The newspaper world is well repre-
sented in Carrollton by the Free Press
and the Times. ] believe both papers
were founded by the late E. R. Sharpe,
one of the old standbys of the Geor-
gia Press Association.
The Carroll Free Press is edited and
published by that veteran journalist,
j. T. Hearn, Esq. formerly of Savan-
nah; a gentleman. who knows the art
of printing from Alpha to omega. The
Free Press is a, neat and newsy paper.
Mr.. Hearn has for his assistant his
daughter, and his office is a model of
neatness.
The Carroll County Times is edited
by Mr.. J. j. Thomas, who left Geor-
gia for Arkansas 20 years ago, but
who returned two years since, salts
fed that there is no place like his ma
tive state. Mr.. Thomas has two
daughters to assist him in getting out
his excellent paper, and keeping the
Office in ship-shape.
/ have noticed that in newspaper
offices in the smaller as well as in the
larger cities. where women are at
work, there is a tidy and
everything in its place, appearance.
There are no old ink-daubed
towels, old shoes, pipes, cigar stumps,
and other dirty things lying around,
to say nothing of unswept floors and
undusted counters and cases. In some
offices where women are not employed,
the floors never see a broom in months,
and everything looks out of keller. A
woman in printing Office of that class
would not only be a blessing to those
who work in them, but a paying bust
ness investment, because there would
be more trade and less waste. Gus
toners will do no more business than
they can help with slip-shod news
paper people. A neat printery like a
neat store will attract trade. A news
paper office should be kept clean, even
if the editor has to do the sweeping
and busting himself. Neatness and
cleanliness in any business is a good
investment. IF cleanliness is next to
Goodness. there are some newspaper
offices that are not in the same block
with that place where the gates are
ajar' for good people. Get a wo
man or broom gentleman, or get the
first and she will do the rest You
will find that there is health and
wealth in we'll kept newspaper office.

DON'T N ED ADVICE.

The Democratic party in this Terri
tory don't need any unsought for ad-
vice from any Republican organ as TO
what it shall do, but the party will do
as it sees fit and proper for its own
good and those of, for and by the peo-
pie. No extraneous advice need be Of

I'll good Democrats would stand by and

innuendoes grstuitously proffered. 1t

WEB 1T SPECULATION =

1t seems that the lack of discipline
among our prominent officials has been
caused through sugar stock dealings.
That is the impression conveyed to us,
which we deem more than a mere
supposition, Government funds were
taken no doubt with tue intent of re-
funding them in due course, and this at
the expense of the taxpayers, but
sudden slump having been caused in
such shaky dealings with the peoples
money, failure to refund naturally oc
Cured and a shortage was the result,
We very much doubt il any defalcation
was ever intended, everything being
good faith and with good and honest
motives and intentions. Nor can we
ever believe that any dishonesty was
INTENDED to defraud Or embezzle public
funds on the lines above indicated and
demonstrated. We may be entirely out
and wrong in our deductions, but such
is our supposition if the truth were
only known, which we hope to soon see
disprovep, But il CUR friends are
guilty, when proven to be SO, they
should be made to suffer the penalty,
When that is done, and then only, we
will not brook to shield them

There is quite stir going On among
army and naval men stationed hero
that as they are all American citizens
they think that they are entitled to
register and to cast heir votes here
in this Territory in the same manner
as they would do on tho Mainland. We
are made to understand that certain
persons are telling these military men
that they should assert their rights of
citizenship at the approaching general
election, and by so doing should swell
the ranks OF eligible voters some few

HOME RULE PARTY BLAMED.

1t seems to be as Mr.. Edgar Caypless
has repeatedly said in some of his pub
lie utterances lately that, according 10
Republican assertions, ii you want TO
find anything good you must look 10
our Republicans, and for all that Is pad
in among the Home Rulers. And FUR
ther, that in Home Rule'is the perfect
embodiment of all bad things, whether
in acts of commission or omission; and
for all sanity things, they must be
looked for in among the missionary
faction and in the whole of the RepuD-
lican cohorts. All in among the Home
Rule party and outside of it, with the
sole exception of those in the Republi-
can party, are small potatoes that
does not deserve any notice nor re@os-
milton.

During the past few days, and par
ticularly since the Treasury affair be-
came to be of such public notoriety, the
Home Rule party has received the
brunt of blame for forcing Governor

important position of trust, that OF
Registrar of Public Accounts, an ,ap-
pointment made by Treasurer Damon.
and was placed under the usual bonds,
during his tenure of that office. Whon
this particular appointment was made
it was made in the line OF promotion, a
policy then instituted by the Governor.
Failing in his efforts to place those
suitable to his liking and well disposed
towards him, by forcing them upon the
Home Rule party to swallow, even go
ing so far as to repeatedly refuse men
advanced by the Home Rulers, he saw
fit to make their promotions and dii
make them after being strongly eli

An advertising card has recently pas
sed through the local postoffice entitled
"Misapplied Energy" Upon it is a pic
ture of supposedly wild bull attempt
ing to buck up against a moving train
SO as to stop it's motion. What we
wondered is whether the "misapplied
energy was in the train or in the
bull. If in the train, then it must be in
the line of watery goods it is supposed
to carry, and if in the bull, then it must
be in the kind of stuff contained within
it, may be, in it's horns or in its tail,
but we think it most likely in the lat
ter or its neither extremities. We think
that such an advertising dodger is
somewhat of work of art, but we also
think that it is an insult upon the good
nature of folks. How came it that that
kind of "misapplied energy" was per-
mitted to travel through the mails re-
gardless of its other side. Too-too.

AS Hawaiians the Home Rulers en-

as to the assertion of compromise,
now made by certain Republicans, il is
purely fabrication and am after con-
sideration, since developments became
known, in order to throw the blame
upon the shoulders of others. And yet,
in the face of events now at last ok
posed, the Governors apologist has the
effrontery to assert that had he re-
fused to nominate Wright for Treasur,

1.-THE Home Rule Legislature

funds for paying the expenses of the

From our standpoint the above
three things" are rather raw and
bald. When the Home Rulers con-
trolled the Legislature in both branches
as the predominant party, they natural
ly asserted their right, and rightly too,
for the recognition of tried and capa-
BILE Hawaiians to become competent
and efficient officials. The turning down
of certain white officials who had made
themselves Objectionable and had be-
come unbearable, was in the line of di-
rect natural consequences that were
bound to follow. But to blame the
Home Rulers for all the ills is really
too rich to be entertained seriously,
but rather more in the line of huge
and tremendous joke.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1902-09-27

Another and the last responsibility
placed upon Home Rule shoulders was
the assertion made in this mornings
Advertiser that the responsibility for
the fact that bonds were not required
of the Treasurer was mot the fault
of the Governor but of the party which
controlled the Legislature-a party
which accepted no advice or recommen-
dations from the Executive whatever,
and would have resented a proposal
to bond any HawaiiGn." Is not this
bonding idea an after consideration
since the developments of the past few
days? But we will here assert and in
sist that it is the fault of the Governor
in not presenting a bill for the con-
sideration of the last Legislature on
the proposition now made. The fore
going accusation is too rich to pass 1t
by with merely passing notice.
