Hawaiians who happen to see a copy
of the Manila Times of January 4, will
wonder what its leading news article.
which follows, is all about Here is
its headlines and introduction
HAWAII SUGAR GROWERS ARE
ARRATED AGAINST THE PHIL
IPPINES.

PER BY. DEVELOPMENT OF
PRODUCTS NOT GROWN IN UNI
TED STATES, COFFEE OFFERING
THE GREATEST FIELD-COM-
PETITIVE TARIFF FOR SUGAR
WOULD RUIN IMMENSE INDUS
TRY IN AMERICA IT IS CLAIMED.
And now the sugar planters of the
Hawaiian Islands protest against the
further reduction by Congress of the
duty on Philippine sugar imports into
the United States.
These sugar manipulators cite the
address delivered recently by Mr.. Tru-
man G. Palmer at the Trans Mississippi
pi congress at Seattle, as showing con-
clusively what would follow if the de-
mands Of the Philippine Commission
and the commercial interests of the is
lands were acceded to at Washington
The Hawaiian planters would have
Congress remain inactive with refer
ence to sugar and enact such Iegisla-
ton as would foster the DEVELOPMENT
of the coffee industry in the archipeI-
ago.
Using Abraham Louisson of Honolu-
lu as their mouthpiece. the planters
and manufacturers of sugar set forth
the following reasons why the reduc-
ton of duty on sugar exports should
not be made.
Then follows Mr.. Louisson's argu-
ment for coffee culture in the Philip
pines, that gentleman, coffee planter,
being anxious to so expand the Ameri-
can coffee industry as to compel the
tariff protection of the product And
for his pains he is advertised in. Ma
Mia as the mouthpiece of a hostile
Hawaiian sugar industry.

GAS TANKS EXPLODE
SCORE INJURED IN ACCi- GSs
DENT AT CHICAGO.

Chicago, Nov. 19.-Four persons
were killed and score of other per-
sons we're injured by series of gas
explosions that completely destroyed
the plant of the Pyle Electric Head
light company in South Chicago dur
ing the day. The shocks of the ex-
plosions were SO severe that all the
buildings near the demolished plant
we're badly damaged and windows
were shattered for blocks and persons
walking in the streets were thrown
from their feet at a greater distance.
Overpressure on tanks containing gas
is believed to have caused the acci-
dent.
The dead are: Ralph Wells, super
intendent for the Pyle National Elec-
tric Headlight company; Amos Wat
kins, assistant superintendent Tor the
same company; George Muehl, drafts
man, employed by the Peoples Gas
Light and Coke company; Thomas jim
nings, employed by the Pyle National
Electric Headlight company.
All of the dead were buried under
tons of burning timber and hot brick
and iron, making it impossible to re-
move their bodies for hours after the
accident occurred. Firemen poured
water on the portion of the building
in which the dead were thought to be
buried until the flames were subdued
sufficiently to permit of the four dead
bodies being removed from the debris.

A Bouquet for Judge Kingsley.

A Bouquet for Judge Kingsley.
It affords the Times pleasure to note
the ever growing esteem with which
people are regarding our district judge,
the Honorable Nathan Kingsley, who
concluded another term of court at this
place Friday. Judge Kingsley's career
has been watched with much interest
since he first entered politics in this
county some twenty odd years ago as
county attorney. He was a vigorous
prosecutor then, he has developed into
an able, conscientious Judge now. He
is par excellence of judicial tempera.
ment. Calm, unbiased, ever ready to
mete out exact justice without fear or
favor, he has gained the confidence Of
the: bar and people. There is no vindic-
tiveness in his make up, no desire to
exercise undue authority, simply be.
cause he has the power. To our mind
Mr.. Kingsley makes an ideal Judge and
in saying this we are not only rejecting
our owp sentiments but ::those of the
people of this county who have been in
attendance upon court and who have
mentioned his name with sincere kind
ness on more than one occasion. Long
live Judge Kingsley. Preston Times.

when he was 81 owned very small
shoe factory. At that time, machinery
had just been applied to that branch of
manufacturing. AS soon as he got a
little money ahead, he began to adver-

very important fact that the advertis-

Charles Polognio, thirty-three years
old, and Tony Triolo, thirteen years

Although in the opinion of the coro-

bodies were badly burned before they
could be taken from the ruins by the

The fire is supposed to have started
in the cellar of the grocery store Of

flammable material and the flames
spread with lightning-like rapidity.
