RAIL ROADING
 UNDER DIFFICULTIES.

The first passenger trains south since the flood came in about noon today. They were Nos. 17, the Hot Springs special, 5 and 9. The trains had to get here by a rather roundabout way. They left St. Louis and went to River side over the Iron Mountain tracks. From Riverside they went to Boone Terre over the M. R. & B. T., thence to Delta, then to Dexter and in over the Cat.
 An idea of the time it took to make the trip may be gained when it is considered that No. IF left St. Louis about 8 o'clock last night and reachede here at II this morning. This train usu- ally makes the trip in about six hours.
 The Kitten went out this morning as far as Dexter for the first time since last Saturday morning. All these trains were loaded down with delayed mail and baggage, and the mail clerks, baggage men and express mes sengers were kept busy handling it. Poplar Bluff Citizen-Demo- crat.

ITALIAN EMlcRANTS.

A series of reports on emigration
to the United States is being issued by
the Department of Commerce which
give most valuable information on the
number and character of foreigners
added to our population. These re.
lorts give the distribution OF the for.
cign element as determined by the
census, supplemented by description
of the home surroundings and general
character of the various nationalties
furnished by American Consuls.
One Of these reports of particular
interest to Hawaii deals at length with
the home conditions Of Italian emf
grants Of which this Territory has a
small representation and would gladly
immigrant travel could be turned to
this particular section of the country.
The United States and South America
have always taken the larger portion
of Italians and of late years the tide
OF travel has turned particularly to the
United States on account of the diff.
cult economic and commercial condi.
tons in South American countries.
Consul Byington at Naples says
that the great majority OF the emf.
grants from that section are agricul.
turists, strong and willing to work

SUPREME COURT CANDIDATES,

Qualification that the candidates for
the Territorial Supreme Bench are of a
high order inspires the soul of the
morning press to congratulate itself
upon the most disreputable and malic-
ious campaign against judicial officers
that has ever been known in an Amer
lean Territory. Granted that the list
of candidates does not include Frear
and Perry, who have shown themselves
either as vicious as the morning paper
proprietor or his weak tools, there Is
cause for satisfaction in the awakening
of this community to action that the
highest Territorial court may be res
cued from its present factional major
ity.
Frear and Perry doubtless thought
they had done great thing when they
slaughtered Humphreys and Davis on
the chop block of prejudice. Perhaps
they did do a great thing in rousing
tory to a more complete realization of
the absolute necessity for the appoint
ment of Justices to the Supreme Bench
who will be guided by the law and the
evidence. Aside from this these JUS
tees succeeded in destroying what
ever confidence has been placed in the
mandates of the highest Territorial
court.
Frear's failure TO recognize his dis
qualification in passing judgment on
the county law is no less remarkable
than his conclusion that he was quail
fed to pass on the Davis case, despite
his being a stakeholder in the Oahu
railway and under pay of the CON-
pany's bondholders. Perry's position
is no more satisfactory as showing a
proper regard Tor the integrity of a
court Of justice. His relations with
Davis were such that he could never
serve in jury trial of Davis, but he
decides that he is competent to pass
on Davis action in a judicial trial.
The result of judicial history made
by these majority Justices is that few
II any, unless 1t be Thurston, have con-
fdence that impartial justice can be
secured in this court. Public confidence
in the Supreme Court is wrecked. The
only hope for the preservation of high
standards as should be characteristic
of every American court is the eleva-
ton OF able nonfactional jurists to
the bench. Such men this Territory
possesses and unless the Department
of Justice recognizes this fact, Ameri.
can justice will become a misnomer in
this Territory.

bers of peasants, willing laborers when
an opportunity presents itself, who
live in caves and grass huts without
doors or windows. These conditions
are not exceptional; they help to ex.
plain why southern Italians emigrate,
In regard to the moral and intellec-
tual status of those going to the United
States from Naples 1t can be said that
the average emigrant from this port Is
a fair representative of the Italian
peasant. Intellectually he is willing
and quick to learn, but is deplorably
ignorant In 1867 the proportion of
Italians who could not read was rs
Fer cent; and in 1881, when the census
was made. 1t was 67 per cent. This
shows an increase in education which
is in all probability due to increased
educational advantages in cities. a
condition which does not concern in
any important degree the Italian emf
grant 4.. ..
y The improvement is much more
marked in the north of Italy than in
the south. The great majority of the
cmigrants are Roman Catholics. II Is
believed that there are very few pau
! pers or beggars among the Nagles emf
grants. They are generally poor peo-
rle. who earnestly desire an opportun-
ity to earn an honest living. AS to
their morality, 1t is that of the ignor-
ant and emotional lower classes OF
their race. 1t Is, however. difficult
for any criminal to leave Naples for
the United States. The Italian emf.
Gration commission exercises rigid
control of this matter. The proper
ton of married persons among Ital-
ian emigrants is very large.
\ good portion of the emigrants
leave their homes with the idea of re.
turning, but as a rule. after one visit
&c their old home, they are not Salts
fled and go back to the States for per-
manent residence. Their wages al
home range from ten to sixty cents q
day, and the surroundings are such
that opportunities in America offer lux.
ury when compared with the average
Italian peasant life.
Italian immigration to these islands
has frequently been urged but earnes,
efforts to turn portion of the tide In
this direction have thus far failed. Ha.
wall certainly offers splendid oppor.
tunities for agriculturalists of thi.
class and the Territory needs the labor
and character 1t can supply. Securing
these immigrants cannot be properly

SUICIDE OF H. L. BRANCH.

The funeral of the late Harry L.
Branch took place Saturday at Tampa.
He committed suicide Thursday night
by shooting himself in the head with a
pistol. He left a note giving six years
of misery from ill health as the cause.
Mr.. Branch was formerly teller of the
First National Bank, later holding Il
responsible position with the Knight &
Wall Hardware Company, and at the
time of his death was Tampa manager
of Capt. James McKays cattle shipping
business. In looking over the papers
and effects of Mr.. Branch a friend dis
covered note, dated June Is last,
which revealed that Mr.. Branch had
been contemplating suicide over a
month ago. The note requested that, in
the event of his sudden death, II. L.
Knight take charge of all his business
and property affairs, and that Mr..
Cleghorn, of Mansfield, O., his brother
in-law, who now has charge of his
children, be made their guardian. Mr..
Branch had evidently abandoned his
idea of killing himself at that time and
had left the note in his pocket.
