The play 'Mr Bob" was given by a
cast of amateurs last evening at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur
Brown at Waikiki. The play was Civ
en- by the Minutes, a Punahou young
ladies society and is the second one
presented by them, the first one "A
Box of Monkeys" being given last
week. Both plays We're given under
the direction of Mr.. ]. F. Brown, and
to his work in training the casts, the
success of the entertainments is due.
The play last evening was enjoyed by
a good sized audience, and that they
were more than pleased with the come
DIV was shown by frequent applause on
their part.
Kenneth Brown as Philip Royson,
and Mr.. H. Forbes as Robert Brown,
played the comedy parts and kept the
audience in good humor throughout
the piece. Kenneth Brown was thor
oughIy at home in his part and brought
a deal of humor out especially in his
scenes with Mr. Forbes, who ably NIL
ed the part of Robert Brown, man OF
MANY titles, and an unwilling, and
willing. victim OF circum-
stances.
Mr.. George Canavarro was very good
as Jenkins, the butler. He not only
looked, but acted the part as well.
Miss Julie Damon appeared very
stately as Rebecca Luke, person with
an ambition to found an asylum for
cats and more than fulfilled a difficult
part.
Miss Alice Brown as Patty the maid

TEACHERS
At SCHOOL
Summer Institute
Ready for
Work.
The Attendance Will Be
Larger Than
Usual.
Registration at Summer School
Is Not Made Compulsory.
Teachers in Charge.

The Summer School or Teachers In
stitute was opened yesterday morning
in the Normal School building on Fort
street. Professor Edgar Wood is in
charge and the first days attendance
| gives promise of an unusually success
full course of summer study.
Probably nearly all of the present
| week will be spent in the work of or
ganization. Only a small portion uf
| the teachers are here, and it will prob
| ably be Saturday before the attend
ance is up to the usual standard To-
days steamer is expected to bring
delegations from Hamakua and Kona
| and Saturday and Sunday will sec all
| those who are coming from either Ha-
wall or Maui on hand. Nearly all of
the Kauai teachers came Sunday.
Attendance at the Summer School is
not compulsory. 1T is a matter of
freedom with the teachers" said Supt.
Atkinson yesterday. If trained teach
ers who have worked considerably wish
to visit abroad, they may find greater
advantages than at the summer school,
in the study of methods in the schools
of their own territory. We are only
too glad to have the older teachers go
away and improve their time in the
States. For the younger teachers it is
thought wise that they should have a
thorough understanding of the work
here and we want them to attend. To
make the work stronger and wider We
always have some one from abroad
who has broad views, where we our
selves may be narrow"
The lectures this year will be by
Professor Rebec of the University of
Michigan, who viii deliver a course
upon Psychology and Pedagogy. Supt.
Atkinson will also make an address to
the teachers upon the formal opening
of the school, This will not occur for
several days, as the work at present is
simply preliminary.
Professor Wood is organizing the
school and arranging the classes for
the teachers. at the same time they
are getting the books which viii be
needed during the seven weeks course
of study. 1t is only the new teachers
that attend from the start. They are
not certain as to the course of study
they Will pursue ana consequently
come early and arrange their work.
The older teachers knowing just what
they Will have to do DELAY their ar
rival until the actual work of the
school begins. 1t is Anticipated that
the attendance this year will be nearly
It's.

who will have charge of the various

THE OFF-YEAR ELECTION.

Electorally this year is decidedly Of
an Off character. To be sure, several
states go through the formality of
choosing governors and other officers.
but generally the result is as much of a
foregone conclusion as it is ordinarily
in Wisconsin. The real battles in most
instances, as there, transpire prior to the
nominating conventions. Rhode Island
New Jersey, Ohio, Massachusetts.
Mississippi, Missouri, Kentucky and
Maryland elect governors in November.
and in every case except that of Mary
land, there is little if any doubt as to
the outcome, and not much in MARYLAND.
North of Dixie republican success is
assured, south Of tia democratic victory
is certain. But in all these states brisk
campaigns are in progress and candi-
dates strive earnestly to awaken popu-
lar enthusiasm. There is little of it.
however. The public is too busy with
other matters to care much what
happens, and nowhere are there issues
to stimulate special interest. The cleo
torate is holding off for the presidential
hurrah. In a time of prosperity, when
wages and the cost1of living are high.
enthusiasm cannot be pushed upward
very far in the political thermometer.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

The Massachusetts democratic state
convention assembled at Boston last
week to nominate candidates for gov
ernor and other state officers. The
platform adopted reaifirms the prin-
ciples OF democracy, declaring that the
democratic party shall fight the trust
oligarchy with Jefferson. 1t denounces
trusts and favors their regulation under
the interstate commerce and taxation
powers Of congress; the admission free
of duty of articles controlled by trusts;
condemns the policy Of conquest and
subjugation; favors reciprocity with
Canada and the election of senators by
the people; condemns the abuse by some
federal courts Of the writ Of Injunction;
favors tribunals or voluntary arbitra-
lions in labor disputes, and opposes the
repeal of the fourteenth or fifteenth
amendments.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

Many of the voters Of both parties
are unalterably opposed to third term
Of county officials, believing that when a
man has held public office for four years
he has had his full share. This year the
republican nominee for county superin-
tendent is asking for third term. He
has had the office for four years and has
boasted that he has saved S75 of his
salary each month, That would be
$4,000 he has saved while holding the
office. Isn't that enough for one man?
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

The voters of Decatur county will
have an opportunity this year of voting
for or against a man who will represent
the interests of the people or for one
who for years has been an active work
or and lobbyist for the G. b. 81 @. e. j..
Sankey, the democratic nominee for rep
lesentative has been tried, and the
people know that he is not in the en-
ploy OF any railroad or corporation. He
pays his fare like any other good citizen
when he rides on the railroad. Not so,
however with Capt. j. d. Brown, the
republican candidate. For many years
he has been an active worker for rail
road interests and when he rides on the
train he never pays a cent of railroad
fare. A fcw years ago when there was
agitation of two cent a
mile law, Capt. Brown worked hard
against it and circulated petition in
this county demonstrating against the
measure. Is that the kind of a man the
farmers OF Decatur county want to rep
resent them in the legislature? We
think not.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

That was u pretty smoothe scheme
worked for the nomination of Marion Il.
Stookey for senator and Capt. j. d.
for representative. stookey was for
Brown and Brown was for Stoolley, and
both arc for the railroad interests, and
and their election will simply be a step
ping stone for j. W. Blythe, the c. b. &
@, magnatc to be elected U. S. Senator.
Are the people going to stand for such
railroad politics?
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15
Eli Hutchinson, the democratic can

Eli Hutchinson, the democratic candi-
date for county superintendent, is a self
made young man who enjoys the esteem
and respect of all who know him. Left
with mother and younger children to
look after by the death of his father, he
has been faithful and dutiful son. He
was not asking for the Office but his
friends pushed him forward. The voters
have chance of assisting worthy
young man in preference to making a
life time job for his opponent. Think
the matter over and if you are opposed
to third terms, vote for Hutchinson.

The little ring who for the time being

The little ring who for the time being
seem to be in control of the republican
party in this county are making a des-
perate effort to whip into line the Cum
Minis faction of the party. When it
comes to nominating candidates and
selecting delegates to conventions the
gang has no use for the Cummins rcpub-
LEANS and then have the audacity to
ask them to lick the hand that smotc
them.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

Tom Wallace is one of the best and
cleanest men that ever asked the voters
of Decatur county to support him for
Office. He would make model sheriff,
fearless in the discharge of his official
duties, while being courteous to every
body. Two years ago he came within
fifteen votes Of being elected, and since
that time he has made many friends
who are anxious to see him elected to
the Office this year.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1903-10-15

The indications at this time are that
the democratic county ticket will be
supported by a large number of good
republicans in Decatur county who are
tired Of the dictation of the little ring
of railroad politicians who are trying to

catur county. While they do not re-
linquish their claim of being true blood
republicans they prefer to see good
clean democrats elected in preference
to the tools OF the ring and the G. B. &
