In the death of former Senator Hen

Of its most conspicuous, best and most
useful citizens. His whole life has
been one of marked activity in busi-
ness, religious and political work, and
in one or the other OF these lines he
has been known by almost everyone.
Though comparatively young in years
he crowded into his career number
of worthy acts that any Island man
might well feel proud of.

The murder of young Glennon at
Makaweli was a peculiar case The
fact that dynamite was used fixes he
crime upon Japanese, Chinaman
or a Porto Rican. Mr.. Glennon was
man who did not know what fear was,
and. being very strict in his dealing
with men under him, had won the ILL
will of the shiftless. This Is particu-
larly true of the Japanese, and he had
been warned repeatedly that the Jap
anese on the plantation intended doing
him up. For that and certain other
reasons we are inclined to believe that
the authorities are right in the pre-
sumption that Japanese committed the
terrible deed. No expense should be
spared in running down the murderer
or murderers. The $4,000 put up by
the people of Kauai should be aug
mented by an official reward. Some
body knows vino killed Glennon, and
two or three thousand dollars will
likely bring out the name or names of

1t is learned from Maui that Jim
Pratt sent a wireless to former Asses
sor Robinson, at Wailuku, to take
charge of the Tax Office by direction
of the Governor, and he received re-
ply that only on the authority of the
Treasurer, whom he recognized as his
chief, would he do so, but not on the
say-so of the Governor. This occurred
after the voidance of the County Act.
We think that it was very presumptu-
GUS OF Kimo Palaki, wherein he showed
his utter lack Of courtesy due to his be-
ing "palaka." And we also think that he
had no right, even If directed by the
Governor, to take charge of the tax
office here while the Treasurer, al
though absent for a few days, had dep
uties behind who could have attended
to any duty of the Treasurers in the
premises.

guilty in the United States Court here
to the charge of having presented
false and fraudulent claims and vouch-
ers to a United States officer for APP

Moore's Offense was committed more
than a year ago, and for months he
eluded the Federal officers charged
with his arrest, going to Mexico and
finally drifting to Colorado and Ne
braska. He was constantly pursued
by secret service men, and was finally
arrested at Omaha about year ago
and brought to this city, being re-
leased on bond Of $4,000 for his APP
pearance. The defendant, acc ompanied
by his brother, entered the court room
shortly after court convened. When
the case was called Moore stated that
he desired to plead guilty. He broke
down and cried when he confessed to
having prepared fraudulent state
ments, and claimed it was due to
drinking and gambling, and begged
the court for mercy. He was remand
