REVENUE (UTTLR
BEAR IN PORT

United States customs revenue cut.
ter Bear, 703 tons. arrived OFF port at
daylight today and anchored in Naval
Row, Eva of the French cruiser Pro.
tet, about 2 o'clock. She came from
San Francisco, where she had been
since last winter. The voyage down
was made in eleven days, the cutter
taking 1t easy.
On the way down the Bear touched
into the edge OF the storm which pre-
vailed last week, but was not partic.
ularly delayed by 1t.
On Christmas day the men had a
special dinner and relieved the ordl.
nary humdrum of sea life with music
al and other programs.
The precise movements Of the Beal
from here are not yet known. Her
commander expected definite orders
upon his arrival but found none. The
only thing definitely known is that the
of this group whenever or wherever
necessity may require and that she
will go as far west as the Midway
Islands. She will remain in and
around the group five months and then
will likely sail north.
Most of the officers of the Bear have
visited Honolulu in different vessels
before. Captain Hamlet, Executive
Officer Lieutenant Mead, Lieutenant
Shoemaker and Lieutenant Maxwell
were all here few months ago in the
Thetis. They return with most pleas
ant recollections of Honolulu, ana
look forward with pleasant anticipa.
tons to a renewal of old friendships.
Other officers of the Bear are:
Chief Engineer Derry; Navigating OF.
ficer Lieutenant Wolf; Watch Officers
Lieutenants Shoemaker and Cavell:
Assistant Engineers Maxwell and Clio,
yer, Surgeon DR.. White.
There are fifty-one men on the Bear
and they have an excellent home
there. The vessel Is snug and clean
She hardly had her anchors down be-
fore the men were busy Strengthening
out rigging. cleaning decks and polish
ing brasses. The men are all com
fortably housed. On account of being
so small the Bear will not have gen
eral reception on board here; but the
officers will be very much In evidence
at receptions during the winter
months.

of 1t Is being worked on. II Is report.

The Jury has during the past ses.
sion besides taking up number OF

among these being the Land Office, the
Public Works Department, the DE.

Police Department and others. Some

Of other cases on which the investi

that quite large number OF indict.

probably none OF them will excite
great public interest as has been the
case with some filed few weeks ago.
The present Grand Jury had held

BNGLANO 4 CORRUPT
PRACTICES LAW.

Steady advance OF the American peo.
pie toward forcing corruption out Of and
fair dealing into politics seems 80 slow
that men become discouraged and de
eide that the country must go to the
rad. One has only to study the fight
OF centuries in England for the safe
guarding of the peoples rights to gain
new courage for the contests in which
the opponents Of fair play must even
tually win.
The history of the British Corrupt
Practices law Is one Of the most in.
teresting In the development OF politl.
cal activity. Bribery OF members OF
legislative bodies was quite the proper
thing early in the last century. II Is
recorded that King George III paid
$l25,OOO to pass one bill through Par.
lament At Yorkshire election In
1907 there was paid out to bride the
voters s1.5OO,O00.
Parliament finally took q hand In
passing laws against bribery. As Is
ever the case some Of the laws were
effective, others a whitewashing that
meant nothing. Revision after re-
vision was made, in each instance some
gain being made to check the oppor-
tunity OF corruptionists or at least
impose heavy penalties on them. Re
visions became SO frequent that finally
in 1883 all the laws against corrupt
practices we're consolidated in the pres.
ent act.
This work of British statesmen has
many examples for Americans in the
present effort to take care of the in
dividuals who seek to destroy the in.
tegrlty Of our government. Its bear
ing on elections Is deserving careful
study from all political workers. II Ia
edifying to contemplate what would
happen to a man in England should
he do at elections what is regarded as
quite the proper thing here.
The British Corrupt Practices act
strictly defines what the candidates
and their agents may and may not do.

HoRsETHiEF CAUGHT.

A young Hawaiian was arrested at
Kaneohe at about 1880 last evening

The boy was caught changing a very
tired horse he had been riding for one

Bell. On investigation 1t developed
that the horse the young man had
been riding was stolen by him at Laie
