Under an oath to keep secret the
scenes at Port Arthur that were stamp
ed upon his memory on the night that
the Japanese torpedo boats crippled the
Cars battleshfp and cruiser fleet, E.
II. Rigby passed through Honolulu yes
terday on the Pacific Mail liner Sibe-
ria en- route to the mainland and
thence to England, where he may give
a detailed description of the thrilling
events.
Mr.. Rigby was one of the few per-
sons privileged to witness the demoral-
ization of the Russian fleet by Admiral
Togo. and his liberty was granted to
him by Admiral Alexieff only on his
swearing that he would not make pub
lie the damage sustained by his fleet
So intent, however, were the Russian
military authorities on procuring the
Englishman's absence from Port Ar
thur during subsequent operations, that
shortly after the bombardment of the
lily on the morning of the ninth, Mr..
Rigby was summariIy sent away from
the stricken military and naval base.
In making his escape, for such 1T
practically was, Mr.. Rigby carried
away with him valuable mementoes of
that memorable historical event in the
form of snap shot pictures.
Mr. Rigby so far kept his identity a
secret in Honolulu. that his presence
was not generally known until Friday
evening An Advertiser reporter tried
to secure an interview from him during
the evening, but was unable to locate
him up to a m. although he had
registered at the Young Hotel.
The refugee was seen aboard the 81

mperialis IN of Steel.

When the great iron and steel indus
try of the United States thrives, other
American industries thrive. The Dem
ocratic party could not legislate to de-
stroy the protection tn the iron and steel
industry without legislatng to destroy
the prosperity of the United States.
The millions OF additional profit and
wages that have come to the iron and
steel industry under Republican rule
would have been earned. If at all, by
foreign nations, had Democratic policies
prevailed during the last eight years.
The gigantic rise of this industry dur
ing the last eight years added enormous
ly to the wealth of the United States,
and every branch of American industry
and agriculture has been stimulated by
it. prosperity at home and prestige
abroad" has indeed been intimately con
nected with the increasing imperialism of
steel, which once was Pauper but now
is King.

Mr.. DAVIS CONTRIBUTION
Democratic Vice. Presidential Cnndi-
date Draws the Line at $4,000.

A press telegram dated Cumberland
Md, Sept. Z, says:
1T is stated on reliable authority from
Elkins that the campaign contribution
of Henry G.. Davis will not be anything
like the amount the Democratic manag-
ers had expected. He has fixed the
amount for all purposes at $4,000 and
his brother, Col. Thomas b. Davis of
Keyser, w. Va, gave a similar amount:
Mrs. Elkins and Mrs. Arthur Lee,
daughters of Mr. Davis, are known to
have objected to their father contribut-
ing large sums, and his son, John Il.
Davis is said to have done likewise.
-Four years ago John T. Davis spent
a large sum in four counties when his
Uncle Tom was candidate for Con-
gress, but no results were obtained. Col.
Davis being defeated by a large vote.
Since then the Davises have little faith
in politicians judicously expanding
money"
There's some sense in the Davis fam
lily, it appears The ex-senator himself
has always succeeded in hanging on to
his dollars.
How much better it will be to use
some of papa's money to buy pretty bon
nets and gowns with, than to throw them
to the mocking-birds of the Democratic
campaign committed!
And all for nothing, too!

THE WORKINGMAN'S FRIEND.
Railway Firemen Pny n Notable Trib-
ute to President Roosevelt.

No President ever received n more
notable tribute from abor organiza-
ton than Theodore Roosevelt did at the
convention of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen held in Buffalo. A pub
lie meeting was held on the night of
Sept. 13. Fully 5000 persons were in
attendance.
Grand Master Hannahan. in conclud-
ing an address, called attention to the
fact that n New York newspaper had
criticised the President because he had
accepted an honorary membership in the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen.
Let me say" said Mr.. Hannahan, that
if the President of the United States or
any other of its citizens does nothing
worse than accept membership in this
organization he will neither merit the i'll
will nor deserve the censure of any of
his fellow-men. (Cheers.)
IF the rest of the public, and particu-
larry those who are intrusted with the
direction of our government and the
management of the nations greatest en-
terprises would do as the President and
meet us upon a common level, there
would be fewer strikes and less strife
and more Of peace and goodwill in the
industrial world"
What has the President done for
you" shouted an intoxicated man, who
stood near the stage door on the right.
What has the President done?" re-
peated Grand Master Mammalian. "The
President has proven to the organized
workingmen of this country that he has
an interest in their welfare by accepting
an honorary membership in an organiza-
ton of men whose faces are begrimed
by smoke and dust, and who daily and
hourly face the gravest dangers"
The monster audience burst into
deafening cheers. The tumult rolled
from wall to wall and back again. Men
stood up on the benches, wildly waving
| their hats and cheering for the Presi-

Finally it died down and some one in
| the audience shouted:
"Hurrah for Theodore Roosevelt"
And again the crowds burst into
cheers and when the second demonstra

nowhere to be seen.
| During the demonstration the men or
the stage sat silent and made no effort

TAMMANY "TAR WATER"
Will 1t Prove an cceptable Beverage
to Renpectable Democrats?

Judge Parkers "admonition," ad-
dressed to his waning supporters, in his
speech to the visiting editors, has in it,
the pathetic.
1t is little wonder that there are dis
sensions in the Democratic camp, as
staid gentlemen from the South, East
and West, men who have certain tradi-
tons of responsibility to reckon with,
find that their candidate is and always
has been cheek by jowl with David
Bennett Hill and hand in glove with
Tammany.
Judge Parker, recognizing the dangers
of his position, but unable to shake off
the political associates and methods by
which he has risen, pleads fervently for
'the elimination of personal, fractional
and unimportant differences involving no
surrender OF principle" Such elimina-
ton, he declares, lis essential to sue
cess"
But will the Democrats drink the
Tammany "tar waterY
There is something to be said-or
there WAS-in favor, even, of "tar
water" Bishop Berkeley in his famous
eulogy upon that old-fashioned but I'M
pleasant mixture declared: "IT IS OF
A NATURE so MILD AND BENIGN
AND PROPORTIONED TO THE
HUMAN CONSTITUTION AS TO
WARM WITHOUT HEATING, TO
CHEER BUT NOT INEBRIATE."
Still, tar water went out of fashion!

silent and disconsolate, she said:
