plished His Purpose to Take
HE N,, go

Sibley. Ia, July 27.-The funeral Of
Fred Hokuf, the murderer of Peter
Johnson. was held this afternoon at the
Jail and the remains Inferred in the
local cemetery by the relatives OF
tHokuf. The man died early yesterday
morning. the result Of a bullet fired
by his own hand Friday afternoon.
1! From the time of the operation to
the moment that Hokuf breathed his
last, his wife and relatives were with
him at the Jail. All others were ex-
,cluded. The services were held this
fWasser, pastor of the Methodist church
officiating.
Hoku was very weak when he came
from under the influence of ether. He
called feebly for his wife and relatives
and word vas sent them Immediately!
Hokuf's wife who hasn't been near him
since the day lie confessed to the muir
a mere babe. The meeting between the
murderer and his wife was affecting.
Hokuf cried and his wife, throwing
herself beside his cot, sobbed bitterly
and held the babe toward him to kiss.
The attendants withdrew and tho
couple was left together for some time.
What was said will never be known.
but Hokuf appeared resigned to his
fate after the interview. His father.
mother, brothers and sisters visited
him during the evening and he bade
them all farewell n declared his
Willingness to die.
Sheriff Stevens has not vet discov-
cred where Hokuf got the gun with
which he killed himself. The sheriff
is of the opinion that the murderer
may have secured the weapon from two
cramps who were locked up shortly af-
ter his arrest. To the last Hokut
claimed that he carried the gun into the
Jail with him..
He said that the day he was arrested
by Stevens. he went into the barr and
dropped the revolver between his an
derwear and his skin. The gun was
stopped by his shoe. When the sheriff
searched him at the Jail he found moth
ing in his pockets. After he was locked
up Hokuf claimed that he hid the
weapon in his bunk, keeping it with
the intention of taking his life If the
body of Johnson was discovered.

America in the Pacific.

American interests IN the Pacific nave
rapidly grown. American enterprise has
laid a cable across this, the greatest of
oceans. We have proved in effective fash
ion that we wish the Chinese empire well
and desire Its integrity and independence.
Our f%oothoid IN the Philippines greatly
strengthens our position in the COMPETE
ton for the trade of the east; but we are
governing the Philippines in the interest
of the Philippine people themselves. We
have already given them a large share in
their government, and our purpose il to
increase this share as rapidly as they
give evidence of increasing fitness for the
of the islands. whether elective or APP
pointive. are already native Filipinos. We
are now providing for a legislative as
in the future: and it would be eminently
unwisc to declare what our next step will
be until this first step has been taken ana
the results are manifest. To lave gone
ing the islanders a constantly increasing
measure of solf-government would have
been disastrous. At the present moment
to give political independence to the islands
would result in the immediate loss of civil
rights, personal liberty and public order.
the majority of the islanders lave been
given these great boons by us, and only
keep them because we vigilan.ly safe
guard and guarantee them. To Withdraw
time would mean to the average native
the loss of his barely-won civil freedom.
We have established in the islands a gov
by Americans assisted by Fill
pinos. We are steadily striving to trans-
form this into self-govcrnment by the Fill
pinos assisted by Americans.
Party's Lofty Aim.
The principles which we uphold should
appeal to all our countrymen, in all por-
lions of our country. Above all they
should give us strength with the men and
women who are the spiritual heirs of those
who upheld the hands of Abraham In
coin: for we are striving to do our work in
the spirit with which Lincoln approached
his. During the seven years that have
Just passed there is no duty. domestic or
foreign, which We have shirked; no nee
| essary task which we have feared to un-
dertake, or which we have not performed
with reasonable efficiency. We have new
er pleaded impotence. We have never
sought refuge in criticism and complaint
instead Of action. We face the future
with our past and our present as guar
antors Of our PROMISES; and we are con-
tent to stand or to fall by the record
which we have made and are making.

CAR SMASHED

A trolley car on the Montgomery street
line crashed into the rear Of truck load
ed with scrap paper on Montgomery
street near Brunswick street shortly after
twelve o'clock today. The car was well
filed with passengers but nobody was in
jured. The front framework Of the car
was pushed in and broken glass scattered
in every direction. Many of the passeng-
ers were frightened but most of them re-
tanned their seat and treated the smash
up as joke.
The accident was due to the fact that
the brake on the car would not work.
The truck was owned by the Reynolds
Boyle Paper Co. After the accident the
disabled car was pushed up the hill and
sent to the repair shops, the passengers
being transferred at Bergen avenue to
another car.

Perhaps it's unfair to criticise any
body fer the present dirty condition of
the streets. But it's politics, pure and
simple. The housewife hasn't got on to

Everybody anticipates wind. Human

it during the past winter But this wind

why thus?' is asked.
The whole truth of the matter is that
the streets are dirty and the remedy is
an appropriation for street cleaning.
There has been no time within two
decades of the city's history when the
streets of the city were in worse condi-
