JUDGE PARKER's SPEECHES.

Disgust Supporters.


r7,on, the New York Evening SUM-
'Alany years have passed since my
active participation in politics" salu
Judge Parker at Esopus recently. A
snnerduous avowal: the utterances OF
every day bear witness to his ignorance
of nullic affairs and his guileless trust
in rumor. false report and deliberate
instrumentation. We now know why
tbe iudge refused to stump the coun-
try. lie was not posted on the issues
of the day and had nothing to say. A
Rip Van Wrinkle repose on the Dench
had DISQUALIFIED him for the leadership
he was called upon to assume. Inc
world had passed him by while he
droned his decisions in the dignlned
seclusion of court where no echo OF
the burly burly was permitted TO en-
for His income was sufficient for his
wants. He had no ambition but 10
draw if and deserve it. He was very
resnectable figure. and his life was reg
uIoted like a colonial clock. A man to
he envied why did he get down from
his pedestalE
The speeches which Judge Parker is
delivering in an attempt to make
Longstreet finish on the presidential
track bear out the admission that many
wears have passed since his active par
ticipation in politics. Who but a nov

reDted Edward Atkinson as his guide

of the Philippine question: Challenged

fers his baiters to Il letter contributed
bv Atkinson to n Democratic neWspa-
per which was farrago of nonsense
and Il confession of impotence.
The Judges tariff speech few days
ago was an encyclopedia essay which
no newspaper would have found space
for in its columns had it not been read
by Il presidential candidate as a set
niece. The Evening Post. which al

The candidate launched another thun-

round turn by the acting secretary OF

WHY DID HE STRIKE 1T OUTi

Richard OIney Ordered This Para
graph Struck Out of Advance Copy
of His Recent New York Speech.
It is customary before a prominent
person delivers an address to supply
advance copies to the various news as
sociations. which in turn send it to the
newspapers throughout the country.
Richard Olney did this in advance Of
his recent speech in New York city,
In the moment of his earnestness he
penned the paragraph given below, but
before the address was published he
ordered it stricken out. Why did he
do it?
Here is Russia, for example. great
power that would like to be friends
with us, publicly reproved and asked TO
mend her ways because her Jewish sub

About Those Prices,

The usual Democratic bugabOO about
American manufactures being sold at
lower prices abroad is again IN tull
blast. but what of it? Admitting, for
+he sake of argument. the whole
charge. what does it amount tof VINO
has suffered? Not the American wage
Garner because there is no instance on
record of any American manufacturer
having asked his work people to accept
less wages on that portion of his out
mt which lie is compelled to sell at
lower prices abroad than at home De-
cause of the pauper paid labor maze
goods with which he has to compete IN
foreign countries. Inasmuch as the
American wage Garner has not suf1er-
ed if follows that neither the farmer,
tbe storekeeper the house owner nor
any of those whose welfare depends
on the wages of the wage Garner have
suffered.
Sunposing. also for the sake of ar
pument that it was made compulsory
nv law. or even by tariff legislation
that nothing of American manufacture
should be sold for more money ut nome
than what could be got for it abroad
competing against the cheap labor re
ferred to. what would be the result:
Would not the American wage Garner
he Obliged to accept lower wages not
only on what Of his make IS sold
abroad. but on all the output OF ms
brain and hands? More than thal'
woule he not see the call for his labor
reducel as it is notorious that goods
made in cheap labor countries are OF
fered and pushed for sale IN the
MIGHTY market of the United States at
oven lower prices than in the country
Of their manufacture and other coun-
/ tries?
Rut saw the Democrats, the Ameri
can reople as a whole are suHerllg
because an American sewing machine

Iaoves room for another to be made
and the American sewing machine
maker gets his wages over again. St
if goes on. an endless chain, benehtni

machine is true of every other line o

Over ana over again 4 Sls been as

time or the pains TO investigate the
zeal facts in the matter that President
ko1seyolts southern policy has caused
al increase of lawlessness at the south,
as indicated by lynchmgs, burnings,
etc. What is the truth? Lynchings III
this country reached the highest NUM-
Der in 1882 when Benjamin Harrison
was president the number Of lynch
mgs for that wear being 23G. The next
highest number was in 1888, under the
presidency of A.J.,: Cleveland. when
they numbered 20. In 1888, also dur
ing the presidency of Grover Cleye-
land. there were 200 lynchings. These
periods represent the E.sh water mark
of lynching. During the two years III
which Mr. Roosevelt has been IN the
White House there have been fewer
lvnchngs than in any year since 1850
in 1902 there were 96 lynchings and il
1903 there were but 104. These two
years represent the smallest number oI
lynchings since 1888.

Mr.. John 3. Mcdonald, Mr.. David 3.
Hill and Mr.. Thomas Tageart one and
all owe their whole power in politics to
the intimate connection they have es-
tablished between the management of
corporations and the management of
public business. Mr.. Parker was Gre
ated by them, would never have been
thought of except for them and has not
now one chance of success save what
they give him.
"When Mr.. Hill last April, in the New
York state convention which put Judge
Parker forward for the presidential
nomination, declared that the trusts
should be regulated by the state and
not by the nation and when Judge
Parker himself declared that the COM
mon law was sufficient for their reg
ulation, knowing full well that this
meant the abandonment Of every eff
fort to regulate them by the federal
government. Mr.. Hill and Judge Par
ker were bidding for the support of the
great corporations, and bidding for this
support. with reckless disregard of the
interests of the public. Now, as Il
last despairing effort, he inveighs
against them and seeks to obtain votes
by thus attacking them in manner

Judge Parker's statement in yester-
DAYS speech that the president and the
trusts combined in an effort to satisfy
the country that the trusts were op-

simply preposterOus and smacks Of the
rashness of desperation. The Demo
cratic platform, speaking of the trusts,
says:
1--WE specially denOunce rebates and dis
ordinations by transportation companies
as the most potent agency for promoting
and strengthening these unlawful con-
spira cies against trade.
"As a Republican congress at the re-
quest of President Roosevelt has just
passed as drastic an act as is possible to
prepare, striking at all rebates and dis
examinations and eonferring jurisdiction
upon the United States courts to re-
strain and prevent them at the suit Of
the attorney general, how does this rec
ord stand against Judge Parker's asser-

Republican Nominees

The largest and one OF the most de.
monstrative crowds of the campaign
turned out and completely spread 1t.
self over the level lawn Of Aala Park
on Saturday evening to give ear to the
eloquent company Of Republican
speechmakers. All classes. all races,
and, 1t seemed, all persuasions. were
well represented, women and children
gathering in great numbers with the
men and making themselves comfort.
able on the grass. Hawaiian families,
with lunches, were conspicuous, par
taking of refreshment In circled
groups by the light OF innumerable
torches planted round about the plat.
form raised In the middle Of the great
expanse. At least two thousand per.
sons attended the meeting.
John c. Lane and J. II. Dowsett,
Senatorial nominees, were welcomed
by tremendous ovations. They were
cheered again and again. Lane dwelt
ut length and with forceful eloquence
on the great works hitherto accom-.
plished by the Republican party and OF
the work which the party was bound to
see accomplished. He particularly
mentioned efforts to cure leprosy.
pledging the interest OF the party In
this important matter. Dowsett urged
the unqualified support Of Kuhio for
Delegate, giving convincing reasons
heretofore advanced in his mastery
addresses.
Solomon Mahelona spoke In both
English and Hawaiian. This versatile
Fifth District nominee for Represents.
tive was enthusiastically applauded.
His speech in English was as unfalter-
Ing as his Hawaiian address. In the
former he scored the Advertiser for its
attacks on the Fifth District repre-
sentative ticket. The speaker referred
TO the criticism to the effect that the
Fifth's candidates were unfit to run as
being unable TO make laws since they
were not versed in the English Ian
guage.
Mahelona called upon those who
heard him speak In English to bear
witness as to his ability in the hand
ling of that tongue. The demonstra-
ton that followed proved clearly that
the crowd appreciated the speakers
forceful use Of the best English and
Hawaiian.
Mahelona expressed himself as not
favoring legislation protecting gam
bling. He believed that games OF
chance did the people no good and
were a curse not to be tolerated, af'
fecting both individuals and the COM
munity. He strongly characterized ac-
cusations Of opposing factions, In the
