Treasurer Kepoikai is quoted by the
Advertiser as saying, in respect to the
Hawaiian bonds:
This offer of Messrs. Edward Pol
litz & Co. is better than the sale Of
the bonds at four and half per cent
in New York" Mr.. Kepoikai said tu
an Advertiser reporter.
There is a difference of one-half
Of one per cent in favor of San Fran
cisco against New York in the rate Of
exchange. Besides there is charge
Of one-Quarter of one per cent for
handling the payments in New York
These two items make three-fourths of
one per cent difference, which wipes
out the advantage of one-half per cent
in the rate of interest
1T would be good thing to have all
of the bonds taken outside of the Ter
ritory, because it would be so much
fresh capital brought into the islands.
THAT is perfectly right, too, what
the Politics say about their friendli-
ness to Hawaii If the bonds were
held in San Francisco it would tend
to increase the interest Of the Pacific
coast in Hawaiian affairs and secure
favorable influence from that quar-
ter for us in Washington,
"It is true also that the Eastern
capitalists are not our friends. They
would rather help Cuba and Porto Ri
co than Hawaii. The New York
steamers come here and take away our
sugar but do not leave dollar be-
hind. This is not felt so much in
Honolulu as at Kahului. They bring
all their supplies along and do not
buy even tobacco or so much as a pair
OF socks at the store. No, they come
and go on schedule time and, from the
captain to the oiler do not spend a
bean ashore.
'Kahului had better times when the
sugar was shipped in schooners.'

Should Candidates Bob Wilcox and
Curtis Iaukea be elected instead of
Arthur Brown and Kimo Palaka,
wouldn't they be justified in ousting
those myrmidons who showed active
partizanship against them? OF course
they would, by all means. That's the
kind of American politics we are COM
ing to, because "to the victors belong
the spoils"-and the Republicans have
set the example.

Paddy Ryan, manager of Soldier De
Lille, states that he is willing to pit his
man in the pugilistic ring against Bill
Huihui upon the single term that the
winner takes all the stakes. 1t would
seem to be Jimmy Fox's next move.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-10-16

We are not saying this for the sake
of talking, but it is as we feel, because
we think 1t is nothing more than right
and proper. And further, it is the
kind of politics we expect to have here.
1t is about time that the people should
and must rule, these time-serving
henchmen to the contrary not
withstanding-who fear to lose the
power they have been enjoying during
the past ten years and more. The time
has come for the people to assert them
selves, to rule themselves and their
country among themselves, with the
assistance of their friends, not their
despoilers and oppressors.

He did not, 1t is true, uphold the Re-

This is condition that should noe
be tolerated and the responsibility for
such condition rests with the Gov
ernment We believe that the people
should rule always and at all times
and that the Government should not
employ its servants to oppose their
masters the people. No form of gov
ernment can survive without the CON
sent of the people who are to be gov
erned, and we deem 1t most improper
and unfair that certain few placed in
position over the people (not by their
cholce) are using an effort to under
mine the people themselves, with
some of themselves who are in their
pay, and too weak to oppose the die
tates of those who placed them on the
pay-rolls, which these self-same Off
cials are not paying for with their
money, but with the people

District Attorney Breckons and Com
missioner Douthitt, both Federal Off
cials, are taking and showing active
partizan spirit in county politics with
in this Territory. We think that they
have no earthly right to meddle in our
local affairs, yet we concede to them
their right as American citizens to do
as they choose. Why can't they follow
ir the footsteps of Judge Estee and re-
main impartial of course not unmind-
full of their duties as citizens.

WHO SaALL RULE Us?

snail the Government or the peo-
pie rule?" to quote Andrew Jackson S
priceless phrase which he used in a
letter addressed to the Kentucky com
mlttee during the American campaign
of 1928, since which time it has be-
come famous, is most applicable at
this time in the history OF this "wee"
country to the political conditions
that we are undergoing. In looking at
things as We see them, none can be
too blind to notice the strenuousness
displayed by certain branches of the
Government. now subject to politics,
wherein employees, paid by the peo-
pie, are made to do active partisan pol
itics for their chiefs during office
hours, and in doing so, they show
themselves to be in direct opposition
to the people, who pay them for the
services they render, and not to the
personal interest of those over them,

High Sheriff Brown and Assessor
Pratt have a perfect right to do poll
tics. We concede that much to them,
in behalf of their own, candidacy, as
their Offices are to be political Offices;
but we still hold that they must do
1t outside of office hours. They have
no right whatever to make those un.
der them show partisanship in their
favor as the positions of these myr-
midons are not to be classed in the
same category. Nor have they right
to demand 1t of them even after office
hours, as they are not paid for such
purpose. When their days work is
over, being for the time they are paid
for by the people, they are at liberty
to do anything else that pleases them,
even to taking strenuous steps in par.
tizan politics, in which event, they
hold their tenure to enjoy service in
their own hands.

that they are fighting them with the
peoples own weapons intended for a
purpose altogether apart from that in
which they are now being employed.
1t is bound to recoil some day and who
will be the sufferers? These active par
tisans will have to suffer for their
own folly and they have no one else to
blame other than themselves, as they
are now digging their own political
graves. Policemen in citizens clothes,
tax Office clerks and employees under
the Public Works Department are all
showing strenuous activity in the
behalf of the Republican can
didates day and night, includ-
ing the time which they should
devote to their duties. 1t must be
taken for granted that the Govern.
ment is striving with all its might
and strength to maintain it's hold up.

future as in the past, whether they
like it or not. But now, there is one
satisfaction, and that is--it is up 10
the voters to say whether "the govern.

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

Hack Inspector Macy took to the
Republican stump the evening before
last as a spieler for his chief, because
he was asked to, so he says. His place
is not in politics, for he's only an
understrapper. We think he ought to
have enough sense to keep his face
closed; if he hasn't it ought to be
pumped into him with bicycle pump.
How would that suit him?
In reading out Speaker f. w. Beck
ley and Moses X. Nakuina the, Home
Rule party has, in Q measure, cut off
its nose to spite It's face. At the same
time the appearance of Nakuina in the
field against the regular nominee of his
party was not proper The rules OF
politics demanded positively that he
accept the action OF the convention.
Beckley's chief break was in appearing
on the firing line in the enemy's camp,

Those vouchers again! For heavens
sake let the matter be Investigated to
the limit. But we wish to have it
understood that the Republicans clam
oring for an Investigation will pleas
ing to them when the thing is over.
Should the matter be taken up by the
Federal Grand Jury there will be some
surprises of great moment to the Ad-
vertiser and its hui, or we miss bet
on certainty.

FRIENDLESS SCULPTOR
DIES IN CITY HOSPITAL
Francis Marion Wells, Deserted, Saved
by Loving Wife.


SAN FRANCISCO. July 23.-Friend-
less. penniless. and broken in body and
spirit, Francis Marion Wells, sculptor.
litterateur, and former club member.
died IN the City and County Hospital
here today. His last days we're filed
with keen humiliation to Mr.. Wells. and
his devoted wife, who for several
months managed to earn enough t0
feed her invalid husband and two chill
dren by working as housekeeper at q
small hotel.
Mr.. Wells had suffered FIVE apoplectic
strokes. and. when his condition became
critical. his wife wrote to several of his
former club friends to come to his as
sistance. none responded.
Probably the most conspicuous piece
OF work done by Mr.. Wells is his statue
OF Liberty, which adorns the dome Of
the San Francisco city hall. The figure
was modelled from Mrs Wells and the
poise is very graceful. Other notabIe
work by Wells is the bas relief OF John
Lick in Pioneer Hall. the John Marshall
monument In Sonora county, and in
terror decorations OF Stanford Univer-
sity. Mr. Wells was hfty-fve years old.

GLASS MANUFACTURERS
WANT MORE EXAMINERS
Customs Division of Treasury Asks As
ISOLATION to Set Forth Reasons.

Copies Of the resolutions adopted at
ISOLATION of Flint and Lime Glass
Manufacturers, held at Atlantic City
July II. have been received at the office
of the Secretary of the Treasury. and
have been referred to the customs di-
vision for consideration.
The glass manufacturers recommend
the employment by the Government Of
additional examiners in the various
ports Of entry for the appraisement and
classification of foreign merchandise.
1t is stated in the resolutions that the
appraisement and classification OF for
eign merchandise is OF vital Importance
to the interests OF honest importers and
domestic producers.
The argument is made that the
Treasury Department has maintained the
natural policy OF reasonable business
economy in appointing only a sufficient
number of examiners to do the work of
appraising imported merchandise
throughout the country, but that correct
administration Of our customs laws may
be advanced by inaugurating a policy Of
transfer Of examiners.
Oficials OF the customs division have
written to the secretary of the associa-
ton asking that the reasons for request
ing the changes be set forth more spe-
officially.

the caissons, forge, and field wagons
all looked as new as when they came
from the factory. The horses were in
the best Of condition and appeared as
though they could go the distance to
Leesburg. which is forty-one long miles,
without breaking down.
The battery chose the most direct
route possible. Captain Marion took
his men up Pennsylvania Avenue and
out to the Aqueduct Bridge Having
crossed the bridge TO the green fields
Of Virginia. he sat about slipping off
the miles that separated him from his
toric old Leesburg.
To Fire the Sunset Gun.
He hopes to reach the Old Dominion
town before sunset this evening. and he
believes his men and the horses. al
though both as green aad raw as they
come, will not be much the worse of
for the trip.
The First Battery is due to FIRE the
sunset gun at Camp Ordway. and II it
does not arrive In time then there will
be no official sunset The road down 20
Leesburg is q rough one at best. AMI
it is not contended by anyone that the
heavy rains of recent date did any good.
Notwithstanding that fact Captain Mar
ron has a goal to reach at a given
time. and as he usually gets there on
time II is not believed that this will be
an exceptional occasion. The men have
rations enough for a light lunch. but
they will get no supper until they set
foot on Georges Farm, or Camp Ord way.
