CITIZENS who think Astoria is not
making progress are urged to take a
walk as far as Fourth street, between
Bond and Astor, and view the block of
fine macadamized roadway just laid by
the city. Then. too, It would not be
bad idea for them to cast their eyes
about the city and view the other local
Improvements just completed or under
way Astoria is going ahead as rapid
~ MS any other city of its size in the
state, and there is no need OF apology
from any source except from the ele-
ment that fails to keep up with the ad-
vance that business and trade is max
ing.

IN the past the Push club has
done good work for Astoria in the way
of attracting investors here. The Uni
versal Sash and Door factory was
brought here partially on account of the
efforts of that body. 1t is to be sim

tinue the good work. There is plenty
of room in Astoria for new manufactur-
ing enterprises. We need them. They
are absolutely essential if the city is
to continue TO grow.

R,lo Steam Roller Wrecked

The Government steam roller that
has etse used in Olaa for long time
past is n wreck. The Government was
moving it in charge of Engineers w. ].
Dale and Charles Steele from eleven
miles, Olaa, to the Matson warehouse
for shipment to Kau where it was to
have been put in service by Benton and
Anole, the contractors. The men left
with the roller last Monday morning
and got down to town Thursday night
The roller was left on Volcano street
all night and early Friday morning
they began what proved to be their
last run. AS the machine left the Vol
cano road and turned into Church
street it made a curve and went di-
rectly into the ditch. Both Dale and
Steele had narrow escapes from being
crushed, a quick jumped saved them.
For a few minutes a large volume of
steam came out through the pipes but
Mr.. Dale closed them and Steele pulled
the fire out of the box. Later; the
damage to the machine has proven
not very great, the principal injury
being the breaking of the fywheel,
smokestack and house.-Hilo Herald.

THE TREASURER
HASN'T THE GIFT

Since talking to an Advertiser rep
resentative on Friday evening, Treas
urer Kepoikai has come to the conclu-
sion that the appointing of a Com
missioner of immigration belongs to
the Governor instead of himself He
was led to this belief by consulting the
Organic Act, where in Section so the
following provision appears:
THE manner of appointment and
removal and the tenure of all other
officers shall be provided by law;
and the governor may appoint or
remove any officer whose appoint
ment or removal is not otherwise
provided for"

charges that there is a conspiracy in
the suits brought against E. F. Bishop
for alleged illegal importation of
Koreans. 1t claims to have discovered
| that officials in Honolulu hope to share
\ in any damages recovered from Bishop.
The revelation is made in the trial of
a Korean who was arrested for trying
to bribe Koreans to testify in the
United States court.
The Tribune says:
The Hilo chapter of the scheme
hatched in Honolulu to mulct Faxon
Bishop to the tune of $4,000, on ac-
count of the 113 Koreans employed on
Waiakea and wainaku plantations
came to an abrupt close in the Hilo
Police Court Wednesday morning. A
Korean. giving his name as Chong
Tong Soon. and sent over from Homo
lulu to go among the Koreans and give
bribes for much needed testimony, was
fined S1OO by Judge Hapai and sent
TO tail in default of payment. Loo
Choy. a notorious Chinese sharper. who
was acting as coach for the Korean
was not locked up, but the fate OF mis-
detective partner effectually clipped MS
own claws. The case in Honolulu for
which evidence is wanted is suiS
brought in the name of one Berger
alleging that the plantations in import
ing Korean labor have violated the
Federal immigration law and are sub
iect 10 a fine of $1,000 per head To
make a showing in court 1t was nee
essary to have evidence. Not having
il the next step was to send bribe CIV
ers among the Koreans themselves in
an attempt to induce sorse of them to
swear that they came to Hawaii un-
der contract.
Choy Tong Soon. accompanied by the
notorious Loo Choy, came to Hiio for
that purpose. They first went to Wal
naku. but made little headway in their
efforts. They offered the Korean inter-
prefer 5000 as a beginner, If he would
assist them in cultivating the good
graces of susceptible Koreans. Man
ager John Scott was soon on their trail
and Wainaku became uncomfortable
for them. They then transferred their
operations to Waiakea, where they met
their Waterloo. The Korean "detec-
tive" went among the Korean labor
ers as a physician and dispenser of
drugs. He entered their homes and is
known TO have offered $1,000 to the
Korean who would furnish evidence
that he came to work under a con-
tract.
The Koreans on Waiakea are an hon
est and steady lot of workingmen.
When it was learned by them that
some of their number were giving ear
to the detective" council was held
and the one Korean who showed a dis
position to make an effort for the $1,000
was kicked out of camp.
