He then accused the Rapid Transit
again of not dealing honestly with the
Territory going into the stock issues.
"Conhne yourself to the question of
speed" warned The President

Dickey said the question as 90 whe-

stock was "a question for the courts

The Rapid Transit had given this
community an admirable service, ser
vice that had earned the commenda-
ton of every visitor who had came TO
Honolulu.
He believed that the people of this
community wanted nothing 50 much as
a restoration Of that service. What this
bill gave, was not given to the Rapid
Transit. The power was given to the
officials of the government to regulate
speed, and if they found the speed linn
it dangerous, it was the government Of
ficials who could regulate it.
Achi pleaded for the passage of the
bill. The Rapid Transit, he said, was
a convenience to the poor men, and it
was to their interest to have the cars
run more quickly 50 that laborers could
get to their work more quickly. K.ch
men did not need the street cars. IT
was the poor, and this bill gave no fav-

running fast than by running slow, But

FERNANDEZ
ATTACKS ROWLAND

Fernandez moved the following reso-
luton:
THAT the House of Representatives
hereby express their total lack of con-
fidence in J. Hastings Rowland, assist
ant superintendent of supervising engi-
neer of the department of Public Works
of the Territory of Hawaii and hereby
demand that he be removed from Of
flee"
Fernandez made a severe attack on
Rowland and introduced a letter from
Rowland to Engineer Gere of Hilo in
which the poor work on the Paauhau
culverts was discussed.
| Fernandez turned to personal matters
and said that Rowland is in the habit
of getting drunk here in Honolulu fire.
/ quently and that he also got drunk
when he was away on the other islands.
The man was seen staggering about the
streets showing people about and acting
like a tough and it was impossible for
anyone to have confidence in him. He
! (Fernandez) had told the Governor that
Rowland was always getting drunk,
but the Governor said that though he
knew this Rowland got drunk only in
his own time, not in the government
time, and this was not sufficient cause
for removal. Fernandez contrasted this
with the manner i'm which the police
were treated, a policeman who went
into a saloon, even if he did not drink
was dismissed.
The House took its noon recess while
the resolution was under discussion.

master McKay's private office has
been moved to the north end OF

and money-order department. The
other windows also have been
changed. The new arrangement
leaves less lobby room than here
tofore, but this is not great loss.

Sewing Machines.

A sewing machine is perma-
nent and necessary fixture in your
home. it is not good business
judgement for person to buy the
first machine that is offered, just
because it may be pretty. In buy
ing a sewing machine it is most
important to get a GOOD ONE at
the lowest possible price. Let us
reason together. Henry L u 2
sells the Domestic, New Home and
several other standard makes of
sewing machines. He buys them
of the manufacturer for spot cash,
and can sell them from $40 to $lE
cheaper than agents going around
over the country. He is perma
nently located bere, has property
here, and has a we'll equipped ma
chine shop. He guarantees a
sewing machine when he sells il
to you, and is able to make goot
anything he says. Go and SET
his machines before you buy.

DON'T NEGLECT a COLD.
Neglected Colds Lead to Consumption.
How Consumption Develops.

Nine cases of consumption out OF ten
occur in this way:
A person catches cold. The cold is not
properly cured, and another cold is
caught.
This cold is dilly-dallied with, either
by no treatment whatever or some treat
mel that is Intellectual, and the cold
continues.
Then another cold 10 caught and
cough develops. Cough syrups are re-
sorted to, but they give only temporary
relief.
BY and by the patient gets tired OF
taking medicines and cough syrups and
gives up in despair.
The cold continues to develop and tle
cough grows worse.
Then the doctor is called in, only to
discover that tho patient is in the first
stages of consumption.
1t was just in this way that Miss
Powell, of Aurora, Ind, became sick.
She caught cold, and not considering
it serious, neglected it, thinking as
many others do, that would "wear off,"
However, it clung to her tenaciously,
and in two weeks she found her health
in o serious condition.
Fortunately, Peruna had been brought
to her notice, and she took course OF
this remedy before it was too late.
In o week the cough and cold were
broken, and three weeks treatment
completely restored her TO health.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
, while. Nota day, and probably not an
hour passes in which some one does not
have a similar experience with Peruna.
Cure the Slight Colds and Avoid
Consumption.
The first step toward consumption Ia
a cold. The next step is failure to cure
1t promptly. The third step is the de-
| velopment of catarrh, which gradually
becomes chronic. The fourth step, the
catarrh begins to spread from the head
to the throat, then to the bronchial
tubes, and finally into the lungs. 1t Ii
then consumption in the first stage.
| tany time during the progress Of ca
- tarrh, from the first onset of the cold tt
its final settlement in the lungs, Perun'
s can be relied upon to stop the disease
If YOU have taken a cold, buy Peruni
- without delay. One bottle in the be
ginning will do more good than hal
l dozen bottles after the catarrh ha
fastened itself on the lungs.

THE LATE SECRETARY HAY.

From Topeka Capital
Tributes paid to the memory Of the
late Secretary Hay in all the capitals
OF the world, including those Of Asia
testify to the fact that a great man
has passed away in his unexpected
death yesterday morning. The United
States has had many eminent secre-
taTies OF state. among them Jefferson,
Madison, John Quincy Adams, Web
ster, Clay, Marcy, Seward, FreIing-
huysen, Blaine, Evarts, Immediately
occur to memory, all great names in
American history, but none whose
diplomatic achievements shine with
a brighter Iustre than those Of John
Hay. Mr.. Hays diplomacy reached
out over a wider field Of international
affairs than any Of his predecessors
had to deal with. His service in the
cabinets Of Mckinley and Roosevelt
made q brilliant chapter OF Ameri-
can diplomatic history, punctuated by
a series Of triumphs which the world
was prompt tofully recognize Prac-
teal, tangible results OF the sort that
make history marked his career as
secretary OF state, the net outcome OF
which was to establish this nation in
a commanding position among the
world powers 1t is to the everlasting
credit Of Mr. Hay that his efforts were
for peace and fair dealing by great
powers in their relations with weaker
peoples. II China is as grateful as it
should be, its people will long hold
his name in reverence, for it is more
due TO him than TO any other infiu-
ence that the Chinese empire is in
tact today instead OF a vassal Of Eu-
rope, the best part Of its territory di-
vided among the greedy western pow
ers.
Mr.. Hay is said to have been a law
yer Of more than ordinary ability. He
was certainly a charming public
speaker, his Grafton at the opening
Of the St Louis worlds fair and his
Mckinley memorial grafton being
among the classics Of American elO-
Quence- He was a commanding figure
in the last eight years, and it will
be long before the place that he filed
at the head Of the cabinet table will
be occupied by a man who will give
II as worldwide distinction as was
given It by John Hay.
