Present Testimony Show
ing Extortionate Charges
Were Not Warranted,

Congressional investigation of the
question of coal transportation during
the recent famine, as well as the respon-
sibly for high prices, has ended so far
as this congress is concerned, and the
subcommittee Of the house committee
in charge of the investi i5ation will re-
port tomorrow.
Testimony will be submitted in the
report showing that the responsibility
for the recent very high prices rests
upon the coal operators and the coal
roads. Bel ond Offering the testimony
taken, the report makes no comment on
this important feature of the investi-
CATION, except to say that there is not
time enough before the end of this
congress, from which the committee has
It's authority, to completely investigate
this question.
The subcommittee, of which Repre-
sentative Littletield, of Maine. was
made chairman, went to New England
to take testimony on the question Of
water transportation.
The report finds that there were YES
sells enough to carry all the coal that
could be supplied, that the water trans
portation was high because the larger
vessels could only get half and three
quarter cargoes, while there was a scar
city OF small schooners operated at small
cost and which conld get full cargoes.

Comstock mines are already begin

The Lion mine near Carson is to be
started in a few days, and will en-

The Lizard mine, northeast Of the
Comstock, is soon to commence sum-

run by electricity on tailings from
Silver city, is soon to be built on the
ground.
The enlargement of the Davis-Gignox
cyanide plant at Dayton to a 250-ton

Silver city rock crushed at the Rocky
Point mill.
The Comstock Mining companies
have paid every cent of their indebted
ness to the Truckee River General
Electric company under the contract
made two years ago and hereafter
they will pay only for what power
they use.

WILL NOT LEoIsLATE.

The position taken by DR.. Ashmead.
that the wilcox leper bill is out of place
in national legislation, is one which APP
pears entirely tenable and his arraying
of authorities along side his measure
cannot but be gratifying to all true
friends of Hawaii. If the leper states
of the Union want the segregation bill
and desire national control they are
acting within their own rights TO re-
quest Congress to act for them. And
so it must be conceded to Hawaii that
the unfortunates of our own people
should have our care until we appeal
for relief.
The feature that the states of the
mainland would consider it expatria-
ton to have their own unfortunates
sent to Molokai to die touches that
sentiment here that a new and unde-
sirable element should not be introduce
ed into the community of the Terri
torfaI wards. Gov. Dole in his mes
sage calls attention to the decrease in
the number of patients at the Leper
Settlements and it is fair to credit to
Hawaiians as sincere feeling for their
suffering as is entertained by the peo-
pie of the leper states,
While there is no reason to fear pas
sage of inimical legislation at this ses-
sion the fact that men like DR.. Ash
mead are fighting the principle will
give added confidence to Hawaiians
that they need not lose their faith in
the justice of the Congress.

WANT THE LAWS.

An impossible task is before the Ser
geant-at-Arms of the House when he
undertakes to fulfil the commission I'M
der resolution of Saturday. to provide
each member with copies of the laws,
civil and criminal, of 1897.
The edition has been exhausted and
so eagerly have the copies been sought
that according to one attorney a num-
Der OF the volumes placed in the law
library. have mysteriously disappeared.
The civil laws volume is now quoted
at SIS and the criminal laws at $3.50.
though where a sufficient number for
the members of the legislature may be
had is a question.
This item according to the figures
means an expense of about 500 alone
and if there is premium charged will
greatly exceed that sum. 1t will be
interesting to watch this development
at any rate. The chances are that the
ambitious legislators will not get the
copies of the laws.
