The Schmidlap trial resulted in
hung jury. 1t was to be as
sumed that the woman would go
free without much effort, but it
now seems as if there was a trifle
more premeditation about the
killing of her husband than aP-
peared in the first reports. Per-
sonally we shall always feel that
a woman who kills her husband
for advising her to follow life of
shame, should be given a clean
bill of health as soon as the fact
is established, and we don't care
whether the killing is premedi-
tatee ,r not. The fact that she
con-. -ered the matter before un-
limbering her artillery merely
shows lack of ability to decide an
important question readily. Many
persons are unable to make de-
cision with that promptitude that
the occasion demands.

In our opinion the craze about
dry farming now going on is con-
siderable of fake. Every agri-
culturalist has known for years
that by careful cultivation the
moisture in the soil could be, to a
great extent, conserved. But we
do not believe that it can be so
successfully done as to get crops
year after year with certainty
even in droughty seasons. Care
full cultivation will do wonders in
a region where water is short. but
will not be successful in locality
where it is impossible to get any
Water is necessary to the raising
of good crops.

THERE can be no better evil
dence of the fact that the rail-
roads are preparing for a gigantic
battle in the next few years, than
the open effort to elect senators
who favor the corporations. Here
in Colorado it is announced that
Mr.. Vale, one of the most promin-
ent railroad attorneys in the state,
will be a formidable candidate
for that position to succeed Sena-
tor Patterson. The President has
undoubtedly stirred up the wild
animals and there will be things
doing in congress from now on.

In last weeks Booster we OBJ
serve that the Missouri Pacific
railroad is making great efforts to
satisfy the patrons of that PoPu-

way of service. Among other
luxuries in the way of equipments
mention is made of Cats equip
ped with electric lights and fans. =
We shall certainly try to make
our next eastern trip over this
line. We want to see how they
work.

WHILE so much is being said by
certain of the county commission
ers regarding being held up in the
past on printing tax lists, their
talk being purely an attempt to
excuse themselves for giving out
the present list to their chairman's
paper without the formality OF in
curing if anyone else would do 1t
tor less, it becomes. very interest
ing to note that the official figures
for the last three years together
with the paper printing the list is
as follows:

the commissioners paper has
done the worst job of it and
charged the most for it. The
story will not go. The people
are on, and just one year later
they will get Mr.. Gets hair.

The reduction of the taxes

THE July bulletin of the U 5.
bureau of labor shows that while

that the purchasing power OF

have under your system, Mr.. So
cialist. You would have him get
the entire product of his labor
but what is that to the man un-
able to intelligently direct his
energies? And, how many of the
people are able to intelligently
direct their energies7 Not many
if you consult the record of those
who toll for themselves and those
who sell their energy to others. ga
Our pro, est against socialism
is not that it goes too far. but
that it does not go far enough to
materially reduce any existing
evils. You tender a pink pill
where about half teacupful OF
EPSON salts are needed. a-
Talk glibly about wages" says
the Appeal. Well. we should
twitter! And who disturbs more
atmosphere talking about wages
than the socialists? And take
the line, suppose you make the
full social product of mans
labor the base, and what have
you got? A condition under
which the man of superior in
telligence will not buy labor and
no means by which to direct those
who cannot prohtably direct them
selves.
We are not writing to impress
the editor of the Appeal. We are
endeavoring to disillusionize some
local and intelligent socialists
from regarding this plaything
socialism as a cure-all for the
disease that at present aftiicts
the race.
If you are seeking an anchor
ant then start for a graduated in
come tax laid upon all incomes
above $4,000 and shaded up till at
the $4,000 mark it becomes con-
hscation. That will effectually
stop people from getting rich ii
that is what you are after.
If you are after remedy. some
thing that will produce an opera
ton, start right: Take note that
men come into the world with no
volition of their own. That God
put the means of living for every
creature in the world before he
made any creatures. That men
are not equal in ability to secure
living. That it is the highest
duty of the government to pro
tect the weak. That the babe in
its cradle is as much entitled to
its pro rata OF everything pro-
duced as the ablest citizen who
valiantly serves his country in
any capacity.
We establish a protectorate
over weak nations. Why we do
not establish a protection over
weak citizenship without waiting
for the weakness to develop into
total idiocy is one of those things
we have never been able 10 under
stand. lt..
The need of such protection is
absolutely proved by the growing
ranks of the socialist party.

REASONABLE WAGES.


our socialist friends. Some
months ago one OF our townsmen
in moment of charitable thought
ordered the Appeal to Reason
sent to this office. We have read
it with. some interest and the
other day the doner called to con-
fess his fault. In the course OF
our conversation we talked about
the result of the adoption of the
socialist idea, and we tried to ex-
plain why socialism is but one of
those attempts, always being agi-
tated to improve conditions, and
always futile for results. Now in
this weeks Appeal we find this
item that splendidly serves to
illustrate that socialism is but a
reduced form of present day
ethics. The article is herewith
reproduced:
Men talk glibly of low wages
and high wages. What is low
wages and what is high wages! !!
Is $40 a week low wages and $50
week high wages? Hardly. If
$50 week is high wages, how
does it appear as compared with
500 a week? And there are men
getting 500 a week. 1t $40 a
week Is low wages, how does 1t
look as compared to 50 week /?
And the Lord knows there are
thousands upon thousands who
get no more than So a week
Seems to me we must have some
base to figure from if we are to
nationally and intelligently dis
cuss this matter OF low or high
wages. Suppose we make the
full social product of a mans
labor the base7 1t is easy then
to understand the terms low
wages and high wages-when a
man gets less than the full pro-
duct OF his labor | should say he
was getting low wages, and when
he gets more than the full social
product OF his labor his wages
might be termed high. Figured
from such a basis it is easy to see
that the wages of the working
class are always low wages.-Ap-
peal to Reason.
Now, my social friend, let us
reason with you little: The
chief tenet of socialism is to give
to the laborer all that he pro
duces. In other words, make abil-
| ity to get there the sole guide to
mans prosperity. Has not that
theory brought about present
conditions? Why make a mans
ability to produce the guide to
what he shall get? If you really
mean business, If you really favor
the brotherhood of man idea, you
must go deeper than the compel
tive system. The rule of nature,
the survival of the httest, has not
been materially changed during
the existence of man from prim-
eval times. We simply take by
so-called legal means that which
our progenitors took by force OF
arms. You advocate palliative
where intelligence suggests a
drastic remedy.
| Men are suffering because the
economic juggernaut is crushing
them, shrieks the socialist. Sug-
gest remedy. replies society, and
the Appeal to Reason says stop
the juggernaut and run him under
freight train instead. But says
the man who is still skeptical,
why torture him at all. Why not
recognize that all men are not
equally strong either mentally or
physically!

cold mercies of the world, the law

CIvILITY IN THE SCHOOLS.

Editor Advertiser: I notice that the
Advertiser advocates a mild system of
religious education in the public
schools. What is very much more need
ed, is a thorough education in COM
mon civility, quality with which the
average Honolulu young person seems
to be wholly unacquainted. What an
advantage it would have been to all
concerned, if the entire lot had been
born and reared in heather" Japan.
A word for the much maligned mis-
sionaries. 1 have. no sympathy with
foreign missions, but for many of the
old missionary fathers and mothers, I
have the greatest respect They did
bravely, according to their faith, and
I am confident it was no fault of theirs
that some of their descendants have
fallen into the ways of the smart set
and the hoodlum.
L can not give my name and have
this published for 1 should be power
less to protect myself from the abuse
I would be sure to get.

white and blue. aud red. white ann
green. are the decorating c0lors for
the city Of FL ,Paso when the Ameri-
can Mining Congress meets here for
a weeks session. beginning November
ID.
The colors represent the flags of
the United States and Mexico, and,
with FL Paso on the border and the
congress practically an international
gathering. since Mexico will send
hundreds of delegates. the colors are
considered appropriate.
The committee on decoration has
decided that as far as possible only
the flags of the two countries shall
be used, hut where 1t is necessary TO
carry out the effect in draping. bunt-
ing OF these colors will be permitted.
Already Ell Paso presents a gala ap-
pearance In Its decoration combining
the colors and shields Of two great re.
publics. and. with the city illuminated
at night, the effect will be very pret-
ty as well as unique, for It IS the Only
e.'y in the United St4'es where a
foreign flag floats as freely as the
national flag. This is no reflection on
The American patriotism of the FL
Pasoans, but is only courtesy to a
sisted republic with which the cityis
SO closely allied in trade and social re-
lations.

REPORTED JAP REVOLT

Chicago, Nov. 11.--A dispatch to

Japan IL now threatened by revolt,
according to the report current In
Washington last night. Minister
Takahira regards the report as rid
iculous, but in other circles there is q
disposition to credit It. The report
says the garrison at Kobe had re-
volted.
The Japanese legation asserts there
is no garrison at Kobe. At Osaka,
however. which is only few miles
away, 10000 men are stationed.
