Wave.

Yokohama, Oct 1 (via Victoria, B. CO.
"A terrible typhoon has spread disaster
all over the northern part of Japan. 1t
was accompanied by seismic tidal waves
at Odawara which deluged the coast
villages, the loss of life and property
being immense. Subscription lists have
been opened in the various towns by the
leading Japanese people and news
papers. A local journal says:
From kilograms and personal narra-
tives it seems that the typhoon which
visited this section of Japan on Satur-
day night and Sunday centralized its
fury in the region of Odawara Tidal
waves visited the shores at Odawara,
Kodzu, Kamekura, Oizos and loss of life
and immense damage to property en-
sued. The telegraph reports that at
Odawara alone fifty houses were washed
away and eight persons killed on Sun
day morning. The Yumoto-K -Kodzu
Odawara line was completely paralyzed.
Whole sections were lifted bodily-sleep-
ers and raiis-and transported hundreds
of yards inland. At the power house
the dynamo was reported still there, but
the house was supposed to be up in the
mountains somewhere The loss viii
eat up a considerable amount of the
years profits of the line

Mr.. Craddock maliciously defrauded a
widow of her 1ittle air by sowing in the
mind of his unsuspecting victim the seeds
of confidence through the use of deiib-
crate falsehood with the intention to de-
fraud her of her property Mr. Morgan
will be cited to a similar case where
Craddock defrauded firm out of $1,000 by
Misrepresentation.
These are matters of court record They
are unfortunate 1t is distressing that d
party should nominate such man for
governor; it is also distressing that the
Democrats should nominate for lieutenant
governor Fred Close, who was obliged a
number of years ago to refund money to
Doniphan county which he had taken
while a county officer, in manner exact
ly similar to the transaction charged
against Tom Kelly We are sorry that
men of this character are ever nominated
by either party, but if we were a Demo-
crat with men like Craddock and Close on
the ticket we wouldn't yell much about
the Kelly matter unless we also yelled
about these other confidence men"
In Republic county an independent ticket
was nominated against the regular Re
publican ticket, but according to d. Y
Wilson, who was down from Belleville a
day or two ago, Governor Stanley is sure
of Republic county y'svote in the legislature
the regular Republican candidate, was in
opponent, J. H. Hostetler, has also said
he will vote for Stanley. The fusionists,
however, are working to elect Hostetler,
and the Independent ticket was finally
placed in the Democratic column in Re
public county.

lance with Boiling Republicans.
The Independent i'm it's Issue Of Aes-
terday contains the following:
Elsewhere in this issue is contained
a caution to the Home Rule party "tO
make haste slowly" in connection with
rumor for the selection of John T..
Bush TO the chieftainay Of its cNecu-
tive committee. Our reason for this
caution is that the TumDr gCaS further
and says that he is being thereto urged
by te malihini wing of the Republican
party, supported by the Bulletin. And
if such is really the case, IT is worth
the while to go slowly rather than
make some show of supporting the ma
lihni against the kamaina. Brothers,
go slow: it is worth the trouble to be
most cautions whom you are befriend-
ing We deem that wing the most dan
gerous, for they only want power, and
the assistance of the native electorate
They are striving hard for this object
and we are aware that they are at it
night and day, even Sundays, believing
no doubt i'm the saying that there is
no rest for the wicked Beware of
such a gang; they will throw you over
as soon as they have gained their OBJ
iect, as has already been the case in
many instances only too well known.
Rather stand by the kamaaina friends
than to coddle with these seemingly
malihini friends who are playing you
false.

AT the meeting of the Board of
Health yesterday a letter was read
from DR.. Oliver, in which he called at
tention to the fact that his agreement
with the Board called for months
notice i'm case of removal. He was vot-
ed a months salary.
The appointment of superintendent
McVeigh. at a salary of $225 per month,
was formally ratified.
DR.. Sloggett called attention to the
need of more medical assistance at the
settlement. An assistant physician,
with two or three dressers, was needed,
to properly care for the 1000 patients
at the settlement.

THEY WANT OLIVER


The lepcrs at the Molokai settlement
have held meetings and passed rcsolu-
tiOns on the subject of the removal of
Dir. oliver The resolutions are COM
mandatory of the retiring doctor. The
resolutions passed by the white lepers
are as follows:
Whereas we, the white lepers at the
settlement on Molokai presuming from
long experience that we know better
what the difficulties of the physician in
this place are, and the character of
the people he has to deal with than
any committee, whoever they may be,
who only come into the settlement for
a few hours. We are Of the opinion
that the general charges made by the
committee of the Board of Health
against the resident physician, Dr.
Richard oliver, are unWarTanted, and
Whereas, the Board of Health has re-
tanned DR.. oliver as resident physician
of the settlement for the last ten years,
they would have neglected their duJy
i'm this matter We're not DR.. oliver
what we think him to be- the physician
best suited to this peculiar place and
people, and Furthermore, the Board of
Health itself would have been largely
to blame, if the charges preferred by
said committee against Dr.. Oliver were
correct: therefore be it
Resolved, That we sincerely regret
the decision of the committee that Or.
Oliver should be asked to resign, and,
if their decision is endorsed by the
Board of Health, we earnestly hope
that the Board, i'm selecting his sue
cessOr, will secure as good a man, and
as able a physician. Also be it further
Resolved, That a copy of these reso-
lutiOns be sent to DR.. Oliver, and one
copy to each of the Honolulu newspa-
pers, both English and Hawaiian,
Per order:
WILLIAM CLARK,
Secretary.
Kalaupapa, April Is, 1902.
The native lepers adopted the follow
ing:
Resolved, 1t is the conviction of this
mass meeting that the cause of the
death of PilipO Makila, a man who was
unlawfully cast and kept i'm jail and
who died on account of neglect, would
not have been known to his fellow
sufferers, had not the resident physi-
clan, DR.. r.. Oliver called the attention
OF the superintendent of the settlement
to the bad state the man was in; and
the doctors request to have the man
removed to the Bay View Home was
denied till it was too late; and the
man died a horrible death.
Therefore we lepers seize the Oppor-
tuniues offered by this mass meeting
to express our appreciation of the in
dependence of DR.. Oliver, in the full
fllment of his duty in this case, where
by he exposed himself to the ill-will
of the superintendent and revenge of
the Board of Health.
And be it further said that for ten
years in constant attendance upon us,
we have had no complaints to make to

sooth, he was unciviliZed-then, and not
until then, can l concede his allegations.
Finally, what has the negro done since
he was enfranchised to show his lack of
civilization? The southerner says that the
negro showed himself untitled for the bal
lot in that he voted against him and in
favor of the republican ticket at every cleo
ton. Surely Mr.. Littleteld did not intend
to indorse this; and yet in effect he goes
beyond 1T in support of the southerners'
contention.
Sitting as a reviewing judge, to reverse
a verdict rendered by a jury of learned
statesmen who heard the evidence and saw
the witnesses testify in the over thirty
years ago, Representative Littlefield should
have stronger testimony than the declara-
lions of interested parties.
The southern white man acted as he did
to regain political control. He does not say
that the enfranchised negro was not civil
liked, and yet he laughs in his sleeve and
reaps all the benefits to be derived from
such statements emanating from the
negro's northern friends, whereby he justi-
fies all past and future wrongs that may
be inflicted upon this defenseless people.

Butler and Balfour Have Dispute.

A dispatch from London yesterday says:
An acrimonious correspondence between A.
]. Balfour and Gen. Butler has been pre-
scented. Mr.. Balfour contends that Gen.
Butler was in chief command at the battle
of Spion Kop, while the general denies this
assertion. To his contention Mr.. Balfour
adds:
There is no reason why all the Spion
Kop dispatches should not be published"
To this Gen. Butler rejoins that he hopes
the dispatches will be published without
manipulation.
Mr.. Balfour replied to Gen. Butler, pro-
tested against the latter's insinuation. and
declared that the only manipulation which
had been exercised with regard to Gen.
Buffers dispatches was the excelsior of a
single sentence criticising Sir Charles War
rem, while the omissions from Lord Rob-
erts' dispatches relating to oNerations in
Natal were made. said Mr.. BaIfour. "solely
for the purpose of, If possible, sparing your
feelings and maintaining your military
reputation"
