Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1903-07-03

A number of Republican papers have paid
considerable attention to the charge that rep
resentative OF the labor unions in NewYork ac-
cepted money for his own use and benefit as
consideration tor the settlement of strikes. The
Omaha Bee, Republican paper with anti-mo'
nopoly tendencies provides an interesting hint
to these critics when it says that "for every
walking delegate who accepts bribes to betray
his people, the re must be some employer to pay
the bribes." Bribe taking and bribe- making are
equally condemned by aw-abidng citizenship.
The New York World intimates that there is
mystery about the retention of Henry c. Payne
as postmaster general. But it must not be for
gotten that there was bit of mystery connected
with the appointment of Mr.. Payne. Mr.. Roose-
velt has always posed as an advocate OF ap-
pointment to public Office based solely on mer-
it. If there existed any reason from the stand
point of public interesrs why Mr.. Payne should
have been made postmaster.general,t that reason
was not made public. There were, however,
many reasons why Mr.. Payne should not have
been chosen for that important position.
Mr. Bristow, fourth assistant postmaster gen
eral, says that during the investigation in the
postoffice department four years ago, he was ad-
vised by the chief inspector that that official had
instructed his subordiuates that they had bet
ter make no reference to certain appointments,
as they had been ordered personally by the post
master-general. Mr.. Bristow says that he told

This summary of the prospects for
today, Kamehameha Day, at the Kapi-
olani track, forecasts what may be look
ed forward to as one of the most in
teresting and entertaining of recent
race days, though in the variety and
quality of the horse flesh it cannot be
said to outclass, though it will COM
pare favorably with previous days.
However, there are certainly fair fields,
the horses are we'll matched, and if
the people are not we'll pleased then it
will be the fault of their tempers and
livers, rather than the sport.
There will be plenty of beauty in the
crowds, for the quarter stretch will be
filled with equipages containing bright
ly gowned ladies and the stands will
have in them any number of parties
of race admirers. The band will be in
the stand, despite the fact that the
camp is now on, and the gayest of airs
will fill in the gaps between the heats
and races throughout the entire day.
The track officials will be old hands,

IN THE HOUSE.

The House went into committee of
the whole house on House Bill No. 2,
the loan measure. with Andrade in the
chair. The first item was that appro-
priating $4OO. 900 for the reorganization
of the wharf system of Honolulu Ku-
pihea moved to reduce the amount to
100000. Harris in a strong statement
objected TO this. saying that ne would
rather see the item cut out entirely
than to see it reduced. He said there
was not a single wharf belonging to
the Territory. which will accommodate
the big ships now coming here and con-
seauently those ships went to the navy
or the Bishop wharves. meaning a loss
TO the Territory of 1850 a day.
PaeIe argued in favor of the reduc-
tion and ChHIingworth made a plea for
the conservation of shipping trade. the
protection of the interests of all those
who are connected with water front
enterprises. Vida supported the reduc-
tiOa5- saying that the Hackfeld wharf
VIZ built for the purpose of taking care
S@eLe new traffic and yet it had not
earned any returns
LOOK OVER THE PLANS.
The House took a recess while the
plans were discussed and inspected, and
when the discussion was resumed ke-
Iifnoi began il with an argument that
the best plan would be to condemn and
purchase the railroad and Bishop
wharves. He said he was in no way
opposed to the development of COM
merce here. as Hcnolulu's prosperity
means the prosperity Of the islands.
Kumalae said he was not ready TO
approve of the item without further con-
sideratiOn Of the general plan, and so
he moved that the whole matter of
wharf policy be referred to a special
committee Pulaa favored the passage
Of the item at 100000 saying that
amount should be sufficient. Aylett IA
vored the proposal TO investigate and
then KeIiinoi moved to amend the mo-
ton to refer to a special committee. so
that the committee should be appointed
by the Speaker Of the House.
HARRIS PLEADS FOR WHARF.
Harris made a long and forcible ar
gument in favor Of immediate settle
ment of the question. He showed the
tremendous increase in the tonnage OF
the port and then advanced the propo-
sition that the drayage OF goods from
the railroad wharf was sixty cents a
ton. while IL the new wharves were built
the drayaSe would be only forty cents.
He showed that the railroad wharves
are earning a fair percentage on valu-
ati0n OF 81, 900, 900, and consequently the
Conformation would mean very large
expenditure

expectation of good handling of the

not professionals.
SPORT WILL BE FINE.
1t will not be a one race day either,
though that seemed to be the gossip
of the streets yesterday. OF course
there will be chief interest in one event,
the mile dash, which will bring to
gether Weller, Racine Murphy and
Carter Harrison, Jr., in a match which
should have the people in the stands,
on their feet all the way. The speeu-
lators tried to force Weller into the
position of favorite yesterday, but there
were so many fanciers of the others,
that the investments made were prin-
cipally on the basis of even money on
each entry.
This should be the race of the day.

ChilIingworth renewed the motion
that the committee of the whole report
to the House with a request that a
special committee be appointed, he TAX
ing the position that that alone was
the proper course of procedure. The
motion to refer to a special committee
was lost, thirteen to fourteen. The item
was then put in the bill at 100000, by
a vote of seventeen ayes.
The committee then rose and the
House took a recess to ? o'clock.
MAUI RAIDS THE BILL.
Immediately upon reassembling the
House took up the Loan bill and passed
Sc, 900 for McGregors landing, Maui.
Beckley had inserted an appropriation
of $4,000 for a wharf at Pukoo, Molo-
kai Pail Immediately moved $4,000 for
a wharf at Lahaina, and there was a
spirited little debate. Beckley declared
that 5000. 900 had been cut out of the
bill at the morning session and Maui
wanted it's share. Aylett and Knudsen
wanted a special committee to pro rate
the $500. 900 between the islands but the
Maui raiders had the votes. The $50. 900
was appropriated for Lahaina. Fer
nandez secured $50, 900 for Honokaa:
Haia and his fellow Maui men then got
$50. 900 for Kahului
Aylett returned to the attack on the
5000. 900. moving that that amount be
apportioned among the various coun-
ties. There was a long discussion over
the admissibility of the motion, it be-
ing finally ruled out. Long plead for
fairness, saying the amount had been
taken from Honolulu, but the members
were willing that IL be divided between
the other islands Beckley was on his
feet again and insisted that the con-
sideration proceed.
PAUOA OUT OF ORDER.
Kupihea wanted to insert s125,OO0 for
the purchase of the Pauoa springs but
he was ruled out of order. Kumalae
then proposed that there be an item or
SIS. 900 for the rebuilding of the Royal
school but was informed that that was
covered in a later item.
As soon as the item Dredging ho-
noIulu $50. 900" was read. there was
storm AvIett moved to increase IL to
sI25. 900. Vida moved that the item
read Dredging harbor and deepening
bar, 100000" Kalama said as the ga
bu railway and Land Company and the
Bishop estate got oeneht from the
dredging they should be compelled TO
$4,000 10 meet the govern
ment. The item finally passed as n
mended.
All the items relating 10 county
buildings were thrown out for the time
being. The appropriation OF $4,000 Tor
n Pententiary on a continuing CON
tract for $4,000 more was passed az
was S75. 900 for nm insane asylum
and $4,000 for a dlspensary.
