psrtment, agriculture, interior, post
office. state and war building, pension
office, public printing, patent Office,
census office and bureau of engraving
aud printing, have polite attendants
who explain all the interesting de-
tails, and one draws deep breath
and gspes in establishment at the
wonderful and intricate things that
are done in such systematic order.

Statue Damaged

That the beautiful statue, that tribute
to the memory of the great Kameha-
meha l. which stood in Palace Square,
should be defaced by vandals, ought to
arouse the vengeance of all public
spirited citizens of our city. To see
the figure that stood out proudly
against the sky, fallen, a shattered
mass Of former stateliness, a mixed
PIE OF parted grandeur, brings the feel
lngs OF revenge into many breast,

prits no mercy will be shown them.
Where the statue of the great king
once stood, there may be seen today a

Closet. Bath disclaims all knowledge
OF the change but thinks the public is
paying respect to perfection.

Another Supreme Court decision
that Is calculated to create as much
discussion as the slot machine rul-
Ing Is that remitting the fine i'm
posed on the Parkersburg Brewery
for selling In Harrison county with
out local license.
According to this ruling as re
ported the brewers general license
makes 1t possible for the brewer t
establish agencies in counties which
do not grant license
This would seem practically to
put an end to local option In West
Virginia. For If beer may be sole
by the brewery without let or hin
drance the counties will naturally
decide that no license does not pay
and will Issue license not only TO-
beer but other kinds of "booze".
The complete opinion of th'
Court In this case will be awaited
with interest.
