REPUBLICAN DEFEAT INVITED
lHilo Tribune.1

lHilo Tribune
The defeat of the Republican ticket
was invited by the party wnen It re-
fused to consider public sentiment at
the time OF the convention. A general
Iunyarying political feeling in Hilo for
ten years has been one of more or less
hostility to the powers at Honolulu.
The people here have for many years
rejoiced in complaints against the
gang. They have said II we ever have
the chance to vote we will down the
push and any who represent them here
The nomination Of l.. 4. Andrews was
q challenge to scratch the ticket. Not
so much was this true on account of
Andrews personally as II was because
OF his political connection, and be-
cause Of local antipathy to the regime
OF which MIR. Andrews has been an sx-
pOnent for years. The dominent factor
in the convention staked the fate of the
PARTY on this one candidate. needless
Of the fact that his feet were of lead
and that better timber was available.
They could not believe that any one
could oppose their views upon just
grounds and with the good of the party
as motive. The Republicans waded
in on too narrow lines Suppose Peter
Lee and w. A. Todd and A. b. Lind
say had been on the ticket would the
rarty not now be stronger?

GENERAL wooD's PROMOTION

The promised contest over the pro.

Discussion of the divorce problem
and the possibility of its being taken
up as a national question has caused
one man TO search the records with
the idea OF gaining information on the
frivilous character of the grounds on
which divorces are sought This Is a
partial list OF what he found:
April II, lS95-Pursued with ra-
zor.
Feb. 20, lS96-Locked in room while
the defendant tore her clothing TO
pieces.
Feb. 81, lS96-Threatened with "A ra'

turning on the gas.

Dec. H. 1s97-Beaten with heel OF

Aug. 0, 1S99-Hair torn from head,
struck with fist.
Sept. 5, 1S99-Slapped and kicked

seem that abolition Of divorce laws

Due allowance being made for the
extravaganza OF opinion that usually
obtains in such matters as well as for
congregations in statement. II Is still
true. no doubt, that the goodwill and
the business Of the Plant insurance

sold outright for an extremely large
sum of money. The territory emhrac.

a century developing and building up

derived from most advantageous,
long-term contract entered into with a
prominent life-insurance company
many years ago-a contract of a sort
that is seldom or never written in
these days.
The company, 1t is said, has made
repeated efforts during the last dozen
years or so to buy out this contract
and thus get the business more snugly

After emphasizing the sacredness of

grand jury to conduct fearless and

Judge Gear handed the paper, original
ly handed to him by c. w. Ashford

Foreman Parker, arising, asked the
court II II was necessary that member
OF the Attorney Generals department
should be present when the members
Of the grand jury were celebrating or
were engaged with the examination of
witnesses.
Judge Gear stated that the Attor.
ney General had summoned a good
number of witnesses and that he would

the Attorney General, however, they
could do as they wished in the matter.

I Deputy Attorney General Peters sug-
gested that 1t should be at least sup
posed that the department was honest.
He said that the department had no
hesitancy In conducting the examn-
alton of witnesses, but that as there
was no charge against anyone of the
department, 1t should be taken that
the Attorney General would do his
duty in the premises.
The court said II understood that he
who had intimated charge against

he did not mean II.
As far as the court was concerned It
believed the Attorney General would
take up the investigation with the
grand jury in the proper manner.

SURRENDER OF LEE.
Thirty-Eighth Anniversary of this Event
Last Friday.

It was thirty eight years ago last
Friday that Robert L. Lee, the great
confederate, surrendered at Apo
mattox, Va, to Gen. Grant. His
surrender marked the end of the
greatest rebellion known to history.
There was no Ostentatious ceremony
connected with the surrender. Gen.
Lee, expecting that Grant would
come to the Mclean house, where
the surrender took place, dressed in
his best "bib and tucker" had ar
rayed himself in fine uniform and
carried the sword that had been pre-
sented to him by the state of Vir-
ginia. The confederate chieftain
and members of his staff were at the
house before Grant arrived, and
anxiously awaited his coming. Fin
ally the cry went up Here comes
Gen. Grant" This was judged, not
because any officer with brilliant
uniform was seen, but because the
federal officers who were with Lee,
among them Gen. Sheridan and Gen.
Custer, knew who was coming.
The confederate officers couldn't see
any difference in uniforms and were
unable to tell Grant from one of his
aides until the party of horsemen
came to halt, when all dismounted.
Grant wore a blouse and a SLOUGH
hat, with a faded gold cord around
it, but his shoulder straps told who
he was. He bowed to the confed-
crate officers who stood around as
he passed into the house, where he
was then introduced to Lee and they
shook hands, and was then intro
duced to the other confederate offic-
ers. The terms Of surrender were
agreed upon and signed, and all that
was then left for Lee to do was to
tender his jewel-hilted sword to
Grant, which he did-a sword which
had SIS, 900 worth of jewels on the
hilt. AS the conquered hero was
about to tender it to the magnan-
imous conqueror, Grant said:
keep your sword, Gen. Lee, a
Drawer man could not wear it," The
scene was one which showed the
acme of manhood on the part of
Grant, and it was also sad and
pathetic one. The two great cap
tains then shook hands and parted;
one riding toward the south, the
other toward the north. The war
was over. The black thrOated can
mons that had been belching death
and destruction for over four years
we're silenced, and the greatest
nation of the earth remained I'M
divided.
