The postmaster general in his an
nual report makes a recommenda-
tion which il carried cut Will be of
the greatest value TO all people living
along rural free delivery routes and
to all towns from which thesesroutes
run. He calls attention to the fact
that the present rate OF postage on
merchandise is one cent for each
ounce or sixteen cents pound. He
recommends that a postage rate Of
three cents for a pound or under be
made between points on a rural
route and the town from which such
route starts, provided that the total
weight Of the package be no more
than FIVE pounds. Such a bill will
be of great service to every farmer.
Today the merchandise rates on or

The storm this week has been gen
eral throughout the west, reaching
as far south as Indian Territory.
Though this locality seems to have
escaped the worst, the storm was the
the most severe we have had for
years. The trains were latet from the
cast Tuesday and Wednesday, show
ing that the storm was more severe
in that direction. In Chicago the
wind reached velocity of seventy
two miles an hour, causing several
deaths and considerable loss of prop
erty. At Madison, Wis, the dam
age is estimated at $ioo, 900. Many
trains were abandoned in Wisconsin
and the storm is reported as the
worst ever known there.

poRr ARTHUR AND vLADlvosTok.

The forces assaulting Port Arthur
are probably very strong. When Oya-
ma stopped fighting in the north and
intrenched his whole line, the indica-
tons were that he had sent part OF
his command back to Port Arthur to
participate in the assault. At the same
time, apparently as ruse, he spread
the rumor that he had been re-
enforced by $4,000 men. There is also
the theory that both the northern and
southern armies We're REINFORCED from
home by troops whose places at the
depots and in the forts were taken by
the reserves lately nobilized. In either
event the assaulting force at Port Ar
thur may easily number 100000 men or
about five japanese to one Russian.
If Port Arthur succumbs it will COM
pei the Baltic fleet to depend on vladi-
Vostok as place of concentration re-
pair and supply. That being the case
the japanese may be expected to bend
every energy to capture Vladivostok
before Rojestveusky's ships can arrive
How difficult such a task would be
depends on the accuracy of the report
that complete system of defences has
been created there. What such a sys-
tenn means has been seen at Port Ar
thur. In armament, garrison and ex-
tent of supplies vladivostok is a
stronghold. if all reports are true, of
the first rank. It VIII be no holiday
task to reduce it.

THE CONGRESSIONAL CHOICE.

The Advertiser is not enthusiast
over the Republican nominee for Con
gress, but it holds that he ought to b
elected if for no other reason than t
compass the defeat of his opponents
He is the choice of cells; it may d.
no good to have him but it would Ger
tainIy do harm to have either of thu
others.
Motley is unthinkable. In the las
public office he held, that of collector
of the port of HiIo. he was dismissed
for malfeasance. His capacity for do
ing anything well is rated at a cipher;
his integrity at two ciphers.
.Iaukea is an unstable, vacillating
man. WHO has belonged to all three
parties in a year and cannot be depend
ed upon to move in any given political
direction If the wind changes. He has
confessed to having indeIible spots on
his record. But his most serious fault
as a Delegate in Congress would be
his blind, unreasoning hatred of white
men and white mems measures.
Suppose bill were before the House
to erect a naval station at Pearl Har-
Dor. The first thing Iaukea would think
Of is the number of white voters such
q station would put into the Fifth Dis
traet of Oahu and the probability that
The native voting element there and
zhroughout the island would be out
ciassed. This would dispose Iaukea
against the bill. He would fight it
either openly or secretly. Motley would
st down with one finger in his mouth
and figure on what there would be in
IL for him. AS for Kuhio, he would let
xhe subject interrupt the poker game
only long enough for him to tell Friday
Mcclellan to run over to the lobby of
the capitol and see what had better be
done about it.
likewise in a land measure Suppose
= bill were to come up amending the
Organic Act in a way TO promote the
trarnigration of settlers? Iaukea, for
race reasons, would naturally be
aEainst it Motley would amble down
10 the Land Office to see if he could
get quarter section for himself. Ku-
zlio, If he ever heard of the measure at
ali. would cable home for more money
szad, in the course of squandering it,
zorge1 whether Hawaii was made of
land or green cheese.
on the whole, therefore, Kuhio would
DO the least harm. AS some one of the
1hree nominees must be elected it had
better be him.

A HAcKMAN OUTRAGE.

Tourists frequently complain of the
exorbitant charges imposed upon then
in Honolulu and that their kicks arr
sometimes justifable is shown by
case occurring in front OF the Yours
on Wednesday evening last.
A gentleman, with lady, alightine
from a hack was overheard to ask the
driver what the charge was; being told
$500 for one hour he expostulated
vigorously but cabby coolly looking al
his watch replied that it was after six
O'Clock and that the rates were doubled
at six.
These people taking in the sights
while their steamer was in port, leave
with the feeling that Honolulu is a
yeritabIe robbers roost'' and they are
never backward about expressing that
opinion to their friends and travelling
&C luaintances.
It is by such actions as the above
that the hackmen ruin their own bust
ness. Should these people desire to go
out again while in the city they can
be depended upon to take the street
cars and their friends coming later and
being forewa1ned will do the same, as
no matter how much money man may
have he resents being buncoed.
It does not follow that all hackmenI
pursue such methods but some of them
surely do and the business as a whole
gets the discredit.
The remedy is in the hands of the
1ackmen themselves; they should form
1 protective organization that would
see every case of extortion promptly
by revocation of the driv-
rs license.

zngton that unless memorials or petit

active, influential and non-professional
lobby little or nothing comes of them.

Will Probably Accept Place on In

Washington, Dec. Is.-Friends
of Senator Cockrell saythat he will
accept from President Roosevelt
appointment to a place on the In
terstate Commerce commission.
The president has rendered him a
place either on that commission or
on the Isthmian Canal commission.
Since he returned to Washington
the senator has been carefully con-
sidering the duties Of the two com
missions and, while he has not an
nounced which appointment he will
accept, his friends say there are
very good reasons why he should
prefer to serve on the Interstite

Bright Prospects
For Early Passage ofStatehood Bill
To Be Amended.

Washington, Dec. T3.-Prospects
for the early passage Of the state
hood bill in the senate are thought
here to be extremely bright. The
senate committee has, however. de-
cided to amend the bill in some
features concerning mattersof pure
ly local interest to the territories Of
Oklahoma and Indian Territory,
and il will be reported to the senate
with these amendments. If pass
ed by the senate in this amended
form it will go to a conference
committee, and there is likely to be
no objection on the part Of tie
house to the amended features.
One point agreed upon by the sen
ate committee is that that the capi
tai location shall be leftto the legis-
lature Of the state, providing only
that it shall remain at Guthrie until
1910, or a period Of four years af-
ter the bill becomes effective.
While the committee has not final
ly acted upon the measure, and will
not report until later in the week,
and only vote is necessary.

are made the seats of federal court
