SHERIFF LANE TRAILS
REFORM SCHOOL BOYS
SILVA AND kAPELA WORK THEIR
WAY THROUGH koolAUloA
DISTRICT ON UPLAND
TRAILS.

Word was received from Koolauloa
this forenoon that two of the four boys
who made their escape from the Re-
form School Wednesday night are
making their way through the district
towards town. The boys. John Silva
and kapela, also called George Hawai-
pui, last night met some school boys.
from whom they enquired regard'ns
the location Of the police officers res.
licences. evidently for the purpose Of
giving them as wide a berth as pos.
sible. They got the desired informa.
ton and went on their journey. lu-
ma of the Laie plantation also saw the
boys last night.
Although Deputy Sheriff Richard
Lane of Koolauloa and his officers
kept watch for the boys all last night
the youthful fugitives managed to es'
cape their vigilance. They did so by
evading the Government road, which
trict, and runs quite close to the sea.
The boys worked their way mauka
through the lantana growths of kai
paupau. Hauula and MakaO, where
Sheriff Lane resides. From this place
a narrow and only littlc.used trail runs
through Kapaha. Koluanui and Puua
luu, where the mountains reach quite
close to the sea, forcing the boys t.
take the Government road to reach
kahana.
On this stretch of roads the boys
were observed, At II o'clock this
forenoon the boys were reported tc
have reached Kahana valley. Sheriff
Lane at that hour stated through 6
telephone message from Hauula cour'
house that he was going to start lmme
diately on the pursuit Of the boys
whom he now felt quite confident o.
experimenting.
Nothing has as yet been heard con
corning the whereabouts Of the two
other boys who escaped at the sam'
time IRON the Reform School.

Ex.SOldier Steals
TYPEWRITER
From Advertiser

Clinton Boyce. an ex.soldier, who ur.
rived from Manila In the transport
Sherman, did not enjoy long liberty In
the Paradise Of the Pacific. He was
locked up this forenoon on charge OF
larceny In the second degree.
II seems that last night between
$3.50 and 1880 O'Clock Boyce, walked
into the reporters Office of the Pacific
Commercial Advertiser. The weary
news.seekers were at that time absent
enjoying their dinners. Boyce saw his
opportunity and annexed a Peerless
typewriter from one OF the desks.
When the scribe to whom the use Of
the machine had been accorded re.
turned to the Office he discovered to
his terror that the saddle TO his Pc
gasus had disappeared. He Instantly
raised the alarm, the police were mott.
fed and all possible measures taken
to recover the missing property.
In the. meantime Boyce decided TO
convert the machine into more useful
cash, so he started on selling expc.
dition. He engaged young Hawaiian
boy, named Keluli, to carry the ma.
chine.
The evil genius of the unsuspecting
Boyce led him to the store of Pearson
& Potter, where he tried to dispose of
the typewriter. This firm had rcceiy.
ed notification from the Advertiser re.
garding the robbery. Word was con.
sequently sent from the store that the
machine had turned up. A few min,
utes later Detective Dan Renear made
his appearance. The Advertiser peo-
pie identified the machine as their
property. Renear arrested Boyce and
led him OF to durance vile.
Boyce is said To make no denial OF
the theft. He states that he served
for over two years as soldier In the
Philippines. He lost the use OF his
right arm, which was paralyzed, Sc
that he IL not able TO secure any en-
ployment. He stayed behind when the
Sherman left Honolulu because the
place seemed to suit him.

ulAR VOTE.
ISacramento Bec.l

A writer in the Worlds Work calls
attention to the fact that the two great
political parties in the United States
have for many years been nearly equal.
ly divided with respect to the popular
vote, however large a majority one or
the other may obtain in the Electoral
College. Thus he shows that n popular
majority of few hundred votes IN
such a large State as New York or
Pennsylvania may give large major.
ity OF Presidential Electors, while at
the same time the President elected
may be far short Of a majority Of the
popular vote. For instance, Lincoln, In
1860, received less than 40 per cent OF
the popular vote: in fact, the smallest
percentage by which any President was
ever elected. though his majority In
the Electoral College was large,
The following table illustrates the
changes in the popular vote, since the

TRUTH ABOUT TRUSTS

Two years after the passage of the
Sherman Act there were 1856 aggrega-
tions Of capital in the country prop.
erly deserving the name of trusts. To-
day by the showing OF John Moody, In
THE Truth About Trusts they have
increased to 40 in number. with n to-
tai floating capital of S20.379. 162.511.
Such has been the contrary influence
Of law designed for their suppress
sion. but In effect serving. by its non.
enforcement, to foster them.
The term trust" as defined by 8. G.
7. Dodd. the solicitor for the Standard
Oil Company. In its more confined
sense embraces only peculiar form
of business association effected by
stockholders OF different corporations
transferring their stocks to trustees"
The Standard OIL Trust was formed In
this way and originated the name a.
applied to associations OF capital.
But In It's wide use the term en-.
braces every "act, agreement and
combination of persons or capital be-
lieved TO be- done, made or formed
with the intent, power or tendency to
monopolizc business, 10 restrain or in
terfere with competitive trade or. to
fix. influence OF increase the price OF
commodities" Trusts OF the original
kind are now extinct.
The greater industrial trusts, OF
which there are seven--copper, linseed
oil. sugar. steel, tobacco, oil and
smelting--are represented by an az
gregatc of outstanding stocks and
bonds of a par value Of 1862, 752. 100.
OF this amount over one-half, or ST..
$40 100000, is included In the capital.
ization of the United States Steel Com.
pany and its subsidiary companies.
These greater industrial trusts have
all been organized since 1898, with the
one exception Of the Sugar Trust, and
all are incorporated under New Jersey
laws. They represent an aggregate
consolidation Of more than 1900 dis.
tinct plants.
II Is interesting to note that the mar
ket value of the securities of these
trusts Is about $i00,o0O,0O0 below
their par value. While In the matter
of par value the Morgan properties
comprise 60 per cent. of the total, yet
the distinctively Morgan interests rep.
resent but 81 per cent. OF the total mar.
ket value, the balance OF SO per cent
being represented by the remaining
five great trusts, which are all more
or less strongly dominated by tho
Rockefeller interests.
The lesser Industrial trusts, mum.
bering 29S and comprising consolida.
tons OF more than 3,i00 original
plants, have u total par value capitali-
cation Of i,055,039, 433. Thirteen ad.
dltional important industrial trusts
now undergoing reorganization or re-
adjustment and not included In this
list have total capitalization OF $685.
$4,000, OF the entire 31S active In.
dustrial trusts 10 are organized under
New Jersey laws. They have for the
most part come into existence since
1898.
The greater franchise consolida
tions, embracing telephone, telegraph.
gas. electric light and electric railway
companies, represent about 1886 orig
inal corporations and have an out
standing capitalization of 1926, 456,.
