THRILLED SOUTH

The campaign is we'll in
hand. No argument is needed
this time with the people of
Maryland. Just get your
shoulders together and do
your duty. That is all there
is in this fight. Make a resolve
that you will do now in 1908
your duty as we did ours in
1866. Do you remember that
picture? Can it ever be for
gotten how the Republican
party Inundated, kept down,
trod under foot and almost
took the manhood out of every
man south of the Potomac
river at a time when they
had submitted after one of the
greatest struggles in the history
of the world, when their homes
were desolated, their money
gone and they had neither the
comforts nor necessities of life?
In Maryland we resolved that
this yoke should no longer hang
about our necks, and we threw
it off. Maryland led the way
and sent a thrill through the
whole South when we repealed
the Constitution that was
grinding us. That question
has been disposed of and now
the struggle is on over another
great question
''The people are beginning to
see the threatened radicalism
of this President of the United
States. He sees the necessity
of being sustained in his policy.
and makes Maryland tine bat
tleground. Let us accept this
challenge. Make Maryland the
battle-ground and we will save
the liberties of the people in
the end. "-Senator German.

tive that he put the money in it's
usual receptacle, a chest in the
office, and he stuck to this story.
There we're only three keys to the
establishment, one each in the keep
of the two clerks and one held byMr
Dee himself AS the doors were found
properly locked on the morning in
question, and there appeared no
other avenue of entrance or depart
ure, it seemed certain that the trick
was accomplished by a skilled bur-
glar with either a duplicate or
skeleton key.
Every conceivable effort has been
exercised to follow up the case and,
if possible, detect the burglar, but
to no purpose. Yesterday the
burglar was found. Mr. Dee was
rummagipg amid pile OF old
books, papers, etc, under his desk
for something when he suddenly
struck and drew forth bag-and
in the Tag was the lost money.
The explanation is that the clerk,
at the late hour of 11I30, was "tired
and sleepy,too," "and mistook the desk
for the chest in the other corner.
Mr. Dee will entertain his friends
on the 3lst of the present month
in appreciation OF his good luck.

age Veto.
There was something humorous
in the House on Thursday during
the discussion on the Language Re-
solution 1t began while Rspresen-
tative Keliinoi was speaking, Repre-
sentative Pulaa moved the previous
question; the Speaker said that he
would not entertain such motion,
after he had been speaking for half
an hour and was ordered down.
Later on, Representative Kupihea
made the same motion, when the
Speaker told him 10 "sit down, you
are out of ORDER" While Keliinol
was still speaking, Representative
Wright, who seemed to have got
up out. of deep stupor, said: "Mr
Speaker,I have a COMMITTEES report {"
"Sit down." sharply rosred out the
Speaker, and there wss laughter all
over the House, ths mover a'so join-
ing In.
Then Keliinoi get after those who
had interfered whereby he had no
doubt lost over five minutes Of his
time The rest is as already reported.

TOPICS OR THE DAY.


Senate Bill 21, which is following
up the Beer Bill in the Legislature,
is coming to be known as "the H.
quor dealers BILL" inasmuch as ii
was put in by them and is receiving
their united support. II provides
Tor full retail licenses, in any num-
ber, within three miles Of the Post
office at the present rate OF 81 900,
and for the same licenses beyond
that limit at $500. The original
object Of the bill was to enable
some OF the saloons to move from
ths crowded, Hotel strest district.
Its effects, however, will plainly be
to conflict with the Beer Bill. and
bring about condition Of "the
survival OF the fittest" under the
two license acts. The bills form
precursor of conflict between the
brewery and beer people on the one
side aud the full license dealers on
the o.her.

County Bill All Right.

The Joint Conference Com mittee
on the County Bill has agreed upon
it's report, and will submit it's con-
illusions to the Legislature on Mou-
day evening. The meeting at which
ultimate results were reached was
held last evening. For so:.e rea-
son best known to themselves Ka-
niho and Fernandez were absent.
In regard to the Boards OF Su-
pervisors it was agreed that the
Oahu board should consist of seven
memberr, two each from the Fourth
and Fifth districts and three at
large. In each Of the other dis
tricts OF the Islands the boards are
to consist OF five members. The
parvisors are TO receive a salary
OF $50 a month each. District
magistrates and road overseers OF
the various districts ware TO be ap-
pointed by the supervisors.
The incoms tax exemption was
fixed at 81 800, the Senate having
passed it at $1,000 and the Hou Q
at $1,000.
A feature OF the meeting was the
withdrawal by Aylett of his amend
ment requiring hackmeu TO be able
to speak and write the English or
Hawaiian Languages, leaving them
merely to qualify as hack drivtr,.
He explained that he intended
bringing in separate bill covering
the point.
The most important accomplish.
mept, perhaps, was a conclusion to
leave the school system OF the Isl-
ands as it now is, not turning ii over
to the several counties as was pro-
posed by the Houe. Mr Keliinoi,
The original sponsor OF county con-
troll and father Of the House amend
ment to that end, himsslf oGsred to
give up tie project. He denied
that bis proposal was made through
spite, as some had charged. He
had most carefully studied the
school question and believed that
to turn the system over to the
! eonntiss would bs the b,st arrange
ment possible, Ia the interest OF
the wnole-in order that County
bill might pass, howsysrv-he would
withdraw the amendment, Applaus
followed the conclusion OF the
Speakers remarks.
After ag eeing upon a few minor
details, motion by Harris that the
| report be adopted was spstsined and
the COMMITTEES adjourned.

Representative Keliinoi spoke in
much the same strain. He said that
he had pledged himself to do what
was asked in the resolution and

THE DUAL LANGUAGES,

During the discussion on Thurs
day on veto of the Pulaa Language
Resolution, introduced to comply
with one of the planks of the Re-
publican party's platform Of the last
campaign, fear was expressed by
Speaker Beckley that its being
adopted, by not sustaining the Gov
ernor's veto, might endanger the
free franchise that the people OF
this Territory now enjoy, should
Congress ever take it up and retail
ate on US here. Such fear cannot
be borne out by aug facts, and we
feel that it is entirely unfounded
and utterly uncalled for, and we beg
to differ from the worthy young
Speaker. We think that it might
have been better had such fear not
been expressed. Did Congress, when
it enacted the Organic Act, expect oil
the people of this country to be-

few years after being annext against

speaking in favor of the veto, beipg &
the only one who was bold enough
to take such stand as against his
former campaign stand; ard he as
serted further that none loved this
country, its people, flag aud institu-
tions better than he himself did, but
he was willing to give way in order
to gain much higher aspiration,
whereby we might govern ourselves
more indie pendently than at present,
epj )yipg moro liberties than we do
under our present form OF govern.
ment While speaking Representative
Kuudsen asked If they had not al

Congress for Statehood and was
answered affirmatively.
For ourselves, we fail to grasp
his views nor do we see breakers
ahead in having The two languages.
Not yet being efficiently schooled
up to Americauism, we cannot see
why that should keep and bold us
back from forging ahead. Prior
to annexation, while the two Ian
guages vera used in Legislative pro-
ceedings, the language Of he strang-
er, entirely foreign from that OF
this country, was made the legal
and binding one to the precedence
over the native language of the
country, did it then retard the ad
vancement and progress OF the then
nation7 We answer-No. 1t has
been admitted that the stride for
ward made by this little country
since the advent of civilization was
most wonderful, and that it was
perfectly fitted to be taken in as q
part of the great American Union
without leave of the people, the
majority OF whom did not under

querors.

The business of this country,
officially and commercially, has al.
ways been conducted in the Eng
lish language: Our standard OF
education has been admitted TO be
far in advance of other parts of the
world, the illiteracy being about
five percent, but OF course, the Eng
lish standard being small. 1t was
only during the last thirty years or
so that the English language was
eagerly sought by the people and
the schools have been entirely Eug-
lish since. yet the standard in Eng
is not as great as it might have
been, but it is steadily Increasing
and advancing. The Hawa ian peo-
pie in general have been placed at 8
disadvantage, yet they now have
their Language as part Ia the legis-
lative deliberations. Soma say why
should they want more, for the LAM
guage of the governing power is
English, and that in conceding the
use of the Hawaiian language, it is
more than was expected. That may
be 80, but a knowledge OF either
language is necessary qualification
for one to bscome o voter.

LONDON FURNITURE MEN ANGRY.
Incensed by Lord Curzon's Disparaging Re-
marks at Delhi.

London. Jan Lord Curzon has brought
down on himself the wrath Of the furniture deal
ers of Great Britain by disparaging allusion In
his speech at the opening of the Art Exhibition
at Delhi on December so to "Tottenham Court
Road furniture. its cheap Italian mosaics and
flaming brussels carpets" and appealing TO the
maharaja jahs to furnish their palaces with Indian
work rather than with those British products. Sir
John Blundell Maple, M. P, who is governor of
Messrs. Maple & Co. furniture dealers, of the
Tottenham Court Road. leads the attack on the
viceroy and clinches his Indictment by show
ing a letter dated from the Viceregal Lodge at
Calcutta, ordering carpets for Lord Curzon HIM
self. and requesting that the order be duplicated
yearly. Other documents show that Lord Cur
quite recently received a consignment of
Tottenham Court Road chairs, and that the
whole of the viceregal Lodge at Simla is fur
nished from the same source.

A TALK WITH CASTRO.
Says the Solution of the Trouble Lies With
the Allies.

Caracas Venezuela, Jan There have been
persistent rurnors in official circles and general
ly throughout this city since yesterday that
President Castro had refused TO agree to the
proposals of the allies to refer the Venezuelan
issues to The Hague. The correspondent of the
Associated Press the President of Venezuela
for half hour at o'clock this afternoon. It
is not true that the President has declined the
proposals Of the powers; the Chief Executive
declares he wants only fair treatment. It was
clear from what President Castro said at the
interview that he believes it would be very easy
10 reach full settlement of the entire contro-
versy. President Castro said to the correspond
ent:
IF a settlement is not reached it will he be-
cause settlement forms part of the plan of
the allies. In this case the prolongation Of the
present situation would be disastrous for all
concerned. The solution of the present difficulty
depends the allied powers than on
Venezuela
The President asked whether or not he
would renounce the Presidency and if it was his
purpose TO make a change in the present
Cabinet. He replied: People are at liberty to
talk whatever nonsense they want to; I will
make change in the Cabinet when the present
serious question is ended

ALLIES NOT HEARD FROM.
Castro Attached Condition to Acceptance
of Arbitration

Washington, Jan. 1.-The rejoinders Of the
European Foreign Offices to President Castro s
reply to their arbitration proposal have not
reached Washington. This. however, occasions
no surprise, as the holidays much more
closely observed in European capitals than in
Washington. Following the rule which it has
adopted in the treatment Of correspondence
passing between Venezuela and the allies, the
State Department still declines to make public
any information respecting the details of Presi-
dent Castro's reply but inquiry confirms the re-
port from Rome TO the effect that Castro did
attach a condition to the acceptance OF the arbi-
tration proposal, and that condition was not in
dorsed by the Washington government. How
ever it is pointed out that il has not been re-
garded as necessary at the State Department
either to approve disapprove any of the de-
tails of the propositions now passing between
the principals Al TO the condition attached to
the acceptance, it be said that 1t is not OF
great consequence, nor is it likely to involve the
loss of the arbitration project, for IL is under
stood to relate rather to the means Of getting
the issue to arbitration than to substantial prin
ciple involved.
