Woodman Mellow With The
Corn Suddenly Decides to
Take the Trip.
ATTEMPTS PURCHASE OF
!. STRICHNINE AT BARKER,S. -:
Told the Clerk He Had Heard
Much Of the Hereafter and
Wanted to See it.

Red liquor is the ACKNOWLEDGED
inspiration for many freak ideas,
but one Of the strangest of them
all was developed this morning
at Barker's drug store when q
stalwart woodsman, with well
developed jag tried to purchase
some strichnine for the purpose
Of suiciding, because, he said, he
wished to see the great beyond.
The man came into the store
about 7:30 this morning and told
the drug clerk he wanted to buy
strichnine. The mans manner
aroused the suspicion Of the,
saleman and he questioned him
as to his object in buying the
poison. i want to see the great
beyond. :" replied the denizen Of
the tall and uncut timber. Il
have been reading in a book
about the great beyond and /
think the whole business is a
fake. / am going to take the
poison and find out for myself. !"
It is prehaps needless to say he
: -
was refused the drug. He talked
very deliberately Of the suicide
which he contemplated and told
the employees Of the store that a
short time ago at Grand Forks
he had taken seven grains of
strichnine with the intention of
suicide. II would have made it
too, he continued with evident
regret, eff they had let me alone,
but they got the doctor around
and he spoiled my plans. :
He stated that during the past
winter he had been working in
Bagley's lumb Der camps and also
gave out the information that he.
Intended to prove the mysteries
of the great hereafter to his own
satisfaction very shortly.
His case was reported to the
police, he was taken to a hotel
and at noon today was sleeping
OFF the effects Of the liquor that
made him curious to learn the
mysteries Of the future.

NOT HEREDITARY.

Badness. Due to a Living Minute
Germ.
Many people, even unto the present
day of grace, consider badness due to
hereditary influence.
Nothing is further from the truth
Badness is caused by the onslaught
of minute organism which secretes
itself beneath the scalp and attacks the
roots of the h,ir-causing it to lose its
life and fall cut.
This organism cannot be got rid Of
except by the free and persevering use
of Newbro's Herpicide.
No matter how badly the scalp is
affected the Dandruff surely disap-
pears and hair health is restored when
Herpicide is applied.

GENERAL WOODS
WIFE COMING

The Chronicle says of the sailing of
the transport Logan for Honolulu:
Major Henry Benham, Twenty-third
Infantry, will sail on the transport Lo-
gan, April 1st, in command of 275 re-
cruits, 100 for field artillery, 125 for
cavalry and so for assignment to the
engineer corps. He viii be accompanied
by First Lieutenants Augustine McIn-
tyre and Jesse Langdon, artillery, and
Second Lieutenants c. E. Hathaway,
Ninth Cavalry. Mrs. Leonard Wood,
wife of Major-General Wood, is one of
the passengers booked for the Logan,
as is Lieutenant-C Colonel Daniel Brush,
Eleventh Infantry, who is assigned to
the spector-Generals Department.
The Army authorities will arm fortv
men for guard duty on the trip. Forty
one Filipino carpenters who have been
at work on the construction Of the Fill
pino concession at the ST. Louis Fair
will sail on the 1st for their island
homes. Major Frank de L. Darlington,
First Infantry, who was in charge of
the Philippine scout detachment sent
here from Manila, has been relieved
from. that duty and will return on the
Logan.

TAXATION BEYOND PRECEDENT.

In his special message, Governor
Carter shows appropriations for eigh-
teen months aggregating s4,sS7, 55O2l.
and an estimated revenue for the same
period of $2,77s. 2O1.O5, or a deficit on
legislative calculations of $1,000. s4s16.
This is a remarkable exhibit. How
long would Secretary of the Treasury
or Chancellor Of the Exchequer hold
his office in the face of such a dis
parity of expenditures and receipts?
But the Governors showing goes
mach further, and proves taxation. in
proportion to population, of which it.
may be fairly said that it is extremely
doubtful whether it. is now approached,
under any form of government He es-
Inmates the taxation Of 1856, 600 people
in this Territory to foot up 81. 100, 100000
per annum. One illustration is enough
TO prove the enormity of this burden,
which in itself is enough to account
for hard times and temporary terri
torial bankruptcy, The population of
California may be roughly estimated
at 100000 or about twelve times that
of the Hawaiian Islands. On the same
basis as cur own, therefore. the annual
taxation for one year in that thriving
State would be s25.s20. 10000 or, for the
quadrennia1 term of the Governor $780,
esO,OOooo. In point of fact, as shown
by the census Of 1900. the total re-
ceipts for 1898 were ss.s44.oO. one
twelfth of which would be $685.. $500. It
follows that the taxes actually collected
in this Territory, in proportion to its
population, are fully three and half
times the amount collected in Califor-
mia, where the entire property. real and
personal, is more than two millions and
a half or at the rate of ss11.44 per
capita.
This is a brief object lesson for our
good citizens and for the Legislature.

place some time ago. but is understood
to have withdrawn. j. G. Pratt, D. H.
Case, c. F. Clemens and others are
also willing to have the presidential
hand strike them.
Governor Carter received no notice
yesterday of the action of President
Roosevelt in determining to remove
Kalua, without waiting for his term to
end. When the news of Kaiua's con-
tinuance of all his cases for the term
was reported to, Carter he cabled the
President of the fact. Yesterday he
received a cable from Attorney General
Knox asking for a confirmation of the
original cablegram, which was prompt
" sent.

TWO ROADS IN POLITICS

Senator Burton, who has been SEN
fenced to the penitentiary, is a type of
the young man who goes into politics
believing that principle is not so much
needed in that business as cleverness.
There are thousands Of such novitiates.
They read the yellow papers which
group leading statesmen as rascals
and believe what the papers say. They
take for granted that Hanna was
rogue and Mckinley his tool. that
Cleveland sold out to Wall street and
that Roosevelt is likely to do so. In
this frame of mind they enter politics
for revenue and are soon hopelessly
smeared with the tarbrush of cor
ruptIon. Then they wake up to dis
cover that honesty is the best policy
even in politics. Sometimes the wax
ing comes in jail.
If there is anything that isn't proved,
under this head, by the career Of the
Burtons, Pcmeroys, Tweeds, Buckleys,
Deverys. ct al, it is proved, from the
opposite standpoint, by the career of
Theodore Roosevelt. One of the best
things that has come of the Roosevelt
Presidency is the lesson it has taught
ambitious American youth. The Pres
ident went into the New York Legisla-
ture as a young man intent upon doing
something for the public. All sorts of
pressure was brought to bear. as he
gained influence. to induce him to put
MP with bad men and bad measures.
Had he done so he might have been
chosen speaker Of the assembly. He |
refused to do so and made himself |
an active reform influence in State |
politics. BY that he lost the speaker /
ship. but he gained the confidence of |
the American people who have larger |
prizes than State speakerships to be-
stow A weaker man. beaten at the start
by corruptionists. might have concluded
that honesty in politics did not pay
That would not have been the con-
clusion of Burton But Theodore
Roosevelt did not ask the question.
Honesty to him is its own reward; and
knowing himself to be right he went
ahead. losing indeed the Office of Mayor
OF New York, but gaining those Of
Governor and President.
The road of the honest man in poll
ties may be sometimes thorny but the
great opportunities for doing good are
along it and fame is at the end. The
road Of the dishonest man may be
broad and a1luring. and it may show
temporary successes, but its end is de-
struction. Roosevelt and Burton are
Of about the same age and, perhaps.
equally bright mentally Each had the
same chance in politics. But when the i
roads parted each took a different one

E. P. Dole did not find it advan-
tageous to canvass in Washington for
an Hawaiian appointment The place
to do that is In Hawaii. 1t is doubtful
whether any candidate for Federal
or Territorial post here can success

are most concerned in the matter. 1t
is the habit of the President to refer
back to Honolulu all the applications
he receives for Office in these islands
