TRUSTY AND LIQUOR.

The statement of High Sheriff Brown,
printed elsewhere, absolves that officer
from all shadow OF blame in connection
with the lamentable tragedy in the
city prison yesterday morning. The
system of having TRUSTEES about Prisons
is as old as prisons themselves. There
are certain mental tasks, in all jails,
that must be performed by prisoners
themselves, in the interest of discipline
and of cleanliness. Prisoners must be
compelled to clean up after themselves.
III they We're not, prisons would soon
become so foul that even the jailors
would not be safe from those con-
tagions having their birth in filth. And,
necessarily, there must be certain
trust in the prisoners who do this work,
That they should fail in their trust, at
times, is to be expected. That they
should fail in ii, especially, when the
temptation to drink falls in their way.
Is certain. And yet the liquor that
these men stole and drank, was in the
prison offices because 1t had to be kept
there, 1t was evidence, in the kt eping
of officers of the courts of the Terri
tory. A prisoner gained access to 1t,
in one of those rare moments when
nobody CHANGED to be watching him,
and the tragedy in the prison followed,
That Is the whole story.

HlLO IS DISTURBED.

Hilo seems to have taken to heart the
application for an electric railroad fran
chise, through it's streets and to Ha.
kalau, and from the sentiments ex'
pressed by the journals of the Rainy
City, there will be fight all along the
line before the Legislature allows the
franchise to get through.
There are two reasons why the Hilo-
ties do not fancy the franchise as II
now appears, first that under 1t the
railroad, providing of course that Con-
gress shall ratify its rights, may Use
the roads and bridges, the effect being
to destroy the usefulness of the high
ways, and second that the effect would
| be to Immediately stop progress upon
the Hilo Kohala line, on which it is
| still expected that work Will begin
within two months.
| The former feature of the matter has
been discussed and the promoters of
the road say that they will have bet
| ter line If they abandon the proposal
for the use of the roads, and secure
their own right of way. In fact it has
been said that they are prepared to ac-
cept amendments aimed at the accom-
plishment of these ends.
AS to the discouraging feature of the
matter that is another story. 1t APP
pears from the statements of President
Gehr of the kohala and Hilo road that
the financial arrangements are in such
shape that the contracts for ten miles
of the line, may be let in such time as
to permit of the actual construction
work beginning on June list. Certainly
If this has substantial foundation, the
granting of a second franchise. to COW
er the same route, might tend to dis
courage the financing of the road, but
there is n feature which enters into the
calculations which must not be over
looked, If the building of the Kohala
line is undertaken this summer. and
progress commensurate with the impor-
lance of the plan is scored, there Will
be demonstrated, before Congress
meets next winter, the capacity of the
railroad 10 put through its plans and
the difficulties of financiering will lie
against the electric company.
There is not room for two lines along
the Hamakua coast on the basis of tae
travel. Where one would pay the two
would struggle and perhaps combine
and force the rates above the living
point. The people are reused over the
franchise and representations are being
made which will bring the matter prom
inently before the legislators soon

No one need fear Manila sugar very
much. A recent issue of the Ameri-
can says: I'm Negroes there are thou
sands of acres Of sugar-cane rotting on
the plantations because of the lack of
necessary labor to harvest the crop.
Across at Capiz the natives are starv-
ing and crying for assistance from the
government. The planters have offered
every inducement to these starving ma
tives. Wages unheard of in the his
tory of the country will be paid. But
no, the Capiz natives would starve be-
fore they would work. They have
heard in an indefinite way that the
American authorities would take care
of them If the worst came. And the
cane may rot and millions of dollars of
invested capital remain idle, just be-
cause the Filipinos will not work. nor
the native politicians, through their in
fluence with the powers that be, allow
any other race do the work. Truly,
our friends at Washington, and other
benevolent assimilation friends in other
sections of the United States, need
their eyes opened"

THE CHINESE FUND.

the Chinese Fund appears to be ar
orphan without guardian.
senator Brown has introduced a bill
to provide 1t with guardian. He pro-
poses that the fund, which amounts to
approximately S155,0OO, shall be turned
over to some bank as a trustee, who
Shall pay to each Chinaman entitled
thereto, when he returns to China, the
amount of his deposit.
According to Senator Browns pro-
gram the Trustee Bank would also be
the residuary legatee of all the money
uncalled for. This amount will be very
large, for it is a well known fact that
many of the laborers deserted their con-
tracts and forfeited any amount they
were entitled to by so doing. Many
the bank treating the deposit as part
of its capital and loaning it out
Altogether the bank trustee provided
for under Mr.. Browns bill would have
soft snap.
The bill upon the same subject intro
duced by Senator McCandess is much
more in the public interest than that
Ct Senator Brown.
The McCandless bill provides that the
money shall be paid into the Treasury
and disbursed therefrom from time to
time to the Cinnamon entitled thereto
as they depart for China.
The difference in the status of the
fund under the two bills is that under
others will not return to China and
consequently their deposits will remain
undrawn.
There is no provision in the bill for
the payment of any interest by the
bank, nor is there anything to prevent
the Brown bill the private trustee gets
the benefit of the interest and would be
the final owner of all money not called
for whereas under the McCandless bill
the public would receive these bene-
fits. -.--
The public saved $4,000 in interest
during the past period by having con-
troll of this fund.
The difficulty, and the sole difficulty,
with the past status of the fund was
that instead of being covered into the
Treasury it was held in the nature of a
special deposit without any special
person authorized by law to care for it.
If the McCandless bill becomes a law
the fund will then be in the lawful
custody of the Treasury under the
same conditions as other Treasury
funds.

Augustus Beitzell's American Military
drama, White Squaw." is universally
recognized as a literary masterpiece OF
modern time. Standing preemi-
nently alone from all other mill
tary dramas. the influence of higher
order OF intelligence is visibly noticeable
in this classic for the duality OF intellec-
tual qualification with theatric embellish-
ment, is combination which is a rarity
and one which always appeals to a public
who recognize aud appreciate the efforts
of the artist who brings the ideality of
purest thought to representation on the
dramatic stage. Never in the history of
drama has there been SO much sumptous
production given classic as the present
spectacle. where everything is new and
as perfectly complete as brains and mon

ferina away from the conventional. and

from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
