Judge Gear at 100 yesterday after
noon charged the grand jury regarding
the request made by c. w. Ashford
for an investigation Of the Oahu county
election. At the outset he stated that
the laws of the Territory provided for
the conduct of elections and included
rules and regulations having the force
of law. He was not passing upon the
subject as a matter of law, but would
inform the grand jury that the Organic
Act continued in force the laws of the
Republic of Hawaii providing for the
purity of elections. They were aware
of this month for county officers. Ger
tain information had been presented
to the court, which would not be read
then but would be handed to their fore
man. Neither would the court give
them any instructions about the regis
tration of voters.
SINK PARTY FEELING.
They were to investigate cases re-
lating to the county election regardless
of all party feeling. A great many
witnesses had been subpoenaed for
their examination. The court hoped
the grand jury would take up the mat
ter in the spirit in which it should be
taken up, remembering their oaths.
Their investigation must not be for the
purpose of aiding any party or candi-
date. They must lose sight entirely
of all political affiliations they indi-
vidually might have. The statutes
were those of the Territory of Hawaii
and We're for the benefit and protection
Of all alike.
ACT WITHOUT FAVOR.
It was their duty, if they found that
any offenses against those laws had
been committed, to bring an indict7
ment against every offender no matter
who he might be. There were two
parties contesting the election-the Re-
publican and the Home Rule parties.
Let no guilty man escape. Lose sight
wholly of the political situation.
The grand jury had the disposal OF
the services of officers of the court.
They might subpoena any witnesses
they pleased, who they thought would
be able to give light on the investiga-
ton. It might be their duty to sub
poena witnesses about whom they
knew nothing if they supposed such
could furnish useful evidence.
KEEP PETITION SECRET.
They would be handed a commune
cation, which accompanied the request
for an investigation for their guidance.
Copies of the laws, rules and regula-
tions read to them would also be pro-
vided if they desired. The commune
cation was to be kept secret because
it contained names of persons against
whom no proof OF wrong doing might
be presented.
Samuel Parker, foreman of the grand
jury, asked if it would be necessary
to have the Attorney General or his
deputy present in the grand jury room
while they were examining the wit
nesses.
MIGHT EXCLUDE ATTORNEY
GENERAL.
Judge Gear answered not unless they

FREEDOM TO WITNESSES.

Shortly after the grand jury retired
to the Supreme Court room, Deputy
Attorney General Peters came out and
released a number of witnesses until
called by messenger or telephone.
This regard for the time of busy men
was much appreciated. Several wit
nesses were called in during the after

Republicans among the witnesses
were not the most serious looking of
the multitude. One of them said he
had no objection to testifying to all
he knew about unlawful practices, as
his testimony in that regard was Ii
able to send at least one Home Rule
politician on the reef.

COULD NOT CONVICT.

With three jury courts in session and
about hundred witnesses subpoena
ed for the grand jury, there was a
great crowd damned about the en-
trance as we'll as inside Judge Gears
court room when the charge was being
delivered. Many natives without COM
pulsfon to attendance at court swelled

Parents, who read the account Of the
West Burke elopement case, may wisely
do little thinking. A few questions
like these will suggest themselves

tances in every sense unequvocal?

1t is so easy to find fault, and SO hard
to do things in way that will satisfy
everyone The Montpelier Daily Journal
has IA Job office and once on time
printed a pamphlet issued by the board
of agriculture, advertising the undevel-
oped resources and attractions of YER
mont. That was about ten years ago.
Now another similar book has been
issued for the board of agriculture by
another printer. and there is nothing
right about it. The journal turns its
batteries of sarcasm, ridicule and venom
upon the present board when before
everything was commended.
Is this the way to help Vermont to
grow:
Is this the way to encourage state
officials to give their time, and practically
take the cost of printing out of their pay,
in order to let the world know that Yer
mont has resources worth developing;
farms that can be had at a price that
makes the investment better to the home
seeker or investor than anything the
west can offer:
1t is Just this spirit of fault. finding,
whether in press or people that has
retarded the growth of the state.

how he sold farm, a good one too, and

about the transaction, because, he said,
everyone of them would have run down
the farm and told the purchaser all its
faults, etc, etc, and frightened him
away, had they got a chance at him.
What Vermont needs is a spirit of
state pride that talks up the good points
of her farms, her horses, cattle, sheep,
men, attractions, etc. instead of running
them down to the prospective investor.

Let Others DO Likewise.

Such enterprise AS the little village of
jacksonville in this state is showing is
worth emulating by the towns of the
state. \ little over a month ago the
village lost its principal industry. the
mill of the North River Manufacturing
company, in fire which swept away a
large part of the village Although the
blow was most severe, the leading men
have started movement to repair the
damage done. They plan to organize a
stock company, rebuild the mill and run
it. Already a major portion of the
amount needed has been subscribed. and
there Is little doubt that the whole
amount will be easily secured. With
that secured Jacksonville's leading in
dustry will be restored and even inn
proved upon. The results of this energy
are already to be seen in the promise of
several new houses. If some other places
III Vermont would show as commendable
spirit, there would be less of that slug
gishness with which the state is
charged. In addition, the jacksonville
incident is an excellent example for
those who have no desire to place their
money in home industries. The rest of
the state wishes Jacksonville good
measure of success. Barre Daily Times.
This Is true every word of it. The
towns that grow are those where there
is town spirit; where men will work
together and invest their money to help
home industries.

vermont" Under such stamp and
label it has had the same open market
and wide sale. that the genuine Vermont
product has always enjoyed. :,
No one has acquired the art of maple
sugar or butter making so successfully
as the Vermonter, says the Boston Adj
vertiser. The action of producers in
other states in labelling their product as
of Vermont, has not only interfered
with the sale of the native product, but
the stuff being an inferior article) has
caused the native product, to be under
suspicion.
No class of tradespeople is more
pleased with the label provisions of the
food law than the wholesale and retail
grocers throughout New England. They
have tried to get the original Vermont
product for their customers, and have
often been deceived by producers who
offer them goods under the Vermont
LABEL which has been produced possibly
in New York or in the middle states, or
worse yet, in the laboratory of the
chemist. The grocers have sold them
in good faith to their customers, and
when it was found to be an inferior
article, then the dealers have had to
suffer. If they find any violation of the
label provision of the food law, they
will make the evidence known to the
,ff;,.ialo
Many of the alleged vermont maple
syrups contain poisonous coloring matter
and in many cases injury to the public
health has been wrought. There has
been very little chance of ferreting out
the original producer who used "Ner-
mont label to give his goods wide
sale. AS the penalty under the new
law for false labelling is $500 to $1,000 for
each offence, violations will be rare.
Hereafter the infringement of the Yer
mont name will be pretty risky
venture.

VIII Help Vermont.

The state board of agriculture has
issued "A handsome booklet entitled Yer
mont; its opportunities for investment
in agriculture, manufacture: minerals:
its attractions for summer homes" Con-
corning this brochure the St. Adams
Messenger well says: 1T is good thing
to see some systematic endeavor being
put forth to call attention of the outside
world to the opportunities for the EN-
ployment of capital, making of homes,
or for seeking recreation and pleasure in
Vermont. If the resources of the state
in this direction can once become gem
orally known, there will be no question
about the result, because the old Green
Mountain state was made to live in and
to live long and happily and comfortably
in, and there is plenty of room left yet
for more people to come in and do it,
Rutland Daily News.
The board is clearly entitled to credit
for the effort il has made to advertise
the attractions and resources of Yer
mont. This was tried in 1898, the year
of the Worlds Fair and as a direct re-
suit of that effort, hundreds of persons
were induced to come to Vermont and
invest money in farms. in the granite,
marble and other industries. Keep on
advertising Vermont.

The people of Stowe are becoming in
terested in the building of a new sum
mer hotel, and a renewal of the DAYS
when that town had a 300 room sum-
mer house and was one of the principal
summer resorts of Vermont.
Architect f. \. Walker has a water
color painting of hotel of which he has
ground plans, which will be placed on
exhibition at Stowe during Old Home
week. 1t represents a large, airy hotel
of Old English design with long build
ing and two wings at the ends, a
veranda around the court. with an open
garden in the center. The rooms are
all outside rooms and the hotel is plan
ned to accommodate from 100 to l25
guests. 1t is from two to two and one
half stories high with high gable roofs

good summer hotel, run by man
who understands his business. would
certainly pay at Stowe. 1t is one of the
most attractive towns in Vermont to
summer visitors. The big summer hotel
was once filled every season, and a good
hotel would be filled now.
The trouble with such enterprises is,
usually, that too much money is put into
the building. Expensive buildings are not
needed for this business. 1t is the loca-
ton, the furnishings and the manage
ment that count.
One of the most successful summer
hotels is at Westport, y. y. The build
ing is not expensive, but it is adapted to
the business, and as the business has in
creased, cottages have been built.
People interested in building summer
hotels will get valuable pointers by
visiting the Westport Inn.
