IAUKEA
MAY BE BOUNCED

Speaking of county offices, Curtis P.
Iaukea stands a good chance of going
into the Home Rule campaign for
Sheriff. or whatever Robert Wilcox
may allow him. with card of dismiss
sal on demerit from the somewhat i'm
portant district office he now holds by
favor of the party he has deserted.
There is understood to be strong Re-
publican demand for his removal from
the position of chairman of the Wal
alua road board AS rendering exec
utive compliance easy, there are said
to be reasons on file, connected with
recent operations of that road board, TO
make the removal of the chairman one
for cause apart from party politics.

TURKEY IN EUROPE.

The powers could put an end to
Turkish rule in Europe IL they chose
to do SO without throwing the control
of the narrow waters which connect
the Black Sea with the Mediterranean
into the hands of Russia. The annex
alton to Greece of Macedonia-its an
cient heritage-and of the eastward
provinces including Constantinople and
the northern shores of the Aegean sea,
would put the control of the Darda-
nelles. Sea of Marmora and Bosporus
into the hands Of n little state that
would maintain their neutrality ana
keep public order. The remainder OF
northern Turkey could be easily divided
between Bulgaria, Servia and Monte
negro. Concert of action between
Great Britain, Germany. Austria, Italy
and the Balkan States could accom-
plish this irrespective of the wishes Of
Russia and France, with the result
that the Balkan question" would be
disposed of for one generation at least.
In such a matter there need be no
special sympathy expressed Tor the
Turk He is an alien encamped upon
the soil of European Oriental out OIL
his place: and as his empire extends
far into Asia he could set himself up
there again and reestablish his power
without much hardship or loss. IN
Asia Minor the Turk would be out of
the way; in Europe he has already
caused many wars and is guilty OF the
worst crimes against that civilization
of which Europe should be the I'M
divided and protected home. While ne
stays, there can be no peace; wheh
he goes the region now controlled by
him should become as peaceful as
Greece or Austria.

Editor Advertiser:-I want to heart
lily endorse the action of the Board OF
Health in its campaign against t'e
mosquitoes.
Before going to the Saturday even
ing meeting / was thoroughly skepti-
cal of the possibility of materially re-
ducing the number Of these pests But
consideration of the results actually
obtained by Prof. ingalls, and others
convinced me that much can be accom-
plished II every citizen will cooperate
Upon my own premises have already
found one prolific breeding place VIZ

others,
am not fond OF seeing my name In

experience of one who was skeptical
toward this NOTWITHSTANDING cam
paign may be OF use TO others who die
not have the opportunity Of attending

FIGHTING THE SUGAR TRUST.

If fear of the sugar trust prevents
Hawaiian planters from seeking an IN
dependent market for their product
they are simply lacking in right ap.-
probation of their own strength.
Combined, even without 1rwlp & Co.,
the Hawaiian planters are vastly
stronger than Claus Spreckels. Yet
sprerkets fought the trust single
handed and compelled it to divide ter
ritory with him. .,- is
Hawaiian planters can mass $50 where
the Arbuckles can collect 81, yet the
latter are fighting the sugar trust with
every prospect of success.
The Advertiser does not doubt that
If the local interests built refinery
and made war for all they were worth

PLANTERS AND FARMERS.

Col u. s. Spalding, whose interesting
letter about small farming from a
plantation standpoint was printed In
this paper yesterday, is quite right in
urging that there should be no rivalry
for possession of the soil between the
big agriculturlst and the little one. SO
far as the Advertiser knows there is
none. The friends of small farming
have no hostility towards plantations
and Col. Spalding assures us that the
planters are not at odds with the small
farmers There is every reason why
this should be the case unless, as Col
Spalding points out, an Increased de-
mand for labor in the future should
embarrass both industries and make
them antagonistic.
There is not so much danger Of this
coming to pass as there was. The Ter
ritorial government, which has right
under law, the benefits Of which are
withheld from private initiative, to i'm
port labor--or promote immigration -
has taken the matter In hand An I'M
migration agent has been appointed
and he will address himself to the task
of bringing in enough Portuguese ana
other laborers to meet whatever de-
velopment of it's agricultural resources
the Territory may achieve. The Adver-
tiser, with faith in the success OF his
plans, does not think that the increase
of small farms, which must necessarily
be slow, will either be felt by the
planters or that the small farms them
selves will suffer for hands to till them.
And in any event the planters must
have the right of way SO long as their
business means more to Hawaii than
any other.
AS to whether the white small farmer
can compete with the importer In sup
plying Col. spalding and otner p,a.n1t.-
ers with butter. beans, potatoes, onions,
barley and the like, the Advertiser
must express doubt. Small farming
here does not mean the small farming
OF the north temperate zone but the
agriculture of the tropics-the produce
ton of sisal tobacco, vanilla, cacao,
pineapples, bananas and-in case Con-
gress helps lttle-of coffee. We
believe that the man who raises these
commodities for export can also pro-
vide vegetables, butter, eggs, berries
and fruit for his own use; but he can
hardly make money In selling them
while California unloads it's agricul-
tural surplus here.

HANGING vs.. ELEc1RocurIoN.

Hanging, when II took the place of
death by the rack and stake, was
step forward in the path OF civiliza-
ton. When 1t was adopted there were no
painless and instant processes Of judi
cial death, the nearest approach TO
them being those supplied by the
headsman with his axe or guillotine.
But capital punishment by the edge
of the steel, though vastly preferabi'
to that by the stake or rack, mace
public executions butchery unworthy
OF the dignity of justice and OF the
humane instincts of man. The pubic
revolted at 1t: and though hanging
was bad enough, 1t was the choice OF
evils. In the then state of science
there was nothing better to serve the
ends OF Justice in capital cases.
But time has changed conditions.
The development of electrical energy
has made possible painless death,
without mutilation Of the body. 70!
many years past the electric chair has
taken the place of the gibbet in the
criminal processes of New York and
perhaps of one or two other States.
Save for the singular hold which prec-
edent and custom has upon the minds
of men OF even the highest civilization,
all States by this time would have
adopted the New York method. 1t Is
humane, impressive, unfailing In Its
work--the ideal instrument Of & justice
which tempers its work with mercy.
Congress would do we'll to require
that civil executions in it's Territories
and possessions be carried on by cleo

The gladiatorial spirit of the Ameri-

as was that of the ancient Romans.
The greatest orator or preacher or
singer or actor could not gather such
an audience at such an admission price
as that which greeted Jeffries and Cor
bett in San Francisco last night
Henry Ward Beecher was in luck when
lecture netted him $500; Edwin
Booth rarely played to $4,000 house

TOURISTS FROM THE ORIENT.

Col. Macfarlane's idea that tourists

The American Navy has good many
accidents in one way or another and
the news of them Ii hailed with glee
in Europei but II may be doubted that
the naval casualty list is any greater
here proportionately than 1t is abroad.
In the United States the press gets
hold Of every mishap; in Europe such
matters are usually withheld from pub
LEGATION. A reporter who tried to get
the particulars of an accident to one
of the Kaiser's ships would certainly
be snubbed and IL his paper took his
side and followed the matter up, Its
editor would go to jail. The penalties
in Russia would be even more severe.
1t is publicity from which the reputa-
ton of the American navy suffers
abroad-not from exceptionally bad
management.

that the first half of the current year

thus far this year equalled, If not ex-

an affectionate regard much wider than
his own vast communion. A Pope who

NOT A BAD LOSS.

We shall soon see the last OF the
steamers conveying Chinese to Mex
ico via Honolulu, If the following AS
ISOLATED Press telegram to the Soas'
papers is authentic:
FL, PASO, Tex, Aug, IA report
from reliable sources has reached hete
that Secretary of State Ramon Corroi
of the Mexican republic has just IS
sued an order that Chinese be exclua-
ed from Mexico. The order Is directed
especially to the western coast along
the Gulf, where Chinese have peeii
arriving by the shipload and scat err
ing throughout the republic, many
finally making their way to the Unit
ed states by smuggling themselves
across the border
Tho order becomes effective at once
and it Is stated that several cargoes
of Chinese, now on the seas ana oes-
tined for Guaymas, State of Sonora
will not be permitted to land.
The next Mexican Congress, when
meets September 16, will, 1t Is sald,
pass a general law for the exclusion
OF all Chinese immigrants.
II Ia not desirable to have coolie
steamers running between China and
Mexico with Honolulu as a port OF
call, especially Il a trade grows up
warranting the vessels in stopping
here both ways. Trade is good thing
to have but public health is more inn
portant, and while so many trading
lines exist from which Hawaii gets
full benefit this Territory can we'll
spare one which is exclusively devoted
to carrying the lower class of people
from one terminal which has cholera
and bubonic plague and returning
from another which has yellow fever.

MAUI, Aug. 15.-''who can beat Billy
White for sheriff." is the burning
question in Maui Republican circles

Is willing to attempt the task and the
friends Of Representative S, Kelinoi
think that he can do It. Kamaainas
shake their heads and remark that
Billy Is hard man to beat. Senator
SAM Kaiue has some mention also
as a possible Home Rule candidate.
Some Republicans have already made
slate of the whole ticket, but perhaps
it would not be fair play to publish y
at present. In this tentative ticket
there's large number of possible can
didates for supervisors which would
seem not to be an attractive lob at

THE BAND CONCERT.
After the baseball game on the 18th,
the Territorial band played in the X.
of P. hall, Wailuku, where a little
dancing party was given,
during the morning OF the 18TH the
band played at the residence of Circuit
Judge Kaiua and in the evening on the
grounds OF the Wailuku native church.
This morning the boys are giving a
concert also and this evening will play
at the Maui Hotel where dance will
be given by Mr.. and Mrs. G. B. Rob-
ertson. They will make no visit to
either Puunene, Paia or Hamakuapoko
because of a lack Of necessary arrange
ments for the trip.
Tomorrow they will depart for La
hama and will remain there until
Tuesday evening when they will re-
turn to Honolulu per Lehua.
THE BALL GAME.
Last Sunday afternoon the Morning
Stars won q baseball game from the
Kahuluis by very small margin,
which victory will probably make them
the champions of Maui for the second
season. If the Wailukus should win
every game from this time onward
they could tie the Stars but this Is
hardly possible.
