AuOthel Coward Stroke.

The false purism OF the "Advertis-

OF Walter g Smith, the papers
editor, is disclosed by the publica-
tion in this mornings issue in bold
letter, "scsre" heading, OF a scandal.
Gus, possibly libelous, undoubtedly

Business OF the Maui Circuit

business now hanging ere Is the

The Advertiser complains that
the Islands are becoming more and
more Orientslizsd. Who did it 7
Who arc doing iti We will answer
the question and defy contra
diotion: l. A Thurston, owner
OF the Advertiser, his business as
soeiates and his immediate friends.
1t is a kind OF sscrilege for man in
che position Of Mr. Thurston to get
out at this time and whine about
Oriental invasion. The laboring
element OF the Islands and the un-
hsmpered press gave the warning
years ago of the cloud on the boriz-
on. To place OF doing anything to
avert thestorm the plantation ele-
ment did everything in its power to
make it more severe. The greed for
dividends did it. Now that the shoe

Mails Baseball Players.

There are officers OF the Baseball
Association who still persist In their
attacks upon the marine players,
who have enlisted with the Male
club for this season. Why We
can figure out no reason other than
these ofIicere, who represent certain
clubs, fear that the marines will
give their respective teams hard
run for their money this year. What
the public wants is swift baseball.
II the Males can put up better ball
by Introducing playere from the
Marine guard, which seems to be
the case, then we say that the Of
6cers of the Association, who have
private axes to grind, should take
their little hammers and walk away
back. The marines ia the Maile
team have proved themselves to be
capable and honest players. They
should be encouraged, in place OF
having cold water thrown on their
efforts at every turu.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1904-05-06
they will carry with them tale
that will hurt the country more
than the Asiatics are doing.

The whole upshot OF the matter
is that ThuTston and his friends
have seversl hundred acres OF rocks
TO dispose OF at a big figure. They
know full well that local people are
"next," and that their only chance
for game is in the sucker market OF
the msiulapd. Dishonest i--yes.

1t is now incumbent upon the
Governor to appoint another Dis
trict Magistrate for the Leper Set
tlement in place Of the late Judge
4 X Nathaniel. We hope that a
much better man will be appointed
aud we can suggest no better one
than VIM Motley, a good aud strong
Republican, a man commanding the
respect and confidence OF the peo-
pie there, one that can be depended
upon, besides being independent, a
virtue very much wanted in country
magistrates.

May District State.


1t is expectd that the vexed ques-
ton of congressional districts will be
taken up also. The last Legislature
failed to reach any agreement on this
subject, although with three congress-
men the state should be districted in
order to comply with constitutional re-
quirements.s Elements among the cit
liens of several portions of the state,
not the home of any of the present
congressman, are agitating the matter
already, in hope of securing district
ing that will increase the chances of
prospective candidates for congress
sional nominations two years hence.
Tax Commission.
The republican state platform de-
clared for the creation of a tax COM
mission, with power to determine for
the purpose of assessment and taxa
ton the value of all corporate prop
erty, both real and personal. to the end
borne without prejudice, favor or in
equality
The platform also declared for the
enactment of an anti pass law, for the
enactment of laws to prevent the ac-
quisition and indefinite holding of
large tracts of state timber lands to
the detriment of small mill owners and
consumers and the enactment of
the State Federation of Labor
Governor elect Mead has said that
he will recommend the enactment of
all these laws, and also has declared
that he will make some specific recon-
mendations concerning the creation of
a railroad commission, says the Post
Intelligencer. Here, therefore, are leg
islative subjects sufficient to keep the
ordinary Legislature busy for some
time
The labor legislation urged by the
State Federation of Labor includes the
fellow servant law and an anti-com-
pany store law, both of which meas
ures are prolific causes of debate and
squabble in every legislature in which
they come up.
