Political News.

A feature of the campaign that
has not been generally discussed Is
the newly arrived foreign vote. This
has been neglected by both parties
since 1892. There are enough of these
foreigners recently naturalized to
turn the election in such close States
as Indiana, New York, and Connect
cut. The Republicans have been
conducting a propaganda among
these voters all over the country
for a year, and much Roadway has
unquestionably been made in inclin-
ing them towards Roosevelt and Fair
banks. The Democrats have ignored
this work thus far.
The Republican situation in Colo
RADIO has not improved, and there is
trouble for the same party in Utah,
where the leading Republican paper
has bolted the State ticket, claiming
that that ticket stands for Smoot
and Mormonism. The Democrats in
Idaho have already fatty repudiated
Mormonism, and are endeavoring to
put their opponents in a position of
sanctioning polygamy.
The field of battle for Presidential
electors is rapidly extending. Ow-
ing to a peculiar condition existing
over the license question in Tennes-
see, the Republicans are making a
threatening diversion in that State,

by no means convinced that Illinois
will not respond to a sturdy cam

YOKOHAMA. September 4.-The
Osaka Mainichi correspondent at the
front has sent his paper the following
statement with regard to the grievances
of the foreign war correspondents: 1t is
with regret that l have to send you a
communication concerning the foreign
war correspondents. The correspond
ents attached to the End Army We're
not on good terms with the authorities
even when they We're still at Tokyo.
Ever since they have been allowed to
follow the army, they have been MAX
ing complaints of various kinds al
though they have shown patience un-
der the hardships incidental 10 cam
paigning. When about to leave Hal
cheng, they applied to the headquarters
for permission to send kilograms to
their papers, but the authorities refused
to comply with the request on the
ground that the time had not yet come
for this to be done Some days after
wards the correspondent again asked
the authorities to allow them to wire
their papers, and produced drafts of the
kilograms which they wished to des-
patch. The authorities gave the same
reply as before. The correspondents,
however, persisted i'm their request, say
ing that their object in following the
troops was to send kilograms to their
papers. But for this, they would not
have come to the Far East. Then
Japanese officer agreed to receive the
drafts of the kilograms, but reserved
the official response to the request.
Eventually the authorities decided to
maintain their former attitude The
officer referred to invited one of the
correspondents to call upon him, when
he returned him the dra- is of al the
kilograms, asking him to restore them
to their writer's. In consequence of
this incident, the correspOn dents be anne
angry with the officer, complaining in
particular that the contents of the wires
had not been kept secret, owing to their
having been handed, as stated above,
to one of the correspondents for dis
tributiOn. They described the officers
conduct as very discourteous. The con-
sequence was that the correspondents
of the Times, Daily Telegraph and
other leading papers, left the Japanese
army for Picking or Tientsin, before the
engagement at 1iaoyang took place.
When ctarting, they are said to have
intimated their intention Of having their

NEW EXCEPTIONS
SUPREME COURT DENIES A MO-
TION IN CASE OF KAPIOLANI ES-
TATE VS.. THURsTON.

The Supreme court this morning gave
decision in the case of the Kapiolani
estate VS.. l.. A. Thurston. The matter
at issue was a motion to allow the adj
dition of neweXceptions to the bill Of
exceptions as originally filed. Afiidavits
were filed to show that a page which
had been prepared containing these eX-
ceptions was omitted by mistake from
the bill as presented to and allowed by
the judge and from the copy served on
opposing counsel
The court denies the motion. The
syllabus states the rule laid down as
follows: "A bill,rof exceptions cannot
be amended by incorporating therein
entirely new exceptions after the time
prescribed by statute for Incorporating
the exceptions in the bill, even though
it may be amended so as to make eX-
ceptions previously incorporated there
in available"

revenge. At any rate l have to record
with great regret that the friction gave
rise 20 a feeling of much animosity be-
tween the correspondents and the au-
thorities.
The Japan Gazette says:
Recent circumstances have proved in
no uncertain way the Importance of
public opinion as a factor in interna-
tional relations. We have no wish at
this time to reopen the unfortunate in
cident of the dissatisfied war cores
pondents and military attaches who
were induced to remain vainly with the
japanese forces, but it is not contested
that it was largely due to representa-
tons from sources, non-Japanese, at
the front (Or near it,, that the recent
heavy tumbles in stocks occurred. The
japanese victory at LiaOyang, first
lauded in Europe as "epOch-marking "
was by their efforts reduced almost to a
defeat, and it will be long before the
effect of the reaction has entirely
passed away. 1t is not alone the merit
of this particular action that was in
question, but the attitude of some world
famed representatives of great journals
has given rise to the belief abroad that
Japan was insincere in her transactions
with these gentlemen. That is an in
tinitely more serious inference than the
fact of their disappointment or the re-
suit of their criticism on passing
events SO
In our opinion the mistake lay with
Tokyo. There are men there who tho
roughly understand the foreigner and
who had no right to throw the onus Of
this matter on the busy generals at
the front. Either they should have
declared that war correspondents would
not be permitted to go to the front or
they should have selected trustworthy
men and seen that they were entirely
trusted by their headquarters staff. 1t
would be no use to refer to this again,
were it not that there is still time TO
adopt a new course. These malcontent
foreigners have left the japanese lines
and have already done much harm and
may continue to do it. A London tele-
gram that appeared in q Shanghai pa
per, recently, reported that one such
correspondent had sent an account to
his journal of The Japanese Plan" in
dicating some of the secret Japanese
movements, There is no reasonable de-
ence, we imagine, for such proceed
ing, and 1t is only referred to here as
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1904-10-07

representing a measure Of the danger
Gus resentment which the treatment Of
these men has aroused It may be that
they were prepared to be friends, and
that their vision and judgment have
thus been insensibly warped to a point
when they sincerely believe they are
conscientiously doing their duty in thus
acting. This is very regretable and
dangerous state of things, for these
men have weight and will not hesitate
to impress their views in the most in
telligent and effective way suggested
by a long practical experience. But,
as We have said, it is not so much what
facts or reports these individuals supply
that will damage Japan as their action
in leaving the Japanese army. 1t is
such over facts as these by which the
general public judges. Marshal Yama-
gata's recent instructions to Marshal
Oyama plainly disclosed that this point
was thoroughly grasped in Tokyo.
It is interesting to notice that the
Russians are reported to have jumped
at this opportunity of dissatisfaction
among war correspondents on the Jap
anese side to try to suborn them to the
Russian side. We may even note in this
connection, a local rumor that the Rus
slams are secretly looking about for an
organ" among the foreign papers in
Yokohama and Kobe.

The era of economy has had its effects
even upon the flag on the Capitol build
ing. When the Stars and Stripes was
hoisted for the first time after annex
alton the flag was Il huge one which
seemed to tax all of the capacity of the
flag staff in the center of the front Of
the building, but the flag has been slow
ly but surely diminishing. Today those
who passed the building were surprised
to the national colors represented
by a flag somewhat smaller than a
pocket handkerchief.

sailor man whose attention the tiny flag
was drawn THAT flag is an right. 1t

And 1 further depose and say
That on Tuesday morning October
a, after seeing in the morning Adver-
tiser a letter published over Governor
Carriers name, declaring that no en-
ployee of the Government should be dis
charged on account of political afficia-
tions. I called to see Mr.. Rowland at
mis- office in the Capitol Building, and
respectfully asked to be reinstated in
the position from which l had been dis
missed, s understood the meaning of
the Governors letter to be that such
should be done,
Mr.. Rowland informed me that he
had seen the letter in the Advertiser,
but had received no orders for my re-
instatement.
On Wednesday October 81, twice, and
again this morning Thursday, l call
ed at the shop where 1 was formerly
employed, and asked Mr.. Cook, the fore
man, If he had received any instructions
concerning my reinstatement, and was
each and every time met with an an
sWer in the negative and a refusal to
reinstate me to the position from which
l had been discharged.
